Third Person's P.O.V.

Byakuren went into the library with her disguise still on. "Damn Mrs. Cortex. We have to get use to the disguise. Hah! Then she orders me around to do some research on all ancient spells for the others since they were too lazy. Tsk." Byakuren said and then messed up her hair and then went to the library area.

"What the hell?!?!!! I have to search through all this books?!!!!!!!!!!!!" Byakuren screamed frustrated that echoed around the mansion waking the boys from their dreams and then groan.

Afternoon~~~

Byakuren was walking in a slouching position with dark circles under her eyes while holding a loaf of papers. "Now I feel how Ren feels after researching. Damn I'm exhausted." Byakuren said and then saw a door open which she hasn't discovered yet in the mansion. Her eyes sparkled and then went in.

Her eyes sparkled more when she saw the piano then immediately ran to it holding the papers then put it on the piano chair and then sat. "Hm. What should I try? Wait, I still have chores....but..... Dinner time is still far anyways. The boys are doing their chores and I'll cook later hehe." She said and then clapped her hands then relaxed it on the piano.

"Ahhhh, the wind inspires me.." She muttered then raised her hands up with her face in a joyful expression then started playing.

Jeremy then passed by the music room and heard a music and decided to peak while still holding the broom in his hands.

Jeremy smiled and then knocked on the door which made Byakuren help and throw her shoe at Jeremy. "Baka!!!!!" She shouted and then threw her other shoe at Jeremy while Jeremy caught them both. "Hey...its me Jeremy.." He said and then caught a flower pot that Byakuren threw at him. He then put it down as Byakuren huffed. He brought the pair of shoes and put it in Byakuren's feet carefully.

After Jeremy om her right and left shoe, Byakuren kicked his nose making him move back and sit on his butt while holding his bleeding nose. "What are you doing here?" She asked annoyed while swinging her legs like a child. Jeremy frowned and then wiped the blood off his nose by using his shirt. "Cleaning. This is the first floor. You assigned me yesterday." Jeremy said then stood up and got a chair and dragged it in front of Byakuren and he faced it backwards then sat down.

"So who taught you how to play?" Jeremy asked while Byakuren faced the piano again and putting her fingers on the keys. She slide it across. "My adopted parents. Well, technically I watch my adoptive father play." Byakuren said while smiling.

She must miss them..

"Hey, what if I told you someone is a traitor inbout kingdom. Would you trust me?" Byakuren said and then looked Jeremy straight in the eyes. Jeremy tried moving his eyes away from hers.

Why is that? Its like she is some kind of magnet.. I can't look away from her! You magnet strawberry.

"Is there any r-reason I should not trust you?" Jeremy asked nervously as he gripped the black chair to relieve the tension. Byakuren then looked at the ceiling making Jeremy sigh. "You do know, Corin is my childhood friend.... More like a sister to me..." Byakuren started making Jeremy's eyes widen. "Don't tell me...."

Byakuren then nodded while closing her eyes tightly and then hit the key board lightly near the low note part. Jeremy then shook his head. "Its impossible. She's been a very good friend and adviser to me... Why would she do that? Help then betray?" Jeremy asked and then his bangs covered his red and yellow eyes. Byakuren opened her watery eyes slowly and her lips trembled. "I'm not yet certain. But I already caught her..."

The five panicked and immediately rushed where the sound came in the living room to find out what happened.

They looked around and found no damage. Byakuren then looked at Zero and crossed her arms. "Don't tell me you broke one of the plates again Zero." Byakuren said with a frown. Zero raised his hands up and shook his head immediately.

Out of no where, a bullet broke the glass that was above the pillow near the window, as it aim for Byakuren's head who was still facing Zero. But Akira noticed and immediately got a book from the shelf and blocked it. Byakuren's eyes widened. "Good save." Jun said with thumbs up to Akira. Akira ignored it and then got the bullet that was in the book. He looked at it intently then at the window. "Who else would be able to get near here? Mrs. Cortex said that outside you'll be fried immediately." Jeremy said while sweeping the shards of glasses. "It must be a sniper." Byakuren suggested and then sat on the couch with her legs crossed and her arms spread out.

Akira then narrowed his eyes. "Negative. This bullet has come from a silent pistol. It has different structure." Akira said and then threw the bullet in the trash can just in the corner.

There is only one person I know who may want to kill me.
