Red Roses: So, chapter 4 is up. Thank you for those who reviewed my story. It makes me feel like I'm writing for real readers and not ghosts here.

I'm not trying to be desperate, I just want to know more of the people who are reading my story. The only thing I know is that you must have a phone or computer and you like Sket Dance. I really want to know more. So, please leave a review and tell me how you feel (I sounded like a therapist somehow).

And as a special gift, I've got a character who was actually invited in this introduction to do the disclaimer; locally famous seiyu and singer, Momoka!

Momoka:...Um R-Red Roses do not own Sket Dance.

Red Roses: I don't feel so sad about not owning Sket Dance when it's coming from a cute voice. Now, onwards with the story! The Student Council isn't in here much but I promise you they will be back in the next chapter.

WARNING: More Bad humour and weirdness ahead. Also, some inappropriate subjects. Just saying...

The next few days, Shinako has gotten used to her new environment in school. Ever since she started school jumping, she never stayed long enough to really get acquainted to a high school life. It was fun meeting the people here but there was three problems in her life right now:

1) She's in the same class as Katou (darn delinquent ninja!).

2) She hasn't decided on a club to join yet.

3) She's in the same class as Katou.

Since she can't do anything about problem 1 and 3, she can only think of a club to join. Seeing that the Student Council was currently full and since she's new, this would be a good way to start off the semester.

"I wonder which club should I attend..." Shinako thought aloud, while looking at all the possible clubs on the school board. There were many (odd) posters up on the board and Shinako was having trouble deciding on which club to take up.

"Hey, Shinako." She heard a familiar voice calling her so, Shinako turned to see Shinpei walking towards her. At least she's glad Shinpei is in her class or her life in school would be complete hell.

"Good morning, Shinpei-kun." She greeted him politely but with a more casual tone then with other people. She knew him since the day they both were able to hold a wooden sword.

"Whatcha doing?" Shinpei asked, looking at the same board that Shinako seems to find more interesting.

"I'm looking for a club to join." She answered.

"So, I'm guessing no luck?"

Shinako nodded sadly and sighed. "I really have no idea what to do."

"Why don't ask that Tsubaki guy to help? You seem pretty friendly with him," He questioned. "Been hearing weird rumours."

"I-I can't ask Tsubaki-sama such a thing! He is much too busy and I wouldn't want to bother him." Shinako stuttered a bit at first. She really respects the president and she didn't want to bother him with such a trivial thing.

Shinpei thought for a while and an idea popped up. "I know, why don't you ask the Sket-Dan for help?"

"The Sket-Dan?"

"Yea, they're pretty good at fixing problems like this."

"...Alright."

Shinpei and Shinako walked down the hallways until they reach the Sket-Dan clubroom. They stopped in front of the door and they heard voices on the other side so they know they're in. With Shinpei beside her, Shinako shyly slide open the door.

"Good morni-" Shinako's throat closed up when she saw it. That terrible grey colour which befits it's terrible persona, those sharp, terrifying talons, the way it quietly sits there on it's pedestal carefully watching everyone like some sort of predator with its large, unblinking eyes.

"AAAAHHHHH!" Shinako let out a loud shriek which scared everyone nearby. She grabbed hold onto the closest thing to her, which was Shinpei's arm, and held it like a life line, slightly injuring Shinpei.

"Shinako!?" Himeko was so scared, she accidentally dropped her cup of tea, landing on Bossun's foot.

"OW, THAT'S HOT!" Bossun yelled out, grabbing his foot, trying to ease the pain.

"Sorry, Bossun."

"Shinako, what's wrong!?" Shinpei asked, confused and surprised why his timid yet usually calm classmate would suddenly scream like that.

"AN OWL!" She replied with another shriek when she met the said subject of terror looking at her in confusion. In its midst of confusion, it flew towards the hysterical student, which was not a good idea.

"AAAHHHH! STAY AWAY FROM ME!"

"I apologize for my rather rash actions." Shinako said embarrassed, sitting on the couch with Shinpei, keeping as much distance as she can from the demon bird(?).

"It's alright. Everyone has their fears." Himeko assured the junior, waving it off like it was normal.

"You sure are scared of Hosuke, aren't ya?"

Shinako nodded sheepishly, a blush still present on her pale face. "When I was young, an owl flew into my room from my window and landed on my bed. It was carrying a dead rat and it was revolting. I was scared ever since."

"Owls are natural carnivorous predators and are considered doom-bringers in the old days. It is easy to see how you would develop a fear from them." Switch expresses his understanding for her fear, though again not physically showing it.

"Will you stop bringing that up?" Himeko said, whacking the otaku's head before sitting down on the bench with Bossun. "So, what brings you here?"

"Well..." Shinako told them about her predicament; about looking for a club and not wanting to bother Tsubaki.

"Alright then, we'll help you find the right club."

"Thank you so much!"

"..."

"..."

"..."

"JOIN THE SKET-DAN!"

"Eeehh!?"

After constantly refusing their offer, the Sket-Dan started on helping Shinako find a suitable club. Unfortunately, Shinpei had to leave because it was his turn to clean the classroom so he left early.

Himeko checked the list of the school clubs in school Switch printed out. "Ok, our first club is..."

"So, you want to try for the cheerleading club?"

The Sket-Dan asked Yabasawa to help Shinako try out for the cheerleading team. Luckily, Yabasawa happened to have an extra cheerleader uniform for the female samurai. Apparently, the uniform was a little too small for her.

But, coincidentally, it was a fit for Shinako and Shinako got to try out for the team.

"Wah, Shinako-chan! You look really good in that uniform." Himeko complimented.

Shinako was fidgeting around, pulling her pink skirt in a fruitless attempt to cover up her legs. Without her turtleneck and longer skirt, she was blushing furiously. And for the fun of it, Switch decided it was a good idea to change her hairstyle into twintails.

"A young maiden should not wear something so improper!"

"Forget that, go try out!" Bossun, probably the only one thinking of the mission pushed Shinako towards the cheerleading group.

"Ok, we'll start with the basic cheers." One of the cheerleaders instructed.

"A-Alright."

Shinako took a deep breath and started cheering to the beat. She's turned out to be pretty good at it, she was athletic enough and she had good rhythm but there was a problem.

"Shinako, you can't stop during the cheer and you need to kick higher."

"I can't kick that way, people will see my unmentionables. This is unacceptable for a young maiden!"

"I apologize for the burden I'm causing." Shinako's face cooled down a bit after changing back into her normal clothing.

"I guess cheerleading ain't your thing. We'll keep looking." Bossun said, crossing out cheerleading from the list.

"Next is..."

"Welcome to the Occult Research Club..." an eerie voice came from the strangely dark room.

"Hello, Yuuki-san." Switch greeted nonchalantly.

"Ahhh, Switch-kun. Have you finally seen the errors of your scientific beliefs and decided to join my club?"

"Never. I will never believe these ridiculous and childish beliefs of yours."

Shinako wasn't sure but she could have swore that she somehow saw a toy robot and a small ghost in some sort of glaring conflict.

"Is this natural for them?"

"Yea, don't worry. This is how they get along." Himeko assured her like this glaring contest is the normal thing in the school.

"I see..."

"So, young one, what do you know about the mysterious underworld? Tell me." Yuuki stared at Shinako as if she's staring into her soul.

"Well, stories from the edo period has been passed down for generations in my family about odd unexplainable happenings during that time," Shinako started as all the occult members gather around her. "My father told me about how my ancestors had always been haunted while guarding the royal families, the plates breaking without anyone's notice, the mysterious footsteps and knockings on the walls and how some soldiers died mysteriously with their livers removed."

"Wow, Shinako sure has some stories to tell." Bossun commented listening to the samurai's stories, getting a little bit scared himself.

"That's creepy!" Himeko was shivering in fear.

"I bet there are logical explanations." Switch refuses to be in the supernatural nonsense.

"Tell us more!" The occult club members begged Shinako and she was getting a little bit uncomfortable with their constant pleading.

"W-Wait a minute."

"TELL US MORE!"

"AHHH!"

"That was a close one." Bossun said, finally stopping after getting out from the club. Yuuki and her friends were getting a little bit too clingy for Shinako's taste.

"I'm sure they're are just enthusiastic about what they believe. I don't blame them." Shinako said while looking through the list of clubs. She saw one in particular that caught her attention, not of interest but of confusion.

"What is a 'gesuling club'? I've never heard of such a thing."

Shinako didn't notice the looks on the Sket-Dan's face and she got confused when she looked and they suddenly huddled up.

"What should we do? Do we tell her?" Bossun asked nervously.

"No way! Shinako's will never be able to tolerate that!"

"Due to Shinako's maiden personality, if she were find out the club's nature, it would create disastrous results."

"What are you guys talking about? Is it something dirty?"

Speak of the devil!

Shinako noticed a short, girlish boy with an innocent smile on his face. She approached him to greet.

"I'm Kikuchi Shinako. It is pleasure to meet you." She bowed politely.

"Oh, so you're the new samurai student I've heard so much about."

"I suppose so..."

Sakura smiled innocently enough. "How many centimeters are you?"

"Um, I'm about 169cm." Shinako answered though confused. Why would he ask for her height?

"No, I meant your bust size."

"My...what?"

"Uh oh." The Sket-Dan thought.

"H-Hey, Shinako-chan let's continue our search." Himeko tried to drag Shinako as far away from the pervert as possible but Sakura just kept talking.

"Why are wearing that turtleneck? Are you trying to hide how big your boobs are? You're a pretty tall girl, if you wear a mini skirt I bet you look super sexy. When you practice, do you wear just bandages around your chest? I heard you were calling some guy 'master', are you into the master-slave thing?"

The innocent-faced pervert kept going on until Himeko started to feel an empowering aura and the Sket-Dan feared for the worst; it was the same aura they felt before Shinako unleashed her dangerous attacks.

Shinako turned to face Sakura and she looked up with her face red from either anger or embarrassment, no one is too sure.

"You...you..." She muttered angrily before giving a powerful roundhouse kick to Sakura's face, successfully kicking him through the window and out of the school building. It was so fast, nobody saw it until they heard Sakura crash through the window.

"PERVERT!"

"SHINAKO!"

"...I do not regret what I did." Shinako said, walking down the hallways with the Sket-Dan. No one would blame her.

"So, what's next?" Himeko asked.

"This is getting us nowhere! There's gotta be some club you would like." Bossun said, a bit exhausted from the crazy search.

"Well, I would like to become a doctor when I grow up. Is there any club that would help me with that?"

"A doctor, huh?" Bossun thought for a while and an ideal club came to him.

"Let's go."

"Huh?"

They headed to the infirmary but there seem to be a commotion. A girl was frantically pacing around outside the room. She was running her fingers through her short brown hair, her green eyes was filled with concern.

"What's wrong?"

The girl turned and she looked worried and a bit angry at the same time.

"There is an injured student in there and the school doctor isn't here right now."

"Can't you do it yourself?"

"I would but..."

A voice interrupted her and it was innocent in tone but it was so not, in anyway, pure.

"Shouldn't you girls be wearing hot nurse outfits? Like sexy short white dresses and stuff?"

The Sket-Dan and Shinako looked in and saw Sakura, injured but apparently, his mouth was still working fine.

"I can't get close to him without wanting to strangle him."

"I don't blame you."

Shinako stood at the door before taking a deep breath. she opened the door and walked in. Sakura noticed her walked in and smiled.

"Hey, it's you. You still didn't tell me about your bust siz-" Sakura was cut off when Shinako slapped a large band-aid over his mouth. Once that's done, she quickly got to work on dressing his wounds. Shinako was quick but she kept everything tidy and neat. After dressing his wounds, Shinako thought for a while before deciding to leave the band-aid on Sakura's mouth.

"That was really good." the girl praised Shinako to which Shinako blushed a bit.

"It was nothing,"

"It was my fault he got hurt in the first place."

"My name is Takada Harumi. Nice to meet you." Harumi greeted cheerfully.

"My name is Kikuchi Shinako. Likewise."

"Hey, how about joining the Health Committee? We could use someone like you."

"The Health Committee?" Harumi nodded.

"That's right. Basically, we're in charge of the school medical help and the members take turns helping out the school doctor during club hours. What do you say?"

Shinako smiled and nodded eagerly. "I would love to."

The two girls get acquainted as the Sket-Dan looked on in satisfaction.

"Well, we're done." Bossun sighed happily on a job well done.

"I feel kinda safer now since Shinako will joining the Health Committee." Himeko smiled.

"I agree." Switch spoke through his laptop.

"What on Earth happened?" Tsubaki questioned looking at the broken window in anger.

"The students told me that a student was angered and kicked someone out the window." Unyu explained, looking down at the reports.

"WHAT!?"

Roman: Shinako has finally found a club to join. It would have been nice it she had join my club. I would have gotten more screen time in the story.
