Futago
Koto.

After a long break, Mizutani held a briefing in the field in door. He explained the victory obtained by team A, and others. Yuki hopes the briefing is over, he wants to go home soon.

"And I heard that the almost defeated B team got the right direction from the manager." Yuki lazily kept listening.

"Because of the lack of mentors, team B becomes a victim often unaccompanied, no one represents being a coach to give direction." Silence, everyone is still listening.

"I pointed at Yuki, leave team B to him." Everyone stared at the girl.

Take it?, I am not a daycare!, growled Yuki in heart, he remained calm even though in his heart was already upset.

"Sorry coach, I refuse." Everyone was stunned by Yuki's reply.

The coach is a very professional person, he is not easy to recognize the ability of others let alone this coach himself who entrusts his team means that the person has been recognized his ability by the coach.

Is Mi Chan taking revenge for my attitude last week. I don't have time to get entangled with the activities of this club, I have a lot to do, inner Yuki.

"Okay, I'll talk about it later. For today is enough." Closing Mizutani, he walked out first.

"Yuki!." Call Mizutani from the doorway.

"I'm waiting in my room."

What else he wants, Inner Yuki.

A few minutes after the briefing Yuki walked away from the locker, he would not obey Mizutani, there was more important business waiting for him at home.

"You're running away again, princess." Yuki stopped his steps.

"Pick." Yuki replied, he doesn't want to talk to anyone.

"Would I take you to the coach's room?." Tawar Kudo's.

"I answered you earlier." Yuki flat.

"Stop acting like a runaway kid." Yuki smiled in anguish.

"Yes, you're right. I'll face him." Yuki replied as if it were more like convincing himself.

Yuki changed her direction walking towards Mizutani's room. He knocked on the door before entering, there was only Mizutani there.

"I refused earlier, and my decision cannot be changed." Yuki said firmly.

"Sit down first." Mizutani. Yuki said, he sat on the sofa in front of Mizutani.

"I did ask you too much, I want you to understand, with you always being at my distance my duty will be easier." Yuki raised one eyebrow. Mizutani looked at Yuki's blue bead calmly.

"Your grandmother and father left you to me, you didn't forget that." Mizutani.

"I told you yesterday too." Yuki returned Mizutani's gaze no less calm.

"Out of school you're not who I am. I'm not an inmate to watch twenty-four hours." A quiet silence surrounded the room.

"You're wrong, I'm a guardian at school but your grandmother and your father left you in Japan, I have rights over you." The contents of Yuki's head worked quickly, without taking his eyes off the Mizutani bead.

Yuki perfects her sitting something foreign or ordinary she considers her instincts, right. Instinct, that is the answer, Yuki exclaimed in his mind.

Something that has been stressful lately, not the multiple personalities that are inside her body but INSTINCTs!. Like a lion leading his herd, guarding his territory from other animals, his hunting instinct for the ruler, unknowingly Yuki pulled the corner of his lips upwards revealing a slanted smile that he rarely did.

Slowly Mizutani followed to perfect his way of sitting, the man's face still looked straight ahead but his eyes were staring at the table which was a barrier between the two of them. The sight did not escape the eyes of Yuki's eagle. Yuki now widened her smile.

"Stop pretending Mi Chan, who are you?, do you know grandfather." Mizutani could not fight the aura coming out of Yuki.

"I am your guardian, your grandmother and your father only leave you to me." Mizutani replied calmly.

"The stranger won't immediately react with a change in sitting position like this, whoever you say this to grandma." Yuki stared fixedly at Mizutani.

"Stop fooling me, because I won't let it this time." Yuki said then stood walking towards the door.

"One more." Yuki turned her head, looking back at Mizutani who was still loyal to her position.

"Give me a computer if you still want me to handle team B." After saying that Yuki opened the door of the room stepping leaving Mizutani inside.

Yuki walked down the stairs through the dorm rooms of the players. Quiet, probably because it's dinner time everyone's in the cafeteria. Yuki paused for a moment, looking up at the night sky. There are only three stars tonight.

I miss you, Yuki said in her heart.

"Are you guys fighting again?." Yuki lowered her gaze.

"No." Yuki answered Hajime who was standing on a high fence.

"You managed to turn down the coach?." Hajime could not take his eyes off the female figure walking gracefully towards him.

Pale white skin that seemed to glow with moonlight, blue eyeball color exuded softness at night, charming lips and sexy moving, melodious voice that flowed out of his mouth.

"I gave the choice to Mi Chan. Don't wait for me again, I dare go home alone senpai." Hajime realized from the daydream, Yuki had stopped right in front of him.

"Our house is unidirectional, just waiting a little while. Dangerous girls walk alone at night." Hajime answered honestly. Yuki followed Hajime walking beside the man.

"Nana Senpai is more dangerous, she goes home alone to the station not to mention on the train she doesn't know anyone." Said Yuki remembering her graceful senior.

"Nana's been there to drive." Hajime.

"Hmm, her boyfriend?." Yuki chirps somehow he was curious, who is the lucky man to get a graceful and mature senior like him.

"Not yet, soon enough is possible."

"I guess he's also a baseball guy." Hajime nodded small.

"Who?." Ask Yuki.

"Who do you think." Yuki rolled her eyeballs.

"Where do I know, I don't memorize them all." Sergei Yuki.

"You know them?." Hajime Tawar, Yuki looked ahead.

"No." Just like this makes me dizzy, Yuki added inwardly.

"It is only fitting that many men are rejected." Yuki raised one eyebrow.

"Senpai knows where?."

"Everyone knows too. Them,"

"Stop, don't talk about it anymore." Srobot Yuki stopped the sentence Hajime was about to say.

The night before Yuki fell asleep, she prepared all the items for her disguise tomorrow. Something new he remembered while talking to Jun Ho made Yuki approach the closet.

Yuki opens the closet to take out her suitcase, she opens the suitcase taking a big enough box from there to take it to the study table.

Sreek. Tuk. Tuk. Print.

The lock of the box suddenly rotates itself after Yuki shifts the side surface of the box, a symbol known only to her. The open box slowly let its owner see the contents inside there.

Yuki takes a piece of the only photo he has, even a photo of his other family member Yuki doesn't have, just a piece of that photo. Yuki rubbed the surface of the photo remembering the figure of the grandfather.

"Am I now standing at the starting line again cake?, do you want to tell me what's ahead there?, maybe just unimportant information is not a problem. I really don't know anything, can't guess anything up front there, I hate ignorance, I hate when I can't guess anything, I hate the emptiness of my brain." Lirih Yuki's. He began to doubt.

"Because it makes me think it doesn't matter if I live like this. Live life like everyone else, but my logic says something else." Yuki was still staring at his grandfather's face.

"Life is not that easy, there is a price to pay for a life." Yuki glanced at the medium-sized box lying inside the box.

"At least give me a hint to open the box you left behind." Yuki placed a photo of his grandfather carefully, he turned to the items he had taken from the secret room in Indonesia along with the three balls he gave to Fathur before he left.

An actual ballpoint pen is a small knife, some research needle, a watch and a small ping pong ball. Yuki took the watch and put it up.

Touching the thumb then the ring finger and the last of the middle finger, three fingerprints to activate the silver watch. Strange symbols appear and swirl on the surface of the watch, like a puzzle, Yuki unites one by one the symbols precisely.

Beepbeep!.

The watch makes a small sound in the afterglow that changes like a clock in general.

"Je ..." Call Yuki.

Ddrrrcn ...

POP!.

The ping pong ball-sized ball vibrated inside the box and made a loud pop in response to the watch and the sound of its creator. A single tiny speck of light appeared from within the ball, it flew flying hovering in front of Yuki's face.

"Hahaha .., I haven't heard that name in a long time." Yuki replied with a bitter laugh.

"I want to change the data to turn Eva into Yuki." Yuki said pushing the small ball that was hovering.

"certain." Answer Je who floated back to the front of Yuki's finger.

"Can't now Je." Yuki replied, her smile expanding. Just meeting with his creation can make Yuki this happy.

"I miss you Je." Yuki said honestly, she missed her secret room.

"certain." Answer Je the ball, now.

"Hahaha, it's a good thing I made you. I don't know if you'll use me as I do now. You are my treasure collection." Yuki stared gently at Je.

"Thank you." Yuki laughed again as the ball answered.

"Je turned into a bee." Tell Yuki.

"On confirmation."

Zzzzzzzzz.

Lines appeared all over the surface of the ball, cracks gradually filling the ball.

Cracks.

Dzzzzzz.

The ball opens to form the creature Yuki requested complete with eyes and two antennae on the head.

Perfect, inner Yuki. He stuck out his index finger letting the bee stay there.

"Do you want another form of Je?." Ask Yuki.

"Hmm, what about something cute, did I keep the change data?." Yuki tapped the watch on certain sides several times, the clock surface changed again.

"Je show models."

"On confirmation."

A few seconds later the data of a duplicate Je model that Yuki had input appeared in front of Yuki, just as Je's hologram emitted a beam from a single point of light on his forehead showing a display.

Yuki thought for a while, he was attracted to the owl model with round eyes and a small nose.

Cute, Inner Yuki.

"Je, an owl suits you better." Yuki.

"Replace models."

"Okay, the new model is confirmed."

And Je the bee does the process of changing shape, transforming into a mini owl.

"Unfortunately you can't open your wings." Yuki muttered, he had not had time to do any other experiments. Yuki knocked on her watch again changing its look.

Yuki picks up a seamless box with no padlock or a lock with strange carvings and a mysterious message at the bottom of the chest. Yuki stared at the eagle carving on the left side of the box that was separated by its wings, while the carving of a pair of wings was on the right side of the box.

"How can they unite?. Eagle, eagle, Hotaru." Yuki finds something, why did he forget about the existence of this box when Hotaru was still with him. Yuki recalled the tattoo on the base of her twin brother's right arm.

Three pictures and a cipher. It is impossible for grandfather to use a caesar cipher a second time, the cipher is already used for my tattoo, so Hotaru's got to be another cipher, Yuki thought.

What does the image of the anchor, the snow, and .., what did I see then?, a musical instrument?, Yuki said in his heart.

Seconds. Yuki rang her finger remembering something. I have to go there tomorrow, Yuki's inner and then tidied up all her belongings again.

"Je, it's time for bed." Yuki said gently rubbing the owl's head.

"Good."

"Off's." Yuki.

Puk!.

The light from inside Je the owl suddenly goes out, Je the owl falls on Yuki's palm. Yuki keeps it at the study table near the picture of her grandfather, he walks towards the bed throwing his body there.

***

Early in the morning Yuki hurriedly came out of her house, taking a thousand steps towards the school.

"Ooh! Keiji kun." Yuki was surprised he almost hit the boy.

"Still in the morning," Yuki immediately landed her hands on Keiji's cheeks stopping what the boy was about to say.

"Ohaiou ... Keiji kun." Sapa Yuki with a smile on her face. Keiji was unmoved, it seemed like this woman before him was already better as her brother had said.

"Hachibara san, last." Keiji protest tried to keep his face away.

"No way, my hands are sticking with your cheeks." Keiji was annoyed but he could do nothing but, resignedly.

"You want morning practice?." Yuki asked his finger still playing on Keiji's cheek.

"Hm."

"Smart child ..." Yuki patted Keiji on the cheek and lowered her hand.

"I'll go first, see you later." Pamit Yuki then walked past Keiji. Keiji turned his head to look at Yuki's distant back.

"Yuki?." Hajime asked, closing the door.

"Hm." Mumbled Keiji was still staring at Yuki's back that had turned the corner.

"Tumben he's leaving so early, is he still avoiding the male students." Said Hajime walking over to his sister.

"It's hard to live with a face like that." Keiji's chirp made Hajime glance at him in disbelief.

"You've already started puberty Keiji." The words thrown from Hajime made his sister silently frown.

"I'm fifteen soon." His grunts walked away from Hajime.

"He's grown up." Hajime muttered looking at his sister who was gone.

***

Three times more Yuki knocked on the door but still no answer, he repeated it again but nil, as a result Yuki entered just like that.

The room he accidentally entered last week, his eyes accidentally caught an object that Yuki had never seen, but now there are seven. Yuki approached, observing each inch of it.

This thing is the same as one of the pictures in the Hotaru tattoo, I'm very sure, inner Yuki.

"Who?." Yuki immediately turned to the source of the voice. The man who had helped her escape from Mizutani was standing in the doorway.

"Ohayou gozaimasu (Good morning)." Sapa Yuki politely did not forget to slightly bow.

"Your bad hobby that goes into people's rooms without permission is better to get rid of immediately." The man put his bag on the table.

"I'm sorry, I've knocked so many times but there's no answer and, uh, decided to go in without permission." Yuki admitted her disrespect.

"Do you want to climb the window again?." Ask Ishikawa.

"No, I came because of this." Yuki looked back at the long thing with that many strings.

"The name is Koto, have you never seen it?." Many musical instruments Yuki learned but this one he had never seen.

"No." Answer Yuki.

"It is both a traditional Japanese musical instrument and a national instrument of Japan." Ishikawa suddenly gives Yuki a lesson on koto instruments.

"You're an outsider if you don't know about koto." Ishikawa approaches one of the koto.

"No. I'm a native of Japan, my biological father is an American citizen." Yuki denied Ishikawa's statement.

"I can see it."

"You heard it." Tawar Ishikawa's. Yuki turned her head for a while then looked back at the long musical instrument.

"One more month, our club will do a show in the school hall."
