Chapter 1: The Misunderstanding

"Let's see what's in Set-chan's room today." giggled Konoe Konoka as she snuck into Sakurazaki Setsuna's room.

She got in as quietly as she can even though Setsuna was out training for that morning. Konoka smiled and frowned at most of the stuff that Setsuna had in her room.

A desk with her school bag on top, the bed was neatly done, inside the closet was almost empty save for the school uniform, the widow was closed and the curtain was shut so not that much light came through. Konoka went over to the kitchen and opened the fridge. She frowned as she saw that there was nearly nothing inside.

"Set-chan, you need to go shopping and take care of yourself more." sighed Konoka as she closed the fridge.

Thinking that Setsuna might be back soon, she decided to leave. Just as she was about to open the door, Konoka caught a glimpse of a photo that she never seen before. Deciding that a few more seconds wouldn't hurt, Konoka picked up the picture.

In the picture was a small girl about 3 years old, she had shoulder length white hair and golden yellow eyes, wearing black hakama pants and a white haori shirt. A boy about 4 years old with short silver white hair and blood red eyes, wearing the same thing as the small girl. A young woman who had long raven black hair and brown eyes, wearing a beautiful light blue kimono. There was also a handsome man who has long silver hair, one red and one yellow eye wearing a red hakama pants and shirt. It was hard to see the picture because it was faded, yellow and torn up a bit.

"Who…" Hearing a small 'thunk' Konoka looked down and saw a small silver chain necklace with a small crystal on it, "Wait…" Konoka examined the necklace and then the photo and back at the necklace, "It's the same…it's the same as that boy."

Konoka jumped a bit as she heard the door open, "Se…Set-chan…?"

"Ojou-sama?" Setsuna flipped on the light and saw Konoka holding onto a picture and the necklace, "What are you doing in here and why are you looking at that?"

"Oh this? Sorry Set-chan. I just wanted to look at what you had in your room since I don't really come in here much." Konoka hit herself in the head and stuck her tongue out.

"I…See…" Setsuna's attention was mostly on the picture and necklace that Konoka was holding onto.

Noticing what Setsuna was looking at, Konoka put everything back, "Sorry again Set-chan, guess I should be going now." Konoka ran out after that.

'She saw it…I hope that she doesn't think of anything weird…' thought Setsuna, picking up the necklace in her hands.


As soon as Konoka got back to her room, she began to cook, 'Who was that in the picture? Why did Set-chan have that picture and necklace?'

"…-ka."

'She never told me anything about that.'

"…-noka.'

'Why would she keep a secret like that from me? I thought that we were friends.'

"Konoka!"

Konoka snapped from her thoughts and looked at Asuna.

"Oh what's up?"

"Don't 'Oh what's up' me! What's wrong?" asked Asuna, "As much of an air head you are, you never space out this much!"

"It's nothing Asuna." smiled Konoka.

"You sure? Setsuna-san is here and we've been calling you for like 5 minutes."

Konoka looked behind her and saw Setsuna looking at her with worried eyes, "Is there something wrong Ojou-sama?"

Konoka bit her lip, thinking if she should ask Setsuna about the boy in the photo and the necklace that she has.

"Konoka?"

"Konoka-san?"

"Set-chan, can we talk?" Konoka turned off the stove and led Setsuna outside of the room.

"What is it Ojou-sama?"

"Set-chan…we've been friends since we were five right? We talked to each other of what we missed during the time between you leaving me and returning to this school…"

"What are you getting at?"

Konoka looked at Setsuna through teary eyes, "Who was that boy Set-chan? Why do you have the same necklace that he has?"

Setsuna clenched her fists, "That…is none of your concern Ojou-sama…"

"Sakurazaki-senpai!" a girl came running, "Come on! Today is your turn to help us with the kendo club!"

"Oh right! Sorry Ojou-sama, I have to take my leave now." Setsuna left with the girl, leaving Konoka alone.

"Set-chan…"


"What's the matter Sakurazaki? It's not like you to be spacing out like this."

"It's nothing…I'm just…worried that Ojou-sama might have a misunderstanding." Setsuna ran her hand through her hair, "Why can't I just tell her?"

"About what?"

"…Something that I can't tell anyone…" she sighed, "But if I don't tell her, she's going to be asking me about it every time we see each other…"

"Then just tell her."

"I guess you're right."

"Good, now get back to work!"


"What?! Setsuna-san is keeping a secret from you?" exclaimed Asuna as she, Negi, and Konoka walked to school.

Konoka nodded, "It seems like she won't tell me anything anymore…not to mention that there are some boys in this school that looks like the one in Set-chan's picture…"

"What?"

Konoka sighed as she left Asuna and Negi, "I need to be alone…"

She walked around and wandered into the Kendo clubroom where she saw Setsuna helping a boy up.

"Thanks Sakurazaki." he laughed sheepishly, "Guess I still need a lot of work to do to reach your level."

Setsuna shook her head, "No, I was training since I was five. You could beat me eventually. Most likely before we graduate."

Everyone in the room looked at Setsuna, "You feeling alright Sakurazaki?"

Realizing what she just said, Setsuna packed all her things and ran out of the room, never noticing Konoka.

'Set-chan…' a dark aura slowly surrounded Konoka, 'I'll make you mine…'


Me: End of chapter 1! Yeah! Sorry for the weirdness and stuff. Too tired right now to recheck it.

Setsuna: I would never do things like that to Ojou-sama!

Me: Relax, things might be better. -grins mischievously-

Setsuna: I don't like the way that you're grinning like that ¬¬

Konoka: Don't be like that Set-chan…you have been avoiding me lately… :[

Setsuna: No I haven't!

Konoka: Yes you have!

Me: Ladies go get a room! Do whatever you want there but not here got it! Anyways, thanks PureWiings and setsuna-kun for the quick review in the prologue! Please continue to read and review! See ya!


Preview:

"Ojou-sama?" Setsuna breathed heavily as she found Konoka sitting alone in the forest, "Let's go before it gets dark."

"Set-chan…you really didn't 'like' me after all…" Konoka was now surrounded by a black aura.

"What?!"

As soon as the black aura disappeared, Konoka is now wearing a large black tight gown that showed her curves and everything else nicely making Setsuna blushed, "Don't be shy now Set-chan, everything that you see belong-to-you."
