Hi guys, I realized that it's been over half a year since my last update. Sorry for the wait! I just found some time to go over my draft for this chapter and next chapter. I didn't know what to write about, so I kind of took a long break from my fanfics.

Thank you for your reviews and your support! I received a lot of them!

Please continue to review!

Chapter 2

Again!?

Tokyo, Japan

Yuri P.O.V

"Arg! I'm late again!" I shouted while trying to clear a path as fast as I could through the pile of clothes. After having thrown away every single thing that was in my way for a dozen of minutes, I finally found what I was searching for. The glowing sapphire coloured necklace is now sparkling on my hands, catching the Sun's ray.

"I don't know what I'll do without you, old friend." I said, looking at it as memories flowed into my head. The memory of them being sad wouldn't leave my mind in peace even after those sixteen long years. I can't help thinking that they were not aware of my reincarnation and continuing to act as I was dead. I guess I am since I could no longer go back to them. During the past ten years, I tried every possible way to travel back in the other world, but no matter how I try, nothing happened (By trying I meant dumping myself in bathtubs, rivers, lakes, pools, sea, etc.). The only result I got after almost being drown was a scold from my dad for being reckless and a temporary prohibition to go near big sources of water…=_=||…

Without losing anymore time, I took the jewel and my school bag, and run for the kitchen. Even if there's not a lot of time left, I still wish to take a piece of bread before going to school.

"I wonder when I can get rid of my bad habit for being late…" I asked myself while I was running toward downstairs. "Kyoko's gonna kill me…She is so scary when she's mad." Anyway, I just have to be there the fastest I can. I guess she would understand, at least I hope.

During all those years of hard times, Kyoko was the only one who stands by my side, not because I am not sociable or anything, it's because she is the only one who can understand me. If people ask me about my relation with her, I can only answer a life trust friend. Sometimes, she can be really hard to understand, but everything she do is for your own good. Also, if she wants to keep something secret, you can be sure that she wouldn't let you know until when she wants you to know. After a life long experience, I have learned to just wait she tells me or I will rather find out by myself the secret she is holding.

(I guess that some have probably guessed the other identity of Kyoko through my description. Yes, she is the reincarnation of Murata Ken. With this, I think I should thank the gods that I didn't became a girl like he did. )

Also, another coincidence (or fate…), I was reborn into my family, but since my mum was already too old to be my parent, I became the son of my own brother, Shori. That was quite shocking when I first learned about it. Imagine a newborn baby opens his eyes to make acquaintance of his new parents and see the face of his brother.

I don't know if I should be happy to be with my family again or desperate because I became my own nephew especially when I was given my old name.

Sometimes, when the family gathers together, some details make me wonder if they knew that it was me. They never seem to question my weird habits or my actions. Or they are just really blunt. (author Bluemoonyue =_= : No, you're the one who is blunt…)

Anyway, I finally arrived at my destination. The park where I got caught for trying jumping in the water too much… and I see Kyoko standing beside the fountain, smiling… Another thing that I forgot to mention is that after her rebirth as a girl, it seemed that Kyoko somehow became even more scaring than before.

"Shibuya, it seems that you are really busy today to arrive that late. Ne?" She asked gently while smiling.

"Ehm…Not, not really?" I think I sweated a lot when I answered her.

"… Mou, never mind. Look how scared you are. Let's go over the pound, I need to talk to you." And she led us to walk towards the pound. I really wanted to scream that it was because of her that I am scared! But I knew better than to play with fire, so I let it go.

Once again, here we are by the pound. Even after twenty years, the scenery here didn't seemed to have changed. I remember how Murata used to push me into the water without noticing me after we defeated Soushu.

"Shibuya, do you still thinks about the other side? About going back to Shin Makoku?" She suddenly asked me after a long silence.

"Of course, because so many bonds and memories were created, how can I just let them go? Everyday, I can't help but to think how everyone are doing over there. Have they move on? Have Greta became a great queen? Have everyone been living in peace since the battle? " After a short pause, I couldn't help myself but to continue. "However, can we really go back? After all of these years of trying, I wonder if we are blocked on this side? I wonder if the portal was closed after I died."

"Do you want to go back, Shibuya? This is the true question and not how." sighed Kyoko.

"You ask if I want to go back, but of course I want!"

"Then why not try again? We never know what can happen at this point." As she finished her sentence, she started to approach me slowly.

"Haa? What are you talking about? Ehhh…Wait, why are you approaching with such a freaky face? Wait, Ky..!..."

Before I could finish talking, Kyoko came and push me in the pound behind me. I can feel the coldness of the water surrounding me, calming my soul from my worries. Then…WHY do I feel attracted by the depth of the water? WHY no matter how I tried it never worked!? And NOW, WHY does the gate to the other dimension opens after Kyoko pushed me like always?! And why does this scene looks so familiar?!

After a while, when I finally stopped spinning in the water, I felt a shock as the water gradually stop moving as if I hit on something…
