Silence.

Everyone turned to the new arrival, a bit surprised. It was girl with short hair with an odd color – it seemed like her hair was made of the northern lights. Her eyes were icy blue and she was glaring daggers at Kise. "… Let her go, you dense person. Can't you see she doesn't like to be touched? I'm so disappointed in you! I thought you knew how to treat a girl!" She pointed furiously at Kise, who looked at her with wide eyes. "Perfect timing." Lia smiled cheekily, proud of her own actions. "Who's she?" Momoi whispered.

"Her name is Galanthus Vanille Seriya. Yelena's childhood friend. One of Lia's stalker friends. I don't know how she found us, but I'm assuming that she's just that great of a stalker." Lilith answered, nodding her head in approval.

"S-She tripped and twisted her foot, so I—" Kise found it too hard to talk since he was bewildered at the girl who talked to him as if he wasn't Kise Ryouta. It was as if he was some creepy old pedophile harassing a young girl. "Put her down! She didn't ask for your help! Just because you're Kise Ryouta, doesn't mean you can go around touching young girls without their permission! Plus, didn't you actually think that maybe she's an elementary student? Just look at her height!" The girl called Galanthus continued scolding him. "You bastard, Gale… I'm smaller than Yelena, you know…" Lia clenched her fists.

Yelena stopped struggling as soon as Galanthus said that. "You didn't have to go that far! Besides you're as small as I am!" Out of nowhere, Yelena jumped out of Kise's arms, surprising Kise. The Kaijo ace had no idea what was going on anymore. "Correction. I'm taller. At least I look more mature." Gale retorted, sticking her tongue out to piss her friends even more. "Besides, why are you even stalking this man?" She pointed at Kise again. Kise looked at her with his mouth hung agape. "They were stalking me?" He asked again.

"No! No, we are not! Ki-chan! This is, umm, this is a misunderstanding!" Momoi quickly retorted waving her hands to catch their attention. "LIA, THIS IS YOUR FAULT!" Lilith started going berserk. "YOU WERE THE ONE WHO INVITED ME!" Lia talked back. Gale face-palmed. "Tsk. No, they were not stalking you… OF COURSE THEY WERE STALKING YOU! Or are you too busy flirting with elementary students that you didn't notice?" She told Kise. The blonde man stared at her in disbelief, wondering where such a girl came from. "I knew that she wasn't an elementary student! She was wearing the Seirin uniform!" He finally retorted, unable to stand such rude behavior.

Gale gritted her teeth. "Sorry, I didn't know you weren't that much of an idiot! You couldn't even tell that they were stalking you!" She snapped. "Don't ignore me when I'm talking, Gale!" Yelena butted in, as she really hated being ignored. Lia and Lilith were both yelling gibberish at each other. Momoi was just staring at the mess, a bit guilty for inviting them.

"I don't make those kinds of assumptions!" Kise yelled back. "I thought you were soooo observant and soooo perceptive that you could copy other people just by watching them? How can you NOT notice just by looking at them?" Gale growled.

"… Kise! What are you doing?"

Everyone turned to look at the new arrivals. The Kaijo starters were there, along with their coach. "… AHHH! I can't take it! So many cute girls!" Moriyama clutched his chest. "WHY ARE YOU HERE WITH THEM?" Hayakawa asked loudly. Kasamatsu's eyes were alternately twitching. He was never the type to interact well with girls. And he was also wondering why their ace was here, behind the bushes, with four girls with unique hair and eye colors... except Yelena. Yelena looked normal. Genta sighed. "We were wondering where you were when we heard your voice along with four other voices coming from here… what were you planning to do with these gir—" The coach was cut off when he saw the rope on the ground.

The rest of the team followed their coach's gaze. They all looked at the rope in shock. "Kise… you sadistic pervert…" Moriyama said, stifling his laughter. "W-WHAT'S THAT ROPE FOR?" Hayakawa was flailing his finger, pointing at the rope as if it was some kind of alienated thing. "… YOU M-MORON! WHAT WERE YOU PLANNING TO DO?" Kasamatsu kicked Kise on the back. "W-Wait! I-It's nothing like that!" The poor ace looked like his face got drained out of all its blood.

Lia covered her mouth. "… Um… I think I should go. Dai-chan might be wondering where I am…" Momoi made up an excuse as she walked away. "I'm going home." Lilith started dragging Lia's arm. Yelena stood up, realizing that her foot was okay, after all. She tugged at Gale's shirt. "Let's go." Gale nodded.

Before they left, Gale looked back at the scene.

Kise's team mates were still staring at him with suspicion as he tried to explain helplessly. "… Hey! Make sure you watch that pervert while he interacts with women! He has a tendency to target elementary students… next time; it won't be a rope anymore." She smirked; her evil icy blue eyes watched Kise's horrified face.
