Yo minna! Back with the fourth chapter! I hope that you'll like this one. Sorry for posting it after soo long. Enjoy~

As I've noticed that many of the reviewers think that this story is going to continue as a yuri fiction, they are very wrong. There will only be some yuri crushes but no actual yuri or yaoi. NO YURI!

Attention kids, try to tilt your head upwards when you read that they are looking up. You'll find your head facing the ceiling.

Days at Sakura High: First Semester

Day 4 The Mystery Behind

"Ojou-sama!"

Suke ran upto her as Sakura fell on the ground, unconscious. She had taken too much blows from Rai and his gang.

'Darn it. I'm losing it...'

Luckly, before she fell, Suke caught her. The rest of the gang ran upto them, asking various questions.

Oh, I forgot to describe Suke. Despite having a really weird name, Suke is actually a very good-looking and calm guy. He was very fair, he had sharp features and greyish-black hair. His eyes were light brown. That Suke was a devoted bodyguard of Sakura. Now let's get back to the story.

Suke held her in his arms. Sakura's body was hotten up from the fights. He checked her injuries and noted that she needed immediate medical attention. 'Just how much have they beat her?'

He called the other members and told them to call an ambulance.

"I called an ambulance. They'll by here by the next thirty minutes." a guy with brown hair said.

"Good." Suke said and held Sakura closer, 'Hang in there!'

An Hour Earlier

Everyone headed towards their respective clubs after packing.

Sakura left earlier that day. She wasn't feeling very well and felt like something was wrong within her. Her gang offered to accompany her but she refused. She wanted to walk alone as for some reason, she didn't feel like walking home with someone.

Mizuki, Hayami, Izumo and two other boys were talking about something among themselves. It was Izumo who had called them.

"Gomen minna, but I have to go to the hospital to check Kaa-san." Izumo said. The others smiled.

"Ah, don't worry Kaichou. We'll handle the rest among ourselves." a guy with dirty blonde hair said. His name was Sugaya Itsuki.

"Yep. Just as he says." another guy with dark green hair said. His name was Shinkawa Takeshi. Izumo smiled.

"Arigatou, minna." he said.

Ren was looking at them since she heard that Izumo had to leave the school early. That meant disaster, but that couldn't be helped.

Just as Shinkawa finished speaking, he looked at her, "If anything happens, then..."

Ren stood up and walked towards the door, "Gomen, but I have a meeting."

Saying that, she walked out. Seeing Ren go out, Kai stood up.

"Good luck." Mizuki said and waved to Ren. Kai left the classroom just after that. Ren noticed him.

"Arn't you in any clubs, Kurosaki?" he asked.

"No." Ren replied, "I have work."

Kai nodded upon hearing that. He decided to ask her about what happened when she was with Sakura. There was that question that he had planned to ask if he had time after that.

"What happened?" he asked. Ren turned back.

"Hm?"

"What happened when you were with Sakurai?" Kai repeated.

"Long story." Ren said, "To cut it short, do you know about the most terrifying legend of this school?"

"I've heard about it, but I don't know." Kai said.

"Then I'll tell you." Ren said, "This place is known as the 'Magnet of Legends'."

Kai nodded and Ren continued, "It's said that this place attracts the most mysterious and strong legends, then finishes them off. One by one."

Kai got rather interested in it, "I never knew that."

"Only the students here know. Then let me continue." Ren said, "It happened that a second year student of this school was killed here by a legend himself."

"And?" Kai asked, showing more interest. There were stories about commiting suicide or an accident of students and then their ghosts hunting others, but that one was new. He never heard about killing.

"It happened about thirty six years ago. A beautiful girl named Fuma Yumiko was studying in her second year here. She was proposed by a guy who apparently was a legend in secret. His name was Kazama Yusuke."

Kai's eyes widened upon hearing his name. "Kazama... Yusuke? He's one of the most famous legends."

"Yes," Ren said, "That Kazama got rejected by her. Then he took the help of his Bit-beast's power and killed her. He was killed some days later. Since then, it is said that Fuma Yumiko gathers all the strong legends here and kills them one by one."

"Is that so..." Kai said. He never knew that something like that was there in that school.

They had walked out of the school and reached the station while talking. Suddenly, Ren tilted her head upwards as if she had to tell Kai something, "You know, there's a rumor that there'll be another transfer student at 3-A on Thursday."

Kai looked up, "Again?"

"Yeah." Ren said.

It was Tuesday, so it meant that the transfer student would join from the day after the next day.

The rest of the distance was covered in quietness. That was, until they came across the gang that Sakura had beaten up.

Ren recognised the gang and the leader. She stopped and gestured for Kai to stop as well. The gang was pretty worn out and beaten up. She guessed that it was Sakura.

However, it was also true that Sakura wasn't acting like her usual self. The gang and everything else probably meant danger. But then, that Rai and his gang thought that they were utterly humilated.

Rai, too, recognised the uniform of the two. Kai sensed vengeance from them. That meant danger for Ren and him. But he wasn't someone to retreat so easily, since he was a delinquent once himself.

Rai thought about taking them as hostages. But he had to lead them to somewhere abandoned.

Ren smirked as they started walking towards Kai and her.

"Kurosaki, back off." Kai said. Ren looked at him.

"Naze?" she asked.

"I don't think that this's a woman's thing. You might get hurt." Kai replied. Ren looked and smirked.

"Shall I show you why Sakura likes me so much?" she asked in a cunning voice. Kai looked at her and sensed a different aura. An aura similar to the one he sensed when he first met her. No, the aura was different than that one as well. It wasn't only cold, but like she was a devil. Her crimson eyes sparkled like a devil's. Kai backed off.

"Oi, you two," Rai said as he approached them in a delinquent manner, "Come with us for a second."

Kai thought that Ren would react differently once she saw him. Then, they were in the public.

Ren didn't say a thing and remained completely calm. Even her facial expression had changed. But something was negative. They followed Rai and his gang into a ground where there were no people.

Kai chose to stand near Ren and noted all of her actions just like he did at the training. Rai wasn't completely sure how to approach them. He went blunt.

"Listen, I'm going to take you as hostages against Sakura's gang. If you value your lives, then come quietly." he said. Ren remained completely calm. Kai noted that Rai didn't recognise their faces.

A small smirk appeared on Ren's face, "Like the hell we are."

Rai and his gang was surprised at the her response. No one ever dared to say that to his gang, not even Izumo!

But that girl was something else.

"Oi oi, Ojou-chan, don't you care if something happens to you or him?" Rai asked, coming closer towards Ren. She didn't even back away.

"Try to do it, kuzu." Ren said in a harsher, challenging and cunning tone. Rai was at his limit then. He couldn't take any girl take away his pride and all. He raised his hand.

"Now you've done it!" Rai said and drove his hand with immense power and speed. Kai was about to stop his attacks but stopped himself.

Rai looked up, hoping for results, only to find Ren holding his hand firmly.

"Is that all you've got?" she asked, back to her devilish self. She smirked even more. Then turned his hand around, resulting in him turning back (you must have seen thus scene in other animes). The grip was so tight and her arm was so strong that he couldn't resist the force. Further more, her hand was as cold as a dead being!

Kai was taken aback by that. He never thought that she was that strong. Then he remembered that Kazuto told him that she was famous for her strenght as well earlier that day. The other gang members were taken aback as well.

"So, now what?" Ren asked in her devilish tone that sent chills down Rai's and his gang's spine, even Kai's!

Rai didn't know what to say, "Kuso..."

Ren decided to free her hands, as Rai's followers would attack soon. She threw him aside that possibly no one other than Sakura could've done. His members started attacking soon. It was easier for Ren than she had thought.

The battle was totally one-sided, even though the delinquents got up to fight Ren again but were knocked down, again. The fight ended in Ren's favour.

Kai had literally taken out a notebook and strated noting Ren's moves. They had such a speed that no one could even see them properly and a great timing. It wasn't like she was just throwing her arms and kicking continuously even when no one approached her. Moreover, her moved seemed to be powerful. He wondered if he could use them while beyblading.

And they were done there.

"Sheesh, and here I was hoping to get fired up." Ren said in a rather carefree voice, putting her hands inside her pokect, "But maybe we should check on Sakurai."

"She's a well known delinquent, I don't think that she had any casualties fighting them." Kai said.

"Then again, she was acting weird." Ren reasoned, "And it means danger for her."

Kai looked up, "What danger?"

"It's also a part of the mystery." Ren said, "That anyone who acts weird after a mysterious incident is targeted first."

"Come on, Kurosaki. I didn't think that you of all people would believe in such a thing." Kai said.

"Don't compare it to other half-assed mysteries." Ren said, "Because you never know what the beybladers who've forged with their bit-beasts can do."

Kai looked up with interest, "He forged with his bit-beast?"

"Yes, he did. He made a contract with his bit-beast, gaining it's powers. But that has its downs as well. Whenever someone who's forged with his bit-beast beyblattles, he gains all the injuries his beyblade has endured in that battle." Ren said.

'She knows a lot.' Kai thought.

"Kurosaki, can you beyblade?" he asked.

"Yes, but I don't like to do it." Ren replied. Kai didn't bother to ask more questions.

They started heading towards their own home, again back to the silent walkers.

Bentou rushed to the hospital after hearing what had happened to his granddaughter. Sakura had come back to her consiousness by that time. The door leading to her room opened with a loud noise and Suke and four other guys jumped from their seat. Bentou came and took a seat.

"How are you feeling right now?" he asked in a concerned voice. Sakura was looking downwards at first after seeing her grandfather then looked up with a smile that Bentou remembered seeing when she was still a young. It was totally unlike her. Something was wrong.

"Gomen nasai, Oji-san." she said and the others present looked at her with surprised eyes. The way she spoke had changed. The way she looked at them had changed. Something was definitely wrong.

"Sakura..." Bentou trailed off. She looked so innocent, like a child before Ren was there to harden her.

"Ne Oji-san, I have decided to stop fighting." Sakura said and the rest were taken further aback by that. Sakura wasn't a person to say that. Nor Bentou or Suke and the others tried to say a thing.

Surely, something was wrong. Sakura had changed drastically, back to what she was...

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The next day

Everything was peaceful. Sakura was still admitted at the hospital. The rumors about the second transfetransfer had spreaded across the whole third year. Some said it was a guy and some said it was a girl.

"What do you think, Kaze-kun? A guy or a girl?" Mizuki asked.

"A guy." Ren said without even thinking for a moment. Suddenly, the door opened with a bang. It was Jun. She looked to be in a hurry. She looked around the class and walked towards Ren's desk in an unusual haste.

"Did something happen, Jun?" Mizuki asked. Jun didn't answer that question.

"Kaze," she approached Ren, "Something has happened to Sakura!"

Ren looked worried, "What happened to her?"

Jun swallowed hard before starting, "I kept losing consiousness from time to time yesterday, and everytime I lost it, I kept seeing a person who looked like a ghost in a corridors of this place. She told me that I couldn't run away anymore. At last, she told me that she has started from Sakura. I sensed something fishy and headed towards the hospital. There I saw her and she has..."

Kai looked up to hear. He was paying much more interest in it for some reason.

"She has what?" Ren asked, starting to take it seriously that she did before.

"...Completely changed." Jun finished. The listeners looked surprised. That wasn't a matter to be taken lightly.

Ren had further confusion to clear, but Kamiya had to enter at that time. Let's just get over with it. Everything went as normal. All the classes didn't have much drama.

And again it was recess. Recess plays a very important role, in case if you're think why I always mention it.

And Ren had doubts to clears, "Jun."

Jun looked up, "What is it, Kaze?"

"You said that Sakurai had changed, right?" Ren said, "Tell me, how much?"

"Like the time she was at junior high, timid. She has said that she wants to stop being a delinquent and stop fighting." Jun said. Ren looked surprised.

"And what about this 'ghost' that makes you unconscious from time to time and tells you about those creepy things?"

"Ah, that." Jun said, looking down, "I think that it maybe Fuma Yumiko."

Ren looked sharply, "Are you sure?"

"I don't know. I only think that it's her." Jun said. She stood up. Then someone called her.

She looked back. It was Kai.

"Come with me." he said and left the classroom. Jun did so.

Kazuto was already out. He was deeply thinking about what happened with Jun and Sakura. 'It maybe her...'

Suddenly, he saw Kai walking into a less populated corridor along with Jun. He decided to take a look at what they were upto.

"Um, why did you call me here, Kai?" Jun asked, looking around. It was nearly abandoned.

Kai turned around to face her, "I'm going to ask you a question that might remind you of something unpleasant."

Jun looked down. She knew what he was going to ask.

"Hashima, the one appearing in your dreams, is it her?" Kai asked. Jun's expressions darkened. She stayed quiet.

'The one appearing in her dreams?' Kazuto thought.

Jun stayed quiet for a few moments. Kai waited for her to answer. He stopped trying to make her say anything about it since he knew that it was very rough.

"Well, you don't have to force yourself." he said and started walking. Jun stayed quiet until he got past her.

"Why did you ask it?" she asked, not turning back or lifting her head.

"Because you may die this time." Kai said, turning back. Jun, too, turned to face him.

'What does he mean by that?' Kazuto thought again. The situation was getting tensed.

"Why do you care, Kai?" she asked. Her voice sounded heavy and dark. Kai came closer.

"Haven't I always done?" he asked in a resisting tone. Jun blushed and looked down

'Oi oi, for real?' Kazuto thought again. I know that this's getting on your nerve.

Jun slowly looked up with a blush. She never thought that Kai of all people would say that. But suddenly, she felt everything going black in front of her eyes. Then she starting losing her consiousness.

Kazuto, seeing Jun suddenly fall on the ground unconscious, ran out of the corner from where he was listening.

'Damn it. Again... And when I finally had a chance to talk to him after years...'

Jun could see the suddsudden shock of Kai and Kazuto running from the corner before her sight was covered in black. She fell on the floor, or that was what she thought. She felt arms catch her before she could fall and lost her consciousness.

"Hashima!"

Kai caught her before she fell on the ground. Kazuto leaned over her, "Take her to the nurse's room, right now."

Kai nodded before standing up. Kazuto followed him too.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hiroto was sitting on his seat and typing something in his laptop. After hearing Jun in the morning, he started his research on Fuma Yumiko and Kazama Yusuke. He found the same story about Kazama geeting rejected by Fuma then killing her. He checked all the search results. All of them had the same story. But the last one contained something different. He clicked it.

It really had a different story. He read it and couldn't believe it. He checked out the username of the creator of that site. Something totally different than what the legend said.

Hiroto was more than happy to find that site. He took his laptop and ran off to find Ren or anyone else.

But suddenly, Mizuki announced that Jun lost her consciousness. That was a bad news.

Ha went towards the nurse's office. He hoped to find everyone knowing about the situation there. And he was right.

Jun had started to gain consciousness went he entered.

"How are you feeling, Joker-san?" he asked. Jun looked at him with wary eyes.

"Oh Hirochhi, I'm alright. This happened a lot yesterday." she said, hoping for not only Hiroto but everyone to understand. That didn't stop Mizuki.

"Iie Jun-chan! You should get a doctor to check you." she said.

"Maa, I'm telling you there's no need to!" Jun said. Kazuto sweat-dropped.

Suddenly, two more figures jumped into that room. It was the Student Council members.

"Are you okay, Hashima?" Izumo asked.

Jun nodded, "I'm alright."

That being said, Shinkawa jumped forward, "No you arn't, Jun! You need to see a doctor!"

Kazuto and Jun sweat-dropped, "I'm telling you, man!"

Sugaya laughed a bit, "And why don't you want to go to a doctor?"

Jun blushed with fustration and looked down, "I have my reasons!"

"And what they are?" Hayami said, joining in. The Student Council was a real worry wart's council.

"First, whenever I return after seeing myself to a doctor, I get chased by a dog! Second, after taking those medicines, I..."

The Student Council leaned towards her, "You what?"

"I..."

The stares grew intense. The Student Council wanted to know what happened to her and the rest wanted to know their reactions. They chuckled.

"I... suffer from... loose motion..." Jun somehow managed to say. Everyone snorted, trying hard to control their laughter. Jun blushed further with embarrasment, "What's so funny, huh?!"

No one asnwered, but kept on chuckling a little, and Kai got reminded of something hilarious as well. Hiroto was chuckling too. He was about to tell, but stopped himself because he had no evidence at all that it was the truth. He didn't want to waste their time. But he made up his mind to tell about it to Ren.

"Um, Kaze-san. Do you have a moment?" he asked Ren. Kai looked at them from the corner of his eyes.

"What do you need?" she asked.

"I want you to come outside." Hiroto said. Ren slightly nodded. They both went outside without being noticed at all. Kai noticed them though.

Ren closed the door, "What do you want?"

"I want you to look at this." Hiroto said, forwarding his computer. Ren looked at it.

"Matte, isn't this..."

"Hai, it is a story about Fuma's case." Hiroto said, "I think that we can find some clues from here."

"Then let me look into it as well."

Hiroto and Ren turned around. It was Kai.

"I want to find a way to stop it." he said. Hiroto didn't object. Ren smirked.

"You seem to be worked up when it comes to stopping it. Did something happen in the past with Jun and you?" she asked. Kai nodded.

"Well, I don't have any problem." Hiroto said, seeing that Kai had a reason. He gestured for them to come closer.

"The story is.."

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The Student Council members as well as Mizuki had left. It was only Jun and Kazuto in the nursing office.

"They get so worked up." Jun said, looking at the door even if it was out of her view.

"They do." Kazuto said. Then he looked at Jun and was reminded of what Kai and she talked about.

"Listen, Jun."

Jun looked at Kazuto, "What is it?"

"I heard what Kai and you were talking about before you got unconscious." Kazuto said. Jun blushed as she remembered what Kai told her.

"You did? Seriously?" she asked.

"Yep, seriously." Kazuto said. Jun blushed even further.

"Promise that you won't tell anyone." she said.

"On one condition." Kazuto said, smirking. Jun got nervous.

"What is it?" she asked slowly. Kazuto smirked even more.

"Come on a date with me."
