I'm in an updating mood. I'm planning to finish Episode 5 before I sleep. I would if I can though. And who knows? I might make season one longer than I originally thought! Anyway, I should type Episode 3 now when I'm still fresh of ideas.
Episode: 3
Season: 1
Name: Story retold, Nixme Arrives

Recap:
"Though could you tell us more about yourself? I feel like I need to know something." Yamira explained.
"Err sure." Kiku replied, back to her old self.
And so they walked to Yamira's house.
While they were walking...
"What made you feel like you need to know something about me?" Kiku suddenly asked.
"Well your cloak and your last name." she said calmly.
"Now that you mention it..." Shiawase suddenly said.
"What?" she asked, confused.
"Well... We're here already so we better get inside. Kinda cold tonight neh?" Yamira said.
'Neat house' Kiku thought.
"Why thank you." Yamira said. Since she's psychic. But Kiku doesn't know that yet. So she looked confused.
"So..." Shiawase started to say.
"So what?" Kiku asked.
"So what's the story?" Shiawase asked.
"Story?" Kiku is slow, and she is confused.
"Story of your life." Yamira said.
"O~kay. That sounded weird but sure. I've got no reason to hide anything anymore." she said calmly.
"Well, I don't know what to say, could you ask me the questions?" she said calmly.
"Yay!~ Neh, Yamira let's take turns to ask questions!" Shiawase said happily.
"Okay. Anyway, you're from the Koujirou clan right?" Yamira started.
She twitched for a second. "Yeah. What about it?" she said like it was nothing.
"Well your clan is really secretive on a lot of things." Yamira stated.
"Yeah! Why did you show your face and told us your name and now your staying with us!" Shiawase said not stopping at a word.
"Well, it all started yesterday in the late afternoon." she said and frowned. ( Like she was smiling before haha )
"Our hideout was infiltrated and was set on fire. I don't really know all the details because I was taking a nap when it happend." she said with a bored face. 'I was having a good dream at that...' she thought.
"You were taking a nap?! Well you're a heavy sleeper!" Shiawase said very surprised.
"How did you escape then?" Yamira asked the next question.
"My brother woke me up. And me and my other brothers and my sister ran. We stayed in a cave somewhat near the hideout." she said as she remembered running towards the tree.
"You have brothers and a sister?! Where are they now!" Shiawase is highly hyper. And she seems surprised in everything.
"I don't really know. When I woke up they're all gone." she hissed at the thought.
"Are there any survivors other than you and your brothers and sisters?" Yamira asked the next question.
"That I do not know." she said simply.
"Eh... Tragic story! Aren't you sad?" Shiawase asked.
"I couldn't care less." Kiku said calmly. ( You're faking it! )
"Cold of you." Yamira stated.
"Say what you like. I don't really care." she said again calmly. ( Really? )
'How rude! I'll burn her face right now!' Shiawase thought angrily.
"Shiawase! Be nice for goodness--..." Yamira yelled and suddenly realized Kiku was looking at them awfully confused.
"Why are you yelling at her?" she asked, that confused face still on her face.
"Eh...heheheh. Nevermind please." Yamira said nervously.
"Ora! Yamira-chan is nervous! This is very rare!" Shiawase jumped at her seat.
"You still hav--" Kiku was cut of by Shiawase's loud voice.
"Neh! Tell us more about your clan! And why do you have a bandage on your left arm?" Shiawase asked.
"Err... My dad says its a gift. But..." she twitched.
"But?" Yamira asked.
"I think its a curse." she said and held it tightly.
"A curse? What do you mean?" Yamira asked, and looked at the arm.
"Well, when its exposed to air, this other part of me appears. And that part of me wreaks havoc everytime. Though it gives me abilities that I never could have done." she said while she loosen her grip.
"And you had it since you were young?" Shiawase asked, seriously this time.
"Yeah. But for the past month. That other part of me goes out on its own even with 3 layers of bandages on it." she said and tightened her grip again.
"And you remember all you did when that side of you comes out?" Yamira asked.
"Some of it." she said and loosen her grip again.
"Why did your father said it was a gift?" Shiawase asked this time.
"Because it gives me tremendous power." she said and tightend her grip yet again.
"Then why do you think its a curse?" Yamira asked.
"I don't need power... I'm strong enough... And it makes me do things I don't want." she said and tightend her grip more.
"I see..." Yamira said.
"Hey, I'm back!" a voice said from the door.
"Nixme! Any luck?" Shiawase asked the girl.
"Nope. Who's she?" she noticed the new face.
"Kiku Koujirou." Yamira stated.
"Koujirou? Anyway, I'm Nixme. Nice to meet you!" she said and smiled.
"Pleasure to meet you." she said silently.
"Well she seems nice." Nixme said.
"She's Rukawa's sister." Yamira suddenly said.
'How the hell did she know that?' Kiku thought, surprised. But not showing it.
"Oh? Well how did you met her?" she asked and went to the kitchen.
"It's a long story! Go cook first I'm hella hungry!" Shiawase complained.
"Haha. Okay okay." she said.
And so NiKiShiYa was formed.
