Update time!


When Setsuna landed near Eva's cabin, she could already see Asuna waiting

"What the heck was that!" Asuna shouted, prodding her friend's chest roughly with her finger

"That was me looking out for Ojosama" Setsuna said sighing

Asuna made her trademark confused face

"Look Asuna, she doesn't need to feel guilty about this. I'm going to fix this my way"

Setsuna walked up and knocked on the door

When Eva came out, she was slightly confused herself

"What!" Eva barked before her eyes landed fully on the Hanyou

"Where's Chachamaru?" Asuna asked, voicing Setsuna's own curiosity

"She had some errands to run, not that it's any of your business" Eva quipped before she raised an eyebrow, checking out Setsuna's attire

"The hell happened to you birdbrain?" she said holding back a laugh as she motioned the two inside

Once Setsuna was sitting down, she produced the bottle from her pocket

"I had a…mishap with these chocolates. I was wondering if you could explain what the effects say"

Eva read it for a mere 2.5 seconds before widening her eyes and looking at Setsuna

"That would explain the attire… Well basically, to dumb it down enough for you two, birdbrain here has to confess her undying love to Konoka before the night is over" Eva said throwing the bottle at Setsuna

She caught it before it smacked her in the head

"Duh Eva, we know that. What we don't know is what happens due to her being half demon" Asuna said impatiently, rolling her eyes

Setsuna was in her own world it seemed, she had her head in her hands, her shoulders sagged defeated

Eva groaned, pinching the bridge of her nose

"And people wonder why your Baka red…" Eva said under her breath

"Basically, the potion inside the chocolate was made of light magic. Setsuna here is half dark magic, thanks to her heritage. Now, if she doesn't spill her heart out soon, she will most likely become an emotionless zombie. Not caring for anyone but herself" Eva said frowning slightly

"Oh, and her dark side will most likely try to claw its way out as an instinctual safety precaution to the light magic inside her" Eva seemed to add as an after thought

"A ZOMBIE?!" Asuna shouted, frantic

"You God. Damn. Idiot. That's what you take out of all I've said? Geez, it's a turn of phrase"

Asuna seemed to calm down after that. She sat down beside her dejected friend

"Well, then I guess it's clear what must happen" Asuna said patting her friends back

"I will not be confessing to anyone" Setsuna said in an icy tone

Asuna gave a startled jump

"You self-righteous moron. You know what will happen I assume? No doubt you can already feel the darkness moving about inside of you" Eva said annoyed

Setsuna moved with her inhuman speed over to the doorway

"I won't have Ojosama finding out about my… shameful feelings" she said clenching her jaw

"Even after all that has happened today, you still think she would reject you?" Asuna said folding her arms

"No. I think I now know she harbours some feeling for me, but, I will do what's best for her and leave" Setsuna said in a soft voice, her eyes full of sadness

"WHY? Leaving will devastate her Setsuna! Not to mention the physical pain you are sure to endure" Asuna snapped

"Look, your to childish to understand. There are bigger things at play here then some teenage crush! Ojosama is the most important person to the Magic Associations. The very same associations that look upon me with disgust! How do you expect her to live a happy and non judged life if she flaunts around with a cursed half Hanyou by her side?!" Setsuna snapped right back

Asuna seemed to ponder this over

"She's right. No doubt Konoka would be frowned upon" Eva interjected

Setsuna gave a sigh of relief. At least somebody understood the situation

"Plus, birdbrain seems too weak" she added, smirking at Setsuna

"Excuse me?"

"You heard me. One such as yourself couldn't dare to live happily with Konoka. Look how selfish you are, putting your own fears before Konoka's wishes" Eva said giving Setsuna a disapproving glare

"Huh?" Setsuna said, taking a step backwards out of shock

"You would rather her be miserable because your too scared of what some old farts in the association thinks? You disappoint me Setsuna. I thought more of you" Eva snapped

"But…But I do this for her! She shouldn't live with people looking down their noses at her" Setsuna said in a chocked tone

"Why would she care how people look at her? I think she's made it clear she only cares how you look at her" Asuna interjected

Setsuna stood silent, looking back and forth between the two girls in front of her

Then a tear made its way down her cheek, and she dropped to her knees

Asuna rushed over as Setsuna began to cry silently into her hands

"Yes, cry it out. The truth hurts" Eva said in an emotionless tone


I tried to focus on how Setsuna's reasoning's for not confessing held her back. Did Eva's words help? Or did they make Setsuna even more determined? I don't even know
