So much for updating this morning... Sorry guys! Hope this chapter makes up for it!


"I will bet money that the girls are planning our demise as of this very moment." Bao said, once the boys were all back in their dorm. While Bao sat on his bed, Tyler, Arashi, Chao Xin, and Aguma sat on the floor spread out in the room.

"Uh, why?" Tyler asked, from where he lay on the floor with his legs propped up on the wall. He was throwing a ball at the wall, catching it, and throwing it again.

"Because, Kuro's a nut when it comes to shopping for anything that's a formal event." Bao huffed, going through some books on his bed with a frown.

"Sounds like my type of girl!" Chao Xin grinned. Bao shook his head.

"She'd destroy you in a heartbeat." Bao said, "Trust me." His brow furrowed at whatever he was reading, "I know."

"What are you reading?" Arashi stood up and moved over to Bao, but the redhead shut his book, and pulled it away.

"Nothing interesting." Bao blew it off, "So, it's almost lunch. Let's go eat."


"Okay, do any of you guys know why the girls are looking us over like we're guiena pigs?" Dark Heart sat in the seat on Arashi's left, making the blue haired teen jump in surprise.

"Seriously?" Arashi glared, "You move and act like a cat, and I'm blind in this eye- how about a little warning next time!"

"Warning, I'm sitting next to you." Dark Heart said, sarcastically. Arashi growled.

"Why, you-"

"They're probably planning out our doom." Bao said, taking a vicious bite of his steak.

"Huh?" Dark Heart blinked.

"Hello boys!" Madonna said, as she and rest of the girls appeared, "How are you?"

"Uh... Fine?" Kakeru Tategami raised an eyebrow.

"Good, good!" Nefertiti chirped, "Say... Arashi... isn't that vest a little out of outdated?"

Arashi looked down at his red and black vest, "Um..."

"And Dark Heart, that trench coat..." Jasmine shook her head.

Dark Heart narrowed his eyes at her, "What about it?"

"Nero... that hair style is way out of season-" Ryoma started, but was cut off by Bao banging his head on the table, making everyone stare at him.

"I knew it, I told you, I predicted it- they're plotting our demise!" Bao threw his hands in the air.

"Brother dear, what are you going on about?" Kuro asked, coyly.

"You know exactly what I'm talking about, you little bi-"

"Chris!" Christina's squeal cut the redhead off.

Everyone watched as she became a maroon and gold blue and went on to tackle someone who had just walked through the cafeteria doors.

"Ow! CC, what the hell?!" A male voice exclaimed.

Christina was on her feet in a second, "Oi! Don't call me CC... cowboy."

"Yeah?" The blonde boy stood up, dusting his khaki jeans off, "Don't call me cowboy... Christie."

Violet eyes clashed with violet before Christina and the boy burst out laughing.

"Oh, it's nice to see you again, li'l sister." The boy chuckled.

"Little sister?!" Everyone else exclaimed.

"Christina, do you have something to share with the class?" Frieda asked, curiousity painting her tone.

Christina and the boy walked over, Christina smiling the whole way while the boy regarded them with wary eyes.

"Well, this is my brother, Chris Cadelle." Christina said, "Who I haven't seen in a few months, by the way..."

Chris shrugged at the glare he recieved from his sister, "Blading and then being asked to study at Dungeon Academy will do that to you."

"Dungeon Academy?!" Everyone exclaimed, Christina included.

"You didn't tell me you were studying at Dungeon!" Christina accused.

"And you didn't tell me you were going to Starfield!" Chris shot back.

"... Touche."

"Anyone else come with you?" Kuro asked, conversationally, even as she winced in pain and rubbed her temples.

"Uh, yeah. A couple of my buddies and I rode a plane out together. Lunisa Astaroth, Ranmaru Fukami, Dynamis Fukami, Toby Kyles, Zeo Abyss, Masamune Kadoya, and Nile Storm. There's still a few more to come, actually." Chris answered.

"Nile's here too?" Nefertiti asked.

"Let me guess- you're his sister, Nefertiti?" Chris raised an eyebrow. "Nile talks a lot about you."

"All good, I hope?"

"I... may not be at liberty to answer that question. And if your temper is as famed as it is, I might lose my head."

Nefertiti sighed, "Curse my brother."

"You have a brother too?" Arashi asked.

"Yeah." Nefertiti nodded.

"Jeez, how many people here have siblings?!" Tyler exclaimed.

Kuro, Bao, Mirajaye, Arashi, Kakeru, Ryuga, Nefertiti, Luke, Wales, Julian, Nero, Chris, Christina, and Chao Xin's hands all went up. Tyler sweatdropped.

"That was a bit of a rhetorical question..."

"Looks like this school will soon be chalk full of siblings." Ninel observed.

"Add the Garcia's in..." Chris mused to himself.

"Who?" Ryoma arched an eyebrow.

"Some people from Dungeon. They were asked to come here too. And they are bad people, is all I'm saying."


So... there was actually a bit of foreshadowing in this chapter. Especially if you go back over the last few chapters, you'll pick up on certain things that you can add together with this chapter and you might see something and start wondering what happens...!

Ooh, so tomorrow the girls drag- *gasp* No. I mustn't tell. However I'll give you a hint:

It's the one thing boys hate being dragged into when it comes to girls.

And yeah, there was no evil planning on anybody's part this chapter, but... Bao's acting suspicious, isn't he? And Kuro is acting just plain weird... Hehe... That should be cleared up towards Saturday's chapter, so until then...

Leave a review and tell me what you think! Ciao!
