*Talk* *Talk* *Talk* *Talk* *Talk*

*Get kicked out window* *Talk*

On with the story.

ONE MONTH LATER

The Chairman was at work, doing the Great Barrier's usual repairs and maintenance. Ruby was kneeling off to the side, waiting to be given an order. News that Tsukune was gone had troubled all of those close to him. Ruby herself had received the news from the Chairman himself. She was to say in the least sad that her friends had not thought of telling her. But that feeling quickly washed over as the others came to her later the same day explaining what they had heard.

The group asked Ruby for her help, but Ruby could not do anything either. She could not get the key from the Chairman despite her attempts. She hesitantly stopped when the Chairman threatened to fire her if she asked again after the forty-sixth time. Kurumu, Moka, Yukari, Mizore had each earned themselves several detentions for breaking and entering the Chairman's office. Kokoa had even gotten a detention herself due to not being able to stand their constant bickering over the subject.

Minutes turned to hours, hours turned to days, days to weeks. Every passing moment each felt the possibility of getting back Tsukune was dimming. Inner Moka had made herself scarce since that day. Watching from Moka's eyes but never interjecting. When Moka tried to talk to her she would just go to sleep, ignoring her calls. The group had grown closer in their time of need, each helping shoulder the other's burden.

The Chairman looked up slightly from his work, looking the ever so slightest towards Ruby. "You have some free time, so go to the human world and have a break."

Ruby's eyes widened as she started to lightly cry, shaking. "…Am…am I fired?"

Rolling his eyes from her reaction, going back to his work. "Why are you always like that, I'm not firing you. Just take some time off and go have some fun, you might see some familiar faces. I've already booked a room for you, there's even a beach nearby. In this great barrier if there are things that I am unable to see, then it is good to go out and reflect on one's self."

Ruby looked back up, rubbing the tears out of her eyes. "So I'm not fired? Then is there a task you want me to do Board Chairman?"

The Chairman stopped working, frowning. "…You're fired, the bus will pick you up at the bus stop. Your things have already been packed."

Tears immediately started to pour from Ruby's eyes as she stood up. "*sniff* Yes *sniff* Sir."

Ruby turned around, moving out the door, leaving a river of tears behind her. Slowly heading towards the bus stop.

The Chairman looked back shaking his head. "Why is she so difficult? I mean come on what's so hard about 'go take some time off' or 'hey, take a vacation!' I mean seriously! That girl takes this work way to seriously…its rubbing off on me now. Ugh I'm actually checking the repairs a second time! What's wrong with me!?"

Throwing his heads up into the air as he moved away from the barrier controls. Heading deeper into the dark room. The controls lowering themselves into the floor, putting them hidden from view.

TIME SKIP

Ruby sat on the bus as it drove through the dimension tunnel. The trip had been a silent one for both the bus driver and the witch. Neither talking except for the usual greetings. Driving out of the dimension tunnel onto a paved road. Traffic wising by at it continued driving into the city. Ruby didn't know how long they were driving till the bus had stopped.

Opening the door as the bus driver looked back to the witch, eyes glowing as usual. "We're here Toujou-San."

Ruby looked up, nodding as she got up and moved to the front. "Thank you for the ride Bus Driver-San. I wish you many good years working with the school."

The bus driver flashed a toothy grin as he dipped his hat to Ruby while she was getting off. "Thank you as well, hope you like your stay."

Closing the door and slamming on the gas. Making the bus roar off into the distance. Tires screeching as it merged back with traffic dangerously. Ruby sighed as the bus disappeared from view. Turning around to see an inn. Picking up her suitcase before moving through the doors.

Moving through the doors as she was jumped on by a random small figure. "Ruby!"

Ruby regained her vision from being knocked to the ground, seeing Yukari holding onto her waist. Kurumu got off her bar stool moving to embrace her friend while Moka did the same. Kokoa and Mizore continued sitting at the bar, looking back at the commotion.

Ruby got back up, being embraced by both sides by Moka and Kurumu. "Everyone is here!? What are you guys doing here?"

Moka and Kurumu stepped back while Yukari continued to cling to the older witch. "I'm here since my mom's doing some fashion shoots nearby and she thought it would be a good idea if I came."

"Kokoa and I are here because our father thought being in the human world for the summer would be a good idea." Moka said

Mizore turned her seat around to face the group. "My mother thought I should still be away from the village for the time being."

Yukari finally let Ruby go, looking up at her. "I heard everyone else was here from my parents so I came also!"

Kokoa scrunched her eyebrows together as she looked over to Ruby. "So why are you here?"

Once hearing those words, tears sprayed out like a sprinkler. "I got fired!"

The group except for Mizore and Kokoa immediately began to try to calm the older witch down. "It's ok Ruby, um…how about we go check out the beach!? Ya! Let's go walk around! That will get your mind off the subject. A hot sun, warm breeze, and the smell of the ocean."

Ruby's tears lessened as she thought about the beach. "*Sniff* Beach? *Sniff* I guess that would be nice…"

Kurumu dashed out of the room, before momentarily coming back. "I've told the manager that you would be staying here, she said to leave your luggage here and that you already have a room. She'll bring it up to the room in a moment, so we can go enjoy ourselves in the sun."

Kokoa sighed as she looked over to her bat companion. "I'm not going, Ko-Chan go with them, and you're boring me right now. Go do something useful."

Kou squeaked as his face dropped. "Kyu, Kyu?"

Kokoa narrowed her eyes at the bat, ready to lash out before he sprung into the air. Flying above the small group of friends. "Kyu! Kyu!"

Mizore got off the stool, popping a new sucker into her mouth as she walked over to the group that was now leaving. "Alright, be good Kokoa! Don't give Marin-San any trouble!" Moka called out looking back to the bar as Kokoa went back to drinking her tomato juice.

Moving out the door, letting Kou fly off into the sky. Away from view so he wouldn't be seen. The girls pulled the more sober Ruby along, seeing the sights and shops as they walked down to the beach. The inn was located right on the beach so they only had to turn a direction and start walking.

Kurumu pointed off to the ocean. "Oh we have to go swimming!"

Mizore and Ruby nodded in response, while Yukari jumped up and down. Moka grinned awkwardly as she twiddled her fingers. "I guess…I can watch…"

Yukari stopped jumping looking over at Moka. "I won't swim so you won't be alone Moka-San!"

Moka waved her arms out in front of her franticly. "Oh no! You should swim Yukari-Chan, we are only here for another month. So you should spend every second you can having fun. I'll be fine. I don't mind sitting out."

Yukari didn't look to sure but decided not to push the issue, secretly planning to sit out as well. "Alright…hey what are those people doing?"

A crowd was snapping pictures at the group murmuring to themselves. "Look! That lady is super pretty." "Her face is elegant." "Her legs are lo—ng." "Is she a model?"

The crowd pushed into the group, creating a division between Moka and the rest of the group as she backed away. "Go on a date with me!" "Hey is it true, you're a model!?" "Excuse me miss, how would you like to be on the cover of." "Do you have a boyfriend!?"

Moka stammered trying to thank some of the comments and politely decline the other invitations. Slowly backing away from the crowd as it continued growing. Darting her eyes before the stammering of questions and requests. Looking behind her for an escape before turning around and breaking into a sprint around a corner.

The girls tried to push their way through the crowd, but were shoved back every time. "Hey what about me?! I'm better than her!"Kurumu yelled out, trying to get the attention of the crowd. Growing a tick-mark on her forehead.

"Get out of the way!" Yukari yelled out, her voice being drowned out from the noise.

The girls stepped back as the crowd continued to grow, gathering back together. "What are we going to do? We can't get through the crowd to get back with Moka-San."

Kurumu huffed, crossing her arms and looking away. "Geez why does she get all the attention. I'm just as good if not better looking! They should be focusing on me!"

The crowd suddenly turned around, snapping their pictures at the group again. "She has to be a model also!" Her skin is so smooth!" "Look at those tits!"

The crowd moved into the group again, creating another division between Kurumu and the others. Kurumu blushed as she started to pose for each photo. Both cutely and sexually. Making the men in the group gain a massive nosebleed seeing the positions she was taking.

Before the group could get Kurumu's attention, others focused in on Mizore. "Another model!" "Her skin is so white, you can almost see through it." "So pretty."

Mizore starred awkwardly at the crowd as it divided her from Yukari and Ruby. Pictures flashing rapidly as she starred uninterested at them.

Yukari and Ruby looked at each other sighing. "Look at this one!" "I like the older ones." "I love the two ponytails look!"

Yukari tried to stay close to Ruby but still managed to get pushed aside. Looking around her at the gathering of people as flashes roared around her.

SCENE CHANGE

Moka slowed down to a walk as she looked behind her for the crowd. Regaining her breath from the sprint she just did.

Looks like I lost them…now…where am I?

Looking around at her surroundings, she saw that she was on a lower level of the pier. Next to some steps that led up to a plaza. The area around her, deserted.

Which way did I come from? I was so focused on getting away I didn't look where I was going. It's amazing I didn't hit someone…

Someone smashed into Moka's back, sending them tumbling forward. "OUWW!"

Getting up on her knees as she looked around for the person who did it. Only to discover a girl in a spotted yellow sundress with dark blue hair that lay on her shoulders, holding up a notepad that said. 'I'M SORRY!'

Raising her eyebrow as the girl flipped a page, writing more words. "Huh? Um hello? Can I help you?"

Can she not talk?

The girl flipped her notepad around showing 'I'M SORRY, PLEASE SAVE ME, I'M BEING CHASED'

Hearing movement on her left seeing five men come down the steps, two of them pulling guns out of their coats.

SCENE CHANGE

The Chairman calmly stepped inside the dark cave, hidden from the waterfall. Looking around his surroundings, looking for hit object of desire.

Turning around to see a fist stopped in mid punch merely inches from his face. "Ah Tsukune-San, there you are."

Sighing and lowering his arm to his side as he relaxed realizing who it was. "Thank goodness it's only you, thought you were another boggart. So what are you doing here?"

"I need you to come back, and I think I'm a little tall to be a boggart if you ask me." The Chairman stated getting right to the chase.

Tsukune turned around, moving to sit up against the rock wall."No I won't, and you would be surprised at the heights I've seen recently."

Moving in front of Tsukune, looking down on him. "Hmm…maybe they're taking a liking to the surroundings and adapting better than I thought…I might have to move them...well anyways you might want to rethink that choice."

"Why would I do that? Are you going to kill me if I don't?" Tsukune asked mockingly.

Flashing a grin at the previous student of his. "No, but you might want to kill yourself knowing that you didn't stop what is going to happen."

Tsukune raised an eyebrow towards the hooded man before him. "…What's going on?"

Turning away from Tsukune, inspecting the cave. "Akashiya-Chan has been kidnapped. The others are about to become aware of this fact as we speak."

Moka-San…

Tsukune sighed. "The girls will save her, I have faith in them. I would only get in the way anyways."

Looking back slightly, giving Tsukune a view of one of the Chairman's bright glowing eyes. "I'm afraid there will be no saving from those girls this time. They are in the human world right now for summer break. If an Ayashi inflicts harm upon a human, no matter the reason. I will be forced to expel them, and send them to jail. It is the law that has been followed for the past one hundred years."

Tsukune looked down, clenching his fists. "Then they'll call the police! They'll do something!"

"Do you honestly expect the police to get there in time? I'm sure you can figure out what will happen when they have no need of Akashiya-Chan anymore. A beautiful young woman."

Tsukune slammed his fist against the wall, shaking the cave around them. "SHUT UP!"

The Chairman eyed the severely damaged holy lock that rest on Tsukune's wrist. "You are wasting time sitting there."

Waving his hand towards empty space that led deeper into the cave, the large door that Tsukune had first entered in appeared. "A pair of clothes and the address sit in front of the door should you choose to go. I cannot provide transportation so you have to run…you better decide quickly. Time is ticking Tsukune-San. Akashiya-Chan's life and experiences lay in your hands right now."

The Chairman walked through the open door, leaving Tsukune alone as he disappeared into the darkness. Tsukune looked through the door onto the floor that lay a new set of clothes and a note on top. Getting up as he moved to the door, stopping in front of it.

Moka-San…I…I have to do something…

Tsukune turned towards the wall bringing up his clenched fist, he punched into the wall as hard as he could. "DAMN IT!"

Turning and rushing through the open door as the cave started to collapse in on itself, from missing a third of its structure. The door closing behind Tsukune by itself as he picked up the clothes and the note. Looking down at himself as he was only wearing a pair of dirtied, torn pants. Luckily he had taken a 'bath' earlier that day in a pond, so he wasn't dirty himself. Quickly pulling them off as he moved for the new clothes. Slipping on the blue denim jeans, white button down shirt, and brown sneakers. Leaving the shirt unbuttoned as he broke out into a full on sprint, clutching the note that contained the address in his hand. Moving through the deserted building rapidly.

The Chairman watched from his office as Tsukune ran towards the dimension gate. "Oh I am so getting hit for this when he gets back. But it's worth it I guess. Hmm…I must also inspect his Holy Lock…interesting, very interesting indeed."

Reaching the dimension gate that led into the tunnel, Tsukune looked down at the address. Looking back up to the tunnel, going back into his earlier pace. Running into the tunnel.

Hold on Moka-San, I'm coming. Wait for me.

SCENE CHANGE

Kokoa rushed out the inn, bumping into the girls. "Ouww!"

Ruby and Mizore helped Kurumu up from underneath Kokoa while Yukari helped her up. "How could you let my Onee-Chan get kidnapped!?"

The girl's eyes went wide as they stared at Kokoa. "I didn't think she got kidnapped! We were coming back to look for Kou since he was in the sky. And we can't find her anywhere."

Kou flew out of the inn, landing on Kokoa's shoulder squeaking like mad. "KYU! KYU! KYU!"

Kokoa looked over to Kou. "He says that he knows where they took Onee-Chan off to."

"If we know where her location is then we can go save her! Where is she Kou?." Ruby asked, looking over at the bat.

"If we move out as Ayashi then those unlucky humans will be put in quite a pickle." Kurumu stated, looking over the group.

"YO-SH let's go everyone." Everyone cried out as they thrust their hands into the air.

"…It's hopeless then." The bus driver said, flipping on his lighter, as he leaned against the bus.

Lighting his cigar as he stood a few feet away from the group. "When you are in the human world, Ayashi aren't allowed to inflict harm upon humans. No matter what reason you have for doing…it. If you break this law, then on top of being expelled, every one of you will be sent to jail."

"EEEEH!?" The group cried out as they all looked over to the bus driver.

"No waay even after we finally found out where she is…can't we do anything!?" Kurumu cried franticly.

The bus driver flashed a grin as his eyes glowed brightly. "Oh don't be so hasty, some things work themselves out on their own. How about we all just go in and have a nice drink instead?"

Kokoa looked over to the bus driver, reaching over to grab Kou to form a mace only to be stopped by Yukari. "Stop Kokoa-San, revealing our identities out in the open won't help in the matter either."

Kokoa looked over to Yukari furiously, pulling her wrist free. "What the hell am I supposed to do then!? My Onee-Chan is kidnapped! Are you telling me to just sit here and twiddle my thumbs!?"

The bus driver glanced over to the younger girl, his grin widening. "Yes, yes I am."

SCENE CHANGE

Tsukune watched ahead, running through the tunnel. Lights flashing in different colors on the sides. Narrowing his eyes at the approaching white light at the end of the tunnel. Shielding his eyes as he exited the darkish tunnel into the blazing sun above him. Halting his pace as he looked around his sandy landscape.

...There's the pier. The address should be close by now. I have to hurry.

Tsukune started up his run again. Not slowing down as he weaved between the people on the beach. Passing bikes that were speeding along, catching the attention of several beach goers. The younger girls blushing and gossiping with their girlfriends as they watched Tsukune run on. Particularly his chiseled front that was showing, as the wind picked up the ends of his shirt.

The boyfriends of the girls followed their eyes to Tsukune. Narrowing their own eyes at him, gritting their teeth as he was getting more attention from their girls then themselves. Smirking once they saw one of the guys that were at the outdoor gym moving to intercept him. A tall burly man walked out onto the stone path, moving in front of Tsukune's path of travel. A few yards ahead.

The man held up his hand. "Hold up there munch..."

Tsukune didn't bat an eye as he quickly looked to each side, seeing no way around the man. He leaped up, swinging his legs up as he cleared over the man. Leaving the man speechless as he starred at him. Coming back down into a slight crouch.

Tsukune looked slightly back. "Sorry, no time to chat!" Tsukune said before pushing off the ground into his run again.

The man regained his bearings, shaking his fist at Tsukune. "Hey brat! I was talking to you! Don't you run away!"

Every moment I waist the chances something happening worsen...come on speed up...speed up.

Tsukune pushed himself harder, his calves throbbing from being worked on so hard. Small cracks formed on the stone path as he continued pushing himself, gaining more speed. People got out of the way once they saw him coming, feeling the wind rush past them as he went by.

Tsukune didn't know how long he was running for, each sec felt like a hour. Finally reaching the office building that the address held. Glancing down at the paper, rereading the room number. Looking back up before running into the building, looking around seeing the elevator and the stairs. Taking one glance towards the elevator before rushing the stairs. Jumping two steps at a time. The room number stated it was on the twentieth floor, he had a long trip up.

SCENE CHANGE

"If you take a good look at her you see what a nice woman she is." The chubby man asked.

Five men stood around the room surrounding Moka and the girl who had crashed into Moka earlier. The sixth chubby man in the middle on the couch had his arm rested behind the girl. Wearing tan slacks with a blue flower pelted beach shirt under a jacket. And a set of thin green colored sunglass resting on his face.

"…So? Can you teach me, Nee-Chan. What is your relationship with sun?" The chubby one asked Moka.

Lacing her fingers together, looking around the room at all the men. "…I just met her a moment ago. She was searching for help."

"don' try an' lie ta me. Sun ya see, Sun won't involve people who she doesn' know. A good friend like you who she was able to rely on would know right? Sun's 'secret'. Sun has this mysterious power. The people with that power are able to control both money and people to their hearts content. Now even though I got my hands on such a girl with great difficulty, I still don't understan' what that power is very well. Vocal tubes not working well I can't use any torture on her though."

Strange power…could this girl be…

The chubby one grew a grin as he looked back towards his men. "And just as I was stuck there we were able to bring Onee-Chan back with us. We don't have to care if we break you."

The man behind Moka reach forward, grabbing her around her arm and waist well the one in front moved to grab her leg and arm. "KYAA!" Moka screamed as she desperately tried to kick away the men. Thrashing around, attempting to keep the men away from her.

The chubby one grabbed Sun's head as she tried to close her eyes and look away, turning her head back towards Moka as tears started to form under her eyes. "How is it Sun, you don't mind showing me your power now? If you don't hurry up and do so then you'll see cruel things done to your friend in front of your eyes."

Three men tried to restrain Moka, pinning her back against the couch ripping her blouse open. "NO…NO…STO.." Moka pleaded as she continued trying to push the men away.

One of the men muffled Moka with his hands as she continued to try to kick the men away. "MMMGGUU…"

The chubby one licked his lips as he starred at the sight before him. "Do it."

The door shot off its hinges as it broke into pieces. Hitting and destroying the furniture behind it. Colliding with the back wall, indenting into the wall. The ornaments and picture falling off the wall onto the rumble. "…What's this? You looking for someone?" The chubby one asked turning his gaze to the doorway.

Tsukune stood in the doorway. His hair reaching down to the back of his neck, slightly covering his face. Breathing out a heavy breath from running up the stair case. Looking around the room at the six men in the room, only five of which got up to face him. "…W, woah. I stumbled upon some hoodlumism going on inside an office. It looks like my breath has stopped in fear."

One of the men stepped forward, pulling a gun out of his jacket. "Who the hell are you supposed to be?" Putting the gun up against Tsukune's head. "What? You're trembling aren't ya? Don't do anythin' useless."

Glancing up at the man as he pushed his gun into Tsukune's head. Tsukune pushed his the man's hand up. The gun fired above his head into the wall. Before the man could pull it back Tsukune had already punched him in the chest with a haymaker. The haymaker sending him flying back into the wall.

The others looked back to the man who was now bleeding from his forehead from hitting the wall. The broken pieces of the door, falling on him.

Another man rushed Tsukune, pulling out a katana. "I'm not as kind as him…I won't show ya any mercy!"

Taking the Katana and slashing down at Tsukune. Tsukune sidestepped slightly left, letting the Katana chop a piece of his hair off. Uncovering his face more.

Another rushed up with another Katana as he slashed down at Tsukune. Alternating with the other man.

I don't have time for this. Get out of my way.

Tsukune dove forward, going between the blades as they crossed behind him. Both men looked between them as Tsukune shot out a fast left hook into the left one's gut. And a fast right for the other. They both doubled over as they fell to the floor. Clutching their stomachs, and dropping the Katanas to the floor.

The man at the back of the room got his gun out aiming at Tsukune. Tsukune took one look at the man before he rushed forward, diving to the right. The man fired to late and the bullet went sizzling past Tsukune into the wall. He turned his aim back to Tsukune, ready to follow up with a second shot. Tsukune pushed the man's hand off to the side as he turned sideways himself. The second bullet shot past Tsukune also hitting the wall. Tsukune kicked up, his shin hit the man in the stomach. The kick doubled him over as he got sent back a few feet, landing on his back.

Turning his attention to the last man, widening his eyes. The one man who was remaining had grabbed Moka, and pulled her off the couch. Putting the knife up to her neck, stopping Tsukune cold. "YA? Don't want to see the girl get her neck sliced out right now? How about you just put your hands on your head, and turn around."

"Don'." Moka started to say but stopped once the man had pressed the knife into her neck.

Tsukune slowly turned around, raising his hands on putting them on the back of his head. "Good, now kneel down. And don't talk either of you unless you want the girl to die."

Kneeling down onto his knees, as he waited. The man walked over to the gun that the first man had, picking it up. Tsukune looked around on the floor, examining each piece of broken furniture around him. The man aimed his gun at the back of Tsukune's head. Moka widened her eyes as she looked off to the side at the gun, then back over to Tsukune. Closing her eyes as she threw her head back. The back of Moka's head hit the man in the face, stunning him. Tsukune reached forward, grasping a sharp piece of destroyed furniture. He chucked it behind him. The stake shaped piece, embedded itself into the man's knife hand. Forcing him to drop the knife.

He grunted in pain as he grabbed Moka, and threw her to the side. Firing his gun at Tsukune who had turned around and was rushing him. Tsukune sidestepped the second shot that he fired and drove his fist into the man's side. Breaking several ribs as the man dropped the gun as he let the air out of his lungs with a large, dry sound. Tsukune then grabbed the back of the man's head as he forced him down. His knee collided with the man's nose, breaking it and also getting knocked onto his back. Holding his face and side on the floor.

Tsukune turned his attention to the chubby man who had now gotten off the couch and was backing away from Tsukune. Putting up his hands in fear. "Woah, woah man come on. We can work this out. You, you want money!? Uh…uh the girl!? Take the girl!"

Tsukune starred at the freighted man in front of him. "I want you gone, get out of the city. If I ever see you again I will kill you…GET OUT!" Tsukune yelled pointing towards the door.

The man scrambled out the door, tripping over every piece of furniture in the way. Tsukune watched him go before casting a glance at Sun, who was holding her notepad. Looking at Tsukune nervously, before looking over at the wide eyes, mouth gaped Moka. Turning his head towards the door as he started to walk to the doorway.

"…Ts…Tsukune?" Moka asked, slowly got up off the floor.

Tsukune stopped in his tracks, starring ahead. His body tense.

Continue walking…Don't look back…Don't…look…back…if you look back now...

Tsukune slowly turned to look back to Moka seeing tears run down her face. "It…it is you…"

Moka rushed forward, leaping onto Tsukune. Wrapping her arms around his neck as she buried her face in his shoulder. Clutching him afraid that he would disappear if she let go.

Read, review...if you want I guess...um...idk...rawr?
