Setsuna's Story
Asuna sighed, "Geez, it's been a long day. Setsuna, are you ever gonna go back to your own room?"
Setsuna looked up blankly at her, "Err... oh yeah, I guess this isn't my room, huh?"
She looked around, as if she had no idea where she was. She probably didn't, "So, uh... where is my room?"
Asuna sighed and rubbed her head, "Y-Yeah, that's right, you don't know."
"Then I'll escort you there," Konoka offered, "And how about Yuki-chan?"
"Oh, that's right, I haven't been assigned a dorm yet," Yuki recalled. Then her expression changed into a mischievous one, "Then I'll stay with Setsuna tonight."
Asuna chopped her on the head, "Wait a minute, don't get ahead of yourself. I can't leave you alone with Setsuna."
"Huh? But she has a roommate, right?" Yuki rebutted, "We wouldn't be alone."
"Ah, well," Asuna looked away for a second, "I can't exactly trust her, either."
The other three looked at her questionably. Asuna scratched her cheek, "Anyways, you're both staying here, alright? Now come on in."
"Now we can have a girls' night! Asuna, a girls' night! Let's have a girls' night!" Konoka squealed excitedly, hugging Setsuna and nearly choking her.
"Alright, alright," Asuna held back her refusals, letting her have her fun, "I'll make sure to leave Negi out, then."
Konoka made a swift move to let go out Setsuna and hurried to the kitchen, "I guess we should eat dinner before anything else."
"Agreeable," Asuna stated, "Setsuna, you can go take a bath first."
"Okay..." Setsuna said, "But..."
"What? Don't tell me you forgot how to bathe, too."
"Idiot, she only lost her memories, not her knowledge," Yuki remarked, sitting on the couch, eating Pocky.
"That's no good, Yuki-chan," Konoka scolded, "That'll spoil your dinner."
Asuna turned her attention to Setsuna, "Hmm, then what is it?"
"Oh, nothing, I just didn't know where the bathroom was," Setsuna replied feebly, making Asuna face palm. Of course it was that.
"Alright, look, it's right there," Asuna stated, gesturing to a door, "Go and take you bath, I'll get you some clothes."
"Alright, thank you, Asuna-san," Setsuna smiled, blushing. After she took her bath, it was now Yuki's turn to. While the disturbances were busy, Asuna decided to play around a bit with Setsuna.
"Come over here, Setsuna," Asuna sat on the couch and patted down next to her on the floor. Setsuna followed obediently and sat on the floor, looking up at Asuna curiously.
"So, Setsuna, I'll help you jog your memory."
"Okay, Asuna-san."
"First of all, you used to call me Master!"
"R-Really? I don't know about that..."
"You dare defy me!?
"No, I'm sorry, Master!" Setsuna put her head and arms on the floor, bowing for forgiveness. Asuna smirked evilly, having a feeling this was going to be thoroughly amusing. However, before she can say the next thought that popped in her brain, Konoka and Yuki both interrupted as they finished what they were doing.
"Dinner's ready!"
"Good thing, too! I was starvin'!" Yuki exclaimed, drooling as she sniffed the air, "Smells so delicious."
They all gathered around the dinner table, though Asuna wanted to mess with Setsuna's memories some more. But that was soon forgotten as she found random subjects to talk about while eating. Soon the topic of Setsuna arose.
"So, how do you think we cure it?" Konoka wondered, nibbling on her chopsticks and looking at Setsuna in a cutesy way that made her blush, "It would usually heal over time, right?"
"Or," Asuna started, pulling out a wooden bat from who knows where, "We can hit her in the head again!"
"Wait, Asuna!" Konoka shrieked as she once again failed to stop Asuna from violence. Wanting to stop the trouble, Yuki cut in calmly, "You know, I don't think its regular amnesia."
Asuna stopped attempting to pound Setsuna in the head and dropped her bat, "Hmm? What do you mean?"
"I don't know, but I sense some kind of magic spell cast on her," she explained, taking another bite from her fish, "I think it's..."
Yuki closed her eyes forcibly, trying to concentrate, "A spell for permanent memory loss...?"
"Wow, that's amazing... I-I mean, that's bad!" Asuna corrected herself, "Then what do we do? Do you know the spell to undo it?"
"Nope."
Asuna almost fell to the ground, "Wow, you're amazing one, being so blunt..."
"Wait," Yuki held up her chopsticks, "I'm sure there was a legendary mage. The oldest mage in the world, Kayo Mataki, who could cure or undo any spell."
"That's useful, now isn't it," Asuna put her fist onto her hand, "I know, let's go find her and make her cure Setsuna!"
"You're fast," Yuki said sarcastically, "It's not easy to find her, but I guess I'll do it for Setsuna!"
They gave each other high fives. Asuna pumped her fist, "Let's do it, partner!"
"I'm going, too!" Konoka suddenly butted in, startling Asuna for a second, "I wanna help."
"Sure, but I guess then, we'll have to take Setsuna with us, too."
"Speaking of Secchan, she kind of fainted when you dropped your bat on her head."
"What, I hit her?" Asuna glanced over at Setsuna to confirm it, "...Oops..."
Setsuna woke up and slowly sat up, "Where am I?"
It looked like she was in a desert. She looked around with a confused expression. She put her hand on her head, which was covered in bandages.
"Oh, Setsuna, you're finally awake!" Setsuna jumped as Yuki's popped up from the ground, "You've been asleep for days, I was getting worried."
"Wh-Where are we?"
"We're going to see a witch to see if she can heal you."
"WRONG!" Asuna jumped out of nowhere, barely missing hitting both of their heads, "A mage, not a witch!"
"No difference! Stop picking on me!"
"I'm not!"
While they argued, Konoka walked up from behind Asuna, "Secchan! Ah, don't worry about them, they were like this the whole trip."
"Oh, I see," Setsuna said, still confused about the whole journey. She noticed the new guard, Shou, was standing a few feet from them. When they made eye contact, Shou sneered at her and Setsuna smiled back unsurely.
"Anyways, calm down for a second, guys," Konoka walked in between Yuki and Asuna, "I think we're almost where we think she is."
Setsuna tried to collect herself, "A-Alright, what are we looking for anyway?"
Asuna thought about it, "I don't know, a castle maybe? I'm sure it's around here."
"You mean like the one over there, Master?" Setsuna asked, pointing behind her. The rest of them turned around, squinting their eyes to try to see through the dust.
"I-I think I see something."
Asuna put her arm around Setsuna's neck, "Then, let's go check it out!"
So they all took a long strode over, Konoka and Yuki leading the way. Asuna and Setsuna were behind them.
"Um, Master, can you please let go?" Setsuna asked, her face red.
"Now, now, didn't I say not to defy me!?" Asuna tightened her grip around her neck.
"Sorry Master. Oh, I also want to ask why I call you Master?"
"Um, well," Asuna paused, but couldn't think of anything, "I don't wanna... um... I'm comfortable saying that... so... yeah?"
"Huh? What do you mean by that, Master?" Setsuna questioned, suspicious, "What kind of person was I to call you that?"
Asuna looked away, "Hmm, I don't know how to answer that. I mean even though you lost your memories, I'm sure your body or soul or something still remembers or... something."
"My body?" Setsuna's face flushed, "Now that, I've been feeling weird around all the girls. I call you Master, too. Could I be a pervert or something?"
"Eh? I didn't mean that at all," Asuna remarked, thinking Setsuna's conclusion was a little hilarious. But she had to think of an excuse, "Um, you just feel weird because... uh... you accidentally took some aphrodisiac! Yeah, that's it. An magical aphrodisiac that lasts forever!"
"Endless aphrodisiac? Wow, that's bad, right?" Setsuna asked, feeling concerned as she felt around her body.
"Of course, but don't worry, we can ask the great mage, Kayo, to cure it!" Asuna told her to help her change mind. She still held Setsuna by the neck, nearly choking Setsuna by now, "Now, Alice, to wonderland!"
"W-Wait, Master, I, eck...!" Setsuna was pulled by Asuna forward as they finally reached their destination. Asuna knocked on the giant castle doors, "HELLO!? OPEN SESAME!"
"Shut you mouth, dimwit," Shou said, finally speaking up, "You're gonna make me deaf."
"Huh!? What you say to me!?" Asuna threatened to take out her bat, but she wasn't able to because as soon as she said it, the doors opened and steam came from behind them. Through it, they can see a silhouette of girl walking out to them, followed by maids.
"Hey! Are you Kayo Mataki!?" Asuna shouted out to them.
"Lower your voice, Asuna, it's not like their far away," Konoka stated, pulling Asuna back.
"Oh, it's you guys," the girl was out of the steam and could be seen clearly now.
"Tsukuyomi!?" Asuna rubbed her eyes, blinked, and looked again, "...Tsukuyomi!?"
"You don't have to repeat it," Tsukuyomi then noticed Setsuna, "Senpai! You came, too! I know I said the next time we meet, I'll show you how I've changed, but this is too sudden!"
Even though she said that, Tsukuyomi decided to cling onto Setsuna anyway. Setsuna blushed patted her head, not sure what to do.
Tsukuyomi looked up at her, "Hmm, Senpai, something wrong? You seem different."
Yuki and Asuna both shoved Tsukuyomi off Setsuna.
"Yeah, about that, Tsukuyomi," Asuna said, "Setsuna kind of lost her memory, so we've been trying to find a mage named Kayo Mataki."
"Lost her memory, I see," Tsukuyomi gave a sly grin and embraced Setsuna again, "Ahem... Senpai~! I'm Tsukuyomi, your dear lover! Oh, how I've missed your warmth!"
"M-My lover?" Setsuna blushed, pointing to herself questionably. For some reason, she was okay with it.
Yuki punched Tsukuyomi's head, "Don't get ahead of yourself!"
"Don't worry, Setsuna," Asuna stated, coming to her rescue, "This crazy psycho could never be your lover."
"Aw, you ruined the fun," Tsukuyomi giggled, "But back to Kayo, she's here."
"What!? She is!?"
"Yup she's living in my castle. I can take you to her if you let me huggle Senpai."
Asuna took out her bat, that was now covered in nails, "You're joking, right?"
Tsukuyomi retreated, laughing nervously, "Y-Yup, of course! I'm a new person now! I'll take you to her with no conditions."
"My, how generous you are," Asuna handed Setsuna over to Konoka, "Alright, let's go in, then."
To Kayo Mataki!
Another OC, hope that doesn't bother you. It's the last one, though.
Hope you enjoyed the chapter, and hope see ya again!
