Esme, Azura and Yui were heading towards the front gate of the school. Yui was looking forward to it and she felt very happy. When they reached the gate Yui was surprised to see that only Zane was there. Zane was leaning against the gate, reading.

Yui felt nervous when she saw the black limo waiting for them. Reiji was standing at next to it, waiting like a butler. He was looking at his watch.

Yui was about to call out for Zane to ask where Marie was when suddenly a group of rebellious looking boys approached Zane. Yui gasped and she noticed Azura and Esme frowning. But what Azura said made Yui feel a bit confused.

"Hey, how come Zane gets to be asked to go out with guys first!" Azura whined, "I'm supposed to be the prettiest one here!"

Yui didn't know what to say. Esme rolled her eyes, "Does that look like she's being asked out?" She pointed where Zane and the boys were. Zane was still wearing the sweet polite smile she always had but when one of the boys took her book away she looked annoyed and angry.

Azura shrugged, "Well, maybe Japanese boys have a different way of asking."

"Um, shouldn't we be helping her?" Yui stuttered. Surprisingly, Esme chuckled at Yui's words and said, "Oh, she can handle this herself a little longer. She doesn't need help yet."

They then all heard a howl of pain which caught everyone's attention, even Reiji, who was starting to get irritated. Esme laughed at the scene that laid five feet away from them. The boy who had taken away Zane's book was crouching in pain. His hands were located at his loins as Zane was picking up her book from the ground and casually brush the dirt off. Azura cringed, "Oh, that's must have hurt." Yui could guess where Zane had kicked.

"Told you she could handle it," said Esme as she nudged Yui in a friendly manner.

Esme continued laughing, "Zane may be the least athletic one of us, but she can defend herself from ordinary boys no problem."

The boys now looked a little nervous. But one of the boys still had the guts to yell at Zane and called her a "bitch." He reached for her shirt collar and raised his fist. Yui screamed and Esme and Azura both had a furious look and terrified look on their face. Reiji's eyes had narrowed, and the door of the limo opened.

Yui shut her eyes closed because she couldn't bare to see what might happen to Zane. She prepared herself to hear Zane's scream….but it didn't happen. Instead, she heard the grunts and yelps of the boys.

"Now, that will teach you to treat us girls with more respect." It was Marie's voice.

Yui opened her eyes and saw Marie standing in the middle of fallen boys. She was holding something that looked like some sort of red metal…..gun?! One of the boys stood up and staggered towards Marie. He had his fist raised.

Marie held up her 'gun' "Want some more?" she said in a joking voice. Zane went to Marie and shook her head, "Come on Marie, he's not worth it."

Marie dropped her playful tone. She now had a serious and stoic look on her face, "Oh, nobody gets aways with trying to molest any of my people." Her grey eyes looked as though it could shoot lighting bolts like thunder clouds.

Everyone was holding their breath. Even Laito, who was half out of the limo had stopped moving and was watching the scene. His mouth was slightly opened with awe. Azura broke the terrifying silence, "Marie~!" she cried as she jumped on her from behind. Azura gave her a bear hug. "Where were you? I was starting to get worried that you'd never come."

Marie pushed Azura away and tried to catch her breath from Azura's bear hug.

"I had something to do," she said as she inhaled deeply. Then she pinched Azura playfully on her arm, "You almost suffocated me there."

Azura pouted, "You almost electrocuted that guy with just the look in your eyes!"

Esme walked toward them with Yui and said, "I don't have a problem with that."

Yui eyed Marie's 'gun.' Marie noticed Yui looking uneasy.

"I'm really not going to shoot anyone, sorry if this makes you nervous," Marie apologised and glanced at the boys "Sorry about that commotion. I am quite protective of them, you see."

"Which makes her the best leader-," Azura stopped when Zane slapped her on her back. Esme gave Azura a hard look that said, 'Seriously, can't you keep your mouth shut?'.

"Ehh~, our little bitch's friends are quite amazing," said Laito as he walked over to the girls. He tipped his hat and gave them a flirtatious look, "It seems like I just lost my chance to the knight in shining armour."

"Language!" Hissed Esme and gave him a scornful look.

Marie gave him a mock curtsy. "Your chivalry has been accepted, o' mighty knight."

Laito gave her an amused smile. "Now, if you would lead us to your castle?" said Marie with a smirk.

Laito gestured to the limo, "The carriage is ready ladies."
