Star: Update! I am a bit behind, but I will make up for it! Maybe through out this week and next to catch up, since i'm still behind by two weeks. Also, as for the other shugo chara characters i am planning on placing them in the story. Maybe... I'm not completely sure yet, unless you guys want to, then I can make it work some how, but Ikuto will appear in this story in later chapters at some point. Anyway I don't own Shugo chara! Now on to the story!

Previously:

"Cool n' Spicy Amu Hinamori...hm... suits her well doesnt it?" a student near her said and Amu gave out a mental sigh 'here we go again...' she thought and sat down at her desk as the teacher began the class.

Amu's P.O.V~

The bell rang for lunch as I gave out a sigh. So far I've survived half of my classes at least. But rumors are still going around. What's with everyone and rumors? Can't one just try to know the person instead of listening to rumors? I shook my head slightly as I finish packing up and headed towards the cafeteria. Once I got there, there was quite a long line for lunch. I gave out another sigh as I waited in line. Once I got my lunch, I started to look around for a place to stay. I saw an empty table around the corner of the cafeteria. I sat down and began to eat slowly looking around the cafeteria. It's not like I have anything better to do. I continued to look around and noticed people talking here and there; some were even glancing at me. I'm guessing rumors got through again.. At this rate I doubt I'll find people to call 'friends'. I gave out another sigh. And to think the first day at a new school would be easy. I soon started to doze off continuing to eat for the rest of the period.

"Hiya!" I heard someone say, snapping me back into reality. I blink a few times and noticed a face in front of me a bit close, as I look into emerald green eyes. It wasnt till a second later I reacted startled. Falling back from my seat and onto the floor. I soon heard laughter by a few kids. Yup, so much for the first day of school being easy. " I'm sorry, I didnt mean to startle you". I heard the same voice say as I stood back up, dusting myself off, glaring a bit at the people laughing who soon stopped and went back to their own conversations. Hopefully not about me. Geez, now I'm back to worrying about what people think of me. Oh right, because I'm back to 'Cool n' Spicy Hinamori Amu'. I shook the thoughts away and answered the person.

"It's alright" I said and noticed the appearance of the person in front of me. It was a girl actually, who startle me apparently. She had Emerald green eyes and purple hair tied up in to lower ponytails. She also wore the girls school uniform.

"Thats great, sorry for the sudden appearance" she said smiling sheepishly while rubbing the back of her head. I gave a small smile along with a nod. " Anyway, my name's Kiara Yuizaki. Nice to meet you!" She said cheerfully with a huge smile. "What's yours?" She ask curiously jumping a bit. She reminded me of Yaya with her cheerful expression and how energetic she was.

"Amu Hinamori. Nice to meet cha'." I said in the same tone I've been using. I sat back on my seat with Kiara sitting in front of me with a smile. I just looked at her curiously.

"So you're the new student everyone's been talking about" she noted. So she knows me by rumors apparently. Great. "So you're a sophomore right?" She questioned. I nodded.

"What about you?" I ask.

"I'm a freshman so this is my first year in the school, so I guess you can say we're on the same boat, except... well I've been here for a few months now, after all it is only November." I gave another nod. And soon she started rambling on and on about things and asking questions here and there.

"I was really surprised though" she suddenly started into another subject after I came back from throwing my lunch away. "Usually I sit on this table alone... so I was surprised when I saw you. It made me quite happy to see someone there. Even if you were the new student and all, I end up getting the courage to speak to someone!" She said cheerfully. This got me wondering.

"You don't have friends?" I asked and she gave out a nervous smile.

"No actually, you see I was nervous that people might not like me for me, so it was a bit hard through the beginning of the year. And I do know some people, but I dont think I'll actually consider them as friends...I mean they're only classmates...and well I guess you get the idea right?" She ask and I gave out a small nod. But I wonder... A cheerful and talkative person like her? she seems like she could make friends easily. Oh well, it's her choice though really. The rest of the period went by fast as I continued to talk with Kiara. "So what do you have next?" She asked. This girl sure does ask a lot of questions. I look at my schedule for my next period class.

"I have gym" I answered and soon she smiled.

"Really?!" She asked and I nodded. "that means we have gym together!" She exclaimed.

"Oh .." I said understanding her excitement now. Both of us headed to gym and soon after changing, the class began once all students were present.

The day went by fast, that's for sure. I had fun though. Well, for the final half of the day, of course. I found out I have both first and last period with Blade. And had Lunch and Gym with Kiara. I'm still not sure about them though. I gave out a sigh. By now I was already coming out of the school building when I heard someone call my name. I turn to see Kiara running up to me. Once she caught up she gave out a huge smile. " I finally caught up to you." She said and I looked at her curiously as to why she would want to catch up to me. "Oh, do you want to walk home together?" She wondered once she notice my expression.

"Uh, sure I guess?" I answered, although it came out more like a question. She looked at me curiously. "Uh, well I'm going to meet up with someone at a park near here", I said remembering what Ren told me. Really though I can walk back home on my own, he doesnt have to worry.

"Ah! Alright! I have to take another path anyway once arriving there, so until then we can walk together." She said and I gave a small nod. Definitely such a cheerful girl. Soon both of us were walking home together and talking along the way. Well, mainly Kiara did all the talking. I continued with my same old outer character on. After all, I already planned somethings out after all with this. I guess I can figure out the people who tend to listen about rumors. So far Kiara heard some from what she told me, but she said that she doesn't believe what others say, after all only gossip comes from it. I'm glad that she doesn't focus on those things. But then again, she can also be using an outer character her self. Ugh, I think my head is starting to hurt again with all this thinking. I really should stop over thinking things. "Ah! Amu wait!" I heard Kiara say as she stop and looked at a store. I walked back to see what she was looking at, only to find out it was a ice cream shop. Before I knew it she dashed inside and later came out with an ice cream at hand, licking it. She resembles Yaya more and more. And I just met her in a day too. We finally reached the park. I went into the park to get to the other side, while saying good bye to Kiara who went another direction. Once I finally reached the other side, I sat on a nearby bench and waited for Ren to come. And once more, I was back into dozing off and thinking on about today.

Four... was the first thing that came to mind. Four. Four People I have to find. Four of them. I just wonder who could they be. Ran and the others did say it depended on me. To find them on my own and choose the ones to fight along my side. To defeat A and her gang. I still wonder what I have done for them to come after me. I gave out a sigh. How many times have I sighed throughout the day this time? I've been thinking so negatively about things lately. It's really making me feel more hopeless about the situation I'm in. At this rate, I dont think I'll be able to go back home without being threaten. My thoughts were cut off when I started to feel something. Not physically, but a sort of presence. It felt dark..evil.. what is this? I looked around to see if I can find any clues to this sensation. But nothing. Everything looked and seemed normal. So what's with this uneasy feeling that something evil is near? Then again, I've been thinking so negatively that it must be affecting me like this. As I was about to dismiss this thought, I heard a crash. I look around the park until I heard screams. I went to the directions of the scream only to see someone in a black cloak there. It was definitely either A or one of her friends. I hid behind some trees so that the person wouldn't see me. After all, they might know I'm here, but maybe not the fact that I changed my appearance. I noticed that it was facing a certain way and shifted my eyes to a person in a white cloak trying to stand up. That's the same person or one of the four people in white cloaks that appeared in my dream.

"Don't you think I'll give up!" I heard the person say. It's voice sounded like it belong to a girl. I guess I know the gender.

"Heh. Look here, I can do whatever I want, so don't think just because you want to be the hero I'll surrender." The person in the black coat said. That voice, it sounded like M! Damn, I really wish I knew their real names instead of their initials.

"Well, I won't give up either. I wont let you get away with turning inoccent children's dreams into nightmares!" The girl in white said. Wait, turn children's dreams into nightmares? What does she mean by that? I wondered as I continued to watch the scene before me.

"Oh but I have every right to turn them into nightmares." M said as I noticed an egg floating near her. Wait, I'm still able to see them? Well that's good I guess. I noticed something about the egg. Though it was completely different from an X-egg and a ?-egg it was a dark red egg, and it had a sort of figure on it. But from where I was, I wasn't able to see what the figure is. "Just like this one." I heard M say as she lifted her hand, the egg resting on her hand. " I'm able to control them. To control these wonderful nightmares of these children, to control these nightmary eggs to my pleasure."

"I wont let you continue with this! I won't let you use children's dreams against them!" The other girl responded.

"Heh, even if I don't use children's dreams, I can still use it from adults. It won't matter. As long as I'm able to take what I want, I'll be satisfied. And even if you do manage to defeat me, you're not able to turn these Nightmaries back into the dreams of their owners. As long as fear is around, nightmares will exist. Heh and then the whole world will be covered with these wonderful nightmares." M spoke, just as the girl launched foward trying to land an attack on her. "Tch, listen when someone's talking to you" M said; dodging the attack.

"Like I would like to hear that. I may not have the power to turn them back into dreams, but their will be someone who will."

"Heh, it seems like you dont know the power of a nightmary. Let me show you." M said as she lifted her hand up into the sky with the egg in hand. A red aura started to appear around it. "Master of darkness, master of fear, terror and nightmares come forth and bring out the nightmare within this dream!" M shouted as the egg grew bigger and cracks appeared around it. It soon opened; revealing a sort of giant spider. I felt shivers. Never once have I liked insects, and this one is no execption. Especially in its size. "Heh, since this is originally a fear a child had, it's quite powerful enough to defeat a rookie like you." Before I knew it, the fight began. I continued to watch of course, that was the only thing I could do. I can't go in there when I'm completely useless. I'm sure I'll be killed the second M finds out who I am, despise my appearance. I did pay attention enough to know about what's going on. Not with much luck, only thing mentioned and being continuously mentioned, was that Nightmary egg. The fight ended with the girl in the white cloak winning and with M leaving quite pissed off. But the nightmary turn back into an egg to my surprise, since normally X-eggs wouldn't. But then again, it's not an X-egg. The egg then left also. I'm guessing it won't go back to its owner. I wonder what will happen. Everything turned back to normal. That was the good part. I went back to where I was suppose to meet Ren, with new thoughts in mind of course.

After being scolded by Ren for a while who got mad that I wasn't there when he arrived, but soon let it go and both of us headed home. Curiousity still in mind, wondering of the new things I'll end up learning aside from finding those four. I guess only time will tell what my future holds...
