Shiena was a little bit worried when she came back to her apartment. She wasn't sure if she was appreciating the fact that Otoya will probably make her way with her, in the most sadistic and perverted way possible. The serial killer was always toying with Shiena's body, without any consideration for her feelings. Even if it was physically pleasant, the brunette didn't really appreciate this use of her body. Sometime she felt almost raped by her girlfriend.
The brunette entered into her apartment. It was dark and empty. Shiena, with prudence, looked in all the rooms. Otoya wasn't there. It was pretty strange. It wasn't normal that the serial killer wasn't there, especially because she was supposed to enjoy Shiena's body this night.
"Something must be happened to her" thought Shiena, worried.
Her cellphone suddenly rang. She had just got a message from Otoya's cellphone. Shiena read it. It wasn't from the serial killer.
"Dammit Otoya, what have you done again…?"
"It's time to wake up, Takechi-san. Otherwise, you will miss the party"
Otoya opened her eyes, but she could see nothing, it was pure darkness in the room. The serial killer began to panic when she noticed that she couldn't move. This situation remembered herself what happened with Sasoriza Midori. The voice she just heard, she recognized it, she was pretty sure that it was Shinya's voice.
"What the…Banba-chan?"
The light suddenly turned on, revealing that both Banba and Sumireko were in the room. Otoya could also notice that she was restrained with a straitjacket. The serial killer couldn't know if Banba was Mahiru or Shinya, the silver haired girl seemed to be Mahiru, but her voice sound more like Shinya.
"I don't know if you're Mahiru-chan or Shinya-san, but you better release me now!" tried to threaten Otoya.
Sumireko laughed a little bit of Otoya's menace. In her helpless situation, the serial killer wasn't scary at all.
"If you can't bite, don't show your teeth" said Sumireko. "Anyway, Mahiru-chan and Shinya-san are both a part of Banba-chan, she only lost her split personality. She don't need any more Shinya-san to protect her, she can protect herself. Well, both personalities are now mixed, this is why she can act more Shinya-like sometime"
This explained Banba's reaction toward Otoya, even if it was the daytime.
"Well, I don't give a fuck, just let me go you freaking robot!" shouted Otoya.
The serial killer suddenly obtained a violent kick in her stomach by Banba.
"Don't say rude things to Sumireko-san!"
Otoya succeeded to stand up, even if she couldn't move her arms.
"I don't have time for this, I have something really important to do tonight" said the serial killer.
"Unfortunately, I can't let you go" explained Sumireko. "You attacked my girlfriend, so I invited yours for a tea party"
"What?! What are you planning to do to Shiena-chan? I warning you, don't you dare…"
The cyborg grabbed Otoya and pushed her on the ground. Using a piece of tissue, she gagged the serial killer.
"You're not in the position to make that kind of menace, Takechi-san" said Sumireko. "You don't mind if Banba-chan takes her revenge for your attitude toward her when you were in Black Class? I think it's legitimate, don't you think Banba-chan?"
Otoya tried to say no, but she couldn't because of the gag in her mouth.
"It would be with pleasure" said Banba, with Shinya's sadistic smile on her face.
The serial killer felt a huge panic when she saw Banba's hammer.
"Don't worry, if someone kill you tonight, it won't be one of us" said Sumireko, before leaving the room.
"I only gonna play with ya, while Sumireko-san will take care of Kenmochi-san"
The silver haired girl suddenly crashed her big hammer just next to Otoya, making her scream of fear through her gag.
"The party can start!"
"Your tea is going to cool down" said Sumireko.
Shiena was sitting in front of Sumireko, at a huge table. The brunette was kind of surprise by her house. She already knew that the cyborg was rich, but not that rich. She began to sap her tea.
"You send me a message, telling me that Otoya was in danger" said Shiena. "What happened?"
"Ara, I see that you call her by her first name. You must be really close of Takechi-san, don't you?"
"Answer to my question!"
"You're worried about her. What's the nature of your relationship? A friend? You're lovers? Friends with benefits?"
The brunette seemed a little bit embarrassed by these questions.
"Why are you asking that?"
"Because, I don't understand how you could date that kind of horrible person" answered Sumireko. "Did you know that you're girlfriend attacked my girlfriend?"
"Otoya attacked Banba?!"
Sumireko seriously gazed Shiena, a little bit menacing.
"Do you really love her, Kenmochi-san?"
"Unfortunately, yes"
"I see. The plaster on your cheek, it's for hiding a scar she did to you? She assaults you, doesn't she?"
The brunette didn't answer.
"You're in a relationship with someone who hurt you? You have a Stockholm syndrome or what? You must be crazier that Takechi-san…"
Shiena suddenly rose up from her chair, annoyed by what Sumireko said.
"Keep your opinion for yourself, I won't allow you to judge my relationship with Otoya!" shouted Shiena, angry. "Look, I'm sorry for what she did to Banba, it won't happen again, I swear, I'll talk to her. So please, I don't know what you did with Otoya, but let her go…"
The brunette began to feel a little bit dizzy and her entire body seemed to become warmer. She noticed a slight smile on Sumireko's lips. Shiena understood too late that she just fell into a trap.
"What did you put into me tea?! You have…drugged me!"
Never mess with a cyborg's girfriend! What kind of drug did Sumireko used on Shiena? What she's planning to do with her? Who is suppose to kill Otoya? To be continued in chapter 24...
