Chapter 4

Since EXO worked really hard, their manager let them take a break. Hinata is on Kris's shoulders, and they were about to pull a prank on Baekhyun, Tao, Suzume, and Takara, with Chanyeol luring them to Kris and Hinata. "You ready to pull the best prank ever, Hinata?" Kris asked. Hinata replies, "You bet I am Kris!"

He hands her a scary mask while he puts on the cloth. Chanyeol says, "Kris. Hinata. They're here." Hinata giggles and says, "Let's go." Hoshiko and Kenji see Tao, Baekhyun, Suzume, and Takara walk towards the direction and ask, "Where are you guys going?"

"Chanyeol wanted to show us something," Suzume says. Takara says, "I bet it's a drum solo. Or a freestyle rap show. Or better yet, his yummy ketchup sausage veggie stir fry he made!" "I sure hope there's no trick up his sleeve," Baekhyun says.

Kenji says, "I bet Hinata is up to something." "You wanna see what's going on?" Hoshiko says. They follow them. When they reach Chanyeol, Tao asks, "What do you want to show us."

Hinata and Kris pop out, growling and booing at them. Tao and Suzume scream and try to kick them, and Takara and Baekhyun scream, "AAHHH! AHH! AH SAVE US!" "Alright joke's over Hinata," Kenji says. He pulls off the mask while Hoshiko gets the cloth.

Hinata and Kris laugh so hard. Kris is like, "Oh that was funny. You should've seen the looks on your faces." "You're the best prankster ever Kris!" Hinata says.

Chanyeol gets a text from Xiumin. He then says, "Xiumin Hyung said we should meet up in the practice room. He said Mayu whipped us up some food from Cafe Utako." "I love their food!" Baekhyun says, "Wait a minute, how did she prepare dishes that quick from a popular restaurant like that?"

"Mayu's parents own Cafe Utako Baekhyun," Hoshiko says. Kenji says, "She is gonna become the future owner after college, so her parents ask her to practice cooking the meals on the menu when she arrived in Korea." Takara says, "Yes! Now I can eat 8 bowls of ramen, 4 plates of sushi, 10 beef skewers, 7 rice balls, and 2 cakes!"

"And we thought Xiumin Hyung ate so much," Baekhyun says. Chanyeol says, "I just hope she made enough that will feed even the biggest stomachs." Hoshiko laughs and says, "Don't you mean the person with five stomachs." "Come on Hinata," Kenji says, "I think we need to let Kris take a break, his shoulders are probably hurting."

"Okay Uncle Kenji," Hinata says, pouting, "but I like being up here. Can I at least let Chanyeol carry me and play with Baekhyun after we eat?" "We suppose so," both Kenji and Hoshiko say.

Hinata says, "Yay! I get to be carried by EXO!" She runs to Chanyeol and he puts her on his shoulder, "I like it up here! You're so tall Chanyeol!" "I'm not as tall as Kris Hyung though Hinata," Chanyeol says. Baekhyun says, "But his ears are big," earning the death glare from Chanyeol.

(practice room)

Everyone digs into the dishes Mayu created. Sehun tries the kimchi curry and says, "Ah. This tastes just as great as the kimchi curry at the Cafe Utako in Seoul." "I guess it is since it's made by the original Cafe Utako's owner's daughter," says Kai. Mayu says, "Thank you. Mother and father are making international dishes and are trying to get them in the other Cafe Utako restaurants located around the world."

Takara is on her 6th bowl of ramen and says, "May I have more please?" "I suppose so," says Mayu, "but just because I made enough to feed everyone doesn't mean you can hog it up Takara." "Well at least there won't be any leftovers," D.O. says.

Sehun asks, "Hoshiko. Kenji. Mind if I ask about what those Dark Musicians said?" "I guess Sehun," says Hoshiko, "what is it?" "Who exactly is this Hitomi person that they were talking about, and why are they trying to keep her out of your future?" Sehun asks.

Kenji says, "On me and Hoshiko's second date, we met Hitomi. She claimed her parents were in danger in the future, so we all went to the future to help her." "It wasn't until we reached the future Dark Music Kingdom when we realized me and Kenji were Hitomi's mother and father," Hoshiko says, "we are the future rulers of the Music Kingdom, and Hitomi is the heir."

"So that's why you two are engaged?" Kai asked. Katrinna Mae says, "They got engaged so they can make sure they have Hitomi in the future. And if it wasn't for Hoshiko turning herself and Kenji into pure angels, then they wouldn't be able to be there in the future."

Lay says, "What I'm more curious about is why they target Hoshiko?" "I'm the strongest princess of the Music Kingdom because I have a forbidden power that's really strong," Hoshiko says, "the former queen carried it before she left the Music Kingdom. The queen of the Dark Music Kingdom has the same kind of fighting style I have, but hers is an evil version of mine."

"Because of this," Neji says, "Queen Kurami sent the Dark Musicians on Earth to cause the train wreck the day after Christmas when my little cousin was four to kill her father and take her." Suzume says, "And when that failed, they knocked the train carts down until one cart squished her father to death in front of her."

"However, they failed to get Hoshiko," Akemi says. Hikaru says, "So they gave up on trying to find her and take her power until Hoshiko fought Wakana and her brothers." "And on the day of your father's funeral, did Kenji give you something?" Kai asks. Hoshiko says, "Yes, the guitar pick he use to own as a child."

She pulled out her gold guitar pick and showed it to EXO. Chanyeol was like, "Wow. A gold guitar pick. I've always wanted one if those." "Kenji gave it to me so I can have happy thoughts about that day instead of the bad ones," says Hoshiko, "I mean, it's bad enough me and Mom had to watch him like that, but it's even worse to see him go into the ground in a casket he will never awaken in or get out of.

"To make matters worse, I really want the Dark Musicians to go down because of them telling me that what happened to Dad was not accidental. They told me that they murdered him in cold blood. So I'm gonna avenge him."

"Is that so Princess Hoshiko," Wakana says, "Oh you touch my heart. Not." She and the other Dark Musicians arrive so they can fight.
