"What's that?" Gumi asked, looking at the sword Kaito was carrying. It was black and slightly curved, with colorful decorations on its hilt.

"It's a wakizashi sword," Kaito answered. "Master gave it to me to put in my room. I'm going to hang it up on the wall."

"It looks really cool!" said Gumi, following Kaito up the stairs. "I'll help you hang it up."

As the two were walking down the hall towards Kaito's room, they saw Miku outside hers. She turned as she heard them approach. "Hey," she said. "Look what Master gave me!" She showed them a pale pink fan decorated with flowers. "Isn't it pretty?"

"It is," Gumi agreed. "But why did Master give you and Kaito presents?"

Miku shrugged. "I don't know. But Master said that the fan can't be put in a boy's room."

"And Master told me that I can't put this sword in a girl's room either," Kaito added.

"That's kind of weird," Gumi remarked.

"Anyway, I guess we should go hang this up now," Kaito said to Miku. He and Gumi went down a couple doors to Kaito's room. Gumi opened the door for Kaito, who was carefully holding the sword in both hands. He put the sword down on his bed and dug around in his pockets. He took out two black hooks.

"Can you get a screwdriver and a couple of nails from the toolbox in the closet?" he asked Gumi.

"Sure," she answered. She brought the toolbox over to Kaito. "Where did you get those hooks from?"

"Master gave them to me with the sword," Kaito replied. He stood back and surveyed the wall opposite from his bed. "I think I'll hang it…there." He held the hooks to the wall as Gumi screwed them in. Then he lifted the sword into the hooks.

"Perfect!" Gumi said, admiring how the black sword appeared in front of the pale blue walls. "Hey, how about we go get some ice cream to reward ourselves for our hard work?"

"Ice cream!" Kaito cheered enthusiastically. He and Gumi raced out of his room and down the stairs.

A few weeks passed, and the sword became a familiar decoration on Kaito's wall. He sometimes looked at it, but it mostly went unnoticed.
