After almost permanent hiatus, I have started writing again!
This is my first Angelic Layer fanfic, so please review.
The Next Generation
By Keledrena
Prologue
"Ladies and gentleman, I'm proud to present to you, the youngest person ever to become the winner of the International Tournament, Mihara Kari, and her angel, Yukiko!" The announcer boomed.
The stadium burst into applause as the three year old girl blushed. Newspaper photographers started to yell.
"How about a smile there, Ms. Mihara!"
"Please hold that pose!"
"This is for the Daily Tokyo News!"
"This is for the Japan's International newspaper!"
"Please hold that pose, Ms. Mihara!"
The parents of Hikari exchanged a look and stepped up to the platform.
"This brings back many old memories, doesn't it, Misa?" said Mihara Oujirou to his wife, Misaki, under his breathe.
"Yes, it does."
When they arrived, Hikari buried her face in her mother's shoulder as Misaki picked her up. "Come one sweetie. One picture for the newspapers and then we'll go, okay?"
"Okay."
"Smile!" yelled one of photographers.
Click. Flash. Cameras started taking pictures of the family.
The newspapers the next morning held all sort of headings: Royal Prodigy: Kari-chan Wins the Tournament; The Royal Line Continues: A New Era is Coming.

"Mommy, can Yuu come over to play? Please?" begged Hikari. "Auntie Ringo is going away on a tour around the world next week and she's taking Yuu with her, so I want to say bye to Yuu."
"Well," Misaki wiped her hands on a dishtowel. "Just for a little while, okay?" She picked up the phone and dialed Ringo's number.
"Yay!" Hikari jumped up and down. "He's bringing Knight, and we're going to put blocks in the layer and duel each other!"

"Mommy! Mommy! Look at this!" yelled Hikari, waving Yukiko around. She had climbed up a tree and was balancing on a branch.
Misaki turned around. "Ka-chan! Get off there!" she yelled as she and Oujirou hurried to the tree.
Hikari pouted, but started to climb down. "Fine Mommy."
She slipped. "Ahhh!" she shrieked.
Oujirou managed to catch her, but Yukiko fell onto a rock.
"Don't you ever do that again!"
I'm sorry Mommy, Daddy. But where's- Yuki!"
Miskai picked the angel up and examined her. "She's badly smashed. I'm not sure if Icchan will be able to fix her."
Oujirou said, "We'll get you a new one, Ka-chan." He knew how much an angel meant to a deuce.
"No! I don't want another other one! I want Yuki!" Hikari burst into tears. "I don't want to play Angelic Layer anymore."
So, what do you think? Please reveiw! I'll try to get the next chapter out by the sixteenth (the day after my school ends), but if I get at least ten reviews, I'll have it before then.
