"What did that Vampire do to you to put that look on your face?" Misono
"He very nearly killed Uo right in front of me." Tohru
"So this is the Vampire who attacked your friends causing their memories to erased by Lilly." Misono
"Yeah. I'm actually very impressed that he was able to erase Hana's memories at all." Tohru
"What do you mean by that?" Misono
"Snow Lilly must be extremely powerful to be able to erase the memories of such a powerful psychic." Tohru
Upon hearing this Misono gets annoyed at Belkia, and makes a move to activate his weapon. Lilly moves next to the fence, and Belkia says.
"It was a stupid stupid move separating from your Servamp like that something might happen to you." Belkia
"Lilly only left my side because he had a good reason to. Watch closely Tohru this is one way I can use my power. If an enemy target comes in between Lilly and I this weapon activates." Misono
Misono's weapon is called The Execution Block of the Red Queen.
"Goodnight, and sweet dreams." Lilly
"What the hell is this thing?" Belkia
Tohru watches this part of the fight, and says.
"Misono's weapon is a chair." Tohru
"Nighty Night now." Lilly
Lilly completes the attack, Tohru watches as Belkia falls to the ground, and says.
"Uh! It looked like you chopped his head off." Tohru
"My power only destroys the mind not the body. To be honest with you I'm out of practice, but it's good to know that we can still put up a fight. Misono really wanted to show off for you Tohru." Lilly
"Be quiet Lilly." Misono
After Misono says this Belkia's fingers begin moving, and soon Belkia moves up behind Lilly. Belkia cuts off Lilly's leg, and says in a voice that isn't his.
"Hi there I'm the grand duke of skewering Belkia. Looks like something's wrong with your leg." ?
"Those strings; Whose moving you?" Lilly
"Lilly I think there has been someone else here all along, but the person was staying out of the fight until things went bad for them." Tohru
"What makes you say that Tohru?" Misono
"The strings moving Belkia are the same ones that tied me and Kuro up at the beginning of the fight." Tohru
"So there's someone else here pulling the strings." Lilly
They trace the strings back to the puppet master who says.
"It's so difficult to impersonate the strange way Belkia talks it's a problem." ?
Tohru and Misono try to figure out what to do with their enemy sitting on top of a building. Puppet Belkia manages to attack Misono while they are distracted. They look up at her, and hear her say.
"It's raining even thought the moon is out, but I thought you weren't going to be joining us here today." ?
"And why not Otogiri? I want in on the fun." Tsubaki
"It's a problem." Otogiri
"So Tohru Honda; I want to see the true shape of your despair. It would be interesting if you became the key." Tsubaki
As this conversation is going on Tohru manages to summon her broom, but they both wonder how they can use this against an enemy sitting on top of a building. The broom flies up into the air until Tohru finds herself on the same level as Otogiri and Tsubaki. Tohru lands next to Otogiri, and smacks her with the broom. Otogiri looks at her, and says.
"This is unexpected, a surprise that's a problem. What should we do now Tsubaki?" Otogiri
Otogiri looks to her side where Tsubaki was standing only to find him gone, and says.
"I guess he changed his mind. That's a problem." Otogiri
Otogiri sees how sad Tohru looks after attacking her, and is very confused by this. She looks at her, and says.
"Bad form showing remorse for your enemy; That's a real problem." Otogiri
She is about to attack her when a bullet embeds itself in the concrete next to her. It turns out to be another Servamp who fired the shot. His Eve gives an order saying.
"Go on JeJe; Get on with it." ?
JeJe lands on Otogiri's back, and is about to attack her when Belkia attacks. Otogiri backs up, and says.
"Looks like we're out numbered; That's a problem. Time to go home." Otogiri
Otogiri and Belkia take off before JeJe has a chance to attack. A car busts through the fence, and the driver gets out of the car saying.
"Is the arrogant brat dead?" driver
"Hi Do-Do."
"Misono's injured." pink-haired twins
"Thank goodness your here. He needs a doctor." Lilly
Tohru lands back on the ground next to her friends, and says.
"Misono." Tohru
"Are you ok Tohru?" Lilly
"Yeah I'm fine just take care of him. Don't worry about me." Tohru
Lilly nods at Tohru, and drives away. Tohru looks down at the ground of the alley, and says.
"He's hurt, and it's my fault." Tohru
"There's no reason for you to feel responsible for what happened." ?
As Misono is being driven to the hospital Lilly says.
"I'll say one thing. You have excellent timing." Lilly
"Well you know who contacted me. So I knew exactly where to go." Do-Do
"Of course; I see." Lilly
Back in the alley JeJe's Eve walks up to Tohru, and says.
"A person must take full responsibility for their own actions no matter what. I'm sure Misono knew exactly what he was getting into whenever he chose to get involved. Nice to meet you young lady. Beside me is the Servamp of Envy his name's Doubt-Doubt. You might have guessed I'm his Eve. Just a simple antique dealer travelling across the world." antique dealer
The antique dealer starts acting very weird using the doll he carries around. As she is watching this Tohru thinks 'Why is everyone I meet a weirdo?' While she is thinking this the antique dealer reacts to the weirded out look on her face by acting even more like a weirdo. Eve and Servamp then proceed to bicker. When they are finished bickering the antique dealer walks up to Kuro who had fallen asleep, picks him up, and hands him to Tohru. When she has him securely in her arms the antique dealer says.
"I don't think you have the stomach for something like this; Though you did come close. You know Tohru. I can teach you how to how to nullify a Servamp contract if your interested." antique dealer
"Absolutely not. I can no longer imagine what my life would be like without Kuro as my pet." Tohru
"I mean it's none of my business I know, but I figured you might be regretting your choices." antique dealer
"I will never ever regret taking Kuro in. So mind your own business." Tohru
"I just thought I could help you go back to being a regular student." antique dealer
Tohru glares at him for not dropping the subject. He just laughs, and walks away.
The next morning Tohru is just lying in her bed moping over how badly things went in the fight yesterday. Kuro opens the door, and says.
"Tohru shouldn't you be getting ready for school?" Kuro
"I know I'm just thinking about what happened yesterday." Tohru
"A lot of stuff happened yesterday. You are going to have to be more specific." Kuro
"The fight with Belkia and Otogiri." Tohru
"What about it?" Kuro
"I'm hurt and angry that Belkia was able to badly injure another one of my friends, and I wasn't able to do anything to stop it. I feel so weak, and useless." Tohru
"You are not weak or useless. You are the strongest person I know in all of the ways that actually matter. The time will come when you will be able to keep your friends safe. Just keep learning, and you'll get there." Kuro
Tohru thinks about everything that Kuro just said, says.
"You're right Kuro I just have to never give up. That makes me feel a lot better thanks Kuro. I'm going to get ready for school now, but I don't know if I'll have time to make any breakfast." Tohru
Kuro just smiles, and leaves the room so Tohru can get changed. Tohru does in fact manage to make breakfast, and get to school on time. While she, and her friends are helping to get ready for the school festival Tohru texts Misono to see if it would be alright to visit. Sakuya sees the phone in Tohru's hand, and asks.
"Where did you get the cool phone Tohru?" Sakuya
"A new friend of mine gave it to me. He got hurt, and is in the hospital. I was just texting him to see if it would be alright to visit him after school." Tohru
"That's cool. Would it be alright if we came with you to meet your friend?" Sakuya
"Yeah. I was actually going to invite him to the picnic this Saturday, but now that he's in the hospital that is no longer an option. So um thank you for offering to come with me." Tohru
Sakuya smiles at Tohru's babbling, and says.
"No problem we'll find you as soon as the school day ends, but don't you have to be helping with the food prep right about now." Sakuya
"You're right Sakuya. I'm going to be late so I'll see you guys after school." Tohru
"See you then; Bye Tohru." Sakuya
Tohru runs down the hall waving goodbye to her friends as she leaves.
At the hospital Misono receives Tohru's text. Lilly looks at the text, and says.
"Misono looks like Tohru texted you. She says she wants to come and visit." Lilly
"Tell her I'm dead." Misono
"How about I send her a map to the hospital instead?" Lilly
Lilly takes a picture of the map to the hospital, and sends it to Tohru. Misono over reacts, and says.
"You bastard. Ugh your my Servamp Lilly you can't just ignore my orders, and since when do you know how to work my phone?" Misono
Misono reads the text which says: 'Tohru Honda, Sorry for taking so long to see you. How are your injuries? Thanks for helping me fight last time. I'm really sorry for taking so long to thank you..'
Misono throws the phone back to Lilly, and says.
"My injuries weren't that bad. Tell her I'll get back to her later." Misono
"Consider it done." Lilly
Lilly sends the message while Misono says.
"I made such a big entrance, but I couldn't protect my friend. How am I supposed to face her now? Lilly I, I want to become stronger." Misono
After Misono says this Lilly gets a pensive look on his face, but snaps out of it when the text notification goes off. Lilly reads the text, and giggles at the contents. Lilly turns to face Misono, and says.
"It appears that you took to long to respond, because Tohru just texted you. She just arrived at the hospital, and is on her way to the room now." Lilly
"Alright open up the curtains, and then we wait for Tohru to get here." Misono
Lilly opens the curtains turning himself into a butterfly, and settles himself into Misono's hair.
Tohru and her friends arrive at Misono's room, and they go into the room to find Misono sitting up in bed with a pillow propped up behind his back. Tohru walks up to Misono's bed, and says.
"Hi Misono. I brought you a present to help you feel better." Tohru
Tohru hands Misono the Bento, Misono takes the box, and asks.
"What is it?" Misono
"A bento containing a selection of some of the most delicious dishes on the menu." Tohru
"Dishes on the menu?" Misono
"Yeah, our class is having a café for the school festival tomorrow, and Tohru was put in charge of the food." Sakuya
"Thank you for the thoughtful gift Tohru. Um who are these people with you?" Misono
"Oh right; Where are my manners? These are my friends, Sakuya Watanuki, Arisa Uotani, and Saki Hanagima. Everyone I would like to introduce you to my new friend Misono Arisuin." Tohru
"Nice to meet ya." Sakuya
"Any friend of Tohru's is a friend of mine." Uo
"A pleasure." Hana
Hana looks around the room, and says.
" There are very nice electric signals in this room. However one of the two of you has an electric signal that is familiar to me, but I can't seem to remember where I have encountered it." Hana
"Here we go Hana's electric report." Uo
Misono, Sakuya, and Tohru get a very nervous look on their faces. Fortunately this goes completely unnoticed by everybody else in the room. Hana remembers exactly where it was that she remembers encountering the familiar electric signal before, and says.
"I remember where I have encountered that electric signal. I sensed that electric signal when Arisa was in that car accident awhile back." Hana
"It's probably nothing to worry about Hana. It could just be a coincidence." Uo
"Your probably right Arisa. I won't worry about it any more." Hana
Misono, Sakuya, and Tohru all sigh inaudibly in relief that the potential problem was averted.
After they have visited Misono for awhile Hana and Uo leave, because they have important things they need to do today. Sakuya and Tohru stay behind to talk to Misono in private. Sakuya closes the curtains, and says.
"So you're the Eve of the Servamp that erased Hana and Uo's memories when they were attacked by Belkia." Sakuya
"Yeah, got a problem with that?" Misono
"Not really; In fact I would like to talk to your Servamp in person please." Sakuya
"Ok fine. Lilly show yourself." Misono
Snow Lilly flies out of Misono's hair, changes forms, and says.
"You wanted to speak with me." Lilly
"I want to thank you for keeping Hana and Uo safe." Sakuya
"That was not my intention unfortunately." Lilly
"In any case erasing their memories has kept them from getting involved; So that way they will not be in danger from Vampires." Sakuya
Lilly gets a soft look on his face, and says.
"Your welcome." Lilly
Sakuya nods at Lilly, and Tohru smiles happy that all of her friends are getting along so well. Misono changes the subject by saying.
"You weren't joking when you told me about Hanagima's power as a psychic. When she recognized Lilly's signature I was a little nervous that her power would override the Memory Wipe." Misono
"I was worried about that too, but luckily that didn't happen." Tohru
"I agree. We are very lucky that didn't happen." Sakuya
