Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN MY DEAREST SHANA, KONOE, AND OTHER SnS CHARS. How sad...

Shana was eating melon bread again on the front of the computer. The crumbs fell to the keyboard and again making it hard to press the keys. Chigusa was as irritated as usual.

"SHANA! How many times did I tell you not to eat bread on top of the keyboard?"

Shana finished her melon bread. "I'm sorry, Chigusa-san..."

She turned off the computer and prepared herself to go to dreamland. Ever since Yuji chose her over Kazumi, she has the best of the best dreams. But she didn't tell it to anyone. When Yuji comes back home, she would narrate all of them to him.

Days passed by without any word from Yuji. Shana always checked her inbox, but all of the mails were spam and all of them were related to viagras, condoms, astrologists, cosmetics, and other things Shana would like to cut down with her katana. She missed training with Yuji.

Konoe passed by the Sakai residence daily to cheer Shana up. Chigusa was always so irritable, and Wilhelmina was always busy. Unbeknownst to Shana, Konoe has an ulterior motive in going to her house.

One cold night, Chigusa forgot to close the front door. She went to sleep upstairs, thinking everything is already settled.

Midnight.

Shana went down to get some cold water because she had her first nightmare. It was about Yuji being swallowed up in the darkness with Sydonay. As she tiptoed down, a cold wind swept by. She lost her balance and landed on the floor, face-flat. When she tried to get up, she couldn't. She saw a naked Konoe on top of her before she passed out.
