I don't own anything except for my OC's.
I'm sorry if you find any grammar mistakes. I'm still learning English because it's not my first language.
The last day of the trip to the Okinawa island was slowly coming to an end as all of the students from E Class were gathered around their teacher. Koro-sensei called all of them for a meeting with him as he thought of the best way to to spend what time they have left on the island, not wanting the last day of his first and only trip to Okinawa with his students to be a boring one and was more than eager to share his idea with his students.
"A test of courage? Now?" Nagisa asked Koro-sensei.
"So that's why you wanted us here." David added.
"Yes." Koro-sensei confirmed, flexing his tentacles, "What better activity for a midsummer night?"
"You just want to have some fun," Karma stated, sitting on the floor.
"Unlike some people, I've been cooped up in a shell the whole time! On a tropical isle, of all places!" Koro-sensei reminded them about the time he spent in his Absolute Defense Form.
"A test of courage? Could be fun!" Maehara voiced his interest in Koro-sensei's idea.
Isogai nodded in agreement, "Right?"
"But I don't like scary stuff," Kurahashi said as David, Sugino, Nagisa and Kayano turned to look at her.
Sugino waved his hand dismissively, "No sweat! Koro-sensei will be playing the ghosts."
"You know he can't be scary when he's trying to be scary." David added.
Kurahashi looked at then with a relieved look on her face, "Oh, right!"
The students started to prepare themselves for the test courage right after and put themselves in pairs, a girl and a boy in each pair. Unfortunely for them, they remained unaware about Koro-sensei's true intentions. The octupus grinned widely as he watched the pairs his students formed, having "Matchmaking!" written at the back of his head decorated with two pink hearts.
The test of courage started as soon as the class arrived at the place where the test would take place. This place turned out to be a cave somewhere on the beach. Koro-sensei gave each pair a flashlight and let them into the cave before entering the cave himself, intending to put him plan of getting the students closer to each other and perharps getting them to become something more than friends into action.
"Do you mind this kind of thing, Nagisa?" Kayano asked in a slightly fearful voice, walking through the cave with Nagisa as she held her gun in her hand.
Nagisa held a flash-light in one hand and a knife in another, leading Kayano through the cave. He looked over his shoulder at the green haired girl and smiled, "Well, scary stuff doesn't bother me, but I'm not much for jump scares. Koro-sensei's so fast, we could be in trouble if he really meant to scare us."
Kayano stopped in her tracks a moment later, having heard something in front of her and Nagisa, "Is that an Okinawa shamisen?"
An instrument sounded in front of Nagisa and Kayano shorty before three spheres of blue light appeared on the sides of the cave. It was when a green faced Koro-sensei with a moustache and a beard glued to his face appeared in their view. The octopus was dressed in a traditional outfit and was holding a shamisen as he seemingly floated forward above the ground.
"There he is!" Nagisa and Kayano screamed at the same time.
"This is a blood-drenched cave of tragedy..." Koro-sensei began reciting in a serious tone, "...Where Ryukyu royalty, defeated in battle, met a violent end..."
Koro-sensei didn't got finish what he was saying to Nagisa and Kayano as the octopus vanished from their view a second later, taking the blue light he had brought with himself.
"Is it really?" Kayano asked.
"He probably just made it up to make it feel more real." Nagisa stated.
"You must stay together." Koro-sensei's voice echoed behind them, scaring them a bit as Koro-sensei appeared behind them, "Wandering spirits will haunt to death anyone left alone!"
Not wasting any time, Nagisa and Kayano quickly turned to look behind them and saw Koro-sensei was not there right now, having vanished from there a second earlier.
"Th-this is sounding pretty authentic." Kayano said with a nervous look on her face, "Let's hurry through, Nagisa,"
"Uh-huh." Nagisa nodded in agreement, moving forward with Kayano.
"-This is a blood-drenched cave of tragedy..." They overheard Koro-sensei saying the same thing to the next pair in the other part of the cave.
"Hearing him tell the same story to the next couple makes it even more real," Nagisa commented dryly as Kayano sweatdropped.
"Nurufufu." Koro-sensei laughed, thinking to himself, "You've gotten so much stronger. But you're still missing a little something. And that is... A love scandal! A few couples may have formed by summertime, but you're so focused on assassination that there hasn't been a single scandalous tale!" Kataoka and Isogai flew through his mind when he said thought words, "Here's where I use fear to give you a little push together." His eyes glowed with a bluish-white light as he held his student data book in his tentacles, "Then I can tease you—or write a based-on-a-true-story novel! Such is your teacher's generous consideration!"
Koro-sensei's weakness number 11: Loves gossip.
"Afraid of being... unafraid?" Okuda asked shyly, walking through the cave with Karma.
"Yep. Seeing Nagisa just then? Honestly, I was shocked." Karma admitted in a completely serious tone as he walked in front of Okuda, leading her through the cave. Okuda had her eyes set on him, listening to everything he had to say to her, "Not when he beat Takaoka. After that." He and Okuda froze in their tracks as he continued to speak, ""I mean in a fight, I'd for sure win. But to an assassin, that kind of victory doesn't mean squat. That's when I first realized. I was actually most afraid of not being afraid." He slowly opened his eyes and looked over his shoulder at Okuda, "Still... I won't lose. I'll be the one to take that teacher's life."
Okuda smiled cheerfully at him, nodding her head, "Uh-huh! Can't wait to see who ends up killing him."
"Say..." Karma said as he and Okuda looked ahead of them to see a game of Twister on the cave floor, "This was a test of courage? 'Cause it looks like he's got something stupid up his sleeve."
David walked through the cave, keeping his eyes out for any possible tricks his teacher might pull off on him in order to scare him. He wasn't completely alone, though. Ritsu was displayed on his phone which was placed in the pocket of shirt before entering the cave. He didn't worry about her getting scared by anything as he doubted Koro-sensei would be able to do anything to scare her.
"Are you seeing everything okay?" Ritsu asked, "Just let me know and I'll turn on the flashlight on your phone."
"I can see everything well. Don't worry." David assured her as Ritsu was about to ask him another question, but her words got caught in her throat as David added, "As long as a swarm of bees or a chainsaw wielding psychopath with a mask made out of human skin won't jump out of the corner, I should be fine."
"A chainsaw wielding man?" Ritsu asked in confusion, "Can you explained to me what do you mean by that? I'm aware of your fear of beeds, but this is the first time I heard you mention something like that."
"It's from a slasher movie." David explained, "There one was character which creeped out when I watched a movie where it starred when I was younger. After I watched the movie, this character started appearing in my nightmares pretty often and I had to run away from it, only to realize how slowly I can run. It stopped happening when I got older, though."
"I see." Ritsu nodded in understanding, "You know what David? If you didn't told me about your fear of bees when we were spending time together at your dorm complex, I would think you were referring to a certain episode of Supernatural."
David shook his head with an amused look on his face, "This episode was so bad. I love how the showrunners acknowledged it and made fun of it when Chuck was introduced."
"I know, right? The scene when Chuck asked Sam and Dean about it and apologized to them for making them live through it after they confirmed it was so funny." Ritsu agreed with a smile on her face. Her smile faded from her face a moment later, more serious look forming on her face, "David. Can I ask you about something?"
"Of course you can." David replied, "What is it?"
"It's about Nagisa." Ritsu revealed her question to him, "What did you felt when Nagisa defeated Takaoka."
"I was relieved." David gave her an honest answer, "I hated Takaoka as much as everyone from our class, but I didn't want Nagisa to kill him." He let out a short sigh, "I'm just glad everything worked out in the end."
Ritsu nodded in agreement, "Me too."
"Why did you ask me this?" David asked out of curiosity, passing the corner in the cave as he looked down at Ritsu.
"I was just curious." Ritsu explained as David nodded nodded in understanding and looked ahead of himself. What he saw in front of him made him stop in his tracks.
"Ritsu." David's words made the AI girl look up at him, "I think we took the wrong path."
"What makes you say that?" Ritsu questioned as she looked up at her friend with a confused look on her face.
David pointed at something in front of them as Ritsu looked to where he was pointing it and saw a white wooden bench in front of them, the kind of one you would see at the park, "This. How are we supposed to do that if you know, don't have a physical body?"
"...There was a married couple among those who ran away." Koro-sensei's demonic voice echoed across the entire area. David and Ritsu shifted their gaze from the bench to where the voice came from and saw Koro-sensei standing above a closed wooden gate which was leading further into the cave. He held his tentacles together as if he was some sort of a monk, "The pursuers drew near so they held each other atop a chair and committed suicide." He pointed at the bench David and Ritsu were looking it a few seconds earlier, "That chair is this one here. It's a traditional Ryukyu couple bench. If two people sit here for one minute, the cursed gates will open."
David sweatdropped, "What kind of tradition is this?"
"I don't know." Ritsu replied with a confused look on her face, "This is the first time I've heard of such tradition. I can't find anything about it on the internet either."
"You already did a research on it?" David asked as he looked down at her for a second.
Ritsu nodded in confirmation, "Yup!"
David shook his head, letting out an amused chuckle, "Never change Ritsu. Never change."
Having no other choice, David walked over to the bench and sat down on the right side of it. He took his phone out of his shirt pocket and put it down next to him. He and Ritsu exchanged glances, waiting for the one minute to pass.
"What is this? This isn't how it's supposed to go!" Koro-sensei whisper-yelled to himself after David and Ritsu didn't exchange any words with each other and didn't look at each other lovingly after sitting down on the bench. They instead simply waited for the time to pass. He turned away from then and began to make his way towards another couple of students, "The couple setup isn't going to well! The next pair for sure..." His words died in his throat when Hazame with a very creepy make-up on her face appeared right in front of them, "Guah! Monster!"
"I've been scaring the crap out of people since I was a little girl." Hazama said with a creepy grin on her face as Koro-sensei zoomed away from her and Terasaka in fear, "They don't call me Miss Courage Test for nothing. Scariest girl in Japan!"
Terasaka looked at her with a blank look on his face, "O-Okay. As long as you're having fun..."
Koro-sensei panted after stopping in some other part of the cave, "Wh-what was that ghost I just saw? Not the actual spirit of an actual Ryukyu ruler!"
Koro-sensei's weakness number 21: Gets scared by the supernatural.
He moved forward on his tentacles to be scared by yet another figure. This figure happened to be Chiba who had his eyes covered by his hair as usual, "No eyes!" His own konjac contraption was thrown right at his head, which made him scream in fear again, "I just felt something slithery!" He again speed off forward himself only to be scared by Kanzaki and Takebayashi, "A Japanese doll?! Horror cartoonist Shigeru Mizuki! Aaargh!"
Nagisa and Kayano happened to be pretty close to where Koro-sensei was right now and were able to hear Koro-sensei screaming in fear and unlocking all the contraptions he built for this test of courage, because of it.
"Turns out he's enjoying the frights the most," Kayano stated.
"Let's just get out of here," Nagisa said.
After Koro-sensei's test of courage plan was completely ruined, becuse of Koro-sensei getting scared by his own students and falling into every trap he had prepared for them, the students from E Class and their octopus teachers left the cave and they met on the beach near the entrance to the cave. The students were gathered around Koro-sensei as Koro-sensei laid on the sand, his face facing the sand.
"What a disgrace... what a total disgrace..." Koro-sensei whispered to himself in embarassment.
"So basically you meant to frighten us into becoming couples thanks to the suspension-bridge effect?" Maehara wanted to be sure if he understood everything correctly.
"We saw right through you before you even scared us!" Nakamura stated.
Koro-sensei lifted his head up from the ground and looked up at his students, revealing his tear stained face to them, "B-but I wanted to see you all! I wanted to grin at you holding hands and blushing, two by two! I was trying to keep you from marrying someone random!"
The students sweatdropped at his explanation.
David rubbed the back of his head, "This is awkward."
"He's sobbing with frustration." Kataoka stated.
"What a shabby grown-up." Maehara stated.
"Never mind that stuff. There are plenty of us who don't want to be dragged into a love affair." Nakamura said, "No offense, but isn't shipping us sort of creepy?"
Koro-sensei nodded in understanding, still sobbing, "All right, Nakamura. I get it."
"You call that a test of courage?" Bitch-sensei's voice sounded close to the entrance to the cave. Everyone looked over to the source of it and saw Bitch-sensei, her hands holding on to Karasuma's tightly, "There was nobody in there! What a waste of fear!"
"I told you it was pointless clinging to me like that." Karasuma told her in an irritated manner, "I don't need that kind of baggage after an all-nighter."
"Shut up! You are a man, aren't you? If there's a pretty woman around, escort her nicely." Bitch-sensei pointed out with an irritated look on her face as Karasums sighed and closed his eyes.
Bitch-sensei looked away from Karasuma and looked ahead of her and her fellow teacher, seeing all of their students looking at them. She freed Karasuma's arm from her grasp and awkwardly walked away, making some of the students sweatdrop.
"Guys." David leaned his head forward a bit with an interested look on his face, "Are seeing what I am seeing right now?"
Nakamura nodded in agreement, "Say... I'm starting to wonder..."
"Is Bitch-sensei...?" Kurahashi started to say.
Sugaya nodded in confirmation, "Uh-huh."
"What should we do?" Maehara asked.
The students continued to walk whisper among themselves as Bitch-sensei stopped by the shore, looking at the sea in front of her. The wind gently ruffled her long, wavy blonde hair.
"We've got time before we go home tomorrow morning. Shall we push them together?" Koro-sensei asked wickedly as his students, with the exception of Nagisa, grinned at Bitch-sensei, their eyes glowing with mischief.
The students and Koro-sensei made their way back to the resort right after they formed their plan of getting Bitch-sensei and Karasuma together, bringing Bitch-sensei along with them. The students were standing around Bitch-sensei who is sitting in a chair as Koro-sensei was nowhere to be seen right now, having gone off to take care of something shorty after arriving back at the resort.
"Ugh! That does it! How obtuse can a person be?" Bitch-sensei complained with an irritated look on her face as soon as her students filled her in about her plan as she folded her arms.
"This isn't like you. You wrap men around your little finger!" Maehara pointed out from where he was standing right now with a knowing grin on her face.
"But when it comes to her own love life, she's inexperienced," Kayano stated.
Bitch-sensei waved her hand dismissively, "Love? Ha! Don't make me laugh."
"What, it's not love?" Maehara asked.
"He's a rare bird, that's all—a world-class square! And while I was all worked up, trying to get him to fall for me, before I knew it, I..." Bitch-sensei's words got caught in her throat as she blushed.
"Yup." David nodded, having flashbacks of the time when he, Troy and Samantha were trying to get Brian and Jadis together as Sugaya, Chiba and Okajima blush at Bitch-sensei awkward side, "You're definitely into Karasuma-sensei, Bitch-sensei."
Bitch-sensei looked at him, "How would you do that?"
"My friends from America. Brian and Jadis. They're together. I and the rest of my friends worked together into getting them together." David explained, 'Your reactions is exactly the same as Brian's when he realized he had feelings towards Jadis."
Bitch-sensei glanced away from David with a slightly embarassed look on her face, saying nothing in response to her foreign students words.
"That was kinda cute." Maehara stated.
"And a little humiliating," Sugino added.
Bitch-sensei shifted her gaze between them with a questioning look on her face, "What? Why?"
Nagisa silently watched everything from where he stood, "Bitch-sensei is more awkward than she seems. All her experience must get in the way of being true to her emotions."
"Then just leave it to us!" Maehara said, "We'll set the perfect stage for you two!"
"Good idea!" Nakamura agreed and the rest silently nodded in agreement.
Bitch-sensei looked at her students with a surprised look on her face, "You kids..."
"Excellent." Koro-sensei made himself known between his students, now wearing square spectacles and a wig. "Let the Class 3-E love consultant meeting come to order!"
"Eager much, octopus?" Bitch-sensei asked dryly.
"It's only natural to encourage love between colleagues." Koro-sensei said, his face flushed pink, "A woman teacher's days of desire, infatuated with a man... It's got the makings of a bittersweet pure-romance novel!"
"You're clearly planning something racier." Nagisa stated.
"First off, Bitch-sensei, you dress all wrong." Isogai said as Bitch-sensei seemed slightly taken aback by this comment.
"Totally. 'If it's revealing, it's appealing'?" Nakamura added, "That's not what a square Japanese guy like Mr. Karasuma likes. You've got to be more... neatly dressed."
"Neatly dressed, eh?" Bitch-sensei repeated after her student with a confused look on her face.
"Yeah, like... Kanzaki." Nakamura turned around to look at Kanzaki who was standing behind her. She pulled out her phone and showed a picture of Kanzaki who was wearing a dress which was not revealing, but all the same, looked cute on her, "If yesterday's outfit is dry, could you lend it to her?"
Kanzaki nodded at her, "Yeah. Sure."
Bitch-sensei came back to her students a few moments later, now wearing Kanzaki's dress on himself. Unfortunely their plan backfired because Kanzaki's dress made Bitch-sensei look even more revealing and sexier.
"How'd that make her sexier ?!" Everyone exclaimed as Koro-sensei drooled at the view of Bitch-sensei in this outfit.
Sugaya sweatdropped, "For starters, the fit's a little off in places."
"We should have seen this coming." David facepalmed as Kanzaki buried her face into her hands in embarassment, "Size difference is a thing, after all."
"Yeah." Nakamura nodded in agreement as she facepalmed as well, "I feel so stupid right now."
Okajima turned around to look at Kanzaki, his nose slightly bleeding, "When I think of Kanzaki wearing something sexy like that... whoo!"
"Well, whatever. We can't fix the sexy. Compatibility is more important than boobs!" Okano stated as Kayano furiously nodded in agreement.
"Does anyone know Mr. Karasuma's type?" Koro-sensei questioned.
"Oh! He couldn't stop talking about that one person in a TV commercial. Said she was his ideal type." Yada made sure everyone had their attention on them as she told them about the one time when Karasuma-sensei was wearing a commercial of a superhero movie and displayed interested in the heroine presented in it.
A lot of her classmates quickly came to the same conclusion, "Ideal military potential, he meant!"
David put his hand on his chin with a pleasantly suprised look on his face, "Karasuma-sensei likes superhero movies?"
"That's what you're paying attention to?" A few of his classmates shouted.
"Th-then how about cooking for him? The hotel's dinner are plenty grand, but why not eat his favorite dish together, just the two of you?" Okuda suggested.
"I've only seen him eat burgers and cup ramen." Sugino said, "That's just too pitiful for a one-on-one date."
Koro-sensei took his glasses off, tearing up in despair, "There's no way we can use to push you together!"
Maehara put his hand on his chin, "I'm starting to think Karasuma-sensei is the problem here."
Bitch-sensei pointed at him, "See?! He's such an idiot!"
"And he brushes off my jokes so coldly!" Koro-sensei complained, now fully sobbing. He stopped crying a few seconds later and collected himself, putting his glasses back on, "Let's just do what we can before dinner. The girls will assist with the styling, while the boys will get the mood just right at their table."
"Roger!" Everybody immediately voiced their understanding of his words.
Bitch-sensei looked at them with a suprised look on her face, surprised at how the students were working hard to bring her and Karasuma together.
A bit later, Karasuma walked into the restaurant where he was planning to eat his dinner, completely unaware of the plan the rest of the class had formed. His students were the first thing he saw upon entering the restaurant. All of them were already in their places for dinner. He looked around himself, trying to find a place for himself and saw that all places were occupied.
"I thought we'd be eating as a group. What's all this?" He asked his students, hoping he will get answer from them.
Nakamura was laying on the couch close to Karasuma, leaving no space for anyone else, "No seats left for you, Mr. Karasuma."
Okano was sitting on the seat opposite of Nakamura, "It's our famous E Class teacher bullying!"
"You teachers just get in the way. You can go eat outside." Nakamura added.
Karasuma went outside, sweatdropping slightly at his students actions, "Where'd that come from? I just don't know what junior-high students are thinking these days."
He turned around and saw Bitch-sensei sitting at the table all by herself. The other seat at the table was unoccupied. Not having anywhere else to eat, he started to make his way towards where Bitch-sensei was sitting right now. The blond haired woman was wearing a black dress with a shawl wrapped around her. She looked up a moment later and saw Karasuma arriving at the table.
"Why were we the only ones kicked out?" He asked, taking his seat.
"Oh, uh... you got me." Bitch-sensei replies.
All of the students have left the restaurant at this point and gathered in the bushes close to Karasuma and Bitch-sensei, watching them from the distance. All of them were rooting for their english teacher. Except maybe Kurahashi. The orange haired girl had anime tears dripping down her cheeks as she watched Karasuma and Bitch-sensei. The students weren't the only ones watching them, though. Koro-sensei's head was sticking out from the ground.
Kayano shifted her gaze from her teachers to Hara, "What's with the shawl?"
"I bought it at a shop, borrowed a sewing machine, then used online photos to fake a brand-name lookalike," Hara explained.
"Home ec always was your specialty." Sugaya complimented her.
David rubbed his hands, looking forward to see where this situation will go, "Alright. Everything is set."
"Go get him, Bitch-sensei." Nakamura nodded as she quietly rooted for her english teacher.
Bitch-sensei smiled to herself as she used her fork to put some food in her mouth. Despise this situation and the setting not being something she was used to, she was actually having fun.
"A lot happened on this trip. But we did get results." Karasuma said as Bitch-sensei looked at him, "In an unexpected way, I confirmed that the students know their fundamentals. At this rate, we're sure to kill him during the second term. I'm relying on your strength too, Irina." Bitch-sensei stared silently at him, "What is it?"
Bitch-sensei looked away from him, feeling how a few unpleasant memories from her past life flew through her mind as she started to think about her past life. After pushing those thoughts away, she used the knife to cut the band tying her hair, causing her hair to hang loose. "Say, Karasuma. Do you really know what it means to kill?"
Karasuma stayed silent, his eyes set on the blond haired woman as Bitch-sensei stood up from her seat and slowly made her way to him, having something she wanted to say to him.
"Well, that got somber fast. And look how you've jammed in your napkin." She grabbed his napkin and pressed a soft kiss on to it and then wiped his mouth with it. Karasuma continued to stare at her silently as Bitch-sensei walked away from him. She stopped in her tracks a moment later, looking over her shoulder at him, "I like you, Karasuma. Good night."
Karasuma once again stayed silent, saying nothing in response to her words. He blinked a few times, watching how Bitch-sensei slowly walked away from where they were eating dinner together.
Bitch-sensei stopped in her tracks once she made sure she was out of his seeing range and put her hands on the sides of her head, "Stupid, stupid, stupid! Die, you dummy! You were supposed to tell him you love him, not talk about killing!"
"...Just like you!?" David's voice brought her out her thoughts.
"What kind of a half-assed kiss was that?" Nakamura added as Bitch-sensei looked ahead of herself and saw all of her students giving her thumbs-down.
"Use your tongue, your tongue! Like you always do!" Maehara said, sticking his tongue out to clarify his point.
"You irritating brats! Grown-ups have grown-up circumstances!" Bitch-sensei shouted at them with an irritated look on her face.
Koro-sensei pulled Bitch-sensei closer to his himself to the point their cheeks touching as a vein popped out on Bitch-sensei's forehead, "It's okay—now she'll take her time to work on some decently indecent developments. Right?"
"No, not 'right', you octoperv!" Bitch-sensei retorted.
Karasuma heard all the commotion in the distance, but remained unaware about what it was. He took the napkin and placed it on the table, thinking to himself, "I won't give this too much thought. After all, that's my duty. Prepare yourself. The second term: this is when we train even harder. This is when we kill him." He put his hand on his lips, thinking about Bitch-sensei's action from a few moments ago, "But what was that at the end there? A new move? Impressive."
Karasuma-sensei's weakness number 1: Denser than dense.
It was the final day of the summer break and David already know how he was going to spend it. The Summer Festival was taking place in the city tonight and David was looking forward towards participating in it as he wanted to know what his experience would be. He read about the festival on the internet and saw it in animes and video games, but he knew seeing it in those media would be nothing compared to experiencing it himself.
He wasn't the only one from his class who had plans of attending the Summer Festival tonight. Koro-sensei had the same idea and was asking everyone he could if they were interested in hanging out with him and having fun with him there tonight. David immediately voiced his interest in participating in the festival when Koro-sensei showed up in his room at his dorm complex as his poor teacher was seconds away from having an emotional breakdown.
Koro-sensei weakness number 22: Thinks a poor turnout means he is worthless.
Upon arriving at the place where his teacher told him to wait for him and his classmates, David made sure to look around his classmates as he was curious to find out who would be participating in the festival with him. Aside from Koro-sensei, he saw Nagisa, Kayano, Karma, Okajima, Maehara, Isogai, Chiba, Rinka, Yada, Kataoka, Kanzaki, Fuwa and Kurahashi. Even Bitch-sensei was present. Ritsu was present as well. She was displayed in David's phone and had a yukata on herself, just like the rest of her female classmates.
The group left for the festival shorty after making sure no one else would join them. The festival already started when they arrived at their destination and after arriving there, everyone split up around the place and went to do the activities they had in mind.
"More came than I expected!" Koro-sensei looked around himself, seeing how many students decided to come with him to the festival, after all, "Excellent, excellent! I was considering suicide if no one had shown up."
"I guess we shouldn't have come, then." Kayano stated.
Nagisa looked at Chiba and Rinka who have their backs to them, "Chiba and Hayami? Why so glum?"
"We got banned from the shooting gallery." Chiba explained, holding a lot of prizes in his hands.
"It was too easy. We got carried away," Rinka added, also holding a lot of prize items in her hands as Nagisa chuckled, sweatdropping a little, "We needed to practice."
"Hey mister..." Nagisa turned to the source of the voice and saw Karma at another stall, talking with the shopkeeper. He was holding a pen in one of his hands and a book in the other, I spent five thousand yen and never got any better than fifth place. Going by the number of strings and prizes left, the probability of of never getting fourth-place or above is..." He started writing in his book, calculating his answer, "Wow! 0.05 percent! Are any of these strings a winner?" He held the book in front of the shopkeeper with a devilish smile on her face and horns sticking out of his head, "Maybe I ought to get a police officer over here to check!"
The shopkeeping held his hands in front of himself with a nervous look on his face, "All right, all right! You can have your money back—just keep your mouth shut, kid!"
"Oh, no no, no." Karma shook his head, "I didn't spend five thousand yen to get my money back." He pointed at the video game console on the display, "I want a game console!"
"Karma sure is persistent." Nagisa stated.
Okajima nodded in agreement, "He could tell from the start that none of 'em were big winners."
Nagisa turned away from Karma and looked around himself, "Where's David? I lost the sight of him after we arrived at the festival."
"He went to the shooting gallery right after Chiba and Rinka got banned from it." Okajima explained and pointed towards where David was right now.
Nagisa looked in the direction Okajima was pointing at and saw David aiming a pellet gun at one of the prizes in the shooting gallery, already having a lot of prizes he had won in this tall gathered around himself, much to the dismay of the owner of the stall.
"At least he's having fun." Nagisa stated with an amused look on his face.
"Where are they getting these kids from?" The owner of the stall thought to himself in despair, anime tears spilling down his cheeks. This festival turned out to be nothing but a massive loss of money for him.
David smiled to himself as he pulled the trigger of the pellet gun, managing claim another prize from the shooting gallery for himself in the pricess, "Mister." He pointed at the prize he had just won, "I won the next one."
The owner of the shooting stall got himself on the ground in a pleading manner, with his hands and forehead touching the floor instead of giving David another prize he had won, "Could you and your friends not run me out of business, please?"
"Hmm, I don't know." David pretended to be unsure about what he should as he placed his hand on hic chin, "Will you give me back the money I paid you for my rounds and allow me to keep all the prizes I won?"
"Yes!" The owner of the stall immediately nodded his head at his words as he got himself back on his feet. He opened the cash register and pulled out the yen David paid him, "As long as you and your friends will stay away from my stall."
David smiled at him as he pulled out his wallet. He took the yen from him and put it in his wallet before placing it back in his pocket. He gave him one last look as he turned away from him, starting to walk away from the stall with all the prizes he had won, "Pleasure doing business with you!"
He stopped in his tracks a moment later and took off his backpack. He nodded to himself. He knew bringing it with himself to the festival was good idea. He unzipped it and put all of his prizes inside it before zipping it again. He slouched it over his back, beginning to walk forward himself as he wanted to try out a few other activities at the festival before the firework show.
He came across Isogai and Maehara on his way to another stall as Isogai smiled at him at him, "Hey, David. Having fun?"
"You know it." He smiled at him and pointed at the gold fishes Isogai was carrying right now, "Wow, Isogai. You won a lot of goldfishes."
"When you're poor, you glad to get a whole meal for a hundred yen." Isogai replied as David nodded in understanding, not realizing what Isogai meant by that right away, "I've been thinking about frying them."
"Sounds nice." David nodded, still not realizing what Isogai meant by that, "Talk to you later. There are a few other stalls I want to check out."
Isogai nodded at him, "See you later."
David smiled at Isogai and walked past him and Maehara. He froze in his tracks a moment later, having realized what Isogai was planning to do with the fishes. He looked over his shoulder to look at Isogai with a shocked look on his face, thinking to himself, "...Wait? What is he going to do with them?"
He remained where he stood for several more seconds, before breaking himself out of his shocked state. As the time passed, David continued to check out every stall at the festival he was interested in checking out and much to his suprise, some of the stalls were run by Koro-sensei after the owners of the said stall closed them up early. After checking out most of the stall at the festival, having a lot of fun while doing so and knowing the firework show was just moments away from starting, David made sure to find himself a good spot to watch the firework show from.
Nagisa and Kayano seemed to have the same idea as him as they approached him a few seconds after he found himself a good spot. The fireworks started a few moments later. The fireworks started painting the sky in various beautiful colors, making everyone look at them in awe. Everyone who was present at the festival stopped their activities and started watching the the firework show with gladdened looks on their faces, enjoying the beautiful display on the sky.
"Our summer break sure was packed." Kayano stated with a smile on her face, staring at the fireworks alongside Nagisa and David.
Nagisa nodded in agreement, smilling, "Yeah."
"You can say that again." David agreed with her as he took a few pictures of the fireworks with his phone, intending to send them to his friends from America.
"But I bet our second term will be even more packed." Kayano stated.
"Yup." David nodded in agreement. Considering how closer they were getting to their deadline with each passing day, he couldn't help but agree with Kayano, "I'm getting the same feeling myself."
The students continued to watch the firework show until it ended, making sure to enjoy every second of it. After the show ended, the students said their farewells to each other and went their own separate ways, starting to make their way back to their homes, becausethey knew they had to get ready for school tommorow. After saying his farewells to Nagisa and Kayano and parting ways with them, David followed example of his classmates and started to make his way towards his dorm complex.
"I see you're heading to your dorm complex." David turned to the source of the voice and saw Karma walking towards him. David immediately caught the sight of Karma's new video game console.
"You won a brand new video game console?" He asked, both impressed and jealous by it, "I have to say. I'm kind of jealous."
"Who said I won it?" Karma replied, catching up to David as David looked at him with a curious look on his face, "I spent enough money and then used math to show the owner how impossible it is to win at his stall. Afterwards I gave him an ultimatum. He would give me my money back and this game console otherwise I would report him to the police."
David smiled in amusement, beginning to walk along the street with Karma, "I see. A classic move made by Karma Akabane."
"You know it." Karma smiled back at him, "I don't think you have to be jealous, though." He pointed at David's backpack, "From what I've seen, you've won a lot of rewards yourself at the shooting gallery."
"If you say so. At least I will have something to give my family and friends back in America." David stated as Karma looked at him with a curious look on his face, "I will be like "Do you think I forgot about you when I was overseas? Of course not." and then I will put those things out of my luggage and hand it out to my family and friends."
Karma nodded in approval, "Not bad. I see you've thought about it."
"You know it." David nodded at him, "I even thought about getting myself a Henna tattoo in the stall which was making these, but the line was too long and didn't want to risk losing time on the first and probably the only summer festival in Japan I will have. Speaking of the Henna tattoo's. You said your parents are crazy about them and get themselves one whenever they go to India, right? Why they never took you with them?"
"I never wanted to go." Karma shrugged as David looked at him in concern. He quickly changed the topic of the conversation as he didn't want to go further into the topic, "You wanted to get yourself a Henna Tattoo? What for? You wanted to give Bitch-sensei flashbacks of when Sugaya and Koro-sensei turned her body into a coloring book when she was unconscious?"
"Don't remind me." David shivered at the memory, "What happened afterwards was the only time when Bitch-sensei was truly scary." He and Karma stopped on the crossroads a few seconds later. He looked in the direction where his dorm complex, "Looks like we're splitting up here. I'll see you tommorow."
"Do you want to stay-over at my house for the night?" Karma offered, "My parents aren't home right now so I doubt anyone will mind an extra person staying in the house for the night."
David thought for a moment about the answer, before nodding his head at the red haired delinquent, "Why not? It's not like anyone will notice I'm spending the night someplace else at the dorm complex tonight."
"Great." Karma grinned, "I'll show you tommorow morning what I can do for breakfast. I make a pretty good chilli con Carne."
David looked at him with a cautious look on his face, "Should I be afraid?"
Karma pretended to look hurt by this question, "Why do you ask this question?"
"Because it's you Karma." David pointed out, "Nagisa told me about the wasabi filled chocolates you got him on his birthday."
Karma shrugged, "They were good."
"Hey there." An unfamiliar voice echoed a few meters on their left. The two teengers looked over to the source of it and saw a boy who looked like he was in high school stopping next to Ashley. Ashley was wearing a yukata, just like the rest of the girls her age at the festival did. Ashley stopped in her tracks and set her eyes on the older boy, "You're not from around here, aren't you?"
"Yes." Ashley nodded in confirmation, "I came here from the foreign student exchange program. I've been spending my time at the festival with my friends from the program."
"I see." The unknown boy nodded in understanding, "Where are you friends now?"
"I split up from them a few moments ago." Ashley explained, "I was just on my way to met up with one of them."
The unknown boy gave her another nod of understanding, "How about I'll take you there and show you around in the process? I could be your guide."
"Thank you for the offer but I don't need a guide." Ashley shook her head at his offer, "I've been in this country for a few months now. I can make it there on my own."
The unknown boy put his hand on Ashley's shoulder, making sure she won't start walking away from him, "Are you sure about this? It gets pretty dangerous around here at this time of the day, you know. It would nice to have someone watch your back."
"Y-Yes. I-I'm sure." Ashley felt herself grow unsettled by this boy's presence after hearing his words. She tried to her his hand off her shoulder, but it was no use. He was much stronger than her, "C-Can I go now? M-My friend is waiting for me and I-I don't want to keep her waiting."
"If you let me take you to her, she won't have to wait for you for any longer." The unknown boy replied, "After I will take you to her, the three of us will go to whenever the two of you are staying right now. Perharps we'll come across some of my friends in the process."
"I'm grateful for the offer, but I assure you I can make it there on my own." Ashley immediately declined his offer, just like she did previously, "C-Can you please let go off my shoulder?"
David watched everything from where he stood with Karma. He let out a deep sigh, debating with himself what he should do right now as Karma looked at him with a questioning look on his face, wondering what his friend was about to do. Part of him wanted him to turn around and go with Karma to his house, considering the way Ashley treated him with the rest of his fellow exchange student after he got put in E Class, but the other part of him was telling him to do something about it.
He let out another deep breath, having made his decision as he pushed himself into walk towards Ashley and the unknown, the part which was telling him to do something about it having won his internal discussion. Seeing his friend start to make his way to the scene a few meters away from them, Karma followed his foreign friend. The red haired delinquent prepared himself to do something in case if the confrontation will escalate into something else.
David got himself between Ashley and the unknown boy, causing both of them to look at him. His set his eyes on the unknown boy, ignoring the suprised look Ashley was giving him, "Leave her alone. Can't you see she's not interested in your help?"
Ashley's eyes widened in suprise, having not excepted this person out of all people to help her, "D-David?"
The unknown boy glared at David, "What did you just say?"
"I said leave her alone. Can't you see she's not interested in your help?" David repeated himself, "Do you have any hearing problems?"
The unknown's boy glare only worsened after David's comment, "Looks like someone needs to teach you a little lesson in respect for elders."
He took his hand off Ashley's shoulder and shifted his entire attention from her to David. He clenched his hand and swung his fist at David, intending to punch the foreign boy in the face. David's reaction was instant as he moved to the side before the fist could collide with his face and grabbed the fist mid-air before the unknown boy could try to punch him again, suprising the older boy. Ashley took a step backwards with a shocked look on her face, taken by suprise by what David just did.
The foreign boy headbutted the unknown boy, making him stumble backwards a bit. The unknown boy regained his balance and glared at David. He stepped towards him, intending to finish what he had started as David looked at him with an unbothered look on his face. Karma got himself between him and David before he could reach his target and punched him right in the face, knocking him to the ground.
The unknown boy clutched his nose, starting to get himself back on his feet as Karma stepped on him to make sure he won't get himself back on his feet, holding a line he had pulled out of his bag before stepping it between him and David. The red haired delinquent quickly tied the line around the unknown boy's leg and hands, making sure he won't try to attack him or David again.
"Thanks for the help." David looked at Karma with a grateful look on his face as Ashley looked between them with a suprised look on her face.
"I couldn't let you get yourself into trouble." Karma grinned at him, "Watching everything from the background would be no fun."
David shook his head at him with an amused smile on his face as he shifted his gaze to Ashley, "You okay?"
"Y-Yes." Ashley replied, her suprised expression not leaving her face, "T-Thank you."
Karma crossed his arms at Ashley, "You better remember it the next time you and the rest will think about treating him like crap."
Ashley looked at him with a slightly guilty look on his face, "I..."
"You better get out of here." Karma unfolded his arms and looked down at the bounded unknown boy, starting at him like an animal stared at it's prey, "I and David will take care of our little friend here."
Ashley said nothing in response to his words and pushed herself into a run towards where Lara was waiting for her. She struggled a bit for a second because of his footwear. She looked down at her feet and took off her sandals, placing them under her armpits as she knew it will take her less time to reach Lara if she will go barefoot. She passed the corner a moment later, vanishing from Karma and David's view.
David looked at Karma with a questioning and curious look on his face after watching Ashley leave, "Take care of our little friend? What do you have in mind?"
Karma grinned devilishly as he crouched down in front of the unknown boy and pulled out a bag. David was very familiar with this one particular bag at this point, especially after the trip to the island, "I feel like someone needs to be taught a lesson if you ask me. You know I have the best equipment to do it."
David nodded in agreement, forming a grin of his own as he crossed his arms, "Do your magic, Karma."
"How about you try it out? The idea of stepping in was yours to begin with." Karma offered as he looked over his shoulder at him, "I can show you a trick or two with wasabi or mustard which may become handy to you once you'll come back to America."
David considered Karma's offer for a moment, before nodding his head at him. He crouched down next to Karma, his eyes set on The unknown boy, "You know what? Why not. Show me how it's done. I'll show it to my friends back in America when they'll ask me what interesting I learned in Japan."
The two friends looked at The unknown boy in front of them with large grins on their faces as Karma started to take his equipment out of his bag, making sure they had everything they needed for their little operation. The unknown boy gulped in fear as he felt how all the air just left his lungs, knowing he was not going to like whatever Karma and David were going to do to him.
Ashley proceeded to make her way to where Lara was waiting for her after leaving David and Karma with The unknown boy, her mind trying to process what had just happened. David saved her from this thug with the assistance of no other than Karma Akabane. Him hanging out with Karma didn't suprise her all that much as the two were often spotted hanging out together with a few other students from E Class.
She was suprised about something else. She was suprised by the stunt that David had just pulled off. It wasn't even the first time when she saw him pull off something like this. The first time when she saw him pull off something like this was before the final exams where he and his classmates scared the living crap out of the Big Five during the preparations for the final exams.
She couldn't help but wonder about many things right now. How was he able to do it? Where did he learned it in the first place? She didn't spoke to David much after he was placed in Class E, but he never came off to her as someone who liked to exercise much in his free time. The look on his face when made chills go down her spine, even though it wasn't even directed towards her.
"Ash?" Lara's voice pushed her away from her thoughts.
Ashley stopped in her tracks, having realized she had arrived the place where she was supposed to met up with Lara, "Hey, Lara. I'm sorry I'm late. I got a little occupied on my way here."
"Are you okay, Ash?" Lara asked her friend, concern evident in her voice, "You look like you just saw a ghost."
Ashley shook her head, "No. It's nothing important. Let's just go back to the dorm complex."
Lara nodded at her with an unsure look on her face and looked down, noticing Ashley had taken her sandals off for some reason, "Why did you took your sandalls off?"
"I just figured out I would reach you faster if I went barefoot, heh. I didn't want to keep you waiting." Ashley gave her a sheepish smile, using the first excuse which came into her mind as she put her sandals back on her feet, "Let's go. I can't wait to lay down on my bed and get some sleep.
Lara gave her another nod, unsure if she should buy her friends answer. The two of them started to make their way towards the dorm complex, paying no attention to the agonizing scream of the unknown boy which echoed behind them.
Welp, here we go with season 2.
I took a small break from this story after finishing the first season, but I should go back to making at least one chapter a month now.
Hope it wasn't that bad. See you in another chapter.
