Gamera68: When will Outer Moka have her turn? My friend, you'll just have to wait and see. In a very quiet voice I then whisper, "Psst...psst, scroll down, it happens in this chapter." XD

SupernalGodzilla: Trouble is brewing for Tsukune? That is the understatement of the year.

the real sonic1: Well what happened was that I was about to update, when I saw I had a new review. I went to read it, and it was yours. And since it would only take a second I went ahead and wrote a response to your review in the chapter. I enjoy talking with anyone who has similar interests as me, especially my readers.

Tsukune Blackout: I was planning on giving Tsukune a new outfit in one of the upcoming chapters, however I'm afraid while it will be black, it won't be anything like Batman's, Scorpion's, or whoever the newest main character in the Assassins Creed games is. But thank you for caring enough to give me your suggestion. :)

This is one of my favorite chapters so far, so I'd really appreciate as many reviews telling me what all of you thought about this as possible for this one. And I really hope you read this one slave, I'd love your input on it.

Bam, here you go, my longest chapter to date! Standing at a total of seventeen thousand nine hundred fourty two words exactly.

Okay that's enough of that, here's chapter five/episode five of season four. Please read, enjoy and review.


Tsukune's eyes opened slowly, and once they were it took a moment for his vision to clear. He yawned as he stretched out the best he could with Ruby lying next to him on her stomach, her arm over his body. He looked over at her and let a smile cross his face, she was sleeping peacefully and he had helped her get that smile that was on her face. However as he felt the urge to feed, he decided it best to get up before it got too strong, so as quickly and as quietly as he could, he removed her arm from his person and climbed out of the bed. And then he had to do his best to take his sheet off without waking her up, because until last night she had been a virgin, which had surprised him. While she didn't really have much opportunity to be with anyone, she was nineteen, he thought she would have broken her hymen somehow someway by now. Well he was wrong, so now he had to throw his newest sheet into the dirty clothes hamper and drag it to the laundry room, while he would usually never mind, he was honestly starting to get annoyed with washing blood stained sheets, mainly because he was worried about getting caught washing them.

But today was Sunday, so he would have the whole laundry room to himself. So he got dressed in a short sleeve black shirt and some blue jeans with a few holes in the legs of them, and not for style purposes either, it had been an incident with a moth girl and things got hairy. From there he went over to his bed to check on Ruby once more, when he decided to check his first dresser drawer in case he forgot anything dirty, but when he opened it the sight of handcuffs greeted him. And these weren't no fuzzy play handcuffs, these were the real deal. The young man's eyes widened a little bit as he thought of what Ruby wanted to do with them, when a voice interrupted his thoughts, "Don't worry Master, their for you to use on me, not the other way around."

Tsukune then turned his head to look at Ruby once more, who was still naked, in his bed and not trying to hide it. "I wanted us to use them last night, so as to get you acquainted with the simple stuff first, but I got too caught up and I forgot about them."

The young man couldn't help but think, "Is she really a fricking full blown Masochist?"

That's when every sexual thing and anything remotely related to the word master she said raced through his mind, as he tried to figure out how serious this was. Really thinking about it she was definitely a submissive, but she didn't seem to get off on pain, at least not that he had seen. "She never looked happy or pleased at all during battle, so maybe I can handle this..."

Not being able to hold it in anymore though, Tsukune couldn't help but ask, "Ruby, you don't get off on pain...do you?"

A very seductive look took it's place on Ruby's face as she replied with, "Only if you're the one hurting me Master."

Tsukune held his nose closed as he felt a small nose bleed coming on. While he hadn't ever thought of trying those kinds of things, he couldn't deny that Ruby was really making him think he might like some of them. Nevertheless though, he could never bring himself to harm his girls or anything close to it, so this would be a very hard road for him to go down.

Ruby could see this internal struggle and stood up, before leaning in and whispering in the young man's ear, "Don't worry Master, I'll help you dominate me."

That did it, Tsukune knew he had to get out of here, now, otherwise he might not be able to control himself. So he slipped on some black sneakers, grabbed his hamper and proceeded to hurriedly exit the room, saying this as he did so, "I-I've gotta got do my laundry Ruby, see you in a little bit!"

Ruby had seen the beginnings of an erection before he left, so she had a smile on her face even though she was alone.


A few hours later...

Ruby was sharing her experience with Tsukune and comparing it to Mizore's and Kurumu's, all three of them seeming to really enjoy talking about it, while Moka sat off to the side in the tree, sulking, which Yukari noticed. So she scooted over to Moka and proceeded to ask, "What's wrong Moka?"

The pink haired vampire then put on the best fake smile she could, and tried to assure Yukari it was nothing, "Nothings wrong Yukari, I was just thinking is all."

Yukari let a small frown cross her face then, "It didn't look like nothing, just a moment ago you looked pretty sad to me."

The vampire then gave a nervous giggle, as she once more tried to let the young witch know she was just fine, "What? Me, sad? About what? I'm finally with Tsukune, my little sister isn't trying to kill me anymore, all of us are getting along and becoming best friends, and everyday I see a smile on Tsukune's face, I couldn't be happier."

Yukari wasn't sure what to do at the moment, she was sure Moka was upset about something, but with every word she said that fake smile seemed to give way to a new and genuine one, and yet the look in her eyes said something was wrong. There was mixed signals and the young witch wasn't sure whether to push further on the subject, or just let it go for the time being.

With a now genuine smile on her face, Moka convinced Yukari to drop it by saying, "Everything's fine Yukari, now go back over there and talk to the others, I know you want to talk to them about your time with Tsukune as well. I'll be fine, I promise."

Yukari gave a hesitant smile, "O-okay."

The young witch then proceeded to slowly make her way over to the other girls, before she could get too far though she cast a glance back at Moka, who was still smiling and was now gesturing for her to go along to the other girls.

Yukari's smile widened a tiny bit, and she said to herself, "I'll try again another time."

And then the young witch finished walking over to the other girls and jumped into the conversation.

Once Yukari was no longer focusing on her, Moka sighed. And as she did her rosary began glowing faintly, as Inner Moka began to speak, "You know you wouldn't be moping right now if you had listened to me."

"How was I supposed to do...'that' with Tsukune the morning after you did? I was so embarrassed I couldn't think straight, plus...he needed his rest considering how rough you were with him."

"He didn't seem to mind, he even reincorporated my 'rough' actions near the end."

Outer Moka didn't seem to hear Inner, as she whispered to herself, but loud enough for it to reach her rosary, "And...how could I ever compare to you?"

Inner was silent for several moments before answering that, "That's what I always ask myself when it comes to you."

Outer's eyes widened quite a bit at that, before wrapping her right hand around her rosary as she spoke once more, "Wh-what do you mean by that?"

"You were his first friend, you were the first one he fell for, almost everything he did in the first two years here was for you. I always asked myself, how could I compete with that? How could I compare to the one he was willing to sacrifice everything for? And now I find myself with him, I was even the first to be intimate with him, it's like a dream come true. And yet, I still can't help but feel that I'm inferior to you in his eyes, and that I always will be. But I can live with that, as long as I can be with him always."

Outer was about to reassure Inner with everything she had that that wasn't true, but before she could she was cut off by said silver haired counterpart. "There's absolutely no reason for you to be worried about being the last one he lays with, you two share a special bond, just like the other girls do, but this one's different. You were his first friend ever, you were the first person he ever truly loved with all his heart, and when you have your night with him it'll be just as special as if you were his first, trust me. So stop hesitating and make tonight your night."


Down the cliff side at the bus stop...

Tsukune and Kokoa stood about a dozen feet from each other at the bus stop once more, preparing for their third round of training. Vladimir stood at the base of the cliff, deciding to watch from down here with them, while the rest of the girls and Kyouko were in the tree once more.

The seventeen year old and fifteen year old just stared at each other for several seconds, before they charged. They closed in on each other and began to spar for the third time in an hour.

Kokoa went for a right straight, which Tsukune caught in his left hand, and then he went for a right hook, which the red head knocked away with her left forearm by pushing it against his forearm with all her strength. She wasted no time in counterattacking either, doing so by shooting her left leg upwards, aiming to kick him in the side of the head. He reacted by letting go of her fist and ducking down, before executing a sweep kick, forcing Kokoa's right leg out from underneath her, this was made easier since her left leg was in the air, knocking her off her feet. She landed on her back, and Tsukune was already going for the next attack by bringing back his right fist, but she attacked first, doing so by raising her legs and kicking with them together, slamming both her feet into his stomach, which he took full force, not being able to guard in time.

Tsukune hunched over as a bit of blood made it's way past his lips, and Kokoa used this time to jump to her feet, before raising her left leg to bring down for an axe kick. And as it came down, the young man could see it, so taking his hands away from his gut, where they had gone on instinct, he crossed his arms and guarded against it. The force behind the kick forced his arms closer to him and made him take a step back, but the guard held, keeping him from being hit. Kokoa tried to force it through his guard for several moments, before retracting her leg, which Tsukune tried to take advantage of by throwing a right straight punch. The young vampire swayed to her right, before shooting her leg up and slamming it full force into Tsukune's left side, causing him to grimace in pain and for his body to jerk to the right a bit from the force of the impact.

Before the red head could pull her leg away though, Tsukune gripped it with his left arm so as to keep it there, while he raised his right leg so as to kick her directly in the stomach. As he went for the kick though, Kokoa brought down both arms and blocked it, successfully keeping her from taking any damage. Unlike her though, Tsukune took his leg away immediately and put it back on the ground, before grabbing a hold of the leg he already had with his right hand. He let go with his left arm and used his left hand instead, now having a hold of her leg with both hands, before throwing it upwards as hard as he could, taking the young vampire off her feet once more, the momentum he forced into her leg as he threw it upwards taking her whole body with it.

As she fell back Tsukune moved in for the metaphorical kill, and as she landed on her back once more, she couldn't stop him as he buried his left fist into her gut as she hit the ground, causing a bit of blood to come flying out of her mouth from the force of the punch. As he did this he also wrapped his right hand around her throat, their chosen gesture for the kill.

Tsukune was now kneeling over Kokoa, both knees on the ground on either side of her abdomen, his right hand gripping her throat, and panting heavily, his eyes locked on her face. Kokoa stared back, also panting pretty heavily, her eyes focused only on his face.


Ko was flapping his wings in place, a little over twenty feet above his mistress and Tsukune, as he spoke, "This episode's showdown took, oh wait, this isn't the episode showdown, Wee? Oh, that's good, that means miss Kokoa didn't lose in an official fight, Wee! Which means no fuming mistress later, Wee!"

Ko then proceeded to fly off.


Vladimir was slowly approaching the two combatants, a good sized smirk on his face, that being there since it showed that Tsukune was making progress. This had been his first victory over Kokoa yet, admittedly she didn't have her Ko hammer, but it was still pretty good.

As Tsukune stared down at Kokoa's face, her scent began filling his nostrils, combined with the smell of her blood, and the urge to feed once again emerged, and it was stronger than ever. It was so strong that it began to affect Tsukune's senses, his vision began blurring, all sound was replaced by a ringing in his ears, and all his thoughts began to fade as the urge began to take over everything. "Feed! Feed! Feed! Feed on her!"

Without any idea he was doing so, Tsukune began to tighten his grip on Kokoa's neck, beginning to cut off her circulation. As he did this her eyes grew wide, however she did not fight him. And as his grip began to grow tighter and tighter, she forced these words out, "T-Tsukune, wh-why? W-why are y-you...?"

That's when the two made eye contact, and the look in her eyes hit him like ton of bricks, it was if they were questioning him on what she did wrong, like it was her fault that he was doing this, and that snapped him out of it. He let go of her and scrambled away from her, now sitting several feet away from her, still panting heavily. Tsukune looked at his right hand, it was shaking, "I...I just...I was choking Kokoa...what the fuck is wrong with me!?"

He was horrified and was on the brink of tears, Kokoa could see this from where she sat on her knees, rubbing her throat so as to try and relieve some of the pain. "Tsukune...?"

He couldn't handle this, "I...I need to get away, I have to go!"

Tsukune scrambled to his feet, before dashing in the direction back to the school.

Kokoa called out to him as he ran, "Tsukune wait!"

She had to catch up with him, she was pretty sure she knew what had just happened and she needed to be there for him. But as she got to her feet Vladimir was already by her side, and the girls were only a few feet away. They stopped after they were close enough, before Moka asked, "What happened?"

Her voice was filled with concern, just like the eyes of all the other girls.

Vladimir had seen what happened, but as he opened his mouth to explain, Kokoa cut him off, "Nothing, nothing at all."

Vladimir looked at the fifteen year old then, "You can't keep this from them, Tsukune-"

Kokoa, a look of ferocious anger on her face, cut him off once more, "I said nothing happened!"

With that the young vampire took off after Tsukune, while the other girls looked on in confusion. As they tried to follow though, Vladimir convinced them it would be best if they didn't.


Kokoa followed after Tsukune all the way to the abandoned courtyard, no one being out of their dorm and on campus since it was Sunday. She came from behind him and locked him in an embrace from behind, and then did her best to root him to that spot. "Tsukune, stop running!"

He shook his head vigorously, "I can't! I have to get away from you, I can't control myself, I...I could have...I could have killed you back there!"

"That's not your fault! You're going through blood withdrawal, I can tell! You need blood, now!"

With that Kokoa let go of Tsukune, before putting herself in front of him, pulling her shirt collar to the side and exposing her neck, "Take some, it'll make you feel better."

Tsukune hadn't calmed down in the slightest, and he flinched as she said that, "I...I can't! If I give in, the-then...I'll be one step closer to becoming that thing!"

Kokoa's eyes widened considerably at those words, and tears began to sting her eyes. Before Tsukune even knew what happened, Kokoa had brought her hand back and slapped him across the face, which got him to focus on her, a look of surprise on his face. "You idiot! You're telling me you haven't fed even once since becoming a ghoul!? I thought you didn't like my scent, I thought you were feeding on at least one of the other girls! If I had known...I would have forced you to drink from me!"

Tsukune was near lost for words, "Wh-why would you want me to feed on you?"

Tears were racing down Kokoa's face at this point, "We vampires drink blood to survive Tsukune, you know that! You may only be half vampire, but that doesn't mean the rule doesn't apply to you! You've gone so long without blood Tsukune, you're body is probably in the early stages of shutting down! Don't you understand!? If you don't feed, you'll die!"

Tsukune's eyes widened quite a bit at those words, the urge he had been forcing himself to fight, the thing that he was sure would keep him from becoming this beast inside him that he feared becoming, is what he had to do if he wanted to continue living.

His attention was solely on Kokoa as she once again embraced him, though doing so from the front this time. "Tsukune, please, you have to drink soon. It has to be today, I don't care who it is you drink from, it doesn't have to be me, but you have to feed from someone, okay?"

Tsukune's mind was racing, his thoughts were in a whirl, but Kokoa was crying, her voice was panicky and she needed to be comforted, so he returned the embrace and began stroking her hair with his right hand. "O-okay, I will. Just stop crying baby."

Kokoa's heart swelled as he called her that, and it caused her tears to keep going for a minute. Nevertheless she looked up at him, before standing on her toes so she could kiss him. From there they held each other for a minute or so, but when they pulled away it wasn't because it was their choice, it was because they were interrupted...

"Tsukune Aono!"

The two lovers pulled away from each other at the sound of someone shouting one of their names, and then proceeded to look around, and when they didn't see anyone they looked up at the roof of the main building of Yokai academy, and standing there on the edge was someone that Tsukune hadn't seen hide nor hare of in almost a week...Fang Fang Huang.

"I'm here to issue a challenge! If I can defeat you in battle, then you have no choice but to come back to Hong Kong with me and join the Huang family!"

Tsukune wiped the tears from his eyes and just continued to stare up at Fang Fang in bewilderment, "Are you serious!? Are you really willing to fight me over this!?"

Kokoa wiped her tears away, and let her anger take over, she had been having a moment with Tsukune, admittedly it was brought on by something bad but nevertheless it was a moment, and this guy had just ruined it. "Get down here asshole and say it to his face! Just watch what happens!"

Kokoa really wanted her Ko hammer at this point...

"Do you accept the challenge Tsukune!?"

Tsukune really didn't need this right now, but he had a feeling if he didn't put a stop to this here, that it would come back to bite him in the ass later, so despite his better judgement he began gathering his monster energy. "Fine, if it'll get you off my back about it permanently, then let's get this over with!"

Fang Fang let a smirk cross his face at that point, before closing his eyes and taking a deep breath through his nose. When he breathed out he opened his eyes once more, this time however a third sideways eye opened in his forehead as well. From there his monster energy began to fluctuate erratically, which Kokoa could tell but Tsukune couldn't. He put his arms out on either side of him, palms open, as he continued to gather his monster energy, before bringing them closer to his body, his hands now facing each other. He closed a good deal of distance between them, but before his hands could actually touch, he threw them out in front of him, while fully extending his arms. It was almost as if he was touching the air itself as a medium sized red transmutation circle appeared where his hands met said air, before it expanded rapidly for several seconds, and then in a flash of light a medium sized flaming bird appeared and the circle disappeared. "Summoning: Phoenix!"

Tsukune was impressed, but he wasn't shocked, he had seen a lot of weird things at this school, it was getting hard to shock him these days.

Kokoa's only response was, "Bring it!"

So Fang Fang then commanded the bird to do his bidding, "Attack Tsukune Aono!"

With that the mighty person sized bird came soaring down towards Tsukune, but as he and Kokoa prepared to fight it, something happened...


The red head was tackled to the ground, and being as feisty as she was she tried to fight back, which had her and whoever tackled her wrestling for dominance in the position so as to attack the other, which had them rolling onto their backs over and over again, moving them a little further away from Tsukune with every roll. It stopped after a few seconds with Kokoa on top, and she used that to see just who tackled her before attacking them, and from their appearance she knew who it was, since Tsukune had explained what she looked like, it was Ling Ling, Fang Fang's sister.

Despite being on the bottom she remained calm as she said, "This fight is between Tsukune and my Brother, I won't allow you to interfere."

Kokoa's scowl grew at that, "We'll see about that!"

With that the fifteen year old proceeded to punch the older girl in the face, quite hard too. Her head reacted properly to the force of the impact, but no blood came, she made no noise of pain, and as she looked back at Kokoa's face she showed no sign of being hit at all, it was like she hadn't even felt the attack, like it hadn't happened. Annoyed by this, Kokoa proceeded to begin pounding on the older girls face, wailing on her with her fists, so as to cause some kind of harm to her.

This continued for almost a whole minute, before Kokoa felt something slash her stomach and she was consumed by searing pain and sent flying off the older girl. When she hit the ground she grabbed her stomach with both hands on instinct, as if it would somehow lessen the pain, and stayed there for several seconds, gritting her teeth so as to keep herself from crying out. And by the time the pain had faded, and she forced herself to her feet, the other girl was on her feet and was waiting for her, giving her a chance to recover, which stung her pride a bit.

Now that her opponent was on her feet, Ling Ling proceeded to explain something to her, "You can't harm me, for you see I am already dead..."

Ling Ling then put her hands on her head, before removing it, moving it side to side while she held it in her hands, and then talking from her disembodied head, "I'm what's known as a Hopping Corpse, so I'm afraid that there isn't anything that you can do to cause me pain."

With that said Ling Ling reattached her head to her neck, and just stood there, waiting for Kokoa to respond, attack, or whatever else the red head might do.

The pain was now just a memory to Kokoa, nevertheless she realized the predicament she was in, "You've got to be kidding me..."


Tsukune wasn't sure what happened, but Kokoa was no longer by his side and was now fighting someone a little over a dozen feet from him, so he was going to fight this thing alone, like he had thought he was going to in the first place.

The Phoenix swooped down upon Tsukune for the first attack, but the young man managed to jump to the side, successfully avoiding the attack. However as he turned around to launch an attack of his own, the Phoenix was already back for more, coming in for an attack again, so all he had time to do was dodge. This pattern would continue a few more times, all the young man having time to do is dodge, so as to keep himself from being hit.

By the tenth time of this happening though Tsukune ducked directly under the attack, which left the bird defenseless to a counterattack, so the young man sent all the monster energy he was channeling into his right fist as he shot his arm upward, ramming his fist into the Phoenix's underbelly and through it. This devastating blow was the end of the Phoenix as it burned even brighter for a second or two, before it was consumed by it's own flame and bursting into ashes.

Before Tsukune could reassess his situation now that the Phoenix was gone, his attention was pulled to Fang Fang, who was currently coming down towards him at a high velocity, getting ready to attack. "Defend yourself Tsukune!"

Fang Fang was coming down fast with a right straight, and Tsukune, not having time to block, decided to force sixty percent of his monster energy into his blood stream like he did with Kokoa and Vladimir, so as to match his attack, since that's all he could think of at the moment.

So with all that energy pumping through him, he shot his right arm straight forward at an upward angle, slamming his right fist full force into Fang Fang's, causing both their monster energies to fluctuate more erratically than ever as they clashed. Their clash lasted only a moment as Tsukune's strength was too great, Fang Fang's arm was forced backwards from the force and the sound of his arm breaking rang in his ears.

Fang Fang managed to land on his feet only a pace behind Tsukune, but his left hand was on his right arm, holding it as it hang limply at his side, as if it would lessen the pain, as he gritted his teeth in a pain so great it was almost agony. He then couldn't help but fall to his knees, still clutching his broken arm with his good one, but he gave no whimpers or cries that showed he was hurt.

Tsukune's arm was at his side once more, and he was panting. He had been training with Kokoa for a little over an hour, and now this, and then there was his blood withdrawal, he was near exhaustion.

That's when Fang Fang spoke, "You shouldn't drop your guard like that Tsukune."

Before the young man could ask what he meant, a flash of fire caught his eye and the Phoenix was once more before him, it had literally risen from it's ashes. "Don't you know what Phoenix's are infamous for? They are almost invincible."

The flaming bird flew high into the air, before turning itself face downward and began soaring down towards Tsukune. It was too fast, he had no time to dodge, and he didn't have enough energy to fight it either, he couldn't win this fight like this...

Just before it could reach Tsukune however, a hand pierced it through it's chest, however instead of burning into ashes like last time, it disintegrated into them, no fire involved this time, and the one who did this was...Vladimir. "That's enough. Mr. Aono has had a strenuous day today, he had been battling for an hour before even accepting your challenge boy, and yet he was still able to injure you so, I think it's fair to say this victory belongs to him."

All eyes were on Vladimir at this point, Tsukune's, Fang Fang's, Kokoa's and Ling Ling's. Behind the seven foot tall counselor was Moka, Kurumu, Yukari, Mizore, Ruby and Kyouko. Them all being here since most of them were able to feel Tsukune's monster energy, as well as a type of monster energy they hadn't felt before, said energy belonging to Fang Fang.

At the info Vladimir provided, Fang Fang hung his head, "I see...you're right. If he could fight for so long and still injure me so, then he deserves victory. I concede Tsukune, you win."

Despite his loss, Fang Fang still had on a friendly sort of smirk on his face as he got to his feet.


Ko was flying overhead at this point, nearly thirty feet above everyone while he spoke, "This episode's showdown took, oh wait, this isn't the episode showdown either, Wee? Then why did this happen, Wee!? When the hell did this guy's story become about fighting instead of bouncing tits and pantie shots, Wee!?"

The bat then proceeded to fly off in a huff.


As Tsukune turned around to face Fang Fang, he was glomped by all of his girls except Kokoa, nearly knocking him off his feet in the process.

"Tsukune!"

Kokoa on the other hand dusted herself off and walked over to Tsukune before hugging him with the rest of the girls.

As Tsukune tried to reassure all the girls, besides Kokoa who knew what was going on, that he was okay, Ling Ling had made her way over to her brother.

Before she could speak to him though, he took a step forward so as to speak to Tsukune, "Tsukune, I would like to, if you would allow me, to start hanging out with you and your...family, from now on."

"F-family?"

Tsukune then looked down at all his girls as they all tried to hug him, pushing each other out of the way to get more of him in their grasp, he couldn't help but think, "I could barely be considered apart of my human family now, the girls, even Vladimir and Gin...they might just be my new family."

So as a genuine smile spread across his face, Tsukune answered him, "That'd be fine Fang Fang. I guess that means we're officially friend then huh?"

Fang Fang's grin turned into a smile at that, "Indeed I think it does."


Several hours later...

Tsukune was currently lying down on his bed, he had showered and was now in a pair of white boxers, staring up at his ceiling as he did. None of the girls had ambushed him in his room tonight, and yet when he went to wave to Moka before he lied down, she wasn't there, her light was off and her curtain was closed. He couldn't help but wonder why she had gone to bed early. She usually went to sleep about this time, but if her darkened room was any indication, she had gone to sleep by the time he had entered his bathroom to take a shower.

His thoughts then took a different turn, they came to what he had said he'd do, how he told Kokoa he would drink from someone before the day was over. He had lied, and he knew it when he said it, he just couldn't bring himself to do it, he just couldn't hurt them and feed on their life source like that. He wasn't sure how, but he was sure that his feeding would be so violent and so monstrous, that even Inner Moka would cringe. While there was no way to be a hundred percent sure about that, Tsukune wasn't willing to take the chance. This thing beneath the surface of his skin was made of all the darkness inside him, he had heard those words directly from Vladimir's mouth, and that frightened him out of his mind. Not for himself, but for his girls, he wondered just how they would feel about him if he became the beast that lied just beneath the surface of his skin, and he worried that he would hurt them again, and when he thought about doing something like that to them again...he felt like he should end himself so that he'd never get the chance to harm those perfect girls.

Before his thoughts could grow darker than that, Tsukune's train of thought was derailed by someone knocking on his door.

Not sure who it could be, since the girls usually used his window, or let themselves in, he got out of his bed and made his way over to the door in just his boxers. He unlocked the door and proceeded to open it, once he did though he wished he had put something on before doing so, cause it was Moka on the other side of the door.

Both Tsukune and Moka had light blushes on their faces at that point, "H-hey there Moka."

It took a bit of effort on her part, but Moka was able to make eye contact instead of looking away in embarrassment, "Hi Tsukune, um, may I come in?"

"O-of course, sorry about that."

The young man let her in before closing the door and walking around her so she didn't have to turn to face him.

"Tsukune, there's s-something I wanted to t-talk to you about. More like something I wanted to ask you."

The young man's blush managed to go away after those words, thinking maybe she needed advice, or some emotional support. "What is it Moka?"

Moka's blush began growing much darker as she told him what she wanted, "I wanted t-to ask you, i-if you'd...if you would..."

"Whatever it is Moka, you can ask me, I promise I'll do my best to help you if you tell me what you need."

Moka's blush was almost as red as the blood sea outside as she finally asked him, "W-would you p-please, d-do with me, what you-you've done with th-the other girls?"

Tsukune's eyes widened a bit and his face was consumed with a blush almost as dark as Moka's at those words, "Wh-what?"

Moka summoned up all of her courage as she continued to look into his eyes and cupped his cheeks with her hands as she elaborated by saying, "Please, make love to me Tsukune."

"Moka."

"Tsukune."

"Moka."

"Tsukune."

"Moka."

"Tsukune."

As she leaned in for a kiss, Tsukune met her halfway. The kiss lasted for several long seconds before they pulled away, and as they did Tsukune spoke, "Anything for you Moka."

They then got to the process of taking her clothes off. And from there foreplay came into into the mix, but only on Tsukune's part, since Moka was too shy to try and do that her first time.

Soon enough though she lie naked on his bed, him hovering above her. "Are you ready Moka?"

She nodded her head as she spoke, "Yes Tsukune."

With that the young man spread her thighs with his knee, before entering her.

This night would stay with the both of them for the rest of their lives.


The next day...

As Tsukune's eyes opened his vision was filled with pink, said pink being Moka's hair. He was holding her while she was facing him, but her hair was covering her face. He proceeded to fix that by brushing most of it back behind her ear, and once he was done he let a smile cross his face. "Last night was just as amazing as the ones I had with the other girls...I can't believe how lucky I am. I have seven perfect girls who love me and are willing to share me, it was if I died and gone to heaven. I don't deserve them...but I'm selfish and I refuse to let anyone take them from me."

Tsukune decided to just lie there for a few minutes and stare at Moka, he could afford to since he didn't have to hand wash his sheets this time. Since both Moka's shared a body, there was no hymen to break last night, though Moka did still experience a bit of pain, showing that while she didn't have a hymen anymore, she was definitely a virgin, even if the other Moka had been with him already.

As he stared at Moka though, his vision began to blur and he began to feel the urge to feed. He fought it, he fought it as hard as he could, but after a minute or two the urge became too great, so Tsukune had no choice but to get up and take his shower, so that he didn't bite her.


An hour later...

Tsukune was walking with all his girls and Kyouko, Ruby was with them because Mikogami said she could walk her lover to his homeroom, they were in the middle of the courtyard, surrounded by hundreds of other students, when Fang Fang and Ling Ling came into view. Both siblings offered a wave, Fang Fang using his good arm, which Tsukune and Moka returned, but none of the other girls did. When they were close enough to the siblings to speak, Tsukune proceeded to say, "Come on you two, you said you wanted to start hanging out with us right? So get over here."

Fang Fang offered a smile as he did as Tsukune said, Ling Ling following behind him.

The ten teenagers then proceeded to talk amongst themselves as they drew closer to the main building.

However soon everybody in the entire courtyard, including those ten, were staring at the direction of the bus stop as the very loud sound of a motor vehicle making it's way there caught their attention. They didn't have to stare long, because soon enough a large and heavily armored van entered their field of vision. It drove out of the forest, up into the courtyard, and soon enough students had to begin moving out of the way so they didn't get run over, which cleared a path to the center of the courtyard for the vehicle. It stopped dead center in the courtyard and cut it's engine, which allowed all the students to begin hearing themselves think once more, since the engine had been so damn loud.

This caused so much ruckus everyone was exiting the buildings of the academy, including the faculty, to see what was going on. In only a few moments almost the entire student body was in the courtyard, but since there were just too many, some stayed inside their classrooms, but opened the windows so they could hear what was going on.

Vladimir, Ms. Nekonome, Ms. Ririko and Okuto Kotsubo were some of the ones watching from inside.

Soon enough students began whispering amongst each other...

"Is that a military vehicle?"

"It sure looks like it."

"Who do you think is inside that thing?"

"I have no idea."

"Should we tell the teachers?"

"Dude, look around, all the teachers already know and they look as confused as we do."


Inside the vehicle...

"We have arrived Mistress."

"Good."

The person with blood red eyes stood up from where they were sitting then and made their way over to where they would exit the vehicle. "When I give the signal, you're to start the operation and not a second before then, understood?"

"Of course Mistress."

"Then ready your men, you've got a mission to perform."


Everyone's attention was solely on the armored van, and as the back began opening up, descending and turning into a walk way, that became the point of interest. Once it was all the way down fourteen figures exited, before lining up seven on one side, seven on the other. All these individuals wore matching black custom made combat armor, as well as black helmets and tinted visors so it was impossible to see their faces. The fact that they were all toting assault rifles was pretty concerning as well.

The way they were all lined up and facing each other, it was easy enough to tell they were doing so because someone who had some kind of control over them in one way or another was about to exit the vehicle.

No less than a second later two individuals exited the armored van, one walking just a few paces in front of the other, but not blocking their view, walking on their side as they walked in front of them.

The one who was walking a few paces ahead was male, stood six four, had fair skin, had neck length black hair, but was shorter than that because of the slightly higher placed than usual pony tail, he also had several streaks of fiery red through his hair, golden eyes and looked to be in his mid twenties. He wore a older style white suit, but with a black dress shirt underneath, no tie and long white trench coat over that, as well as black dress shoes.

The one behind was still in the shadow of the van, but when they were out of it both Moka and Kokoa gasped quite loudly.

Tsukune and the others looked at the two sisters as they gasped, "What's wrong?"

Both Kokoa's and Moka's eyes were wide and they looked pretty shocked and almost...frightened? "Girls what is it!?"

Both sisters then proceeded to say, "That...that's...that's..."

The confused eight then turned to look where the two were pointing, it was at the person who just emerged from the van's shadow.

This person was female, stood at five ten, roughly Tsukune's height, was slightly paler than Inner Moka, had shoulder length black hair with a slight dark blue tint to it, had blood red eyes with a black slit instead of a pupil, and looked to be in her early twenties. She wore a long dark blue Gothic dress that almost went to her ankles, that had a black tint to it, a long white scarf that went a couple inches below her chest, going down half of her abdomen, as well as knee high black combat boots.

Both vampires then finally managed to get their words out, at the same time as well, "That's our oldest sister, Aqua!"

Tsukune then spoke the thoughts that were going through most of their minds, "Oh this is not going to end well..."

The two beings seemed to radiate some type of intimidating aura, as a good deal of students backed up some after they revealed themselves.

The two walked about a dozen paces forward before stopping, as they did the man stepped forward and began to speak, doing so just loudly enough that everyone on campus and trying to listen was able to hear him...so basically the entire school could hear him. "Greetings students and teachers of Yokai academy, my name is Kazuma and I've come here to inform you of a few things. You see I am a member of an organization that is known by the name Fairy Tale. We are an organization comprised of thousands upon thousands of monsters just like yourselves, and as a whole we are separated into seven different divisions. Each division has a leader assigned to it and a second in command, a sub division leader, and every division has it's own unique goals. I am one of these individuals that head a division, I am the leader of the seventh division. But even though we are separated into divisions, Fairy Tale as a whole has a goal that all divisions work together to strive for, and that goal is...the complete and utter annihilation of the human race."

Many of the students gasped, others grunted, and others stayed silent.

Tsukune was clenching his fists and gritting his teeth as he thought, "They just had to show up again, didn't they? Damn you Fairy Tale!"

Mizore, Kurumu, Ruby and Yukari had pretty similar reactions to Tsukune.

Moka and Kokoa were still focused on their sister.

Fang Fang was paying rapt attention, while also making sure he was watching for any attackers that might try and approach. Ling Ling was doing the former, but not the latter.

Vladimir had a scowl on his face, but did not move from his spot and continued to watch with the other faculty.

Kazuma then got to one knee and bowed his head so as to show respect to his Mistress as she walked a few paces in front of him and began to speak, "Students and teachers of Yokai academy, we have come here to weasel out a human that has hidden himself amongst you. He has been here at this school for two years, and I'm sure many of you know him by name. The one we are looking for is...Tsukune Aono."

As Aqua said this, her eyes somehow managed to find Tsukune.

All the students erupted into denials and vehement protests then.

"Bullshit!"

"That guy, human? That's insane!"

"He kicked the crap out of that bastard Kuyo, no human could do that!"

"There's no way a human could survive here for two years!"

"He has a gaggle of monster girls following him around everywhere, how could he be human and not get found out by one of them!?"

Aqua then unleashed a small dose of her monster energy, and when she did it hit everyone and hard, so hard even Tsukune was able to feel it, and that effectively quieted them down. "Silence! You dare question the oldest daughter of the great Issa Shuzen, one of the three dark lords? If I say he's human, then he is a human. As for who defeated the fox Kuyo, that was my younger sister Moka, not that bastard human."

Silence followed that statement, but eventually whispers began amongst the students, and soon enough all of them had moved away from Tsukune, clearing the path between the van and him, and all of their eyes were on him, leaving him, his girls, Kyouko, Fang Fang and Ling Ling totally exposed.

Fang Fang was close enough to do so, so he whispered, "You're human? Our battle yesterday says otherwise. Just what is going on?"

Tsukune, glad Fang Fang didn't seem like he was about to turn on him, decided it'd be best to tell him. "I am human...only half though. I used to be completely, but then...well let's just say being human at this school can get you killed, and thanks to Moka I was able to survive. The catch? I'm now half human, half vampire, a ghoul."

Fang Fang let a smirk cross his face at that, "A ghoul huh? A unique monster race for a unique person, it suits you."

Tsukune couldn't help but chuckle at that, "Glad you think so."

The young man's eyes went to Fang Fang's bad arm, before going back Aqua, "You sure you're gonna be able to fight with only one arm?"

"A Shuzen? Not a fucking chance."

Both guys then proceeded to chuckle together, before Fang Fang spoke once more, "But seriously, don't worry, I'll manage."

Both young men's attentions were on Aqua once more as she began to speak again, slowly moving towards Tsukune and gang as she did so. "Even worse, he is now only half human. Since he was feeble and weak, he could not survive on his own, so he somehow managed to convince members of our own kind to protect him. Those monsters being Kurumu Kuruno, Mizore Shirayuki, Yukari Sendo, Ruby Tojo, and even two of my own sisters, Kokoa Shuzen and Moka Akashiya. However they failed to protect him from Kuyo, which should have meant his demise, but being a vampire, my sister Moka has incredible regenerative abilities, so by injecting her blood into the human's body, she was able to keep him alive. But in doing so she has turned him into something that has been outlawed by all three Dark Lords, a ghoul, a blood thirsty, destruction craving, vile beast. These things don't care whether you're monster or human, they will kill you and feast upon you in attempt to quench their ever insatiable hunger. You have a human in your midst with a power greater than most of you could ever even hope to compare, and that puts all of you at risk."

Aqua stopped when she was only a dozen feet from Tsukune and his friends, before saying, "However I did not come here so as to save you, I came here because of a personal vendetta, nothing more and nothing less."

Tsukune took a step forward before asking, "What do you want with me Aqua?"

Aqua responded without raising her voice so that everyone could hear her, so it was hard for a lot of monsters to hear what they were saying. "I see you know my name already, that's good. As for want I want, it's quite simple really, I want to destroy you."

The way she acted had been bothering Tsukune for a while, but her deathly calm attitude was really starting to perturb and quite frankly creep him out at this point. "Fine if that's what you want, then..."

Tsukune's holy lock began to glow bright red as he began gathering his monster energy, he brought out roughly sixty five percent, managing to force an extra five percent out in hopes it would do him some good, though he doubted it would. "...let's do this."

Moka and Kokoa objected to that immediately, "Tsukune you can't fight her!"

Kokoa was the one to elaborate, "She's far too strong!"

"What choice do I have girls?"

Aqua was the one to answer that, "None."

Then, moving so fast that even Vladimir's eyes couldn't keep up with her, Aqua was beside Tsukune and ramming her right foot into the side of his head, sending him soaring from the force of the kick.

Tsukune flew for a good thirty feet, students having to move out of the way so he wouldn't collide with any of them, before slamming directly into and through a wall of the main building.

All of the girls couldn't help but call out in fear and worry for their lover's safety, "Tsukune!"


Ko was nearly fifty feet in the air at this point in time, "This one is the episode's showdown right, Wee? I thought so, Wee. Now then, this episode's showdown took, wait, what, Wee? You mean it's not over yet, Wee? Man I'd hate to be that guy right now, Aqua is even scarier than miss Kokoa's Father, Wee!"

The little bat then flew off somewhere to hide.


Inside the main building of Yokai academy...

The young man couldn't help but let a groan of pain pass through his lips, "And I thought Moka kicked hard..."

As the dust from the broken bricks cleared he could see he was in Ms. Nekonome's classroom, Vladimir, Shizuka herself and a handful of students were looking at him as he lie on the ground groaning in pain. Most of the students were eyeing him with fear and or hate, but their faces were overcome with expressions of surprise as both Vladimir and Ms. Nekonome began helping Tsukune to his feet.

Vladimir grabbed Tsukune's right hand with his right hand, while Shizuka grabbed his left hand with both her hands, and the two then proceeded to pull the young man to his feet. Once he was on his feet Shizuka began to wipe off some of the dust he had on him, looking like a caring mother hen as she did so, while the shades wearing vampire spoke, "I was going to tell you to be careful, that she's a lot stronger than she looks, but getting bitch slapped like that has probably already made you realize that."

His head still throbbing from the monstrous kick he just received he responded by saying, "Head hurts too much, can't form snappy comeback."

That got Vladimir laughing his ass off.

Ms. Nekonome then proceeded to say, "I know she's really strong, but don't let her push you around, meow."

"That's a lot frickin easier said than done Ms. Nekonome."

"Just do your best, meow."

"Right."

Vladimir calmed himself down so as to speak to Tsukune once more, his good mood almost vanishing as he put his hand on the young man's shoulder and proceeded to speak, "Before you go back out there, you have to know that you can't win this. The enemy with immense power that none of you can stand against that I warned you about? Aqua Shuzen is that enemy."

"I had a feeling that was the case, but I have to try."

The very old Vampire smiled at that, "I know you do Tsukune, that's who you are."

Tsukune shook his head so as to get the dust off his head, and to try and get rid of the remains of his migraine. Once he was done he then proceeded to hop out of the hole in the wall and back outside and back into the fight.

One of the students then spoke up, "Why did you two help him? He's human."

Vladimir was the first of the two to respond, "Only half human, not that it matters, anyway I was brought here to help him learn to control his powers, not to mention the kid has grown on me. So it's kind of a given that I'm gonna still be in his corner, and to be honest I enjoy it in his corner, I think I'll be staying in it for the rest of my days."

Ms. Nekonome then gave her answer, "I've known that he's human for a little over a year now, so I know personally that he was just as kind hearted after I found out as he was before I found out. He's a great student and a very nice boy, and I hope after this is all over he'll continue to attend here at Yokai academy, meow."

None of the students were sure how to respond to that...


Outside the main building of Yokai academy...

As Tsukune landed on his feet outside, all the girls could be seen giving a sigh of relief. They had all been worried since it was taking him so long to come back out.

Aqua didn't look impressed, "Thought you might have died on me already."

As he began walking towards her he responded with, "After attending this school for two years it's gonna take more than that to kill me."

"We'll see."

And once more Aqua was moving faster than anyone could keep up with, or even see what she was doing while moving that fast.

Tsukune had absolutely no time to react as Aqua slammed her left leg into the side of his skull, which took him off his fleet and had him flying once more, to his left this time. He was now heading towards a large group of students, and they all wouldn't be able to disperse by the time he was close enough to collide with them. However they didn't have to worry, because before he could get close enough for that to happen Aqua moved ahead of him, before kicking him back the way he came.

Aqua watched Tsukune soar from her kick for a moment, before moving once more, appearing in his flight path again. Instead of hitting him with another kick, she raised her right elbow and brought it down hard just as he was going to collide with her. The force behind the attack not only slammed Tsukune back first into the stone walkway, but forced him several inches down into it. This served not only to knock the wind out of the young man, but also to cause some blood to come flying out of his mouth.

Kyouko nearly screamed as she saw this, tears beginning to well up in her eyes.

The oldest of the Shuzen sisters took a step back and then looked down on Tsukune, seemingly examining him for a moment before speaking, "How my two youngest sisters could ever come to allow filthy human scum like you to taint their innocence baffles me. You're nothing more than a spineless, good for nothing weakling. Even worse you're a lecherous bastard who can't settle for one woman. You make me sick."


Ko was several feet higher in the air than last time as he spoke once more, "This episodes showdown took, wait, what, Wee!? It's still not over yet, Wee!? This guy is a fricking idiot, Wee! He should just stay down, Wee!"

Ko then went to find a place to hide...again.


By the time Aqua finished speaking Tsukune had managed to pry himself out of the ground, leaving an indentation in it the shape of his body.

He looked at her before responding to all she said, "I can't exactly argue with all of that, except for the filthy and lecherous parts. I always keep my hands to myself, I've never actually hit on a girl in my life, and I'm actually quite clean."

Someone proceeded to burst out into roaring laughter, and the people who knew him well enough already knew it was Vladimir.

Aqua ignored the sound as she quirked an eyebrow at the young man's words, "Trying to make light of the situation?"

Tsukune offered a mirthful grin as he said, "Kind of, sort of need to though, since it's looking so dark and grim for me."

Vladimir's laughter proceeded to grow louder at that.

The young man's mirthful smirk faded then, before a look of determination presented itself upon his face. "Okay, time to get serious."

With that his holy lock began to glow red once more as he forced more energy into his veins, unfortunately he was only able to pull another percent of his power out. His thoughts, "Crap, I've maxed out. There's no way I can call on anymore, if I do I'll bulk up again, and with how fast she is I'd be even worse off than I already am."

That's when Tsukune spoke up again, "I know you're stronger than I am Aqua, but that doesn't change the fact that I have to beat you. For the sake of my girls."

Aqua lowered her eyebrow as the young man spoke, and once he was done she was going to reply, however he dashed at her and went for a right straight punch, which she proceeded to dodge so fast it was like she teleported, the fact that she was now behind him also made it look that way. She then leaned closer to him and whispered into his ear, "For their sake? That's what you fight for? You're lying."

Instead of rebuking her claim with words, Tsukune shot his right arm backward, trying to elbow her, but yet again she evaded, this time appearing on his left side. Trying not to give her the chance to continue speaking, the young man turned to his left, while also bringing his right leg up, trying to kick the vampire in the side of her head, like she had already done to him more than once. However she raised her left arm and solidly blocked the kick with her forearm, giving her the opportunity to not only continue speaking, but to counterattack as well, and she proceeded to do both. "I know the truth, what you really fight for are your own selfish wants and desires!"

With those heated words Aqua slammed her right hand, open palmed, into Tsukune's gut, which sent him tumbling backwards faster than some people could run.

Every time he hit the ground some stone came up, which meant it was fair to say that the young man was most likely being hurt from this.

Tsukune tumbled for several seconds before he slammed head first, the back of his head, into the wall of one of the buildings. His upper body didn't hit it too softly either. In fact it caused several cracks in the stone wall, while his head put an indentation in it. Nevertheless Tsukune did his best to keep silent about all the pain, not wanting to worry his girls, or Kyouko, which he himself was worried he had already failed at doing.

Before Tsukune could move, before the pain could even begin to fade, before three whole seconds had passed after he hit the wall, Aqua disappeared and reappeared, slamming her right foot into his chest with great force, breaking all of his ribs and forcing him to cry out in agony, while also spitting up a generous amount of blood.

Which in turn caused his girls, Kyouko, and even Fang Fang to cry out, "Tsukune!"

Kyouko however didn't stop there, she continued to scream and cry, demanding that Aqua leave Tsukune alone, that she was going to kill him.

Everyone could see how much that hurt, which is why every student cringed when Tsukune was dealt that blow to his chest.

As Aqua removed her foot from Tsukune's chest, she began speaking once more. "Which is exactly why I'm going to rid the world of your presence. Then I can take my sisters away from here, so as to keep them from anything that might remind them of your filthy presence."

Even in agony, some blood still in his mouth, and having to fight for every breath of air he fed his lungs, Tsukune proceeded to ask, "What...about...the...others?"

"What?"

"The...other...girls...you...won't...hurt...them...will...you?"

That took Aqua back for a moment, bewildered by him showing actual concern for the girls when he was about to die, since there was nothing to gain by doing so. But hesitantly she gave an answer, "N-no, I won't harm them."

"The...one...who...keeps...screaming?"

Aqua wasn't sure what to make of this, "I...I won't hurt her either."

Tsukune couldn't help but give a tiny bittersweet smile at that, "Thank...you."

Even as he said it he felt tears begin to swell, and his thoughts weren't happy ones either, "There were so many things I wanted to tell them, so many things I wanted to share with them..."

If left alone he would live for sure, but Aqua had made her intentions clear, she wanted nothing more than to kill him and he had no way of stopping her. And this became clear to every single person around as Aqua brought her right arm back, hand in a stiff palm position, which Vladimir and several others knew was to pierce his heart with.

That's when all the girls cried out to him and Aqua like Kyouko was already doing...

Ruby, "Get up Master!"

Yukari, "Don't die Tsukune!"

Kurumu, "You're going to kill him! Stop it, stop it now!"

Mizore, "Don't you give up on us Tsukune! Don't give up on yourself! Stand up and fight!"

Kokoa, "Aqua stop it! He doesn't deserve this! Tsukune get up and run!"

Moka, "Stop it Aqua! If you do this I won't ever forgive you!"

Moka's words were the ones to give the oldest Shuzen daughter pause, before she turned around and slowly began walking to the girls. "Moka...you have to understand what I'm doing is for your own good."

All of their words reached Tsukune however, and they set his blood ablaze, "I can't give up, I can't let her kill me, I can't leave my girls alone!"

Everyone's eyes were on Tsukune, including Aqua's as she turned around, when his monster energy began to fluctuate erratically and pulse uncontrollably, allowing everyone to feel it, sending shivers down most of the students and some teacher's spines, not the good type either. It was also becoming visible, a bright red as it surrounded his body.

Tsukune was now on his feet, his eyes glowing, he now had ninety percent of his power flowing through his veins and it continued to show as his monster energy became more and more visible. And with the scowl he now wore on his face, he looked...somewhat frightening. "Aqua...I can't let you win. My girls need me almost as much as I need them, so I won't let you kill me! I fight for them!"

With a blast of his monster energy Tsukune raced forward toward Aqua, who was now about a dozen feet from him. He was surrounded by his light red monster energy in the same exact way he was when he fought Issa. He moved so fast only his girls, Vladimir, Fang, Fang and Ling Ling could keep track of his movement. However Aqua didn't seem the tiniest bit intimidated.

Just when Tsukune was close enough, and before he could hit her, Aqua shot her right arm forward, her palm open and stiff and impaled him through the stomach, stopping him in his tracks. As his monster energy began to dissipate, the young man proceeded to hack up more than a mouthful of blood. Not quite sure what happened, he then slowly looked down, where he saw her arm going into him and a good deal of blood coming out. And then, as his whole body began to go numb, he raised his head to look into her eyes.

Everyone behind Tsukune gasped as they saw Aqua's hand and wrist coming out of his lower back, covered in his blood.

All of the girls were screaming in fear for his life at this point, Kyouko included among them.

Aqua then spoke in a hushed voice, "Did you really think that would work? Not only are you not at the level you were when you fought my Father, you also seemed to have forgot that he could have finished you the second you entered the room. So how did you expect to win?"

The oldest Shuzen sister let that hang in the air for a few moments, before finally saying, "You had me going for a few moments, had me thinking that you actually cared about them. You don't deserve anyone's love, especially not Moka's. You don't even deserve to be alive. So just do this world a favor and die."

She then proceeded to violently rip her arm out of him, creating a disgusting sound by doing so and causing blood to splatter onto her dress and several places on the stone walkway.

Tsukune couldn't feel much as he fell back, which was why he didn't feel much pain at all when he hit the walkway with a thud. "Why do I always fail?"

As soon as the young man hit the ground his girls seemed to be let go by the grips of fear paralyzation, and they were rushing over to him.

Aqua had taken a few steps back, which was why all the girls were around Tsukune, Kyouko included, without her standing over them.


Ko was once more out in the open, though now a whole sixty feet in the air, "Finally, Wee! It was getting repetitive seeing him get his ass handed to him over and over again like that, Wee! Now then, this episode's showdown took- ow!"

The little bat had been hit with a brick, it breaking apart as it made contact with his little body, and causing him to whirl about frantically, doing his best to keep himself in the air afterwards. Once he was flying straight again, he Decided it'd be best for his own safety if he stayed hidden until it was all over at this point, so he flew off. As for the person who threw the brick, well...

Vladimir then proceeded to wipe off all the speckles of dirt and dust the brick had left on his right hand. And a she did he muttered to himself, "Damn bat."


All the girls had tears racing down their faces, and all of them were frantic. But their tears fell even faster and their hearts broke as tears began to roll down Tsukune's face and he said, "I'm sorry...that I failed you all...again."

Kyouko was too hysterical at that point to talk straight.

Ruby, "Don't talk like that!"

Yukari, "Tsukune don't say that!"

Kurumu, "You didn't fail us! You've never failed us! We failed you!"

Mizore, "That isn't true, you could never fail us! So stay alive!"

Kokoa, "Tsukune stop talking nonsense and conserve your strength! You need it!"

Moka had never felt so angry in her life, so she was silent as her tears fell, and instead of speaking grabbed a hold of Tsukune's right hand and put it on her rosary, before forcing him to take it off.

The area was bathed in bright white light, and when it faded Inner was where Outer once was, and she was crying just as much.

Aqua then spoke, "Even this side of you is crying for him? You never cry Moka, not in this form. Is he really so special to you? He's nothing but trash, how can you feel for him at all, let alone enough to show sorrow on his behalf?"

"Save your strength, leave her to me and just focus on healing Tsukune."

Not more than a moment after Moka said those words did Tsukune lose consciousness.

None of the girls moved for several long moments, but as they stayed still everyone could feel their monster energies rising and pulsing.

Soon though they all turned around at the same time, almost as if they had planned it, and each of them was a frightening sight.

Yukari's wand was out and glowing bright and for once she actually looked mean. She pulled her hat down some so as to cover most of her forehead, as she prepared to battle. "You're going down!"

Ruby's wand was glowing just as brightly as the younger witch's, and she didn't look very nice at the moment either, and if the other girls had bothered to look they'd see her facial expression was dangerously close to what it was during their final battle with her. "You'll pay! You will pay!

Kurumu's nails were extended into long claws and her wings were at the ready, and by the look in her eyes she was ready to kill. "I'll kill you myself bitch!"

Everything around Mizore began to freeze over, starting from her and spreading in all directions, freezing the ground, the wall of the building they were near, and anything else it came into contact with, said ice barely avoided the other girls, Kyouko and Tsukune. Even the air around Mizore was with filled with visible frost, and then her eyes were glowing an eery light blue as well. "I'm going to show you a fate worse than death!"

Kokoa's monster energy surrounded her, visible to all, it's redish pink color attracting a lot of eyes and it's feel making people worried for their safety. Her fangs were bared, and the look on her face and the look in her eyes let everyone know that she was out for blood. "Aqua, I'm gonna fucking kill you!"

Moka's monster energy was visible and visibly pulsing, spurred on by her rage, causing the redish pink energy to move in a somewhat strange fashion. Her fangs were bared as well, and she looked ready to tear her older sister limb from limb. "I won't ever forgive you for this! Prepare to die Aqua!"

All of that monster energy together was insane, a good deal of students nearly passed out, and others had to keep themselves standing after their knees buckled, and others felt dazed.

Even from where he was Vladimir could feel the power that they all possessed as a group, it was so great that if they had done this when they had fought him, he would have lost in a minute, give or take thirty seconds, since Gin had to be factored in.

Aqua did seemed somewhat impressed at this, "Their combined power is more than three times than what that scum threw at me..."

So the oldest Shuzen decided it was time to show her full power as well, so she began to draw upon it. It came fast and was visible within moments, the color of her energy being an even darker black than Mikogami's. And soon enough it released itself in all directions with a pulse, and her energy was so potent, so overwhelmingly powerful that it actually did cause most of the student body to lose consciousness, and whoever didn't was on their knees because of it.

Even Vladimir was on his knees, "Shit, I thought I had gotten used to such powerful energy, I'm getting too soft..."

However the girls were too enraged to care how powerful her monster energy was, they wanted her dead and they would do their absolute best to make that happen.

Aqua was at full power and was ready for combat, so like bats out of hell they all came at her in a blood lust.

Moka and Kokoa were the first to actually attack, the older of the two going for a right spin kick, which Aqua evaded seamlessly, but she then had to deal with Kokoa, who went for solid left round house kick, which she also was able to avoid by taking two quick steps back. Just as she took the second step though, Moka was in her face and trying for a right kick to the side of the head, which the oldest Shuzen blocked with her left forearm. The youngest of the Shuzen sisters took this opportunity to come in with a right haymaker, which the black haired vampire caught with her right hand, before gripping it tightly, so the red head couldn't pull away. That didn't stop the young vampire as she brought her left leg up, going for a kick to the head just like her older sister had tried.

With no hands to block Aqua tilted her head back a few inches, just enough to avoid being hit by her littlest sister's foot, however the position she was now in left her looking quite vulnerable, so Moka decided to capitalize. She took her right leg away from Aqua's arm, before grabbing onto her left arm, before jumping several feet into the air, and using the arm she had a hold of to keep herself balanced, she then shot her right leg forward, going for a strong kick to her opponents head. The oldest Shuzen daughter proceeded to block with her left forearm once more, but then Moka's left leg came flying, aiming for her oldest sister's neck, and with no real way to stop it the black haired vampire had to dodge, so she did.

In the blink of an eye Aqua disappeared and reappeared several feet behind her two younger sisters, moving so fast that it'd take them a moment to realize she had dodged. However that didn't even grant her a moments reprieve as Mizore lunged at her from behind, her right arm transformed into an ice blade, trying to impale her from behind. But Aqua knew this was coming, so she sidestepped the attack, causing Mizore to stab the air to the left of her intended target, which left her open to attack. The black haired vampire grabbed the upper part of Mizore's arm, the only part that wasn't a blade at this point, with her left hand, before bringing her right hand down in a chop, breaking the ice blade in half.

Before either of them could do something after that Aqua's attention was pulled to Kurumu, who was behind them, in the air, but was coming down at them extremely fast, head first, her arms out in front of her and together, while spinning at a high velocity. With those claws of hers and the speed she was spinning at she would be able to cut, carve and or slash her way through almost anything, but being as fast as she was Aqua bent her body backwards just enough and just soon enough for Kurumu to fly right past her. But before she got too far from her, Aqua reached out and grabbed a tight hold of Kurumu's tail, and with her strength held her in place, forcing her to stop spinning. Mizore took this chance to form an ice blade where her lower left arm was, before shooting her arm at the black haired vampire, aiming to plunge the blade into her chest this time.

However the oldest Shuzen daughter just evaded the attack, disappearing and reappearing several feet to the snow woman's and succubus's left. Just as before though she didn't get even a second long break, as she had to begin dodging torrents of paper cards and spirit crows, courtesy of the two witches who were currently sending out as many at the black haired vampire as they possibly could. This was just a distraction though, since Ruby was building up her magical energy, borrowing some from Yukari in small doses, and while Aqua didn't know this, she did know that these attacks couldn't hurt her, so she just pulsed her monster energy and the cards and birds disintegrated into nothing.

Moka had closed in on her by then, and tried to go for a strong kick to the midsection, but Aqua swayed to the left, before slamming her right fist into her younger sister's gut, causing the silver haired vampire to hunch over in pain and a bit of blood to come out of her mouth. The black haired vampire removed her fist, before ramming her left one into Moka's side, causing her to cringe in pain, and her body to bend to the right a bit. The oldest Shuzen daughter lifted her right leg, before bringing it back and shooting it forward, kicking Moka hard in the chest, sending her soaring backwards from the force of the impact. The kick made contact with the area just inches above the silver haired girls breasts, so it also did some damage to her shoulders.

Kokoa was upon her oldest sister then, coming from her right, but before she could even attack her, Aqua shot her right leg out to the right, ramming it full force into the red head's solar plexus, causing the young vampire to double over onto her knees and begin hacking up blood. Not giving her time to rest, the black haired vampire turned to Kokoa, before taking a step forward and grabbing a hold of her head, then shooting her right leg up a bit, but keeping her knee bent, which caused her right knee to slam into her littlest sister's face, causing her to cry out in pain. The older vampire didn't stop there, proceeding to slam her knee into the red head's face twice more, before doing it once more with all her strength, sending the younger vampire high into the air. As she flew up and back from where she had been hit, not only did a cry of pain escape her lips, but a decent amount of blood as well, her nose was also broken so both nostrils were leaking blood. Kokoa landed a dozen feet away on her back with a thud, she didn't look like she was gonna get up right away either, but she wasn't out just yet.

Yukari, having already given Ruby all the magical energy she could spare while still being able to fight, unleashed a storm of paper cards and golden washtubs upon Aqua. The cards were stronger than they were before so her monster energy couldn't destroy them, unless she willed it to, which would take too much focus away from dodging, or at least that's what Yukari thought. Aqua however kept disappearing and reappearing before everyone's eyes, always unscathed, and if she wanted to she could have put a stop to most of it by just pulsing her monster energy once or twice, but decided to go ahead and let the little witch do what she wanted, since she was about to battle her anyway.

Yukari was standing on her own at this point, throwing everything she could at the black haired vampire, but she just kept evading everything, disappearing and reappearing, and every time she was a bit closer to the young witch. And soon enough she was upon her, and Yukari had no way of defending herself, and as Aqua brought her right arm back the young witch braced herself for pain, but all she felt was something make impact with the back of her neck, before she lost consciousness and fell to the ground, making her the first to go down.

As Yukari hit the ground Aqua pulled her arm back, she had chopped her in the back of the neck so as to knock her out. "You're too young for this, if you were a vampire it'd be a different story, but you're not. If I had fought you...I'd have killed you."

Kurumu was now coming at the oldest Shuzen sister, this time coming in with her arms crossed, ready to eviscerate the older girl. Just as she got close enough to cut into the black haired vampire from behind though, she disappeared, before reappearing right beside her. She then grabbed ahold of the succubus's right wing with her left hand, she tried to pull out of her grip, but it was too solid, she wasn't going anywhere. Aqua didn't let a second pass after grabbing onto Kurumu, before shooting her leg up and kicking the succubus hard in the face. Her body jerked back from the attack as she cried out in pain and blood began to slide out of the nostrils of her broken nose, but with a firm hold on her, the vampire kept her where she was, before kicking her just as hard in the gut, causing her in air body to jerk upward as she spit out a mouthful of blood as well. The eldest Shuzen daughter then raised her right leg as high as she could, her foot and ankle barely above Kurumu in mid air, before bringing it down for an axe kick, the back of the succubus's head the point of impact for the kick. The kick slammed into the back of Kurumu's head, and proceeded to slam her into the ground, cracking the stone walkway upon impact and knocking the girl unconscious as well, making her the second to go down.

Aqua then turned and looked toward where she felt a surge of magical energy...

Ruby had her wand high into the air as all of her magical energy and all of the magical energy Yukari had given her began to surround her body. The only things running through her mind were the things Aqua had said and done to Tsukune. And in mere moments her most powerful spell began to take form. Within a matter of seconds Ruby was entrapped by magical energy as it began to take form. Soon enough the magical energy that was covering her, turned into steel armor that covered her whole body, her head being the only exception. A pair of angelic wings accompanied the armor, but they too were made of steel. Once the spell was complete Ruby looked like a lady knight with angel wings and no helmet.

The enraged witch wasted no time in rushing toward the black haired vampire, going for a right hook right off the bat. The vampire merely swayed with the fist, narrowly avoiding it, but the fact that she didn't look worried suggested that she could have dodged it with a lot less margin for error if she had wanted to. She quickly began swaying repeatedly, so as to avoid the volley of punches Ruby was now throwing at her. After the tenth punch, Aqua began her counterattack, she started with a solid kick to the gut of the armor, and even while wearing it Ruby felt enough of the impact to hunch over somewhat because of the pain. The vampire then turned around, before jumping up and backwards, performing a solid back flip, while also landing a strong kick to Ruby's upper back, forcing her to hunch all the way over in pain, barely avoiding doubling over altogether. The eldest Shuzen daughter landed directly behind the nineteen year old witch, before kicking her once more, this time in the lower back, causing her to stumble forward a bit, and as she did the black haired vampire disappeared.

Aqua reappeared in front of Ruby, but she was low to the ground and poised for a right kick, which she unleashed a mere moment after appearing, ramming her right foot into the witch's jaw, sending her soaring into the air and causing a decent deal of blood to come flying out of her mouth, as well as causing her to cry out in pain. The vampire then vanished once more, appearing above Ruby, before slamming her left leg into the back of her head, causing her body to rotate until she was face down in the air, and she followed that up by kicking her in the back, sending her hurdling back down to the ground, which was what the Shuzen girl had wanted.

Aqua then spun in the air, her body twirling about for several moments, so as to let her target descend for a bit, before she came down and rammed her right foot as hard as she could into the back of Ruby's armor and not even a moment after that they slammed down into the ground, the force of the kick helping make that impact much greater. In fact it was so great the Ruby's armor shattered into several pieces upon impact, as well as creating a small crater in the walkway and cracking other parts of the stone walkway. And upon impact Ruby screamed in pain, before losing consciousness, blood beginning to trickle from her mouth afterwards, making her the third to go down.

Not even a moment after she got out of the crater Mizore was upon her, her arms now bunches of ice shards, and as the black haired vampire continuously dodged the snow woman's attack, she said to her, "You fight hard, but you also fight recklessly. You fight when you aren't at your best, or did you not know that you still carry injuries? I can tell, your monster energy is weak and doesn't stay formed very long. It's also in the way that you move, if you move a certain way you feel a sharp pain and pause for a moment, so as to not show your weakness to the enemy. And if I recall correctly, the last battle you sustained serious injuries in was...the one you had with that human scum, wasn't it?"

These words served only to anger Mizore further, "Shut your damn mouth!"

Mizore lunged at the vampire once more, but she used that against the snow woman, by getting close and bringing her right leg up, slamming her knee hard into her jaw, causing her to jerk backward in pain. Aqua then took advantage of that by getting behind her quicker than the eye could see, and chopped her in the back of the neck, this one being a good deal harder than the one she delivered to Yukari. It worked as Mizore lost consciousness and fell to the ground with a thud, making her the fourth to go down. "I couldn't bring myself to harm you anymore than that scum already has, whatever the injury is was healed, but it was obviously healed by average healers, since if they had been better they'd have known that being a snow woman you need special treatment. And if you don't get it, that injury of yours will kill you, all because of your love for a worthless bastard. Anyone who knows enough about monster energy would be able to tell the same, it's closely related to your life force, and if it's growing weaker then it's a good indicator that you're doing the same."

Aqua's attention was then pulled to her youngest sister...

"Come here you little shit!"

"Miss Kokoa, I don't want to! She's scary, Wee!"

Kokoa, still bleeding from her broken nose and some blood still dribbling out of her mouth, was chasing around a frantic Ko, trying to catch him. "I don't care what you want, I care what I want, and I want her dead! And I need you to do that!

The tiny bat looked like he was on the brink of tears as he pleaded with his master, "Please miss Kokoa, I beg of you, don't make me, Wee!"

"Ko buddy if you don't get your tiny ass over here right now, I'm going to squish you!"

"But miss Kokoa, Wee!"

"Stop with the damn whining and transform already!"

Despite his pleas his mistress still demanded that he transform, so Ko had no choice but to do so, changing into the red head's favorite form, the hammer.

As her Ko hammer fell into her hands, Kokoa sought out Aqua with her eyes, and when she found her, all the rage from before came surging back. "It's finally time for you to die Aqua!"

Kokoa rushed her sister as fast as she could, bring back her Ko hammer, and when close enough, bringing it down with all her might. Aqua merely moved, doing so so fast it looked as if she vanished, before appearing once more by Kokoa's side, which was very bad. Why? Because Kokoa put so much power into that swing that the momentum of it when it hit the ground, creating several large cracks in the stone walkway upon impact, lifted her almost two feet off the ground, leaving her incredibly vulnerable to attack.

Aqua took advantage of this, doing so by kicking her youngest sister as hard as she possibly could in the midsection, the force behind the attack so great that it not only forced her to cry out in pain and spit up blood, but caused her body to flip over her hammer and slam into the ground, creating one or two more cracks in the walkway. From there she walked over to where the red head lie on the ground, and not giving her even a seconds reprieve, raised her left leg before bringing it down, stomping on Kokoa's solar plexus quite hard, causing her to spit up even more blood.

From there Aqua turned away and began walking away, thinking that the red head was done. But before she even got two feet away, her eyes went back to Kokoa once more, as she felt her monster energy begin rising and pulsing, even if so slightly very few would be able to feel it.

Kokoa was on her knees, her Ko hammer to the side, all but forgotten, as she struggled valiantly to get to her feet. "I...refuse...to let you...do those things...to Tsukune...to the one I love, without making you pay for them...in blood!"

The younger vampire looked up at her older sister with a defiant look in her eyes as she said the last part, which the black haired vampire responded with, "Good, that means I can do this."

Aqua then proceeded to kick her youngest sister as hard as she possibly could in the face, knocking her back and causing her to slam into the ground head first, creating an small indentation from the impact and knocking her unconscious, making her the fifth to go down.

The eldest Shuzen daughter then turned around, but just as she did Moka buried her right foot into her gut, causing her to hunch over a bit.

The younger vampire did not look happy, "You've gone way too far! Not only have you severely injured the one most precious to me, Tsukune, you've also harmed my friends and my little sister, your little sister! Just as Kokoa said, you will pay for this, and it will be in blood!"

The silver haired vampire then removed her foot from Aqua's gut, before going for a left high kick to the head, but the black haired vampire stood up straight and blocked it with her right forearm, before saying, "Most precious? Your trying to tell me that that filth is the person who is most precious to you in this world?"

"Don't you dare speak about him like that! He deserves far better than what you and everyone else spit at him!"

Those words seemed to get to Aqua, "When have you ever been one to sympathize with humans!?"

"When did you turn against them!? When did you start acting like they were the scum of the earth!? What the hell happened to the Aqua I remember, the one who wanted nothing more than for all the fighting between monsters and humans to stop!?"

Those words seemed to do a lot more than get to Aqua, they seemed to get under her skin, "That's none of your damn business!"

Moka ignored her words as she continued to speak, "The Aqua I used to know would never have joined up with Fairy Tale, she would've taken a torch to it and burned it down! And she especially wouldn't have taken orders from anyone!"

Aqua then lashed out, punching her younger sister in the face with a left hook, before kicking her in the gut in a similar fashion to how she had just done to her, before ramming her right knee into the silver haired vampire's jaw, knocking her straight to the ground. And this seemed to calm the black haired vampire down a great deal, as she proceeded to speak normally once more, with her deathly calm attitude, "You don't know anything Moka, not only do I not take orders from anyone, but I am the leader of the entire second division. And as for why I joined in the first place...that's something only I know, and I won't be sharing it with you, or anyone else for that matter."

Aqua then sighed before speaking once more, "Look, I'm sorry I snapped at you Moka, lets just put this behind us and go home, okay?"

"Go home? Go home!? Do you not understand what you've done!? You've hurt everyone that I care for, and you nearly killed the only person who keeps me going day in and day out!"

Aqua wasn't sure what to say, but that didn't stop her from trying, "M-Moka, you can't be serious, there's no-"

"NO! Listen to me damn it!"

Tears were descending the proud vampire's face at this point, "That human that you hate so much is the only reason I'm alive, I live for him, and I would die for him. I love him so much that sometimes it hurts, and it can make me weak, and I hate it when it does. But it can also make me stronger. But no matter which one it makes me, I'm always happy when I'm with him, I find myself smiling just from thinking about him. No one will ever be more important to me than he is, no one! And you're trying to take him away from me!"

Aqua was rendered speechless at Moka's words, but as the words resonated with her, she almost began to cry.

Moka was on her feet at this point, "And I refuse let you do that!"

Moka dashed toward her older sister at top speed, but just as she was close enough to touch her, Aqua buried her left fist in her gut, knocking the wind out of her and causing a bit of blood to fly out of her mouth. Aqua then vanished and reappeared behind her little sister, before chopping her in the back of her neck, a good deal harder than she had done to Mizore or Yukari, which rendered the silver haired vampire unconscious, but as she fell her black haired sister caught her, before lying her gently down on the ground, making her the sixth one to go down.

Thinking she was done, Aqua wasn't quite sure what to do, but her attention was soon pulled back to where her first fight ended as she felt a monster energy begin fluctuating and pulsing uncontrollably.

What she saw was Tsukune, his eyes glowing red, his hair silver and his fangs bared, surrounded by his light red monster energy as it went crazy, his holy lock also glowing quite brightly, and the hole in his stomach all but fully healed. Kyouko was saying something to him, as was Fang Fang, who had moved over to his side during the battle, but he didn't seem to be listening to either of them, his eyes focused solely on Aqua.

Most of the student body had regained consciousness a minute or so ago, but they didn't start backing up until Tsukune started unleashing his monster energy, like he was currently doing.

The oldest Shuzen could tell when someone wanted to brawl, and she could see that in the young man's eyes. "You've hurt those most precious to me, and you will pay for it!"

Before Aqua could reply Tsukune shot forward with a blast of monster energy, which faded just as he got to her, going for a strong right straight, but missing her face by just a few inches, since she had moved her head to the side. However he did not pull back for a few seconds, and before Aqua could use that to her advantage, he shot his head forward, slamming it into hers as hard as he possibly could. Her head jerked back a bit from the force, which Tsukune took for his chance to attack once more, doing so by taking a step back and lashing out with a right haymaker, which failed to make contact as Aqua stopped it with her left hand. "You're a little stronger than you were when you fought my Father, but not by much. I'd say you're roughly Moka's equal at this level, but that isn't enough to go toe to toe with me."

She tightened her grip on his hand to the max, before asking, "Now that your true nature is at hand, let me ask you once more, what do you fight for?"

Tsukune looked her in the eyes, before replying with, "I fight for the ones precious to me."

"Good."

Aqua then proceeded to return Tsukune's headbutt in kind, hitting him a lot harder than he had hit her, causing his head to jerk back violently. She let go of his hand and followed up with a strong knee to the gut, causing him to nearly double over in pain as some blood came out of his mouth. Aqua then finished him off, doing so by raising her right leg high into the air, before bringing it down with all her might, axe kicking him in the back of the head so hard he hit the ground faster than one could blink, causing the stone walkway to crack even further and knocking him unconscious, causing his hair to bleed back into brown and his monster energy to dissipate, it also caused his eyes to return to normal but since he was face down no one could see that, and this made him the final one to go down.

She looked down at his unconscious form for a few moments, before whispering, "I'll let you live...for now."

The black haired vampire was then taken off guard, as she was forced to take a step back from being shoved by Kyouko. Tears were racing down her face, her eyes were raw, and she looked somewhat scared, but her determination and courage shined through as she stood in front of Tsukune's unconscious form, intent on protecting him with her life. "Get away from him! He never did anything to you, why are you trying so hard to kill him!? He doesn't deserve this! He's my cousin, I love him! And I refuse to let you lay one more finger on him!"

This took Aqua back for a second, but she soon recovered her composure. "Fine, if you're willing to go that far, then I'll leave."

The black haired vampire then turned around and proceeded to begin walking away, but after several steps she looked back and said, "But one day...I will come for him again, and when I do no one will be able to stop me from taking his life."

With that said Aqua turned back and continued walking, Kyouko fell to her knees and watched after the vampire's retreating form.


That's when Ko transformed back into bat form, before flying several feet into the air and saying, "This episode's showdown lasted...uh, I forgot to keep count, Wee! Oh crap I forgot, miss Kokoa are you alright, Wee!?"

The frantic bat then flew back down to his mistress to try and wake her from her state of unconsciousness.


Eventually Aqua passed by Kazuma, who was now on his feet, and as she did he asked, "Mistress?"

"I'm leaving Kazuma, do what you will."

The eldest Shuzen daughter said no more as she began walking past students, and soon entered the forest leading down to the bus stop.

Kazuma watched her walk away for several moments before turning back and saying to himself, "Right, time to begin the operation."

To be Continued...
