Chapter 8: True Form and more of Setsuna's Past

'Why now of all times?!' Setsuna angrily thought to herself.

"Setsuna-chan! I…Is there anything that I can do?" asked Konoka.

"S-Stay away from me…at least for today!" Setsuna got away from Konoka and ran away.

"Setsuna-chan…" Konoka painfully watched Setsuna run away from her, 'Was there something that she doesn't want me to find out?...I'm her friend and we should tell each other everything!'

Konoka ran in the same direction that Setsuna ran in and tried to find her.


"Argh…damn…why now? Was it because I'm too close to her? Was it that my demon blood sensed Konoka's magic even though she never used it when I was around her?" Setsuna winced in pain as she tried to ease the pain away.

Large black wings threatened to come out, but Setsuna was trying her best to keep them within her.

'If it comes out…my 'other' half will take over and who knows what it'll do!'

"Se…Set-chan…?" Konoka wondered through the halls, "Where are you?"

Setsuna looked horrified in the direction that Konoka's voice came from, 'I can't show her what I really am!' she jumped through a window nearby and ran towards the forest.

Unfortunately, for her, Konoka saw her jump through the window and ran after her.

"Set-chan! Wait!"

Setsuna stopped running. The pain was too unbearable.

Breathing heavily, Konoka walked towards Setsuna.

"Se-Set-chan? What's wrong? Why did you run away?"

Setsuna looked at Konoka horrified as she found her, "D-Don't look!"

"What? Why?" Konoka increased her speed towards Setsuna.

"Because she's afraid to let me out." Setsuna replied in a voice that wasn't her own.

Konoka stopped dead in her tracks, "You're not Set-chan."

Setsuna gave Konoka a sad smile, "That's right. I am the 'other Setsuna'. The one the can express and do what she cannot. It is nice to finally meet you in this form Kono-chan."

"Why was she afraid to show you to me?" Konoka looked at Setsuna. Nothing much has changed, expect her raven hair turned silver white, her browns eyes were now a gentle red, and large black wings popped out of her back, making her look like a fallen dark angel.

"Because I like cute human girls such as yourself." 'Setsuna' walked closer to Konoka, "I'd say that Setsuna found a really cute one."

Konoka blushed, "Thank you, but I think that like it better when the human Setsuna says it to me."

"That's too bad." Setsuna grinned, showing her fangs, "And here I thought that I could have a chance with you. Setsuna doesn't get along with a lot of people you know. You're very lucky."

"Thank you Setsuna-san." smiled Konoka, "Can I have my Set-can back now?"

Setsuna frowned and looked hurt, "I just got here and you want me to leave? That's sad Kono-chan."

"Fine, but when can I have my Set-chan back? I wanted to find out more about her."

'Setsuna's' eyes darkened, "How 'bout I tell you. Setsuna doesn't exactly remember anything anyways…well not everything."

"I wanna hear it from her real self. I want my real Set-chan back." Konoka gave her a cute look, "You're so scary that I'm afraid that you might end up eating me."

'Setsuna' put on a fake hurt look, "Hey! That hurts my pride!"

Konoka continued to act, "But it's true. Please give her back and don't hurt me."

'Setsuna sighed, 'Alright fine. But if I go, then you won't find out who really killed her parents or how she survived."

Konoka's eyes widened, "Tell me!"

"After what you just said?"

"Please with jelly doughnuts on top?"

"You have doughnuts?!" 'Setsuna' said almost happily.

Konoka sweat dropped, "I'll give you some later, after you tell me about Set-chan's killers."

"Deal! The one that killed them…was…a girl called 'Tsuki'. I'm still not sure if that's an alias or what but she's the one that…made Setsuna kill them."

"What? Set-chan…she killed her own parents?"

"Setsuna herself no. At that time, when she saw humans playing, she went towards them and wanted to play with them. I don't know how, but they somehow knew that she was a hanyo and they started to call her names. She ran back to her home, locked the door to her room and cried. At that moment, Tsuki appeared and took control of Setsuna."

"But Set-chan never knew about it?"

'Setsuna' shook her head, "She didn't but she blames herself. It took days, but your grandfather convinced her to come to this school and tried to live normally."

"When she was a kid?"

"He came to us last year. For the past eight years, she lived by herself and trusted no one…that is…until she met you."

"What do I have that no one has? Why does Set-chan treat me so special?"

"You reminded her of our mother. She was gentle and kid like you. In a way, you resemble Satsuko, but in a way, you don't. You're a bit more…dumber than her though."

"Hey!" Konoka hit 'Setsuna's' arm, "Take that back."

"Take what back?" Setsuna shook her head a bit and rubbed her arm where Konoka hit her, "Why did you hit me Konoka?"

"You're…back to normal…"

Setsuna pulled out her sword and used the side as a mirror. No doubt about it, she eyes were slowly turning from red to brown and her hair white to black.

"Did…anything happen?" Setsuna said uneasily.

"Like what?" asked Konoka.

"Nothing…never mind…"

Konoka linked her arms with Setsuna's, "Let's get something to eat! I'm starving!"

Setsuna smiled nervously, "Are you sure nothing happened Konoka? I'm craving for doughnuts!"


Me: And end! Sorry, but it'll end there for now!

Setsuna: What did you do to me?!

Me: What are you talking about? I didn't do anything -acts innocent-

Setsuna: I don't have cravings for doughnuts!

Konoka: Aw, but it's cute Set-chan.

Setsuna: O-Ojou-sama... -blushes-

Me: And here I thought that demons loved doughnuts…Anyways thanks tears of the soul, Bishimimou, PureWiings, shiroki, krugern, setsuna-kun, Dana Kishimoto, animeaics, Demon Cat08, and Natasia Tokado for reviewing! See ya all next time!

"Ok let's get class started. I am your English and homeroom teacher Negi Springfield. Nice to meet you all." smiled Negi.

"Great, we have the brat from both homeroom and English. This sucks." grumbled Asuna.

"Aw come on Asuna, don't be too hard on him." Konoka was secretly looking at Setsuna who sat two rows ahead of her, 'Set-chan…you didn't have to do that…'
