"Anna…" the old lady started.

"What is it, Kino-sensei?" Anna answered in a monotonous voice.

"They're going to come back…"

Anna's eyes widened for a second but it returned to the original half-lidded ones. "I see…"

"I'm reminding you Anna, don't be too harsh to them… they may be sometimes childish and arrogant but they've have enough of that already… remember that yo-"

Anna cut through the grandma's sentence, "I know sensei… I know…"

In class, Anna sat at the back which is near the window. For every class she just looks out of the window and think about things that are not really that important, things that can remove her boredom. She doesn't need school. She has been homeschooled since she was adopted by the Asakura Clan. Her teachers don't even last long. Why? Her personality played a role but the main cause is that she's too good that all the lessons of a normal person from prep to college were taught to her within the span of five years. There came a point where the teachers appointed don't have anything left to teach her. Well, to sum it all up, she was Elite, in all aspects. She only attended Shinra private high school because she wants to experience a normal life. Since her surname wasn't changed to Asakura and was retained as Kyoyama, living as a normal student can be a breeze except for one reason. People can't stand being around her.

Then again Kino's words echoed in her mind. They're coming back…Truth is, Anna can't remember the face s of the one's Kino mentioned. All of her memories of them were somewhat blurry.

"Kyoyama-san!" a girl from her class shouted at her.

She glared at the girl but the girl looked at her apologetically. "I'm sorry, it's just that I was calling you a while ago and you're not responding. I'm really sorry that I raised my voice." The girl said.

Anna scanned the features of the girl. Short pink hair, pink eyes, all in all- innocent looking. From her facial expressions the girl looked sincere. "It's okay…" she said while her eyes looked out of the window again.

The girl smiled a big smile. Finally! She was able to talk to The Anna Kyoyama! Tamao had always admired Anna. It's true that Anna can be scary but in Tamao's eyes all of her actions are acts of kindness.

Tamao first met Anna at the day of enrollment. Tamao got all the directions mixed up so she tried asking a bunch of guys. Since she can be dense and stupid sometimes, she didn't sense that those guys aren't safe-looking at all. The guys started to flirt with her.

"Hey ojou-chan, you're cute. You look so defenseless, like someone who will listen to any order. Definitely my type," a guy with a lot of tattoos spoke to her.

Anna happened to be passing by that place at that time. She looked at the girl who's being ogled by those disgusting guys. She walked towards the group.

"You're blocking my way, bunch of morons," she said in a completely cold tone.

"Well aren't we lucky today. Two hotties in one day. "The bald one said.

"Move aside, idiots, go to hell," Anna continued, not breaking the icy aura that she has been emitting almost all of the time.

"Missy, you could just come with us, if you don't want to, then this road will be blocked for the rest of your life!" the gang started laughing.

Veins started to pop in Anna's head. She clenched her LEFT fist. After that the guys ran in all directions with violet bruises on their faces shaped like a hand.

"Serves them right…" Anna turned to Tamao who was now sparkling with happiness.

"So you're going to Shinra private high huh. You got lost and you haven't enrolled yet." Anna said.

"Wow! Did you read my mind? Amazing!" Tamao was sparkling even more.

"Dummy, you're holding an enrollment folder for Shinra and this profile page hasn't been stamped yet. With the stamp, you can have your own proof that you have enrolled," Anna explained coolly.

Tamao's eyed are now turning to four-pointed stars now.

"Follow me, I'm going there anyway. "Then Anna started walking.

-Back to reality-

"Uhm, Kyo-" Tamao started.

"Call me Anna, no need to be formal."

"Anna-sama!"

"-Sama?"

"Hai, I'll call you Anna-sama, onegai shimasu! I'm, Tamamura Tamao!" she bowed.

Anna smiled inwardly. What a weird girl.

"Anna-sama! Can I study at you house please!"

Anna was a bit shocked. "I don't really mind…"

"Ariagtou gozaimasu!"

On the other side of the room, three girls glared at Anna.

"Anna-sama, I didn't know that you live by yourself!" Tamao exclaimed as she scanned Anna's apartment.

"Of course you wouldn't know." Anna answered as she opens the door with her keys.

And then…

'That's strange' Anna thought.

The door wasn't locked….

She took a step backward. 'Could it be a robber? That's ridiculous, she had an eye scanner. Only she and the members of the main branch of the Asakura could pass through. It can't be Kino-sensei. She's too old to travel. Yohmei-sama? Keiko-san? Miki? No that can't be possible right now.'

They're coming back…

'Could it be?" Anna thought.

"Anna-sama? Why aren't you going I-" Tamao opened the door and stepped inside when a big metal basin knocked her down.

"Oww, this is a miracle, my plans actually worked!" the one with a childish grin approached the door. Just to find not Anna under the basin but-

"A-sa-ku-ra!" Anna clenched her fists then- you know what happened right?

""ha-ha Yoh, that's a symmetrical design on your face, I told you that childish pranks won't work right?" the one with a longer hair stepped out of the living room. he looked at Anna,"oh, you must be her, Hi Anna!"
