Sunflower Colored Summer Break

Kohta waited in the forest nearby the dorms as he checked his watch. Growing slightly impatient he began tapping his foot. "At this rate we are going to be late". He then looked up, "Nyu-san, where are you?"

But truthfully he was actually irritated in being dropped at this last minute notification. Although he couldn't complain, considering his situation.

At that he could only sigh, "Well at least it would be good to see home again".

~ Flashback ~

Three days earlier a meeting was called for the photography club as Kohta and Nyu met with their club advisor Kodo-sensei.

"What wrong sensei?" asked Nyu. "Your letter sounded rather urgent".

"Well" as their teacher looked to them rather grimly. "The newspaper club just decided at the last minute to do a summer project in the human world to investigate the inner workings of human society. So as the photography club, it's your responsibility to accompany them along the way".

"But sensei" then said Kohta. "Isn't it forbidden for us to go to human world during our time here?"

"Not exactly, so long as you get special permission by your teachers it's allowed".

The tanned youth looked in surprise to this. ". . . . A chance to return to the human world".

"But sensei" then asked Nyu. "Is there anything else we should know?"

Kodo scratched her cheek as she thought carefully about this. "Well during your time in human world you'll be under Nekonome-sensei's supervision as you'll be working closely with the newspaper club to get their scoop".

"But sensei" then said Kohta. "Why aren't you coming along? Aren't you mandated to come along as well?"

The fox like teacher choked a bit as if caught red handed about something. "Well I kind of . . . . had other arrangements that needed attending too which requires my highest and utmost attention. So if you'll excuse me I have to go now" as she soon made a hasty retreat.

Kohta and Nyu could only stare as it was plainly obvious she was just trying to weasel her way out of her duties.

~ End Flashback ~

As things went he learned that their trip was going to Yokohama. After the accident with his father and sister, he came to live with his cousin Yuka. At that thought, he remembered how teary eyed she became at hearing him leave to some unknown school to god knows where.

Kohta gave a slight chuckle at this. "I wonder if I'll have time to see Yuka when I get there". But before his thoughts could delve any further, he felt himself get pulled into a hug from behind.

"Good morning Kohta-kun! I hope you had a good rest!" shouted Nyu in her usually happy demeanor.

"Good morning Nyu-san" smiled Kohta. "We're going to human world, are you ready?"

The ditzy girl gave a careful nod. "Yes, I'm ready".

The tanned youth nodded in acknowledgment to this. Nyu still had her fears, doubts, and detests for human kind. But after much talking they came to a compromise.

". . . . So do you promise you won't leave my side while we're there?" she asked childishly.

"Of course, I won't leave your side for the entirety of this trip".

"Thank you!" she then chirped as she jumped on him once again for another hug.

They then departed as they made their way to the bus stop. Along the way the pair shared many pleasantries between each other.

Upon arrival to the road side, they came to see a very familiar group of people.

"Hey aren't you . . . ." as Kohta thought about it. "Tsukune-san?"

The meek boy looked surprised at the question as he pointed at him. "Hey you're that guy I've talked too, Kohta-san right?"

"Yeah, so you're part of the newspaper club huh? I guess you weren't kidding about the whole death sentence thing you were talking about that day" which caused Tsukune to laugh nervously about. "But to think you were a vampire, you really had nothing to worry about". In researching thus far, vampires were renowned for their beauty, grace, and supreme strength. But oddly to say, putting the pieces together from what he knew Tsukune was the vampire who beat Kuyou of the police commission and Rikiishi of the wrestling club. But if his perception was right, he didn't even feel that strong. However that could have easily been explained as his powers were being suppressed by some sort of sealing artifact like Nyu's bracelet.

Tsukune gave a nervous laugh at the question. "Yes, of course".

Yukari then stepped forward. "Strange, I could have sworn that I introduced our group to you". She then gave a slight shrug as she started pointing everyone out. She first noted the blue haired girl with the overly well endowed chest. "This person here is Korono Kurumu, she's usually responsible for the culture sections of our paper. By the way," as she leaned in as if whispering. "She's a succubus. So be careful in not letting your guard down when you're around her Kohta-san. Although she may have an ample chest, she is actually a really dumb person".

"Hey!"

The young witch snickered at this. "Moving along as I see you've met before is Aono Tsukune. He's a real average guy. But he makes up for it for being a very nice person".

"Hi" to which he waved.

"And this in the crown jewel of our academy, the number one beauty queen herself, the radiant one who stands above all else Akashiya Moka!" as Yukari glomped her in the process. "And she's a vampire so don't even think about messing with her".

"It's a pleasure meeting you" she politely bowed.

"Well there is also Gin-sempai, but he wasn't able to make it on account from doing so poorly on his tests" which caused Kurumu to flinch as she had also failed her exams, but was cutting summer courses just to stay with Tsukune. Yukari then leaned towards Nyu, "but if you ever meet him just make sure to keep a safe distance as he is actually a very perverted werewolf who can't keep his hands to himself when it comes to girls". At that statement the group shared a laugh at his expense.

"Well I'm Hisashi Kohta, I'm part of the photography club which will be accompanying you along this trip".

"Hello! I'm Hikaru Nyu and I hope we can all be good friends!" in response the newspaper club returned their greetings.

"So these are the people I keep hearing about" thought Kohta as he looked to the pair in front of him. By appearance, Tsukune was indeed quite average from what he could see. True to Yukari's word, he seemed to be a rather nice guy. Then looking over to Moka, her beauty was not the least bit exaggerated. In every way she had many similarities to his friend Nyu aside from a slightly different hair style and emerald colored eyes. But looking closely at her, she too also wore some sort of seal in the form of a black choker with a silver crucifix decorated with a ruby eye. Just being this close to her, Kohta could tell something very big existed inside of her.

Nyu politely greeted each of them. But upon laying her eyes on Moka, something caught her attention as a sheepish smile began to form.

Moka looked back curious to her behavior. "Is there something wrong Nyu-san?"

Then without warning the ditzy girl grabbed her chest which caused everyone to jump at this action. "Wow, Yukari-chan was right! Your boobs are great".

At this action there was a mixture of reactions to what they saw.

Kurumu slightly laughed at the situation.

Yukari could only snicker and blush at what they were doing as her young mind went wild with fantasies.

Tsukune almost had an instant nosebleed in watching the exchange.

Moka felt mortified at being felt up like that.

Nyu was now getting a bit too carried away with what she was doing.

And Kohta . . . . well he could only sigh as he face palmed himself at what he was witnessing. Not only did he just probably add another volume to 'that' particular book. But his pink friend was being strange again. He was vaguely aware of the perverted tendencies Nyu had. However it was her life and he had no business telling her how to live it. But in this particular case, "Nyu-san, please stop. We have to work with them for the next few days".

The ditzy girl turned back with a smile. "Then what better way to bond, right?" said Nyu as her eyes twinkled while she continued her groping session.

". . . ." as Kohta could only sigh at this. "This is going to be a long event".

But unknown to anyone the green jewel on Nyu's bracelet gleamed as did Moka's red jewel as if they were looking at each other.

~ Unknown place, Unknown time ~

At this time both clubs were on board the bus heading through some sort of fourth dimensional transit system. Apparently this transportation method allowed students from all over the world to attend Youkai Academy and in reverse go anywhere in the world.

Now both groups were sitting peacefully with each other as they talked about whatever they can think about as they recollected all the times they had indirect contact.

But then to the corner of his eye, Kohta noticed Yukari to be quite troubled about something. He then looked to the other newspaper club members, "What's wrong with Yukari-chan?"

"Ahh she's just being a scared little child" said Kurumu half bored. "This is going to be her first time in a human city".

Kohta then looked to all of them. "But aren't any of you worried? This is your first time going into the human world . . . . right?"

Kurumu shrugged at this. "I think it'll be a very interesting event. Plus anywhere Tsukune goes, I go as well" to which she hugged the meek boy from behind which earned slight jealousy from Moka.

The pink vampire immediately corrected herself. "Well I am wary, but . . . ." as he looked to Tsukune. "I think everything will be alright".

"Umm" the boy started. "I'm used to live in the human world".

Kohta blinked at this. Hearing that statement he was both surprised and skeptic about his answer. He did believe what he said, it was just . . . . something was off about it. He then looked back to Yukari. "Is it because she always lived in the monster world that she is so worried?"

"Actually it's a bit more complicated than that" explained Kurumu. "As it all starts back to the witch hunts in the human world".

At hearing that, neither Kohta nor Nyu needed to hear anymore. They knew the history behind the great witch hunts that took place during the seventeen hundreds all around the world. But for Kohta, this at first was just stories of radical superstition by a bunch of foolish humans. In learning that the supernatural existed, he felt sympathy for them. By his perception a good deal of them probably never deserved the horrid fates they were subjugated too. But to make matters even worse for witches was that they were also persecuted by the demons because they looked like humans. At this thought Kohta could only internally sigh at this. As much hate that existed between humans and demons they sure did share a bunch of similarities of always fighting and hating over such trivial stuff.

"Do you think we should talk to her?" asked Nyu.

The newspaper club could only nod at this. "But considering her circumstance . . . . it's rather difficult".

But before anyone could utter another word, light permeated through the windows as the bus left the tunnel as now they were in the human world. As they looked outside everyone's eyes widened in awe at the extraordinary things they were seeing. But after a good twenty minutes they appeared to have been driving up a mountain as they were soon kicked off the bus to see a wide and far sunflower garden.

"Wow! A sunflower garden!" said Kurumu excitedly as she latched onto Tsukune.

"It's beautiful! Is this where we are staying?" asked Moka. "I didn't even know they had places like this in the human world".

"Pretty!" as Nyu's eyes shined in awe.

"This is totally a different spot then what we planned huh?"

Everyone looked back to the bus driver to see him giving his usual creepy smile. ". . . . Huh?"

"Well I thought we should stop by this spot for a bit. Currently this is a very well known spot in the human world".

"Well known? For the sunflowers right?"

"Negative" he half-chuckled. "For it being a mysterious spot where one person after another has been spirited away" which caused everyone to gape at this bit of news. "Don't you think that being spirited away in this day and age is quite poetic" as he gave off one of his creepy smiles.

"That's why you brought us here?" exclaimed Tsukune as he looked visibly shaken.

"You best read the local newspaper for the details" as the bus driver handed the group a newspaper. "Well you guys better be plenty careful at not getting spirited away".

"What? Why?"

And ignoring Tsukune's question entirely, "well Nekonome-sensei why don't we go eat out? I'll treat you to some yummy fish" to which the cat like teacher's feline ears popped out as she was right on board as their supervising adults soon jumped back onto the bus and drove off.

In staring at the leaving bus, ". . . . I think we've just been ditched" said Kohta as soon everyone agreed.

"Why are you leaving?" panicked Tsukune. "Wait! Don't leave us behind!"

At this realization Yukari began to panic which started to get to everyone. However, a strange growling sound became apparent as the group retreated to a cabin nearby. They soon began to brain storm what was going on as Tsukune remembered the newspaper. So bringing it out Moka, Kurumu, and Yukari grouped close to him to read. Kohta and Nyu stood aside as they chuckled at seeing how visibly embarrassed the meek boy was getting.

However the group soon realized that they were dropped there for a reason. At this epiphany Yukari started to get scared, but Kurumu dismissed it as her just being childish. With this hurtful statement the young witch dashed out running away from them, but not before sticking an iron tarot card into the blue succubus's forehead.

At this act the group feverishly searched for her. Then after half an hour they found her extremely exhausted lying around multiple bodies of sliced up plant monsters.

However the group was more relieved to see she was OK. But as Kohta and Nyu looked around they couldn't help but wonder, what on Earth was going on here?

~ Unknown place, Unknown time ~

"A witch? A witch on my hill?" asked an elderly voice. At this time two figures were present in an isolated house as they conversed amongst themselves.

"Yes Yukata-sama" replied the teenage looking figure. "Despite her youth she possesses quite strong magic". The figure paused for a moment to collect herself. "That witch completely destroyed the magic plants that were entrusted to guard our priceless sunflower field".

The other figure chuckled ominously at this. "Well well, how many years has it been since we've seen another witch? We must welcome her as she is of our blood".

~ Sunflower Field ~

After things calmed down the group learned that Yukari risked her life to save two of the locals. From them they learned of the strange things that have been going on. But after some more exchanges in dialogue they decided it was best they left for now.

"Then shall we leave and go to town where our motel is located?" suggested Moka. "We might even bump into Nekonome-sensei to which we should report everything that happened".

"We're close to town" said the young local girl.

"And we could probably give you a ride there" then continued the elder local woman. "But . . . ." as she scanned the group, "I don't think I have enough room for all of you in my car".

The two clubs looked at each other before looking back. "I know a way we can save room!" chimed Nyu as she raised her hand. "I'll just sit on Kohta-kun's lap to free up an extra seat".

Kohta blushed at the suggestion.

"How daring" smirked Kurumu. She then turned back to the group. "I'll sit on Tsukune's lap too if things get too cramped!"

" . . . . No . . . . No, it's quite alright" the tanned youth waved.

"What do you mean?" asked Yukari.

"Well since we're already on the outskirts of the field I don't mind walking back".

"You can't go alone" then said Moka. "It might be dangerous".

"Then I'll go with him" smiled Nyu.

"Wait, are you sure?"

"Yep" she then chimed. "I don't mind walking back with Kohta-kun. So don't worry we'll be fine".

The newspaper club looked at each other as they hesitantly agreed to this. Then after jumping into the car, the pair was alone as they drove off.

Kohta gave a small smile as he took a deep breath as he exhaled. "It's good to be home again".

"So you live around here Kohta-kun?"

"Yeah, I came to live here after certain turn of events". The tanned youth then gave a soft chuckle. "Heck, I might even run into my cousin if I'm lucky".

"Of course" smiled Nyu. She then looked around, "but where exactly are we supposed to go?"

Just as Kohta opened his mouth, he fell silent as truthfully " . . . . I honestly have no idea".

"Huh? But I thought you lived around here!"

"Well I've never been this far out before!"

With that statement the pair began to panic. But they soon saw a human like shadow cover them as they looked to the tree to where it originated from. At looking, they saw a teenage girl who seemed to have been dressing like a Goth as she appeared to have been looking at them.

"I think I'll ask her for directions" said Kohta as he approached the strange looking girl. "Umm, excuse me do you know which way it is that leads into town?"

The Goth then appeared to have been glaring at him as she waved her strange stick at him.

Kohta looked at this act strangely. "OK, so am I supposed to go that way?" as he pointed to where the stick was pointing.

The Goth looked to him curiously as she repeated the motion she just did.

"OK, so that way" pointed Kohta. He then looked to Nyu. "Alright town is this way Nyu-san!" He then looked back to the strange girl. "Well thanks for the directions" as he departed.

The Goth repeated her action again and at noting nothing was happening she looked to her wand to see if there were any damages. Then looking back to the boy her eyebrow perched in curiosity, "why didn't my spell work on him?" She soon waved her head at this. "I'm first to accomplish my mission as master wants me to go acquire her". With that statement her body began to grow smaller as it started to transform into a crow as she soon flew away.

Kohta and Nyu were now walking side by side down the mountain. After some time they saw civilization as the city was now in sight. Seeing as they still had time to spare Kohta decided to spark a conversation with his pink friend.

"By the way, my cousin's name is Yuka. Her family owns a few properties in the area. But the likelihood of bumping into her is not very high as she usually tends to be very busy with other things. Looking to his friend now, "Where did you use to live? You did say that you use to live in human world before right?"

The ditzy girl nodded to this. "Yes, actually I lived right here in Japan too. Before coming to Youkai Academy I was living with my okaasan in Kamakura". She smiled as she thought of something. "Okaasan . . . ."

Kohta smiled softly at this until something peculiar just occurred to him. "Nyu-san, you said that you were the only one of your kind, right?"

Nyu nodded to this. "Yes".

"Then what about your mother? Isn't she supposed to be a diclonius as well?"

The ditzy girl blinked at this before giving a soft smile. "No, okaasan is a pure human. But she is special".

"Huh?" as Kohta was now getting confused. "What's that supposed to mean?"

"Just as I said" she smiled. "Okaasan is human. But she was born with a very unique body. In turn it gave birth to me".

The tanned youth was now getting more confused. "OK . . . . So what about your father?"

"Tousan?" questioned Nyu. She then placed her finger to her lip as she thought about it. "I've never known him. Okaasan never tells me anything about him".

At that statement, "could Nyu-san's father be the demon? Is that why her mother won't tell her about him?" he then shook his head as there was no point in assuming as she herself didn't really know anything about it.

But after a while it soon started to get dark as they arrived in the city. As they navigated around they didn't appear to be getting any closer to where they should be as the newspaper club probably was already at their motel.

After some more wandering they came about some blind luck at the newspaper club was right there at the bus stop. But then they noticed the extra occupant.

"Who is she?" asked Kohta as he pointed to the said girl.

The newspaper club looked at each other before looking back at them. "Well . . . ." started Yukari, "this is Ruby-san. She's a witch . . . ." as she paused for a moment "that attacked us not so long".

"Attacked! Are you guys OK!"

"Yes we're fine" half-chuckled Tsukune as he flinched a bit in pain. "Only got some minor injuries" although Moka, Kurumu, and Yukari knew otherwise as the damage he sustained should have killed him.

"Kohta-kun" as Nyu was now face to face with the girl. "Doesn't she seem familiar?"

The tanned youth took a closer looked as his face stretched in realization. "Hey! She's the girl that guided us here!"

"What?" said Kurumu. "That seems unlikely. She attacked us for no reason whatsoever".

Kohta scratched his cheek. "Hmm, well there is no point in debating until she wakes up".

Almost right on cue their supervising teacher arrived carrying boxes of raw fish. As they looked to her it was quite apparent that she completely forgot about them.

~ Inn ~ (late evening)

"Where am I?" demanded Ruby as she soon awoken for her rest. At this time the group was in their motel room as they were caring for her.

"Ahh, you're awake" smiled Tsukune. "But you shouldn't move yet as you're still injured".

Ruby looked to them strangely as she was confused about her current circumstance. "Is this a dream? But I remember trying to kill them, but they defeated me instead". It was usual for the enemy to be caring for you. So she decided to be as calm as possible as she analyzed the situation. "Where am I? and who are you people?"

The meek boy looked to Kohta before looking back to the Goth witch. "I'm Aono Tsukune. Well, what am I?" he said hesitantly. "I'm just a human".

Kohta's and Nyu's eyes widened at this statement.

"Tsukune-san?"

"Don't worry, I believe we can trust them".

The tanned youth gave him a quizzical look, ". . . . Maybe he's like me. I'll need to talk to him later".

"Well we came here as part of an extracurricular activity for our school and at the moment we are staying here at this motel".

Ruby's face reflected disbelief at what she was hearing. "Human? There's no way a human can defeat a witch like me!"

"But I'm not kidding" as Tsukune waved his hands innocently. "I was just borrowing the powers of an ayashi".

"An ayashi?"

". . . . Well you see this is what's going on. I'm human".

"I'm a witch" said Yukari.

"We're ayashi" said Moka, Kurumu, and Nyu.

"And I'm just weird" said Kohta as he passed this one off as a joke.

Ruby's eyes widened at this as it soon turned into a glare. She soon grabbed Tsukune by the collar. "Stop joking around! There's no way a witch can be friends with a human let alone an ayashi". The meek boy flinched as she immediately realized that he was still hurting from the injury she dealt his earlier. "Is that the wound where I sliced you?" She then got back into her glare, "but why did you help me? I tried to kill you back there. Don't you people hate me?"

Tsukune paused to collect his thoughts. ". . . . It's obvious isn't it? We don't need to have a reason to help somebody. Besides I went overboard and attacked you there". He then looked up with a soft smile. "Knowing Ruby-san is a girl . . . . I am really sorry".

Ruby gave a slight blush as she looked away. It was apparent that she was charmed by him as everyone could easily see it.

Outside the room, the bus driver and Nekonome were quietly listening in. However the enigmatic driver knew much more then what he was letting on as he suggested the possibility that they might need to get back-up for what is about to occur, but then Nekonome being the person she was, was more focused in eating her fish than anything else to listen.

In was then later that evening that Kohta dragged Tsukune away from everyone else as he wished to talk to him. So going out to the deserted porch, they both leaned against the railing as they looked out to the night sky. "So you're human, right Tsukune-san?"

"Yeah" he responded as calmly as possible. " . . . . Is that a problem?"

"No" answered Kohta. The tanned youth quietly contemplated what he wanted to say next. "Because actually . . . . I'm human too".

Tsukune then looked to him in complete surprise at his answer. "What? So there were other humans at the academy too!"

Kohta slowly shook his head at this. "Well . . . . I think I am human".

The meek boy looked to him confused as he didn't understand what he was talking about.

"I lived here in human world for all my life and I never once exhibited anything that could be considered extraordinary. But once I came to the academy . . . . that's when things changed as I started doing things I never could even imagine".

". . . . Then what are you exactly?"

"That's the question" as Kohta looked down slightly depressed. "When I heard that you were also human that exhibited ayashi abilities, I thought maybe you were something like me. But I guess not".

"Well to be truthful" as Tsukune gave a slight chuckle. "I wasn't supposed to be able to use ayashi abilities. I mean on a statistical chance I was that one in a million possibility of it working as it was actually supposed to kill me" to which he explained his story up to the point of receiving Moka's blood.

Kohta chuckled at this. "Well I guess that makes us some very odd humans then huh?"

"Well I hope you find your answer Kohta-san" to which the boys then shared another laugh. Before long they went back to their room to rest for the coming day.

~ Inn ~ (the next day)

The atmosphere had definitely risen amongst the group as Yukari was getting the hang of a human city as she was ecstatic in going to a place known as the supermarket.

However Ruby's couldn't tolerate what she was seeing. In front of her was a direct contradiction for everything she believed to be true about witches, humans, and demons. But what amazed everyone was Tsukune's relentless tenacity in trying to befriend the girl to which everyone could visibly see how troubled she was. But it soon became clear that her and her master's plan were in effect as the monsters that Yukari defeated a day ago were soon going to descend from the mountains in hoards as they would turn the city into ruins. But in trying to learn more, it was pointless to try pushing any further.

So retiring for the day, they all slept but were soon disturbed by Tsukune as he notified everyone that Yukari and Ruby were gone. Quietly as they looked around, they found both witches discussing amongst themselves about the world around them. In listening they understood the root of why Ruby hated humans so much. It was the humans that killed her parents in a rather unfortunate drunk driving accident. As the Goth witch quietly sobbed, she relayed her desire that she wished to have met good people like them sooner. Ruby soon broke out into a run running right past them leaving the inn as she grew wings and soon flew off. As they watched her leave they couldn't help but feel sympathy for her plight.

The group soon reconvened inside as they were at a loss at what they should do next.

"Ruby-san . . . . I thought we could be friends" said Yukari sadly. "But she just ran off like that" to which everyone looked down in depression too.

"Heh heh, is this what you want? If you let it be, she going to end up killing more people".

Everyone then turned to see the bus driver enter with his usual mysterious aura.

"The mastermind is finally taking their action. I'm guessing they are going to be bringing an army to which that includes that girl Ruby. She is going to kill everyone human here just to protect that ranch".

The group looked in shock to this. "How do you know this?"

"So what are you going to do? The relationship between humans and witches run deeper then you think. Do you really think you can stop them knowing this?"

Silence permeated as they understood what was at stake. Whatever they did could mean terrible consequences in the future. But, "we know where they live" said Tsukune. "Let's go and bring back Ruby-san".

"Tsukune-san?"

"I truly understand why Ruby-san would hate the humans. But we can't just sit here, a massacre between both sides won't solve anything". He closed his eyes before reopening them exerting a greater resolve. "Let's go back once more to the withes ranch where the sunflowers are grown".

"Then count us in too!" said Kohta as he stood up.

"Yeah!" said Nyu as she looked pumped.

"But you shouldn't get involved like this . . . ."

Kohta adamantly shook his head. "This city is my home and I can't just let it be destroyed. So I'm going to do everything that I can to protect it!" and with that everyone nodded as they stood up.

"Well I see everyone has made their decision. So why don't I just give you a lift there".

Once everyone got dressed in their normal attire they were off like a bat out of hell in the bus as their driver was driving like a maniac down the streets. However time was of the essence as they didn't have time to wait any longer. As the bus raced up the mountain side, it soon hit a rocky ramp as the vehicle flew for a couple of feet landing near the garden.

"We got here pretty quickly didn't we?" chuckled the bus driver.

"You call yourself a bus driver! That was insane! I thought I was almost going to die!" said Yukari.

The group soon shuffled out as they came face to face with Ruby and her master as they appeared to have been having an argument. But looking at the older witch, she made it no point to hide her power as the group felt how immensely strong she was. However this was a battle they could not afford to lose. As they stood bravely before this fierce enemy, they steeled themselves for whatever would happen next.

To be continued . . . .
