"They Will Try To Kill You..Kiss My Ring... If You Want To Live..", He looked at me with a red deadly eyes. He held out his hand, wanting me to kiss the Black Rose on his hand.
Today was Sunday and I was extra excited, Viy was coming to visit!! This time he better come, couple of month ago he said he would come but he said he was busy.
"Minami, Ohayou..", Hotaru was rubbing his eyes, coming down stairs. I gave him sone pancakes and syrup.
"Minami, how did I fall a sleep yesterday...??", Hotaru ask with shoving pancakes in his mouth.
"Well, I was putting things up and when I got back to the living room you were a sleep", I left out that he slept on my shoulder part... I don't think it's necessary.
"Oh! And I almost forgot I almost killed myself dragging you UP THE STAIRS!!", I yell. Hotaru let out a nervous chuckle,"Gomen.. Hehe..". We finished our breakfast and I clean the plate and table. While I was finishing up the phone rang,"I got it!", I yell.
"Hello?", I ask.
"Oh! Hey sis!", it's was Viy on the other side.
"Viy! Are you almost here?!?", I yell in excitement.
"Ohh.. About that.. I can't make it! I am really sorry Minami, because something came up in school and it's really important, I am sorry...", he said. I froze... Not again.. I felt like crying but I held it in.
"Geez! Why are you apologizing! It's fine, I understand, school must be busy. Viy, just study hard and come visit me another time, okay?", I said.
"Thank you for understanding sis! I promise I'll come visit as soon as I can! I love you!", he said.
"I love you too, big bro..", I hang up. I let a big sigh. I turn around and saw Hotaru standing right in front of me,"Minami..", he had a sad expression on his face. He walked over to me and pull me into an embrace.
"Minami... You don't have to act strong around me, you can cry if you want, if you need a shoulder to lean on I am here... Minami, I always love you, I truly mean it", he said. My heart pounding, my face lit like it was on fire.

"Hotaru.. I love you too, you always stay with me, right?", I ask.
"Of course!"
"Promise?", I pull away and look him straight in the eye,"Yea, I promise!", he gave me a sweet gentle smile. Hotaru lean closet, I back up but he lean closer, until his lips met mine.
He gave me a sweet, gentle passionate kiss. This moment was a moment that I will never forget... Hotaru... Was my first kiss. We pull away, I looked at my feet with red face,"Ehh.. Minami's blushing!", he teased.
"S-Shut up!", I looked up at him.
"...Watashi no tenshi o keien suru koto ga ikemasen.. Anata ga kawīdesu!", Hotaru pat me on my head. I gave a smile through my blushing.
2:53 PM I was with Hotaru playing game,"Minami..", I heard someone call my name.
"Hotaru, did you call me?", I ask.
"No?".
"Minami... Come on.. It's time!", it said.
"Who are you?!? What do you want?!?", I yell, Hotaru looked at me. I took his hand, and I follow the voice that was calling me. We were now at the beach, there I saw the Roses (Others) surrounding a man in the middle. Hotaru and I ran over,"Get back! We can handle this!", Blue rush over to the man, but got blown back.
As I got closer I recognize who he was,"It's you..".
"Yes, it's me..", Everyone looked at him confused.
"As you can see, I am one of the descendants of the Dragon, Queen Rosamary had sent me here", he said.
"For what reason?", Female orange ask.
"Well... I am the last challenge, if you can defeat me right now.. Being an Alice is a piece of cake", everyone gasp, and I looked over at Hotaru, his eyes were darken and his face was serious. Hotaru...
We all looked at each other, and nod.
"WE ACCEPT THE CHALLENGE!!", we all yell at the same time, the masked man smirk.
"Wise choice..", Then the fight began. The blue and orang attack with a ray of light but the masked man easily dodge them. One by one we attack but he was just dodging and playing with us.
"Minami...", Hotaru said and I knew what he wanted me to do, I nod. With his spell black rose wing spread behind my back, while the other were distracting him I flew up in the air.
Hotaru looked up and nod, I took the small mirror I always carry and Hotaru shot a black ray, I angle the mirror and it reflected and the ray beamed at the masked man.
"What the-", he had no time to react, it hit him right in the face, a black smoke spread and we all back up.
"Hahaha.. You almost got me there", The masked man stood up holding his face with his hand. His mask was shatter to the ground. He left go of his hand,"You're kidding me... Right..??".
"Anku...", I was shock, confused.
"Who?", orange female said.
"Who is he??", blue guy said.
"Minami...". I would hear Hotaru's worried words.
"Anku... Why... Why didn't you tell me?!?", I yell with anger.
"Minami... Well, shall we finish this battle??", Anku smirk.
"Who..? Who are you?!? Where is Anku?!? Anku doesn't smirk, he has a sweet innocent smile, where is he?!?", I shout, the others watching me.
"Minami... Do you want Hotaru to be Alice or not?", he ask.
"Of cou-"
"Then defeat me!", he shout.
The Anku I knew wasn't here... Anku I'll save you...
