Bianca sighed, "Very well, but be back before she wakes up. She'll become panicked."

Bianca carried Nami into the shadows, taking her back into Ricky's and Justin's dormroom, seeing Saki and Iris. "Hello you two." She placed Nami on the bed.

Stephan smirked, "They'll come after me...or try...and when they do, I'll take my precious Nami back from them." 

Stephan smirked, "Are you going to attack a person that hasn't lifted a finger to you?" He began to laugh. "You bore me. Look around you, at all the innocent bystanders if you tried anything to cause harm to me. If I were you, I would stand down, because I don't think you would want Nami to cry...because you got killed." His voice became colder and harsher. "I'll be watching you, and if I do see a chance, I'll take it. Nami, dear, you have a nice little price on that head...and body of yours. Dead...or alive." He touched the counter and completely froze it, with just a touch. "Heed this warning, my dear. Hell's a prison of the coldest of parts. I'll be your escort...then. Until then, have a wonderful time together, I'll be taking her back." He told Justin.

Nami glared, "You'll have to kill me to take me back to that hateful place! But what good will it do you if you did kill me?"

Stephan chuckled, "All sorts of things, my dear. My magic has far surpassed the forbidden stage. Believe me on that, if nothing else. The dead is just like the living, but controlled." His eyes slanted, snickering. "Fare thee well, sweet Nami, I'll be back." He walked out, and disappearing. 

"Why did he have to appear...?" Nami fell to the ground and Bianca caught her. "Hey Nami!!"

"Let's get back to the dorms and put her to rest." Bianca mentioned. "She's out cold!"

Stephan put his hands up in the air, "My my, hostile aren't we? I just came to greet a fair lady that I haven't seen in years."

Nami grew angry, "Your the one to talk! I don't want to see you! Not what you have done to me! Leave me alone!" Bianca went to Nami, to calm her down. "Have you done enough torturing to her? Just leave her so she can be happy."

Stephan smiled, "Oh? But I came here because her family is giving her another chance." Nami shook her head, "I"m happy with the people I"m around with now. Justin, Bianca, Ricky...even Nightmare."

Bianca nodded, "All right. To the arcade then." They walked to the arcade, entering the crowded building. "There. They are on the D.D.R. machine."

Nami smiled. The song had finished and they both had the same perfect score. She chuckled, "Looks like you'll be a star too on here." The crowded chatted and began to thin out. When it did, Nami's face went pale.

"It's so good to see you, again, Naminara." His eyes glared at Nami. It was Stephan.

Bianca gasped, "It can't be..." Bianca ran to Nami and Justin, "I don't think so, Stephan!" "B-Bianca?? Ricky?" Nami's fun, cheery self, went into a defensive and scared being. Her past came back to the surface and she didn't like it. She hid behind Justin, glaring at Stephan. "Go away!"

Nami smiled, "Let's go." Once the arrows and music began to play, she closed her eyes, again, swaying to the beats, moving like water, and having a fire dancing on top of it. (Not literally, of course lol)

Bianca sighed, "They may plan to get rid of you and Justin, to get to Nami...I don't know, but what you have heard, could lead to something far worse than I expected..."

~Meanwhile~

Stephan put his dark denim jacket on and left his home. He walked out into the sun and smiled, his red eyes gleaming at the brightness. "Glorious day to reunite with my ex-fiance...don't you think?" His British accent true to his malicious tone.

A man, bowed, nodded, "Yes sire. Markic has done well, keeping her friends busy...on trivial matters."

Stephan grinned, "Good. I hope you'll deal with her new encounter of happiness?" He nodded, "I have it planned out, sire."

Stephan laughed, "Good to hear, let's go." He walked into town, the wind blowing his black-blue hair back.

Nami giggled, "All right, next song then." Afterwards she made sure he was on Nightmare, along with her. "There, same level. Pick a song." She smiled, hearing the crowd they accumulated. They began to have a cheering session for both Nami and Justin.

They crowd was heard from outside.

Bianca smiled, "Seems like they are attracting a lot of attention. Anyway, it doesn't matter where we go. What information did you attain while listening to them?"

Bianca smiled and nodded. They paid for the food and drinks and left, before Markic did. As soon as they reach the humid hair, Bianca sighed, "Looks like the Arcade is packed...as usual. Especially when Nami's in town." She smiled though knowing that Nami and Justin were having a good time.

"Where to now...since the Arcade is about to bust open again." She looked at Ricky.

~

Nami smiled, "Just feel the music. Don't worry about getting a score or anything." She made sure she was Nightmare and he was on Normal. She didn't like the slow pace that Normal gave. The faster for her, the better. "Ohh, I haven't heard this one. Challenging." She smiled at Justin as her arrows shot across her screen and his flew as well. The difference was she had more arrows to deal with on the screen and Justin didn't. "Just have fun!" She giggled as the audience surrounding them, clapped to the beat.

Bianca giggled, "Not Justin. Naminara, but anyway, I guess we can still sit here. We can't stay too long though, because he'll catch on if we leave after him." She sipped her frozen coffee through her straw.

~

The song finished as Nami opened her eyes, seeing a little trick as normal jealous competitors do. Having a sly move, he tried to trip her, but seeing through the jealous, jumped, flipping on her hands, ending with a perfect score. The owner laughed, "Always like the jealous type, trying to play dirty. She's got talent. Hey, why don't you give it try? On Regular mode with Nami? Just for fun that is, I see that you are with her. It's good to see her with a smile on her face as vibrant as that one."

Nami wiped the sweat off her face as she sat on the machine talking with the other players. "Hey come on Justin! Just for fun!" She smiled, waving to him, yelling over the crowd.

Nami puffed out her cheeks, "Don't start on it too." She tied her hair back into a pony tail as her first competitor stepped on the other one. The competitors always chose what song on the hardest level, Nightmare.

Nami looked at Justin and smiled, "Watch. And learn." The song chosen was Beethoven. 9th Symphony.

"My favorite one." She smirked as the arrows began to fastly appear the screen. The owner looked at Justin, "Watch her eyes. You'll see why she's called 'Dark Queen'.

As the song began and arrows flew on the screen, she closed her eyes, matching the rythm of the music into her mind, allowing her body to freely move. Most of the beats were perfect on Naminara's screen as the competitor missed and booed on a few.

~

Bianca closed her eyes, "I guess we have bad news to deliver Nightmare tonight. She may have better chances." She chuckled, "Let's check out the Arcade, I think it'll be a sight to see. Just keep your mind clear or you'll heard some nasty words competitors say. Or do you want to keep more tabs on that guy?" She referred Markic.

Nami smiled and they walked to the arcade. Once they were inside the Arcade, Nami became the star. Many people smiled at her, "It's the Dark Queen!"

She stamped a hand on her forehead, "Great...I forgot they have a nickname for me..."

The owner of the arcade store smiled, "About time you got here, you have some competitors. They are wanting to see if they can beat your top scores."

"As usual. Nothing changes, but it's a good excerise." She smiled at Justin. "Are you good at D.D.R.?"

Bianca chuckled, "He knows, that he was being followed...Sly bastard."

~

Nami smiled, "I think we can walk there. It should be cool enough for it. Also, your car is safer here than at the arcade."

Nami smiled, "I'm not sure. I usually just walk around town, window shopping. Also there is an arcade about a few buildings down. I forgot to mention that there is one particular game I really good at. Dancing. D.D.R. as it's called." She stood up, thankful to have worn flexible jeans. "I'm not the couch potato type. I go and don't stop, until sunset." She smiled looking at Justin. She caught Lisa and waved goodbye. Nami always left a tip, no matter what she ordered. Lisa smiled, "You two come again soon!" She shouted. Nami nodded and smiled.

Bianca smirked, "Interesting...Markic appears to have a majical (I spelt it wrong for a reason =P) sheild around him..." She whispered.
