Aria's POV

It was a calm day today as we all sat around in different areas in my library. I was sitting at my desk looking over fan mail and love confessions. It made me laugh at how many guys loved me. However, I knew they only loved me for my looks. Which made me angry with them, but they were my fans. So I couldn't stay mad long.

"What'cha looking at?" A voice asked looking over.

I yelped in surprised and jumped up and turned to see Lalwess looking at me. I sighed and handed him the letter. He widened his eyes and looked at me.

"Are all of these from them?" He asked.

I nodded as his jaw dropped. The others soon came over besides Willow and Gorem. The two knew what he was talking about. The others soon took one as Misono took the one I just opened. The others dropped their jaw as I was writing.

"Why so many?" Mahiru asked sweatdropping.

"It's not my fault I'm beautiful," I replied sarcastically.

They all laughed as I soon joined in. The only one not laughing was Misono. For some odd reason he looked angry. I wonder what his deal was. I stood up and stretched while walking over to the window. I smiled at the sky till something caught my eye. I looked and saw a gleam or shimmer if you will. I used some of my powers and immediately gasped.

"Everyone! Get down!" I yelled pushing everyone to the door and flipping my desk.

As soon as we all made it behind the desk gunfire let out. I covered my head squeezing my eyes tightly as I felt someone wrap their arms around me.

"Willow! Do it now!" Gorem yelled as he hugged my tighter.

I scooted closer to him hugging his shirt tightly.

"I'm on it!" Willow yelled standing up and creating a barrier.

The gunfire soon stopped as I stood up a little shaken still. Gorem held onto me just in case I fell. I looked around and saw my library in ruin. I stepped over broken glass and bullet littered books.

"Who could have done this?" Mahiru asked softly.

I remained silent as Gorem and Willow walked up to me. I squeezed my hands tightly as Willow hugged me tightly laying her head on mine.

"Don't let your anger take control, kid. It won't help anyone at a time like this," Gorem said quietly placing a hand on my shoulder.

I just nodded and closed my eyes taking a deep breath. Willow soon let go and called for some more maids to come and clean up. I walked over to the window and saw no presence of them. Whoever, they were. I sighed and felt someone place a hand on my shoulder.

"It will be ok. You have us now, Aria. Whoever did this won't get away, I promise you," Mahiru said to me.

I just nodded still a little shaken up. I noticed something and quickly jumped out of the window and landed walking over. I saw a flip phone with a weird charm on it. Mahiru and the others soon came over coming to me. Misono stood on my left as I looked at him. The phone went off scaring us.

"What the hell?!" Willow asked raising an eyebrow.

I hesitated but answered waiting for the person to speak.

"Ah hello? I think my minion dropped his phone. Would you be a dear and tell me where to find you?" A sickly sweet voice said.

My eyes widened as my jaw tightened. Willow and Gorem looked worriedly at me. I wanted to growling punch his lights out. Hard.

"The hell do you want Tsubaki?" I asked coldly.

Everyone tenses up hearing his name. Kuro and Mahiru the most right along with Willow and Gorem.

"Oh! Little Ari! Well, my minion is such a waste, I need his phone back. Would you be a dear and return it to me?" He asked in his annoying voice.

"If you want it so badly come and get it. Or better yet, but a new one," I said.

"I can't do that. I'm running a little low on funds right now," he smirked.

I growled and was about to yell when Willow stole the phone from me.

"Listen you little fox. I've had it with you. You want the phone? It will be at the park a mile away from here. Don't call again," she said hanging up before tossing it to Gorem.

"Hey! I was dealing with it!" I yelled at her.

"No you weren't! You were letting him play you! And you and I both know you were going to do something horrible. Calm down now, before I make you," Willow said glaring at me.

I sighed and crossed my arms.

"Fine," I mumbled.

"Thank you. Now go rest, me and Gorem will take care of everything else," she said walking away.

Gorem soon followed so only me and the others were outside.

"Are you ok?" Tetsu asked.

"Yes, I'm going to let down for a while," I said walking away.

I walked into my room and was greeted by the same sight. I sighed in annoyance and chose to ignore him.

"You handled that well, Ari," the boy said with a smirk.

"Shut up Demu," I mumbled flopping on my bed.

"Shut up Demu," I mumbled flopping on my bed

Demu is, or was, my older brother. He worked with a mafia and died helping a kid. He's been here since I was a little. He is annoying and loves teasing me. He's known about Tsubaki and stays here to help me. He keeps me calm.

"Can't do that sis, otherwise you would have holes around the whole house," he said walking to my bed and sitting down.

I sighed and climbed under covers. "Just let me sleep," I mumbled.

He sighed and brushed hair from my face before kissing my forehead lightly.

"I'll check on you later," he said standing up and putting his hands in his pockets. I didn't hear him and saw he disappeared again. I sighed and closed my eyes soon falling into a deep sleep.
