Within the residence of Mrs. Aono all was quiet. Inside the living room nothing was moving or making a sound. Daylight was shining in from outside, the specs of dust in the light by the window seeming to stand perfectly still. Ruby was watching with surprise at Falla, the chronofly who had managed to escape her dimensional prison and return to the real world. Kneeling down on the floor Kyouko and Mrs. Aono were looking down worriedly at another girl, a girl with green eyes who was staring intently at Falla. All was quiet in the household, as nothing was moving. Well, almost nothing.

Luna slowly got up from the ground, keeping her eyes locked onto Falla who remained frozen in place. The chronofly growled and reached out for her sister, then cringed as pain shot through her head. Her world started spinning as her mind struggled to remain focused. Suddenly the world shifted back to normal time, the four other figures in the room resuming their motions. Everybody blinked then looked over to see Luna struggling to stand, the girl then dropping to one knee as she cringed in pain.

"Wha… how did you get up so fast?" Kyouko asked surprised. Ruby looked at her with awe then glanced to Falla. The dark sister was watching her sister with a careful eye. Falla then smirked and chuckled as she saw Luna struggling to get up.

"What's wrong dear sister? Is your head still hurting? Try not to push yourself too hard," she said innocently.

"She's your sister?" Mrs. Aono asked as she and Kyouko looked at Luna with worry.

"Yes, she was trying to say my name just now. Falla," Falla said with a coy smile. Ruby looked at her cautiously then to Luna, the girl shaking her head as her world kept spinning. Luna shakily looked up at the dark sister with weary eyes.

'I can't… focus… my mind… it hurts so much…'

"What's wrong with her?" Kyouko asked as Luna dropped to both her knees while holding her head.

"Oh dear, you must have really hit her hard with your bike. We'd better get her to a hospital," Mrs. Aono said worriedly.

"No!" Ruby shouted out, the group looking to her while Luna struggled to stay conscious. The witch looked around then to Luna with fear.

'If they take her to a human hospital they'll find out what she is. I can't let them do that; we need to get her back to the academy.'

"I mean, she just needs to rest. That's all," Ruby said with an eager nod. Luna screamed out then dropped down, collapsing on the ground in front of them.

"Oh no, are you ok? Hey!" Kyouko said shaking the girl who was out cold.

"Oh dear, I'll get my keys. We need to get her to a hospital right away," Mrs. Aono said as she ran back out of the room. Ruby shook her head and looked to Falla, the sister watching Luna with a dull stare. The girl glanced to Ruby with a raised eyebrow. Ruby walked over and kept a close eye on Kyouko.

"We can't let them take her to a human hospital," she said in a hushed tone.

"And I should care why?" Falla said flatly.

"I'd say because she's your sister, but I can tell how much that means to you. But consider this, if they find out what she is she's a goner, then there goes your chance on her finishing that spell you were blabbering about," Ruby snapped quietly. Falla blinked then growled in frustration. She hated to admit it but she needed her sister alive to finish the incantation.

"Fine, what do you want me to do then? I can't make her pain go away," she said shaking her head.

"I don't know, think of something," Ruby said looking at Luna with worry. Falla sighed and glanced up thoughtfully. After a moment she looked to Kyouko.

"You don't need to worry. She's always had headaches like that. They'll go away soon," she said in a bored tone. Kyouko looked back to her curiously.

"What? She's always had them?" she said confused. Ruby nodded eagerly.

"Yes, it's… a condition she has. She'll be fine, I assure you. She just needs to lie down and rest," she said quickly. Kyouko looked at her curiously then glanced to where her aunt had raced off.

"She's… not human is she?" Kyouko said with an interested tone.

"Oh no, she knows. Guess I'll have to kill her. Too bad," Falla said with a shrug and a dull tone. Ruby jumped a bit then shook her head at her while Kyouko stared at her with surprise.

"No, she already knows about Yokai Academy! She's on our side!" Ruby said with fear. Falla just looked at Kyouko with a bored expression.

"I'm right aren't I? She's a monster too," Kyouko said with a small smile.

"Well… yes, she is. Please don't let your aunt take her to a human hospital," Ruby said worriedly. Kyouko nodded and looked to Luna. After a pause she looked towards the entryway.

"Hey auntie, don't worry about it. Falla says she just has a condition, it's perfectly normal," she called out. Mrs. Aono came back in with her keys in her hand.

"What? A condition? Are you sure, that looked to be pretty bad," she said worriedly as she walked over to them.

"Yeah, she has them every now and then. Pay her no mind, really," Falla said with a wave of the hand. She kept looking away with a bored expression as Ruby smiled and nodded nervously. After a long pause Mrs. Aono slowly nodded.

"Well, if you say so. Um… can we do anything to help her?" she asked curiously.

"Just let the bitch sleep," Falla muttered. Ruby elbowed her in the gut, the girl jerking back and grunting. She rolled her eye then looked to the woman with a smirk.

"Just let her sleep. She'll be perfectly fine," she said simply.

"If you say so. I hope the dear will be ok," the woman said gently. Kyouko looked at Falla with high interest.

"Um… sorry about your dress," she said softly. Falla blinked then glanced to her.

"My dress has been torn, dragged through coarse sand, and soaked in the ocean so far. What else could be wrong with it?" she asked flatly. Kyouko smiled weakly and pointed to her back. Falla looked at her puzzled then behind her. On her back was a black tire mark where the bike had rolled over her. Falla growled and looked up with frustration.

"I hate this day," she said bitterly. Ruby smirked at the girl with amusement as Kyouko looked at the worn dress of the chronofly. She then jumped up and ran over to her with a bright smile.

"I know, I'll take you out shopping. It's the least I can do after I ran you over. C'mon, we'll get you some new clothes, my treat," she said as she grabbed her hand and pulled her towards the door.

"Hey, what do you think you're doing? Let me go this instant, hey, are you listening to me?" Falla barked out as she was dragged out of the house. Ruby watched with worry as she held out a hand toward them. She then looked to Luna sleeping on the ground with fear.

'Oh no no no, this is so not good. I need to get the others here quickly before this blows apart.'

"My dear, is everything ok? You look troubled," Mrs. Aono asked curiously. Ruby jumped a bit then looked at her with a nervous smile.

"Yes. I'm alright, although I should call the academy. They will need to know we're still aliv- I mean that we're ok," she stammered with a nod.

"Oh, of course. The phone is out in the hall to your right. Go right ahead," the woman said with a kind smile. She looked down to Luna curiously.

"What's her name?" she asked as she knelt down beside her.

"It's Luna. Luna Cii," Ruby said with a soft smile at her friend.

"Lunacy?" the woman asked looking up confusedly. Ruby shook her head with a smirk.

"No. Luna Cii. I must call the academy at once. Please, if it's not too much trouble, could you look over her for a moment?" Ruby asked kindly.

"Of course. Any friend of Tsukune's is more than welcome here," Mrs. Aono said as she laid the chronofly back down on the comforter and rested a new pillow under her head. Ruby smiled at the woman then quickly ran out into the hall. She glanced to the front door worriedly.

'Tsukune's cousin is with Luna's demented sister who came back from the dead… yeah, he's going to kill me.'

She rushed over to the phone on the table in the hall and quickly dialed some numbers, the witch looking around nervously as she waited for the other line to pick up.

"Hello, this is Ruby Tojo. Put me through to the headmaster immediately, this is an emergency," she said with urgency.


The group was gathered outside the front gates of the academy. They had searched the surrounding areas and buildings of the academy for their missing friends but found no trace of where they were or where they went.

"Well great. If they aren't here where could they have gone?" Gin said scratching his head.

"We won't know until they come back to us. Like with Hokuto, we have to wait for them to come to us," Dark said simply.

"How is he hearing us?" Kahlua asked curiously.

"I already told you, he reads lips," Mizore said flatly.

"He's right though, I just hope they're ok," Tsukune said worriedly. He looked to Akua and Kahlua, the two vampires standing at the edge of the group and watching him curiously.

"So what did the headmaster say about those two?" Kurumu asked with a dull glare at them.

"Seeing as how our father ordered them to attend here, the headmaster is willing to give them a chance. Needless to say they are on a zero tolerance stay though," Inner Moka said with annoyance.

"You two really are going to be here for classes? Don't you already know about humans though?" Ahakon asked curiously.

"They know how to try to kill humans, not what father had in mind for them," Kokoa said with narrowed eyes at the two girls.

"Again, how long are you going to keep throwing that in our faces? We're here to learn are we not?" Akua said rolling her eyes.

"Still think you would have learned something faster if your father beat you into the ground," Kurumu said with a glare as she clung to her angel's arm. The boy gave the two sisters a dull stare, not quite in a forgiving mood with those two just yet.

"Dark pointed out that he's done worse. If you can forgive him than you can do so with them as well," Mizore said coolly. The group looked at her with a bit of surprise as Akua and Kahlua looked at Dark curiously.

"You're going to stand up for them now?" Yukari said bewildered.

"My boyfriend is willing to give them a chance. So will I," Mizore said simply. Tsukune smiled at her then to Dark.

"Have you forgotten what they did? They helped with the world being nearly annihilated, Dark never did anything so cruel," Kurumu said shaking her head.

"The blood of an innocent girl is on my hands. That's just as bad. Give them a chance to prove themselves," Dark said glancing to the two sisters. The group looked at him then to the two vampires.

"I hate it when he makes a point like that," Inner Moka said looking away with a scoff. Kokoa looked at Dark curiously then to her sisters.

"Thank you Dark," Akua said politely. The demon just eyed her for a moment then looked away.

"They'll be attending classes with us, try to get along otherwise this school year is going to drag on," Tsukune said rubbing the back of his head. Kokoa sighed and held onto her boyfriend's arm, just wanting this endless nightmare to freakin' end already. Gin looked to his girl then to the two new vampires. He wasn't about to say he was all for the idea of them being in the same school as them, but saw Tsukune and Dark's points about them. Kurumu held onto her angel, the bond flowing through somewhat calming her down. She sighed then looked up worriedly. Even though Luna had always pounced on her boyfriend without warning and stole a few kisses from him, she was concerned greatly about her friend's disappearance. Rason held his girl close and looked off into the sky, wondering where Luna could have possibly gone with Ruby. Mizore looked to her boyfriend with admiration, ready to follow him wherever he may go. She understood how Felucia felt towards him and why, and she wouldn't dare question her demon's judgment or calls, knowing in her heart that he knew what was best. Dark kept thinking about any possible way to track down Hokuto and find Felucia. There were no longer any leads and he was growing frustrated. The fact that the two vampire sisters from Fairy Tale had arrived and Luna had gone missing didn't really push into his mind too much at the moment. Tsukune looked at the two girls who were just eyeing him curiously, trying to think of how to manage all the crazy shit that has happened for him today alone. Inner Moka glanced to her mate then to her sisters. Tsukune had to take care and watch over all four sisters, even Kokoa despite Gin's insistence that he could, or else her father would not trust him with her at all. If she was to be with the love of her life forever she had to make sure her sisters behaved while at school, should they fail at that her boyfriend may be taken away yet again.

"Alright. Let's just take a break for now and unwind. We've all dealt with a lot so far today and something tells me more is coming our way," Tsukune said with a nod. He looked to the Akua and Kahlua with a small smile.

"You two need to pick up your school uniforms as well. You're going to be students like Moka and Kokoa, you need to dress the part," he said with a kind tone. Akua and Kahlua looked at him curiously then to each other.

"We have to wear such things? Really?" Akua said looking to Inner Moka's uniform.

"I'm not really up for the miniskirt thing," Kahlua said softly.

"My mate told you what to do, he wasn't asking," Inner Moka said sternly. The two girls flinched and nodded.

"Right," they said slowly. Tsukune chuckled then glanced to Inner Moka. The vampire smiled at him softly then took the rosary out of her pocket. She walked up to her boyfriend with a calm smile.

"Alright, the other one want's her time with you too. I'll be waiting Tsukune, don't make me wait too long," she said with a wink. Tsukune nodded and pulled her into a gentle kiss, the girl closing her eyes and holding him as well. The two sisters looked at them with raised eyebrows then away. Once the kiss ended the girl smiled, shot one last glance at her elder sisters, and then clinked on the rosary. The group watched as the vampire shifted back into her outer self, her silver hair turning pink while the eyes shifted back to emerald green. She collapsed into the boy's arms as her power resealed, the group looking at them with calm smiles.

"Why does she still use that seal?" Akua asked curiously.

"Yeah, she's not attending a human school anymore," Kahlua said.

"Because both sides of her are my big sister. They're both his mate as well," Kokoa said proudly. The group glanced to her as she watched her sister slowly wake up, everybody looking at her with a bit of wonder as now the redhead was not only proud to call the outer shell of Moka her sister, but would be the first to admit it.

"She's right; they're both sides of the same coin. You can't have one without the other, right buddy?" Rason said with a smile at his friend. The group blinked then sighed as Tsukune stood there with a weak smile while Moka was latched onto his neck.

"Really Moka? You couldn't have waited a bit first?" Kurumu asked shaking her head. After Moka had her fill of the tasty blood she loved she jumped back with a bright smile.

"Thank you Tsukune, it was delicious," she said with a happy expression. Tsukune chuckled weakly as he held his neck, looking at his girlfriend a bit amusedly and with loving eyes. Moka giggled then glanced to her two older sisters. Her happy demeanor was replaced with discontent almost instantly as she held her hands at her hips.

"Um…" Akua said with a weak smile.

"Hi… again…" Kahlua said nervously. Moka narrowed her eyes at them then walked over to her mate. She knew what had happened during Fairy Tale and their visit to father, the girl watching the whole scene play out from start to finish.

"Let's go Tsukune," she said as she latched onto his arm, looking down with closed eyes. Tsukune nodded then looked over to see a guard from the headmaster walking towards them from inside the academy. He was dressed in the usual outfit for the man himself, with a black robe and shoes with a sword sheathed at his hip.

"Mr. Aono, the headmaster needs to speak to you. He says it's very important," the man said in a professional tone.

"Can't imagine that guy ever just wanting to say hi," Rason said dryly.

"What's wrong now?" Tsukune asked tiredly.

"He claims Ms. Tojo has called him from the human world and needs to speak to you at once," the man said with a focused expression. The group looked to each other then back to the guard.

"Ruby? Where is she? Is Luna with her, are they ok?" Yukari asked worriedly.

"Please come this way," the man said walking back. The group followed after as he led them into the school. They walked down the hallways towards the headmaster's office, the guard opening the door for them and motioning them in. The group walked in as the man was seated at his desk.

"Ah, Mr. Aono, I do believe this call is for you," the man said as he motioned towards a phone that was sitting on the front of his desk. Tsukune looked at him curiously as he walked over and picked it up.

"Um, hello?" he said slowly. He jerked back as a woman started screaming into the headset. The group watched as he regained himself and looked to them with bewilderment as he struggled to comprehend what he was hearing.

"Ruby? Hang on, slow down, I can't… what? I don't understand… what? Please Ruby, calm down and start over," he said franticly. He listened closely as the group eyed him curiously.

"What's she saying Tsukune?" Yukari asked curiously.

"Is Luna with her? Are they alright?" Kurumu asked worriedly.

The group just watched as he stood there in silence. After a long pause he blinked then looked at Moka with wide eyes.

"Ruby… can you… repeat that?" he said slowly.

"I said, me and Luna are ok, I mean I think we are, but still. We're in the human world somehow… and… well, we're at your home," Ruby said into the phone.

"You're… at my home?" Tsukune said nervously. The group stared at him with surprise as he looked down.

"Yes, but that's not all. We're not alone here Tsukune," Ruby said worriedly.

After a few more moments Tsukune looked to Rason with fright.

"What… who's there with you?" he said nervously. Rason watched him cautiously as Tsukune looked down with wide eyes.

"That can't be true Ruby, she's dead," he said shaking his head.

"What are they doing at your home?" Kurumu asked puzzled.

"How did they get there?" Mizore asked curiously.

"Who… who else is there Tsukune?" Rason asked worriedly. Tsukune looked to the group with a pale expression.

"She says… Falla," he said weakly. The group looked at him with wide eyes as he glanced to the phone next to his ear.

"Ruby, that can't be true. Luna killed her long ago, she can't… what? You were where? But… how? That doesn't make sense, how could… SHE'S WITH KYOUKO?" he cried out. The group watched him with surprise as he grabbed his hair with his other hand.

"You let that girl leave with my cousin? What the hell is wrong with you Ruby? Wha… where's my mom at anyway? …she's watching over Luna alone? What the HELL is wrong with you? Are you crazy?" he cried out in disbelief. The headmaster just tilted his head curiously while Tsukune was pacing back and forth.

"You let Falla leave with my cousin to who knows where while you leave Luna alone with my mom? Why?" he cried out in despair. He blinked then looked down with a blank stare.

"So you could call me…" he said dryly. The group blinked and looked at him with bewilderment as the headmaster chuckled. Tsukune growled and shook his head.

"Never mind! We're coming Ruby, just… keep them safe! …I don't know what you're supposed to do without a wand, just think of something!" he shouted out. He hung up the phone and shook his head with frustration.

"Falla? She's with your cousin?" Kurumu cried out with shock.

"How can that be? She's dead," Moka said shaking her head.

"How can she be alive? And how did they get out there in the human world anyway?" Rason said confusedly. Tsukune growled then looked to the headmaster.

"We need a bus out to my home. Now," he said sternly. The man chuckled and shrugged.

"The only bus that was nearby is out by the bus stop now in pieces. I'm afraid the others haven't returned yet with the students they were sent to pick up," he said simply. Tsukune yelled out with anger, his aura flaring up around him as his seal rattled around. The group looked at him with a bit of worry as he glared at the headmaster.

"Dammit, there are two chronoflies at my mother's home, and either one could cause all hell to break loose. I need a ride out there now!" he shouted out.

"Then let's go," Dark said simply. Tsukune blinked and looked back to Dark, the demon having his arms crossed before him.

"Ok, how did he read his lips that time if Tsukune was facing way from him?" Kahlua asked puzzled.

"I heard him over my music, but not the point. I have a ride Tsukune, just point me in the right direction," Dark said calmly. Tsukune looked to him and nodded.

"Right, let's go. The rest of you head out when another bus arrives. We'll try to sort this out," he said walking over to the demon.

"Wait a minute buddy, if Falla really is back then what are you two going to do? She annihilated an entire kingdom, what can you do against her?" Rason asked worriedly. Tsukune growled and glanced to him.

"Whatever I can Rason, whatever I can," he said sternly. The boy and demon ran out as the group watched them go.

"Tsukune…" Moka said worriedly. Mizore watched her demon run off with worried eyes as well.

"Oh my, I hope his mom and cousin are ok," Yukari said worriedly.

"With Luna's mind unstable and her sister being there, that human city is in grave danger," Ahakon said shaking his head.

"How long until the buses get here?" Kokoa asked looking to the headmaster.

"Likely not until this evening," he said simply.

"This evening? We can't wait that long," Gin said shaking his head.

"We can fly out there, but… how far is it?" Rason asked.

"It's quite a trip from here, I don't know if my wings can get me there in one go," Kurumu said worriedly.

"She's right; it's too far to fly on your wings. We need transportation," Moka said shaking her head.

"Well the only bus we have is in pieces, and Dark and Tsukune are taking the only other ride out of here. What can we do?" Gin asked worriedly.

"I'm not sure, but we'd better think of something. It's only my first day as his servant and I'd rather he didn't die before nightfall," Akua said simply.

"Yeah, we still need to be good for him here. We can't do that if he's dead," Kahlua whined.

"So glad you're concerned for his safety," Kokoa said flatly while Moka looked down with worry. They had no way of getting there quickly, and with both Luna's unstable mind and the strange return of her dark sister the humans in that city could be in for a very rough day.


Ruby was walking back into the living room at Mrs. Aono's residence, having just spoken to Tsukune regarding their current problem. As she went back to check on Luna she had one prominent thought at the moment.

'Yeah, Tsukune's definitely going to kill me…'

She walked back in and saw Mrs. Aono kneeling beside the sleeping chronofly, the witch then walking over and doing the same.

"Ok, everything is alright. Your son should be on his way to pick us up soon," Ruby said with a smile. She glanced towards the doorway with a nervous expression.

'Great, how can I keep an eye on Luna and go after Falla at the same time?'

"Oh how nice, it'll be great to see him again. I haven't heard from Tsukune in a while and was wondering how school was treating him," the woman said with a smile. Ruby smiled at her a bit amusedly.

'If only you knew what your son has been up to these past couple of weeks.'

"Well I do know he's been keeping on top of things, no matter how difficult they get. He doesn't let anything get him down, or his friends. Your son is quite amazing Mrs. Aono," Ruby said politely.

"I had hoped things would get better for him. Tell me my dear, are you in his classes as well?" the woman asked curiously.

"Me? No, I work for the headmaster at the academy. But I am fortunate enough to be friends with your son," Ruby said looking down with a slight smile.

"I see. I had noticed that he did have quite a few girls chasing after him last time he was here, I wasn't sure if you were one of them," the woman said with a slight laugh. Ruby chuckled a bit and shook her head.

"No. I did try for a time, but, he made his choice. Now we're just friends," Ruby said gently.

"Oh? So my Tsukune has an actual girlfriend now? Which one did he pick?" the woman asked curiously with a smile. Ruby smiled at her then glanced to the door.

"I'm sure he'll be eager to tell you himself Mrs. Aono. I'll leave that to him," she said simply. The woman nodded and looked down to the sleeping girl. Luna groaned a bit and stirred slightly while lying on the comforter.

"The poor dear. I hope she'll be ok soon," Mrs. Aono said gently. Ruby nodded slowly then looked behind the woman. She jumped a bit as a searing rift formed briefly behind Mrs. Aono, the tear glowing red and orange before vanishing. Ruby looked back to Luna with a nervous expression.

'Oh no no no! Not here Luna! Not here, you need to wake up!'

"Um… maybe a warm washcloth might help her head rest," Ruby suggested nervously. The woman looked at her then up thoughtfully.

"Perhaps. I'll also see if we have any medication for headaches. I'm sure we must have something," she said as she got up and walked towards the entryway. A rift tore apart briefly where the woman was just sitting, the witch staring at it with wide eyes. Mrs. Aono stopped, then looked back just as the tear resealed.

"Is she allergic to any medication?" she asked curiously. Ruby blinked then looked down to the sleeping girl.

"Trust me, I think her stomach can handle anything," she said with a nod. Mrs. Aono looked at her curiously then nodded. She walked out of the room as another rift seared through the air before vanishing. Ruby watched the woman leave then shook Luna with fright.

"Luna? Wake up! Wake up, you're doing it again!" she said in a frantic yet hushed tone. Luna groaned quietly as she was shaken, still out cold. Ruby looked around worriedly as Luna continued to sleep.

'If she tears this place apart with her magic it's all over.'

"Luna, please, you have to focus. Wake up!" Ruby said with concern. She laid the girl back down quickly as Mrs. Aono walked back in with a bowl of water and a damp washcloth. She sat down next to the sleeping girl again, gently soaked the cloth, and placed it over Luna's forehead.

"I hope that helps. I also got some pills she can take when she wakes up, hopefully they'll help with the pain," she said as she set a bottle of medication down next to the bowl. Ruby nodded and looked to her friend with worry.

"I hope so too," she said with concern.

"So tell me, are these two girls students at Yokai Academy as well?" the woman asked curiously.

"Oh, well… Luna is. Falla is… visiting from… elsewhere," Ruby said nervously.

"I see, well that's nice. Her sister did seem a bit angry about something, is everything ok with her?" Mrs. Aono asked worriedly.

"Yeah, she and her sister… just don't see eye to eye," Ruby said looking down at the sleeping chronofly.

"That's a shame. Sisters shouldn't fight like that," the woman said looking back down. Another tear ripped apart behind the woman briefly, the witch looking to it nervously then back down to Luna.

"My my, Tsukune always does seem to attract the most interesting friends," the woman said with a soft smile. Ruby smiled slightly and nodded.

"I'd have to agree," she said softly. She blinked then glanced to her side as another rift seared across the air briefly. She looked back to Luna with fear.

'This isn't going to end well…'

Luna groaned softly and slowly opened her eyes. The two women smiled in relief as the girl blinked a few times.

"Wha… what happened…" she said as she slowly sat up. She held her head as the pain started to come back.

"Don't push yourself dear, here, have some medicine for your head. It should help soothe the pain," Mrs. Aono said getting two pills from the bottle. Luna wearily looked at them and then to the woman.

"It's alright dear, go ahead," she said with a kind smile. Luna nodded in a daze then took the two pills. Ruby looked around nervously as Luna cringed a bit with her headache, not seeing any other rifts or tears forming just yet. The chronofly slowly looked around then quickly turned to Ruby.

"Falla! Where… where is she?" she said worriedly.

"Um… well…" Ruby said with a weak smile.

"Oh, your sister left with my niece to go shopping. They were going to get her some new clothes," Mrs. Aono said happily. Luna looked to her with shock then to Ruby.

"She's… gone? You let her go?" she cried out. Ruby held up her hands defensively as Luna looked at her with disbelief.

"Hey, Kyouko dragged her out of here on her own. Besides, I had to make sure you would be alright," she said quickly.

"It's quite alright Luna; Kyouko will take good care of her while they're out. I doubt she'll be running her over with a bike again today," Mrs. Aono said with a small laugh. Luna looked at her with worry then down as she held her head, her world still spinning slightly.

"Just rest for now Luna, you shouldn't push yourself with… your condition," Ruby said cautiously. Luna glanced to her as Ruby nodded inquisitively. The girl blinked then glanced to Mrs. Aono.

"She's right dear. Just rest for now, I'm sure they'll be back soon," the woman said kindly. She got up and started walking back towards the hallway.

"Now, how about I make us some tea while we wait? We can get to know each other better in the meantime," she said gently before she walked out. Luna then turned to Ruby with disbelief.

"You let her go? Into the human world? With that girl?" she asked shaking her head.

"Hey, I couldn't stop her, and I had to keep an eye on you too. Your magic was going out of control again in your sleep, you might have leveled this place along with Tsukune's mom," Ruby said defensively. Luna looked at her with worry then down.

"It was?" she asked as she held her head and cringed again.

"Take some more of those pills, we need to keep your headache down as much as possible," Ruby said grabbing the bottle. Luna glanced to it then jumped a bit.

"Oh no…" she said nervously. Ruby looked at her curiously as she undid the cap to the bottle.

"What is it?" she asked. Luna shook her head and looked at the bottle with worried eyes.

"Not that stuff. I've had that before when I lived with my human parents," she said as she looked down.

"You have? Does it work?" Ruby asked looking at the bottle curiously.

"Yeah… but…" Luna said worriedly.


"Ok, explain again to me why I'm trying on these ridiculous outfits?" Falla growled with frustration. She was inside a small dressing room looking at a selection of clothing picked out by Kyouko.

"C'mon, you'll look great. Give them a try," Kyouko called out from out in the waiting room. They were inside a clothing store with several dressing rooms around a small waiting area. Falla growled as she looked at the clothing and then crossed her arms in discontent.

"Why should I?" she said stubbornly.

"Because the dress you were wearing looks like it was dragged through the garbage dump and buried underground for months. Just try them out," Kyouko said with an amused smile. Falla growled and rolled her eye. After a while the door to the dressing room opened, with Kyouko looking in with amazement.

"Wow, you look great!" she said enthusiastically. Falla growled with frustration and looked down. She was wearing white sneakers, a black and red striped miniskirt, a white t-shirt with a short sleeve red shirt over it that was unzipped down the middle.

"This… is what you humans consider elegant?" Falla asked in disbelief.

"Elegant? More like hot. You look great with that look," Kyouko said walking over and turning Falla towards a full sized mirror on the wall. The chronofly examined herself then crossed her arms with discontent, looking away with a scoff.

"Fine. I have new clothing, can we go now?" she asked impatiently. She was grabbed by the arm and dragged away by Kyouko, the human having a happy smile on her face.

"C'mon, let's check out what else is here," she said energetically. She dragged the struggling and swearing chronofly through the department, with the other girl's shoes screeching as she struggled to stop her overzealous companion. Kyouko took her to the front counter, paid for the clothing, and then proceeded to drag the stubborn girl out and back into the mall. They were inside a large indoor mall that was two stories tall. It was set in a giant loop with shops and restaurants on the outer edges with a large court in the middle on the ground floor. The second floor, which they were on, had a railing all the way around the open atrium as it overlooked the grand building. The roof was a series of skylights that let the daylight in as the mall was bustling with other humans going about their lives.

"Why must you keep dragging me everywhere? Let me go this instant, I demand it!" Falla yelled as Kyouko pulled her by the arm. They stopped as the smiling girl looked curiously at one of the stores.

"Hey, let's check this place out. I'm sure you'll love it," she said as she dragged the girl in, the human paying no mind to Falla's colorful comments about her idea.

Inside the store that sold sports apparel the two girls were looking around, with one's eyes being bright while the other's eye was dull and slightly glaring.

"And what, if I may ask, are we looking for in here?" Falla said shaking her head.

"Don't you ever go shopping Falla? You just look and see if anything catches your eye. Like, here, how about this?" Kyouko said grabbing a baseball cap and putting on the girl's head. Kyouko turned it on its side and stepped back to examine the chronofly's new look.

"Haha, well, maybe that isn't for you, but still," Kyouko mused with a smirk. Falla growled as she took the hat off and threw it on the ground.

"I've had quite enough of all this, take me back to my sister at once," she demanded. Kyouko laughed a bit then looked around curiously. She grabbed a signed baseball bat and looked at it curiously.

"Don't you ever want to just hang around and relax Falla? You seem too uptight," she said playfully as she examined the bat.

"Give me that bat and I'll see if I can unwind a bit," Falla said flatly with a dull stare. Kyouko giggled and set the bat back down.

"How come you're in such a bad mood always? I haven't seen you smile once yet," she asked curiously.

"You ran me over with your bike, kidnapped me to this accursed place, made me wear this despicable outfit, and now you are dragging me around with the commoners. What do I have to smile about?" Falla asked with a growl.

"Commoners? What, are you some sort of princess or something?" Kyouko asked with an eager smile. Falla raised an eyebrow at the girl.

"Queen actually," she said sternly. Kyouko looked at her with awe at that comment.

"Wow, you're a real queen? Really?" she asked with a big smile. Falla smiled arrogantly and nodded.

"Yes, I was destined to be queen of my race. Before-" she started before Kyouko got closer with a big smile on her face.

"Wow, a real queen, that's so cool!" she said energetically. Falla blinked then smiled amusedly at the girl.

"Well, yes. It is 'cool'," she said arrogantly.

"So you were going to be a queen? Queen of what? The monster world?" Kyouko asked curiously. Falla shook her head and glanced away.

"No, just the queen of our kingdom, of our race," she said simply.

"Wow, and… what are you? I mean, what kind of monster are you and your sister?" Kyouko asked curiously. She then glanced around then back to Falla, the two girls being in the middle of a busy store in the human world.

"Um, on second thought, maybe we should have this discussion elsewhere," she said with a weak smile.

"I agree, so let's go back then," Falla said with narrowed glance at her.

"C'mon, I still need to treat you out after I hurt you so badly. I know, let's go get something to eat, you must be hungry by now right?" Kyouko asked with a smile. Falla sighed and looked away.

"I could use something to eat I suppose. Very well, you may provide some food and then we'll leave," Falla said arrogantly with her eye closed. She gasped when Kyouko had once again grabbed onto her arm and was pulling her through the mall.

"What is with you? I can walk on my own just fine, hey, let go already!" Falla barked out as she was dragged through the sea of people.

Kyouko took her to a fast food restaurant on the ground level, the two girls getting a tray with fried fish, rice, dipping sauce, and cans of soda. Falla looked at the meal curiously as they walked over into the middle court and sat at a table, the two sitting alone as the court was mostly empty.

"What is this?" she asked as she held the can of soda up.

"It's soda, you never had it before?" Kyouko asked curiously with a smile. Falla examined it then looked at the girl with a blank stare. After a moment she bit off the top of the can, chewing off the metal as some soda spilled out onto her tray. Kyouko jumped a bit and watched as the girl casually ate the bits of tin with the soda dripping onto the table.

"It's ok… I guess," Falla said setting the can back down with a giant bite mark on it's top.

"Um… you're supposed to just open the can… and drink the soda," Kyouko said weakly. She then jumped a bit as Falla took out her chopsticks, and then proceeded to eat them.

"What are you doing?" Kyouko asked with wide eyes. Falla just looked at her with a blank expression.

"I'm eating, what does it look like?" she said flatly.

"You're eating… the chopsticks though," Kyouko said shakily pointing to the bits of wood that remained in Falla's hand.

"Something wrong with that?" Falla asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Well, it's just… the food on your tray would be… tastier," Kyouko said with a weak smile. Falla looked at her puzzled then to the fish and rice. She shrugged and grabbed a roll of fish, the girl then casually eating it.

"Whatever," Falla said as she looked around bored.

"Wow, doesn't that hurt eating the can like that?" Kyouko said looking at the can with the missing top.

"Why would it?" Falla asked plainly.

"Well, it's… metal. I guess monsters don't eat normal human food, I should have guessed," Kyouko said with a small laugh. Falla just looked at her for a moment before she took another fish roll and ate it.

"Your food is all the same to me. Besides, our race can eat anything," she said plainly. Kyouko looked at her with wonder.

"Anything?" she asked surprised. Falla just nodded as she grabbed the soda can and ate more off the top, with some soda spilling onto the floor. Kyouko just watched in amazement as the girl casually chewed the bits of metal with a bored expression. Her teeth were munching on the metal while her cheeks didn't bleed or get cut in the slightest.

"Wow. That's… really different," Kyouko said nervously. Falla just shrugged and glanced back to her, seeing the human girl just smiling at her.

"What are you staring at?" she asked cautiously. Kyouko giggled and smiled at her.

"It's just different, having a monster for a friend," she said as she looked down to her meal. Falla looked at her with a dull stare.

"Friend?" she asked flatly. Kyouko nodded as she started to eat as well.

"Yeah, I mean, Tsukune has all these friends who are monsters. Truth is, when I found out he had such friends I was a little scared at first," she said softly. Falla raised an eyebrow at the girl.

"Excuse me, but we are not-"

"But then I got to know them, and they're all really great friends to have. It's hard to believe it, but they're actually far kinder than most humans I know," she said gently. Falla looked at the girl puzzled then shook her head.

"You don't listen at all do you? I said, we're not-"

"Now I have a friend like that too, only she's a queen of her race. It's just so wild really; I didn't think I would be this lucky. I'm kinda glad I did run into you Falla," Kyouko said with a smile at her. Falla blinked and the merely tilted her head with a dull expression.

"You're a strange one Kyouko," she said flatly before she ate more of the soda can. Kyouko just watched her munch the metal with wonder then smirked softly at her. The two finished their meals and started to get up.

"Hey, how about some ice cream before we go?" Kyouko asked curiously. Falla blinked and looked at her funny.

"Ice cream?" she asked puzzled.

Five minutes later the two girls were walking out of the mall with ice cream in their hands. Falla looked at it curiously as she held the cone in her hand, the girl's eye examining the strange human food.

"You never had ice cream either? That's so weird too," Kyouko said with a giggle as she licked hers. Falla glanced to her then to the treat. She opened her mouth to take a big bite out of it.

"Ah, I wouldn't do that," Kyouko warned. Falla looked at her cautiously as the girl shook her head.

"You'll get a headache if you eat it too fast; try just taking small bites or licks. Savor it," she said kindly. Falla looked at her for a moment longer then back to the treat. Slowly she took a small lick of the frozen treat, then blinked and glanced away.

"It's alright," she said softly.

"Oh c'mon, you like it. I can tell," Kyouko said with a laugh. Falla growled and looked ahead again.

"Why are you so uptight anyway? What's eating you?" Kyouko asked curiously.

"I'm fine. Let's just get back already, I still need to have a little talk with my sister," Falla said sternly.

"You really seem on edge. What's wrong?" Kyouko asked gently. Falla glanced to her with a dull stare.

"It's none of your concern," she said with a bite.

"Sure it is, I'm your friend. You can talk to me if you want; I'm a pretty good listener. I've even helped Tsukune with his girl problems before," Kyouko said with a smile.

"You are a terrible listener, that much I know is for certain," Falla said flatly. Kyouko nudged her playfully.

"C'mon, what's up with you and your sister?" she asked curiously. Falla growled then looked forward.

"I said it's none of your concern girl. Enough already," Falla said with a bit of anger. Kyouko shook her head and looked up at the sky. Sunlight was starting to fade as the day was turning into the evening.

"You know for a queen, you have rather poor people skills," she said simply.

"People skills?" Falla said with a raised eyebrow. Kyouko nodded and glanced to her.

"Yeah, you know. Actually talking to the people you rule over. You don't seem too caring of others," she said with concern. Falla rolled her eye and looked away.

"You know nothing about ruling girl. Don't lecture me on how to be queen. I've been studying how to all my life, from diplomacy, to war, to economics, to all aspects of my throne that is rightfully mine. I know how to rule those under me properly," Falla said with a stern expression.

"Really? So far today you've been having a bad attitude everywhere we went. You are reluctant to talk or even try new things, and you keep to yourself so much," Kyouko said softly.

"Then why do you keep dragging me around everywhere?" Falla asked flatly. Kyouko smiled at her then looked down

"I don't know, you just seem like you could be a good friend if you tried. You don't strike me as a bad person," she said softly. Falla glanced to her as the girl looked forward with a calm gaze.

"You seem like a cool friend to have. I can tell you liked the clothing, the food as well. You had fun today, just like I knew you would," she said confidently.

"No I didn't," Falla said flatly.

"Yeah you did," Kyouko said with a giggle.

"No, I didn't," Falla said sternly.

"Yes you did," Kyouko said with a playful tone.

"Dammit, no I didn't!" Falla barked back. Kyouko giggled then looked at the girl curiously.

"What is it now?" Falla said shaking her head tiredly.

"It's just… I'm curious. What kind of monster are you?" Kyouko asked in wonder. Falla just looked at her then forward again.

"Does it matter?" she said without a care. Kyouko jumped in front of her and looked at the girl with a curious smile.

"Please? Can you show me?" she asked kindly. Falla just stared back at the girl with no reaction.

"C'mon, nobody's around," Kyouko said looking around. They had stopped in the back alleyway between a few houses, the road having only a few trashcans on it with no people seen anywhere. Kyouko looked back to Falla with a pleading smile.

"Please friend?" she asked sweetly. Falla just looked at her for a moment then sighed.

"Fine. But then we go back in silence," she said dryly. Kyouko nodded eagerly as she kept her eyes on the girl. Falla rolled her eye then looked at the girl with a blank expression. From behind her the girl's darker colored butterfly wings extended out. Kyouko looked at them with wonder as Falla glanced back to them, the four sections fluttering gently behind her.

"Wow…" Kyouko breathed out. Falla looked to her as the girl stared at the wings with awe.

"There. Happy?" Falla said with a bit of a tired sigh.

"They're so beautiful," Kyouko said with a warm smile, the girl's eyes locked onto the butterfly wings behind the chronofly. Falla glanced back to them with a dull expression.

"Thank you," she said flatly.

"Does your sister have the same wings?" Kyouko asked curiously.

"No, hers are of different colors," Falla said simply.

"Well yours are great. They look so beautiful on you," Kyouko said kindly. Falla retracted them back and then just looked back to the girl.

"Can we go now?" Falla said flatly. Kyouko nodded and they continued walking down the alleyway. During the walk Falla continued to eat her ice cream in silence while Kyouko kept glancing to her with a smile on her face.

"So are you after my cousin as well?" Kyouko asked with a sly smile. Falla just glanced to her.

"First off, the deal was we walk back in silence. Secondly, why would I want your cousin?" she asked flatly. Kyouko shrugged as she looked up.

"I was just wondering, last time he was here he had a whole group of them chasing him. Heck, some of them were half naked when doing so. I know he's got a thing for Moka, one of his friends, but he's so wishy washy on deciding. It's kinda cute and sad at the same time, you know?" Kyouko said with a calm smile.

"This is far from silence," Falla muttered as she threw her cone away.

"I don't know how he does it. When he went to school here in the human world he couldn't get a date to save his life. Now, he's got a group of girls following him around everywhere he goes. That's my cousin I guess, always surprising," Kyouko said with a laugh.

"Starting to wish we had gotten that bat after all," Falla said flatly.

The two girls walked down the alleyway a bit before two larger men stepped out in front of them. They were wearing jeans, shirts, and black jackets as they eyed the two girls with grins.

"Hey there pretty things, where you off to all alone?" one of them said sweetly. Falla looked at them with a bored expression while Kyouko glanced behind them worriedly. Two more thugs were walking up from behind.

"We're just heading home. If you'll excuse us," Kyouko said a bit fearfully. The two in front of them chuckled as they looked at them with cold smiles.

"Allow us to escort you, these streets can be a bit dangerous for a couple of little things like you," one of them said with a smirk.

"Get out of our way already," Falla said with a bite.

WHACK! WHACK!

The two girls dropped forward out cold from the hits to their heads, the guys behind them chuckling as all four of them looked down at the unconscious girls.


Falla's eye slowly opened, the girl groaning quietly from a headache. She blinked a few times then glanced around. She was in some rundown apartment, the girl having her arms tied in front of her and her legs bound together as well. She was sitting on an old chair in the corner, the large living room of the place looking disheveled and falling apart. There was an old TV that was tuned to static, a window that showed the little amount of sunlight still in the sky, a worn red carpet on the ground which was far from clean, and an open doorway to the side that led out into the hall.

She glanced over and saw the four thugs standing near a low table, the men chuckling as whimpers were heard. Falla peered over and saw what they were looking at. On the table was Kyouko, the girl having her arms tied above her head and her legs being tied to a leg of the table each, her body being positioned for the men while she looked up fearfully at them. Her mouth had a rag tied around it to keep her quiet as she trembled a bit.

"Now then, let's take good care of our little friend, shall we boys?" one of the men said as he kneeled down and rubbed her leg. She cried out into her gag as the men chuckled. Falla looked to her hands, the girl then simply chewing off the ropes with little problem. She undid her leg ties and then stood up.

"Haha, look at her shake. I think she's nervous boss," one of the thugs said as the man kept feeling around her leg and thigh. Kyouko cried out as she stared at the men with fear. She shook her head as the man started to feel up towards her skirt. Falla looked at them with a dull glare then glanced to the doorway. She walked over to it and stopped, staring out into the hall as Kyouko's muffled cries were barely heard over the men laughing.

"She looks so scared. We'd better make her feel more loved boys," the leader said as he felt under her skirt. She cried out and shook her head wildly as another man held her hands down. He smiled at her with a toothy grin as she started to cry.

"Alright, let's get started, shall we sweetie?" the leader said as he stood up and started unbuttoning his pants. Kyouko stared at him with wide eyes of fright while the other gang members laughed and eyed her with lustful eyes.

CRACK!

Blood shot out of the leader's nose as he dropped to the ground on his knees, the group looking at him with surprise. Blood leaked down from his hair over his face as he wavered, the man then falling off to the side. All eyes turned to see a girl standing there with a metal bat in her hands, the girl tapping it into her palm with a dull glare in her red eye.

"I think I need to unwind a bit," Falla said coldly as her wings slowly extended out from behind her. The three men stared at her with wide eyes while Kyouko watched with amazement. The butterfly girl flew towards one of the men and sent a powerful swing towards his head, the man's skull being cracked as he was sent flying back. She then swung around and knocked another thug back into a tumble, the man falling back and knocking the TV down. The fourth thug backed up towards the window as Kyouko looked at Falla with awe. Falla then leapt to the side and swung down with the bat, crushing in the skull of the thug by the TV. The girl then flung her bat towards the fourth man, the thug catching it in the face and staggering back. Falla flew towards him and pushed him towards the window, the man gripping the sides of the window at the last second. He was about four stories above the hard sidewalk below as Falla slowly walked up to him.

"Wha… what are you?" the man said with fear.

"Your queen, you lowly worm," she hissed before she kicked the man out the window. He fell down with a scream before slamming into the ground with a sickening crunch. Falla looked back to Kyouko who was looking at her with wonder still.

"How's that for 'people skills'?" Falla asked with a small smirk. Kyouko laughed nervously as the girl walked up to her. She undid the girl's binds with a dull expression.

"Falla… thank you…" Kyouko said softly.

"Whatever. Just get me back to my sister," Falla said looking away quickly. From the doorway a dozen other men ran in and looked around with anger.

"What the hell? Get those two brats!" one yelled out. Kyouko looked at them with worry as Falla grunted with annoyance.

"Kyouko, hold your breath," Falla said simply as she held Kyouko close. The girl looked at her puzzled then took a deep breath of air. The thugs advanced on them as Falla's wings started to flutter quickly. Slowly a sparkly dust started to wisp from behind her and float around the room. Kyouko watched the dust with wonder as the specs flew about. The gang members walked towards them then stopped, their expressions turning to fear as the specs flew past them. Kyouko watched as they started to tremble and back up.

"Get away…" one breathed out.

"What the hell… get away from me!" another yelled as the men started to scream in horror. Some ran back out the doorway, others leapt out of the window. Others ran into each other and the walls, the frightened men then rolling around screaming. Falla calmly walked Kyouko through the room of screaming thugs and then down the stairs.

"What was that?" Kyouko asked with amazement as they walked outside. They watched as another two thugs slammed into the ground from above, their bodies cracking the ground nearby where the others were lying still with pools of blood forming around them.

"Just a talent of mine. Now let's go," Falla said tiredly as they walked off. Kyouko looked back to the building with wonder then at Falla.

"That was incredible, you saved me!" she cheered. Falla glanced to her then forward again.

"I merely got revenge for them hitting me," she said stubbornly. Kyouko giggled and smiled at her companion.

"Boy did you," she said with wonder. The two walked down the alleyway as the sky started to turn darker with the passing day.


Under the darkened sky a motorcycle was traveling at high speed through the human city. On it were two boys, both racing as fast as they could to their friends. Dark was driving the cycle with his usual blank expression while he listened to his music. Behind him Tsukune was holding on for dear life as the demon whizzed through traffic and the streets without slowing down. What was worse was with his music playing, all the frightened boy's pleas to slow down went unheard. They raced through the town and then came to a stop at a crossroads. Dark glanced back as Tsukune tried to regain himself, the boy's expression still frozen in shock as his heart was pounding.

"Which way from here?" Dark asked calmly. Tsukune shakily pointed to the left without looking, his gaze staring off into space as his life kept flashing before his eyes. Dark merely nodded before the cycle tires screeched and they took off at high speed again. Tsukune slowly looked to Dark with wide eyes.

'How does Mizore stay calm when riding with him?'

They drove up to a residential street and the demon slowed down finally. Tsukune shook his head to regain himself then looked ahead. He pointed towards a home they were approaching, the demon nodding then driving up to it. Dark parked the cycle in the driveway and the two boys then ran towards the door.

"C'mon, we have to find Ruby and Luna fast," Tsukune called back to Dark. They raced in and ran into the living room in the side of the house.

"Hey, we're here! Are you guys alri-" Tsukune started before they stopped in their tracks. They just blinked as looked at the sight before them, with Tsukune's expression of stunned surprise while Dark merely raised an eyebrow.

"Well, there they are," Dark said simply as they stared at the sight. Mrs. Aono was staring with a bit of fear while sitting at the table with a cup of tea, Ruby was also doing the same with wide eyes, and Luna was walking around with a blissful smile on her face in the middle of the room, bouncing around and giggling wildly.

"Oh, Tsukune. You're back," Mrs. Aono said looking over in surprise to the two boys.

"Thank god you're here, she's-" Ruby said before the butterfly girl ran over and clung to Tsukune with a deep innocent gaze.

"Tsukuneeeee, there you are," she said in a giddy voice. Tsukune and Dark just watched her as she laughed softly then looked at Tsukune with a weary expression.

"I'm SOOO glad you're here. Can you please knock me up Tsukune? Rason won't do it because he has that stupid succubus," she said with a playful pout. Everybody jumped from that as Tsukune stared wide eyed at the girl.

"WHAT?" he cried out.

"Oh my, Tsukune! Are you still acting so dirty at school? I thought you had a girlfriend now!" Mrs. Aono said with surprise.

"He does, she's just out of her mind," Ruby said in disbelief. Luna giggled and looked to Dark.

"You can join in too if you want you naughty boy youuuu," she said with a loopy head. Dark just looked at her with his same expression while everybody stared at Luna with shock.

"What? What the heck is wrong with you Luna?" Tsukune cried out as he tried to pry the girl off of him. Luna giggled and looked at him with a coy smile.

"What? You mean you two don't want to impregnate me? Please?" she asked playfully before she started dancing around the room in a daze. Tsukune stared at the girl with shock while Mrs. Aono held back her tears.

"My baby is still a sex crazed fiend, oh why oh why?" she cried out.

"Mom, I swear I'm not like that, honest!" Tsukune said with urgency. Luna giggled and dropped onto the couch with a blissful smile on her face.

"Hey Ruby… you were right… those pills were SOOOO good," she said before she passed out and dropped to the ground. Ruby blinked then smiled weakly at the group.

"Pills?" Dark asked with a raised eyebrow.

"They were for her headache. But…" Ruby said worriedly.

"Oh no, was she allergic to them?" Mrs. Aono asked with concern. Ruby shook her head and looked down to the sleeping girl.

"No. But she did mention they can make her a bit… crazy," she said weakly.

"A bit?" Dark asked flatly. Tsukune looked around worriedly.

"Where's Kyouko?" he asked fearfully.

"Oh, she's still out with Falla. They should be back soon I hope. It's so good to see you again Tsukune, how have you been? So, you do have a girlfriend now, right?" Mrs. Aono asked worriedly. Tsukune blinked then looked to her with a small smile.

"Well yes, I do. But before we get into that we need to-" he started before Luna leapt into his arms and laughed wildly, the boy holding her bridal style as she giggled with a dazed look in her eye.

"C'mon Tsukune… fuck me," she said in a dirty voice. Tsukune looked at her with shock then to Ruby.

"How… many of those pills did she take?" he asked nervously. Ruby only held up two fingers then looked at the chronofly with wide eyes. Luna giggled a bit then passed out in his arms.

"Didn't think she could talk like that," Dark said simply. Tsukune walked over to the couch and laid the sleeping girl down on it. Ruby walked over and smiled at him, the boy glancing to her questioningly.

"Don't worry; your mom didn't see anything too bizarre. Those pills at least stopped her magic from going wild," she whispered to him.

"What is going on here Ruby, how did you all get here? And what's this about Falla being back?" Tsukune asked cautiously.

"Oh, hello there. Are you one of Tsukune's friends too?" Mrs. Aono asked Dark. The boy merely nodded.

"My name is Dark Kuyumaya, ma'am," he said calmly. The woman nodded with a smile.

"That's nice. He usually brings home girls with him, haha. It's nice to meet you Dark," she said politely.

"The pleasure is mine," Dark said with a slight bow. The woman nodded and then looked at him curiously.

"Um, how are you hearing me?" she asked pointing to the earbuds.

"He can read lips mom, but really, we need to find Kyouko before-" Tsukune started before he was pulled back from behind. He wound up sitting on the couch with Luna behind him, the girl having her legs wrapped around his waist as she held him closely. She gazed at him with loving eyes as she held the boy tightly.

"Please… I'm so wet…" she begged. The boy jumped up and struggled to get off the couch as the group just looked at the girl with disbelief.

"Oh my, those pills really did change her," Mrs. Aono said worriedly.

"How long does it last for?" Ruby asked with concern.

"Guess we'll find out," Dark said simply. Tsukune leapt off the couch as Luna stumbled forward, the girl landing on her hands and knees. She giggled wearily and looked up to Dark with a glazed look in her eyes.

"C'mon Dark, ride me like you do your snow woman, make me scream," she purred as she wiggled her rear, the girl then dropping down and falling back asleep. The group just looked at her with wonder as she lay there.

"Well… her headache does appear to be gone," Ruby said with a shrug.

"Snow woman?" Mrs. Aono asked puzzled. Tsukune shook his head and looked at her with a nervous smile.

"It's nothing mom. Really," he said with a weak smile. He looked down to Luna then around worriedly. After a sigh he then slowly picked up the sleeping girl.

"Do you know where Kyouko might have gone mom? We really need to find her soon," Tsukune said while laying the chronofly back down on the couch.

"I'm not sure; they went out shopping for Falla. I'd imagine they would be back soon though. Is something wrong?" Mrs. Aono asked curiously.

Before anybody could answer the front door opened and two girls walked into the house.

"Hey auntie, we're back. Whose bike is that outside?" Kyouko asked as she walked into the living room. She looked at the group and then smiled.

"Hey Tsukie, how ya doing?" she asked as she walked up to her cousin. Tsukune looked at her with wonder as she smiled at him.

"Is that your bike out there? Wow, never thought you'd get one of those things," she said with a laugh.

"No… that's Dark's," he said looking to the demon. Kyouko looked over to the other boy then smiled with a small blush.

"Wow, you made a friend with a boy for once. And a cute one too," she said while eyeing him over. Dark just looked at her for a moment with no reaction then glanced behind him. From the entryway another girl walked in.

"Oh Falla, you're back as well. I see you have some new clothes now. You look wonderful my dear," Mrs. Aono said lovingly. Falla glanced down to her outfit then around at the group.

"Falla?" Tsukune asked carefully while glancing to Ruby.

"Yes… she's… back," Ruby said cautiously. Dark just looked at the new girl carefully as she glanced to her sleeping sister.

"She's still asleep? Really?" she muttered shaking her head.

"Well, she was awake. But some pain medicine we gave her made her a bit… weary," Mrs. Aono said with a weak smile. Tsukune and Dark kept their eyes on the new girl as Ruby glanced to Mrs. Aono.

"Hey auntie, you'll never guess what happened today. Falla saved my life," Kyouko said with a big smile. Everybody looked to her with surprise as Falla looked away.

"Oh my, what?" Mrs. Aono said with worry.

"She saved… your life?" Ruby asked curiously.

"Yeah, some thugs tried to kidnap us and… and do things to us. But she took them all out by herself. She saved my life auntie, it was amazing," Kyouko said looking back to the new girl. Dark and Tsukune looked to each other then to Falla.

"She did?" Tsukune said curiously. The girl sighed then looked back to the group.

"Something wrong with that?" she said with an accusing stare.

"Oh my, are you two ok?" Mrs. Aono asked worriedly.

"I'm fine auntie. We both are, thanks to her," Kyouko said proudly. Falla looked away again as the group just stared at her.

"That's incredible. Thank you Falla, thank you so much for keeping my niece safe," Mrs. Aono said graciously. Falla glanced to her then back away.

"Yeah yeah… just… don't mention it again," she said simply.

"She's the best friend ever auntie, she was so cool," Kyouko said happily.

"Friend? You and her… are friends?" Ruby said with a raised eyebrow. Falla growled then glared over at her while Kyouko nodded.

"Why wouldn't I be? I mean, yes I did run her over with my bike today, but after we got to know each other better we got along great. Right Falla?" Kyouko said looking over to Falla. The chronofly just looked at her with a blank stare then back to the group.

"I'm so glad you two worked that out. How about I go start dinner for us, it'll be great for you all to join us tonight. I'm very curious about what's been going on with you Tsukune, and about this new girlfriend I hear you have," Mrs. Aono said happily as she stood up.

"Hey, we'll help too. C'mon Falla, it'll be fun," Kyouko said running over and grabbing the girl by the arm. She started to drag the struggling chronofly out of the room, giving one last playful smile at Dark, and then vanished down the hall towards the kitchen as Mrs. Aono followed after.

"Hey, why are you always dragging me around? Cut it out!" Falla's voice echoed out from the hall. Tsukune, Dark, and Ruby glanced to each other curiously then back to Luna.

"Ok… what the hell happened here?" Tsukune said confusedly.

"I'm not sure which is stranger; Luna's magic warping us all over the world, Falla coming back from the dead, Luna being high on pain medication, or that Kyouko and Falla seem to becoming friends," Ruby said shaking her head. Luna giggled in her sleep as she stirred slightly on the couch.

"Rason… Tsukune… Dark… give it to me…" she murmured with a slight blush.

"I think that's a bit stranger at this point," Dark said flatly as the other two just stared at Luna with wide eyes.
