Chapter 2: Prisoner

The snow kept falling almost all day fortunately it stopped before sunset, but it was getting colder students were sent to their rooms where they could be safe. Only one person was outside and heading to the headmaster's office, she knocked the door and waited.

"Come in" said an old voice from the inside "oh tatsumiya-kun, I was expecting you to come later"

"yes, sir" she said politely "but something happened, looks like we have an intruder in the school"

"hhmm, is it a demon?" konoemon asked

"actually it was Setsuna the one who saw the intruder" Mana admitted "she was attacked by it"

"oh my! Is she okay?" konoemon asked

"yes, your granddaughter is taking care of her right now"

"sokka" konoemon said "tatsumiya-kun, I have a favor to ask to you"

"yes, sir?"

"Could you please send this to Tahakata-sensei?" Konoemon said "you can read it if you want" Mana grabbed the paper from his desk and read.

"ah? Are you sure about this?" she asked

"Snow during spring it's not normal, tatsumiya-kun" Konoemon said as he turned to face outside from the window "this was caused by some magic user… or a demon" he paused "the students'll be in danger if this continues"

"hai, you're right" Mana said "well then, I'll delivered this message now"

"please" Konoemon said and Mana left after bowing


Konoka POV:

I feel like I'm floating in space, everything is so dark but I'm not afraid; somehow I feel safe, like I have an angel watching and protecting me-Secchan- how silly, of course I have one.

"Where are you?" I heard a voice, a girl's voice. Looks like it's calling for me but it doesn't sound familiar.

"here you are" I turned around to see a white-haired girl in front of me with her hand extended to me "I was worried, let's go"

"Who are you?" I asked her

"just take my hand and we'll go back"

"go back?"

"I don't wanna leave" I told her, she looked hurt

"that raven-haired girl did something to you" she said calmly but then "I'll make her pay" her ayes turned from light-blue to a shinning red.

"Don't…"

Normal POV

Konoka and Setsuna fell asleep since morning, sunset has already past. Setsuna was completely aseelp; after all, she was recovering from what happened earlier. But it looks like Konoka wasn't sleeping so well.

"Don't hurt her!! She woke up "ah a nightmare! She relaxed and found herself in Setsuna's arms "she does look like an angel, evne more when she sleeps" she thought while blushing

"Kono-chan" Setsuna murmured in her sleep and smiled

"Secchan is dreaming about me" Konoka thought happily and caress Setsuna's cheek, suddenly the door opened and an upset Asuna entered.

"Konoka! Here you are!" Asuna said, then she saw their position and stayed still "What were you two doing?"

"ah? Eh you're wrong" Konoka claimed "It's not what you think" she tried to get up but Setsuna didn't help her at all, she was pulling her closer.

"oh really?" Asuna smirked "well I'll leave you two alone for a while" she was about to go but "oh wait! I can't, I had to tell you something important"

"what is it, Asuna?"

"first, wake her up" Asuna said. Konoka tried but failed, Setsuna was really tired after all, but then she had a great idea

"Secchan help me!" Konoka screamed and Setsuna was quickly awake with Yuunagi in her hands, she had jumped from the bed and was ready to attack but then she realized there was no danger around.

"uh? What's wrong ojou-sama?" she asked confused

Konoka got upset when she heard 'ojou-sama' again and she decided to teased Setsuna "oh nothing I was just trying to wake you up, you really sleep a lot" she paused "nee.. was I in your dreams?" she made the most innocent face she could

"eh!? How did she?"

"you talked" Konoka giggled "and also wouldn't let me go" she was getting closer to Setsuna "actually you were pulling me closer… and closer" Konoka said seductively

"ah ah I-" Setsuna tried to excused her but she couldn't articulate any word

"guys! I'm still here!" Asuna had just save Setsuna from nose bleeding

"ah yeah right, sorry Asuna" Konoka smiled "I just wanted to teased secchan, so what's the important thing?"

"there was an announcement this afternoon" Asuna started "Classes will be posponed until weather gets better, until then the students must leave the school and go home" she quoted

"ah? Why did gramps decide that?" Konoka asked

"Don't know" Asuna said "but we need to prepared for whatever is gonna happen"

"Asuna-san can you watch over ojou-sama for a while" Setsuna told her

"eh? Secchan, where are you going?" Konoka said sadly and worried "you can't go out with those injuries"

"Don't worry about me ojou-sama" Setsuna comforted her "I'll be fine, I just need to talk to the headmaster"

"then we'll go with you"

"No!" Setsuna raised her voice " sorry but if the headmaster sent everyone out of school is because something dangerous is out there; you must stay here, the talismans around my room will protect you"

"But…" Konoka was now looking down to the floor "I don't want you to leave" Setsuna looked surprised and smiled, she then whispered to konoka's ear "I don't want to either, but I have to, don't worry I'll be back soon" and gave her a quick kiss in her cheek "I leave her to you Asuna-san" and left.

Konoka couldn't move, she was confused, happy, anxious, nervous, etc etc "she kissed me…though it was only in the cheek, but she kissed me!!" she couldn't believe her Secchan had just kissed her.

"So, something did happen eh?" Asuna smirked


Setsuna walked as fast as she could, like someone was following her but there wasn't, her heart was beating like crazy "oh god, what did I do?" She thought "how I am going to face her now!?". But then the corridor became colder and a weird fog appeared "Kuso! It must be her" she said mentally "show yourself!" she commanded while holding Yuunagi tighter.

"You're very stubborn, aren't you?" said the white-haired girl "where did you take her?"

"What are you talkin about?" Setsuna asked

"don't play fool with me!" the girl was starting to get annoyed "you even smell like her" the girl's eyes turned to a shinning red

"a demon!?" setsuna's eyes widened "the bird tribe?"

"hm half-demon" the girl corrected "now tell me where do you keep her or do I have to torture you to talk?" she didn't wait for an answer and went straight to setsuna's chest in order to stick her claws in her heart, but setsuna dodged it on time and the battle started "How do you plan to fight without a weapon?" Setsuna asked

"uh? Heh! So you're asking me to kill you, eh?" she expand her arm and a black sword came to her hand "wel then, let's kill her Kurogami" she moved with a great speed and appeared in front of Setsuna in less than a second, she attacked but Setsuna was able to block it. Setsuna moved away from her "Kuso! I'm still hurt from th last time…" she was weak because of that. The girl hurled herself to Setsuna and started to slash like crazy, the only thing Setsuna could do was block

"What's wrong? Is that all you know?" the girl mocked

"kuso, what can I do?"Setsuna was desperate and didn't notice that the girl moved behind her, she kicked her making Setsuna impact with the wall, her injuries started bleeding again.

"now tell me" the girl ordered but no answer came "hmp, it can't be helped, die!" she was about to stick her sword in Setsuna's heart but then someone hit her throwing her away "eh! What the-" Setsuna said mentally

"Don't you dare to touch our friend!" said the red-haired Asuna

"Secchan, secchan!" Konoka run to her "you're bleeding again, let me help you" Setsuna was tired enough to oppose so she didn't say anything

"comrades?" the girl asked while standing and clean herself "that won't make any-" she stopped when she saw Konoka (and Setsuna noticed that) "ojou-"

"Do it now Negi!" Asuna yelled and Negi appeared casting a spell, the the girl found herself tied by magical ropes and couldn't set herself free.

They took her to Asuna's room in order to interrogate her


"you don't look so strong now, brat" Asuna mocked her but the girl didn't say anything

"well tell us" Negi started "what do you want from Setsuna-san" Negi's voice was very serious, but the girl didn't answer

"Asuna-san, Negi-sensei go with the headmaster" Setsuna intervened "I have an idea"

"are you-" Negi said but was interrumped by Asuna (she grabbed him by the neck) "Ikuzo negi-bozou"

"they left, can you talk now?" Setsuna asked but the girl looked away "Look, I know you are not an enemy, so…" Setsuna cut the ropes

"Secchan what are you doing?"

"just trust me"
