"I'm saying if you're a Higashi..." Himeko said
"Hah...the hell are you saying?" Shai asked as she smiled
"Shai I-"
"Excuse us we have a date" Chrissy said as she pushed Himeko out the way and held Shai's hand
"D-date?" Himeko asked
"Yes" Chrissy said as she gave her a small smirk. Shai only stayed silent as she looked away
"We should go..." Shai said
"Of course. Let's get to know each other more" Chrissy said as she walked away with her. Shai walked away with her pups while Toshio only sat down not wanting to go. Shai stopped and turned around to look at him
"Hey Toshio...let's go" Shai said. Toshio only sat down and barked
"What the hell is wrong with you? Come on" Shai said
"Just leave him alone" Chrissy said
"Toshio. Let's go" Shai said strictly. Toshio only sat down as he barked
"Let's just leave" Chrissy said. Shai only looked at Toshio and gasped softly as she saw a spirit standing beside him. Tears built up in her eyes seeing both her mother and father
D-dad? Mom?
Shai groaned a bit grabbing her head and trembled a little
What th-the hell? Ugh...m-my head!
"Shai are you okay?" Himeko said as she walked up to her. Shai only stepped back and breathed a little heavily
"Y-yes..." Shai mumbled
Accept it...say it...just say it...they can help. You're scared but...they can help
"What?" Himeko asked
"I am...Shai Higashi" Shai confessed
"W-wait! Higashi?" Chrissy asked
"I remember that they said something about a missing Higashi" Shiraho said
"That kissing Higashi was my father...Shailung Higashi. He married my mother...Kallen Okogi" Shai said
"O-okogi?" Shiraho asked
"What?" Shai asked as she looked at her
"Do you know someone named Yuzu Okogi?" Shiraho asked
"Y-yuzu?" Shai asked and grabbed her head as she shut her eyes tightly
"??zu??"
"Yu??ko"
"??zuko"
"Y-yuzuko..." Shai mumbled and her eyes widen feeling a painful headache
Wh-what the fuck?!
Flashback
"Hm?" The 3 year old asked and looked at the white haired girl
"Go on. Introduce yourself" A short brown woman said as she patted the blonde haired girl. The girl looked at the blue eyed and smiled
"Hi" The girl said. The white haired girl only trembled and looked up at her mother. Kallen smiled softly and stroked her hair softly
"Go ahead. Say hi to your cousin" Kallen said. The white haired girl only looked at the blonde and began fidgeting with her fingers
"H-hi" She said
"My name is Yuzuko Okogi but you can just call me Yuzu" Yuzu said as she smiled
"I-I'm Shai H-higashi" Shai said as she smiled shyly
"Nice to meet you Shai. Wanna play outside?" Yuzu asked
"S-sure" Shai said as she smiled
"Mama can we go to the park?" Yuzu asked
"Of course. We'll tag along" Ume said as she smiled
"Let's go to the swings" Yuzu said as she smiled brightly. Shai only smiled softly and nodded

"Y-yuzu..." Shai mumbled
"What?" Himeko asked
"Y-yuzuko..." Shai said
"Wait! You're related to Yuzu Aihara!" Himeko exclaimed
"A-aihara?" Shai asked
"Yuzupon said that her mother remarried a man. He is an Aihara and has a daughter named Mei Aihara" Shiraho said. Shai's eyes widen and looked down
Mei Aihara? Isn't she the one...I helped out with the girl? What the fuck is going on today? All this...th-this is so fucking confusing
"I-I need to see her..." Shai said
"Who?" Chrissy asked
"Hey Himeko...didn't you say that you know Yuzu?" Shai asked
"W-well yes..." Himeko said
"Do you know where she lives?" Shai asked
"Y-yes" Himeko said
Wh-what about Mei? What will she think when she suddenly appears?
"Hey...if you knew that you were a Higashi then why were you hiding?" Chrissy asked
"My father was hiding me from these bastards...they chased after us...but mostly for me. I never knew the real reason why they came for me. In the end...I was alone" Shai said as she looked down
"Alone?" Himeko asked
"What the hell does that mean?" Chrissy asked
"My parents were killed...first my mother then my father...I was only 10 when. My father died. I was younger when my mother passed away..." Shai said. Everyone stayed silent and a small giggle escaped Shai's lips
"I'm still not done with those bastards" Shai said and smiled
"What are you talking about?" Chrissy asked
"Himeko...lead the way" Shai said
"H-huh?" Himeko asked
"Lead the way. I must find her" Shai said
"O-okay. Hopefully I'll be able to find her..." Himeko said
"Why now?" Shiraho asked. Shai only looked down and sighed
"I've been running away my entire life...and yes it is strange that I want to meet her now. It's just...I really never made friends" Shai said as her expression soften
"Wait...tell us more please" Chrissy said worriedly
"Since when did you care about other people?" Himeko asked glaring at her
"I-I've always cared!" Chrissy said
"You never did for me! We're family and you're suppose to treat me like one!" Himeko said
"You're not a baby anymore so shut up!" Chrissy said
"You're only trying to act good all because Shai is here since she looks really beautiful and cute almost like a princess!" Himeko said but covered her mouth
"Is everything okay?" Shiraho asked
"I-I have to go!" Himeko exclaimed and ran away with Pucchi in her arms
"Was that a...confession?" Chrissy asked. Shai only stood there shocked as her face redden
Beautiful? Me? B-but...others said
Flashback
"Haha! Look it's that loser again"
"Hey crybaby!"
"She looks so ugly"
"Hahaha!"
Shai walked pass the students as she looked down. She was extremely shy and very scared to talk with other students. The students would usually just talk shit about her since Shai was so easy to beat up. Shai never told anyone about her problems. She only pretended that nothing ever happened. Shai got to her class and looked at her desk seeing it messed up. The students laughed a little and Shai only forced a smile not caring about it. She sat down and looked down
'Whatever...it doesn't matter anymore...'
After class Shai was on the floor while the kids laughed at her. Shai only trembled a bit as tears rolled down her cheeks
"Let's go before a teacher comes by"
"Yeah leave the crybaby alone"
"I'm hungry"
Shai was left alone on the cold floor and stood up. She wiped her tears and laughed a little
"Hahaha...it's okay...everything is okay" Shai said as tears rolled down her cheeks while smiling
'I have...papa's
End Of Flashback
H-himeko...I...
Shai teared up feeling her heart skip a beat
I love you!

Himeko only ran away not knowing where she was heading
What did I just say?! Gaaaaah! I'm so screwed! I fucked up!
Suddenly Himeko bumped into someone and fell. Pucchi barked happily and jumped up
"Ow..." Himeko groaned and looked up. Her eyes widen seeing the black haired girl. Mei looked down at her and saw Pucchi jumping up and down
"Huh? Momokino-san?" Yuzu asked
"H-hi" Himeko said
"You were running like crazy. Did something happen? Are you okay?" Mei asked and reached her hand out. Himeko only looked at her gritting her teeth
"Hime are you okay? I was so worried"
You're not the same Meimei...you're not her
"I'm fine" Himeko said getting up by herself
You're not the real Meimei...
Flashback
"Ow!" Himeko said and fell down
"Watch it!"
"Yeah are you blind?"
"Tch! Let's just go"
Himeko only sighed and picked up her back
"Are you okay?" A girl said holding out her hand. Himeko looked up and saw the beautiful Aihara
"Can you stand up?" The girl asked
"Y-yes. Thanks" Himeko said as she held her hand then stood up
"You're welcome" The girl said smiling softly. Himeko only blushed and smiled back
"O-Oh I'm Himeko Momokino" Himeko said
"Mei Aihara. Nice to meet you Hime" Mei said
"H-hime?" Himeko asked
"Oh s-sorry I just thought of a nickname for you" Mei said as she smiled
"O-oh! It's okay th-then I'll come up with a nickname for you too!" Himeko said. Mei blushed a bit and smiled
"Meimei!" Himeko said proudly
"Hehehe that's cute" Mei said as she giggled then held her hand out
"Let's go Hime" Mei said
"Okay Meimei" Himeko said and held her hand. Mei and Himeko walked away together heading to class
End Of Flashback
"Anyways how has your day been going?" Himeko asked and reached down to grab Pucchi
"We're on a date" Mei said
"Uh...M-momokino-san why were you running?" Yuzu asked
"O-oh it's because...well..." Himeko paused
Should I...tell her? Well...she does deserve to know and Shai said she wanted to see her
"Hm? Momokino-san?" Yuzu asked
"Do you have a cousin?" Himeko asked
"Cousin? Well...now that I think about it my mother had a sister. One day my mother was in tears at a funeral and all I could remember from that day was my mother crying for her sister" Yuzu said
"I guess Shai was right about that..." Himeko said
"Shai?" Yuzu asked
"That's her name. Do you remember it?" Himeko asked
"N-not really I mean...I was still young and I sorta have a bad memory" Yuzu said and chuckled softly
"Let's just keep going on our date. We still have so much to do" Mei said as she tugged on her arm
"Wait Mei...this is serious" Yuzu said. Mei only looked at Himeko giving her a glare
Wasn't she suppose to get killed? Why isn't she dead? Why didn't the person do it?! Damnit! Do I have to do it myself?
"Himeko-chan!" A girl said. The others looked up seeing a white haired girl. Shai panted heavily and ran her fingers through her hair
"Sh-shai? What are you doing here?" Himeko asked as she blushed
"I-I wanted to talk to...t-to..." Shai paused as her eyes caught the blonde haired girl
"E-eh? Wait...a-aren't you...?" Shai asked
"Y-you're...Shai?" Yuzu asked. The blonde hair girl and the white haired girl only stood there until Yuzu immediately wrapped her arms around her
"Sh-shai you're still alive" Yuzu cried
"Wh-what?" Shai asked
"M-mom said that you died..." Yuzu cried
"I d-died?" Shai asked. Yuzu pulled away sniffing as she wiped her tears giving Shai a smile. Shai's eyes widen and trembled as her face redden
Th-that smile...it's her. I-it really is her...
"I-I...remember now" Shai said as tears built up in her eyes then wiped her tears away
I know I ran away from home for a long time...b-but...I can't believe I forgot about Yuzu...the only one person who was actually by my side when we were kids
Shai's eyes widen feeling Yuzu's warmth as she hugged her again. Meanwhile Mei watched how Yuzu was cuddling her cousin. Even though they were cousins Mei couldn't help but feel this fury built up inside her. A mixture of anger and jealousy was going through Mei's heart
Mine...she is mine! Yuzu is mine! Stop hugging her Yuzu! Please stop! Stop! Don't hurt me no more!
"Hehe how are you Mei?" A woman whispered in her ear. Mei only trembled as she felt the woman's cold hands on both her shoulders
"Mei...you're useless. You're good for nothing...I should've pushed you off the roof" She whispered. Mei only felt everything go black and saw blood all over the place
"Be a good girl and just do what I taught you. Do what you do best...just go ahead and kill them all. Remember that I am the only person who loves you...no one else loves you like I do. My beloved daughter..." The woman whispered. Mei looked beside her and saw the cold lavender eyed woman smiling at her
"Kill them..." The woman whispered. Mei only trembled and smiled a little
M-mama is right...
