First, sorry for the year long hiatus, graduated, got an adult job, got an adult boyfriend, another National Championship (roll tide.) life's been hectic in a great way. I wrote this chapter fast and dirty. It will be taking this story in a new direction but I really need some feedback as too if I'm getting too far away from what is expected of Kyoko. Please read and review. I still do not own "Skip Beat." Thank you.

As the sun set that day, Setsu walked over to where the filming should be wrapping up. Earlier that day the director had decided to go shoot at a different part of the island. It wasn't too far though, and secretly Kyoko enjoyed the outside time now that it was a cooler time of day. Buzzing rang in her ears from the many different insects who were starting to come alive with night fall. Setsu reached the set just as the actors were being released. Her brother was not to be seen and she assumed he was in the trailer having the special effects makeup removed. Setsu had left to take a nap earlier after she was sure the chipmunk wouldn't try to touch her property again. Kyoko needed the break to compose herself and to avoid Ren who would obviously express his distaste for her petty action even while still in the character of Cain. Setsu and Kyoko agreed they didn't want to deal with that earlier. They also agreed that they wanted to be possessive of the tall figure which was now stepping out of the trailer and spotting her started walking over. Kyoko, finally realizing her ugly feelings for Ren hated how love made her act but at the same time decided she will be damned and love him regardless. Still a bit unsure but with the help of Setsu she was quickly gaining the confidence needed to take what was hers. Kyoko and Setsu discussed what had transpired, 'Did we over do it?' Maybe. 'Was it effective?' She watched as Manaka kept her distance this time and gavel sinister grin, 'Most definitely.' With that evil smile still on her face Setsu turned to face her brother. "I've been waiting neesan." She hugged the poker-faced Cain. "Let's go back to the hotel via the nature trail." With a full moon now visible in the dark red sky and with the cool island wind blowing around them mixing up the hot humid air of the day, a feeling of something new was almost tangible. Something was about to happen and for some unexplainable reason Kyoko was looking forward to it.
