The Heroine Gets Her Reward


Juri Arisugawa had had a long day as it was, dealing with classes and teachers who'd evidenced inappropriate desire for her even as they knew better than to act on it, preparing for fencing club and making sure that everyone was paired off appropriately and not against anyone that they would truly attempt to injure or even be tempted to do so, and fulfilling her obligations to the Student Council, the latter of which was facing significant delays thanks to a certain Student Council President not being where he was supposed to be. Juri was forced to roam the Ohtori Academy campus, her steely and icy demeanor keeping other students from slowing her down with requests to take pictures with them or accept love letters from them or the like. "Madmoiselle, I assure you, I would love to enjoy your company further." She heard Touga's silky baritone and fought her gag reflex; there were plenty of boys and girls at Ohtori who liked that sort of thing, but she was never one of them. Juri went around the corner and found her target, Touga Kiryuu, standing over a girl who barely reached up to his chest; he was tall, but even so...

"Have you no decency Touga?" Touga turned to face Juri, who stood with her arms crossed over her chest; his smile faltered but did not drop. "Are you completely incapable of being a decent human being and not hitting on someone too young to know better than to listen to your phony words?" Juri shook her head; normally she'd just press on to getting Touga to sign the papers she needed him to sign, but the day had gone on long enough and she needed to do this first. "Touga Kiryuu, for deriliction in your duty and responsibility to the Student Council, I invoke Clause 7, Paragraph 3 of the Student Council charter."

Touga's eyes widened in alarm, his smile was vanquished. "Juri, you can not possibly be serious." He tried to keep his cool, but he was exposed, both in front of his target and in front of other students who'd overheard and gathered to watch.

"In accordance with the aforementioned clause and paragraph, you are forthwith confined to your room and are to attend to the backlog of requests that have been submitted to the Student Council, and until all are completed and addressed you are not to leave your room. Is that understood, Touga Kiryuu?"

"Of course, Juri." Touga sighed, turned back to his target. "Forgive me, I'm afraid I will have to enjoy your company another time."

"TOUGA!" Juri snapped at him, watched him leave in a fast walk, then she turned and walked away herself.

"That was impressive Miss Juri." She looked and saw her fellow student council member Miki, and despite everything her mood lightened up. "I could never invoke Student Council charter the way that you do."

"It was inspiring." Shiori Takatsuki, her fellow fencing club member, said. She shared a look with Miki, and before Juri could wonder about it, Miki and Shiori moved in and each kissed her on her cheeks!

"I...I..." Juri was befuddled, her face was red, the Frozen Leopardess of Ohotri Academy was off her guard!

"The heroine deserves a reward for her bravery, right?" Shiori said, her face red to.

"It is fitting, isn't it Miss Juri." Somehow, Miki's face was even redder than Juri and Shiori's combined.

"Yes, yes it is." Life was hard sometimes, but it was worth it all the same.
