nana sho

the night

After yesterday, Kawaru was sleeping from then. Kawaru woke up, he felt like he was being crushed both sides. There were two extra arms that were strapped on to him. When his eyes came to focus, he saw Yuki in front of him and when he turned his head back Yuki was behind him. "They really weren't kiddin'…" Kawaru looked nervous and embarrassed. He wanted to get up, but Maki was holding him too tight.

"Um, Maki… Wake up please…" Kawaru asked softly. It was 4 A.M. in the morning. Maki held Kawaru even tighter. "Can't breathe," Kawaru choked. "Sighs," Kawaru sighed. Kawaru gripped Maki's hand, and slowly pulled it apart from his body. When he did he slowly moved over Yuki. "Whew, that was close… This is so troublesome…" Kawaru sighed again. "I've been sleeping for so long, my body is aching," Kawaru thought. He changed into his school uniform, and he went to take a walk.

He went walking to the school. "I wonder was Rin-Chan hurt… I couldn't stop my body, when that happened… Now I know what my dream meant. The one girl in that dream was Rin. The other two guys are still unknown," Kawaru thought.

"I wish I was actually good at martial arts, fighting, anything… My spirit power seemed to have increased, but I can't do magic…" While Kawaru walked towards the school, he heard some noise. It was Rin training her nodachi techniques. Kawaru sat on the floor watching her train. "I wonder why Rin-Chan always wears those Hakama's… I wish I could be like her. She's always at this garden… I wonder if she likes the view here, I do… I also wonder is she tired of training, she sweating a lot," Kawaru continued to watch her.

Rin's thoughts. I have to kill him. I have to kill him. I owe him one, don't I? Forget about that. I'm going to kill him. If I see him right now, I'm going to kill him!

Rin slashed her nodachi down and a huge force or wind hit the corner of the school, which crushed the corner. "You… Why are you here?" Rin asked. "What luck he's really here," she whispered. "I couldn't sleep after all the sleep I had, so I came out to walk. Then I saw you," Kawaru blushed. "You didn't have to sneak did you?" Rin asked. "No, that's not it, I wasn't sneaking… I was just watching you train. I was envious, and I didn't want to disturb you," Kawaru looked a side. "Hmph, I'm going to kill you right now," Rin was breathing pretty hard. She slowly walked over to Kawaru. Then she started to wobble and tripped. She dropped her nodachi. Kawaru ran over and caught her. Kawaru placed his hand over her head. "You're having a fever," Kawaru stated. "Shut up, don't touch me. Let me go…" Rin tried to get up. "You don't even have the strength to move, nor to kill me…" Kawaru replied. "Shut up, let me go," Rin started to get even more red. She started to huff harder. "This isn't good, you're getting worst…" Kawaru said. "What are you doing?" Rin asked. "I'm going to carry you," Kawaru replied. He lifted her on his back. He picked up Rin's nodachi and placed it back in the sheath and held it in his hand. Then he ran to the school, and banged on the door.

Kawaru's thoughts. Damn, the school isn't opened… Where to? Where to? The dormitory. Her dormitory…

Kawaru hurried back to on' na noko ryo. "Where are you taking me?" Rin's voice faded. "To your room, don't talk and rest. When you get better you can try again and kill me," Kawaru smiled. "Hmph," Rin dropped her head on his shoulder. Kawaru smiled again. When he got to the girl's dormitory, he looked at the room list. "Room E… 6'th FLOOR! " Kawaru's eyes blurred. "Okay I can do it," Kawaru went to the stairs, and continued to elevate up.

When he arrived at Rin's room, he opened the door. He laid her on her bed. "It's hot," Rin whispered. "Hot, uh, uh…" Kawaru panicked. Then he went to the window and opened it to the widest. "Is it better?" Kawaru asked. "It's hot," Rin started to untie the strap around her clothe. Then she took off the top part of her Hakama. Kawaru panicked and turned around. "I'm not looking," Kawaru stated. "I'll get you water," he added. "No, come over here," Rin asked softly. "Why?" Kawaru blushed. "Just come over here, don't think about anything perverted," Rin said in a weak voice. "Yes," Kawaru walked slowly backwards. "Sleep with me," Rin said. "WHAT?" Kawaru yelled. "This isn't a fever… I was poisoned…" Rin explained. "B-b-by who? And w-w-why do I have to sleep with you?" Kawaru nervously asked. "It's a poison that makes a person burn up, from the inside and outside… The only way to cure this is to, coughs…" Rin said. "I only have about 9 more hours before, I die…" she added. "If you were poisoned, why would you be training?" Kawaru asked. "I was trying to hold the poison back a little longer," Rin said. "Who would do this to you?" Kawaru asked. "Stop asking questions," Rin got up and pulled Kawaru towards her, and kissed him. "What?" Kawaru thought. Rin covered them under her blanket.

"Hmph, seems like she was lucky… She found a guy to save her… Next time I'll definitely kill you too, Rin Kamiya…" a person in the shadow started to laugh.

The next day, when Yuki woke up she panicked where Kawaru was. "MAKI, WAKE UP! AND GET OFF OF ME!" Yuki yelled. "Huh? Oh sorry, I thought you were Kawaru," Maki chuckled. "Where? KAWA-CHAN?" Yuki asked. "Wasn't he here? WHAT! Kawaru isn't here?" Maki cried. "My poor, Kawaru," she added. "We have to go find him, and what are you doing?" Yuki asked. Maki was at the door. "I'm going to find Kawaru," Maki cried. "Just like that, wear some clothes first," Yuki glared. "Heh, I forgot," Maki chuckled. Maki was only in her White Button Shirt, and panty. Yuki was in her pajamas. Then they both changed.

When they went to school, they didn't see Kawaru anywhere. They both sighed, and went to class. When they got to class they saw Kawaru there already. "KAWA-CHAN! Where were you?" Yuki screamed. "I-I-I…" Kawaru looked at Rin and she gave him a look, then he said, "I was out for a walk, since I was sleeping so much," Kawaru looked away. "Oh, you should've told us," Yuki glared. "Oh I didn't want to wake you guys up," Kawaru replied. "That's like my Kawa-Kun," Maki stated. "You name imitator," Yuki yelled. "Who? I said Kawa-Kun, not Kawa-Chun," Maki stuck her tongue out. "Well I have to get to my class. I like this class, too bad I'm not in this class, jya!" she added.

The class bell rung, then Harumi came in. "Kiritsu," class president said. Everyone stood up. "Rei," class president said. Everyone bowed. "Chakuseki," class president said. Everyone sat. Home room was finished, and then Harumi left. Kizuki came in afterwards. She teaches Japanese. Sometimes she would do magic during the class and people would laugh, since she blows up things. Class started afterwards.

Rin's thoughts. Anyone but Kawaru… And why did she have to show up here. I should've killed her before. What am I going to do? I can't tell that I became his, or I'll be banned… or killed. I have to kill Kawaru… But he did save me… Hmph…

Kawaru's thoughts. My heart is thumping and all I can think about is today in the morning. I have to get it off my mind.

Lunch break finally came; everyone was so bored of class. "Kawa-Chan! You seem troubled, what are you thinking about?" Yuki asked. "It's nothing," Kawaru lied. "Hmm, Kawaru what's this scent on you, I don't think this is your scent…" Maki and Yuki suddenly stared at him. "You were cheating on us?" Yuki exclaimed. "No, that's not it…" Kawaru said. Then Rin came and took out her nodachi and slashed the desk. "What the hell are you doing?" Yuki yelled. "Killing him," Rin said. "Thank you," Kawaru whispered. Rin looked away. Rin started to chase Kawaru and he was running. "That's enough," Maki looked angry. She erected fire to her hands. Rin stopped chasing. "Hmph, let's take this outside," Rin cracked the window with her nodachi and jumped out. Maki followed. "Kawa-Chan, what should we do now?" Yuki asked. "I don't know, let's follow them," Kawaru jumped at the window, and so did Yuki. All the students started to gather at the window, watching them.

"Another fight, this is a dream come true," Hontaro said. "They did so much damage to this school, but the school doesn't really care about it," Noburo stated. "Well, because they might be scared of them…" Hyosuke replied. "You're just weak, so you say things like that," Noburo stated. "Be quiet, I'm recording them," Hontaro stated. They nodded.

"Maki, don't fight her!" Kawaru said. "Why not? She tried to kill you," Maki asked. "I'm with Maki, why are you stopping her," Yuki added. "Well, you can get suspended if the teachers see if she is hurt…" Kawaru explained. "Who cares, and now I remember that scent…" Maki said. "Whose is it?" Yuki looked angry as well. "It's her," Maki pointed at Rin with her flaming hand. "Shimatta," Rin whispered. Yuki began to freeze things around her, since she was getting angry. "Kawa-Chan, you were with her all night…?" Yuki asked. Kawaru didn't say anything. "I'm going to kill her, then you!" Yuki yelled.

Yuki burst and she ran all the way towards Rin. Yuki had her arms back erecting shards of ice, and then when she stopped running she threw them. Rin blocked it with her nodachi. "Is this your true strength?" Rin asked. Rin was hit on her shoulder from the ice, but she hid it with her shirt. Maki came also, she started to throw fire. Rin barely dodged all of them. Kawaru was in the state of shock. He couldn't move, but then when he looked closely Rin was hurt. He saw her blood dripping. "Sen no Toshi no Yuki no ARASHI !" Yuki yelled with anger and tears. "Tsubasa no Hanabi !" Maki also yelled with anger and tears. Both of there attacks combined into a spiral.

"Shimatta, I can't move…" Rin thought. Then Kawaru jumped in front of her. "What the?" Rin said. "ka-wa-ru, noooooooooooo!" Maki and Yuki said. Both of their attacks hit Kawaru. Kawaru began to burn and he froze. He is burning inside of the ice.

Rin's thoughts. He saved me again…

Rin became shocked. Kawaru was screaming from the pain. The teachers gathered around Kawaru. They were trying to free him, but they couldn't. "This ice can't be breached…" Kizu said. "I can't break it with my strength," he added. Kizu is a physical training teacher, but he specializes in fist fighting. "My talismans won't work either," Harumi said. Harumi is a history teacher, but she specializes in talisman summons. "My magic can't destroy the ice either," Kizuki said. Kizuki is a Japanese teacher, she specializes in explosion type magic. "We have no choice?" Harumi said. "Call the other teachers!" Kizu yelled. "They are all out today, that's why most of the students are in the auditorium," Naniko said. Naniko is a nurse, she specializes in healing. She is a cleric. "Damn," Kizu yelled. "We should stay back, I feel a strong force," Kizuki said. "I agree," Harumi nodded. They all pulled the students back.

Maki and Yuki were crying, they tried to run towards Kawaru, but the teachers were pulling them back. Rin was shocked but the teacher pulled her back. Maki and Yuki had their arms stretching out reaching for him, but they couldn't move. "Be careful with those two, if you touch her you might freeze since she's emotionally suffering so is the other one, she too is suffering you might get burned," Kouchou-Sensei explained. "Yes, sir," Kizu, and Kizuki answered. Kizu and Kizuki knocked them out. "It is going to come…" Kouchou-Sensei said.

"KA-WA-RU! " a voice came to Kawaru.
