"All right, now that college decisions have been made, I can now assure you that the college process is officially over," said Ishigami as the Student Council celebrated that their seniors could take their long-awaited break. "It feels like a weight has been lifted off our shoulders," said Miko. "Well at least we'll all be going to the same college," said Kobachi. "Yeah, we`ll be together for a few years longer" said Ishigami.

"This calls for a celebration," said Moeha as she got up. "Didn't we celebrate a few days ago?" said Ishigami as he looked up from the document he was working on. "Yeah, but there's no limit to having fun," Moeha said cheerfully. "You just want me to treat you guys again don't you?" said Ishigami. "No I`m just saying we should have more dinners together since you and Miko-chan are going to be graduating soon," said Moeha.

"That`s gonna be a no from me," said Ishigami as he turned back to the document that he was working on. "I guess gluttony must run in the Fujiwara family," Ishigami thought as it seemed most of the daughters of the Fujiwara family were into getting free food from others.

Two weeks later

"The documents just don't stop," said Ishigami as he was working on a big stack of documents. "Maybe if you complain less, it'll be done quicker," said Miko as Ishigami`s complaining seemed to annoy her. "Hey how's everyone doing?" said a familiar duo as the door opened. "Miyuki, Kaguya," said Miko as the rest of the Student Council stopped what they were doing and greeted their former Student Council members.

"Hey what are you two doing back here? It's not summer yet" said Ishigami as it seemed weird as summer break hadn't yet started for college students in America. "Well, the truth is..." Miyuki started to say before Kaguya cut him off. "We were here to attend my father's funeral, he passed away a week ago," said Kaguya to which Miko had to fight the urge to not hit Ishigami in the face.

"Oh I see, sorry for jumping to conclusions," said Ishigami. "It's alright, you couldn`t have guessed that was the case," said Miyuki. "Miyuki, can you go with Ishigami to get drinks for us?" said Kaguya. "No problem, why don't we take a walk? It seems that you could use one" said Miyuki to which Ishigami got up from his seat and the two walked out of the room.

"I see, so you chose Tokyo University instead of Kyushu," said Miyuki as they sat on a bench outside. "Yeah, I wanted to follow Chika so that we could catch up, but I decided that family might be more important than my personal wants," said Ishigami. "That's understandable, family always comes first," said Miyuki. "So what's going to happen to the Shinomiya family?" Ishigami asked as the head of a family dying in a major family like the Shinomiya family could cause major changes.

"Well, they need to decide whos going to be the successor, there's a possibility that Kaguya might become head of the family after she finishes college" Miyuki explained. "That's good to hear, it would be nice if Kaguya becomes head of the family," said Ishigami. "How are things going for you?" Miyuki asked Ishigami. "Good, just gotta finish the rest of my senior year" Ishigami replied. "You're almost at the finish line, finish strong," said Miyuki as he handed some drinks to Ishigami before they walked back to the Student Council room.

"Hey since we're all here, why don't we all have dinner together," said Kei as Ishigami and Miyuki reentered the Student Council room. "That sounds like a plan, how much work do you still have left?" Kaguya asked. "Yay, so we`re going to be eating out after all" Moeha said cheerfully to which Ishigami sighed. "Just a couple more documents I need to check and approve" Ishigami replied. "Alright, why don't we help you out? Dinner on us tonight," said Miyuki. "Alright if you insist, I'll welcome the extra help," said Ishigami as he handed Miyuki some documents as the Student Council got some much-needed help from their alumni.

Royal Host

"To the success of our soon-to-be graduating seniors," said Miyuki as he raised his glass. "Cheers," said everyone as they tapped glasses. "It's nice to hang out with good friends once in a while," said Kaguya. "Unless they`re the ones making you pay for them," said Ishigami to which everyone laughed. "So any upcoming plans?" Kaguya asked. "Nothing much, just graduation and preparation for college" Ishigami replied.

"You`ve been quiet so far, what`s on your mind?" Kobachi asked as she noticed that Miko had been largely quiet the entire time. "Nothing, it`s just social gatherings aren`t really my thing," said Miko as she took a sip of her drink. "So most of you will be going to Tokyo University?" Miyuki asked which snapped Miko back. "That`s right, I guess we won`t have to part ways after all," said Miko as she glanced at Ishigami.

"You sound like you`re not too thrilled with me going to the same college as you," said Ishigami. "Now hold on, I didn`t say that, it`s just knowing that you`ll always be able to one-up me since you were the Student Council president and now we`re going to the same college," said Miko. "Hey come on, don`t think that way, being Student Council president doesn`t mean anything in college," said Ishigami. "He`s right, even in America we`re nothing special there, we`re just normal college students despite being a Student Council president and a daughter of a prestigious family," said Miyuki.

"College isn`t all about work and studying, you can still have fun while working hard," said Kaguya. "So that means I don`t have to be a good girl in college?" Miko asked. "I wouldn`t say that, take Ishigami for example, he was the Student Council president and still managed to have fun while handling a big responsibility," said Kaguya.

"I wouldn`t say I was able to have all the fun I wanted, the point is to just relax and work hard at the same time," said Ishigami. "He`s right you know, this is a chance to have fun that we missed out on due to being in the Disciplinary Committee," said Kobachi. "Maybe you`re right, there are still a lot of things I want to try out," said Miko. "Alright, we`re paying for everyone tonight, does anyone else want to order anything else?" Miyuki asked to which Miko and Moeha raised their hands to which Ishigami had to fight the urge to not facepalm himself.

Later

"See you guys soon," said Miyuki as the group went their separate ways. "Ishigami? Can you give me a ride home?" Miko asked as they were alone. "Sure hop on," said Ishigami as he handed her a helmet. "Take it easy on the road, we just ate not too long ago," said Miko as Ishigami started his bike up. "Yeah, yeah, hold tight," said Ishigami as they drove off.

"Thanks for dropping me off," said Miko as she got off the bike. "Yeah no worries," said Ishigami as he took back his helmet. "I was thinking if I needed a driver to get me somewhere, would you be my personal driver?" Miko asked. "Let me think about it," said Ishigami as he didn`t have a clear answer. "Okay let me know when you`re free," said Miko as she went into her apartment." I might need to start asking for some form of payment for taking Miko home, gas isn't exactly cheap nowadays," Ishigami thought as they rode down the street.

Two days later

"Guess I have a rare day to myself," Ishigami thought as he walked through the metropolitan area as he had a rare day to himself as everyone else seemed to have some business to handle today. "Maybe I'll go to the arcade or the mall," Ishigami thought as he tried to figure out what he would do. "It's been a while," said an all too familiar voice. "Ootomo, what do you want? You here to lecture me on what woman I can't date?" Ishigami asked sarcastically.

"Very funny, there's something I need your help with," said Ootomo. "Why should I help you? You don't have a good track record of telling the truth" Ishigami pointed out. "Just hear me out," said Ootomo to which Ishigami reluctantly agreed to hear her out.

"So what do you want?" Ishigami asked as they sat at a cafe to talk. "You remember Ogino right?" Ootomo asked. "Your ex who assist you in ruining my middle school life, yeah I remember him well" Ishigami replied sarcastically. "Yes, he's back in Tokyo, when I heard he came back, I tried to make up with him hoping he had changed his ways," said Ootomo. "And how did that turn out?" Ishigami asked. "Turns out he's a womanizer that tried to make advances on me even though I found out his true nature, my parents walked in on him trying to make a sexual advance on me, you can guess the rest," said Ootomo as she sipped her tea. "I see, he's in prison now, so what's the problem?" Ishigami asked as he took a sip of his drink.

Well that bastard is convinced that someone will save him despite his heinous acts, but after hearing everything that he's done, I want you to break his spirit, you're the only person he's ever been scared of," said Ootomo to which Ishigami took a moment to think.

"I don't like working with my former enemies, but if it means I can stick to that piece of shit for everything he put me through, I'm in," said Ishigami as getting revenge was something he hadn't crossed off his list yet. "Alright, he's currently booked in Tokyo prison for sexual assault and possible extortion charges" Ootomo explained. "Alright, let's go get some revenge," said Ishigami as they plotted for revenge.

Tokyo Prison

"Prisoner 169, you have a visitor," said a prison guard as a black-haired male prisoner walked out of the cell. "Wonder who it could be, hopefully they're here to bail me out," said the prisoner as he walked up to the visitor's booth and picked up the phone. "Hello, it's been a while," said Ishigami as he picked up the phone. "Ishigami, what the hell are you doing here?" Ogino asked as he realized the person across him was the very person who almost had his life destroyed by his actions. "I had heard that you were back in Tokyo, but I didn't expect this," said Ishigami mocking Ogino.

"Screw you, who told this?" Ogino asked seeming enraged that the person he thought he screwed over completely was talking freely to him. "I did, guess you don`t know me as well as you think," said Ootomo as she walked into the room as well. "You bitch! You told him everything?" said Ogino as he got up from his seat. "You haven't changed one bit, you're still the same womanizer from middle school," said Ishigami which seemed to shut Ogino up.

"Does everyone still hate you as they did in middle school?" Ogino asked. "Afraid not, your plan to make them hate me failed," said Ishigami as he pulled out the gold lapel from his pocket. "That lapel, don't tell me," said Ogino. "That's right, I became the Student Council president at Shuchiin, I'm one of the most respected figures at Shuch`iin Academy," said Ishigami. "That's not possible, how could someone like you become the Student Council president?" said Ogino. "It's simple, I just wasn`t a piece of crap like you, that's all it took," said Ishigami.

"Well the girls still hate you don't they, you're just a stalker at heart anyways," said Ogino to which Ishigami chuckled. "Oh, how wrong you are," said Ishigami as he pulled out his phone. "What, you're dating the Fujiwara's daughter?" Ogino asked in disbelief as he saw a picture of him and Chika together. "That's right," said Ishigami. "There's no way, you must have blackmailed or paid her," said Ogino. "No, I was a decent human being unlike you who used underhanded tactics," said Ishigami.

"That doesn't matter, someone will come to get me out, just you watch," Ogino said boldly. "Yeah that's not happening, it seems that your thick skull can`t process that," said Ishigami. "What makes you say that?" Ogino asked. "Well for starters, your past activities have all been exposed to the public, even if you get out, there are plenty of parents who will happily wait in line to rip you into pieces. That's not even factoring in your current charges, extortion, and sexual assault, you're finished Ogino," said Ishigami to which it seemed that Ogino realized the full picture of his situation.

"You're the Student Council president right? Help me out please, if you do I'll leave the country and never bother anyone again" said Ogino as he pleaded for mercy to which Ishigami chuckled as he tried not to laugh.

"Me? Help you? After all the shit you put me through in middle school, you're begging me for help?" Ishigami asked in disbelief. "Please, I won't survive in prison" Ogino begged, but Ishigami wasn't budging. "And now you're going to get your dues, do you know how much I suffered because of you, I was made to be an outcast because of your cowardly actions, my family suffered because of you, this is justice for everyone you've screwed over, have fun in prison," said Ishigami with a cold tone.

"Wait Ishigami, please come back!" Ogino begged once again to which Ishigami and Ootomo walked away from the room as the prison guards dragged a screaming Ogino back into his cell.

Karma`s a bitch huh?

"Satisfied?" Ishigami asked Ootomo as they walked out of the prison. "You bet I am, that bastard will never screw with another woman ever again," said Ootomo as she stretched herself. "Good riddance, why did he decide to come back anyways?" said Ishigami. "He probably thought that laying low for a few years might make people forget about him," said Ootomo. "Whatever, I'm glad that asshole finally got put in his place," said Ishigami.

"Listen I know I'm years late for this, but I'm sorry for everything I put you through, it must have been so tough on you," said Ootomo as she finally apologized for what happened in middle school to which Ishigami sighed. "I suppose it's late, but better than never," said Ishigami as it seemed pointless to have a grudge anymore following the events that had just occured. "Good luck out there, try not to be careless with men," said Ishigami. "I will, farewell Ishigami," said Ootomo as she walked off into the sunset. "Well I guess what they say is true, revenge is a dish served cold" Ishigami thought as he went about the rest of his day.

Meanwhile at the Shinomiya Household

"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Miyuki asked as they walked into the Shinomiya residence. "It`ll be fine, I want you to come for moral support," said Kaguya as she held Miyuki`s hand. "Lady Kaguya, welcome back, your boyfriend will have to wait until the meeting is over since this is family business," said the butler as he bowed toward them. "Alright, I`ll wait outside for you," said Miyuki to which Kaguya nodded as she entered the meeting room with Hayasaka.

"There you are, you`re late," said Oko as Kaguya walked up to her seat in the meeting. "Incorrect, just because everyone is here does not mean the meeting has started yet, we will only start when everyone is here" Kaguya replied as she took her seat with her brothers to which Oko was about to say something back, but was stopped by Seiryu. "Save it for after the meeting, now`s not the time," said Seiryu to which Oko took his seat.

"All right, now that the matter of seeing our father off has been done, let us move on to the main matter, who will be the new successor of our family," said Oko as the Shinomiya family meeting was now in session. "We now have to see what our old man left in his will," said Un`yo as he lit his cigar. "Whoever Gan`an chooses will have the full power of the Shinomiya family," said Seiryu.

"Is the will ready?" Kaguya asked as a male Shinomiya member stood up from his seat and walked up to the four Shinomiya siblings. "Yes, as per tradition, the oldest child is the one to read the will," said a male member as he placed the box with the will in front of Oko. "All right, let's see what the fate of the Shinomiya family will be," said Oko as he took the will and started to read it.

My last order of business before I pass away is to give ownership of Shinomiya Zaibtsu to my daughter Kaguya Shinomiya, she will be the new head of the Shinomiya family. Throughout my life I had largely ignored Kaguya, but deep down I could see something in her that set her apart from the rest of the family. My dearest Nao, this is the last wish that I can grant you before I join you in the afterlife.

Gan'an Shinomiya

"What? Our father left ownership of the Shinomiya group in Kaguya's hands" Oko said in shock as the entire room started talking amongst each other as this was unexpected to most of them. "But how? There were no signs that indicated this" said Seiryu as everyone seemed shocked by Gan`an`s decree. "That old man, so he did have one last trick up his sleeve," Un`yo thought unsurprised as he took the cigar that he was smoking away from his mouth. "Father, in the end, he did care about me," said Kaguya as she started to tear up as she was the chosen leader by her father.

"I can't accept this! I should be the head since I'm the oldest in the family, how could our father make a woman the head of our family?!" Oko shouted to which Hayasaka got up ready to defend Kaguya, but luckily Un'yo put his hand up. "Listen, I`m not too thrilled with the decision, but this was our Father`s choice, you can complain all you want, but that won`t change what Father has declared," said Un'yo to which Oko grumbled as he sat down knowing that protesting wouldn`t do much.

"Lady Kaguya, now that you have ownership, what do you plan to do now?" the male member asked as the attention was now on her to which Kaguya rose from her seat as the new head of the family. "I have decided to allow an equal split of power amongst the four of us. I plan to graduate from Stanford University before I become the head of the family, afterward we will decide the balance of powers for the foreseeable future, however I will still oversee the actions of the Shinomiya family, any objections?" said Kaguya which caused a buzz amongst those in the meeting.

"25 percent for all of us, not what I had in mind, but could be worse," Un`yo thought. "I have no objections to this offer," said Un`yo as he was the first brother to respond. "I will accept the terms for now, but don't even think that I'm going away without a fight," said Oko as he walked out of the meeting room. "Should we do something about that?" Un`yo asked as there were only three of them left in the room. "Let him be, someone will fill him in later, he`s not used to having things not go in his favor," said Kaguya.

"If you're offering an equal split in power for the time being, I have no reason to object," said Seiryu as it seemed that there were no major disagreements to the proposal. "Alright Lady Kaguya, the Shinomiya family is in your hands, you are the new head of the Shinomiya family," said a male member as the rest of the members rose and bowed to Kaguya. "Thank you, let`s continue with the meeting," said Kaguya as there was still work to be done.

"Alright, meeting dismissed," said Kaguya as everyone filed out of the room as the meeting was now over. "What happened? Who`s the new head of the Shinomiya family?" Miyuki asked as he entered the meeting room as everyone else had left the meeting. "It`s a miracle, Gan`an did have a heart after all, Lady Kaguya is the new head of the Shinomiya family," said Hayasaka as Kaguya walked up to Miyuki. "That`s great, I`m glad everything worked out," said Miyuki as the two hugged each other before sharing a kiss together.

Afterward

"Are you sure about your decision?" Miyuki asked as they walked out of the Shinomiya residence. "Yes, This is the only way to ensure that our time at Stanford is drama free, if I had all the power, I would have to drop out and stay in Tokyo," said Kaguya. "You're not worried about your brothers potentially seizing power from you due to your absence?" Miyuki asked to which Kaguya pulled out a paper from a manila envelope.

"The will gives me immunity to any attempts to steal power, even if they try, most of the family has pledged their loyalty to me," said Kaguya as it was decided that Kaguya would keep the will with her. "I see, in the end, you won your own battle, you`ve changed so much," said Miyuki. "I know, regardless of the outcome of today's events, as long as you're with me, it'll be fine," said Kaguya as she held Miyuki's hand. "I'm lucky to have a girlfriend like you," said Miyuki as they walked back to the hotel they were staying at temporarily as they had to fly back to America as their business in Japan was done.

May

"What? Kaguya is the new head of the Shinomiya family?" Ishigami asked as he was in the middle of a phone call with Miyuki. "Yeah, seems things are going to get hectic now," said Miyuki. "I hope things don`t get too crazy now, you`re practically a celebrity now," said Ishigami. "We`ll manage somehow, don`t worry" Miyuki reassured. "Give Kaguya my best, I`ll see you at the graduation soon, take care of yourselves," said Ishigami as he ended the phone call. "Well now I`m friends with the future head of the Shinomiya family, sounds about right," Ishigami thought as he realized that he now had friends with a scary amount of power.

"Another month and I'll no longer be a high schooler," Ishigami thought as he looked out the window to clear his mind. "Hey the principal said he wanted to see you, head over when you have the time," said Miko as she entered the Student Council room. "Oh okay, wonder what that could be about," Ishigami thought as he got up from his seat and left the Student Council room.

"Principal, you wanted to see me?" Ishigami asked as he entered the principal's office. "Yes, have a seat Ishigami," said the principal. "Is everything okay?" Ishigami asked as he took a seat. "I wanted to thank you for your commitment to being Shuchiin Academy's Student Council president for the last 2 years, I know your path here has been filled with many ups and downs, but you preserved in the end with your determination. I have no doubt that you will excel at Tokyo University," said Adolphe as he extended his hand out.

"The pleasure was all mine, thank you for the opportunity," said Ishigami as he returned the handshake. "All that's left is graduation and your journey will come to a close," said Adolphe. "Yes, it's been quite a journey," said Ishigami. "I hope to see a great graduation from you, you may go," said Adolphe. "Don't worry, I'll make sure it happens" said Ishigami as he bowed before leaving the office.

"Well, it's been interesting being the Student Council president, but as they say, the show must go on, wonder who will be the next president?" Ishigami thought as graduation was approaching marking the end of his high school life.

Results of Battle: Ishigami wins as he gets some long overdue redemption.
