Hey, and I'm back again~! :D

This update is a lot shorter than the last one, sorry, but I think it's pretty okay for a short one. So please review, and the author here would be very, very happy about it and hence would write a lot faster. xD

Also, for those who know Black Cat, you probably would find this very familiar. I give credit to Yabuki Kentaro, the artist and author of the manga and anime Black Cat, to the basic idea, but it's different. I'll leave it to you, the readers, to find out. I know already… :]

I don't own KHR either; that belongs to Amano Akira.

Happy Reading, and please review!!

Kaia ran as fast as she could back to the Disciplinary Committee. Her heavy breaths echoed in the hallway, and her footfalls seemed to double. Kaia halted before the door of the Disciplinary Committee room again, and she paused. She was afraid of entering, and yet she feared a penalty if she arrived too late. Kaia looked down at her hand, reaching out for the door knob. It was trembling. She tried to calm herself down with a few deep, controlled breaths, but it hardly affected her nervousness.

She had a feeling Hibari was literally going to kill her. The murderous aura was more than she can bear. But she summoned what was left of her courage and grasped the door knob. She turned it, wincing as she tried to control her hand from turning the knob too quickly. She wanted to stall as much time as she could, before she would confront Hibari. But time passes by, and Kaia had turned the knob. She opened the door again – this time, Hibari was on the couch.

He turned his head. Kaia now felt the full blast of his aura. Inside, she crumbled to the floor with fear. But on the outside, she miraculously remained standing.

"What…is…my…punishment…?" Kaia hesitatingly approached the edge of the couch.

"Of course, Kaia, what do you think?" Kaia was taken aback by Hibari's answer. Never had she been addressed by this fearsome person as Kaia. She paled, then blushed. It was like last night's encounter with the prince all over again. Kaia looked away; she paled again. She realized it must be a type of showing respect for the dead. Kaia was really scared now, and she backed away.

Tonfas flashed into her vision. The crooked grin on Hibari's mouth guaranteed Kaia's doom. Hibari stood up and grabbed Kaia's arm.

"We're going to the roof; I will not tolerate dirtying carpet." He flung open the door, and dragged Kaia up to the rooftop. The clear air somewhat cleansed and diminished Hibari's murderous aura, but Kaia couldn't ignore it, no matter what she tried to make herself believe. She looked around – the view was stunning. Kaia smiled softly and sadly to herself, before facing Hibari again.

Actually, what shocked herself the most was how Hibari was shocked. Kaia's eyes widened as she looked into Hibari's surprised eyes. His eyes quickly hardened, however, and he said this:

"You are a witch."

"Witch…?" Kaia wonderingly repeated to herself. How was she a witch? But before she could process anything else, Hibari charged.

But all that occurred to Kaia was a slight graze on her leg. She took a surprised step away from where Hibari had been, and looked behind her. Hibari had crashed into the roof's entrance enclosure box, and he looked like he hurt his head pretty bad. There was a prominent dent in the metal, but Hibari emerged as if nothing happened, aside from the fact that he angrier than ever.

Kaia hadn't done anything at all, but it seemed Hibari thought otherwise. Kaia thought for a little while, but came to a conclusion. Hibari was probably acting weird or bumping into bad luck everywhere, like she was, and he decided to blame it on her. Hence, it led to the mild suggestion of magic, and there was the birth of Kaia, the evil witch.

And Hibari planned to kill her for it.
