Chapter 4 – OM NOM NOM NOM NOM
Samantha was eating her third serving of beef cutlets and potatoes; she was wearing an unusual smirk on her tanned face, 'I'm so happy, yay!' thought Samantha, her state of mind was extremely out of character and it was unnerving to anyone who was familiar with Samantha's regular personality.
Hime was quietly sitting there after just eating an apple and drinking a glass of guava juice, she twitched every time Samantha made a sound or action to express how happy she was, sensing that Marie was looking at her in a questioning way, Hime said, "Umm… my sister is not usually like this, she just enters a euphoric state when she is fed after not eating for a couple of days," Hime explained this like she was a doctor diagnosing a patient.
"But you seem awfully on edge," retorted Marie in her usual gentle and mother like tone.
"Umm…yes I am because every time she's like this, she always does something to embarrass me," replied Hime, while scooting a bit further away from Samantha.
Marie chuckled and as if on cue Samantha picked up Hime's plate and instantly frowned, "Hey sis, how come you ate so little?" asked Samantha.
"Oh, that… I'm just not that hungry," lied Hime while wringing her hands under the table.
"LIES!" screamed Samantha, Make Hime jump out of surprise – hitting her knees on the underside of the table, "You're on a diet aren't cha? Is this for Onyx? It is isn't it; you wanna thin up so you can look better in Onyx's eyes. Heh hilarious! You're so damn stupid!" Berated Samantha, while at the same time poking and groping Hime around the hips in an effort to find flab.
Hime, looking like she was on the verge of tears – embarrassed that Samantha called her out on her dieting and doing it very loudly at that; the whole canteen probably heard. "How can you be so mean to me!" Screamed Hime, her face red and her eyes glassy.
Samantha sighed, "You're stupid because you should know by now; Onyx loves you for who you are, body shape doesn't matter to him…" Samantha suddenly changed her amused expression into a solemn one as she leaned towards her sister and whispered into her ear, "Don't you dare force ya self to change, ya hear me? Cos if ya do, Onyx will be upset that his beautiful princess forced herself to change cos of him… Onyx told me that our beauty is unmatched because it's natural; we bear the scars of our past for the world to see, we don't hide them like others would. He told me that we are beautiful because; despite everything that we've been through, we didn't force ourselves to change – we only learnt from our mistakes and THAT'S why he stuck by us, protected us and loved us. Don't you dare take his kindness for granted."
Hime closed her eyes and said in a barely audible tone, "Ok sis, I won't force change, it will happen naturally. Thank you, you and master are always looking out for me; I love you both so much."
"And both of us love you – we're not gonna stop looking out for you any time soon, so just do us one favour alright? Keep being our kindness, our reason, our lil' angelic princess," replied Samantha, resuming her original position.
Marie was looking at them out of the corner of her uncovered eye, 'All three of them need each other because that's all they have been given in their life, I think I'm finally beginning to understand all this,' Marie got up from her seat and told the two sisters, "excuse me girls but I'm going to head back to my office, here take this and have fun…OH! But don't go spending all at once ok? Tata!" Marie excused herself while handing the sisters some notes – 15 notes to be exact.
The Sisters thank Marie after Hime promptly refused to accept anymore money from Marie and getting an elbow in the ribs for her trouble – courtesy of Samantha.

Marie walked around the corner and stopped when she spotted who she was looking for.
"So? Find anything?" Asked Stein, his hands in his lab coat's pockets
"Nothing except that that all three need each other and love each other," replied Marie.
"Love…Love, such a foreign concept; I don't think I'll ever understand it…" Stein mused.
"Oh? Is that so?" Said Marie sounding disappointed.
Stein either didn't notice Marie's tone or didn't care, "Well enough of that, I have a theory as to what that meister actually is..." Pausing to push his glasses up- his glasses giving off a dramatic white glint due to the light froma lone light bulb in the dark hallway reflecting off of them- Stein continued, "Our mysterious meister Onyx here is a witch."

Black Star sat in the canteen swinging his spoonful of potatoes around angrily and continued his tirade, "Stupid jerk with his stupid mouth and stupid voice…" ranted Black Star, "Next time I see him, I'm going to show him the power of the man that's gonna surpass God one day!"
Before Tsubaki –who was sitting opposite Black Star – could say anything, Black Star's spoon slipped from his grasp and hit a passing student wearing a visor; it was a direct hit to the face.
The student growled and threw a pudding cup at Black Star, who dodged it and Tsubaki ended up with pudding all over her well endowed chest.
"Oh God, I'm so sorry Tsubaki." Apologised the visor clad student.
"It's fine I'm sure it will come out if I-"Tsubaki's reply got cut off when Black Star drop kicked the visor clad student into a table, splashing food on it's occupants.
Kid and Liz just groaned, but patty turned around to face Black Star with a face full of chocolate, then she uttered the dreaded words, "FOOD FIGHT!"
Patty started throwing plate after plate, tray after tray around the canteen; taking down four of the staff and blind-siding a dark skinned student sitting in between to small children.
The dark skinned student cursed while wiping off ketchup from his cornrows. He then proceeded to pick up his plate and throw it at Patty.
This food throwing chained until the canteen looked like a warzone, complete with edible artillery being thrown around.
Samantha and Hime were taking cover behind their now flipped table.
"HOW THE FUCK DID THIS HAPPEN!?" Questioned Samantha.
"I don't know but I'm going to find a teacher…" Hime said as she peered over the top of the table, only to find a bowl full of custard smash into her delicate head. Hime fell backwards and laid on the floor, her face not visible due to the custard covering it.
"Uh, sis you alright?" Asked Samantha, Samantha recoiled as Hime opened her eyes, only her eyes were visible but the emotion was clear; vengeance. 'Shit, they messed her hair up, gotta get out of here fast before she goes hell's angel mode, too late…damn' Samantha's eyes widened in horror as Hime wiped custard of her face and licked her hand like a bloodthirsty animal.
Emitting a feral growl and then chuckling insanely, Hime picked up an apple and a rectangular tray from the ground, "I'm gonna show em' hell, I'm gonna FUCKIN' ANNIHILATE THESE PRICKS!" bellowed Hime.
Hime threw her apple and with sniper like accuracy, headshotted Patty in the back of her head – instantly knocking her out and sending her about four feet back due to the force of impact. The poor apple exploded like glass thrown against a wall – except the wall in question was actually patty's skull.
Black Star sensing killing intent turned around but only found a rectangular tray collide with his the side of his neck – Hime smiled at this and laughed like a madwoman – Black Star rebounded off a nearby wall due to the impact of the thrown tray and lost consciousness; the only thing he saw before he blacked out was a woman with a sickening smile look in his direction – Black Star would never admit it but he almost shit himself from fear.
Hime turned back - after downing Patty and Black Star- to face Samantha, who wore a look of absolute terror on her face. When Hime said nothing and started walking towards Samantha with a blank look in her eye, the tanned blonde started to freak out; first backing away on all fours then scrambling up to her feet and finally turned around and prepared to break the world record for the 100 meter sprint.
Before Samantha could actually sprint, a hand landed on her shoulder; giving the poor tanned girl shivers. As Samantha forced herself to turn around, Hime spoke, "I'm not going to hurt you, I'm just upset that my hair is ruined.
"Oh, ok good, so ya back to normal," Samantha turned around and looked at Hime, then down at her own clothes, "Yeah, looks like it's not just our hair that's messed up, it's our clothes too."
"We should get cleaned up, I think that there is a wash room back at the nurses office," Hime said simply; too simply, Samantha knew what Hime was missing out and probably going to say next. "And while we are there, we can check up on master." Yep Samantha knew something was off when Hime didn't mention Onyx.

"Yeah you should of seen it, Soul! It was awesome; the canteen looked like a battlefield!" Said Black Star, a bit too loudly.
"Yeah, cool story bro," replied a less than enthusiastic Soul
"OH, OH, OH! Look there she is," Black Star shouted while pointing at Hime, who was walking with Samantha in the opposite direction in which Black Star and Soul were walking. "Hey! Lady, did you like my throw with the cust-" Black Star was cut off when Hime walked straight passed him and punched him in the throat without so much as making eye contact – the poor boy's throat making a sickening crunch sound when Hime's fist collided with it like a car hitting a dog.
Soul looked at Hime then picked up Black Stars' body, "Hehe, don't mind me ladies, I didn't see a thing, I'm just gonna take by friend here to the nurses office for a quick check up."
"You will not go within five feet of the nurses office understand?" Hime asked – but it was more of a command due to the soul shivering glare Hime gave Soul.
"Or I can just drop him off at Stein's office, y'know, whatever floats your boat, hehe no biggie. See ya," replied Soul, dying to get around the corner without pissing himself from fear.
After a few more minutes of walking, the sisters arrive at the nurses' office. Hime was the first to open the door – gently but with a desperate haste. Hime was glad to see that Onyx was still there and sleeping peacefully. Without a word both sisters opened the door to the wash room and proceeded to wash the food off their clothes and also to shower in the process.
The powerful drizzle of the shower's rod making a steady rhythm with the lithe bodies of both sisters made them relax. The strong aroma of lavender and cocoa butter shower gel put both sister's minds at ease, this was a small, yet much needed reprieve from the stress of what has happened lately.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh… Oh my, that was simply wonderful, we must get a house somewhere just so we can take showers like this every day," said Hime, drifting in and out of bliss.
"Yeah we should," replied Samantha, clearly not focusing on Hime's words.
Hime followed her sister's gaze all the way down to her chest, Hime instantly folded her arms to cover her nipples, but the position of her arms forced her ample breasts to be pushed up, making them look even bigger than they already were.'
Samantha growled in frustration, "Damn it! It's not fair! Why are your tits so much bigger than mine? We both practically eat and drink the same thing." Samantha showed her disappointment by looking down at her own breasts and scowling.
"There isn't much of a difference, it's not such a big deal," replied the modest as ever Hime.
"Oh who are ya kiddin', I'm a B-cup and your basically a D-cup; our tits are worlds apart!" Samantha threw both her arms in the air in a gesture of defeat, "Even when you're wearin' that loose kimono, ya tits still look bigger than mine!"

Outside of the washroom, Onyx was wide awake and smirking, 'I'm glad those two are relaxing, they're so high strung…maybe I should buy a house in death city, after this whole Medusa ordeal is over,' Contemplated Onyx while changing into his usual trench coat, but this time he left the hood off; revealing Onyx to have a young looking face, complete with uncombed black hair and cold eyes with dark purple irises.
Onyx was now standing and waiting for his beloved friends to step out of the shower. His left side still aching dully and some parts of his body still stung.
