"Has anyone seen Setsuna?" Konoka's sweet voice called out over the noisy classroom. Her classmates stopped in their chatter and looked around the room. They all looked back at her and shook their heads.

"Come to think of it, I haven't see Setsuna all day." Negi spoke. Chamo and Asuna both nodded their heads in agreement.

"Yeah now that you mention it… I mean she didn't even come pick Konoka up this morning like she always does. It's strange seeing as how she's like your shadow." Asuna said to Konoka, who didn't seem to be paying attention.

"Oh, well. I'm going to go look for her."

"What us to come with you?" Asuna asked. Konoka shook her head.

"No thanks. I rather go look for her myself."

"Alright. Call if you need any help though."

"And we'll let you know if we see heads or tails of her." Negi said to his student in a reassuring voice. As Konoka left the room, Negi, Asuna, and Chamo began to talk amongst themselves.

"Hey Negi I did see Setsuna earlier."

"What!" Asuna shouted.

"Well… if I recall I saw her going to the Dean's office." Chamo folded his tiny arms and nodded to himself. Unbeknownst to him, Asuna had raised her fist near his head. She struck him hard dead center knocking him off Negi's shoulder.

"AH! ASUNA! CHAMO ARE YOU ALRIGHT?" Negi screamed and asked worryingly.

"YOU DAMN RAT! HOW COULD YOU FORGET TO TELL SOMETHING SO IMPORTANT TO KONOKA?"

"I FORGOT! AND I'M NOT A RAT! I'M AN ERMINE!" He shouted back at Asuna breathing heavily, as he held his head in great pain. Negi went to go pick him up but was held back by Asuna. She placed her hand on his face holding him back while with her other hand picked up Chamo in a crushing manner.

"Asuna! Let go of me!" Negi's pleads were muffled by Asuna's hand and in which she paid no attention to him. She seemed to be taking pleasure in squeezing Chamo in her hand every few seconds.

"Listen to me you rat!" She said and squeezed Chamo a bit more.

"OWWWW! YOU'RE GONNA SQUEEZE OUT MY GUTS!"

"BE LUCKY THAT'S ALL I'LL DO TO YOU! NOW GO CATCH UP WITH KONOKA AND TELL HER WHERE SETSUNA IS!" Asuna yelled at the top of her lungs at the helpless ermine, as she flung him out the door of the classroom.

"CHAMO!" Negi yelled and tried to go after him but Asuna grabbed him by the collar of his neck.

"No, Negi let him go on his own. It's his fault in the first place. He should've known better."

"Asuna! Let go of our Teacher. Get your grubby hands off him."

"Mind your own business Ayaka!"

"I'll mind my own business when you leave Professor Negi alone!" Ayaka slapped Asuna's hand away from Negi's collar. She then grabbed Negi in her arms coddling him and smashing him into her chest.

"Oh Professor Negi! Did she hurt you? I'll make sure that beast is dealt with." Ayaka spoke with distaste.

"WHO ARE YOUCALLING A BEAST!" Asuna shouted back while rolling up her sleeves.

"YOU! WHO ELSE WOULD I BE TALKING TO BELLS!" Ayaka released Negi, who finally got some air to breath, and stepped up close to Asuna getting right in her face.

"Now girls please calm down." Negi said politely in a calm voice. Both Asuna and Ayaka stared coldly at Negi.

"STAY OUT OF THIS!" They said in unison to him. Negi weakly smile and put up his hand in defense. The girls went back to quarreling amongst themselves. Negi let out a huge disappointing sigh.

As they continued to exchange some unruly words and Negi in the mist of things and the whole class in an uproar about who was going to win the fight; Chamo was in search of Konoka who wasn't too far from her Grandfather's office. Chamo quickly caught up to Konoka as she turned down the hall, he called out to her and ran up the back of her leg climbing her back and slumped over her shoulder.

"Hey, Chamo. Is something wrong?"

"No! (huff) Everything's (wheeze) fine!" He said through his shallow breaths.

"Really? You look… well tired." Chamo's beady eyes widened. He then struck a heroic pose taking a deep breath and pounded on his chest.

"NO WAY! I'm fit as a fiddle baby! I'm still goin' strong! Nothing's gonna slow me down!" He then let out the air he was holding in. She smiled at the ermine and then padded him on his head. They both continued down the hall, Chamo of course gladly sat on her shoulder enjoying the ride. As they got close to the door of the Dean's office, they were able to hear voices.

"From the sound of it… it doesn't sound too good." Chamo stated and he leaned over placing the side of his head closer to the door. Konoka placed her ear against the door. Her eyes widened as she heard both her Grandfather and a familiar voice speaking loudly.

"Sir if I may. That sounds clearly unacceptable!"

"Are you questioning me Setsuna?"

"No, Sir. But it would be against Miss Konoka's will."

"I know what's best for my Granddaughter. And you best know your place."

"But—

"I know you care greatly for her. You've been her protector and best friend for many years. So don't think I don't understand your feelings, but she's at that age where she must start thinking of her future." Setsuna bared her teeth and gripped tightly onto the sheath of her sword.

"What about her future? You don't know if this is what she would want! All you care about is continuing the family line!"

"Setsuna! You're being insubordinate. You realize if this behavior of yours continues I'll have no choice but to send you back. Please don't make me do something so awful. I don't want to think that I made a poor choice in asking you to watch over Konoka while she attends this school, further more I know how much it would displease her to see you go.

". . ."

"So are we agreed then?"

". . ."

"Sakurazaki?"

"Yes, Sir. I understand what it is I must do." Setsuna displeasingly stated and agreed. She bowed to the Dean before leaving the room. She opened the door and slammed it shut behind her. Setsuna began to walk back down the hall to the classroom, and slammed her fist hard into the wall leaving a descent sized crater in it. Konoka and Chamo; who had earlier hid behind the corner opposite the direction Setsuna was going in watched horrified at her actions. Chamo jumped off Konoka's shoulder and took a few steps out in front of her.

"Whoa! Never seen her that angry before. I wonder what could've made her so angry. Then again I wonder what her and the Dean where speaking about. Konoka what do you—Konoka!" Chamo had called out to her as he saw her racing to her Grandfather's office.
