"blahblahblah"--thoughts

(?)&(!) ex.WHATTHE!(?)---well...since I can't put them together side by side I just did it like that.

Chapter1
In the garden a young girl was sitting on a bench with her head resting on her right hand. She sighed and looked at her sword, which was tilted beside her.

"It's my day off and all I did was lounge around the garden's of the Head Temple." She closed her eyes. "It would have been more productive if I helped Asuna and Negi with their guarding duty." She let her eyes open just a bit. She was now staring at the one of the small koi ponds that were placed in the gardens. Without even noticing it her thoughts wandered to thoughts of the person they were guarding, Konoe Konoka or how she was commonly known in the Head Temple, Ojou-sama. She smiled and a small blush roused to her cheeks. She closed her eyes once again and laughed at herself. "Heh, I'm always with Ojou-sama and yet I can never get tired of being with her."

Suddenly she felt a pair of arms pulling her backwards and found herself staring up at no other than Konoka. Her eyes widened and she felt her cheeks redden. "O-O-Ojou-sama…." She stuttered.

She smiled. "Hi Secchan…" Konoka replied and let go of Setsuna. Konoka proceeded to sit down beside Setsuna.

"Good afternoon Ojou-sama…"

Konoka pouted. "You know you don't have to call me that."

"I know, but calling you Ojou-sama reminds me of my duty."

"I think you're too serious, Secchan. You should learn to relax, think of something else."

Setsuna blinked and chuckled. "Yeah, I guess." "Think of something else? There's nothing else worth thinking about." "Ojou-sama?"

"Yes?"

"Why are you here? You're supposed to be with Takahata-sensei studying. Asuna-san and Negi-kun should be with you, and I don't see them anywhere."

"Well, Takahata-sensei let me go early. I kinda told Negi-kun and Asuna I was going to meet up with you, even though I didn't know where you were."

Setsuna gave her a look of disapproval. "You know it isn't always safe even if we are inside the Head Temple."

"I know, sorry."

"It's fine, just don't make it a habit."

Konoka nodded.

"It's going to be dark soon. We should get inside." She stood up and offered her hand to Konoka, which she took and she stood up as well.

It was currently five thirty eight pm and Eishun-sama wanted to talk to Setsuna by six twenty pm. "Geez, Setsuna-san, where the heck are you!(?)" Asuna screamed in her head and ran down the hall trying to find Setsuna.

Konoka looked at Setsuna. "Wasn't that Asuna?"

"Yeah…it was…"

Asuna stopped running. "Wait a second…wasn't that just Setsuna and Konoka in the other hallway?" Asuna ran back the way she came from and looked at the four connecting hallways. They were all empty. Asuna slapped her forehead. "Aww…now I have to look for her again!" "Why does this place have to be so big?(!)" She ran in through the hallway parallel to the hallway Setsuna and Konoka were walking in. "They must have gone over to the bath…or the gardens…or the training hall…GAH! Just check them all!"

After running around the Main Temple for thirty minutes with all her energy that she realized just how very wrong she was on her guesses. There were a few places left but she had a feeling she should check the main dining room. She checked her watch; it was now five fifty eight. If she didn't hurry Setsuna might not be able to make it on time. She dashed to the main dining hall.

When she got there she opened the sliding door and thankfully Setsuna and Konoka were there.

"Ah! Setsuna-san!" She sighed thankfully. "FINALLY! Eishun-sama wants to see you in his room at six twenty." Asuna plopped herself on a zabuton not even allowing herself to seiza sit. She eventually let her back fall to the tatami mat allowing herself to rest after all the running.

Konoka chuckled at Asuna's actions.

The black haired girl glanced at the clock hanged on the wall. "I should get going then, I'll see you later then, Ojou-sama, Asuna-san." And with that she left the dining room.

Konoka poked Asuna's side. "Asuna-san, you know you're not allowed to do that here."

Asuna sat up. "Ack, I know I know. I'll just head back to my room and rest for a bit. I think Negi's sparring with Ku Fei, so it should be quiet enough to rest. " And she proceeded to stand.

Konoka followed suit. "Not if Chamo was left in your room."

"I hope not."

Setsuna stood outside Eishun's sliding door. "Eishun-sama"

A reply came from inside the room. "Yes, Setsuna-san please come in."

Setsuna closed the sliding door behind her and sat on the zabuton, which was placed parallel to Eishun. She placed her sword down beside her and looked up at Eishun. "What is it you wanted to talk to me about Eishun-sama?" She started.

"I have to tell you something important. It has something to do with Konoka."

Eishun had definitely caught the half demon's attention. Setsuna nodded.

Eishun continued. "A few years ago, I received a letter. No, not a letter, a threat actually. In that letter it was said that once Konoka's powers were released they would take her. For what reason, we're not sure but we suspect they would want to use her powers for selfish reasons. For these past years we have prevented Konoka's powers from awakening. As you might know we cannot prevent it forever, it's bound to awaken one way or another."

"This letter was sent some years ago wasn't it? What if they were just bluffing?"

"Never underestimate these things Setsuna-san. One would not threaten if one did not have the power to carry it out. The feat alone of delivering this letter without the sender being detected is enough for this to be a real threat."

Setsuna stayed silent and Eishun continued.

"Just be extra careful Setsuna-san, just in case they plan to capture her before her powers are released. There is a very big possibility that her powers will awaken soon."

"Yes, Eishun-sama."

"Very well then, you may go now Setsuna-san."

Setsuna took her sword from the floor and bowed. As soon as she left the room she felt a presence in the hallway. She glanced at the corner, no one was there but there was definitely a presence…and a shadow? It was right in the middle of the hallway too. "A shadow? Without an owner?(!)"

Just then Konoka came walking down the hallway coming to greet Setsuna after her meeting with her father.

The shadow saw her and jumped for Konoka.

"Ojou-sama! NO!" Setsuna jumped, put her arms in front of her and intercepted the shadow, which engulfed her. "What the!(?)" Were her last thoughts as the unknown monster engulfed her.

Konoka watched in horror as the black shadow engulfed Setsuna. "SECCHAN!"

It fell to the floor, widened and took up more than half of the hallway.

Eishun came out of his room when he heard Konoka scream. Asuna, Negi, Ku Fei, Mana and Kaede started to run over to where Konoka and Eishun were.

"What the heck is hape- Dwah!(?)" Asuna stared at the black shadow like creature, which engulfed part of the hallway.

Negi looked around. "Where's Setsuna-san?" Negi asked no one in particular.

Kaede looked at Negi. "Speaking about Setsuna…"

Mana faced Konoka. "What happened to her?" Mana continued.

"S-she was taken in by that shadow."

"What!" Everyone exclaimed and looked at the shadow with disbelief.

Betcha you guys thought this story would revolve around Negi and Konoka. Sorry but I'm a solid KonoSetsu fan. Ehehe… I have to write the next chap already or I won't remember what I'm supposed to write. Anyway, next is what happens to Setsuna inside that shadow like blob thingy. AND what happens OUTside that shadow like blob thingy. And I might put an interval of how Eishun got Setsuna, Asuna and blah blah blah to join the "We must protect Ojou-sama squad". I don't really have a proper name for it huh?

Ku Fei: Aiyah! I don't think is proper without me talking in this chapter yo!

Ekilow: You kinda just did…

Asuna: Since when did we become the "We must protect Ojou-sama squad"?(!)

Chamo: Where da heck am I?(!)

Ekilow: You were….mentioned…you'll all get a chance in the future. Don't worry don't worry.
