And she ran off. Luckily he had been practising longer today. If he had not seen her shuffling around, he would have missed her as he walked past.
'That Echizen. He couldn't even pass on a message. But it was really no concern of his.'
After a few moment he got up and began to walk, out of school and then home.

'U-wah…he surprised me so much. He actually spoke to me. It made my heart pound so much to have the famous Seigaku captain talk to me.' Sakuno thought as she retrieved her bag and began her little journey home.
Since the sun had sunk long ago, the night sky was more clearer now. The stars had come out and it gave off such a nice aura, Sakuno couldn't help but hum as she walked. Nature made her extremely calm and happy. She decided to take a shortcut and made her way through the park. She was almost out until
"Oi lil cutie! Where are you off to at this hour?" some guys were leaning against a wall smoking called out as she came closer to them.
"Home." She answered.
"Aww why you going home? Hang with us. We'll show you some fun." Another guy with long hair said grinning. He reached out and grabbed her wrist.
"Please, let go of me." She stuttered.
"Now why would we want to do a thing like that right Taku?" said the guy to his friend. The guy called Taku advanced towards her and her eyes widened in fear. She leaned over and bit the guy with long hair. He yelped and she tried to make a fast get a way, but Taku grabbed her by the waist and lifted her off the ground.
"You little bitch!" Long hair said gritting his teeth and slapped her twice in the face, sending her flying to the ground.
"There now stop that. Let's not hurt her so bad we can't have fun with her. Stand guard for a while man." Taku said.
Sakuno was now sitting on the ground crying and holding her face from the blows. Taku knelt down on the ground in front of her. He grabbed her roughly by the shoulder and pushed her so she lay on the ground. It was then that Sakuno realised that she couldn't get out of this, and began struggling and tried to scream but no sound came out, and she could get some sound they slapped her.
'Someone help me please! Someone….anyone!' she clenched her eyes and prayed and she struggled.
"Get away from her now!"
Taku stopped attacking her and tore his head around to glare at the person who gave him a command.
"Who the hell are you?!" he growled.
"Get away from her now." The voice repeated with more authority and a sense of violence.
"Gen, where are you man! How'd you let this bastard get past you." Taku growled, until he realised that his friend lay sprawled on the ground clutching his stomach.
"Why you sonofabitch!" he got up and ran towards this mysterious person and began throwing punches, but was knocked to the ground. He got up and ran off with his friend Gen.
