Chapter 4: infamous Kuga-death-glare
It was already noon and Natsuki's class for that day has already ended. She lay down on the grass by a huge tree near the seitokai dorm, resting her body. Her first day on her new school was surprising as well as horrible. It was only her first day and someone had already adored her. She saw some students blush before her and even stutter. And the worst was she's a member of the seitokai.
'But on the positive side, I get to have free things.' She thought while looking at the blue sky.
She sat up and took out a parchment paper and a pencil from her bag. She began drawing a certain crimson-eyed Fuuka gakuen kaichou, standing by a cherry blossom tree. She drew it as she remembered all of her feelings for Shizuru. Concentrating on each detail of the drawing and pouring al her feelings on the drawing.
"Is that your girlfriend?" a soft voice said from behind Natsuki.
Natsuki tucked away her drawing and looked behind with both brows knitted together. But her angered look came to a blush when a pair of blue eyes was a few inches away from her face. "K-kaichou?!" she yelled in surprise, falling on her back.
Kanade smiled and gave Natsuki a short few hand waves before pulling the blunette up to sit beside her. "I'm sorry if I startled you Natsuki. I was just wondering what you are doing here alone." Kanade said looking at Natsuki like a curious cat.
"Drawing…" she said honestly. For some reason she couldn't lie to her kaichou. She looked beside Kanade and saw a group of girls looking at her with either menacing glares or muttering curses. She looked at the girls with her infamous death glare that made the girls looked svared and ran away. She smirked as she saw the fangirls ran away due to her glare. 'Always came in handy with fan girls.' She triumphantly thought.
"Natsuki are you alright?" Kanade asked making Natsuki stop smirking.
Natsuki just sighed and looked at Kanade with a blank expression. "Oh yes I'm fine kiachou. Ne kaichou can I ask a few things?" she asked with a deadpanned voice.
"As long as I can answer it, you can ask away." Kanade replied with her sweetest smile.
Natsuki sighed again; she felt her heart skip a beat when Kanade beamed a sweet smile at her. "First, why did I wake up in the morning with you? Second, why did you enlist me in your seitokai? And lastly, why are you here?" she asked.
Kanade, being the so calm and smiling, took a look at Natsuki's emerald eyes and smiled. She placed her left index finger over her lips and looked at the sky. "Let see now. First answer is that you pulled me to bed and hugged me tight when I came inside to look at who the covert squad rescued. I couldn't escape your grip and I was too sleepy at that time." She answered making Natsuki blush. Kanade giggled at the sight of Natsuki. "Second uhm… I can see you have talents, well since you saved me yesterday. And lastly we have a meeting in 10 minutes. "
Natsuki looked at Kanade like a confused puppy before processing what Kanade's last answer. "Oh great, I forgot that seitokai has boring meetings. Can't I just skip this kaichou?" she pleaded with a puppy dog pout.
Kanade blushed a little but maintain her smile. She wagged her finger in front in her and gave Natsuki a cute wink. "As much as I like your cute pout, you need to attend it. Or Nanaho might throw a fit." She said in an amusing yet warning tone.
Natsuki groaned and frowned. "I can't do anything else but follow, right kaichou?" she said in defeat. She slowly stood up and swung her back behind her. She reached her hand down to Kanade to help her to stand up.
With yet another sweet smile, Kanade gently grabbed hold of Natsuki's hand and let the blunette pull her up.
"So, lead the way kaichou." Natsuki said, dusting the dirt off her skirt. Kanade nodded and lead the way to the oblique shaped building.
But as they walked to the said building, both Natsuki and Knade stopped walking when a loud voice that came from a megaphone sounded from behind them. "What was that?" Natsuki said in surprise, looking around to find the source of the sound. When she turned around, she saw a large army tank with a group of men in black suit lined up with their arms behind their backs. At the middle is a guy wearing a white suit and holding a megaphone on his hand.
"It's been a while Kanade-san! Isn't it about time you accepted my courtship! Because, if you and I are together this country will become ours!" the guy in the white suit said through the megaphone.
Natsuki sweat drop from all of the ramblings that the guy said. She looked at Kanade with a grossed look. "Is that guy serious kaichou?" Natsuki asked to Kanade.
"KAICHOU!" Nanaho yelled, running towards Natsuki and Kanade together with the whole seitokai.
"Nanaho-san?" Kanade said with a questioning look as Nanaho and the others stopped running and stood before her.
Nanaho bent down a little to catch her breath. After a few inhales and exhales, she wiped the sweat off her forehead and looked at Kanade with concern. "Kaichou, are you alrigth? We heard loud sissy ramblings from the office." she said with concern.
"Natsuki-san, what's the problem here and who's making those rackets?" Kuon asked, looking at Natsuki.
Natsuki pointed at the tank and looked at Nanaho and the others with a perplex expression. "That's the problem… he suddenly shouted his love to the kaichou by a megaphone."
The whole members of the seitokai looked at where Natsuki's pointing and saw what she meant. "eh?! Iwazakura Ryuuheita?!"
"Kanade-san! Let me say it once more. I like you!" the Ryuuheita yelled again. "I-like-you" the guys in black mimicked
"I Love you!" he yelled again. "I-Love-you!" mimicked again by the black suited men.
"It's not about the money!" "Not-about-the-money!"
Natsuki looked at Kanade and the others whike pointing at the tank. "Is he on drugs or something? Even a five year old would know that he's after kaichou's money."
Kanade cupped her own cheek with her left hand and looked worried. "Oh my, it's turning into a bit of trouble. What shall we do?" she said in a worried tone.
As if Kanade's words were like removing a pack of dogs collar when all of the seitokai looked at her with a glint of protectiveness in their eyes. Nanaho stood strong and looked at everyone with a determined look. "This is an order to all members of Gokujou Seitokai! Kaichou is currently in a spot of bother, you all know what that means right?" Nanaho said with authority in her voice.
"Gokujou Seitokai constitution article 1, section7: anyone who interferes with the duties of the kaichou must be dealt with by all means possible." Everyone except Natsuki said in chorus.
"ping pon! But I believe we cannot do anything rash here in campus since he has a tank with him." Siena said in disappointment. "We need to deal with him without the use of force."
Nanaho crossed her arms and looked at Natsuki. "Natsuki-san, might you have any suggestion to this problem?" she asked, eyeing Natsuki's confounded reaction.
"Me? Okay…" she answered as she began approaching the tank.
"kanade-san! Please accept my love!" Ryuuheita yelled again.
"WILL YOU SHUT UP!" Natsuki yelled back with her Kuga-death-glare.
When the men in black and the Ryuuheita looked at the person that dared to yell back, all of them froze from where they were standing. As if they saw a rabid hungry wolf, waiting to pounce on her victim. "a-ah… it's getting late… eheheh… men! Let's go!" Ryuuheita said in fear as he slid down inside the tank together with the men in black and drove away.
Natsuki smirked and looked back at Kanade and the others. "Well that's that." She said in amusement.
Everyone was shock at what Natsuki did. Normally they would fire Ryuuheita with a canon or threathen him with intense beating just to leave, but with only Natsuki's glare he cowered in fear.
"Great! Superb! Awesome!" Rein said in amazement.
"I guess you're right with her being interesting Siena-san." Kuon said with a grin.
"So Kaichou, I guess there isn't any punishment for Natsuki-san being late?" Nanaho said, grinning in amusement.
"Yes, I believe so." Kanade answered while looking at Natsuki. "Let's go Natsuki, you need to meet some of the other members"
Natsuki nodded and walked towards kanade. "I hope I did what you wanted me to do, fuukukaichou." she said with a Cheshire smile.
Nanaho smiled and crossed her arms. "Yes, that was great Natsuki-san. Now allow me to introduce to you the other members. The girl over there with a dark blue hair is Izumi Kaori. She's in the assault team also. And the girl with red hair is Manabe Cindy. She's the only member of the vehicle squad. And the little girl clinging to Siena is her little sister, Minamo."
"Nice to meet you all, I'm Natsuki Kuga." Said Natsuki as she gave the three a polite bow.
"Nice to meet you. I'm Cindy" Cindy said in English.
"I guess I can say you're awesome. You scared that guy with only your stare." Minamo said, clasping both of Natsuki's hands.
"Yeah, you don't need any weapons to defend the kaichou. Your eyes could kill anyone who disturbs her." Kaori said with a giggle.
Natsuki could only laugh and rubbed the back of her head. "I guess I'm just used to scare fans away back at my old school. ehehehe." She said in modesty.
"So Kaichou, what squad shall be put to? The covert squad perhaps?" Kuon asked, hoping that Natsuki would be put to the covert.
"No! Natsuki-san should be in the assault! Right kaichou?" Nanaho suggested.
Kanade shook her head and smiled. She glanced at the confused Natsuki and tilted her head. "Hmm… I think it would be better if she would be my bodyguard."
Everyone's jaw dropped as what Kanade said took them by surprise. Natsuki scratched her head and looked puzzled.
"kaichou you sure about this?" said Puuchan.
"Yes, in that way she can be in all of the squad when needed." Kanade responded with a smile.
Nanaho heaved a sigh and looked at the whole seitokai. She grinned and pointed behind her with her thumb. "Well it's decided then. It's time to have a welcoming party for Natsuki!" she said happily.
All of them except for Natsuki, Mayura, and Kanade jumped happily and began yelling 'party'. "kaichou! What about the budget?" Mayura complained. "Sorry Mayura…" was the only answer of everyone making Mayura to sniffle.
Natsuki could only sigh and rub her temple. 'I think I was better off at Fuuka or not going to school at all.'She thought as she followed the happy seitokai back to the dorm. 'Shizuru… I hope you're happy now.'

At Fuuka gakuen seitokai office, Shizuru was calmly drinking her tea when her tea cup suddenly had cracked at the middle. She looked at her tea cup and blinked a few times. "Ara? It cracked…" she said in her curious Kyoto-ben accent.
"Are you alright Ru-chan?" Reito asked worriedly.
Shizuru just put up her façade and placed the cup on her table. "Yes Reito-kun I am fine. But this cup… Natsuki…" she said in a sad tone.
Reito cupped his chin and looked around. "Now that you mentioned it, I haven't seen Kuga-san in a while. I haven't even received any complaints about her."
Shizuru tilted her head and looked puzzled. "Maybe she skipped class again. She does that a lot you know." Said Shizuru. But somehow she suddenly felt her heart began to hurt like a needle was poking it.
"Yeah maybe you're right. Or Kuga-san might've finally found a man for her and eloped, don't you agree Suzushiro-san?" He jested and let out a soft chuckle.
Haruka, whose currently looking at the files that Yukino was showing to her looked at Reito with a confounded look. "Are you stupid Kanzaki-san? Kuga's not that deseperate."
"It's desperate Haruka-chan." Yukino corrected. She looked at Shizuru from the corner of her eye and saw that she has a sudden puzzled look.
"That's what I said! Anyway, don't go judging anyone who's not here anymore. Let's go Yukino, I think these dense people need to be left alone. " Haruka commented, pulling Yukino off the chair and dragged her outside the room.
'Not anymore here? What does she mean?'Shizuru wondered, staring blankly at the door.
"Suzushiro's always full of spirit, ne Ru-chan?" Reito said with a toothy smile.
Shizuru looked at Reito and just nodded, since she honestly didn't hear the fuukukaichou's words.
"Oh Ru-chan, on Saturday is the interschool kendo practice match. Would you do me the honor of watching me fight? It would make me much stronger."
"Ara! it would be nice Reito-kun. Also, I am needed in that competition as well since we will have a special guest on that event. I'll be looking forward into seeing you fight to your best." Shizuru said, tracing the cracked of the tea cup.
Reito stood up and hugged Shizuru before giving the brunette a wide pearly white smile. "Thank you Ru-chan."
Shizuru felt tense at Reito's hug, yet she just inhaled deeply and put up her façade. "ara, it's no problem, my K-san." She said with a teasing tone.
