Very few have heard of his return and the ones who have know better than to say anything.

[MischievousFoxxAdministrator]

Haruka appeared in front of the vampire castle with her best friend. She looked around for a moment. "I wonder why we had to come so early? It seems like everyone would be asleep." She looked up at Katsuo and smiled. "Come on. Let's go see if we can find Hideaki," she said and turned as she jogged up the stairs towards the castle.

"Don't complain and just follow orders," Katsuo said as he looked down at Haruka. He nodded and began following her inside, looking around with his eyes. 'I've never been to this kingdom before. Definately has a slight...gloomyness to it...' He followed her into the throne room and crossed his arms as he leaned up against the wall and closed his eyes.

Haruka smiled as she ran over to Hideaki, a little surprised that he was already awake so early in the morning. "Hi Aki-kun! You sure are up early. Nervous about tomorrow?" She teased and giggled a little.

Hideaki looked up from writing in his book when he heard a familiar voice. "Oh, Haru. I almost didn't reconize you. You sure have grown up over the years." He smiled as he stood up and set down his things on the throne. He blushed a little to her teasing comment and sighed. "A little. But I think that happens to everyone who gets married." He slid his hands into his pockets as he smiled. "I assume your mother is going to be here today as well?"

Haruka giggled again and nodded to his question. "Yeah. I'll pick her up later along with everyone else. When are Yuko and her family going to be here?" She asked curiously as she held her hands behind her back.

"Sometime this evening. You should go say hi to Hikaru. I'm sure he'd like to see you again. But be careful. He tends to be in a bad mood when he gets woken up," Hideaki suggested and glanced over at Katsuo. 'Who is that? He seems familiar. Must be Haruka's guard or something.'

Haruka closed her eyes and smiled with a nod. "Alright. I think I will!" She turned and ran over to Katsuo, taking his hand. "I'm sure he'd like to see you again Suo-kun!" She turned and began dragging him up the stairs. She smirked when they got to Hikaru's room and teleported both of them inside. "HI HIKA...ru..." Her face turned bright red as she quickly covered her eyes and stumbled back. "OH DEAR GOD!" She yelled teleporting out of the room and slamming into the wall across from his room.

Katsuo sighed as he was forced to follow her and wasn't surprised when she teleported them into the room without permission. He was a little surprised when he saw that Hikaru was naked and got a little annoyed when she left without him again. He sighed, putting his hand on his head and closed his eyes. 'Does she always have to drag me around and just leave me behind like that?'

_______________________________________________________________

Shuichi sighed and rubbed his head as he walked out the back of his workplace. "I really hate working night shifts. It seems like I never get enough sleep," he said as he covered his mouth and yawned and closed his eyes. He looked up towards the sky as he slid one hand into his jacket pocket. 'Suzu should be off to school here soon. Maybe Minami will come and wake me up again,' he thought as a few perverted images came to mind. As he got up to his apartment, he pulled his keys out and unlocked the door. He walked in and closed the door behind him, leaving it unlocked just in case. He walked into his room and took his jacket and shoes off. 'I can at least try to get a little sleep before I go see her.' He laid down on his bed and pulled the covers over him with another yawn. He laid there, spacing out for a moment before closing his eyes and soon falling asleep.

_______________________________________________________________

Suzume came out of her room and grabbed her backpack. "I'm off to school mom!" She called out as she ran over to the door and put her shoes on. She got up and ran out the door and started heading for school. She closed her eyes and smiled. "I can't believe Aki-kun is getting married. Took him long enough to ask her." She giggled a little as she slowed down and started skipping. 'And we get to spend the night in the castle. I can't wait to see everyone.'

_______________________________________________________________

Kazuo walked with his sister down the hall with a bored expression on his face. He then began to think of something they could do and turned to his twin with an evil grin. "Let's go wake up Tatsuya!" He took his sister's hand and began phazing through the walls to get there faster. When they reached Tatsuya's room, he put his finger to his lips to tell Mayumi to be quiet. He walked over quietly and got close to his brother's ear, trying to hold in his laughter. He took a deep breath, then screamed into his ear. "WAAAKE UP!!"

Mayumi looked at her brother curiously, then giggled a little to his suggestion. She followed him and as they reached Tatsuya's room, she nodded and pretended to zip her mouth shut. She watched as her twin went over to one side and she creeped over to the other. "GOOOOD MORNING!!" She screamed into his other ear.

_______________________________________________________________

Itsuko watched as her daughter teleported away. She stood up and walked over to the window, holding her hands behind her back as she stared out at the horizon. 'Hopefully we wont have any problems with Tatsuya this time. It's been five years. I guess all I can do is hope...' She breathed a sigh, then turned her head over to the door when she heard a knock. "Come in," she said as she turned and sat back down in her chair, crossing her legs as she waited for them to come in.

_______________________________________________________________

Alexander leaned back against the wall, not too far from the castle with his hands behind his head. He looked up at the sky. 'Does he really have to keep me waiting? It would be nice to go get him myself.' He sighed, closing his eyes. He dropped his arms to his sides as he got up, brushing some dirt off of him. "Fuck it. I don't care if she gets mad." He slid his hands into his pockets and began heading towards the castle, a part of him hoping to meet up with his nephew halfway to avoid Ayane yelling at him.

_______________________________________________________________

Hisao covered his mouth as he yawned, looking over at the clock. He rolled over and turned the alarm off with a sigh. He then realized that he hadn't heard it going off for a while and kind of had an annoyed look. 'I was supposed to go with Haruka and Katsuo. Guess it's too late now.' He yawned again as he sat up, stretching his arms above his head. He got up and got dressed. "I really don't know why I have to go to this wedding, but it'll be nice to see Alex again I guess." He rubbed his head as he walked out of his room and headed out to see Itsuko and apologize for oversleeping.

_______________________________________________________________

Kamiko rolled over and cuddled up to her husband as she smiled. She placed her hands on his cheek and gave him a quick kiss. "Good morning sweetie. Time to wake up..." She couldn't help but giggle when she heard yelling coming from down the hall. "Sounds like the twins are already awake. And it sounds like they decided to wake up their brother again."

_______________________________________________________________

Naoki rubbed her head as she grabbed a cup of coffee and walked over to the couch, sitting down. "Arisu! Get up already!" She called as she flipped on the tv and began flipping through channels. She stopped on the news. 'Nothing really interesting on.' She took a sip of her drink and set it down on the table. She glanced over her shoulder again when she heard the bedroom door open and smiled at Arisu.

[Tails the Fox]

Ayane heard the front door open and close, knowing who it was she didn't think to much of it as she finished preparing breakfast. She walked outto the throne room and watched as Haruka and Katsuorun up the stairs as she dried her hands with a smile. She turned to her son and walked towards himasking sarcastically, "Lively as ever that Haru-chan, isn't she?" She giggled and sat in her throne. "Haaaaa..." She sighed as she looked over at Hideaki's things. "I see you're still messing around with that stuff. Just as long as you don't do anymore damage with it, I'm fine with it." She smiled and closed her eyes in deep thought. "So how has your father been? I know you've been to see him."

Hikaru was rolling around in hios bed a little bit as he slept and uncovered himself as he laid flat on his by accident and he was sleeping. He kind of woke up when he heard footsteps in his room and as he began to open his eyes he heard a girl scream out and a slam outside of his room. He chuckled and opened his eyes, rubbing them as he sat up. "Just like her father." He said then noticed Katsuo was standing there. He got up and walked over to him. "My oh my..." He began to say as he looked Katsuo up and down. "... You have grown into a most handsome young man, Katsuo. Mind if I take a few minutes of your spare time releave some of the stress that seems to be around you?" He said flirtatiously with some sexual temptation in his eyes.

___________________________________________________________________

"Alright hun..." Minami called back in a drozy voice as as slowly woke up. "Geez... Hehe, kid needs to learn when to be quiet." She said to herself as she stretched and yawned. She got up and went to the kitchen, searching for something to eat. "Nothing..." She said with a little whimper. "Maybe on my way to Shu-kun's I'll pick up groceries. Besides, I needed to anyways for our 'big morning." So she got dressed and headed out to the market.

___________________________________________________________________

Tatsuya was in a deep sleep as he laid on his back, drooling on his pillow and snoring. Until his little siblings decided to wake him up rudely, as usual, and he jumped out of his skin as he phased through his bed yelling at the top of his lungs, "Holly hell!" He landed on the floor of the room under his and growl under his breath and he whispered to himself, "Those little pieces of shit! They're dead." He shot up and flew back up to his room and glared at Kazuo and Mayumi. He snarled and flew at them.

Rokuzai smiled when he felt Kamiko roll over and cuddle with him. He groaned when she told him to her up and said, "Do I have to? I am the king after all. It's not like I have anything really important to do today." He chuckled at the same time that his queen did when both of them heard the twins walk up Tatsuya. "Oh boy. He's not going to be in a good mood today at all." He chuckled some more than sat up. "Uugghh... Why does my daughter have to get married to some tech geek?" He teased as he rubbed the back of his head.

Yuko was taking a long, nice, relaxing hot shower to calm her nerves for what was coming. 'I can't believe I am getting married.' She giggled and rinsed off the soap from her body. As she turned off the shower and stepped out she heard the twins scream and shook her head. "I am so glad that they don't do that to me." She said with a sigh and a giggle. She stepped out of her bathroom in just a towel and walked over to her closet, dropping her towel in the process as she looked for what she should wear. She reached into the closet and pulled out the second niced looking dress that she had and got herself clothed. After she was done with that she walked out into the hall and almost got ran over by her younger siblings. She took a step out of her room and watched as they ran into a nearby room. She jumped when she Tatsuya phased thought her and got the shivers from the feeling of being phased through. "You really need to stop that, ya know!" She yelled out to him but knew she wasn't going to get a response and turned around, heading down to the throne room.

___________________________________________________________________

Kioshi yawned as he turned a corner and notivced Hisao walking out of his room and smiled. He ran up to him and placed his arm around Hisao's shoulders with a friendly smile. "What's up Hisa? Think you're going to get in trouble for sleeping in?" He asked as he chuckled. "Don't worry, she's not going to beat us that badly."

Arisu rubbed her eyes as she stretched on her bedafter waking up to Naoki's wake up call. She got up and put on a shirt, then exited the room, yawning and still rubbing her eyes. She smiled back at Naoki and walked over to her, wrapping her arms around her sleeply. "Remind me why we had to get up so early again?" She asked with a giggle then quickly kissed Naoki on the neck. "I really hate waking up when you're not near me."

[MischievousFoxxAdministrator]

Hideaki looked over at his mother when she entered the room and laughed a little at her question. "Yeah. She's definately not the type you can keep in one place for too long," he joked. He rolled his eyes and sat down, picking up his things. "I think I know what I'm doing by now. Don't start treating me like a kid," he said, sounding a little annoyed at the slight lecture he was given. He leaned back, crossing his legs. "Well, he hasn't changed too much, but he's gotten better. I could do without his complaining that there isn't anything to do." He sighed, rubbing his head as he closed his eyes. "He keeps asking about you. Wanting to know if you're alright, if you're happy. Things like that. Kind of annoying to be honest." He opened his eyes when he caught his uncles scent not to far from the castle and remembered he was supposed to meet him. He looked at his mother as he stood up. "Oh, I invited Alex to the wedding so he'll be spending the night like everyone else," he said as he jogged over to the door. "Be back later!" He ran outside to meet up with his uncle to avoid the awkward conversation for now.

Alexander looked up as he got to the gate and saw his nephew already running out to him. He put his hands behind his head as he waited for Hideaki. He closed his eyes and smiled. "So, you ask your mother if I could come yet?" Hideaki rubbed his head as he stopped in front on his uncle. "Er, no, more like told her." Alexander's smile faded quickly. "Oh...lovely..." He shrugged his shoulder as he looked at his nephew. "Well, guess we'll see how everything turns out."

"At least her father wouldn't drag people around and leave them behind," Katsuo said with an annoyed tone. He turned his attention back to Hikaru when he got up and approached him. He took a step back when he saw the look in Hikaru's eyes. "And what exactly are you planning on doing to 'relieve' my so called stress?" He asked curiously, trying to ignore the fact that Hikaru was naked. He blushed slightly and turned his head away. "Perverted as ever. Nice to see you haven't changed over the years."

Haruka stood there in shock in the hallway after the tramitizing scene. 'I really need to quit that...' She covered her face with her hands and headed downstairs. She walked back into the throne room and leaned up against the wall, sliding to the floor. She whined a little, shivering from disgust. She hadn't even noticed Ayane in the room or that Hideaki had left.

Shuichi rolled onto his side, hugging his pillow and blushing a little in his sleep. He kind of woke up when he heard a knock at the door. "It's open!" He called out and rolled over so his back was to the door, falling right back to sleep.

_______________________________________________________________

Kazuo fell off the bed laughing when Tatsuya went through the floor, holding his stomache. Mayumi giggled as well and hopped off the bed. Kazuo quickly got up and grabbed his sister's hand and turned, getting a head start. Tatsuya was much faster than they were thanks to his wings, but he still managed to keep a gap for the most part. He looked over his shoulder and laughed at Tatsuya. "Hurry up slow poke!" Mayumi giggled again and looked up at Yuko as they ran by. "Morning sis!" She yelled as they turned the corner and phased into another room.

Mayumi let go of her brother's hand and turned invisible, hiding around a corner so she could get away when Tatsuya went after her twin. Kazuo smirked and phased into another room. He looked over his shoulder, using his x-ray to see how far Tatsuya was from him. He smirked when he didn't see him and phased through another wall, but stopped dead when he ran into someone and stumbled back. He looked up and was surprised to see his brother and quickly turned to run again.

_______________________________________________________________

"It's your daughters wedding tomorrow. Nothing important my ass. There's a lot to prepare for," Kamiko said and gave him a kiss on the cheek. She sat up and looked at the clock, then back at her husband. She sighed. "He wasn't going to be in a good mood either way once we got to the vampire kingdom. I swear, he and Hideaki remind me so much of how you and Aedan used to argue." She poked his nose with a giggle. "Like fathers like sons." She rolled her eyes and stood up, walking over to the closet to grab some clothes. "Oh stop it. You've always liked him and he has always showed you respect. And he makes Yuko happy. That's all that matters."

_______________________________________________________________

Hisao turned and looked at Kioshi. "You think so? She's got a worse attitude than Haruka." He rubbed the back of his head with a sigh. "Speak for yourself. Itsuko actually likes you. Everytime I see her she always points out something I did wrong." He smirked at Kioshi. "Makes me wonder how close you two really are," he teased, smacking Kioshi on the back. He walked up to the door and knocked on it, hearing Itsuko telling them to come in.

Itsuko crossed her arms and gave Hisao an annoyed look. "You're late. They already left without you. What's the excuse this time?" She asked. Hisao nervously laughed. "Sorry. My alarm didn't go off." Itsuko placed her hand on her forehead and closed her eyes with a sigh. "I swear..." She looked back up at Kioshi. "And Haruka was pretty disappointed when you didn't show up either."

_______________________________________________________________

Naoki set down her cup and leaned her head back, looking up at Arisu. "Haruka will be back to pick us up in about an hour or so. We can sleep more when we get to the other kingdom," she pointed out with a smile. "Not my fault I'm a morning person." she giggled, leaning up and kissing Arisu on the cheek.

[Tails the Fox]

Ayane's eyes widened a little bit when she was told that Alexander was invited to the wedding without her knowledge and rolled her eyes as her son ran out the door. "What a burden...," She thought as she stood up. "Better go let everyone know th..." She started to say but noticed Haruka walking down the stairs. She raised one of her eyebrows in confusion as to why she was shivering. She walked over to her and croutched, tilting her head, still confused. "What's the matter?"

______________________________________________________________________________________________

"Why thank you..." Hikaru said as he got closer to Katsuo. Noticing him blushing, Hikaru placed his his hand on Katsuo's cheek. "Well you better go see if she's alright, I'll go get dressed and meet you downstairs for breakfast since it smells like it's done." He chuckled and took his hand off of Katsuo's cheek, turning and walking towards his wardrobe.

______________________________________________________________________________________________

"Ugh... Even for a vampire, groceries get heavy after a while." Minami said as she walked up to Shuichi's door and set down the bags. She sighed in relief and knocked on the door. "He must still be..." Her thought was interupted when she heard him call to her. "Of course..." She opened the dooras she sighed and picked up the bags. She went to the kitchen with the groceries and put them away. When she was done she walked over to Shuichi's bed and laid down next to him, wrapping her arm around him and yawned.

______________________________________________________________________________________________

"I'm getting tired of this game of cat and mouse." Tatsuya said when he noticed that his siblings weren't infront of him. He stopped and searched for their scent. He got an immediate lock on them and shot up back to their leveland followed them. He phased through Yuko as she walked out of her room. He turned invisible and shot forward and got ahead of them, noticing that his sister turned invisible and knew that he couldn't stop them if he caught her. He stop infront of his younger brother and became tangible again. "I grow tired of your games, Kazuo!" Tatsuya said as he levitated there, staring at his brother. As Kazuo began to try to run again, he used his telekinesis to immobile him. "What did I just say!?"

______________________________________________________________________________________________

Once Yuko got down to the throne room, her stomach growled. Blushing at herself she thought "I'm never hungry this early in the morning... It must be my nerves getting to me." She did a nervous giggle and headed to the kitchen to make herself something to eat. "Hmmmm... I wonder what's going to happen to both kingdoms when we get married? Is it all going to be just fine? Is there going to be some kind of outrage and riots turn into a civil war? Oh god, there better not be the case..." She thought outloud as she gathered the ingredients to her breakfast.

______________________________________________________________________________________________

Rokuzai groaned as Kamiko kissed his cheek. He looked as his wife with a tired, annoyed look on his face. He followed her with his head and rolled his eyes, falling backwards back onto the bed. "I know... But he just,,, Freaks me out is all, with his insane amount of knowledge of that, computer crap." He said as he waved his hand. Rokuzai sighed and sat back up, turning towards the edge and hanging his feet over the side. He started to stretch and yawn, then he jumped when he heard something come from outside their room. "Huh... Looks like Tatsuya had enough." He turned to his wife "Remind me to never get him that mad." He chuckled as he got up and walked over to the closet.

______________________________________________________________________________________________

Kioshi took his arm off of Hisao and nodded. He put his hands into his pockets and stared at Hisao for a second.He shook his head and stumbled a foot forward when he was smacked on the back. He followed Hisao inside and closed the door behind them. "Don't be so hard on him, Itsuko. It's not like he's late all the time. And that is a valid excuse. I've slept over at his place a few times and that alarm will wake you the fuck up." He helped Hisao explain. "Eh, she'll be fine. It's not like I won't be there."

______________________________________________________________________________________________

Arisu slumped over the couch after Naoki kissed her on the cheek. "Ugh..." She let her head fall, hitting her arm and started sliding down the back of the couch. "Wheres my coffee...? I can't do anything without my coffee." She whined and fell onto the floor.

[MischievousFoxxAdministrator]

Katsuo flinched slightly when Hikaru placed his hand on his cheek. He stood there in silence as he waited for Hikaru to finish speaking, then turned and left without a word. He walked down the stairway back into the throne room. He glanced at the two women as he walked by before continuing out the front entrance, ignoring Haruka as she tried to speak to him.

Haruka shook her head when Ayane walked over and looked up at the queen. "I just saw something I really didn't need to see is all. A gouge your eyes out moment." She stood up and brushed herself off. She looked at Katsuo as he came down the stairs and smiled at him. "So, how'd it go?" Her expression changed to annoyance when he ignored her and crossed her arms. "I swear, he could stand to be a little nicer. I miss the old Katsuo." She sighed and glanced at the stairs when she saw Hikaru walking down them. "Hey Hikaru. Sorry about...barging in like that," she said with a nervous laugh and a slight blush. "I hope Katsuo wasn't too rude to you after I left."

Shuichi smiled as he felt Minami's arm wrap around him. After a moment of silence, his phone began ringing. He groaned and ignored it the first time. As he started to fall back to sleep, it started ringing again. He let out another annoyed groan and rolled over to answer it. "Hello...?" "SHUICHI!! OPEN THE DOOR!!" He quickly pulled the phone away from his ear. It sounded like a little girl on the other line. He sighed and hung up the phone, getting up without a word. He left the room and went to open the front door. Standing there was a girl. She looked a little older than Suzume. "I thought you were working today Alissa?" Shuichi asked as he yawned. The little girl smiled as she flipped her phone shut. "Hi boss! Just wanted to come by and visit before my shift." She grabbed his arm and held it against her. Shuichi rubbed his head with another sigh. "Please let go--" He was interrupted by a "Whose that?" He looked at Alissa, then turned to see Minami. "Oh. My girlfriend, Minami. Alissa started working with me last month," he sounded slightly annoyed as he explained the last part to Minami. He had mentioned her before, but didn't really think the two would ever meet. Alissa gave Minami a hard stare. "I see." She held Shuichi a little tighter. "Names Alissa. I'm 16, but I'm currently going to college trying to get my master's in nursing. What do you do for a living?"

Kazuo struggled as he was immobilized by Tatsuya's telekinesis, but it was no use. He glared at Tatsuya. "Let me go you big jerk!" He didn't seem phased by this at all. "I was just trying to have a little fun with you. It's your own fault for sleeping in like always you lazy bum. Get a girlfriend and get laid already," he teased and stuck his tongue out.

"Oh stop it. Our daughter loves him and you know he loves her. That should be good enough for you." Kamiko sighed. "The only thing that worries me is Alex hanging around him so much. I still don't trust him," she said as she finished getting dressed. She turned to the door as well when she heard Tatsuya. She walked to the door and exited the room, then glared at the two boys. "Tatsuya! Let go of you brother this instant!" She crossed her arms. Once Tatsuya let him go, she placed her hands on her hips. "You need to quit pestering your brother," she snapped at Kazuo. "And YOU, need to learn to be a little more mature about things rather than losing your temper so easily. How can you expect to take over this kingdom one day if you can't even keep a level head?" She snapped at Tatsuya, digging more into him than Kazuo.

Itsuko sighed with frustration as she turned away from them. "Just don't let it happen again. Haruka will be back to pick us up soon. Try not to be late again." She crossed her arms and didn't say anything else. Hisao sighed, giving Kioshi a confused look. She seemed more pissed off than usual. He shrugged and motioned for Kioshi to go talk to her before turning and leaving the room.

Naoki giggled at the way Arisu was acting. She got up and walked into the kitchen. She walked over after a few minutes with a cup of coffee and knelt down next to her. "There was already some made. You need to at least make it past the living room sometime," she said as she set the coffee next to her before standing up again.

[Tails the Fox]

Minami rolled her eyes when she heard Shuichi's phone ring. She closed her eyes and smiled when the phone stopped. Her smiled quickly faded as her tiredness did as well when the phone rang again and made a deep sigh. Her arm flopped onto the bed when Shuichi rolled over to answer his phone. She opened one of her eyes and raised the  same eyes eyebrow in confusion when she heard a high pitched voice yell over the other end of the phone but couldn't make out what the voice was saying. Minami sat up when she noticed Shuichi get up and leave the room. She sighed again and stretched. "Why in the fuck would anyone need to call him right before he falls asleep besides myself?!" She said out loud to herself. "Guess I better go see who it is..." She got up from the bed and walked into the living room. She stopped dead in the middle of the room when she saw that it was a younger girl at the door, holding her mans arm tightly, firmly in between her breasts. Her face started turning a light shade a red from the anger starting to build up and crossed her arms and slightly nodded at what Shuichi had said. "Mmmhmmm..." She glared back at Alissa responding in annoyance, "Minami..." An evil grin came across her face. "...If I told you, I'd have to kill you." As Minami grinned, she bared her fangs just slightly so Alissa would get the hint, hopefully. "Geez and I thought I was a slut with the outfits I wear."

"Oh god, I think I know what she's talking about." Ayane thought as she giggled a little. Ayane stood up as well and noticed Katsuo walking out the door. She looked at Haruka after hearing what she had just said. "Well some people change dramatically after training and being away from other people for so long, hun." She said, placing her hand on Haruka's shoulder, trying to reassure her with a gentle smile. She took her hand off her shoulder and said "Come on, lets go have breakfast." She started walking to the kitchen when she noticed Hikaru walking down the stairs. "So I see you gave Haruka quite a scare huh?" She giggled.

After Hikaru finished getting dressed, He looked at himself in the mirror and thought, "Man... I really miss having you around..." She shook his head and smiled. "Well, time to go downstairs." He popped his collar and started walking down the stairs. He noticed that Katsuo wasn't there and look at Ayane when she spoke to him. "Oh yeah." He started to laugh. Then he looked at Haruka. "Just like your father. Doesn't look like the apple fell far from the tree." He chuckled again and followed them into the kitchen.

Tatsuya sighed when his sibling tried to give him a guilt trip. He ignored it then groaned when he heard his mother start yelling at him. ''Good god woman!" He let his brother go and turned to her, crossing his arms."Well if it wasn't for you, mother, father would have this kingdom flipped the way he wants it to. So YOU'RE the reason he keeps a level head. And I don't see why I should be FORCED to take over the kingdom. Dad isn't going to die for quite a while, so I don't see why you're worrying about that."

Rokuzai rolled his eyes as he smiled, getting clothed. He nodded and said "That's true. But why trust someone who was like that..." He was interrupted when he heard Kamiko yelling at them, noticing that he was being ignored as well. He rolled his eyes and walked out into the hall. He stopped dead, feeling kind of scared from the energy that was flowing between them. He walked up to Kamiko and placed his hand on her shoulder. "He's right ya know. Without you, this kingdom would probably be burnt to the ground by now." He chuckled and kissed her on the head. "I'll be downstairs if you need me." He said as he began to walk off.

"Don't worry, he won't be." Kioshi smiled at Itsuko and looked at Hisao and raised an eyebrow at him. He chuckled, shaking his head. He placed his hand on Hisao's shoulder as he walked out with him. When they reached outside and closed the door he sighed. "The reason why she's so uptight is because of the whole wedding thing." He walked over to a bench and sat down. "Knowing Haruka, she'll probably take a while so we can chill until then."

Arisu watched as Naoki got up and went into the kitchen. She smiled when she saw her come out with a cup of coffee. "Oh, but I like it when you make me stuff..." She kind of curled up in to a ball on the floor, giving her an innocent look. "Your coffee is the bestest." She curled up a little more, pulling up her shirt on purpose, making it look like an accident, and putting her index finger up to her bottom lip as she 'pouted'.

[MischievousFoxxAdministrator]

"Oh would you now? Sounds exciting," Alissa smirked. She got the hint Minami was trying to give, but held his arm tighter. "Your girlfriend seems nice Shuichi. Too bad she doesn't get to see you for ten hours of the day. I get to have you all to myself during that time." Shuichi could feel the tension between the two girls rising. 'Oh great...' Though even with her hanging off of him, he didn't seem interested. "So, tell me again why you're here? How'd you even find out where I lived anyways?" Alissa giggled. "I asked around. Plus I wanted to ask you if you were going to the party tonight? I have a friend taking me, but I would rather it was you." She was just trying to push buttons now. Shuichi managed to pull his arm away. He didn't even want to question how she or this friend of her knew Hideaki well enough to get invited. "WE are going together," he stated, referring to Minami. "Okay! See you there boss!" Alissa smiled and gave him a kiss on the cheek. Shuichi stood there with an annoyed look. "I feel like I should report her for sexual harassment now...," he said after she left.

Haruka closed her eyes and smiled. "My mom says that all the time. She even says that Katsuo and I are a lot like you and dad." She looked at Ayane and smiled as she followed the queen into the kitchen. She walked over to the counter and hopped up so she was sitting on the edge. "So how have you both been? I don't get to visit as often as I'd like to. Mom always has us busy, busy, busy after all like usual."

"How little you know...," Kamiko's expression softened. She had never mentioned to her children about the future she had seen years ago for Rokuzai and she knew it was nearing that time. This war wasn't over. She wondered if Rokuzai even remembered it from when they were dealing with Alexander. She kindly smiled at her son two sons. "Get dressed. We'll be leaving soon." She turned and walked down the hall to follow her husband. Kazuo looked up at his brother with a concerned look. "If mom can see the future, does she know when dad is going to die?" He asked, worried about what his mother had meant by what she said.

Mayumi appeared a few feet from her sister and smiled. "Hi sis," she said to Yuko as she waved. She looked up to her older sister. She saw that Yuko was making breakfast and jumped up and down. "Can I help? Please? I promise not to get in the way."

Hisao looked at Kioshi as they got outside. "You think so? She seems to have been acting like that more and more lately. I think she just doesn't like me," he stated with a sigh. He put his hands behind his head as he looked up at the sky. "Yeah, she'll probably lose track of time like usual. So what exactly do you want to do to kill time until then? Training? Breakfast? Sleep?"

Naoki placed her hands on her hips and gave Arisu as half smile. "The best-est huh?" She laughed as she leaned over Arisu with her hands on her knees. "Don't give me that innocent look. Now get up before I tickle that tummy you're starting to show," she said with a huge grin on her face.

[Tails the Fox]

Minami stood there as they finished their little chat with her arms crossed and tapping her foot, giving Shuichi an evil look. "What's with the little bitch?! She better watch out before she gets herself killed." She thought to herself, still glaring at Shuichi. "So I see you found a new toy huh?"

"Eh, good and bad. More bad today because of Alex..." Ayane started to reply then had a quick shiver down her spine. "... But besides that, running this kingdom by myself pretty much is stressful, but I got used to the idea. And that's the part of being a successor to something, to get you ready to become a leader one day." She smiled at Haruka and started gathering the food for the three of them.

Hikaru nodded to what Ayane had said in response to Haruka's question. "But it does get pretty dull in the vampire kingdom, that's why I stay in my room most days, practicing, studying, you know the good stuff." He shrugged and sat down at the dinning table. He looked up at the Ayane and smiled at her in a thankful manner and started eating.

Rokuzai laughed at her comment as he walked downstairs. "I know enough." He wagged his finger in the air for a moment. He stopped, stretched, and took a deep breathe when he reached the throne room. "I love the smell of died blood in the mornings." He smiled then caught the smell of something cooking. He turned to his wife when she caught up to him. "Suddenly I'm starving." He chuckled.

Tatsuya rolled his eyes when his mother turned and walked away. "What an irritating attitude she has..." He thought to himself then turned to his brother when he started talking. He shrugged his shoulders and turned around. "Eh, maybe. The future changes with events that you participate in and do not participate in so I'm not to sure."

"Hey..." Yuko sighed as she began gathering the ingredients for breakfast. Her stomach growled again and she groaned in pain. She turned to her sister and giggled. "Sure." She smiled and waved her over to her. "It's just pancakes, eggs, bacon... LOTS of bacon actually, and toast, so it souldn't be to difficult." She smiled again and started making breakfast with the help of her little sister.

Kioshi gave Hisao a stern look to when he said that. "Trust me, I smell no hatred from her towards you. If she didn't like you, do you think she would have believed my lies?" He chuckled when thought about Hisao's other question. "Well... I normally eat then go back to sleep until Haruka comes to wake me up." He had an evil idea brewing in his head after saying that. He got up and motioned Hisao to follow him. "Come on, let go grab some grub."

"Oh noooo, don't tickle me." Arisu said sarcastically as giggled and curled up even more, now showing her kitten face print on her panties. "Tickling won't solve anything." She continued to be sarcastic and tried to look as innocent as vampirishly possible as she bit on her thumb nail.

[MischievousFoxxAdministrator]

Shuichi turned to Minami after closing the door. He was caught a little off guard by Minami's accusations, but at the same time, he kind of expected it. "Look, she's just some girl that works with me. I didn't hire her or anything. She just works there part time while she goes to school..." He put his hand on his head and sighed. He was still tired and didn't really want to deal with Minami's attitude, but the irritation in his voice probably didn't help the situation. "Can we just drop this, please?"

Haruka kind of pouted. She already knew that, but she didn't like thinking about it. "I know, but still, it's hard work." She hopped off the counter and held her hands behind her back as she smiled at Ayane. "If you don't like Alex, why do you put up with him? Is it because he and Hideaki have grown so close over the years?" She was a bit curious as to what had happened years ago. She had asked her mother, but Itsuko always avoided the subject. That only made her more curious, though, she knew better than to ask anyone else.

Katsuo leaned up against a nearby tree and crossed his arms. It was getting close to ten already. He would have to remind Haruka to pick up her mother and everyone by noon, but for now, they still had some time. It seemed they didn't need help with preparations. It didn't surprise him. Hideaki was always the type to do things on his own. He glanced over when he heard voices and noticed Hideaki and Alexander approaching the castle. Hideaki hadn't noticed him as he ran back inside, but Alexander stopped and looked over at Katsuo. "Hey kid. Last time I saw you, you were crying your eyes out on the shore," Alexander said as he walked over to Katsuo and went to ruffle his hair. Katsuo quickly smacked Alex's hand away. "Touchy." Alexander examined the boy for a moment, then glanced at his swords. "Nice swords, mind if I take a look?" He asked as he reached for one. Alex quickly jumped back when one of the blades was pulled out. "That was a warning, now back off," Katsuo gave a stern look towards Alex. Alexander lifted his hand to his cheek and touched the cut from the blade, but it soon healed as he smirked. "You're a lot quicker than I thought, for a human."

"Mom says no matter how hard you try, you can never change your fate. I bet that's why she's so hard on you." Kazuo crossed his arms. "I can see the future too you know. You're going to stay a virgin forever and live all alone and be super miserable the rest of your life," he teased, though it wasn't the truth. He couldn't control his foresight as easily as his mother. Usually, whenever he could see into the future, he went and spoke to his mother about it before telling anyone else.

Kamiko smiled at her husband. "You better eat now while you can. We have a long flight ahead of us." She followed him towards the kitchen and looked at both of her daughters cooking together. "Someone sure takes after her sister." Mayumi looked over her shoulder at her parents, closing her eyes and smiled, then continued with helping her sister cook.

"Hmm...good point." Hisao put his hands behind his head and looked up towards the sky. He glanced at Kioshi when he suggested to go grab something to eat and nodded. "Sure, why not." He smiled and followed Kioshi.

Itsuko glanced over her shoulder as they both left and sighed. "I don't know what I'm going to do with them." She walked back over to her desk and sat down. The picture on her desk caught her attention. She caressed her fingers around the frame. "You don't know how much I miss you..."

Naoki laughed at Arisu's reaction. "Come on, get up," she said as she picked up Arisu and threw her over her shoulder. She tickled her slightly, then tossed her onto the couch. "Come on, drink your coffee and get ready you sexy thing." she smirked and picked up the coffee, putting in on the table. She turned and headed off towards the bedroom to get dressed.

Hideaki ran through the throne room, noticing no one was there anymore as he headed up to the throne room. 'Probably all off chatting somewhere...' He headed up to his room and went inside, locking it. It was mainly a random habit he had to lock his door so no one would just walk in whenever he would be experimenting or studying. He said a quick spell and soon vanished. As soon as he appeared in the underworld, an arm wrapped around the back of his neck. "Hey dad." Aedan smiled at his son. "Hey, I was wondering when you were coming down today. How's your mother doing?" Hideaki shrugged as he opened his book, moving away from his father as he walked away and sat down. "She's good. She constantly asks about you." Aedan sighed as his smile faded. Even after all these years, they still only exchanged a few words before he was completely ignored by his son.

Daichi didn't seem too interested in what was going on. He was laying down with his eyes closed, ignoring everyone like he normally did. Rarely you would get some kind of reaction out of him. Kaleb glanced over at Hideaki and Aedan, then shook his head. Aedan was trying hard, a little too hard to get his son to talk to him. He turned his attention to the lycans who normally stayed away from everyone, unless Hideaki was around at least. Then Yoshiko would bother him usually, but sometimes the king and queen would go and talk to him as well.

"I'm really getting sick and tired of the same scenery, the same routine. I need a day out of this place, but that's probably asking for too much," Junichi stated as he turned his head to Izanagi. They stayed off in their own little area, but for the most part got along with everyone. They mainly avoided the king. "If the prince were alive, that damn war probably wouldn't have happened." There were rumors that the lycan prince had been killed during his travels. As much as he was like his father, the prince had a soft spot for his people's wishes. Though, there was never any proof found if he was alive or dead. He just...disappeared.

[MischievousFoxxAdministrator]

u wanna start over or continue where we were?

[Tails the Fox]

"Alright, 'mister popular', I'll drop it. For now." Minami said in an aggressive tone and threw her arms to her sides. "I'm going for a walk..." She started heading to the front door, then stopped when she reached it. She turned her head and said, "If I catch you talking to her at the party, there's gonna be hell to pay." She squinted her eyes for a split second then exited the house, slamming the door behind her. "Fucking cunt!" She said under her breath as she turned invisible and started on her walk.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

"Yeah... It's hard..." Hikaru said with half his mouth filled with food. He lifted his fork and shook it at Haruka and swallowed, then continued with what he was saying. "But the people and support around you make it worth while." He smiled at Haruka then continued with his meal.

"He's right, you know." Ayane said as she sat down at the table. She patted the seat next to her, signaling for Haruka to sit next to her. "You'll understand better when your time comes. For now, just try to relax." She smiled at Haruka and began eating as well.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

"Plech!" Tatsuya sounded as he whipped his arm up and down. "Prophecy. smophechy..." He turned around and walked over to his little brother and leaned over a little bit. "It's not what's up here that counts..." He poked Kazuo on the forehead gently. "It's what counts in here..." He poked his stomach next and stood back up. "You can't have any brains without a little guts.. Hopefully that advice will stick in your head, pipsqueak." He chuckled.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

Yuko jumped, nearing spilling the pancake batter when her mom said something. "Geez mom you need to quit doing that!" She exclaimed playfully then stuck out her tongue at her. "It's almost ready so have a seat." She placed the batter bowl on the counter next to frying pan.

"Woman, please. A long flight? Well maybe for you, but not for this flying ace!" Rokuzai said proudly. He sort of chuckled when he saw his daughter jump. "Someone's a little stressed out, they?" He whispered to Kamiko. "But don't they look cute together." He smiled and slouched in a chair, putting his feet on the dinning table.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

As Kioshi walked with Hisao, he smelled something that he couldn't refuse. "Oh my god, what's that smell!?" He looked around and noticed it was a meat buffet. "Oh I hope they have a secret menu like that did in the lycan kingdom!?" He slightly jumped up and down like a little school girl and pranced over to the buffet. He leaned in close over the counter when about to asked what he would like. "You guys have a secret menu?" The waiter nodded and handed him the pamphlet. Kioshi looked through it and was really disappointed. "Damn..." He thought to himself then handed the menu back to the waiter. "I'll just have the chicken." He told the waiter and waited for Hisao to place his order.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

"D'aaaawwwwww........" Arisu pouted a little more then squealed when Naoki picked up. She giggled a little as she was being tickled then made another tiny squeak when she was thrown onto the couch. She pouted and stated, "You always tickled me until I had to pee before I drank my coffee..." She slouched over and picked up her cup of coffee.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

"Yeah... I know how you feel." Izanagi agreed as he looked around. "Well if the prince were dead, we would have seen him already. So I bet his still alive. Strong motherfucker at that too, he can't die so easily." He looked over at Ryuu with a resentful expression. "If we EVER get out of here, I'm done with being someones little puppy." He crossed his arms and snarled. He sighed then added "Plus the archangel and the shinigami are getting a tad annoying, to be honest." He said after he ducked who he was just talking about and rubbed the back of his head. "I mean, It's a pretty equal battle, why hasn't the angel taken the demon to his home turf?"

Kamiko giggled and sat down next to Rokuzai. "I'm sorry sweetie. Smells delicious." She smiled at Yuko, then looked at her husband and giggled again. "At least the girls get along. I just wish the boys would," she whispered back. She folded her hands in her lap and watched as Mayumi began to set the table. Mayumi smiled at her parents, then looked at her father as he put his feet up on the table. "Daddy, people eat there," she said, waving her finger and motioned for him to put his feet down. Kamiko couldn't help but laugh. "Good girl. Learn how to order the boys around early. Take some tips Yuko. I'm sure Hideaki will be a handful to deal with at times and we have to be the ones to put them in their place." She smirked at Roku. "Right dear?"

========================================================================

Kazuo glared at his brother, crossing his arms as he listened to him. He closed his eyes when Tatsuya poked his forehead. When his stomache was poked, he tried not to laugh. He was pretty ticklish. "Yeah, Yeah." He smirked. "So, about that party. I bet the only reason you don't wanna go is cuz Haru-chan will be there, huh?" He liked to push buttons as well as test other's paitience. No matter what he said or did to piss Tatsuya off, his mother would always make sure Tatsuya didn't do anything to hurt him, at least not too badly.

========================================================================

Daichi more or less ignored everyone. Listening to conversations here and there. He opened his eyes, staring up into the black abyss. The occassional flash came from the two immortals fighting. He sighed, thinking of Asuka. What was she doing right now? Was she still waiting for him? He hated having to wait, but Hideaki said it wouldn't be much longer. 'I'll see you soon...'

Junichi chuckled. "Yeah. He probably would be here. Guess he just decided to dissapear for a while. Wonder if he's gotten word about the kingdom falling yet?" He looked over at Ryuu as well, then back at Izanagi with a nod. "Well, we could always see if they'll let us out on good behavior?" He suggested in a joking manner. "Doesn't hurt to try." He shrugged, smiling at Izanagi. "Ah leave them to their pissing match. This could go on for centuries. At this point, I don't even notice them anymore." He crossed his arms, glancing over at Hideaki. "Looks like the brat is at it again. She just wont give up. Must have something to do with him constantly rejecting her."

Aedan walked back over to Kaleb, not sure what else to do or say at this point. He had hoped they would've grown closer, but it seemed like they grew further apart each passing day. Kaleb looked at him, slightly concerned. He let out a sigh. "You know, he does love you." Aedan looked up at Kaleb as he sat down and nodded. "Yeah...I know." He looked back over at his son. "It would just be nice if he would talk to me a bit more than just 'hey, how're you?'" Kaleb smiled, sitting down next to Aedan and placing a hand on his shoulder. "He's studying hard so you can be back with Ayane. He wants you around, or he wouldn't be working this hard." Aedan stayed quiet for a moment as he thought about it. "You're right, like always Kaleb," he joked with a smile, pushing Kaleb's hand away.

Hideaki didn't seem to pay much attention as his father left. What he did notice however, was someone's hand on his shoulder and that soft whisper in his ear. Letting out a sigh, he continued working without looking up. "Yoshiko, go away. I'm not in the mood to deal with you today nor do I have the time." Everyday. What was she going to try this time? (Sorry his is short. So, even if Ryuu and them get out of there, remember that they can't be seen by the living. Suzume and Hideaki would be the only ones. They can physically touch others though or possess someone, if they choose to, but they're not supposed too. Then again why would they follow the rules? lol.)

========================================================================

Itsuko headed towards the castle. She was a little upset that her daughter hadn't picked them up when she was supposed to, but she would deal with Haruka later. Naoki walked close behind her alongside Arisu. "Hey, is your sister coming to the event? I feel kind of bad leaving her behind," she asked, looking at Arisu. Itsuko sighed, trying to tune them out. She wanted to get there a bit early to speak with Hideaki about something.

========================================================================

Shuichi sighed, rubbing his head. "I didn't do anything..." He flopped down on the couch, hoping she would come back soon. "Hopefully she wont try to do anything stupid. I almost feel sorry for Alissa if Minami gets ahold of the poor girl." He grabbed the remote, flipping on the television while he waited for her to return.

========================================================================

Alexander wandered through town with no real intention of a place to go. He was killing time for now. Kicking a rock, he slid his hands into his pockets. There was really no one else willing to spend time with him. Who could blame them? He may not have lost his kingdom if he had realized how mentally broken he was sooner. What he was missing out of life. No one really knew why he changed. Only Yoshiko. And she was gone. He had turned against her five years ago. Some part of him felt like that was going to bite him in the ass later. Hideaki went down to the underworld daily. Time flowed differently there. He was worried Yoshiko would do something to get back at him using Hideaki. After hearing how she acts around him, he had a right to worry about her intentions.

========================================================================

Suzume walked out of school, flinging her backpack over her shoulder. Her school let out at noon each day. She had the same routine. Go to school, go home, do homework, then chores. She even cooked dinner sometimes for her mother. Though in her spare time she often hinted that her mother and Shuichi should move on in their relationship. Her mother still wore the engagement ring that was given by her father. She wondered if her mother would ever move on from the traumitizing event. Suzume would sometimes speak with her father, but could never bare to tell her mother that. Her mediumship wasn't something she shared with others. She could see the dead if they entered their world. Her father gave her advice on her abilities and how to go about things when her mother was tough to deal with. She took on a lot of Malik's traits in the process. She missed her father, but was glad that he would come speak with her from time to time. He sort of became her guardian angel in a way. (As a spoiler, at the end during the big battle against Ryuu, I'm planning on having Sadao and Isao team up to help out considering it becomes their problem as well. Of course, they'll be bringing in help. Malik being the only angel, so he'll be returning for the fight by Isao's side while the others are fighting by Sadao and Hideaki's side. It's gonna be an all out, long, epic battle but that's ways away. I plan to make this the longest one.)

========================================================================

Haruka smiled, nodding in agreement to what Hikaru said. "Yeah. I have to say, I don't know what I would do without Katsuo. I'm just trying to enjoy my time with him while I can." She didn't specify what she meant by that, but it seemed a little off in the tone. She sat down next to Ayane, leaning her elbow against the counter and resting her head on the palm of her hand. She wasn't sure when the others would show up. It was about noon now, and the party didn't start til this evening. She figured Yuko and everyone would probably arrive in the next few hours while the others wandered around town until they felt like catching up with everybody.

Katsuo sat down in the gardens, leaning up against a tree as he looked up at the sky. The sun barely shown through the trees. At this point, he didn't care what they needed to do. He merely just wanted to get things over with and go home. To him, it was nothing more than another mission. Closing his eyes, he took the opportunity to relax. A day off didn't come often for him. He normally spent his free time training with Haruka. His doctor has been concerned with his health lately, that maybe he had been pushing himself too hard. That wasn't happening. He let out a sigh, beggining to doze a bit.

========================================================================

Alissa smiled as she skipped down the street. She liked to cause trouble. That was part of her job after all. Though, she didn't know if Minami would follow her. Probably not. She giggled to herself. "I wonder what the boss is planning? Tonight is gonna be exciting!" She stopped and looked around, taking in the scents. She smelled lycan blood. She followed it, eventually spotting Kioshi and Hisao and stood there looking confused. "Since when did another lycan get here?" She asked aloud.

"Apparently he's become quite close to these vampires. Minamoto must've rubbed off on him quite a bit." Takeo was leaning against a building in the shadows wearing a hooded sweater to help conceal his face a bit. "Who?" Alissa was even more confused. "He's an old friend, that's all." He continued to watch Kioshi for a moment, then looked at Alissa. "Report." Alissa nodded and smiled. He changed the subject and she knew not to pry. "I got us invited to that party tonight. Where do you want to meet?" Takeo took a moment before responding to her question. "Just go about your business. I don't want them to know you have ties to me just yet...but I'll be there." Alissa saluted with a huge smile. "Yes boss! I'll find you if I find out something interesting." Takeo nodded and watched as she left. He glanced back over at Kioshi, whispering something under his breath, then turned and headed down the alley.

Hisao laughed at Kioshi's reaction to the smell of food. He sat down next to him and waved the menu away. "Just a drink special. Thanks." He leaned forward, resting his arms on the counter. "You always seem to think with your stomache Kio. You can smell food from anywhere," he said and chuckled a bit. When he got his drink, he took a sip. It looked similar to red wine. "So, you wanna head to the castle after this or should we chase down that guy whose been watching us for the past thirty minutes?" He asked as he took another sip. (Kioshi can see him if he wants and 'recognize' him, but if he chases after him Takeo will outrun him easily. He'll pop up again later though at the party. Remember, the prince was supposidly dead so it'll be one of those situations where he may not believe what he saw or however you want to play it off. And I hope you don't mind that I mentioned in his bio that they used to be friends.)
