Saku walked towards her school.
"Hey!" A male voice shouted behind her. She jumped a little, turning around. She saws a boy with greasy brown hair that was in a ponytail. He had on the school uniform, except his white shirt was red, and his blue jack had been dyed black. His tie was missing from the outfit, and he was wearing jeans. He stomped over to it.
"Wh-what is it? I haven't told anyone." Saku told him. He grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her towards him. Her back hit his chest.
"That's not it. You stood me up last night. You're going to pay. And remember what happens if you call the cops." He told her.
"Let go of her! Please! Let my sister go!" She begged him.
"No way! It's the only way to keep you in check." He muttered. He took a knife out of his pocket, and placed the dull blade against her cheek.
"One of the best things about a dull blade. It hurts more when you cut someone." He threatened.
"No, please don't!" Saku begged.
"Since you said please. I won't cut your cheek." He told her. Saku silently sighed in relief.
"I'll make the cut, less noticeable." He smirked.
"No!" She shouted, but it was too late. He pushed her to the ground, and pulled up her sleeve.
"Your skin is perfect, isn't it?" He muttered, looking at her arm.
"Please! Stop it!" She told him, trying to push him off.
"Shut up!" He told her, slapping her. Saku cried out in pain, and tears ran down her face, as her cut her skin.
"Stop it! It hurts!" She whimpered.
"Of course it does." He told her. He made one final slice, finishing her torture. His grip on her wrist loosened, and she pulled it away from him, holding it to her chest. She curled into a ball, trying to protect her self.
"You're pathetic. You better have my money, and my reward, tonight!" He told her, kicking her stomach. He stalked away, leaving her on the ground. Saku cried, holding her stomach. She looked at her left arm, the one that he had cut up. He had cut the word mine, on her word, all in capital letters. She shook, sitting up; she held her hand close to her chest, standing up. She limped to the school building, and the familiar nurse's office.
~With Ai~
"Hone Onna become the nurse." Ai told her, watching from a tree top. She took out a red, straw doll, dropping her to the ground. The doll, turned into the bone woman, and she was wearing a pair of scrubs, and her black hair was in a messy ponytail. She disappeared, reappearing in the nurse's off. The door opened, revealing Saku.
"Miss Tenami! I need some bandages." She called out. Hone walked up to her.
"I'm sorry, Miss Tenami had to attend to a family matter last night. She's not back yet. I'm her replacement, until she gets back." Hone told her.
"O-Okay." She muttered. She showed Hone her carved arm.
"Oh my! What happened to you?" She asked.
"I got jumped on the way to school." Saku told her.
"Do you know who jumped you?" Hone asked. Saku shook her head. Hone wrapped Saku's arm.
"Does this happen often?" Hone asked the girl. Saku shook her head, denying that it happens.
"Okay. Come back after lunch, and I'll change your bandages." Hone told her. Saku nodded, before standing up, bowing, and leaving. Hone sighed, and leaned on the counter.
"Man, I hope that we can save this girl before it's too late." She muttered. The door opened again, revealing her mistress.
"Ai? What's wrong?" She asked.
"Did she seem jumpy?" Ai asked.
"A little. She was trying to avoid the question of who did it to her. What's weird is the guy has never given her his name." Hone told her. Ai nodded.
"After lunch. Send her to the bathroom to clean her wounds. I'll confront her then." Ai said. Hone nodded.
"Alright, I'll do that." Hone said. Ai nodded and left, heading for her class. She walked to the first year class, still wearing the middle school uniform. When she entered class, Haruhi waved her over.
"Yes." Ai asked.
"We wanted to know what you thought of the host club." Hikaru told her. Ai blinked before looking at the ground, thinking about it.
"I didn't really get the point of it." Ai told them. She walked to her seat, behind them. "But it was interesting to see how you work." She confessed, sitting in her seat.
"You didn't like it?" Kaoru asked. Ai shook her head.
"Did your sister like it?" Haruhi asked her.
"Kikuri liked the cake. She rarely gets any since sugar makes her much more devious. We were chasing after her all night." Ai told them.
"Are you allowed to wear the middle school uniform?" Hikaru asked, pointing to the brown sailor outfit.
"Yes, I am." Ai muttered. The teacher chose that moment to walk in.
"Alright, sit down. We have a full schedule today," She told them.
