Chapter 1: new school year

Masato stood at the roof looking at the gate of the school he wore the school uniform like everyone else he had the jacket open it flapped in the wind he looked at the empty grounds Ruby walked next to him.

"School starts soon" she said looking at him Masato and Ruby stayed at the school once everyone had left for the holidays between grades because the headmaster had asked him to work for him to protect the school and run errands for him when needed he also didn't have to go to class but Masato had insisted to wear the uniform it was part of him now after the fight with the dragon he knew he would protect the school and this year will probably just as interesting as last year but he hoped he didn't have to use his Phoenix form again he didn't like to use his monster form he knew people they would fear him so he was glad when the headmaster gave him a power limiter which he had put around his arm which was hidden by his jacket it was like a tattoo of vines at circled up his arm so he could use his powers to a high level without transforming.

As Masato and Ruby looked out from the roof they spotted the first bus to pull up it made Ruby smile.

"Tuskune is coming back" she said as if in a day dream

"So are the others" Masato replied and she looked at him

"Yeah I know that"

They kept watching as more and more buses pulled up and students spilled out of them they were all heading for the dorm rooms to put their stuff away school actually started tomorrow it gave the students time to unpack and catch up on friends that they hadn't spoken to over the holidays as Masato and Ruby watch the sea of students go to the dorm rooms a few broke off from the rest and started walking to the school Masato wondered who they were till he saw the only guy out of the group it was tuskune so Ruby and Masato walked down to the front gate to see them as they got to the gate.

"Tuskune!" Ruby yelled as she ran to him and Masato just walked to the group of his friends with his hands in his pockets as Ruby hugged tuskune tight Masato caught up to the group everyone was here Moka, Kurumu, Yukari and Mizore and also tuskune as Ruby kept repeating how much she missed tuskune.

"Hey tuskune and girls" Masato said he nodded to them and tuskune waved and patted Ruby's head and said he missed her too Kurumu hugged Masato and so did Moka and Yukari Masato tried hugging back

"You guys are swishing me" Masato groaned and the girls let him go saying sorry as they did Masato looked at Mizore who was standing a bit away from everyone.

"Hello Mizore" Masato said and waved at her she waved back.

"Hello Masato" she replied then as Ruby broke from her hug of tuskune to the help of Kurumu

"Okay well it good to see you all but you all sure go to your rooms and unpack" Ruby said as she stood next to Masato they nodded and turned and walked away the whole time waving then as they left they both turned and walked back into the school.

Chapter 2: First day

Masato was looking over the students from the roof as they slowly walked into the school people were excited to be back from the holidays Ruby was standing at the gate looking for people that might be a danger to the school she had stopped one huge student and had him empty his pockets taking a knife from him then he left her to go to class then a about half an hour later tuskune and his group came into view and Ruby went to talk to them and Masato was looking at the students and a girl with slightly tanned skin and dark hair walked into the gates of the school Masato's view seemed to only included her in it he thought she was beautiful then she looked up at him and at the distance they were apart he knew she wouldn't know he had been staying he would only look like a silhouette of a person be her looking up to him made him look away from her as if she knew he had been looking at her the bell ran and everyone was in a hurry now and Masato watched as everyone's pace sped up and Ruby stopped talking to tuskune and his friends and they hurried to class.

Tuskune and his friends were hurrying to class he didn't want to be late on the first day as they got to class they took their seats and the class began Tuskune looked over where Masato sat last year and instead a tanned girl with dark hair was sitting in his seat she looked over to tuskune and did a little wave he looked to the front and listened as the bell rang it was time to go to his next class as he left for the class the girl that took Masato's seat walked past him and winked Kurumu held onto tuskune's arm.

"Who is that?" she asked looking at tuskune he shrugged and they went off to class.

As the bell for lunch rang Masato was walking down a corridor to the lunch area he was going to meet Tuskune and the others as he walked into the lunch area it looked good as new because it was one of the places that was fixed up because of last year and this made Masato wonder what else had changed he turned and walked out of the lunch area just as he got into it and walked outside to the sports grounds he hadn't been to the sports grounds since the fight and as he got there he was a little surprised about how it all looked the same even the grass that he had burned away looked the same the shed was where it was before it was burnt to a crisp he turned and looked at the building Moka had crashed into he had already seen the building and he knew it was all fixed but how much it looked the same surprised him and he doesn't get surprised easily so with looking at that he turned and walked back to the lunch area where Tuskune and the others even Ruby were waiting for him they waved and he walked over to them.

"This place looks so new Kurumu and Mizore you messed this place up last year I take it" Masato said as he grabbed a chair from a nearby table and sat down tuskune and the others laughed

"Yes with the monsters face" Kurumu said boldly

"Yeah till you got hit with that table then we fought outside" Mizore said Kurumu face fell a little then they all started talking about what they did on the holidays and how they missed us all but mostly tuskune Masato told them he wasn't surprised about that because they were all in love with him Kurumu told him that he was the one that love tuskune the most and before anyone could argue he stopped them then the bell for the end of lunch rang and everyone got up and went to class except Masato who didn't have classes Ruby was teaching some classes now and she liked it when school was out she had asked if he had wanted to teach a class he had said no because he was bad a teaching about anything.

As the day hit its end everyone Masato lay on his bed in his room in the school the room was next to Ruby's and they sometimes talked through the wall it was this way that Ruby had told him how she admired tuskune so much but now he was just ready to sleep so he closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.
