Classroom 2B was filled with idle chatter. The room was evenly split between boys and girls. The girls were grouped together in packs talking in low voices with the occasionally whining, while the guys were spread out pretending not to snicker as they waited casually for the girls to break apart and approach them with boxes of chocolate.
Today was Valentine's day, a very festive romantic day. Kudara Remi hated to be a killjoy of the festivities and she also hated to speak in front of the class but orders were orders.
"Excuse me everyone I have announcement to make." She spoke.
Her voice wasn't loud enough for everyone to hear over the loud whispering and giggling. She tried again.
"HELLO!" She shouted.
The room fell silent this time, all eyes were on her, standing on the podium. This was progress, good progress she hoped. She clutched the paper in hand it was the morning bulletin given by the higher ups for her to announce. It was probably one of the last important duties she had as a class representative.
"Um excuse I'll only take up a little of you're time, just want to say Happy Valentines Day um, and I'd like to announce now that vandalism on any property in the school building is prohibited. Um, if you or you know someone who has vandalized the school in ay way, please notify any Disciplinary Committee. Um, this has been a message from the desk of Disciplinary Chairman Hibari Kyoya."
She then bowed and quickly returned to her seat. The mood was definitely different from the beginning. She felt like such a killjoy. The students resumed their Valentine's day game plan and the announcement was forgotten. Two days ago, it was discovered there had been vandalism on the walls of the girl's bathroom. The Chairman had ordered the committee members to find the culprits responsible, but the week was almost up and so far there were no leads found. Tetsu was trying to balance both the investigation and other duties as well. The stress was building up for him, so Kudara agreed to help. She was asked to stake out the girls' bathroom in hopes that she could identify somebody, anybody who could be responsible for all the writing on the walls. Kudara walked into the bathroom and looked at the wall inside the third stall. It was decorated with hundreds of scribbles and cross outs. Some of it was written pen, markers, lipstick, and even scratched out with something sharp to peel paint. Wow.
Mochida Hot or Not?

Gokudera-kun?
So cool! so smart
He'd make a great husband someday!
I wish I was in the same class as him, if I only I was closer.
Kyaa I can't help it I want to touch his hair.
Yamamot0-kun is the sweetest guy!
He's so strong too!
I call dibs on him!
No he's mine.
Gokudara & Yammamoto should be together 3
YES
Totally!
AGREE 100% on BOARD.
It was all just a bunch of comments. Anyone could have written these, Kudara thought. It seemed like every person who walked into this stall just added another comment to the previous. She actually expected there was some actual profanity written on the wall, the way the committee stressed how disrespectful and offensive the writing was. It wasn't pretty to see this when you walk into the stall, but it wasn't necessarily harming anybody either. Kudara thought it over, the Chairman just wants those responsible to be punished. She decided to figure out how to make that possible to find the certain culprits or at least stop them from writing on the walls, she then came up with an idea. She took out a pen and started to write on the wall as well. Perhaps this will be the only way to get the message out to people. It seemed better than saying the morning announcements in home room, Kudara thought. Just when she was about done writing, she could hear the door open and see from below three girls walk in.
"Can you believe our class rep with that announcement?" the first girl asked.
"She wants us to snitch and turn against each other for writing on the walls." said the second girl.
"Why do we have to do that? None of us did nothing wrong." asked the third girl.
The first girl huffed, "Honestly, why does she have to go around and tell us what to do it's not like she ever does anything-
Kudara Remi open the door, she had enough to hear. The three girls stared momentarily shocked but then started laughing. She recognized their faces but not their names, well she can look their names up later in the roster.
"Oh so you were in there this whole time Prez?" The first one asked.
"Yes I am but please do continue with conversation." She replied coldly.
Honestly if something bothered them so much, they should say it to her face instead of whining behind her back.
"Are we in any trouble?"
"We didn't do anything Prez please don't tell the Chairman!" The second girl mocked.
Kudara didn't say anything back and stormed out, the laughter increased. Not the best way to end a confrontation halfway, but she had very good reason why she left. She had a plan set in motion, and she was sure it was going to work.
"Did you get the names of all the girls Kudara-san?" Kusakabe Tetsuya asked.
"Yes, I'll tell you while I was in the bathroom for majority of my lunch hour three girls walked in their names are in the list." Kudara replied she handed him the papers.
Tetsu smiled "Excellent I knew you could, wait Kudara these are the names of every girl in each homeroom!" Tetsu cried.
"Yes, every girl in this school is responsible for the vandalism, including myself." Kudara answered.
"What are you doing Remi? I can't hand this into the Chairman!" Tetsu exclaimed clearly distressed. He looked confused and continue to push the file away for her to take it back.
Kudara pushed the folder toward him. "Yes, you will hand it in, because this is what the Chairman wanted all along. A justified punishment towards all those responsible. Every girl enrolled in this school uses that bathroom. Every girl who walked in each day to that stall, saw the writing but didn't do anything. I think we as whole, we should be held responsible just as much like the girls who did do the writing in the first place. We're all to blame, it's as simple as that. Now, hand it in to him."
Tetsu warily took the file, he didn't want to doubt his friend's word but he didn't want to get chew out by the Chairman either.
"What makes you think the offense won't be repeated?" Tetsu questioned.
Kudara smiled. "Don't worry, they won't the stall is now cursed."
"Pardon?"
"I-uh, Oh Yuka and I have made some chocolate for you, so come back for it later ok?" Kudara asked.
Tetsu looked confused, and frowned. Kudara had been meaning to ask one thing for awhile perhaps the time should be now. "Are you avoiding Yuka by the way? She says you haven't returned any of her calls."
"That's something private I wish to discuss with you at a later date." Tetsu replied.
"I'll just hand this into Hibari-san now, and I'll see you later. U-Until then," He bowed and left the room.
"Hm…Good."
"Y-Yes?" Kusakabae asked.
He had just reported everything Remi had told him and he was couldn't believe his ears of what Hibari-san said.
"Make another announcement, all girls in the school have to take over the cleaning duties."
"Eh? Ok."
"Make sure every girl is in attendance for their punishment." Hibari added.
"Yes Hibari-san. Um-
"Hand me the picture." He ordered.
"Yes Hibari-san this is the most recent photo The Vice president took earlier today."
Hibari looked over the photo and Kusakabe tried not to stare for too long, but he could have swore he noticed a small grin on Hibari-san's face.
He finally notice that he overstayed his welcome, before Kusakabae could exit Hibari spoke once more.
"Kusakabae, make sure Kudara Remi…submits the damage report."
"Y-Yes Hiabri-san."

"To anyone who writes/reads this wall you' have now been cursed by the dead student of Fuji Mori of class 3B who never confessed to her first love and died a virgin. You will receive 7 years of unrelentless bad luck for desecrating the stall of Fuji Mori. The only way to undo the curse is to confess to your crush in the next 24 hours. Good luck."
Anyone could have written that. However Kudara Remi your handwriting is already distinguishable. Make sure all writings are properly washed off and do not vandalize the walls again.
-Disciplinary Chairman Hibari Kyoya
Meanwhile some place else….
"Gokudera-san I just want to let you know I liked you for so long please go out with me!"
"Yamamoto sempai I loved you the first day you helped me out in P.E. I only want to be by your side!"
"What's with all these confessions from these random girls?" Gokudera asked he was annoyed.
A massive amount of girls had started to come up to him before he even left his seat to go home. He hated to be preoccupied with such wasteful things that didn't involve the mafia and it was starting to get on her nerves. Every single time he spatted on them to "GET LOST." More and more girls just started coming, maybe even multiplying. It was a terrifying sight.
"Mah well it is Valentine's day after all…" Yamamoto said laughing.
He didn't really mind the crowds of girls coming up to him, but then again he couldn't say no to them either.
"I will DIE if you're not by my side!"
"No me I'd die for you, so please accept my confession!"
"Hey no need to be drastic." Yamamoto answered trying to soothe them, but it only made things worse.
"Fuji Mori has cursed us, she cursed us so we can be stronger in love!"
Gokudera was getting anxious he tried to push his way out of the crowd "These chicks are all crazy!"
Tsuna was hesitant to exit the classroom there were so many girls blocking the entrance.
"Eto I'll see you guys I'm going to take my leave…"
"Ah Tenth wait up I'm coming!"
"Kyyaaa don't leave stay here with Yammamoto!"
"Piss off all of you!" Gokudera shouted.
Tsuna walked away from the noisy homeroom, and hoped that Kyoko-chan will give him chocolates today.
