AN: New story! I know I still need to update my other fic, but this one just won't stop bugging me.
Disclaimer: Mana Khemia does not belong to me it belongs to Gust.

"Now, if I just add a little bit of this Mandora Root... There, that should do it" Chloe mumbled as she stirred the ladle of the cauldron. After adding the ingredient to the mixture, a pink puff of smoke appeared. Seeing that the item she was creating was nearly done, Chloe grinned. "Hehehehe, I wonder who to test it on?"

She already knew the answer to that question, yet she still felt the anticipation of choosing her next victim. "Hmm, I guess Ulrika will do hehehe."

"*Yawn* It sure is a lazy day today."

"You know miss, you could actually do your assignments."

"I still have a lot of time Peperoni, besides I have you for that, my little Uryu needs me."

After her last class of the day ended, Ulrika decided to directly go to the workshop to laze around with her mana, contrary to the others who were busily doing their work.

"Hey by the way, have any of you've seen Chloe?" Ulrika observed the room and realized that her childhood friend was nowhere to be seen. "Usually she'd be here making new curses by now, not that I'm complaining though."

"Actually, I did see her here yesterday before I left, I think she was synthesizing something." Enna replied while poking at his mechanical arm. "Oh, I also heard her mention your name while doing it."

"Uh, oh that can't be good." Peperoni shuddered as she looked towards Ulrika.

"H-hey, what are you looking at me for?" Ulrika stuttered as she tried to get up Uryu still in her arms.

"I think you should hide now young lady." Even Goto was already terrified of what may happen. "Have you perhaps done anything lately to warrant her wrath?"

"I-I can't remember anything, was it maybe that time… No! I didn't even try to fight with Miss Fancypants and Jerktown lately." Ulrika was starting to panic, the last time she got cursed, she literally smelled like fresh fish for the whole day, it attracted every feline in school even the beastmen and made everyone else stayed as far as possible including Uryu. "Uhh, who am I kidding? It's Chloe, she doesn't need a reason."

"Well whatever the case is, you should hide" Enna was still busy with his machine as he gave an idea to what to do next.

"I know that! But I have no idea where. She'll easily find me if I hide anywhere in this workshop."

"What about your dorm room?" Asked Peperoni.

"Her room's right next to mine!"

"Well just hide wherever in the campus, this place is pretty big you know." Enna suggested.

"Alright, you guys keep her busy. And take care of Uryu for me Peperoni." Ulrika hurried to the bulky fairy and place Uryu in his hands. "That way even she does catch me Uryu won't get involved, besides she's probably only after me anyway *sigh*"

"Miss, I have no idea how to take care of a baby mana"

"Just do it!"

"Y-yes ma'am"

"Uuryurika?" Before she can get to the door, Uryu called after her.

"Don't worry Uryu, I'll be back later. Now just stay put okay?"

"Uuh!"

Satisfied with his answer, Ulrika ran towards the door and opened it escaping the doom approaching her, but…

"Ow!"

"Ow!"

She bumped to an unexpected someone. Namely, Razeluxe Meitzen, aka Jerktown. Ulrika bumped into him the moment she opened the door, why he was in front of their workshop confused her. Ulrika didn't feel the brunt of the fall since he fell on top of Raze and made the boy received all the pain.

"Jerktown? I don't have time for this!"

"Then get of me will you?! I knew I shouldn't have listened to that girl."

That girl? Who is he talking about? Ulrika thought. Wait, why am I thinking about that? More importantly what's he doing in front of our workshop?

"Would you get off of me now?" Raze repeated, he sounded more irritated than usual.

"O-oh sorry about that." Ulrika stood up and gave the boy a helping hand, though he didn't accept it and stood up on his own. Jerk. "So, why are you literally at my doorstep?"

"I was about to give you a weird potion your friend gave too me… Which is all over you right now." Raze was stumped and stopped dusting off his uniform after realizing the sight in front of him. The pinkish colored potion he was carrying earlier given to him by Chloe Hartzog for unknown reasons, the girl literally burst into their workshop and told him to bring that to Ulrika, he said no of course, but she had something up her sleeves specifically the same blackmail Puniyo used against him earlier and convinced him otherwise. Now that very potion's contents where all over Ulrika, head, face, clothes, legs. It was a mystery how she hasn't noticed it yet, he looked at his clothes if some got to him, luckily none.

"What's all over me?" Ulrika asked and looked at her body, there we're some sticky pink liquid everywhere. "Eeww, what's this?"

"How should I know? Your friend made it."

"Friend? Chloe made this?" Ulrika felt fear and a chill run down her spine. She looked left and right but has not seen the brunette in the vicinity.

"Yeah that's her name, so what is this for anyway?" Raze asked out of curiosity.

"Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no." Ulrika grabbed Raze' collar and closed the vicinity between them. "What. Have. You. Done?!"

"Hey don't ask me, I'm just as a victim as you are." Raze grabbed Ulrika's hands to tear them away from his clothes. At this moment Ulrika felt an intense rise in her body temperature and made her face very flushed.

"D-don't touch me you jerk!" Ulrika tried to get her hands away from him but felt too weak to even stand. What's happening to me? I feel so lightheaded… She looked at Raze and felt even more strained. She still tried to get away but her strength draining. "L-let go of me!"

"Alright, alright. It's not like I even want to, you started it" At that, Raze let go of her hands and turned around halfway before catching a glimpse of the blonde losing her footing. He swiftly moved to catch her, and realized her condition. "Hey do you have a fever or something?"

"*Pant* I *Pant* don't n-need *Pant* your help" Ulrika managed to say in between her pants.

"Don't be stupid, I'll take you to the infirmary" Raze said and carried her bridal style.

Ulrika's consciousness was fading in and out. When she was at least able to stay awake for a few seconds, she immediately tried to get up.

"L-let go of me. I can walk on my own!" Ulrika protested and weakly punched Raze's face.

Getting fed up with her tantrum, Raze put her down and let her walk by herself. "Don't blame me if you collapse."

They were currently in the campus grounds. It was nearing the evening so most of the student had already went back to their dorms making their embarrassing farce less embarrassing. As Ulrika walk lazily like drunk man that just got out of a bar, Raze was able to stifle a laugh. Two meters later, Ulrika collapsed face first. Seeing this, Raze walked towards her.

"I told you, you're too weak right now"

"Shut up…"

After that exchange, Raze once again carried her and proceeded to their destination.

Unbeknownst to them, a brown haired girl with glasses was watching from the bushes.

"I might have made it too strong, well it looks more interesting this way I guess."

Edit: I just realized I put "Moretz" as Chloe's last name, got it mixed up with Chloe Grace Moretz. Anyway it's fixed!
