Sooooo ER has taken place of my RION obsession :D
If you know me, you know I love cosplaying! Me and Kens make our own cosplays and whatnot so I told him we should do Eito Rangers. After months of saying no, he finally agreed LOL So he'll be Black Ranger (since yoko is his fav) and I'll be Orenji! ^^ So getting back to the point, I'd love to have my Orenji cosplay done, and then do like a dance cover of ER! Ahahaha silly right? I'm not really that good at dancing, but i love the dance, and i love the song! I just really want to do it! :D

Let's get on with the story already!

Chapter Two

Bright and early in the morning, I rose out of bed with a lot of energy. I went through my morning routine twice as fast as I normaly did. My sister bumbled around, she was definitely not a morning person. So naturally she kept complaining as I ran around. My Mom put my breakfast out before Tara's, so I could start eating.

"Are you nervous," she asked as she walked back into the kitchen.
"Not at all! I started studying 2 years before I took that test! I know I'm going to pass!"
She laughed, "That's great confidence! Good luck! Oh, and your father told me to tell you good luck too."
At this point Tara found her way to her spot at the table next to me, "I guess swearing off boys was worth it?"
I choked a bit on my breakfast, "Tara!"
She just lightly laughed, still waking up, "What?"
I cleared my throat with some water, then set things straight, "I had to do what I had to do! Boys would have made things complicated. So by not dating and dedicating my time to my studies, I think I made the right choice! Hmph"
"Quit teasing her Tara! You should start looking for a man yourself~" Me and my mother both started laughing.
Tara banged her head on the table, "Quit telling me that~~~"

I finished my plate as my cellphone started ringing; Subaru! He was early! I hadn't even put on my school uniform yet! I quickly took my plate to the sink then answered my phone.

"Subaru, what are you doing! You're early!"
"Am I? Huh... well hurry up."
I rolled my eyes, "How can you tell me that..." He just laughed and I sighed, "Ok, well give me a few minutes I'll be out in a sec."

I ran to my room and quickly put on my white short sleeved button up blouse, my plaided navy blue skirt, and tied on my matching plaided bow. I looked in my body length mirror; everything looked good. One last time, I looked around my room to make sure I wasn't forgeting anything. I grabbed my knee high socks, my phone and my purse.

I ran down the hallway and sat on the step just by the front door; putting on my socks and my loafers. I waved goodbye to my Mom and Tara and headed outside. Subaru was standing next to his car, and right beside him was Maru.

"Maru?! What are you doing here?" I approached the two, puzzled.
"Sorry, I told him last night I was picking you up this morning, and he invited himself," Subaru said smaking Maru in the arm.
"Good morning Aya~" Maru teased, waving his fingers back and forth.
"Maru, shouldn't you be sleeping?"

I walked around to sit in the passengers seat as Maru took the back seat. Subaru buckled in and started driving.

Maru reached his arms around behind his head, "Well~ You're right, last night was pretty wild. The ladies were something! But I wanted to be there for myself to see if you passed."
"Well aren't you the nice guy," I sarcasticly teased him. "So were you busy last night then?"
"When you're a bartender, you're always busy!"
Subaru quickly yelled, "You're too loud!"
"Aren't you being loud yourself~" Maru reached around to poke Subaru in the cheek.

I couldn't help but giggle as Subaru got flustered. The two started going back and forth, teasing each other and making jokes. They were the funniest guys I knew, having the same type of humor. And come to think of it, I don't think I've ever seen them get into an acutal fight. They really were best friends, and I was lucky to be friends with them.

About 40 minutes later we all started getting a bit nervous as we started getting into a really nice area, nicer than we've ever seen. Even though I was here before to take the test, it was still amazing to see the area.

"Let's go ahead and park the car in a lot somewhere and walk there," Subaru suggested.
Maru was confused, "Why would we do that?"
As Subaru finished parking the car he reached around to punch Maru in the arm, "Shut up."
I shook my head, "You don't have to worry about me being seen with you guys, or this car..."
Subaru tilted his head, "Well, I was trying to be nice."
I smiled anyways, "Well, thank you. That's very sweet of you."

We walked along the sidewalk, next to the fancy white stone wall, eventually coming up to the golden gates with the initials 'S' and 'A.' Maru's mouth hung open like an idiot as he stared past the gates into the Academy's grounds. I can't blame him though, I was the exact same way the first time I was here.

I stopped walking as we approached the actual front of the school, only one big board stood there, surrounded by a lot of students. Everyone was either crying or angrily yelling; just one or two here and there were actually celebrating. I noticed as they passed me and the guys, they would stare.

I understand why they would, Subaru was wearing the famous tongue logo of the Rolling Stones on his t-shirt, ripped jeans, and one of his favorite caps, while Maru was wearing a white V-neck shirt, that showed some chest, also ripped jeans, sunglasses and a fedora hat. They wore completely opposite clothes, and yet they both completely stood out.

But I turned around and held my fists up, "Alright! Time to see if my studying paid off! Wish me luck!"

They both cheered as I left them there to walk towards the crowd. I reached in my purse to pull out my assigned number, looking down one last time before looking at the boards. I already memorized the number, but I read it to myself anyways.

"488..."

I inched my way closer to the board so that I was right up front. Slowly I looked at each number, there were surprisingly only a handful, probably around 100 or so numbers on the board. I couldn't bevlieve it, only this many people passed, and I heard close to 600 students actually took the exam.

But like in all the drama's I suddenly saw my number, it stood out like a flame in slow motion, number 488. My eyes widened and a giant smile spread on my lips.

"I DID IT! I'M IN!"

I could hear the students around me either 'aww' like they were impressed, or mumble mean things from jealousy. Either way, I had done it, I was going to attend Saotome Acadmy!

I made my way past the crowd, and I couldn't help but start running back to the guys. In my rush to see them, I lost my balance and ran into a guy who was walking up towards the board. I completely lost my balance and fell to the ground, lightly scraping my hands and my knee. It wasn't as painful as it looked, just stung a little.

"Are you alright?!"
I sat on the ground looking at my knee bleeding a little, "OH I'm fine I'm fine, it's doesn't really hurt." I saw him kneel down in front of me and pull out his silk, embroidered handkerchief.
He quickly pressed it against the cut, "You should-"
I looked up at him since he stopped mid-sentence, "Y-Yes?"

But as I looked into his eyes he looked like he saw a ghost. Pain and fear swirled around, but then was replace by frustration and confusion. I couldn't help but pull away from him, standing up. He stood up with me, realising he's frightened me.

But at that moment, a sharp pain flashed through my head. I shut my eyes quickly, raising my hands to my head. In my mind I could suddenly see a young boy running ahead of me, sticking his hand out towards me. "Princess!"

And then it was gone, as fast it had had come, it was gone.

I opened my eyes, a bit dizzy, wobbling in place.

The boy in front of me reached out to balance me, concern in his voice, "Riri-"
"Aya!"

I quickly turned around as Subaru and Maru ran up to me, both looking at the guy next to me with questionable looks. But they ignored him as they started asking what happened to my knee; if I was okay. I managed to keep them calm while pushing them away to leave, distracting them with my acceptance to the academy.

As we walked away I looked back at him, the boy who helped me, standing very lonely, hands clutched at his sides. I squeezed his now bloodied handkerchief in my hand, as I fought the urge to run back to him and apologize for an unknown pain I just caused him.

But what about me? Was that one of my memories?

"Princess!"

No one has ever called me Princess before...

What did this mean?
