Adnama cursed, CHaos was coming home already? This ruined evreything? The othe counsle members were staring in shock. No one had expected CHaos back int the main base on a more perminit level for at least another year. The reble's already had to work around her vistis, now CHaos would be living here once again.

The messenger coughed again. “Adnama...i have more to report.” Adnama's head snaped up. “She's bringing someone with her...the orders are to call him her nephew...but he has the curse.” Adnama nodded, thanked the messenger and sat down hevely.

“why would she need us to call him her nephew if he has the curse?”Adnama muesed. “would that mean that he's more powerfull than her?” Adnama stood up again.

“I need to think...that's all for today.” she fled to her rooms, pacing. The mail slot rattled. Adnama sighed, how in the world was she supposed to handle all this?! She was only a delta for crying out loud, and now she was the leader for a veritable army. Half of whitch are older than her.

She scoped up her mail. Odd, you get put in charge...and they cut a mail slot in your door. Go figure.

Most of the mail was reports and the like. Yet one was a letter. Curiouse she looked at the mailing adress, it had been passed by her sniffers. She didn't recognize the address, but the name was familiar as the back of her hand. Nerual Sselevol, her cousin that she hadn't seen in 20 years. She had been dragged away by her parents when her little brother died. She had been as close to Adnama as a sister. Adnama sat down. She opened the letter and started reading in amazement.

It read:


Hello Adnama,

I'm sorry for not writing, we have moved around a lot. And Dad wouldn't let me mail you, he was afraid of being caught by CHaos. I trust you enough to have enough sense not to blab if this doesn't apply to you. But Our Lord is Buranku, the great creator. He made CHaos, but she betraid him when he created the first world. The world was named Paridise. Buranku filled it with wonderfull immortal creatures, and their was no violence or hate or anything like that. CHaos got jelouse and destroyed it. (this is when she betrayed him) They fought, Buranku was able to beat her, but only just. This is when he made Earth, he made humans and Lerts, as well as animals then...but he was weak from fighting his Creation/lover , CHaos. That's why (he says) there is all that bad gunk in the world now...

Anyway, he says that someone sent him a message...something about clouds...Said someone in the Sselevol clan should know. He came to us the other day and asked us if we'd heard anything from you guys.

OH! I know this is a bit off subject but he doesn't move his mouth to talk! It's so cool, he 'mindspeaks' I think he manipulates Air and sound to make himself heard...any way, Buranku said the message had something o do with the area around the town of Yoeka...you wouldn't know anything would ya?

And if you don't, ask around a bit...please? I think this is more important than either of us really understand.

May your Path be short, and your rest long.
Nerual Sselevol

Adnama stared at the page in shock. This was amazing...

Adnama Jumped up, she burst though the door with a cheer, she called a meeting.


`~`

Divad looked at Rehpotsirhc in confusion as they saw their little sister yelling for a meeting while running though the halls, a grin on her face and waving a piece of paper. Divad shrugged and followed. If Adnama thought it was important enough to call an unscheduled meeting, then it must be.

As divad trotted off in the direction of the meeting room he could help but compare Adnama to the girl she had been, not 10 years ago. She had been carefree...Well...as carefree as she could bewhile running an army of rebles and trying to keep your entire family from knowing. But compare her to 21 years ago, before the last reble attack...before the loss of their father. She just isn't the same person.

Divad sighed as he took his seat. Adnama Grined from the front of the room.

“You all remember my cousin Nerual Sselevol, right?” a spattering of nods “It just so happens that she and her family are living with Buranku, the creator of the universe...and CHaos” Adnama heard a few confused murmurs. “Oh, trust me, CHaos and Buranku arn't friends now. They are arch enemy's.” Adnama sat down, facing her troops “you see.........

`~`

Milloe glanced around him as he entered Kaosu's home. It was a bit..sinister to tell the truth, he shrugged. Myde wouldn't find him.

Milloe's heart seemed to combust for a moment. Pain shot though him when he though that name.

Stupid, stupid lert. It was a ll a ploy! From the very beginning, HE was just using him.Probaly got paid for it. Stupid stupid Lert, should have known better. And the others...they must be in it as well. Milloe's shoulders slumped. Azami even...even his sweet Azami. He fought down a sob as his heart combusted again.

“Milloe... come, i'll show you your room...would you like anything? A bath...a book? Come Milloe, here you are.” he felt his bag being taken from him and being guided to a bed. Milloe stared at the bed. He heard the person leave.

Why would Azami have betrayed him like that? Had the whole 'let's be friends' and the 'please don't stalk me' stuff ...had that been an act? Rage flared. How dare they? How DARE they?! He may not be worth anything, but he had never done anything to be treated like this! He understood why his mother beat him. That he had diserved. Milloe wasn't supposed to exist. Milloe had ruined her perfect life. But MYDE had no right! Acting like he cared, Myde was laughing at his STUPIDITY the whole time! Milloe's vision turned red.

Just wait. They were going to wish they had never been born. Or even wish that their parent's had been born. They would suffer just like he had. They had ruined his life.

Milloe felt his mouth twist into a grin. He had alwase believed in Eye for an Eye.

`~`
Kaosu took a deep breath, the boy had almost sliped into depression. She alowed herself a crule smile. The boy was hers now. He had completely given himself into her hands. He was in a blind rage. But he had just put his trust in her. She signaled to a servant to bring the boys things int o his room.

She knocked and let the door open slowly. She flinched slightly at his maniac grin that he was directing at the wall. “Milloe. He'es your stuff. She walked ofer to him. She put her hand on his shoulder. His grin dissapered as she fully activeted the curse. His eye's dialated, then shrunk. He looked up at her, his rage in check now. She tilted her head and pretended to give a sad smile.

“ i haven't seen anyone so mad since you father left...” Milloe's head snapped up to listn, she felt him flex against his new bonds.

“Tel me...about my father...” he blinked. “Please?” she smiled.

“of course. Though i warn you it'll probally make you feel worse...” his mouth tightened. “Ok...sit down Milloe.” he sat. “Your father...well, he hated you. He had just married your mother before you were born, i warned her... when you were born he...he screamed at her...he almost beat her to death. But once you were old enough he started hitting you also...” she let her gaze soften “ I didn't know any of this, I came to visit my sister. I came just as he puled a knife on her. I stoped him. He, he missed and gave you that scar on your back...the one on your shoulder.” She pointed to the curse mark.” Milloe's hand came up to touch it. “before he left he hit your mother's head...i heard the crack even above your screaming. I couldn't do anything...i didn't understand what was happening then...m y mind didn't want to prosses it. But before he left he said that he was going to punish you both...by leaving you alive. He said that you weren't fit enough for company. He did something to your mother...I didn't know what it was before. I thin he cursed her. To where she couldn't help but hate you...” Kaosu looked up from her hands. Milloe had a shocked expression on his face.
It changed to horror when understanding bloomed into his eyes.

“I'm sorry Milloe...I wish i could change it...i really do. You don't deserve this.” Milloe's horrified expression changed to a bitter smile and he patted her hands.

“it's alright...i do seem to remember it. If only a little. I guess i've known all this time...Thank you Aunt.”she stood up.

“Sorry, Milloe...do you want anything to eat?” he shook his head. “then i'll let you sleep...or get settled in, witch ever you wish.” he nodded. As she shut the door she could almost hear him turning over what she had said to him in his head. Then she felt the answering bloom of hate and rage. A growl and the sound of something being smashed. Accompanied by a vibration in the stone floor cause her to smile. Divad's eyes were wide as he stared at the door.

“That's my boy.” she was smiling as she padded back to her office. She had some work to do.

`~`

Divad Stared at the door in shock. What the hell was that boy? He had felt the power behind the attack through the Granite floor! He dreaded walking in there, but he had to...he had been assigned to take the boys bags to him.

He knocked lightly on the door. A light voice, albet rough from anger, answered.

“Come in.” Divad opened the door. He took a deep breath and steped into the room.

“Master Milloe, Where shall I put your bags?” Divad was suprise when two small hands took the bags from him, his head flew up to see the boy properly. Bright green eye's were studieng him. He saw that Milloe was very short, also very lean.

“Please don't call me that... i don't deserve it.” Divad blinked. This was the same boy who made the floor vibrate?

“I'm sorry..Sir...I'll be punished if i do not call you that...By the order of my mistris...Kaosu.” Milloe smiled a biter smile.

“I'll speak to her... i don't want you to get in trouble. Not to wory though...Kaosu isn't un-fair, she'll listin.” With that Milloe set his bags down by the bed and floped down. “but...uh...you...you can go if you like...i don't need anything” Divad Bowed.

“Yes...erm, sir. Thank you...sir.” With a feeling of confusion Divad bowed himself out. He had to talk to Adnama.

`~`

Adnama was writing a reply to her cousin when a frantic knocking sounded of her door. She put down her pen and called for them to enter.

Divad pushed into the room. “The boy that CHaos brought with her...He's stronger than Chaos.” Adnama frowned in confusion.

“what do you mean? The pink fured one? That's immpossible! He's just a delta!” Divad shook his head.

“No, After Chaos left him he did soemthing, the walls and floor were vibrating with it.” Adnama licked her lips. This was not good. If he acted like CHaos... “He's nice though, he doesn't want to be called Master. he says he doesn't deserve it.” Adnama pondered this. Mabey they could use him as an ally...

“But he thinks CHaos is nice. He trusts her absolutly, He is also cursed.” Adnama swore. This was horrible! He was stonger than CHaos and did evreything that CHaos told him to!

“What does he look like” Divad told her, she would tel Nerual about him.

So much for her plans... she thanked her brother and went back to writing the letter. She had a feeling that Buranku needed to know about this.

`~`

Nerual Stared in suprise when she got the letter. Adnama had answered!

“DAD!” he steped out of the door as she came sprinting back to the house. “Adnama answered!” Tam Sselevol's mouth droped open. None of them had really been expecting the Girl to answer.

“Esined! We have an answer from Adnama!” the brown haired lert called to his wife and they gathered around the table to read the letter on the slightly grimy piece of paper.:


Nerual,

You were right to contact me, The information you provided of the creation of earth has proved to be a lifesaver. It was Divad who sent the message. Chaos ordered him to mask her movements from Buranku. He clouded the map instead. We had given up hope that our call had been headed.

As for the town of Yoeka, CHaos has Brought a boy from the town. He's incredibly powerful. Possibly stronger than Chaos. She has him cursed... Uncle Tam should know what i mean by that. But he's only a delta. Divad was assigned to him. The boy's name is Milloe Roseada. CHaos is posing as his aunt, names Kaosu. Milloe believes her. He has vivid pink hair...wolf feet and a gerbil tail...and very creepy green eye's..they look like they are staring into your soul.

Also. If you need to contact someone in CHaos's underworld. You MUST send the letter to me. I am the leader of the Reble forces here. The adults are still cowed from the last attack but I am leading the Delta's and Beta's in this. Divad and Rehpotsirhc are helping. Do not contact Eibbed, Nylriam or Nad. Mother and Nad are still loyal to Chaos...Nylrian cannot aford to have her cover blown. Of corse if you want to condemn us to death then yes contact Refinej, she's only Chaos's secretary after all.

One question that has been bothering us all though...why did you leave Yram behind? Don't contact her though...She thinks that Chaos is as good as God.

Lehcim is CHaos's erand boy, he's living with Refinej. So he's a no-no...

erm...sorry for this taking a report form...You have no idea how gratefull we are for you contacting us. It feel's like we're drowning over here... Chaos came back after 2 years of living in Yoeka, realing Milloe in.

Oh yea...CHaos managed to convence milloe that his Father left him to die when he was a boy...and his friends were working for the government to turn him in...He's 419 years old...I suspect that CHaos's curse kept him as a delta his whole life.

His mother is Pansuke Roseada...no one knows who his father is. Well, i suspect CHaos knows but no one is gonna flounce up to her and ask.

May you live up to evry expectation that is placed upon your shoulders.
Adnama Sselevol,
Cousin and friend.



Nerual stat back hard in her chair. Things were much worse than they had feared. But...her sister was alive?! Adnama was the reble leader?! It must be CHAOS over their! (no pun intended.) Wordless ly she handed the letter to her father so that he could read it. He took one look at her bloodless face and buried his nose in the letter.

“th-his can't be! Yram's alive?” Nerual 's paren't slumped in suprise. Nerual stood up.

“I'll Find Buranku...i'll give him the lett so he can read what Adnama sends us.” Her parent's nodded. Nerual streaked out the door.

She didn't know what was really going on, but she had a feeling Buranku-sama would know!

`~`

Myde and Ritsuka Stared at the deserted house. It had been a week since Milloe had dissapered.

“He's not back...” Myde's voice trailed off. He had really believed that The fuzz ball would have come back. That he would have come to his sences and reliesed that Myde was just trying to be a friend to the elusive pink lert.

Ritsuka Patted his arm gently and myde turned and looked at her. “Hey, it's alright.” Myde then proceded to look at her like she was nuts.

“Ok? OK?! How could he be ok? He's with that SLIMEBALL! He doesn't even suspect that somethings wrong! s**t he was beeten half to death EVREYDAY by his own mother until she showed up!then the beetings just magicaly stop and his mother goes comveniently missing! Milloe doesn't UNDERSTAND! I don't know, or care how old he is! He's still just a delta!” Myde was trembling.

Ritsuka frowned at the despairing look in his eye. “Myde, he may just be a delta. But he's smart. He'll figuire it out eventually.”Myde turned to stare at the empty house again.

Damn, I just don't know...My instincts are screaming that he's in mortal danger.” His mouth twisted bitterly. “But that's just me being stupid agin isn't it?” He looke at ritsuka again and was surprised by her angry look.

“No you prig! I know what you mean.” she jabbed him in his chest “so stop being an idot and lets FIND him, ok Dobe?” Myde blinked. What just happened? She stared at him a few moments more. “...You need to dye your hair...” Myde groaned.

“Ritsuka...i thought we needed to find Milloe! Not worry about if my hair looks like it's on fire.” she Blinked.

“huh?” Myde shook his head at her oh so intelligent response.

“nevermind lets just-” he was cut off by Nadesiko running up.

“He's still not back huh?” the pair shook their heads in answer. “it's ok...he'll come to his sences...unless he's stuck in a tree somewhere...” Myde blinked...what? “But he's almost over his fear of hights...and by now he'd have jumped down 'cause he got hungry....” Myde just shook his head. Nadesiko was making sence...what was the world coming to? Not that this helped any.

Nadesiko ploped down on the grass next to them, her Lemur tail waving in the breeze. She studied the two who were still staring at the deserted house. “You guys goin out yet?” Myde Yelped and jumped away from Ritsuka, who blushed a brillient red.

“Wh-hat are you talking about?” Ritsuka stamared. Nadesiko giggled. Myde glanced away, a blush of his own gracing his pale face.

“Nothin, you know me, in La-la land.” Nadesiko smiled secretly to her self and jumped up. “i gots homework. C-ya.” with that she sprinted off.

Myde shifted unconfortably. What had Nadesiko ment by that? He glanced at Ritsuka, sure that she was coing to make some rude comment. But was surprised to see her face was red as a toemato, she rubbed her hands against her jeans. Akwerd.... he thought.

“Buranku.” Myde jumped. What? She was frowning and the blush was no where in sight. “I just remembered that old fairy tale...Where Buranku deafeated CHaos and bannished her...” Myde bit his lip...he vaugly remembered that.

“Myde...” she looked at him. “CHaos the Bannished...what if she's Posing as Kaosu Roseada... In the human language 'Japanese' that translates into 'Chaos'” Myde felt as if a Lighting bolt had struck him.

“Oh ********.” Myde's voice was hoarse. This should have been obviouse. “We have to get to a temple...” Ritsuka nodded briskly. Myde sprinted twords the nearest one. It was just over a mile away. It wasn't very big or fancy. But it was still a temple dedicated tot he great creator. Buranku.

`~`

Buranku was studing the map as two messengers burst into his study at the same time. One was Tam Sselevol's girl, Nerual. The other was Mori. Nerual gasped for air and Mori took the advantage and shared her news first.

“Sir, you have a summon...It's from the town of Yoeka. They say they might have seen CHaos, that she stole a friend of theirs.” Nerual looked up sharply.

“Was his name Milloe Roseada?” Mori Blinked and nodded. Nerual Held out a letter to Buranku. He took it, his eye's widened in shock as he read it contents. The paper fell out of his grasp at he swallowed in shock. Pansuke Roseada? He knew that name...from 419 years ago...

He shook his head and flicked the paper back up to him with a twirl of his gerbil tail.

“This has come as a shock... but i will visit the two children in Yoeka, I need to know more about this Milloe.” Mori nodded and flited back out the door. Nerual Bowed and Buranku gestured for her to wait. “ You will await my return, i wish to send a letter to this cousin of yours.” Nerual nodded and sat down in a chair and Buranku, the great creator padded out on white wolf feet.

`~`

Myde knelt at the alter, Ritsuka beside him, Begging Buranku to apere so they could tell him about this. An hour passed and the priests shook their heads, Buranku had not shown himself in a temple in hundreds of years. They doubted the needs of a pair of kids would be enough to pull him from where ever he lived.

About an hour passed, Ritsuka finally gave up she leaned back, groaning. “I Can't believe this, seriously With our news he should be Stampeding thugh the door, or where ever...Myde shushed her and went back to Pray/begging him to show. She sighed and sat down in one of the alters. “I still don't think he'll come...after all we've been here an hour.”

At those words the temple shook slightly and a Bright light showed above the altar, Myde jerked his head up, Relief shinning in his green eye's. Ritsuka heard a vase break when a priest droped it.

Myde's mouth droped open as he gazed upobn the creator of the universe. He had his metalic wings spread open, The elements shining from their apionted stots in his wiongs, his Wild Orange hair Moved in a breze. Myde noticed it was bleached at the tips, His arms were Tenticals, they hung in a way that reminded Myde of Open arms, he had a harnes like thing made out of the same materials of his wings, it curled around his body, his Orange and white Gerble Tail Snaked around him and his white wolf feet splayed slightly as they touched on the stone altar. But what jumped out the most to Myde were the eyes. Eiry green eyes. The same one's that had fasinated him as he studied Milloe. Calm seriouse eye's with only a hint of what lay behind them. Exept this pair wasn't broken. They cousght the light and GLOWED. Then he noticed the face. He was almost identical to Milloe. Myde's breathing became labored and he swallowed hard.

Ritsuka had noticed all this also, But she wasn't quite so parilized by it. “uh...My lord and creator Buranku...” She gulped when his gaze turned to her. And sudenly she couldn't get the words out of her mouth.
Myde took a deep breath. They had called him hear for a reson. Damn it they had to find Milloe. “Buranku, sir. We think that CHaos has been living in this town for the past two years. She has been pretending to be the aunt of Milloe Roseada, our best friend.” another deep breath, he squeesed his eye's shut. It was hard to talk when the one who created you was staring at you and wondering why he had been called here. “I acedentally pressed him to try and figure out how old he was...he freaked out and dissapered..as well as Miss Roseada...erm , CHaos. She has been Acting as our elements teacher these last two years...she did adopt Milloe after she sued her sister..uh, Pansuke Roseada for child abuse-” He stoped there to swallow.

“ Child abuse?!” Myde yelped when the voice resonated though his head. This was so freaky.

“uh, yea...When i first met Milloe, it was before Chaos showed up. He was beaten like every night...but he was good at hiding it and since he didn't have any friends he was able to keep his secret...I found out...but he trusted me not to tell...” Myde trailed off, he sighed. “I know it was wrong, but i couldn't help myself...the fuzz-ball was my bes-”

“fuzz-ball?” myde's mouth fell open, he would call Milloe by his least favriote nick name to the man who created the universe.

“uh, a nick name....” Myde swalloed hard. Man he was really botching this... “but yea, Milloe was beaten then Chaos moved in...she stopped the beatings...then Pansuke was charged with child abuse like I said...she escaped jail...they still haven't found the bit-...erm...they still haven't found Miss Roseada.” myde Flushed deeply at him almost cursing in front of Buranku, he risked a glance up at him and found out that Buranku had a small smile of amusement on his face.

A sudden bust of laughter from Ritsuka made him turn. And their on the ground behind him were all of the priests, bowing, on the floor, head to the grown. Myde blinked.

“uh..” Myde felt his lips stretch a bit then found himself chuckling. He recognized that he was laughing hysterically but couldn't stop, he finally clamped his hand over his mouth until he stopped. Myde slumped slightly.

“Myde, continue please.” Myde choked, the creator knew his name, KNEW HIS NAME! He took a claming breath.

“ok...um...Do you want me to describe Milloe?” Buranku nodded. “ok...Milloe had white wolf feet...a lot like yours...um, a Pink gerble tail...actually a lot like yours...um...pink hair that..bleaches at the tips..a lot like your...s...” Myde blinked...his brain starting connecting the dots. “Green eye's exactly like yours...he doesn't have wings though...his ears are pointed...and pinkish...his face...um..look in a mirror and you'll see him...” Myde laughed ruefully... “this is weird...Um, he's only a delta...but a full grown one, and has been for the entire time i've known him. He hate's swimming...he can kick my a** at any fighting game/ practice...he's scared of heights...and spiders...and snakes..and almost everything... um, It's almost impossible to gain his trust... he fights with plants...it's almost impossible for him to control fire...either it disobeys him or it burns down everything...um, water he's good at...um earth he's so so at...but Plants almost respond to his thoughts...” myde remembered something.

“ i have a picture of him, he dug in his pocket and found a picture of the group. Milloe and Myde were grining, Myde was in the procces of giving Milloe a noogie, Ritsuka was standing befind Myde, tugging on one of his new horns. Azami was behind Milloe, a fond smile on her face as she looked at Milloe. Nadesiko was standing with her arms around Azami and Ritsuka's necks, pulling them into a hug. Matsu was grinning and trying to poke Myde with a stick. Myde gazed at it sadly, this had been taken nearly a week before Milloe vanished. Wordlessly he handed it to Buranku. Milloe rubbed his neck where Milloe's tail had wacked him moments after the picture was taken. He saw Buranku's eye's widen slightly as he saw the resemblance then he held with the Boy.

“Thank you Myde Garr, Ristuka Constantina.” He glanced at the bowed preists. “If you would come with me, i have somethig to show you.” he steped backward into another flash of white, the white lingered and Myde and Ritsuka glanced at each other. Myde shruged.

“Might as well, i've nothing better to do.” Ritsuka guklped and the both jumped intot he light.

`~`

Nerual Jumped to her feet when the light apered in the door way, it started vertical and wideden like a curtain. She saw Buranku glide though, then two beta's stumble'd though after him. Nerual Blinked... A...was that a Neada lert? He had blue scaled...and an extreemly emo haircut. His green eye's were slightly dazed. The Red head that followed him though was a fox lert. Nerual stood up. She bowed to Buranku.

“ Myde Garr, Ritsuka Constantina. This is Nerual Sselevol. Her cousin has seen Milloe. Adnama Sselevol is also the leader of a rebellion that is underway In CHaos's domain.” Myde Nodded dazedly at her Ritsuka blinked.

“Then why is this Adnama not here?” Myde shushed her. He steped forward. He felt his finned tail twitch.

“It is a pleasure to meet you Nerual.” he glanced at Buranku. “If it's alright could you tell me how fuz- uh, Milloe is doing?” Myde glanced back at Ritsuka who was glowering at him. Opps... she hated being cut off, or shushed.

“uh, sir do we have time? Or should we post pone this till after we write to Adnama?” Buranku smiled slightly at his creations.

“As much as I would enjoy hearing you talk amongst your selfs, I'm afraid that the letter must be sent imeadietly.” Myde nodded along with Nerual...and a reluctant Ritsuka. She flicked her Orange hair back over her shoulder. Buranku gestured them into his study.

The space was mostly dominated by a sphere floating in the center of the room, the lights were imitating the sun, and Myde looked closer, he saw it was moving, rotating. He steped closer and a tail was thrust into his way, he saw Buranku looking at him sternly and Myde swiftly stepted back. He peered at it for a moment longer. It was a perfect imitation of earth. Cloud cover, evrething. He saw a satilight wizz past, blinking as it went. Yet he followed the other's to the creator's desk. It was ornate and elegant. Also perfetly sutid to a man with tentical's for arms.

The group worked on the letter, sending vital information. Also thanks to Myde and Ritsuka they discribed how Milloe acted, what he liked, and what really got on his nerves. What scared him, and his favriote foods.


Hours later they were done. Buranku stood and they followed him into the main room again. He sumoned a servant.

“ Show them to the kitchen. If they wish to sleep show them to the guest rooms. Send them back to me when they wish to return to their own world.” The servant Bowned and asked for them to follow.

`~`

Over the next few hours Nerual told Myde and Ritsuka evreything she could about Milloe. In turn they told her about him...About HIM...not how to live safely around him.

Nerual found it quite interesting, the figure in her imagination sharpened into someone she could understand...somewhat. Since of course, she wasn't quite 419 years old it would be hard for her to fully understand him.

Myde sighed and glanced at his watch. It was past time for them to head back. It was late afternoon at home. He nudged Ritsuka. “Rit, time to go.” She grabbed his arm and glanced at the watch for herself.

“aw man...My parents are gonna KILL me!” Myde gave a short laugh. Ritsuka glared at him. “Don't you laugh at me Myde Garr!” she waggled a finger in front of him. Myde's eye's crossed trying to focus on the threatening digit.

“Fine, fine.” He turned to Nerual. “Hey...good luck with your sister.” Nerual smiled in thanks. When Myde stood and looked around a servant steped forward and smiled at them.

“Sir, Miss. Are you ready to see Buranku again?” Ritsuka grinned.

“Yup, take us to the Tentacled one!” Myde elbowed her.

“be nice, I know it's hard for you but you should still try!” Ritsuka huffed, Myde shook his head in Mock exasperation. “uh, Yes, we are ready to see Buanku now.” The servant smiled and the Chinchilla lert lead them back to Buranku's study.

Ritsuka was glaring at Myde's back the entire trip back to the study. She really didn't know why she hung out with him so much! Underneath the good looks and all he was such an a**! Yea it was cute to see him worrying over his best friend, and the way he was able to talk to the Buranku dude moments after he appeared was cool... But still he was so...IRITATING!

Ritsuka saw Myde turn and peer at her she looked away and glared at the ceiling instead. In her pepherial vision she saw him flick his finned tail, the answering breeze of cool air the brushed against her knees just made her scowl.


Myde noticed that Ritsuka was angry with him imeadietly. Why in the world was she so angry all of a sudden? He Swished his tail, the resulting gust of air usually made her laugh...not this time. Myde frowned and looked ahead , the door was coming up. He saw the chinchilla lert peering back at Ritsuka curiously, and turned to give him a questioning glance. Myde shugged. He diddn't know what had made her so mad.

`~`

Buranku leaned back in his chair, his metallic wings clicking slightly. It was odd, around the two beta's from Yoeka his Water and thunder elements tried to go haywire. He knew that the boy was a Water Neada.

He smiled as he remembered making the first Neada. They were wonderful creatures. They were based off of his favorite creature from Paradise. The Dragons. He made dozens of Neada's Fire, thunder, grass. One for evrey element possible. Over the years, the Water Neada's had become increasingly rare. Mostly since they were only possible when someone had twins. And one of those twins was a fire.

That means that Myde Garr had a twin. He knew that Myde originally looked exatly like his brother. He had seen the dyed hair and the contacts. Buranku thought it was a shame that the charistics of the Water lert was masked by the Brother/sister. The only was to tell a Water lert was it's tail and horns. Because evrey other feature mimicked his/her twin.

He knew it was a defensive mechanism, developed after Water Neada's became so rare. Mostly because Human's thought them so beautifull they wanted them as slaves. Buanku sighed. Human...they were so greedy.

Yet the water Neada's had adapted to survive. It was wonderfull! How his creation changed itself so that it would not die out.

His thoughts were interupted by a light knock on the door and his water and thunder element's, located in his wings, pulsed stongly.

“Come in Myde Garr and Ritsuka Constantina.” The door opened. His thunder element growled softly. He saw why as soon as the thunder fox steped around the door. She was angry. “Ritsuka, calm down. I'm sure Myde Didn't mean it.” she yelped and stared at him. The thunder stilled.

“I'm assiming that you wish to return to your home?” Myde nodded. “very well.” He opened the portal. “Myde...tell your Twin I said hello.” Myde jumped and fell though the portal once he lost balance.

“Ritsuka, don't be angry with Myde.” Buranku smiled gently at her. “ Right now for him it's like trying to run though a forest blindfolded at night. This whole situation has him off balance. He needs to have someone to lean on.” and with that he ushered the staring fox though the portal.

Buranku smiled. His creations were so amusing!

`~`

Matsu paced, Myde had gone missing yesterday. Had he gone looking for Milloe? No, he would have done that ages ago if he was going to do it. Some weird prists had tried to tell them that Buranku had them. But if Buranku 'had' them would that mean that they were dead? Ritsuka had gone missing two. Her parent's blamed it on Myde. Where as His parents blamed it on Ritsuka. Matsu was just confused. They were friends, albet alwase at each other's throagts about evreything, but still. Ritsuka might a pain in the a** sometimes but Matsu was worried. Myde would never stay away this long.
A scream of joy from his mother had Matsu racing down the staires before the front door had even closed.

“MYDE?!?!” Matsu burst in the entry way Myde was in his cloths from yesterday. He was looking kinda dazed.

“Oh...hey Matsu...Buranku said to tell you hi.” an akwerd silence settled. Myde blinked. “What?”

Matsu felt his twin's forehead. No fever, he started searching for bruising. No concussions either. “Myde...are you ok?” he peered into Myde's eye's, everything normal their.

“huh, yea. I was praying to Buanku in the temple..he came and invited Ritsuka and I to his place...it was really weird, he has this giant globe in his study...” he noticed evreyone staring at him. His face fell into a flat expression. “aw great, no one believes me....he must have gotten the time wrong...” he chewed his lip. “how long have I been gone?”

His mother hugged Myde hard. “you've been gone since yesterday morning...” Myde blinked. That wasn't supposed to happen! He glanced out the door, it was twilight.

“Yea...i was supposed to be back this time yesterday...” that got Myde some weird looks. “Ok, i know you don't believe me, but it's true! I went to the temple...” myde trailed off. His face darkining “you know what? You don't believe me anyway so why should i bother explaining?!” Myde shouted, and shook off his mother he jumped up the stairs and slamed his door.

Matsu, frowned. Something told him that his little brother was telling the truth. He remembered the time when he used to alwase know what was happining to his brother. He just knew, deep inside...that same spot was screaming that myde was telling the truth. Matsu followed his brother up the staires.

Matsu paused at the door.

“go away Matsu... Go chase some girl.” Matsu winced. Myde knew about his fondness for girls, but that wasn't the problem

“Myde...I believe you.” Myde rested his head on the wooden door. His horns connected with a click. “I...really believe you myde...your my little brother. I just want to know what happened...Can i help any?” he heard footstepes and the door opened.

“Matsu...if you wanna know come on in.” Myde opened the door wider and steped inside. Matsu sighed and steped into the door.

`~`

When Ritsuka steped out of the portal she wasn't in the church, and Myde was no where to be seen. She glance around. This was her front yard! Her parents rushed out, Ritsuka shuffled slightly.

“RITSUKA!!” well, her mom sounded down right estatic to see her. Her mother almost crushed her in a hug, “where have you been?!?!” Ritsuka glanced behind her, the portal was still open.

“in there.” her mom blinked and peered at the bright light. A paper airplane flew out of it and hit her on the forehead. Ritsuka shruged, if Buranku wanted to give them a letter, then he could just do that. She however was tired and very confused as to why Buranku had been talking like that. She sighed. “Well, i'm going to my room and am going to sleep for a week. Ta!” Ritsuka left her parent's looking utterly flabbergasted.

She got to her room and flopped down on her bed. That was so weird. She herself almost did't believe it. She had just spent almost an entire day with the one who created the entire world...and he had giving her advise on Myde? Why would he do that?


“Ritsuka, don't be angry with Myde.” Buranku smiled gently at her. “ Right now for him it's like trying to run though a forest blindfolded at night. This whole situation has him off balance. He needs to have someone to lean on.”

Ritsuka frowned, she knew that Milloe's dissapearing act had him in a tizzy...but was it really all that much harder for him?

She thought back to when Myde had first met Milloe. She had thought that the squirt was Myde's new Boyfriend. She remember feeling kinda betrayed, and so horrified that Milloe was so beat up. She smiled a bit. It had been his mother, not myde that had done that to milloe.

The though of Milloe's mother made her frown. That b***h. She hoped that the Police caught the monster soon.

Yet the thought of Pansuke made her think of CHaos. Now SHE was a real piece of work. Stupid jaguar she came in and changed Milloe's life so dramaticly, then sweep him away. Poor kid.

Yet milloe wasn't a kid was he? He was 419 years old. Older than her mother.

Wait. Did her mom or dad ever go to school with milloe? She frowned. She got up, and snuck into he living room.

Silently she dug though the books that held her parent's year books. She grabbed them all and carried them to her room.


`~`

After bout an hour of searching she found it. It was in One of Her Father's elementary yearbooks. 'Milloe Roseada' she looked at his picture curiously. His hair was in his eyes as he peered at the camra, no trace of a smile on his thin face. He most definatly looked younger. Ritsuka blinked. This ment that this picture was taken when Milloe was only about 100 or so. Before he stoped growing. She combed though the year book. Their were a few more pictures, after all, with 8 years per grade you do get in a good amount of pictures. He was alwase in the back,. And never smiling. Ritsuka let her heart go out to the kid. Poor kid, never ha a friend in his entire life...Exept for myde.

She snaped the book closed, but why would he run away from Myde? Ritsuka knew that Milloe was scared that someone would figure out how old he was and like do experiments on him. That was easy to figure out. After all he was 419 year old delta and terrified of needles.

Talk about never growing up. How the Hell had CHaos managed this? She got up and went to her computer. There has to be somethig about this that is on the internet! After all CHaos had been around how long?

`~`

Ritsuka stared at the screen with increesing horror. Milloe wasn't just cursed like 'you mother will hate you' cursed ...he was CURSED! Like 'You will be my slave and do everything i say because i control your very mind and soul' cursed! This means that CHaos must have Cursed him when she came into town...or even before that. Milloe had been acting strange since then...Was that even Milloe?

Myde signed on his IM just then. She sent him the page URL and waited for him to talk back.

[The Endarkened says: what the hell?]

Ritsuka sighed.

[Foxgirl Ritsuka 94 says: I figured that since CHaos has been here a while that the internet would have something on her!]

[The Endarkened says:... I didn't think of that...]

[Foxgirl Ritsuka 94 says: of course not, i'm smart! <3]

[The Endarkened says: that was un called for 'Foxgirl Ritsuka 94'...]

[Foxgirl Ritsuka 94 says: no, entirly called for! Anyway, what do you think about the info?]

[The Endarkened says: it's freaky..i'll give you that.]

[Foxgirl Ritsuka 94 says: i don't need you to give me anythig thank you very much!]

[The Endarkened says:...]

[Foxgirl Ritsuka 94 says:...ignore that...]

[The Endarkened says: gladly, but Surly Buranku Knows this!]

[Foxgirl Ritsuka 94 says: then why didn't he mention it?]

[The Endarkened says:...true...you do have a legiment point...send him a letter?]

[Foxgirl Ritsuka 94 says: he is the most powerfull creature in the universe...he's got to have a PHONE!]

[The Endarkened says: yea...did you see his Phone # written down anywhere? no...i don't think you did nessisarily...But the letter that Nerual showed us had the address written on it!]

[Foxgirl Ritsuka 94 says: oh you big show off, you thought of it you get to do it.]

[The Endarkened says: ok, why did you go looking up this anyway?]

[Foxgirl Ritsuka 94 says: i found Puu in my Dad's emementary yearbook.]

[The Endarkened says: wow...you have to show me at school monday]

[Foxgirl Ritsuka 94 says: yea...he looks so sad...T-T]

[The Endarkened says: no doubt...he told me once that he hadn't had any friends before he met me...kinda depressing...]

[Foxgirl Ritsuka 94 says: don't you DAZARE go emo on me!]

[The Endarkened says: ...Dazare? Lol, why do you care anyway?]

[Foxgirl Ritsuka 94 says:...i don't know...just don't do it...and stop making fun of my TYPOES! D=<]

[The Endarkened says: ok fine...oh, i g2g. Diner. Remember bring the year book with you!]

Ritsuka growled as she saw him go offline. Letting out a yawn she streached. Most definatly time for a bath and bed. She glanced at the computer once more. On impulse she sent him one last Im, he'd find it when he logged in again.


Ritsuka yawned hugely as she sliped into bed. It was hard to believe that she had had such a long day...quite literally she hadn't slept in over 40 hours...it was most definatly catching up to her.

`~`

Myde walked back to his room. The info the Ritsuka had givin him was disturbing. But if the curse made it to where the subject didn't age...then Milloe must have had it put on him just before he turned into a beta...or mabey it kept him from turning into the next age group...if that was it then Milloe could have been cursed at birth.Myde frowned and logged back into his Im acount. Ritsuka had gone offline. He blinked at what she had writtin him.

[Foxgirl Ritsuka 94 says: yea, well I'll talk to you later then, i have to take a shower. Ta!]

Shower? He blushed slightly. What the hell? Why would she say that? He shook his head. Ritsuka was so random. He signed out and went to bed. He couldn't quite keep the image of Ritsuka in the shower out of his head.

`~`

Milloe skided back a few feet as his opponent sent a huge rock his way, Milloe sent it back to the earth and lept into the air, he spread his hands and rose bushes sprung to life out of the baren dirt. He landed on the plat form they made for him. He placed his small hands on the leaves and spikes shot out of the the plant, His opponent screamed as he was stuck full as a pin cushion by the huge thorns.

He sent the roses back to where they came from. the medics were running for his oponent. Milloe briefly wondered if he had used the poisonous roses that he had been delevoping. He shook his head and trotted over to his aunt. She was clapping.

“Very nicely done Milloe! Tell me how did those plant seeds get their though?” she scanned the faces, looking for a guilty one.

“Aunt Kaosu. Their were no seeds.” Kaosu looked at Milloe in suprise. No seeds? Did that mean that he had created the seeds? Milloe looked bored. As well he should...since he had beaten up his class mate's in Yoeka he had been sparing with Kaosu. He had nearly defeated her then. Much less now.

She smiled at him. “Ok, Milloe would you like something more challenging?” that perked him up. “Some of my fighters have been itching for a multiple battle. They were wondering if you wanted to join them. What do you say?” Mile grinned broadly. It wasn't necessarily a happy grin.

“Sure. It'll be good for me to fight more than one opponent at a time. Also to get me used to fighting with other's.” Milloe Blinked and bounded off to the field. As a group hastily formed to fight. Milloe had one team member and four opponents.

From where Kaosu stood she could see that Milloe's team mate though he was going to die, a very real risk. Kaosu could see why he thought hat. He had just walked though the door when he got signed up for being Milloe' teammate. It was like fighting with a 2nd grader. Or so it seemed.

Kaosu nodded and the fight started. Milloe disapered. Kaosu blinked. She hadn't taught him this. Suddenly the light dimmed. She glanced upwards. Nothing was blocking it. Sh looked down in time to see that everyone in the ring was looking up, trying to see what was blocking the light , Milloe was back and then His opponents were dead. Crushed beneath a fold of Earth. Milloe's teammate looked down and saw the four bloody cairns of stones. He squeaked and ran for it. Milloe laughed as he ran. Kaosu felt his dark and new found Joy at killing surge as his teammate ran away.

She whispered into his mind that his 'friends' had betrayed him. That one day they would be the one's running and screaming. His face grew dark and angry. She glanced back to the dead opponents. Poison ivy was growing on their graves. Kaosu felt her self grow cold. She would have to have him explain this new trick of his. It was brilliant. Even she had fallen for it.

`~`
Milloe saw his teammate scream and run away. Mirth bubbled up inside him. He opened his mouth and let his dark joy be known to all. No one cared, they simply didn't want to fight him. Oh how how he longed to see the look on Myde's face if Myde had seen that!

Milloe's vision shrunk, it was like he was standing in a tunnel for a second. He was used to it now, it was happening more and more frequently now a days. He suddenly remembered how Myde had betrayed him. He watched his team mate run and he growled at his retreating back.

Myde would run away. Not even letting Milloe the pleasure of having and honest fight with the traitor.

Damn Neada lert. Myde was a water Neada though and though. Hiding behind others! Letting other's do their work for them.

He gave the retreating figure one last dark glance and jumped out of the arena. He had grown tired of fighting. He padded to his room. Glaring at the floor, still having a small case of tunnel vision. Milloe glanced at his new cloths. Aunt Kaosu had got them for him. She said his cloths might as well match his mood. He smiled slightly. He liked the blacks and reds, Kaosu was right, might as well wear something fitting.

He gazed ruefully at the shoe print on his arm. His mother had wanted to try out some new spiked boots. Milloe had told her that they were most definatly good quality. He smiled ruefully at his memory of his mother's face.

He glanced around at his room , Kaosu had let him paint and personalize it. He poked at the green walls. She had been a tad bit surprised at his choice of colors. No doubt she had been expecting a darker color. But he alwase had a and affinity for that color. The closer to emerald the better he thought.

Milloe Poked his arm again. He floped down on the bed and stared at his green ceiling. He hadn't really thought the servants would have painted the ceiling also...sighing he floped onto his stomach. It was so weird to be in a room without window. The entire place was like that. Milloe found it kinda funny that his aunt lived in a place that remeinded him more of a bad guy's lair than a house.

He missed window. It meant that he couldn't have a plant in his room unless it didn't require sunlight. He let a shudder pass though his body. He did not prefer non-sunlight plants, they were pale and weak. The also gave him the fealing of being blindfolded. Milloe stretched, his tail taped him on the head. He turned to look. It seemed to be hanging it's 'head'.

“Huh?” He frowned slightly, Wondering what was the matter. He knew it sounded crazy but his tail really did have a mind of it's own.

Then he heard footstepes echoing slightly. And the rustle of someone trying to be stealthy. Milloe frowned and Rolled off the side of the bed, then rolling under it. He heard the foorsteps pause on the other side of the door. Milloe's gut tightened, He knew Kaosu had promised he would be safe here...but how could she promise such a thing? This place was huge, Someone could sneek in at anytime!

The door knob rattled slightly and the door opened silently. Milloe saw a pair of slippered feet. It was one of the servents. Milloe Frowned. Why would a servant be skulking around?

“s**t, he's gotten away.” Milloe tenced. That was not the voice of someone used to cowering and serving. “Come on, he's probally heard us and ran off somewhere. They did say he was Skittish.” Milloe drew back as if the harsh voice had slapped him. The only one's who knew that were His former friends, Kaosu, and the servent from his first day here.

He knew Kaosu wouldn't betray him. The servant was loyal to Kaosu. That left Myde. Milloe glared at the slippers that had invaded his room. Azami probrally wanted him alive, to let him know in person how much she really dispised him. That mean that if they were trying to kidnap him NOW...then the battle would be soon.

Once the Feet had dissapered from earshot he crawled out of under the bed. He had to inform Kaosu, if they were planing to attack soon then They needed to be fully prepared.

`~`

Adnama frowned. “Someone tried to kidnap Milloe?”She shook her head disbeleavingly. Divad smiled ruefully.

“i saw them myself. They were dressed like one of us. Though they couldn't act to save their lives.” Divad's comment Made Adnama crack a slight smile. Acting cowed took more than posture. “however, milloe's ok. I saw him walk out of the room and run for Chaos quicker than a wet bar of soap.” Divad shrugged. “My guess is that he hid himself from them.”

“Mabey...but we can't be sure. I'll talk to Refinej and see if she hasn't heard anything.” Divad frowned at her statement.

“Adnama...is that ...safe?” Adnama smiled at Divad's halting caution.

“well, duh. She loves anyone who can tell whitch way to read a book and acually regurgitate what's in it other than puking.” Divad burst into laughter, Adnama Blinked. “What? It's true!” Divad simply kept laughing. “HEY! Divad, your being mean! Stop laughing at me!” Divad nodded and took a deep breath, Still chuckling he nodded.

“ok, but just be carefull. The LAST thing we need it dear aunt Refinej suspecting. What ever you say, she' sharp.” Adnama smiled and trotted out to see her dear old aunt for some chit-chat.

`~`
Later that night Adnama taped on Divad's door. It opened to reveal Divad 's slughtly mussed hair. “Adnama?” he opened the door all the way. “Did you find anything?” Adnama shoook her head wairly.

“not nessicaryly...she said that Milloe had ran to CHaos eilier that day. She didn't head most of it. Something about an imposter in the servants.” Divad Nodded.

“Yes...that would fit...I wonder who sent them...Buranku?” Adnama shook her head again

“ i don't think that's his style...Maby this “iwa' they mentioned...” She stood and turned to divad with a weary smile. “Well, That's all i know and guess...could you step up security in the morning? I'm sure Chaos will be doing the same. If possible we need to catch these people and figure out what side they are on.” and with that Adnama left.

`~`

CHaos stared at her self in a mirror. She couldn't believe it. Soemone had gotten though her defences and had tried to capture Milloe!

He was the only edge she had over that Bastared buranku. If she lost the boy.... no she wouyldn't think of it. She would NOT lose the bouy and she would Not lose the battle.so she wouldn't even think about it.

Yet she did wonder about who sent the kidnappers, for that is theonly thing she could be. It couldn't have been Buranku, he didn't even know of The boy's existance...or did he? Had those snot nosed brat's gone to Buranku trying to get their 'friend' back?

Even if that was the case, Buranku most likely wouldn't have come. Why would he vistit anyone from that run down slum of a town? She shook her head. All of a sudden things had stoped making sence. She was supposed to have the supirior postion then Milloe scampered in claiming someone had tried to kinap him. Then she had felt like she was being suffocated, that she didn't know anything.

It made her skin crawl.

It made her Angry.

She might just battle with Milloe today. She was angry enough to win.

`~`

Milloe paused as he steped thogu the door to his room. Were the people their? Had they come back to get him? He shivvered and gave the door a shove. He peered inside. No one rushed him. He sniffed the air. No one was their. He sighed in releaf and ploped down on his bed. And after a moment's thought he bared the door with a stick of stone. If someone wanted in, the'd have to knock first.

His battle with Kausu left him worn out and bruised. He sighed ruefully, A few years ago he wouldn't even have noticed the brusis he had gained in the battle. He had gotten so use to winning that losing to his aunt had been a startling experience.

He had been so surprised when she had asked him if he wanted to battle her. By the looks on his...Fellow? Teamate's faces this was highly un usual.

He had been so used to Fighting her during school, he had been a bit dissa pointed when she wouldn't let him fight her here. She seemed stronger today...or was he just getting weaker?

His gaze dulled. He probrally was getting weaker. This was most likely why his aunt had tryied to whip him into shape today. She must have been so dissapointed. Milloe felt a growl rumbling in his chest as he lay their, sprawled on his bed. Tears came to his eye's as he imagined his aunt's thoughts on the matter.

She probrally thoguht he was getting worthless, that who ever had tried to kidnap him could have him. That he wasonly getting weaker. Stupid lert, why did he even think he could have beat a real opioonent?

He was worthless and weak, he deserved whatever punishment he got.

Milloe sighed and roled over onto his stomach, he staretd at his wall. It was plaster over stone, and painted green. He stroked it and a vine grew out of the wall, it curled arounf his hand like a friendly snake. He played whith it for a few moments. He felt something tickle his foot, he glanced back curiously. A vine was trailed over his bed and was laying on his foot.

Milloe leapt out of bed and found out that he had made the walls grow into a creaping plant.Milloe stared at them for a few minutes. He really WAS getting weaker if he hadn't noticed sumoning so many plants. That or he was just getting stupider. A heavy purfume spread though the room. He glanced up and found out that the vine's were blooming, Morning Glory's were covering the walls. He smiled at the little Blue flowers.

He laid back down. Their was nothing for himto do other than Fight in the traing arena, he didn't want to fight right now. His room sudenly felt like a safe haven.

`~`

Chaos managed to keep herself from limping all the way back to er rooms, she shut the doors behind her with erh normal brisk way and felto the floor cursing. Her hand went down to her leg in shock. The boy had broken her leg! She set the leg and splinted it with two light slabs of volcanic rock. She got unsteadily to her feat and limped to her bathroom to find the extent of the damage.

CHaos paled as she saw what the boy had done to her. It wasn't on purpose even. He was still fighing against her as if he was in school. He was holding back, hesitating. And he still managed to damage her to this extent! She shook her head in amazement. The boy was incredible!

She relised not that mabey sparing with the boy wan't such a good idea, no matter how angry she was. She now had a weakness that could be used to exploit her in the up coming battle. She saw her face crease in anger. She should think these things out more!

Sighing she steped into her shower. Luckly she had some skill at healing, the wound's wouldn't be so bad in the morning.

`~`

Myde stared at the front door of the school. It was such an odd feeling, Knowing Milloe wasn't going to be their again. He had been to the creator's house and helped plan the defences...and here he was going to school...the last time he had been here seemed so long ago...

“Myde!” He turned to see Ritsuka sprinting up to him. “Wow...it feels so odd to be back here...doesn't it?” Myde chuckled at the odd look on her face.

“my thought's exatly” he sighed with gusto, he had NOT been able to sleep last night. Why-oh-WHY did Ritsuka have to send that last Im? He glanced over at her only to see her peering curiously at him.

“What's up Myde?” Myde's eye twitched. Did dint' do it on purpose? He shook his head and started walking to class.

“It's...it's nothing Ritsuka. Let's ge to class, i'm sure the teacher's don't think it's been an eternity since last friday.” Myde stuffedhis hands in his pockets.

“uh...” Myde paused and glanced back at her, she seemed nervouse.

“R-ritsuka?” he turned back to her. “what's the matter?” She shook her head violently and stated walking to class.

“Nevermind, just a stupid thought.” Myde stared after her. What was the MATTER with her? Myde sighed, was it just him or in the last week did the universe get put in the blender? He shook himself out, this was not helping him understand things, he was after all suffering the results of insomnia.

`~`

Myde ploped down into his seat in Elements class. This class had been amazingly easy since Miss Roseada..or CHaos left. Buranku had been surprised when he was told that Chao had acually beena good teacher...if a little unorthodox.

The substatute was a short Pudu lert, Myde personally though he looked weird... Mr. Puda Was...flabergasted to see how far the students were. He had brought it up with the Princable and the entire class was being Tested and re-placed. They were also being re-graded, for the one's who had failed or werei nt eh proccess of failing. Myde counted on his element's grade being pushed from a low B to a 100%.

Matsu sat next to him, “hey, did you knotice that Mr. Puda 's name sounds like Puding?” Matsu chucked. Myde blinked, and Stared at Matsu, he was Joking...right?

“Mr...Puding?” myde's whisper only made Matsu crack up.Myde giggled slightly before the bell rang and called Matsu back to his assigned seat.

Myde shook his head, His twin could be so random sometime's. Seriously. A pudu was a species of DEER...not some desert.

“Uh, Yes...Hello, class. Settle down, settle down. I'm sure you all had a wonderfull weekend but how about you tell you friend sbaout it at lunch, Okedok?” Myde started at the sub, agast. He....he had a nazely voice. He sounded like the perfect example of a nerdy substatute teacher!

“Now, class, i see that some of you have decided to come today!” Myde twitched, he WASN'T!
“Why don't you come up here and let me have a look at you , Okeydok?” Myde sunk in his seat. Their was no WAY in HELL he going up their. “Young man, yes, you with the blue hair. Will you PLEASE come up here?” Myde glared at the teacher. Ritsuka was standing up their and was trying to keep from lauging.

“Young man. Get up here this INSTANT!” Myde glared at him.

“um...no.” The teacher turned an interesting shade of purple. Myde's response had Not made him happy. “I'm sorry Mr. Pudin...Mr. Puda. I don't want to go up their.” Myde stated from the safety of his chair.

“Well, very well. Since you won't listen to me, you clearly aren't here.” he walked over to his computer and Myde's eye's widened. He was going to count him ABSENT?! How petty could this man get?!

Myde Flicked his tail a bit. The emergency fire sprinkler system went off. Matsu snorted with laughter as the Puda lert flipped. Humanoid or not he was a grass eater. He ran out of the room screaming of fire. Myde flicked his tail again and they turned themselves off.

“Well...that was highly unusual...” Myde pillowed his head in his arms and went to sleep. Ignoring the shocked looks of the rest of the class.

Ritsuka stared in shock at the sleeping Neada lert. He had just scared the crap out of the teacher! What had gotten into him? She walked over to him and waited for him to make her go away.

“why did you do that for?” Myde turned his head and glared at her. He shut his eye's and snuggled back into his arms again. “Myde you only gonna get in trouble because of that!”

“bite me.” Myde Yawned hugely and looked at her crossly. “i had NO sleep last night...i dont' care right now.”

Ritsuka looked at him for a while, she snatched one of his hands and bit him. Hard.

“WHAT THE HELL?!” Myde yelped and cradled his hand, looking at the thunder fox like she was nuts...which she most likely was. “why the hell did you do THAT?!”

Ritsuka glowered at him “you TOLD me to!” Myde felt his eye twitch.

“you still didn't have to BITE me! Not literally!” Myde sighed and studied his hand. It was bleeding slightly from where her canines had pierced his skin. Myde shook his head and smile at her ruefully. “Please don't' take me literally when I tell you to physically harm me...ok?”

Ritsuka blushed slightly and nodded. “you did wake up...” Myde growled at her.

“don't push it” Ritsuka laughed and made the ziping motion with her hand.

“Quiet as a mute!” Myde, smirked and licked off the blood on his hand.

“you'd probrally want to sit down...Mr. Pudding is coming back.” Ritsuka laughed and trotted off to her own seat.

Ritsuka watched as Myde was sent to the princible's office. How could she had been so STUPID?! Of course Myde hadn't wanted her to Bite him. Who in their right mind would want a fox to bite them?

The only purpose it had served was to make it where the taste of his skin wouldn't go away. She ran her tounge over her teath once more trying to get arid of the odd taste. Granted it didn't taste BAD...but it was still odd!

She wondered what it was comparable to ...Chrysanthemums? Mabey a bit like the smell of them, Kinda musky...like wet chrysanthemums that was it. She sighed, she just HAD to bite him didn't she? Seriously wet chrysanthemums, who knew?
