"Change me back, Yukari!", Kokoa shouts as she desperately tries to keep her own clothing from falling off her tiny body.

"Now what? Why'd you shrink at a time like this? There's no way you've forgotten you're in the middle of a fight with us?", the Karate Club boss questions the two little girls. When he notices how defenseless they are, he cracks his knuckles and says, "I hope you're prepared to die. Because on top of beating up our club members you're making a mockery of Karate right in front of my eyes."

Alright, I think I've had my laughs, now it's time to step in and do something. I round the corner with a lit cigarette in my mouth, gaining the big guy's attention with the smoke coming off its burning end while I say, "There you two are. I've been looking all over for you two."

"Stay out of this. This doesn't concern you.", their boss growls as he focuses his glare on me.

Is he...threatening me? I can't help but laugh at this idiot before coming back with, "Nah, I think I'm gonna get as involved as I want. What are you guys doing back here with such young girls anyways? What are you, some lolicons or something?"

His three stooges get a little rattled by my little insult, but the big boss himself doesn't seem too phased. "How dare you insult us like that!?", the bald one shouts as he charges at me. Before he can even touch me, I knock him on his ass with a quick sweep of his feet followed by kicking his lights out in a single kick to his shiny dome.

"He was always the impatient one.", the boss groans to himself in disappointment as he looks down at his beaten buddy.

"You'll be leaving these girls alone now, unless you want your asses kicked.", I growl at the club as I kick their unconscious friend over to them.

"Reiji, those guys are seniors from the Karate Club. Don't take them so lightly.", Yukari tries to warn me, but I'm not underestimating these guys. They're just a bunch of thugs and if they want some, I'll give it to them.

The boss takes a stance and throws a punch at me even though we are a good ten feet away from one another. With a single punch, the guy shoots a blast of wind that knocks the cigarette out of my mouth. He looks at me with a smug grin on his face, as if he thinks he actually did something, like knocking out one cigarette would send me over the edge. "I am Karate team captain, Haiji Miyamoto! No matter who they are, anyone who mocks karate will feel my wrath!", the boss says as if that means something to me.

"Feel your wrath huh? I'm guessing you're talking about that cool breeze you sent my way. That was a cute trick, but hardly anything special.", I mock the club leader as I give Kokoa my coat. "Here, put this on. Your clothes seem to be falling off so you can cover up with this for now.", I tell her as I wrap my jacket around her.

"Bleh, it smells like smoke and ash.", the little vampire complains as she smells my coat.

"I'll deal with these punks then we'll go back to the Newspaper Club room, okay?", I tell the two girls as I stoop down to their level to make eye contact.

"Punks?", the two other seniors growl at me as they look to each other. They both charge at me from behind, but I headbutt one of them before grabbing him by the shirt and using him to knock out the other senior, swinging his limp body like a weapon to send them both flying into the nearby wall.

"Well, that's three down. Now for the captain of the weaklings, Haiji Miyamoto.", I mock this failure of a club leader as I clean the dirt off my hands.

"You might be worth fighting. How about we pick a better scene for our battle?", Haiji happily asks with a grin on his face.

"Fine, I'll kick your ass later if you want. Just don't be bothering my friends again, understood?", I reply with a glare at the two guys Kokoa beat the shit out of.

"Then we'll do battle at the bus stop at midnight. It'll be a full moon, so it should be the perfect setting for our battle.", Haiji suggests as he picks up his friends and throws them on his shoulder before taking his leave leave.

"I'll see you there.", I happily answer his challenge as a cheeky grin comes across my face. This guy seems like he'd be worth the time. His monster energy seems like that of a Tengu, but what kind? I guess we'll find out when we fight him.

"Why did you help us Reiji?", Kokoa sheepishly questions me as she holds my jacket around her tinier body.

"Because I didn't want to have to scrape you guys off the ground with a shovel and explain what happened to your sister. She'd really try to kill me then.", I jokingly reply as I turn to the girls with a slight smile.

"That would be a problem hehe.", Yukari notes as the tension in the air lightens.

"I could've handled those guys all by myself. I didn't need any help from you.", Kokoa growls at me as she turns away from me, showing her usual stubborn vampire tone.

"Oh really? Because we could always just call them back here and test that.", I jokingly suggest as I pretend to go after Haiji, causing the girl to shoot up onto her feet to stop me.

As she grabs my shirt, tugging me to a stop, Kokoa pleads to me, "No wait! Don't!"

"I was only kidding. I'm going to kick his ass later so this will all be settled eventually.", I say as I turn back to the girls and continue heading to the Newspaper Club room.

"So we're heading back to the Newspaper Club room, right?", Yukari questions me as she stands up next to the shorter vampire.

I give the little witch a quick nod before answering her question with, "Yep, we need to see if Ruby can fix whatever you two did."

"But if we go back there, everyone's just going to laugh at me!", Kokoa complains as she starts to tear up in front of me.

"We don't really have a choice unless you want to stay like that for who knows how long.", I reply as I start heading to the club room, dragging the two small girls along with me. Let's just hope Ruby can figure this shit out.

As soon as we walk through the door Kurumu starts busting out laughing as soon as she sees Kokoa and once Mizore sees her she can't stop snickering. Her snicker is kind of cute.

"So what did you make, Yukari?", Ruby asks as she holds out her hand, waiting for the little witch to hand over her most recent experiment. The little witch turns over her bottle of pills to Ruby and as the taller witch reads the label, she says, "Suku Suku Drop? It appears to be a drug that induces 'forced metamorphosis' into an adult form in the person who ingests it. That's pretty cool Yukari. It seems to only use the Yokai shape-shifting ability so after some time the effects should ware off, hopefully."

Kurumu can't seem to stop pounding on the table and Mizore just keeps snickering every time they see Kokoa in this kid form. Kurumu snatches Kokoa and shoves her tiny head into her chest while gleefully saying, "I love your new form Kokoa!"

And as Kokoa comes up for air, Mizore pats the vampire's tiny head while saying, "The little you is definitely cuter."

Then Moka, being the responsible one out of our group, tries to get them to stop, waving her hands defensively as she says, "Come on guys, knock it off, Kokoa's been through enough already." This ultimately fails as it usually does and Kurumu and Mizore continue to pester the girl's small sister.

Though Tsukune is able to get them to stop when he says, "Don't tease her. But why did you want to be an adult so much that you would take some sort of drug? Was it some sort of special situation or something?"

Kokoa reluctantly says, "That's.. You see.. I tried to join the Karate Club, but they said no kids and made me feel stupid."

Mizore the ginger a confused glance before asking, "You weren't going to join the Newspaper Club?"

Furious with the Ice Woman's questioning, Kokoa shouts at her, declaring, "I never said that once!"

Kurumu only laughs in response to the little tantrum before pulling the girl even closer and saying, "You really are silly, aren't you? If you don't join, you'll regret it later. We're the number one club in popularity in this year's culture division. Anyhow, there's just too many applicants you know." As she rubs her 'child' on her head, the surprisingly motherly succubus smiles down at Kokoa while saying, "If you're gonna join it's gotta be now, right now. We'd skip the lottery and let you right in as our mascot."

Kokoa struggles to break free from her grip while shouting, "Quit rubbing my head! And what do you mean Mascot, I'm never going to join!"

Moka comes to her sister's rescue, breaking her free of the busty girl's grasp as she says, "You can't laugh guys. Even if she turns into a child, Kokoa is still Kokoa. We have to treat her like we always do."

Kurumu rolls her eyes at the pink haired girl and says, "Gosh Moka, how come it's just you being all goody-goody?"

I haven't been here more than an hour and I'm already sick of all this bickering. With a heavy sigh, I glance over at the succubus and add my two cents, saying, "I'm with Moka on this one. She's the same person just in a smaller body."

Kurumu groans back in response, irritated with both of us, while Moka comforts her little sister, telling her, "It must be tough in that body, right? If you're okay with me helping you I will."

Kokoa is thrilled by her sister's praise, even though its the pink haired Moka and not the inner one, as Yukari says, "Moka always has that mature response to things, right? It's a good thing we came here."

"Now let's do something about your clothes. You can't go walking around in Reiji's smelly coat all day.", Moka says as she takes Kokoa into the hallway.

"Hey, who are you calling smelly!?", I shout down the hallway at the eldest vampire sister.

"You do smell like cigarettes most of the time Reiji.", Tsukune adds with his hands slightly up defensively.

I growl back at him for a moment before letting out a defeated sigh. Damn it, he's right. I take a step away from the boy, laying off of him for a moment as I sadfully have to admit, "I know, I've been meaning to quit, but I'm just hooked. And I can't quit today, because I have to fight that Karate Club captain at midnight tonight."

The girls seem to take forever finding Kokoa some reasonable clothes to wear, but when they come back they seem to have settled on a maid outfit. As soon as they came back Moka leaves to go get some coffee while we sit back and keep an eye on Kokoa.

Kurumu stares at Kokoa and says, "Ah.. I'm loving this. If Tsukune and I had a child together I wonder if it would be something like this."

Mizore starts rubbing Kokoa on her back while saying, "You wanna come to my house? I'll start raising you from today."

Then they start playing tug of war with Kokoa while arguing over who's love child Kokoa really is.

Moka finally returns with a plate with cups full of different kinds of coffee and a coffee pot. She then says that we should take a break and relax for a bit. Kokoa goes running over to her screaming, "Moka help! Nobody is trying to understand me or how I feel after becoming like this! Why!? But not you, right Moka? You understand what I'm going through, right?!"

Moka gives her a loving smile while saying, "Of course, because you're my precious little sister." Kokoa seems to be getting a bit emotional, but Moka suggest that we all sit and relax together. The pink haired vampire begins to drink her coffee after saying, "Okay everyone, go ahead and have some too. You're good with coffee too, right Yukari?"

Yukari nods as she picks up a cup and drinks from it. The look on her face was priceless! She looked like she just tasted the most bitter thing in her life, like actual adulthood and responsibilities. Everyone else seemed to enjoy their coffee while Moka passed Kokoa a cream soda while saying, "And a cream soda for you Kokoa."

Kokoa seems happy about it at first as she says, "Yay! I love sweet stuff!" But then she realizes she's the only one without coffee and shouts, "Hey, how come only I get cream soda while everyone else gets coffee!?"

I look over to the midget vampire with a scowl, seeming to cause her to flinch a bit before explaining to her, "Because this school doesn't provide anything other than just black coffee and that stuff is too strong for even most adults."

"You could at least give me a try!", Kokoa shouts in her tiny revolution, trying to show how much of an adult she really is even in this tinier form.

Hmph, so that's how you want to play this? Fine, I'm game. In response to her 'challenge' I pass her my cup of coffee and tell her, "If you can down the rest of this without making the same face Yukari did then you can have more." I already drank about half the small cup, but I take mine pretty strong so she'll probably fail.

Everyone patiently watches as Kokoa takes the cup into her hands and slowly takes a small sip from it. After only a second she makes a face that I'd say was actually worse than Yukari's, seeming warped and deformed in both disgust and fear, before exclaiming, "Why is this so bitter!?"

I manage to let out another sigh at her as the vampire slams the cup on the table and shoves it away, following that up with a slight glare and telling her, "Because it's 'black coffee.' It's supposed to be bitter."

Moka tries to calm her little sister down by reaching out to her with a kind smile and saying, "I added a bit of milk to mine. You want to trade?"

As the pink haired sister extends her hands out to her sister, holding her cup of fresh coffee out for Kokoa to try, the little sister screams out, "I've had it!", before rushing off while flipping up Moka's skirt, causing Tsukune to have a massive nosebleed. Before anyone can say anything Kokoa is already gone.

After waiting for Kokoa to come back for a few minutes I down the last of my coffee, finishing off the drink. And as I place my cup on the table, I shift my gaze over to the worried Moka across from me and say, "Well, I'm going to go take a smoke break on the roof. If any of you need me I'll be there. Don't do anything stupid while I'm gone."

I make my way out the door and to the roof to take my afternoon smoke break. As I light my cigarette I wonder how much power that Haiji guy has. Could he have the power of an S class monster even though he's only a Tengu? I guess I'll find out tonight.

Through my overthinking, I hear a couple students talking about something in the courtyard and decide to listen in. One guy says, "Dude, the Karate Club and the Newspaper Club are fighting behind the school!"

The other guy shouts back at him, "What? Those newspaper guys are going to get creamed! Martial arts beat words every time!"

I can't help but groan at their banter before muttering to myself, "This better be just a rumor or there's going to be hell to pay."

I jump down from the roof to the side of the building and make my way to where the fight should be taking place. But when I get there I see the most ridiculous thing I could think of. The rest of the Newspaper Club seem to have all become child sized like Kokoa did after the effects of that pill wore off! Did they all take the drug thing Yukari made, the Suku Suku drops? They seem to be holding their own pretty well against these guys though, even in these child bodies.

While I'm stuck in a daze, I hear Haiji say, "What's going on? I got word that some of the Karate Club's idiots were causing trouble so I came running over. What's this?" When he sees all the Newspaper Club members as little girls his face flushes and a cheeky smile comes across his face before he finally speaks up and says, "Little girls running around berserk like monsters!?" As he looks the small girls up and down, his nose starts to drip with blood before he gleefully exclaims, "You're all just so cute!"

"So you actually are a lolicon.", I groan as I give him an irritated glare, this guy's a real freak.

"Yeah, I'm a lolicon, so?", he happily replies with a shit-eating grin on his face.

When the girls notice his gaze as he looks them up and down, taking in every last detail of the little girls, Kokoa is beyond furious and shouts, "Loli hentai lovers will not be tolerated!", as the group of children all attack him at once. He seems to be lost in his freakish thoughts as they all knock his ass out with one hit.

What!? He just went down like that!? H-how could he... That bastard! With my aura burning around my human form, I march over to defeated lolicon , stopping right at his head. As I tower over the disappointment below me, I see the bloodied smile across his face. I manage to hold my fury inside, only clenching my fists in my rage as I growl down at him, saying, "If you got beat by six little girls then you aren't worth my time, Haiji. Get stronger or stay out of our way."

With that out of the way, I turn my attention to my friends, who're all celebrating their victory, even Tsukune's a fucking child. It's almost comical how they beat someone like this guy really. On top of that, I never thought I'd see six small girls knock out a grown man before. "What the hell? You took that stuff too, Tsukune?", I ask the boy as I walk over to him, my eyebrow raised up a bit in curiosity.

"It seemed like an okay idea. If we're all children then we can't baby Kokoa, right?", the tiny Tsukune replies with a shrug.

I can't help but chuckle at him though, to think he'd go this far for Kokoa. As I turn my attention over to the girls, who seem to all be huddling around Kokoa, I ask Tsukune, "I guess, but now what?"

Before I can get an answer though, one of the guys in the nearby crowd who watched the fight unfold shouts, "This is impossible! Captain Haiji Miyamoto, undefeated in 100 battles has been defeated by some little girls!? What are you people?"

Moka looks over to Kokoa and says, "We did it, right Kokoa? We showed them the fearsomeness of children!"

As she hears her older sister's kind words, Kokoa begins to cry a little as she lets all the other girls embrace her in a group hug. Moka then turns her attention back to the crowd before declaring, "We are the Newspaper Club!", and the rest of the guys left standing take off running.

I can't help but laugh at the fearful cowards as they run away from a few little girls. Are they really that weak, or did these guys just intimidate them that much? I walk over to the group of little girls and as I give them a slight smile, I suggest, "Well, we better get you all inside before we get in trouble for fighting on school grounds.", to which they all nod and follow me inside.

After a few hours of waiting and awkward bust jokes between Yukari and Kurumu, the effects of the Suku Suku drops finally ware off and the others return to their normal forms. But a little after that, people started coming to our room and asking to cancel their applications for the Newspaper Club and whenever they came face to face with one of the girls they bolted for their lives, dropping their resignation slip in the process. These rumors must really be something.

Soon enough all of the people who applied to join had cancelled their applications and we're left without any new members. "What should we do?", Moka desperately questions the team, disheartened by the sudden change.

"We're going to go under.", Tsukune grumbles as he places his head in his open palm, only adding further to the despair.

I just let out a chuckle at the rumors and add my two cents, saying, "These rumors might keep us from getting members, but it also thins out the weakling, so in the end it isn't that bad."

"But we literally have nobody joining now!", Kurumu growls back at me, she's more frustrated than usual.

To everyone's surprise, Kokoa walks into the room and asks, "You all look like you have a problem, do you need some help?" Her tone's far different than before, it seems kinder, almost caring to a point. Kokoa blushes a bit before adding, "Since you said 'in any case' I'll join you guys in the Newspaper Club."

Everyone else is left baffled by the little vampire's offer to join, but not me. I knew she'd join, we're the only ones who seem to tolerate her. We end up finally getting to have that party we were going to have earlier. We all welcome her to the Newspaper Club and with another clank of our plastic cups, we enjoy the party that we thought we'd never get to have.
