Reiji and Daichi both seem to be very happy with Kay. Reiji kept saying something about German Suplexes and skateboard moves. As for Daichi... well...he seems really happy. Kay seems to love mind puzzles like him, so he's really pleased. This is the first time Daichi has fallen I'm love with a girl, and I can tell that Reiji likes her too and isn't rejecting her like Daichi did with Reiji's former loves. I'm happy that they finally agreed, and are both pleased that she likes them both too. Maybe we can finally have a stage of peace, without Noah Thry: just worshipping God and making him known to others.

Boy, was I wrong of God's plan for us.

It's now a couple of days after Reiji and Daichi first introduced us to Kay, but it's Wednesday so it's Reiji's turn. We had just finished singing for the morning, and were going  our lunch break.

Just then, a cute girl intercepted us. It was Amy, from the awards a few weeks ago. She had her pigtails and a pink spring dress. She is so cute.

I actually have to agree with you. I want a daughter as cute as her when I marry! Vlad thought.

"Hi! Do you remember me?" She asked shyly.

I bent down to her height and smiled. "Of course! Amy, right?"

She smiled and nodded. "You tawk about God and how he loves everyone despite who they are. But all the aduwts say that chiwdren can't do anything. Does God love chiwdren as much as aduwts?"

So CUUUUUTTTEE!!!!!!

Ikuto smiled and knelt down too. "Of course! A long time ago, there was a boy about your age named David. The adults said that he couldn't do anything because he was a kid. One day, a big, super tall, super scary man named Goliath came and scared all the adults. But David stood up to him and said 'You may be scary, but I have God on my side. He will make me strong, even though I am small and weak.' David grabbed five stones from the nearby river and threw one at Goliath. Goliath was defeated, all because David believed in God. You see, God loves anybody as long as they love him back. Do you love God?"

Amy smiled really wide. "If he woves kids, then I do! Thanks onii-san!"

"How old are you?" I asked.

She held up five fingers. "Five and a half! Bye onii-san! Onee-san!" 

She ran away then. So cute!

But that was then we heard the sound of a xylophone.

"Teleportation magic!" Anubis cried out, but it was too late.

When the sound stopped, we  found ourselves outside the inn, along with the rest of the people that were inside.

"What's going on?" Someone asked, but someone else pushed him aside. That someone was a man who looked like a soldier, one whom was also with Noah when we last saw him.

I quickly checked his mind, and found two things: Noah's face and twilight zone type music.

"Anubis, what type of magic uses twilight zone music?" I asked him.

Ikuto, Neutron, and Reiji all looked at me sort of strangely, but Anubis gulped. He says with a worried voice, "Mind controlling magic. Did you see someone's face in his mind?"

"Yes, Noah's."

Anubis started to shake, which he always did as Titus whenever he was upset. Then, after a few moments, He snapped by saying, "That bastard! What's he planning now!"

I didn't notice it before, but the soldier had a dreamy smile on his face. "Ah, it seems that you have figured me out," he said. "Well, That makes it easy for me. You know who I am, and I have a warning for you Come."

The soldier pulled out something from his belt buckle, something that looked like a metal water bottle. All of a sudden, everyone except Vlad and I became silent. Even Reiji wasn't smiling anymore; he sort of looked like Daichi.

Neutron was the first to speak. Shaken up, she said, "T-t- that's not an instant death gun."

But from the look on everyone else's faces, I didn't have to read her mind to know that her tsunderitis had kicked in.

The soldier smiled. "Correct. Now, here is my message."

He points the instant death gun at..... Amy.

Everyone starts to panic. Both Anubis and Reiji think You bastard! Vlad also gets angry, clenching his fists, and Neutron starts to cry. Me? Well, I don't know what I was thinking.

"Stop worshipping your God and quit your band, and I won't come back to do anything," he says, squeezing the gun.

There was a sudden hush, then a shrieking wail. Two adults, her parents I guessed, ran up to her and started to cry over Amy's dead body. And for the first time since I was a child, I threw up.

Vlad

Okay, since sis doesn't remember much from the time after she threw up, I'm going to tell the rest of this chapter. All I remember thinking was You SOB, you SOB.  Yes, I know that I cursed (twice), but wouldn't you curse if you helplessly (because Anubis didn't have an instrument like last time) watched a heartless man murder an innocent, defenseless, very cute, five year old girl?

My dear Neutron was down on her knees, shuddering. As I went down to comfort her, I saw Amy's body. Her skin was pale, but she was looking peaceful. Her body lay totally flat, but she had a tiny smile.

"Like I said, this is just a warning," the soldier said. The xylophone music played again, and he disappeared, the coward. He did it just as I got up to try to punch him.

Everyone was in a panic after that, but Elsa said weakly, "Guys, can you help me? I don't want it to end like this.
