"Haaah haaah haaaah…"

Chiyo was running late as she came into her school wearing her summer school uniform.

Her dress shirt was slightly unbuttoned, revealing her cleavage, her skirt was really short, revealing her thighs, she was wearing a tied cardigan on her hips though.

Through the hallway, she ran, carrying her briefcase with her.

As she stepped in though, a certain scene unfolded.

Rina, was there, sat in the middle of a couple of other gyarus.

She was wearing her summer uniform as well, with her shirt unbuttoned revealing her cleavage.

She was wearing a necklace though and had her nails painted as her hand covered her face.

She seemed to be glaring at Chiyo and so did the other girls.

She noticed also, that the other students' eyes were turned towards her.

They were whispering and muttering to each other.

"Slut."

Suddenly, that word came out from a random student's mouth.

She didn't know who it was from due to everyone whispering to each other, but she was sure she heard it.

"Whore."

She heard a similar word again.

"She'd fuck anyone, wouldn't she?"

Her eyes was just turned at the ground as she heard people whisper and speak insulting stuff while looking at her.

"Good morning, Mayou-san."

The only one who broke the silence though, and the only one who showed her a smile, was a small girl with light green hair with a tulip on her hair.

She showed Chiyo a bright smile that felt as if it changed her entire world.

Everyone became silent as they saw this scene.

From the side though, stared Rina.

She showed an angry expression as if she didn't like what she saw.

"Tch-", she then clicked her tongue as this happened.

"Uhh...mom, is that your phone?"

"No, Chi-chan…Daddy's got my phone with him in the other room."

Chiyo and her mom were both lying on the same bed sleeping next to each other.

Chiyo was wearing the night gown Akiko gave her while Chiyo's mom was wearing a similar one, but for her size.

They were covered by a thick white blanket as they woke up from sleeping on what seems to be a master's bedroom.

"He's probably feeling frustrated since he can't spend some time with your mommy."

"D-don't tell me that. Y-you two just went out to a motel a week ago, right? Y-you don't need to do p-perverted stuff today."

"Come on, I bet you and boyfriend-kun would be like us one day."

"N-no we're not!"

*rrriiiinnnngg riiiiinnnnngg*

"Isn't that from your cellphone behind you, Chi-chan?"

Chiyo slightly pulled her torso up, slipping the blanket away from her.

Her large breasts lightly bounced as she was rid of the blanket.

Her night gown looked really alluring and sexy, that it felt like she was modeling for a magazine.

"I bet Akira-kun would enjoy this sight."

"Sh-shut up! D-don't bring him into this!"

She then stood up and saw her smartphone ringing on top of what seems to be a small shelf with a lamp next to it.

'Hmmm? Who's number is this?'

She decided to pick up her phone and answer the call.

*click*

"Hello, who is this-"

<"Hey, Chi-chan.">

Chiyo's eyes widened as she heard the voice that answered the phone.

It was a female voice, that seemed quite familiar.

"Chi-chan? Is something the matter?"

"N-no, mom. I-I'm just gonna head out of my room for a second."

"Okay, come back when you're done."

Chiyo's mom decided to lie back to the bed to sleep.

It was in the middle of the night when the caller suddenly decided to ring Chiyo's phone.

"You…how did you get my number?"

<"What's the matter? Can't your best friend call you on the phone just like old times?">

"Everything's done, right? You were the one who decided to do things that way. So can you please just leave me alone-"

<"Are you really sure you want to tell me that, Chi-chan?">

"What are you-"

*click*

The caller suddenly hung up in the middle of their conversation.

'What in the world is she planning? Please tell me it isn't-'

*bbbrrt bbbrrrt*

*You've got mail!*

Her phone suddenly vibrated as a text message seemed to be suddenly sent to her number.

She raised an eyebrow at this as she opened the message.

<"Come at this location if you want to see him ever again.">

A certain address was written in the message and an attached image.

The image slowly loaded as Chiyo's eyes slowly widened with it.

It was a picture of Akira, wearing the clothes he was wearing earlier, but he was tied to a cheap, broke down, dirty bed with rope.

His hands and feet were tied down to the corners of the bed.

<"Be sure to bring your 'purity' too...

...Chi-chan.">

Chiyo showed an irritated look at this as she fell down on her knees.

'Rina…you'

__________________________________________________

"So what now?"

"We'll just wait for her. Just stay down there."

"Come on, when are you gonna give us our reward? We can't just wait here all night. What if she never comes?"

"You want me, don't you?"

"…W-well, yeah..."

"You'll have a hell of a night later, kay? Just sit tight. I bet you'll enjoy tearing her out as well so don't worry."

"Alright. But if she doesn't come in an hour or so, I'm-"

"You're what? Don't tell me you're gonna leave, baby?"

"…I…I'm gonna stay…"

"That's what I thought. Good boy. Now, get back down there, okay?"

"O…kay…"

Akira's eyes slowly opened as he heard the scene that was in front of him.

Rina just stood there as the guy left the room.

"Where…am I…?"

Akira asked as he opened his eyes.

The ceiling was just dirty stone.

Cobwebs and dirt was everywhere as the cracks on the wall dropped dust.

"Oh, you're finally awake."

After a few moments, Akira finally noticed his situation.

"What the!?"

His wrists and legs were bound on to a cheap matress without bedsheets or blankets or whatever.

He seemed to be in an abandoned building or warehouse of some kind and was tied to a bed.

"What's going on? Let me out here, you fucking-"

"What? Don't tell me, you're going to talk bad about me?"

Rina slowly crawled into the bed, wearing the dress she was wearing earlier.

Her make-up, her slightly seen underwear, her stockings and garter belt, it all felt really seductive to look at as she crawled onto Akira.

"W-w-what are you doing?"

"Isn't it obvious?"

Rina placed her hand on his belt and slowly opened it.

"Oh, would you look at that!"

Akira's thing started growing as he Rina touched her.

'Shit…why am I so goddamn horny… I wanna…I wanna do her so bad…'

For some reason, Akira's lust felt like it grew even more.

"You're really happy to see me, aren't you?"

Akira's eyes widened as Rina's handly slowly gripped his thing.

"W-wait…what are you doing!?"

"Oh come on, just stop and let it happen…"

She started rubbing him slowly…

Jerking his thing up and down with her hand.

"Ah! W-wait…s-stop…uh…wh-what are you…."

"Come on, baby. Just relax, okay?"

"Uhh…wait…please….ah…"

"Oh come on, don't be such a baby. Do you really like Chi-chan that much?"

Suddenly though, Rina's hand suddenly stopped as she said that.

"Chi-chan?"

"Don't you want me too?"

Rina crawled closer to Akira and slowly pulled the straps of her dress down.

Her bra became seen as she lowered her dress.

"Y-you…"

"Come on, you want to get inside me…right?"

Rina's eyes glowed again as the glow on Akira's eyes slowly disappeared again.

"I….I…."

Suddenly, Rina was suddenly pushed back lightly as she felt something poke her butt.

"Oh…You've got a real package down there."

"W-we just met…w-we shouldn't do this…"

"Really? Are you serious about that?"

Rina slowly took off her dress revealing her stomach and bellybutton…

"That's not all that's in there."

She then turned around and bent back as she took off her dress lower, revealing her panties and her large plump ass.

"Y-you…w-wait…I…I…uh…"

"I'll give you a night you won't forget."

Just like that, she threw her dress on the side as she laid down on Akira's chest.

She pulled his shirt upwards as she slowly unveiled his abs.

"Your body's something too…"

Rina smiled at this and slowly touched his chest.

Akira couldn't help but gulp as this happened.

"Wh-why are you doing this…th-there's no way it's because you love me, right…? A-are you sexually frustrated or something…Y-you don't have to do all this…to…well…uhhh…"

Akira was trying to look for the words to say but was having a hard time doing so.

Normally, he would be the tough guy, but being a virgin that haven't been this sexually connected with a girl before, this experience is really getting to him.

"I supposed it's ok to say it now, huh. It's fine either way. You can't help her now…"

"What do you-ahh…"

Rina started nibbling Akira's ear again as she continued.

The sensation of her half naked breasts pressed on him, the feeling of her soft skin and her actions made Akira feel even hotter than before.

She then backed away a little to stare at his eyes

Her eyes glowed once again as his eyes lost it's glow.

"Tell me…what do you want?"

"I…I want you..."

"You want to do what to me?"

"I…I want to fuck you so bad…"

"Finally, you're thing down there has been growing for quite a while now. At least now both of you are honest."

She showed him a seductive smile as she slowly unbuckled his belt again.

"Chi-chan and I...used to be best friends a few years back."

'Chi-chan? Is she talking about…Chiyo?'

"I used to think she's the person I would always look up to and care about as well, you know...but she...she betrayed me…"

'Betrayed?'

"Back then, I've tried to get back at her, but I failed. Because of that, my life was ruined. My dad helped me get out of that shitty place, but he froze my credit cards and didn't let me use my bank accounts again. Do you know how fucked up my life is right now? Most of what I get now is just money I get from guys I randomly fuck."

'…what is she?'

"Chi-chan has always been the one everyone likes, the one everyone loves. And she had always…always…been stealing the guys I fall for…

…So now, I'm gonna do the same for her…"

'…'

"She doesn't do anything except do that shitty magic tricks of hers, make a few jokes and smile and the guys all go drooling at her. Just because she's got a prettier face, she's always been given everything. The only way I thought I could compete…was doing this."

She finally unbuckled Akira's belt and started pulling off his boxers.

"Ahhhh…"

Rina started stroking his thing directly, slowly put her tongue all over it and started licking it.

'Shit…that feels so good.'

"You guys are all alike. Just a little stroke down here and you're immediately 'in love'. All my ex-s did say I was an expert."

"Aaahhh!!"

She started sucking him off, making Akira feel twitchy.

'Shit…ahhh…!'

*slurp slurp slurp*

Her head went up and down on his thing as she kept sucking intensely, her face looked as if she was sucking on a straw.

"S-slow down…I…I can't handle it…!"

*slurp slurp slurp*

Rina then pulled her face away as she wiped her mouth.

"Don't tell me you're done with just this, we haven't even started with the main show yet."

She stopped stroking him as she sat on Akira's thing.

"Right now, she's probably on her way here. When she comes, she'll be greeted by a surprise…"

'Surprise?'

She suddenly unhooked her bra, revealing her large breasts and pink nipples at Akira.

'Holy fuck...'

Akira couldn't help but feel like he had his jaw drop as he saw her large things bounce out from her bra.

"Do you know? There's a bunch of guys at the lower floor right now, waiting for Chi-chan to come. They've got baseball bats, wine bottles. They've also got some of the biggest dicks I've ever seen."

Rina slowly stood up as she planned to take off her panties.

"Once she comes here, I'll make sure to help her finally throw away that 'purity' she's so proud about. They've got all sorts of tools to break open that pussy of hers and make her bleed and scream for help all while watching the guy she likes be fucked by me…"

Hearing this, Akira's eyebrows slowly pointed down as anger suddenly filled his eyes.

His eyes' glow was still lost, but for some reason, it felt like his emotion was different.

Finally, she was able to take it off.

Just like that she held Akira's thing in her hands as she aimed to insert it in her hole.

"So how about…we start right-"

Before she could continue though, she noticed something...

"Huh?"

The bed started shaking as this happened.

__________________________________________________

"We found her."

Chiyo glared at the men as she entered.

A large muscular guy, wearing what seems to be dark clothing came in with an evil grin behind her.

It was inside what seems to be a dark warehouse.

There were lots of weaponry and stuff that looked cylinder near them.

Baseball bats, cans of drinks, there were even nails and spiked balls around them.

Chiyo didn't know what they were for, considering she went by herself, but knew it was all bad news.

"I'm here. Where the hell is Ishikawa?"

"Oh you don't have to worry about him."

"Really? Then what about Ri-chan?"

"Ri-chan? Do you mean boss? She's up there, probably enjoying herself with your boyfriend."

"…what?"

"Hahaha. We don't know why, but missy up there seems to really hate you. Apparently she wanted you watch her having 'fun' with your boyfriend as we also have fun here."

"What the hell are you…?"

"You're a virgin, right? So blood from down there wouldn't be as distracting even if we insert these bad boys up there."

A guy took a spiked ball from the ground and showed it at her.

"Where the hell is Ishikawa and Ri-chan? Just tell me where they are!"

Chiyo showed a disgusted look but just immediately ignored his words and asked them about the two.

"You don't understand, don't you? Boss is having 'fun' with him. Right now, they're probably fucking like rabbits up there."

Chiyo's eyes widened as she heard this.

"I…see…"

"Well, that doesn't matter now. How about we just get to it-"

Suddenly, as the guy tried to grab her.

His eyes widened as he realized…

His hand phased through her.

"What the fuck just…?"

From outside the warehouse, near the corner of the entrance, stood the real Chiyo.

She then closed her hand into a fist as the violet glow from her hand disappeared.

'Good thing I used an illusion out there. It would've been really bad if I was just left there alone…'

Chiyo stared at her hand as the man's words echoed in his head.

["Boss is having 'fun' with him. Right now, they're probably fucking like rabbits up there."]

'If it was the real me that went inside…what would have happened to me…?'

Her eyes started tearing up as she thought of Akira's face.

'Guess…he's just another guy after all…'

Chiyo was just about to walk away, feeling melancholic, when suddenly…

*BBBBBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM*

"What the…?"

"What the hell? What's going on?"

Chiyo's attention went back to the place as she turned back to eye at the scene from the entrance.

'…What was that…?'

The debris of smoke and dust covered the a part of the air, making it hard to see what just happened there…

Suddenly though, they finally noticed.

Akira was standing there, wearing only his boxers, with an angry expression as his arms were covered with green air.

For some reason, the door before the place was smashed away.

"You- what the hell? The fuck are you doing here? Weren't you with boss-"

"I'M GOING TO KILL ALL YOU FUCKS!"

Unlike usual, Akira seemed extremely outraged.

He immediately charged onto one of the muscular guys and…

*BAAAAAAAAMMM*

"GAAAAHHHH!!"

His punch made him spit out blood as the guy crashed a certain distance away.

'Ishikawa…'

Chiyo had wide eyes as she watched the scene.

"Shit! GET HIM!"

The other guys quickly ran towards him trying to take him down.

"DON'T YOU EVER FUCKING DARE TOUCH HER!"

*BAAAAAAAAMMM*

"AAUGGHH!!"

Akira quickly charged onto another guy and punched his head, making him crash onto a wall.

"GOT HIM!"

One of the men quickly took a hold of Akira as he put his arms around his shoulders.

"FUCK OFF!"

*SSSWWWOOOOOSSSH*

"GGGAAAAHHH!!"

*BAAM*

"AAAAAHHHH!!!"

Akira quickly elbowed him away, throwing him to another punk.

"YOU!"

Another guy quickly swung his fist at Akira, but before it could reach…

"DIE, YOU BASTARD!"

*BAAAAAAAAMMM*

"GAAAAHHHH!!"

Akira quiickly turned and elbowed him from the back.

Chiyo was intently watching as it happened.

As if it was some sort of monster, Akira smashed the punks away with ease.

Just like that, all the punks were down in the ground bloody.

"Haaah...haaah...haah..."

Akira panted as his rage slowly subsided.

Suddenly though, a certain figure suddenly approached him from behind.

"What the fuck did you just do!?"

It was Rina.

She seemed to be wearing her dress and underwear again.

It seemed half-assed though, since she seemed to have rushed putting on her clothes.

"You idiot! I was gonna fuck you! I was gonna make you cum! You wanted to have sex with me and I was giving it to you! Why the hell did you have to ruin it-"

Rina avoided the debris and stood next to the doorway, trying to not to get close to the situation.

…but even though she was far away.

Akira's rage was still not done as he walked towards her.

"Wh-what are you doing? You're not gonna punch a girl, right? Hey-"

Rina seeing him walk closer made her tremble, as he slowly went closer and closer to her, her fear got more noticeable.

She seemed stiff as a rock though as she stood there.

"Y-you…wait-"

*BAAAAAAAAMMMMM*

Rina couldn't moved a muscle as it happened.

Akira's fist quickly made a hole on the wall beside her.

"Don't you ever try to hurt her again."

Rina suddenly fell to the ground as she lost consciousness.

The fear and the sudden shock caused her to lose her mental function in that moment..

Chiyo stood there, watching the whole scene feeling surprised.

"Ishikawa-kun…"

Hearing this, Akira slowly turned around to look at her…but before he could see her…

"GO! GO! GO!"

Suddenly, a group of saviors and supports came in the area.

"What?"

Chiyo was shocked at this and wondered what was going on.

"Neutralize him! Quick!"

Elasticity ordered to States.

"I'm on it!"

"Elasticity-sensei, what's going on-"

Suddenly, States in her liquid form suddenly turned into a ball of liquid as she jumped at Akira's face.

A couple of Savior suddenly ran at Akira and quickly forcefully lock his hands.

"AAAUUGGHH!"

"What are you guys doing….!? You're hurting him-"

"Not really, Mayou-san."

Suddenly, from behind her, came Kana, seemingly part of this operation.

"We're just making him unconscious."

"UHHHH…."

Akira's face was stuck in the liquid ball states turned to.

Due to him lacking oxygen, his body slowly stopped him from functioning, and thus…he fell unconscious.

"Why did you…?"

"Akira's still captured in her ability after all."

"Ability?"

"The one that girl has."

Kana approached Akira as he pointed at Rina.

"What…happened…?"

"I'll explain later."

The saviors took hold of Akira and lifted his torso slightly as they used their other hands to spread Akira's eyes open.

A pentagram showed up in Kana's eyes as she kneeled down and stared at Akira's.

"Ishikawa..."

__________________________________________________

It was a bright sunny day in a certain highschool at that time.

The leaves were falling but they were still as green as ever.

Outside, was a light green haired small petite girl, with a tulip on her hair watering the flowers on the garden beside the school.

Inside the school, in a class 1-B…

"Your card…is the ace of hearts!", Chiyo said.

"That's right!"

"Oh my god, how'd you like, figure it out?"

"That's amazing."

Chiyo was sat in a circle with a couple of other girls.

Most of them seemed to be wearing cardigans, short skirts, make-up, all in all, they were all fashionable.

Chiyo was wearing what seemed to be the summer uniform of her high school.

She seemed quite younger than she is at that time.

Her cleavage was in display as is her long legs from her short skirt.

"That's a magician's secret! I'll never tell you...

That's unless you pay me 1000 yen!"

"Oh come on! Can we at least have a discount?"

"Hehehe. I'm just joking. A true magician never reveals her tricks.", Chiyo replied to them.

"So…what magic did you use to charm Kuro-senpai, hmmm?"

"Yeah! I heard he just like, confessed to you behind the school. Come on, tell us all about it!"

"Magic? N-no...haha. Where did you girls hear that from anyways?"

"Isn't that obvious? From Rina of course!"

Rina sat in front of Chiyo, showing a somehow indifferent look.

She was wearing their summer uniform too, and just like Chiyo's, her cleavage was in display, as is her long legs.

She wasn't as sexy and alluring as Chiyo though, as her curves weren't as developed and large as Chiyo's.

She has make-up on and was wearing a gray cardigan that was loosely worn.

Her long blonde dyed twintail were colored brown back then.

"R-ri-chan? You saw us?"

"Of course I did. You know I hang out in the back of the school a lot. There's no way I could like, not have seen you two."

"R-ri-chan…that was-"

"Oh right, didn't you like him, Rina? Seems like Chiyo stole him from you, hehehe."

"Come on, don't be like that. Rina's really taking it hard."

"Ri-chan, ummm…I didn't mean to…"

"I know, alright. He confessed to you out of his own will again. You didn't expect it. Bla bla bla. You don't have to like, tell me that."

"I'm sorry. I didn't even expect he would like me. I just-"

"I know, I know. It's fine. I bet he could be my boyfriend in a week or so, so don't worry."

"That's our Rina. You're always the best manhunter out of all of us."

"You can do it, Ri-chan. I'm really sorry about what happened. I promise I'll help you-"

"I don't need your help, Chi-chan."

Rina suddenly interrupted her.

"I can make him fall for me on my own, kay? Just please…don't like, talk to him again, alright?"

"…Okay…"

__________________________________________________

"Ta-da!"

Chiyo opened her hand as to show what was inside it.

A 500 yen coin was in there.

"How'd you get it there? Are you sure you're not really using black magic or stuff like that?"

"I'm 100% human, hehe. My magic just really knows no bounds!"

Chiyo was sat inside what seems to be a sweets store.

She and the other gyarus, except Rina was there, hanging out and chatting with each other.

They were on a round table just messing around, when suddenly…

"Oh! Rinababy! You're here!"

One of the gyarus quickly got up and hugged Rina, who seemed to have just entered.

"How's my favorite bitch doing? Did you have a fun time with your boyfriend?"

They hugged each other for a moment, before they backed away and chatted.

"Nah…"

Rina then pulled a sit from the table as she sat down.

The other girl did so as well.

"I just…broke up with him."

"What?"

Chiyo showed a surprised expression as she heard this.

"Didn't you like, just become his girlfriend 3 days ago? Why did you break up with him so suddenly?"

"Hah, don't tell me he's got a tiny dick or something."

"G-girls..."

Chiyo felt a little bewildered by what they were saying.

"That's not it. He's like, really packing down there actually. I just didn't want to…anymore.", Rina replied with a somehow lonely tone.

"Oh my gosh, you had sex with him? When and where? And so soon?"

"I did bet I would get him in like a week, right? He was easy bait since he's still heartbroken from Chi-chan. He wanted someone to comfort him."

"You're such a bitch, hehehe."

"When did you do it? Was he good-"

"Girls! Come on."

Chiyo quickly interrupted them as she stood up from her seat.

"Ri-chan. You just had a crush on him, right? And you haven't known him for too long! You shouldn't have done that!"

"Oh come on, Chi-chan. I'm not like miss pure here who only needs to look pretty and all the guys come dropping at her."

"That's not it, Ri-chan. I know I might have been too chatty with him, but he was just my brother's friend I joked around with. I never knew he would fall for me! What I'm saying is that you shouldn't just do it with him! There are many other ways you could have done to make him fall for you-"

"Chi-chan, come on. Let's get real here. Whatever I do, he's hung up about you. I don't even know what you did to make him fall for you like that."

"I didn't do anything with him! I just joked around and showed him some magic tricks! You should have just done the same. You could've just be sweet and nice if you wanted him to fall for you!"

"Oh please... This again, Chi-chan? Are you really sure you did nothing? Trying to act like a virgin again? Stop it with that act. You really think you're just the prettiest girl in the world, don't you?"

"I don't! Ri-chan, I'm just worried about you-"

"Men are simple, Chi-chan. Just spread your legs and they'll immediately become your prisoner. Even after we did it, he was still talking about how he wants to like talk to you again."

"Ri-ri-chan..."

"We're you that great in bed, Chi-chan? I bet you're an expert in deepthroating aren't you? He's probably hung up about sticking his dick in your throat-"

"RI-CHAN!"

Chiyo was angry, she was in her wit's end. She didn't expect this sudden burst of words that came out from Rina's mouth.

"Ummm…you two… we're just gonna go, kay? Uhh…w-well, see you girls tomorrow."

"Y-yeah. You should talk with it yourselves, Rina-chan, Chiyo-chan…"

The other girls quickly exited the place as Chiyo and Rina stayed there.

Chiyo was angry at Rina, while Rina was just showing an indifferent look and was staring at the glass wall next to them.

"Ri-chan. You know how much I care about you, right? Weren't we besties? What happened? Why are you acting so aggressive right now?"

"…"

Chiyo's angry expression turned into a worried one as she sat down and stared at Rina.

"Chi-chan. Can you please not talk to any guy I ever like from now on?"

"Ri-chan?"

"Can you please just promise me that?"

"…"

Chiyo seemed hesitant about it.

Sure, she's not really that much of a fan of befriending and getting close with the guy her best friend likes, but…

At the same time, she's worried that the guy she falls with might just turn out to be a bad person.

She wanted to make sure her best friend was safe at all times, and wanted to take care of her and treat her just like her little sister…

But…

"Sure…"

She felt that that might be the only way she and Rina could get back to being close friends again, and decided to just accept her suggestion.

"Don't ever interfere with me or the guy I like ever again, alright?"

"…Ok…"

__________________________________________________

"So to get the angle of this, you need to-"

Chiyo and the others were in class, feeling a bit bored as their teacher wrote on the board.

Suddenly though, as Chiyo was lifting her cheek with her right arm, and was staring at the board with an indifferent expression…

*thup"

A piece of paper was suddenly thrown at her.

Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.

'Hmmm?'

The piece of crumpled paper then fell on the floor.

Seeing this, she decided to pick it up.

She then opened it up.

<"Chi-chan! I've got a boyfriend now! And this time, he's not someone who confessed to you for once!">

She showed a wry smile as she read this.

She then decided to turn her sight to the right.

There, Rina showed a peace sign at her with a bright smile.

'Hehehe…guess she finally found love on her own…'

__________________________________________________

"Just like I told you, he was just so creepy so I just had to reject him."

"Seriously? That disgusting otaku from the 1-C? Can't believe he actually think he ever had a chance, hehehe..."

"C-come on, girls. I don't think you should talk about him so badly like that. He at least got the courage to confess his feelings. Cut him some slack."

"Like seriously, Chiyo? Don't tell me you'd date a freak like that."

"I- I'm not sure, you know. He might actually be a really nice guy."

"Besides, he doesn't even know me or talk to me, and he just like randomly confesses to me like that? What a creep. I bet he just wanted to get laid and thought he'd be lucky with me."

Chiyo and the other girls were on their way out of their school as they chatted.

Rina was at the right side, texting on her phone.

"Ri-chan, are you busy texting your boyfriend again?"

"Hah. Our Rina's finally found love. Took you long enough."

"Come on, Rina. At least leave your lovely dovey moment when you're with him and like, spend more time with us."

Rina doesn't seem to be answering them and just showed a serious expression as she texted on her phone.

'Hmmm?'

Chiyo noticed something on Rina's face though, and decided to walk closer to her.

"Wh-what are you-"

She suddenly decided to put her hands on Rina's cheeks, slightly surprising her.

She then put her thumb near her eye and rubbed it.

"Is that…make-up?"

Chiyo was able to rub a bit of make-up from Rina's eye, and noticed a dark mark.

"Aahh.. th-that…I just messed with my eye shadow too much and decided to cover it-"

"RI-CHAN!"

Chiyo, was again angry, seeing this.

The other girls seem curious as well about what was going on.

"Why do you have a black eye?"

The other girls' eyes slightly widened as they realized as well.

"R-rina…did something happen?"

"Are you okay?"

"I-I'm fine everyone. It's just make-up, okay?"

"DON'T LIE TO ME!"

Chiyo was getting even angrier as Rina kept lying.

"Give me your phone. Ri-chan."

"I-It's okay, Chi-chan. I think you already understand, but I can take care of this on my own…so…"

"GIVE ME THAT!"

Chiyo forcefully took Rina's phone from her hand.

"Wait, Ch-Chi-chan!"

She read the texts as her eyes got angrier and angrier.

"I'm calling your dad, Ri-chan."

"Chi-chan! I told you I can handle it my own, alright? Just-"

"Shut the hell up, Ri-chan.'

Rina showed a sad expression as she held her arm.

The other girls seem worried as well as they realized what was happening.

"Rina, are you okay?"

"Y-you shouldn't stay with him…if he's being like that…you know."

"Rina-"

"Hello, Mr. Maeda? This is Chiyo from the Mayou family…it's about your daughter's boyfriend…"

__________________________________________________

"At least it's been taken care of."

"They broke it off so quick though…"

The girls were all talking with each other in class again.

Except for Rina, almost all of them were there.

"Yeah, she's got it really hard…"

"Chiyo?"

One of the girls suddenly called on Chiyo, who was busy messaging on her phone it seems.

"What's the matter? Why do you look so anxious?"

Chiyo had a bad feeling about what was going on.

Rina did just break-up with her boyfriend, but that was only Chiyo telling him off.

Rina's father didn't really seem to care much about what's going on and only asked Chiyo to take care of it.

A few minutes earlier as well, Rina decided to go to the bathroom.

For some reason though, she was taking her time and wasn't answering any of Chiyo's messages.

"Hey, girls…I'm just gonna go check out Rina, kay?"

"Okay, buy me some juice before you come back!"

"Buy me some cola too!"

"Don't leave me out! Treat me to some juice as well."

"Yeah, yeah. But you're all still paying for it when you come back, alright?"

Chiyo decided to wave at them as she walked out of her class

__________________________________________________

Chiyo was walking around the school, looking for Rina, when she noticed some noise coming from the gym equipment room.

"Stop! I said stop! Get your fucking hands off me!"

"You wanted this, right? Come on. You even had to tattle to your friend. Why don't you just admit you're still drooling for my cock."

"I don't give a shit about your tiny dick. I just came because I wanted to break it off. I never wanted this!"

"You willingly came with me here, isn't that just an invitation?"

"Shut up! I came here because I didn't want Chi-chan to see me with you! Get off of me!"

*BAAAAM*

"GUUAAHH!"

"Can you shut your mouth, bitch? You're just my fuckhole, didn't you forget? Shut the fuck up and let me put my dick in you."

"Y-you…haaah… my stomach…"

"What? Didn't you say you like it rough?"

"I…haaah..can't…breathe…"

"What's the matter? Don't you like me choking you? Come on. Just take off your panties and let me get in there."

"N-no...please…stop…"

"What? What are you going to do? Come on. Scream. I want to see you try-"

"Try what, Mr. Yamada?"

Suddenly though, from outside the shed, came in what seemed to be a bunch of middle aged teachers.

They seemed to be showing a detesting expression at the young man.

They were lying down a gym mat, while he seems to be choking Rina.

The man was slightly handsome, was wearing a silver necklace and had a bad boy look.

Rina was half-naked, with her uniform torn, slight traces of blood from her mouth and tears in her eyes.

"I-…S-sir…I was just…"

Rina stared at the scene feeling slightly relieved as she saw the teachers.

Suddenly though, from behind them, came Chiyo, showing a worried expression.

Rina's eyes widened as she saw this.

__________________________________________________

"Don't ever do that again, alright?"

Rina was wearing what seems to be a towel around her.

She was inside their school's clinic, having just been treated by the doctor.

"I was so worried about you. You need to learn when to say no, Ri-chan."

"What do you know?"

The words that came out of Rina's mouth surprised Chiyo.

The words she was spouting was filled with nothing but love so it surprised her when she heard this.

Her head was laying low so she wasn't able to see her eyes, but her tone sounded grim.

"Ri-chan…I was just worried about you…"

"…Okay…"

Chiyo felt bad about her having need to experience that, but decided to finally just leave her alone as she left the clinic.

__________________________________________________

"Just like I said, a magician can't tell her your tricks, alright?"

Chiyo showed a positive face as she and her friends walk to their school.

"Oh come on. Those tricks might be the reason you like, got that handsome kouhai to confess to you."

"Th-this and that are different…"

As they were walking inside though, they noticed a familiar figure.

"Ri-chan!"

Chiyo came running to her side immediately when she saw her.

She was looking at the ground and seemed to be thinking about stuff as she did so.

Hearing her name being called, she turned to Chiyo.

"Chi-chan…"

She immediately hugged Rina, surprising her a bit.

"I'm glad you're back…"

Rina hugged her back as she did so.

"It's been just a week, Chi-chan."

"And I missed you everyday. If anyone ever tries to hurt you again, they have to go through me first!"

"…yeah…"

__________________________________________________

"A transfer student?"

"Really? Is it a guy?"

"Yeah! And I heard he's really hot as well! There aren't many hot guys in our batch and it really surprised me that he's even in our section!"

"Woah, let me check him out!"

The girls seemed to be busy checking out the new guy that were gonna transfer in their class on one of their phones.

Chiyo just showed a wry smile as they did this.

Rina wasn't there yet, so she wasn't there.

__________________________________________________

Rina was walking with a lonely expression to school.

She was alone that time, as the cherry blossoms fluttered from the trees nearby.

She was stepping slowly as she walk closer and closer to the entrance.

Suddenly though…

"Miss! Hey miss!"

A guy's voice was heard as he hurried closer and closer to Rina.

Noticing this, Rina turned towards the direction the guy was calling her from.

He was a handsome guy who had glasses on.

His dark orange hair was kempt and nice, and he had an attractive appearance.

He seemed more like a gentle guy though more than anything and it felt like the world stopped when he approached her.

"I think you dropped this!"

He showed her a dark violet hankerchief that seemed to belong to Rina.

"Ah…I…Thanks! I didn't notice..."

"It's okay. You just have to be more careful. You did look like a klutz in the first place.

"A-am not! I might have just not seen it. What about you? Why aren't you wearing your tie? Aren't you like the bigger klutz here?"

"My tie? Oh that's because I've just transferred in."

"You're a new student?"

"Yeah. I'm Satou Naoki. I just transferred in. And you are?"

"Ah…umm...I'm Rina, Rina Maeda. Nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you too, Maeda-san."

He took her hand and shook it as he showed her a dazzling smile.

Rina felt captivated as she saw his smile.

It felt like…

It felt like there were sparks in the air all of a sudden.

__________________________________________________

"The transfer student was really hot!"

"I know, right? But he like seems too boring for me. He looks like the kind of guy who would take studying too seriously."

The girls were in a circle talking to each other again while eating their lunch.

"Isn't that better than a guy who has no plans in life? I think it's way better.", said Chiyo.

"Of course, I like bad boys, but I didn't say I liked guys who have no plans for the future. Come on, Chiyo."

"Where's Rina by the way?"

"She said she was going to the library."

Chiyo and the others felt surprised by this.

"Ri-chan? In the library?"

"You must be joking. Like, when did Rina ever go to the library?"

"Since never. What's she up to?"

"Wanna see what's up? Come with me."

One of the girls stood up as she put her chopsticks down.

__________________________________________________

"She's hanging out with the transfer student?"

"Seriously? I thought he wasn't Rina's type."

The girls were eyeing at them from outside the library.

Rina seemed to be writing down on a work sheet with a book beside her as she chatted with the handsome transfer student.

"Maybe she got sick of the bad boy type because of her ex. Like this could be a better breathe of air for her."

Chiyo showed a worried expression from afar.

'Is he really the kind of guy they think he is?'

Chiyo was worried about Rina.

She just got out of an abusive relationship, and she was still having thoughts about it.

Chiyo wanted to make sure she was making the right choice this time…but..

["Don't ever interfere with me or the guy I like ever again, alright?"]

She interrupted Rina once but that was because she was in danger.

This time though, she felt extremely worried.

'What if it turns out he's a bad person? What if he tries to hurt Rina? What if he's not as nice as she thinks he is…'

Lots of thoughts came into Chiyo's mind as she did so.

__________________________________________________

"See you tomorrow!"

Rina showed him a loving smile as he showed him a gentle one.

"Yeah, I'll see you too."

She was waving the transfer student goodbye as they both walk to opposite directions.

Rina's house was in the other way so they had to separate.

The guy kept walking in between houses.

Rina was already far off, so she wasn't seen.

In an alley though, on a corner, suddenly walked Chiyo, seemingly having waited for the transfer student.

"Satou Naoki, am I right?"

"Ah…hello? Do I know you?"

"You don't know me, but I need to know you."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"Come with me."

"Where?"

"Just come with me?"

"Why-"

"I'll smack you if you don't come!"

Chiyo showed a strict expression as he kept urging the guy to go with her.

"O-okay…."

The guy seemed a bit terrified of Chiyo but decided to go with her anyways.

__________________________________________________

"Haha! I win again!"

"Oh come on!"

The guy seemed a bit sad as Chiyo won against her in a game.

They seemed to be inside an arcade, playing some games.

"Hehe, I told you you're no match for me."

"You're too strong, Mayou-san. Please try to hold back for me…"

"Hehe. I could if you pay me 1000 yen."

"That's too much! Come on!"

"Hehehe. I didn't know you were this fun to be with, still I'm not sure if you're cut out enough to be called 'boyfriend-kun'."

The guy raised his eyebrow as he heard that.

"What do you…mean?"

"It's nothing, don't worry about it."

She showed him an amused smile as she said so.

His eyes widened as he saw her smile.

It felt as if he started feeling something deep inside.

"I…"

__________________________________________________

"Where's Rina?"

"Isn't she with the transfer student again?"

"No, I heard she like went to the bathroom, probably to fix her make-up and whatevs."

"Chiyo, are you ok? Why do you seem happier than usual?"

Chiyo was showing an amused smile as she thought about stuff.

"Nothing. I'm just really happy that it seems like Rina found the right guy this time. I bet if she keeps it up, they might even marry each other one day."

"Well, at least our hopeless romantic finally found love."

The girls were chatting in the cafeteria.

Unlike their usual hanging spot, the classrooms, they were there.

Suddenly though, as they were chatting.

"Hey."

A hand suddenly tapped on Chiyo's shoulder.

"Kyaah!"

Feeling surprised by the sudden touch, Chiyo reflexively scrunched up.

The other girls giggled as she did this.

"S-sorry. I just wanted to tell you something…important."

It was the transfer student who tapped her.

Realizing this, Chiyo's eyes widened.

"Why are you here? Weren't you with Ri-chan?"

"You mean Rina? Well, she said she had some place to go, so I left her for a while. Anyways...can I speak to you for a bit?"

"What for?"

The other girls were showing grim expressions as if they knew something bad was about to happen.

"Chiyo…you…"

"What's the matter?"

"J-just please, come with me…there's no one in the classroom now, so…just go there with me."

"…Al…right…"

Chiyo felt confused but decided to follow after him still.

__________________________________________________

Rina was washing her hands as she came back from the bathroom.

Unlike her face the past week, that started getting more and more happy, she had a different expression.

She seemed to be a bit irritated about something.

She walked towards the class halls, and kept her mind on her thoughts.

Suddenly though, as soon as she reached their classroom.

A voice she knew was suddenly heard from the inside.

"What do you mean? What important thing? Is there something you wanted to say to me that you didn't want anyone hearing about?"

Chiyo showed a worried expression as this happened.

She wasn't dense, she had the first idea of what happens when someone usually asks her to come with them.

This time she was afraid though.

Afraid of what the guy would say.

She wished that he wouldn't say it. The words she heard from a lot of other guys who did the same.

Because if he did…

"The truth is… I called you here because…

…Mayou-san…I wanted to ask you..."

Rina's eyes slowly widened as she listened to this.

Then her best friend, the girl she always cared about, the girl she treated as her sister...

"I know we haven't known each other for too long but…"

Her heart will…

"Will you please…"

Her heart will…

"Go out with me?"

...break all over again.

Chiyo's eyes widened with fear and shock.

Suddenly..

*BAAAM*

A loud noise was heard as someone ran and stomped loudly.

The girl who was there though, quickly ran away before her face could be seen.

The tips of her hair was seen by Chiyo though as she left.

'Ri-chan!'

"Ri-chan! Wait!"

Chiyo quickly rushed to the entrance, trying to speak with Chiyo.

"Mayou-san, I-"

"SHUT THE HELL UP! Go find someone else to mess with!"

"But-"

Chiyo quickly tried to run after her.

She kept running and running, trying to see where she left.

She looked through the entrance, the exit, classrooms and stuff like that, but she wasn't there.

'Ri-chan…'

She felt extremely guilty.

As if she did something wrong.

…but Rina wasn't there for her to apologize to…

When she came back to class, she wasn't there.

It seems like Rina took an early leave because apparently 'she wasn't feeling well'.

__________________________________________________

"Haaaah.…haaah..haah…"

Chiyo ran through the hallway trying to reach her classroom as fast as possible.

'Rina…please…please be there…'

Noticing that the classroom was close by, she started slowing down and entered.

She just went in and felt guilty, wishing to speak with Rina.

All of the students though, were showing eyes of disgust and taint at her.

'What is…what's going on…?'

They all seemed to be glaring or ignoring her.

"Have you heard? Apparently, she had sex with the transfer student just because she heard her best friend likes him."

"Apparently, she was seen going out of a motel with a middle-aged man."

"There was also news that she had a foursome with some the higher year male senpais."

"They said her clothes were all gifts from the men who screwed her."

"Hah, seriously? She's that fucked up? She did it with him just because she was jealous of her bestfriend?"

It felt as if rumors were suddenly spread in their class that night.

Chiyo felt really lonely about this and turned towards the sobbing Rina.

Rina was sat there, around her other 'friends'. Apparently crying.

"Rina…about yesterday...I-"

"She doesn't want to talk to you, Chiyo."

"Just leave her alone. Don't ever approach us again."

"Wait…you guys don't understand…I-"

"I…*sniff* hate you so much *sniff…Mayou."

Chiyo showed a surprised expression as she hard this.

"I saw you *sniff* in the class *sniff* with Naoki.*sniff* You two *sniff* were doing something perverted *sniff*!"

Hearing this, Chiyo showed a slightly irritated expression.

"What? What are you talking about we didn't-"

Chiyo turned to look at the transfer student from his chair, but he didn't seem to have gone to school.

'I forgot…I did reject him…harshly…'

She was focused more on Rina there than him, so she hasn't thought much about him.

"I hate you…*sniff*…I hate you so much…Mayou."

Chiyo showed a grim expression.

It felt like she was about to cry.

The best friend she had.

The girl who she treated as her sister.

She…lied about Chiyo.

She kept making false accusations and spread it.

Due to this...

"Fucking whore…"

"Bet she's got at least one STD."

"Hard being a slut who can't keep her legs shut."

It felt as if the entire world became dark.

The friends she used to have immediately sided with Rina.

Her other classmates seemed to have believed the rumors too.

It was just a day, but it spread to all of them.

Those lies that Rina made…

Quickly spread to all of them.

Chiyo sat down on the chair as she looked down on her desk.

A bunch of words has been written on it.

Skank

Whore

Go kill yourself

Die in a fire>

There were also a bunch of random numbers written there, seemingly wanting to message her or call her, for 'certain' reasons.

'Ri-chan…'

She turned her eyes towards Rina with a bit of hope, wishing she would at least feel a bit of remorse.

…but what she saw was…

An evil grin.

Rina was grinning at her defeat, as if she was happy seeing Chiyo was suffering…

'…I….'

She could only sit there and wish the time could pass by…

__________________________________________________

*Thup*

"Ugh!"

A crumpled ball of paper was suddenly thrown at Chiyo.

It was in the middle of the class when they were writing down notes when it happened.

*thup*

Another ball of paper was thrown.

Chiyo tried opening the first the ball of paper, but was immediately halted when another was thrown at her.

"Hey!"

*THUP*

Suddenly, what seems to be scissors was thrown.

She was able to avoid it as it landed on the ground.

"Who was that?"

Hearing the noise of the scissors fall down, the teacher turned to ask who was making noise.

"It was Mayou-san, sir."

"What? I didn't."

"It was her, sir. She was trying to put the blame on others."

"I-"

"Mayou-san! To the principal's office!"

Mayou showed a worried expression as she turned to her classmate, but it doesn't seem like they'd care.

__________________________________________________

"Dammit…"

It was already lunch when she came back.

She decided to go fetch something from her bag as she did.

Rina and the others weren't there though, so she thought they might be in the cafeteria.

As she walked to her seat though, she noticed something.

"What just…!?"

Her briefcase was wet.

It seemed as if someone opened it and poured water inside.

Her notes, her pen, everything was ruined…

She felt like…

She felt like she was about to cry.

__________________________________________________

The whole day was a wreck to her.

There was gum on her chair, death threats in her locker, and the whole time, people kept talking behind her back.

It felt like, the whole world turned it's back at her.

She walked home alone, with a lonely, sad expression.

__________________________________________________

Chiyo, just like yesterday, went inside their classroom.

There was still a hostile aura in the air as everyone either glared at her, whispered about her or ignored her.

She sat on her chair, and saw that her desk was scratched and seemed to be tampered with.

'They just won't stop, huh…'

She decided to just ignore all their doings as she sat there and waited for the teacher.

"Class rep, you're back!"

A female student said with glee as someone came in.

It was a light green haired short girl with a petite figure and cute young looking face.

"My cold seems to have gotten the better of me, but I'm okay now! So don't worry, okay?"

"You really need to take care of yourself, class rep. I know you love flowers, but you don't have to be too into it."

"Hehe. I love them so much. I won't let this cold defeat me."

She then decided to walk to her chair.

She was sat on the front due to her height, but because she went from the back, she had to pass by Chiyo's chair.

"Hmmm?"

Chiyo was feeling down as she layes her head low.

The girl though, noticed her eraser on the ground.

She decided to pick it up.

"Mayou-san!"

As Chiyo kept her head low, the girl suddenly called onto her.

Hearing this, Chiyo felt slightly taken aback.

"Ahh…what is it?"

"Ahh... Seems like you're looking a little down. You shouldn't be like that you know! If you frown, it would ruin your beauty!"

The girl then grabbed a hold of Chiyo's cheeks.

She was short so she had to tiptoe, but still, she reached it.

She then squished it and forced her face to do a smile.

"That hurts…"

"Come on, turn that frown upside-down, okay? Here's your eraser by the way, you need to be a little more careful for your things!"

She seemed like a mother telling her daughter off as she gave Chiyo her eraser and put her arms on her hips.

The other students seemed to be showing an awkward expression at this situation.

"Uhh.…class rep…", a male student sat close to Chiyo said.

"Hmmm? What is it, Kouichi-kun?"

"I think you shouldn't talk to her.", a female student said.

"Why is me talking to her a problem?"

"There were some news about her you know…she did some bad things."

"You mean rumors, right? Hmmm…do you have proof of those bad things she did?"

"Uhhh…well.."

"We...uh…"

The students hearing this, felt a bit unsure and guilty as they were trying to think of what they could say.

"I've seen Mayou-san do things just to make her friends happy and I believe she didn't do whatever the rumors said about her, right Mayou-san?"

The girl turned to Chiyo while tilting her head slightly.

"Yeah…"

"Then that's that."

The girl then started walking to the front as she did so.

Chiyo eyes were focused on her as she walked to the front.

The students seem to be scratching their heads in guilt.

"Ummm, we're sorry, Mayou-san."

"Yeah, I shouldn't have immediately believed those rumors."

"Tulip-chan really told us off."

A group of students started apologizing as Tulip walked away.

"Th-that's…alright."

"Come to think of it, there really wasn't any proof about it, right?"

"Are you sure they weren't true though?"

"If Tulip-chan said so, I'd believe her."

The class started getting chatty with each other as they start getting suspicions about what happened.

After just one day of the rumor, the class rep just spoke about it and it completely changed everything.

"Rina, are you really sure they did it?"

Suddenly, even one of the girls started questioning Rina.

Rina was showing an irritated expression as they saw them starting to think about what happened.

"Like, we know Chiyo has always been the kind of girl who'd blush whenever she hears the word like 'dick'. I think you might have just misunderstood what you saw or something."

"Yeah, Chiyo's always like, strict when it comes to those things. The reason why those guys fell for her is not surprising as well, she's got a face and figure to back it up "

"Are you sure that-"

"I AM SURE!"

Suddenly though, as the girls questioned her, Rina got really defensive and accidentally screamed out what she said.

"Ri-rina…"

"You hate her too, right? You hate how she's always talking about stuff like giving her purity to the right guy, how she wants us to follow her standards, how she always always gets all the guys to fall for her, how she always acts like she's better! She's a bitch! She's nothing but a stupid bitch!"

"Ri-chan."

Rina's eyes widened as she saw Chiyo suddenly stood beside her.

"What are you-"

*SLAP!*

A loud sound was heard as Chiyo slapped Rina's face.

"I hate you as well."

Rina's and everyone's eyes widened as she heard this.

The always happy Chiyo, decided to suddenly slap her in the middle of class.

"You…"

She then walked back to her seat with a serious expression.

The teacher finally walked in after all these drama finished as well.

__________________________________________________

"H-hey…"

Lunchtime just came when Chiyo decided to call out to Tulip.

"Oh hello, Mayou-san. Do you need something?"

"Umm… Do you want to eat lunch together?"

Tulip showed a gentle smile as she heard this.

"I'll be glad too, but I'm gonna be eating near the garden."

"That's alright. I want to see how pretty the flowers are anyways."

The two started chatting as they left the classroom.

Rina though, wasn't happy about this.

She glared at this scene wholeheartedly.

__________________________________________________

"Oh, Satou-san's back!"

It's been a week after the rumors about Chiyo started getting resolved when the transfer student suddenly came back to class.

"Hey!"

A lot of students seem a bit worried and curious as they approached him.

Rina showed a somehow unsure glare as she saw him come in.

"Good morning. Sorry if I made some of you worry."

"That's fine. Anyways, dude a lot of stuff happened when you were gone."

"Is it true that you and Mayou-san did some 'stuff' int the classroom?"

A couple of guys were curious as to what happened.

"What do you-"

One of them whispered to his ear.

"W-what? No! We didn't. That wasn't what happened."

Rina's head turned low as she tried to avoid everyone's eyes.

Her eyes widened though as if she realized something.

Chiyo showed a curious expression, and then did a sigh of relief.

__________________________________________________

"Tulip-chan, good morning!"

"Chi-chan, good morning to you too!"

Tulip was wearing a white one piece with a sun hat while Chiyo was wearing a dark brown A-shirt and jeans.

Usually, she would wear something sexy, but due to the place she was going she decided not to.

"Good morning, granny!"

"Oh, good morning to you too, Chiyo-chan. Are you here to play with Tulip-chan again?"

They were inside a flower shop with an old grandma in the counter wearing a simple duster.

"Grandma! I'm not a kid anymore! We're going to hang out!"

"Is that what kids call it these days?"

"Well, Tulip-chan does look like a kid."

"Chi-chan! Muuuu!"

The two then left with each other.

"Take care!"

__________________________________________________

They went to eat in the sweets store, bought clothes together, and even though Tulip was bad at it, they even played in the arcade.

It was night time when they finally came back to the flower shop.

"Where's granny?"

"She's probably in the back getting something, I'll look for her!"

"Can I come with you?"

Chiyo was a bit curious as to what the inside of Tulip's house is.

She hasn't been friends with Tulip for so long, but she know how much of a good person she is.

She wants to be able to hang out in her house too.

"Okay! I'm sure granny would be happily serve you some of her great tea!"

They then entered the house.

It was a Japanese styled house that seems old with cracks here and there.

The floor creaked as well as they did so.

They kept walking but for some reason, noticed something unusual.

"That's weird. Why are all the lights turned off? I know granny wants to conserve energy, but this-"

Suddenly, before they could approach a doorway, Chiyo's eyes widened.

"I-"

Chiyo suddenly grabbed Tulip and covered her mouth.

"Hmm-"

"Are you sure they're even gonna come?"

From inside the room where the doorway is, a man's voice was heard.

"Some of the other guys apparently saw them going away earlier. You know the little girl, right? From the sources, they said her grandma's a worrywart. She'll probably come back here early."

"Still, seriously? I know that brat's hella rich, but I've never seen someone so spoiled and bitchy as to get her own classmate be abducted."

Chiyo's eyes widened as she heard this.

Tulip started feeling scared as well.

"Come on, pay's good, right? And she did say we could do anything with the girls. Imagine that, it's all you fuck."

"That's why I told you to wear your ski mask after entering."

"I might get caught, you fucker. I don't want anyone seeing my face."

"If they saw you enter with a ski mask on, it'll look more suspicious."

"Ch-chi-chan…"

"Shhh…"

Chiyo felt a bit scared as well, just kept her guard for Tulip.

"We need to get out of here…"

They were whispering so the men won't hear them, but they really wanted to rush out.

"W-what about granny?"

"We need to call the police. If we just barge in there, we'd just be in the same situation."

They both quietly stepped towards the entrance.

The door was still open outside, so they planned to just walk out.

Suddenly though, as they continued doing so.

Another large bodied man seemed to walk from the side to the entrance.

His eyes immediately went scowling when he saw them.

"YOU TWO!"

Chiyo, hearing this, quickly decided to pull Tulip with her upstairs.

They both ran from them and walked up.

"They're upstairs! Get them!"

The man told the other guys off.

Quickly, Chiyo and Tulip looked for a place to hide.

"Chi-chi-chan…what are we gonna do..!?"

Tulip seemed really scared and teary-eyed as this happened.

"Tulip…"

She suddenly saw a closet on the corner of the room.

"Here!"

__________________________________________________

The men quickly looked through the place.

They searched through the rooms and kept looking for them.

In a certain room, a couple of them were searching away too.

"Ch-chi-chan…I'm scared..."

Tulip and Chiyo were hugging inside the closet, while hiding behind the clothes.

"D-don't worry about it. Okay? Just stay calm…"

Chiyo was getting even more scared as well. There was no way they could go out of this situation now.

If they check the closet, they'll definitely be caught.

Right now, all they could do…was hope.

'Damn it!'

Chiyo had slight tears in her eyes as well as she hugged Tulip tighter.

'I'm a magician, right? Is there anything I could do? To trick them? To get out of this situation? I… I hate it… Why am I so powerless?'

Chiyo was feeling really scared but kept a hopeful heart.

"Have you checked in that closet over there?"

'I hate it… I hate it so much… Please... I wish I could just do magic... I wish I could just save both of us from this situation…If only…I wish I could just make this all…an illusion…'

Suddenly…

"Huh? There they are!"

"Get them!"

Sounds of footsteps were heard as the guys from the room suddenly ran out somewhere.

Hearing this, Chiyo and Tulip showed a surprised expression.

'What just…?'

Feeling curious… Chiyo slowly opened the closet.

"They're gone!"

Chiyo and Tulip then stood up and looked at the doorway to see if there's anyone else there.

"What just…happened?"

"Tulip-chan…"

__________________________________________________

It was the next day when Chiyo went to class.

Tulip seemed to have not come to class for some reason though.

Both Rina and the transfer student seemed to not have went to the class as well.

"Have you heard the news? Apparently, a bunch of shady men were seen wandering around class rep's house. One of the men sold his comrades out and told the police about what they were planning. It was said that they wanted to abduct class rep and the girl with her…."

A student told another student.

Chiyo was curious about this, but only eavesdropped from her seat.

"What's more is that it was said that…

…Maeda-san was the head of the operation."

Chiyo's eyes widened as she heard this.

'Rina…'

"She was arrested yesterday and was brought to the police. The article said she'll be in a juvenile correction center for a few years."

"I also heard that the whistleblower was one of our classmates. The story was that, the classmate was persuaded by Maeda-san to join them, but he felt guilty and decided to turn himself in in he end."

"That's really a shock. Class rep's probably traumatized by this whole situation. That's why she didn't go to class."

Chiyo knew though, that that was not the reason…

__________________________________________________

It was a rainy day, when Tulip and a few of her relatives stood there, crying at the scene.

Chiyo just looked at it with a serious expression.

They were all wearing black in a field with lots of tombs in it.

There, a casket was being lowered as Tulip and her family cried.

"Granny!"

During their encounter with the men, an old woman died due to a heart attack.

Apparently, the men tied her up and decided to bound her to make sure she couldn't say anything.

The fear that was brought to her though, caused her entire world to shatter, as her heart failed.

'…Why…?'

Chiyo was pissed by this.

'Why do the good people have to suffer?'

She was angry about what happened and hated it with her whole heart.

'I gave my all into taking care of Rina… I acted like her sister…'

She clenched her fist as she cried.

'If only…if only…I could be…a hero… If only I saved her…If only if I had the power to…'

Chiyo's anger was swept away by her tears.

From a far though, stood a beautiful woman, holding an umbrella, watching the scene from a distance.

__________________________________________________

"Mayou Chiyo from class 1-B, please report to the principal's office immediately. I repeat Mayou Chiyo from-"

Suddenly, as class was still going by, the announcer at the radio called for Chiyo.

"Oh. Mayou-san please head to the principal's office now."

"On it, sir."

She felt confused as to why she would be suddenly called, but followed suit.

__________________________________________________

"A school recommendation?"

"Yes, you heard it right. Even with your below average grades, a school decided to ask for your presence."

"…umm..but why, sir? I'm not really an athlete or anything-"

"I could answer that."

Suddenly, the door opened to show the beautiful woman who watched her from before.

"You? Ma'am? Who are you?"

"I'm Kana Asami, the principal of Savior University."

"Savior University?"

"Mayou Chiyo...do you want to be a hero?"

Chiyo's eyes widened as she heard her words.

"I do."

__________________________________________________

Akira slowly opened his eyes to see himself back in his bedroom.

'Huh? What time is it? Where am I…?'

For some reason, his memory felt fuzzy, as if a lot of stuff that happened from before was not in his mind anymore.

'I remember I was with illusion girl, right? What happened back then?'

He slowly pulled his torso up as he scratched his head.

'What just…?'

["Akira…", the lips of a middle aged man was seen as those words was said.]

["He's your son, Arata!", the lips of a middle aged woman was seen as those words was said…]

For some reason, Akira felt as if a few memories from his past suddenly flashed in his mind.

'What the hell is…?'

Feeling a little bit woozy, he turned the door knob in his room.

"Did something happen to him?"

"They said he didn't have a cold or anything. It was nothing serious, still for him to oversleep there might be some reason why…"

"A-akira-sama isn't the type to skip class! He probably just didn't f-feel well today."

Akira started hearing some voices from downstairs in their living room.

Since he was half-asleep though, he didn't seem to notice 'something'.

'Is that love girl? What are they doing here…?'

Akira decided to greet them so he immediately went for.the living room as soon as he got downstairs.

"Hey you guys, what are you all-'"

"A-A-AKIRA-SAMA?"

"Oh my…"

"I didn't take you for an exhibitionist, Akira."

"Wh-what are you doing going here wearing something like that?"

"I-ishikawa, I think you need to wake up completely first before greeting your guests."

"What are you guys-"

Suddenly, Akira noticed it.

He looked at the clothes he was wearing and saw…

…that he was wearing nothing but boxers.

"GAAAH!"

His face went fully red as he quickly ran upstairs to wear something.

__________________________________________________

"Hahaha. I knew you had it in you to do something really stupid in your own home."

"Shut the fuck up, Kami."

Akira was sat next to Kami in the living room table, eating chips and drinking cola.

He was now wearing a black t-shirt and some basketball shorts unlike his boxer-only attire earlier.

"You're really something, aren't you, Ishikawa-san. You've really surprised us twice in just one day.", the dark blue haired senpai from the newspaper club said with an amused smile.

"Yeah. Quit it with the- wait…what do you mean twice?"

"I didn't know the tough guy you is actually an obsessed otaku."

"…"

Akira started sweating buckets as he heard that.

"Wh-wh-wh-what do you mean? Otaku, I'm not-"

"I let them in your room, bro."

Akio came in with a bunch of juice in a tray.

"…

..what."

"Hehehe. Never knew one of the finalists of the tournament right here actually calls himself Darkness Bladix Panther."

"It was even more amazing how littered with manga and light novels his room was."

"I-I thought the sword was cool, A-akira-sama."

"It was a grand sight."

Akira's face fell on the table as if his sould just left him.

'Fuuuuuuucccccckkkk…'

All this time, he was wishing nobody would figure out about him being an otaku, for that to just happen so suddenly, without him being able to do anything about it, made him feel really frustrated.

'Now they've got more things they could tease me about.'

Ken's, Kami's and Eiji's eyes were shining red as they looked at Akira with a deviant smile.

'I'm gonna be so fucked at school.'

"Why didn't you go to school by the way, Akira? Your mom said you were just tired, is that just it?", Kami asked.

"Mom?"

'So she was here earlier. Guess she's not busy now.'

"She even watched Akio's semi-final match earlier. You missed it. It was a whole lot of fun to see!"

"Yeah. I think I just overslept or something, I don't really remember why I stayed home as well."

"You need to fix your time management skills, Akira.", Ken said.

"Yeah, yeah. I'll work on it."

"Ishikawa-kun."

Suddenly as they were chatting together, the dark blond haired female senpai from the Journalism club and the blond haired male senpai walked next to him.

"Can we talk to you about something?"

Akira felt curious, but at the same time, hungry, so he decided to eat some chips while he spoke with them.

"Sure. What's up?"

"It's about…ummm…Mayou-san."

"You mean Illusion girl? What about her?"

"…"

The female senpai showed a concerned expression as she looked at the blond haired senpai, he showed her a difficult expression as well.

"Do you ummm…like her?"

Hearing this, the others seem to have felt curious and listened intently at what she was saying.

"As a friend? Yeah. But if you're talking about anything else, don't expect an answer from me."

*crunch*

Akira kept eating chips as they continued questioning him.

"So she isn't your…girlfriend or anything...right?"

"Well of course she isn't, she wouldn't go for someone like me."

*creak*

Suddenly, from afar, Akira heard a door open.

'Is that the neighbors? Well, whatever.'

"So you're not trying to make her your girlfriend or something, right?"

"What's with those questions? Can you get to the point already? Why do you want to know so bad?"

Akira really hated answering questions from the Journalism club, especially because for some reason, he felt like he's more open to his desires today.

"Truth is…there were a few rumors about Mayou-san going around…"

Hearing this, Akira stopped his hand before he could crunch the chip between it. He let it stay there for a while before finally crunching on it again.

"Rumors? What's it about?"

The two showed a somehow guilty expression as if they didn't want to say what they were gonna say but still chose to do so.

"Apparently, a lot of people have seen her walking around with an older handsome guy."

Akira's mind suddenly remembered someone he saw just yesterday.

[It surprised Akira to see an unknown man before him.

He had pale skin, fixed brown hair, violet eyes, and was wearing a what seems to be his work outfit, a tuxedo.

Although he looks older, he looked so handsome, he looked like a model that normally shows up in magazines.]

"They said they saw her hanging around with him a lot. They seem very close."

"…"

Akira just kept an indifferent expression as he continued crunching on some chips.

"There was also a rumor about a fourth year senpai involving her...

Apparently…

Mayou-san 'showed him a good time behind the school' when he confessed to her."

The others hearing this started to realize what they were saying. Koka seemed to start to be irritated, while the others seem worried and concerned.

The brown haired senpai just kept a smile as she stared at Akira.

Even Kami wanted to say something as to defend Chiyo, but it seems like he doesn't know what to say.

From the wall before the entrance of the living room, stood a familiar figure.

She had long black hair with brown at the tips.

Her eyes were slightly sad as she heard their words.

In Akira's mind a certain scene suddenly flashed.

[He saw her standing in front of a tree with what seems to be a random handsome guy pinning her on the wall.

The handsome guy had a black earing, had his blue hair brushed up as he showed her a smile.

He wasn't doing anything too creepy, but he did had one of his hands on the wall, pinning Chiyo to it.

"So…what do you think?"

He seemed to be really confident as he said so.

Chiyo showed the guy a smile as if she was planning to tell him something.

It happened behind the school building, so Akira was stood near the corner listening in.]

"What's more…is that...

…a few other students saw her going out of a motel with a middle aged man."

Ken seemed to be irritated as well, as he clenched his fist.

"Just by the way she dresses, acts and all that I really don't think you should ever consider starting a relationship with her, if you could, Ishikawa."

Akira just continued crunching on his chips not minding what she was saying.

"Because according to the rumors alone…ummm..isn't she what you would call….ummm…"

"Isn't she basically just a slut?"

"Hey, Yo-kun!"

"What's wrong?"

"You weren't supposed to say that!"

"But that's what you wanted to tell him, right why don't you just be more direct?"

"Still can't you at least be a little bit more tactful-"

"She's not."

Suddenly as the two were bickering, Akira suddenly said something that surprised them.

Kami, Ken, Megumi, Eiko, and even the girl beside the doorway were shocked as they heard these words come out of his mouth.

Akira continued to crunch on the chips, acting indifferent although everyone's attention were turned towards him.

"What do you mean…? Didn't we tell you-"

"Just listening to rumors without basis wouldn't be good for your journalistic career if you plan to seriously follow it. Maybe you should try looking if your accusations were any significant first."

"What are you saying? Didn't you hear-"

"First of all, we don't really have a right to judge her. It's her own body, if she wants to take care of her lust then it's fine, but let me just set you straight here.

The older guy she was with, isn't he just her brother?"

The members of the newspaper club's eyes widened their eyes.

"That…well…"

"They even have the same colored eyes and their appearance is the same. Wouldn't him being her brother rather than her lover be your best bet? Besides what's wrong with her hanging out with an older guy? Is it wrong for a girl to have older friends?"

"W-well…."

In Akira's mind, two faces flashed.

He remembered Chiyo's smile and the smile of the man who stood before his house back then.

'Their smiles are even similar…'

"Then what about the senpai-"

"I was there during that time. I saw what happened in that confession and I know none of what he said was true."

"What? Then what-"

"What happened was this:

[*Slap!*

Chiyo slapped the senpai who was pinning her on the wall surprising him.

"I'm not that easy of a girl, thank you. If you want to just go screw someone, maybe you should find someone else who'd have standards low enough to accommodate you."

Chiyo showed a mocking smile as the senpai sat there in shock.

"Tch- I should've known you were a bitch!"

He put his hands in his pockets as he walked away.

Due to him being to pissed at Chiyo, he wasn't able to notice Akira standing on the corner.]

Now, I don't know if they still met after that, but I don't think Chiyo would be associating with a guy after that harsh rejection she just gave him."

"Then…why…"

"He probably lied about doing something with her to save face. He was confident he would get her to accept his confession, he probably wanted to tell them a story that was way different than that."

"Then what about the motel-"

"That was probably his dad."

"His dad!?"

"His mom and dad are still very intimate up until now. She probably left with her dad, while her mom still waited to get ready. She does look like the type of girl who doesn't like going out without fixing herself."

"…but…"

"The way she dresses is just because she idolizes her mom. Showing off her chest, her legs. Her mom used to be a famous models who showed allure with her sexy dresses. She wanted to be just like her and keeps trying to show off her sex appeal just like her mom. In reality we shouldn't even judge a person by how they dress."

"..."

Everyone's eyes were glued to Akira as they heard his words that didn't hesitate.

"To me…she's just a regular old cute girl.", Akira said as he took a sip of the coke.

'I knew this even way back then…

[Akira suddenly tripped and fell on top of Chiyo who was slightly blushing due to her being pushed down.

"Where'd you hide the hamster, give it to us now!"

Akira grabbed Chiyo by her collar.

"I-I don't have it, I was just pranking you guys."

"Ishikawa-kun."

"Akira."

"..."

Suddenly, Maiki, Megumi and Koka caught Akira mounting on top of Chiyo.

Finally, Akira figured out the situation he was in and gulped.

'Shit, I was too focused on looking for the hamster that I didn't even notice I mounted on top of her.'

Chiyo was blushing and was trying not to look Akira's eyes.

Megumi had a smile on her face but had an intimidating aura.

Maiki looked enraged.

While Koka looked at him with distaste.

"W-w-wait, this is a misunderstanding... I-"

*BAM BAM BAM BAM*

Before Akira could explain himself the two girls used their abilities on him and knocked him out.

Koka just stood there.

"Haaaah, you okay, Chiyo?", asked Megumi.

"Uh..yeah... I'm fine."

"I've never seen you so flustered before, you looked really cute, hehehe.", teased Megumi

"Shut up...", replied Chiyo still a little bit shaken.]

Hearing this, the others' expressions suddenly turned more lively.

Megumi showed a smile as she stared at Akira.

Kami nodded his head and smiled as he heard Akira's words.

It felt like the dark atmosphere from earlier suddenly turned bright.

From beside the doorway, stood Chiyo who's face…

…was completely, and fully red.

She was showing an embarassed face as she heard something beating...faster and faster.…inside her chest.

"Ow!"

"Hahaha! I knew our Akira would find the right words to say! If Mayou-san was here, she'd probably fall for you immediately!" Kami said as he suddenly hit his fist on Akira's arm with an amused smile.

"Sh-shut up. I just say what I want."

"Yeah, yeah. That's our Akira alright."

"Ow ow ow ow ow! Get the fuck off!"

Ken suddenly put his arm around Akira's shoulder as he noogied Akira's head.

"A-akira-sama! Why do you know so much about Chi-chiyo-chan!"

"Yeah! How'd you know all that?"

Bother Koka and Ai seemed bothered by what Akira said.

"Ah, that's because I had a date with- I mean nothing."

"I heard that Akirachi. Our little boy is growing up now, isn't he?"

"Shut the fuck up, Eiji!"

Everyone started getting chatty as they kept teasing or urging Akira.

*step step step step*

They were suddenly surprised though as the sound of quick footsteps were heard near the doorway.

"Huh? Who's that?"

Akira was confused as well as to who was there…

But suddenly he noticed…

The brown tips of her hair swayed through the air before she could leave.

'Sh-shit!'

Suddenly, Akira felt himself scrunch up.

He normally could say compliments to people, but what he said to Chiyo, to him, was just creepy.

Him knowing so much about her although they've only spent a small time together made Akira think that if Chiyo heard what he said, she'd probably think he was creepy.

Due to this, again Akira was in a mental dilemma as his face fell on the table again.

'Shiiiiit….'

__________________________________________________

Through the fields near Akira's house, ran Chiyo, who's face was flushed red.

'What…is this feeling?'

__________________________________________________

"Mom!"

Chiyo suddenly glomped her mom and rubbed her head on her shoulder.

"I missed you so much!"

"Well, it looks like you're done with the tsundere act."

Chiyo just escorted Akira and came back home when she suddenly hugged her mom.

She was reading a magazine on her hands while sat in the living room's couch.

She didn't seem surprised at all at the sudden change of attitude from Chiyo.

"I-I don't want others to know I'm a mommy's girl. Especially that Ishikawa. He'll probably just tease me about it."

"He did look like quite the troublemaker."

"Y-yeah…"

Chiyo showed a hopeful look as she stared at her mom.

"What is it, Chi-chan? Is there something you want?

"Mom, can we sleep together again?"

"Did something happen?"

Chiyo's mom showed a worried look at Chiyo as she asked this.

"N-no. It's nothing, mom."

"Really? You seemed really unnerved since earlier, as if you're concerned about someone."

"That's…you don't have to worry about it, mom."

"It's about Akira-kun, isn't it?"

Chiyo showed a pout as she heard this.

"You don't have to call him by his first name, mom."

"Oh come on, can't I call my future son-in-law something a bit more intimate than just boyfriend-kun?"

"Mom, I told you he's not my-"

"I know, Chi-chan. He's not your boyfriend. He's just a classmate, right?"

Chiyo raised her eyebrow as she heard this.

"Y-yeah. If you knew from the start, then you didn't have to tease me about it!"

"Why? Don't you like me calling him your boyfriend?"

Chiyo's mom showed a deviant look as she asked that.

"Th-that's…o-of course I don't! Wh-why are you asking me stuff like that, mom?"

"I know you, Chi-chan. In the past, there were lots of guys who liked you since you were kids. Whenever I come and get you home from school, I would always tease you about how every boy you befriended was your boyfriend...but this time, it's different."

"Wh-what do you mean?"

"Whenever I teased you back then, you would just smile and tell me something like 'Yes, he's my boyfriend alright! I'm gonna marry him for money and then divorce him and take half of his assets, mwahaha!' something like that.

"Th-that was just my bad jokes back then."

"…but why is it…that whenever I tease you about Akira-kun, you get all embarrassed, hmmm?"

"Th-th-that's nothing! I-I'm just not having my best day today!"

"Really? You seemed quite happy when he was here earlier."

"N-no, I'm not! H-he's just another perverted idiot who l-leered at you mom! Th-there's no way I'd like that idiot!"

"I never said anything about liking him though."

"Sh-shut up! Th-that's just…"

Chiyo's mom seemed amused by her behavior and was showing a gentle smile.

"Still though, if he becomes your boyfriend, I'll welcome him with open arms."

"I-I told you, mom-"

"Chi-chan, did you notice how he acted earlier?"

Chiyo raised an eyebrow at this as she noticed her mom's serious tone.

"What do you…mean?"

"When he was here, he said something earlier that really touched me. From that alone, I realized what kind of person he is."

"What was it? Don't tell me his bad joke touched you."

"It's not that, Chi-chan. It's when he said ["I need to go home now. Might miss the train if I stayed later."]"

"What do you mean? Is there something special with what he said?"

"Don't you remember? I asked him to stay the night with us, and then he replied ["I think it's better if I just left you two alone. Besides, Chi-chan here seems like she wants to spend more time with you after all."]"

"Wh-what about that?"

Chiyo's mom showed her a gentle smile as she spoke.

"Before he left, he immediately decided to take the train to leave us two to bond here. He knew you wanted to stay here with me."

"Isn't he just rushing home because the trains are getting more crowded? "

"I'm just guessing here, so I don't really know the whole picture...but when he left, I think he knew you wanted to spend some time with me, and he didn't want to interrupt that."

"Ishikawa? That's impossible, he probably just-"

"I could've just drove him home, you know."

Chiyo's eyes widened as she heard this.

"It was an option that was way more convenient and less of a hassle than forcing himself in a crowded train. If he just let me drive him home, he would've gotten home quicker, but he decided to just go straight home and avoid that."

"M-maybe he just forgot. He just well…"

"Earlier, when he said those words he immediately pointed his eyes on the rose you gave right there. He knew just how much of a spoiled child you are."

"…Mom…"

"I've experienced lots of stuff while taking care of you, Chi-chan. I've met lots of people as well, and I'm confident that I have a solid grasp on how to see through people and their motives. If it was someone with bad intentions you were with, I would have never invited him in our house, but that guy…

…he was different."

"Different?"

Chiyo's mom placed her palm on the back of Chiyo's head as she rubbed her hair.

"His eyes were much more determined than any other guy's I've ever seen before. He had this bad glare he kept all the time, but there was this special thing about them, as if they were those that would never linger."

"What are you…?"

"I just want to tell you this, Chi-chan, but I believe he's the kind of guy who would risk everything, just to protect you."

Chiyo's eyes widened as she heard this.

"M-mom…"

"I want you to take note of that."

__________________________________________________

Chiyo continued running through the fields as the memories she had flashed in her mind.

__________________________________________________

Chiyo sat in what seems to be the clinic, next to Akira's body.

Kana was standing next to her looking at Akira.

"He's a weird guy, isn't he? I really didn't expect that from him."

"What do you mean? Can you please tell me what happened? Why were you guys involved? And what was Ri-chan's ability?"

"… I bet you've already got something in mind, don't you?"

"Does she have some sort of mind manipulation ability? Is that why she was able to make Ishikawa follow him all over?"

"Close. But no, it's way different. It might seem like she was controlling Akira, but that was just a slight part of it, most of it was Akira's free will."

"What? What do you mean?"

"…From what I gathered and what the council told us…

Her ability isn't a 'charm' ability, it is sort of a mind manipulation type but it's different."

"Then what is it?"

Feeling curious and worried, Chiyo asked Kana.

"Desire enhancement. That was the term given by the council about her ability, the ability to enhance desires."

"…what? Do you mean…?"

"The girl did a couple of things with Akira that was necessary to be able to control him to do her bidding. She touched him suggestively, rubbed her body against him, flashed him, basically she seduced him to lust for her and used her ability to enhance his desire for her. This was not that noticeable though, because normally, a skill that makes you 'more horny' is not something people would think exists."

Chiyo showed an incredulous expression as she heard this.

"So basically, the reason Akira kept following her…"

"Was because he was a pervert."

"This idiot!"

Chiyo showed an irritated smile as she clenched her fist while looking at Akira's unconscious body.

"That's why what he did there earlier amazed me."

Suddenly though, as Chiyo was preparing to hit the unconscious Akira, Kana suddenly said something unusual.

"Amazed? What do you mean? How does this guy being a pervert amaze you?"

"Don't you understand? That girl kept making him lust for her, more and more. You probably didn't know what was happening up there earlier, but a bunch of our sentries saw what was going on..."

"What happened?"

"That girl was about to have sex with Akira."

Her eyes widened as she heard this.

"Th-the men there…did say they were gonna do it…but…"

"That was what surprised me."

Kana then walked from Chiyo's side, to Akira's.

"Men are simple creatures, you rub their body, you show them yours and they're dancing in the palm of your hand, but Akira here, was different…"

She stared at his eyes that were closed.

"When the girl started talking about her plan to do harm on you, Akira's desire to protect and rescue you, completely overpowered his lust."

Chiyo's eyes widened as she heard this.

"At that time, usually, a man's libido works before his other desires, the girl thought this as well, and kept at it as she told him about you. Not knowing…that the desire she enhanced…at the last moment… was his extreme desire to protect you."

Chiyo turned to Akira with a surprised expression.

"To me, that's the most amazing thing this idiot ever did.", said Kana.

__________________________________________________

Chiyo kept running through the fields reminiscing those recent memories.

[From Akira's line of sight though, a car was speeding from their left, about to hit Chiyo.

'SHIT!'

"WATCH OUT!"

"What-"

Akira's hand suddenly glowed green as he quickly pulled Chiyo away from the car and hugged her.

*BBBBRRRRRRRROOOOOOOM*

He desperately embraced her in his arms, while panting heavily.]

["I think just being you makes you beautiful."]

["You don't have to go through all the trouble to copy her. You have your own charm with you. You're beautiful, sweet, nice and charming. Your mom might have her charm, but yours is something that you can't underestimate as well, you should realize that."]

["To me, she's just a regular old cute girl."]

She suddenly stopped as she remembered those words he said.

'Ishikawa…'

Her face was red and her hair was messy as she kept her mind on him.

*thump thump thump thump*

Her heartbeat was beating really fast as her mind kept the thought of him.

"He's just so…

…so…"

["I think you're beautiful…

...just the way you are."]

"…C-cool…"

Chiyo was feeling really embarrassed as she left, but decided to go home anyways.

"DUAL AIR BLAST!"

*BBBBBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM*

Akio's attack shook all of the audience from their seats as they watched with excitement.

"Team Ana Laurent and Ishikawa Akio wins the second year tournaments!", States announced as the crowd started cheering

Akira's eyes were wide as he sat with the cheering Akiko.

'He….

He could do two of them….!?'

Not only did Akio hold back whenever he uses his air blast against Akira, he was also able to do two at the time and this thus…greatly surprised Akira.

"Your little brother's really growing up, isn't he, Ra-chan?"

"Heh. I'll beat him next year!"

__________________________________________________

"SOLAR BLADE!"

A large light blade smashed down on the arena.

"Team Luna Rossi and Sol Aris wins the third year tournaments!"

"Man, the third years are packing with strong people, aren't they?", Eiji who was for some reason next to Akira said with a cheery expression.

"Shut the fuck up, Eiji."

Akira showed an incredulous expression though as he felt how incredibly weak his ability is compare to them.

__________________________________________________

"Metal Breaker!"

A large metal fist hit the opponents through the arena, smashing them to the wall.

"Team Susumu Takenaka and Ling Ling wins the fourth year tournaments!"

"That's what you get if you workout regularly.", said Ken.

"I don't think working out would ever give me a giant metal fist.", replied Akira.

__________________________________________________

"Melody of a thousand strings!"

A loud visible Sonic wave was made that immediately defeated their opponents.

"Team Melody Ueno and Rin Mori wins the fifth year tournaments!"

"I wish I never went to school today.", said Keima as he was blocking his ears with an exhausted expression.

"Same.", replied Akira blocking his ears too.

__________________________________________________

"Stone Haven!"

A large wall of stone immediately spawned from the ground, striking their opponents upwards.

"Team Flint Ishigaki and Lailah Kawaguchi wins the sixth year tournaments!"

"Flint Ishigaki, huh. He was the one who took your glory, wasn't he?", Asked Takumi.

"That was a long time ago, besides I bet if the villain were to attack us now, he'd be the one saving me." Akira replied with a normal expression.

"Haaaah."

Akira sighed as they finished their exams.

"Finally after so long."

They were able to finish their midterm exams today as they started to relax.

"It was pretty easy, as long as you kept studying."

"Yeah…"

Akira was stretching as he just finished answering his questionnaire.

"That's it for today, your highnesses. Tomorrow we will be announcing your exam results.", said Sir Knight.

"Yes, sir!"

The class started to stand up as they prepared their bags to go home.

"Still. It was kind of easier than I thought it would be."

"Sir Knight only handicapped us by making sure no one would study only before the exams. He never said it was gonna be too hard."

"Speak for yourselves. Hard being geniuses in this school, huh?", Kami approached them while carrying his bag.

"Geniuses, my ass. If you actually studied rather than mess around during our study sessions, you would have done better."

"Muu.. Akira is bullying me."

"H-hey…"

Suddenly though, as they were talking…

Chiyo suddenly interrupted them.

She seemed to be showing a flustered face as she approached Akira.

"I-ishikawa."

"W-what is it?"

Chiyo just stood there for a few seconds then turned around and walked away.

Kami and the others just all looked at Akira with a wry smile.

"Just what you'd expect from our friendly neighborhood playboy."

"Playboy my ass. Illusion girl's been avoiding me for a month now. I don't know what I even did wrong."

"Did wrong? You mean what you did right. You did say you think you saw her when you said all that on the table in your home, right?"

"What are you talking about?"

"It's nothing, just wait for a while. She's probably too conscious of you to talk to you for now."

Kami just showed him a bright smile as to relieve his worries.

'What the hell are they talking about…?'

__________________________________________________

It was finally the day where they get their results.

Akira was stood there looking at his score.

'Huh? 20th, huh. Not a bad score.'

Out of 200 students from the from the support class, Akira was ranked 20th for their midterm exams.

"Akira…I passed! I'm so glad!"

Kami was crying tears of joy as he saw his results.

"Yeah, yeah cut that out."

The others were also there talking about their results.

Even the girls were looking there. Checking what they got…

One girl there, stood there, looking at Akira from afar.

Maiki was with everyone, checking her score from the board so she wasn't with her.

She immediately gulped as she stared him.

As if she finally gained the courage she hurriedly rushed towards him.

"Like I said the questions in the first page was probably-"

As Akira and Keima were discussing about the exam.

*Boing*

A certain girl suddenly hugged Akira from behind squeezing her soft chest on his back.

"Heya, Akira! What did you get for the exam?"

It was Chiyo, she showed a cute smile as she hugged Akira.

"Wh-what the hell are you doing? G-get off of me!"

Akira suddenly blushed as she did this.

"Come on, Akira! Don't tell me my charm doesn't work on you anymore?"

"J-just get off of me- I -I got 20th, ok? That's it. This is really embarrassing-"

"Thank you."

Suddenly though, as he kept trying to wiggle her away, those words suddenly came out from her mouth.

Words that felt so tender and full of love as she squeezed tighter on him.

"Wanna go out with me?"

Akira's eyes widened as he heard this.

"Wh-what?"

"J-joking! I'm just joking haha! You really are just so cute, aren't you, Akira?"

"Yeah…shut up."

Chiyo showed him a loving smile as she laid her head on his shoulder.

"A-akira-sama? What's going on here?"

"Chiyo? Why don't you get off of him for now? You seem to have forgotten to give Akira some personal space."

"A-akira, you pervert! Get away from her!"

Ai, Megumi and Koka complained at them as they saw this scene.

"T-tell her off, it's not like I want this-"

"Oh come on, really? I know you like feeling my chest. You're just that kind of pervert, aren't you?"

"Wh-what the hell are you saying? Of course I-"

The three girls seem to be getting more and more irritated at the second.

"W-wait…I have nothing to do with this...I…"

Chiyo suddenly pulled Akira's wrist as she tugged him away.

"Wh-what? A-akira-sama?"

"Chiyo-chan! Come back here!"

"Akira, you pervert!"

"Where the hell are you bringing me?"

"Anywhere!"

"What?"

Chiyo then stopped as she turned at the girls following them.

She then pulled her eyelid and showed her tongue at them as to mock them.

"He's mine now."

Akira's eyes widened as well as he heard that.

"Wha-"

The girls seemed completely enraged by this.

Even the usually cute Ai seemed to be in complete rage.

"""CHIYO-CHAN!"""

They then ran off and followed after Chiyo, who kept pulling Akira away with a smile.
