"So, that's what you've been so obsessed with this whole time." Rei's voice startled Hikaru so much that he actually jumped to the other side of the room with a large wet spot in his pants. "Rei? Were you looking over my shoulder that whole time?" Rei scratched his head with a pondering look on his face, "Let me think… yeah, pretty much."

"You're such a stalker, Bro!" Hikaru exclaimed. Rei laughed a bit, "Little Brother, you may want to dry yourself up." Now Rei was just plain laughing his head off. Hikaru looked down and noticed the giant wet spot in his pants. "AAAHH!" Hikaru shouted out and covered himself up with his hands, an embarrassed look on his face. "No fair, you scared the living shit out of me!"

"Yeah, but it was funny though." Rei responded, laughing just a tad bit quieter. "Anyways, I see why you're crushing on her." Hikaru blushed, "I don't have a crush on her." Rei shook his head, "Dude, you can't hide it from me. Besides, she is a good catch. You sure do know how to pick them, Little Brother."

"Hey, don't go trying to get her behind my back." Hikaru said, with a surprisingly serious tone. "Don't worry, Little Brother. She's all yours." With that, Rei left Hikaru in his room, this time Hikaru watched his brother until he knew the Rei was gone.

The next morning, during P.E. class, the boys were all doing their preparation stretches. Looking up a bit, Hikaru noticed a shadowy figure standing amongst the trees. Could it be Rei? Hikaru hadn't seen his big brother all day. No, the shadowed figure didn't have the distinct curve of Rei's hood. Hikaru just disregarded the creepy person and continued his warm-ups.

That same morning, Rei decided to look into this girl that his brother was so infatuated with. "Mizore Shirayuki, huh?" he mumbled to himself, "Let's see what you're all about…" Once classes began, Rei searched the entire campus with his telepathic capabilities, trying to find a face matching the one he had seen the night before. "Strange, nothing in any of the classrooms, or the dorms."

Then suddenly, a match! "Strange, she's not even on the school grounds…" As it turned out, she was in the woods, traveling West, towards the P.E. courts. "Got you." Rei engulfed himself in shadows and disappeared. Shortly after, Rei reappeared right on a branch near the P.E. courts. Just as he had expected, Mizore was there, behind a tree, looking at the courts.

Taking a glance, Rei was stunned. It was the boys' class! She was watching them do their stretches… "That's just wrong…" Rei thought to himself with a stunned look on his face, "She's a perv…" But that thought was quickly erased as the words came out of Mizore's mouth, "Stretch it, Tsukune… all the way…"

"Oh my god, she's not a perv, she's a stalker!" The thought kept rushing through Rei's mind as he was drawn aback with shock. Unfortunately, he was drawn aback a bit too much, and he fell off of the branch that he was previously poised on. "Huh? Who's there?" Mizore yelled out. The only thing that could come to Rei's mind was, "Shit. Now the stalker knows I'm stalking her…"

With that thought, Rei vanished just before Mizore got to the spot where he fell. Sadly, no fall goes unmarked. "What the… who's there? Who's following me!" Mizore shouted, revealing her ice claws. Seeing this from yet another branch, Rei realized, "A Snow Woman, interesting that Hikaru would be into her of all people. I suppose opposites DO attract. Might as well have a bit of fun with this."

"Here I am," Rei spoke as he appeared right behind Mizore, almost breathing down her neck. Mizore jumped a bit out of fright and slashed at the area behind her. "Come on, certainly you're faster than that." Rei taunted, leaning against a nearby tree to Mizore's right. Mizore fired a set of 4 icy projectiles right at him, but just before impact, he vanished again, reappearing right in front of Mizore.

"Hey, cool down. That shouldn't be too difficult for a snow girl." As he said this, he brushed Mizore's hair back. "Don't touch me!" Mizore shouted in an aggravated tone, slashing away at her mysterious foe. This time, he didn't bother disappearing at all. He simply dodged every cut and swipe she attempted.

"I would suppose it's my turn?" Rei said with some sarcastic tone to his voice. "Take your best shot, Stalker." Mizore said, taunting him. "Fine," as Rei said this, he simply snapped his fingers and the shadows on the ground started to conform into 3-dimensional black figures that closely represented Rei.

"Nice trick, but I think I can match it." As Mizore said this, she fired the same number of ice spikes as Rei's shadowy copies into the ground. Upon impact, the spikes grew into ice figures resembling Mizore. Seeing this, Rei grinned, "Well, come on then. Let's see what else you can do." Accepting this challenge, Mizore started running so fast, she could barely be seen.

From behind, Rei could hear a slight 'Whoosh' sound. He crouched and, with perfect form, did a 180-degree stepping turn. He came up and grabbed Mizore's arm without even looking. "What?" Mizore thought, "how did he manage to do that?" Rei smiled a devilish smile, and pulled Mizore close to him. "No need to be so aggressive, Popsicle." With this, he put his head against hers. Disgusted, Mizore tried pulling away from Rei, but his grip was locked, he really was stronger than he looked.

"You know," Mizore began, "I can think of something that I would love to do to you…" She came in closer than they were when Rei pulled her towards him. "Oh, really? Enlighten me." Rei said with an incredibly lustful tone. Mizore pulled her lollipop from her mouth and puckered her lips, coming towards Rei's mouth slowly. Out of the blue, she opened her eyes with a demonic glare and blew her frosty breath right at Rei.

"Don't you know?" Mizore said to Rei, who was now encased in a huge block of ice, "Never mess with a Snow Woman." Putting her lollipop back in her mouth, Mizore turned her back on the icicle of Rei. "There's just one problem…" Rei's voice echoed in Mizore's head, "Above all else, never mess with a monster like me." Mizore turned around to face the boy she had frozen.

To her disbelief, Rei was standing there, still inside of the ice, but not frozen how she had him. He was visibly breathing, and he was glaring at her from underneath his hood with glowing dark purple eyes. It was an unbelievable sight, as if he had melted all but the outer layer of the block. "Let this be a lesson to you, for all future battles." With his voice still ringing in her head, he simply took a small step back inside of his case and stuck out his hand with his fingers curved. "Never underestimate your opponent." A large wave of black energy came blasting out of his hand, shattering the case and blasting Mizore back, through a tree and against another.

Rei walked up to the weakened girl and lifted her chin up. "Just be glad that this all wasn't real." With that, Mizore awoke from her daze, in the same spot that Rei had appeared behind her at the beginning of their, apparently fake, battle. Looking up, Rei had her in his arms. Mizore gasped and scrambled out of his arms. "I wouldn't try to walk. Usually people are physically weakened after my illusions." Mizore quickly realized that he was right, collapsing to her knees. Rei scooped her up once again, "Hold on, this might make you a bit dizzy."

"Why should I trust you?" Mizore said this with a quite cross tone. "I don't intend to harm you, just hold on to me, I'm taking you to the Nurse's office." Rei said this in the same soothing tone that he used when Hikaru was afraid. Mizore reluctantly wrapped her arms around Rei's surprisingly broad chest. Out of nowhere, everything went black, but in that same amount of time, they were suddenly in the Nurse's office.

Rei gently placed the beautiful weakened girl on one of the beds and vanished in a black cloud. "I don't know who you are," Mizore said quietly to herself, "but thank you."
