Chapter Two

Curiosity

Kotarou and Misha went home. Then Ten-Chan and Koboshi went home too. A little while later Dai-Chan left. Lynne, Shia, and her cat Nya were the only ones there. Besides Ten-Chan's uncle.

"Well I guess I should go home now."

Lynne said getting up.

"Goodbye Lynne-san. I'll see you tomorrow."

Shia said smiling. Lynne nodded and left. Shia left too soon after.

---

Shia walked through the front door into the apartment house Misha shared with her. Shia saw Misha wasn't there yet and guessed she was with Kotarou who lived next door. Shia sat down with Nya.

"Shia I have suspicions about Lynne."

Nya said.

"Do you think she's an angel like Misha?"

Shia asked.

"I think she's an angel. But not like Misha. She seems… Different."

Nya said.

"Different? How different? You don't think she's a dark angel. Do you?"

Shia asked Nya. Nya shook his head.

"I don't know. But that's what my guess is."

Nya said. Shia nodded. Then Misha came bursting through the door.

"I'm home! Su!"

Misha yelled happily.

"Welcome home Misha-san."

Shia said smiling. Misha danced around and went to bed. Later Shia went to bed too.

Lynne was sick a couple of days. That's what Kotarou thought since she didn't come to school. A few days later Lynne came to school. Lynne looked a little pale. Kotarou guessed she was still sick. After school Lynne walked home with Kotarou. He went into Misha's house to see if she was home. But only Shia and Nya were home. Lynne, Kotarou, and Shia ate dinner and talked for awhile. All of the sudden a blonde girl came through the door. Lynne noticed the girl had angel wings.

"Hello Kotarou. Where's Misha?"

The girl asked.

"Hello. Are you a friend of Higuchi-sans?"

Shia asked the girl.

"No. She's an angel."

Lynne said with hate in her voice. Nya and Kotarou looked at Lynne.

"Gah! You guys can see me too?"

The girl yelled. Lynne, Shia, and Nya nodded. The girl stood there shocked for a moment. Then she looked at Nya.

"You! This is all your doing!"

She yelled pointing her finger at Nya.

"What?"

Nya yells.

"Alright time to feel the clean!"

The girl says. Then she starts spreading angel powder all over the room. Kotarou sighs.

"This feels nice…"

He said relaxed. Then Shia collapses.

"Shia!"

Kotarou yells worried. And Nya collapses too. Kotarou glares at the girl.

"More! More! Feel the clean!"

The girl says spreading more angel powder.

"Stop it Sasha!"

Kotarou yells angrily.

"It hurts…"

Lynne says in pain. Kotarou looks at Lynne. Lynne was on her knees wincing in pain.

"Higuchi-san…"

Shia says opening her mouth to show fangs.

"No… I can't."

Shia says then passes out.

"Shia!"

Kotarou yells.

"That girl…"

Sasha starts to say.

"Stop it! Just stop and get out Sasha!"

Kotarou yells angrily.

"But if I don't cleanse her now she'll…!"

Sasha starts to say but again gets interrupted by Kotarou.

"She'll what? Scream in pain? Just leave!"

Kotarou yells.

"Humph. Fine. But where's Misha?"

Sasha asks.

"I don't know."

Kotarou says.

"Figures."

And with that Sasha leaves.

---

The next few days Lynne was sick again. She came too school a few days later and noticed Kotarou was gone.

"Where's Kotarou-kun?"

Lynne asked Koboshi.

"Hello Lynne. I don't know. He got sick after an incident with Shia-san."

Koboshi said.

"Oh… I see."

Lynne says. She looked at Ten-Chan who seemed upset.

"What's wrong Ten-Chan?"

Lynne asked worried.

"Shia's gone. She left."

Ten-Chan said looking down.

"Oh… I see."

Lynne says sadly. Lynne knew Ten-Chan had feelings for Shia. But it made her heart hurt and she felt sad. She didn't know why though. She never felt like this before. Then Lynne remembered that she never felt love towards anyone before. Except towards her brother but that was different. Did she love Ten-Chan?
