It was nighttime and two girls had just finished getting changed in the locker room.

"What a day," said one girl.

"Yeah, that Kotsubo-sensei is a REAL bitch with her late-night instructing," said the other.

They left the locker room and returned to their dormitory.

"...uki...*WEEP* Tsuki..."

"Huh? Do you hear that?" One of the girls stopped as she heard whispering not too far away.

"...Tsuki...Tsuki...*SNIFF*"

The two girls turned their attention to a tree...and noticed somebody under it.

"*SOB*...Tsuki...Tsuki..." A gothic-looking boy was spying on a particular room through his binoculars; inside the room was—

*BAM*

Suddenly, Mizo was kicked to the ground by the two girls...

*STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP*

...who repeatedly stomped on the snow goth and yelled, "PEEPING TOM!" over and over again.

But as he was repeatedly being kicked, Mizo clenched his right fist.


"SAY WHAT?!" screamed Tsuki the next morning in the teacher's lounge. "You want me to go see Shirayuki-san?"

"Well...yes," said Mr. Nekonome, "he hasn't really been coming to school since the beginning of the second semester; in fact, he hasn't even been around LAST semester. If somebody doesn't help that boy, he could get into serious trouble."

"And you want ME to help him because..."

"...because YOU are the class manager."

"WHAT?! ARGH! FOR THE LAST TIME, I DID NOT WANT—ugh, never mind!"

"Excuse me, Nekonome-sensei?" Just then, a young woman in gym teacher clothing walked to Mr. Nekonome.

"Ah, Kotsubo-sensei, what's up?" asked the catlike teacher.

"I need to tell you something...about Shirayuki Mizo..."


"WHAT?! Shirayuki-san attacked two students last night?" yelled Kumaru later that day in the Newspaper Club room. "And he's probably going to be expelled for it?"

"How could he do such a thing?" asked Mako.

"Maybe he's upset because of what happened between him and Tsuki-san," suggested Yukinari.

"*SIGH* It just...just doesn't make sense," said Tsuki. "I mean I know he LOOKS like it, but there's no way he could EVER do something like that. Could he?"

*SLIDE*

"No, what he did was WORSE..." Just then, a teacher walked into the room.

"Kotsubo-sensei!" Tsuki exclaimed.

"He didn't just freeze those two girls...he RAPED them!"

"He WHAT?!" screamed the pink-haired vampire boy.

"I had just finished cleaning up the gym and was returning home, when I heard two female screams; by the time I got there, all I saw were my two female students...frozen...and with torn clothes...it's a good thing I managed to be there to break them free, or they would've probably died of hypothermia."

"B-But how'd you know it was Shirayuki-san anyways?" asked the incubus boy.

"I found this at the scene of the crime." Miss Kotsubo presented the club members with...

"Shirayuki-san's scrapbook!" the brunette girl whispered.

"And I know this isn't something you'd want to think about, Tsuki-chan, but I read the pages...and he's been apparently eyeing you for some time...just like last time..."

The club members became confused.

"*SIGH* I guess I have some explaining to do...you see, back at the beginning of the first semester, Shirayuki-san had apparently been eyeing a teacher of his classes, but after that teacher turned him down and asked him to leave her alone...he ambushed her in his office and attempted to sexually assault her. The teacher managed to break free, but Shirayuki-san encased her in ice, leaving the poor teacher to nearly freeze to death, and disappeared the following day."

"...But wait a minute! I heard about the teacher-freezing incident, but I NEVER heard anything about there being any RAPE involved~desu!" said the wizard boy. "How would YOU know about that?"

"..." Miss Kotsubo looked at all the students who looked at her, demanding an answer. "...Because that victim was ME!" She took out a folded-up message and gave it to the club to read...

kotsubo

if dere waz any woman who
could
melt my ice-cold heart
in a good way it would be u
i would really
like
it if we got together

mizo

"Well, what did you do about it?" asked Tsuki.

"Well, when I confronted Shirayuki-san, I told him that his letter was...well, 'nice', but also that I was a teacher, and that HE was a student, so I couldn't be with him," explained the gym teacher. "Unfortunately, he didn't take it very well...as later that evening, when I returned to my office, he was already waiting...and he told me in a cold voice that he didn't like being rejected so easily. I tried to leave, but he froze the door solid...and then he trapped my wrists and ankles in ice, ripped my clothes off, removed his pants, and then...*SIGH* I think you get the idea. Once I broke free, he encased me in ice...and nobody ever saw him since..."

The brunette human widened her eyes in terror.

"...Also, I found THESE..." The teacher then presented Mizo's binoculars to her. "Apparently, he was seen spying on you through these."

"...THAT was his motivation...all this time..." Tsuki couldn't handle it anymore; after taking two steps back...she fled the room in fear.

"Tsuki!" Mako quickly chased after her.


Kōmura Nazo says:

(horrified)
Oh my god! NOW it all makes sense. W—


"Wait a second! No, it doesn't!" yelled Kumaru all of a sudden (as if he actually heard Kōmura Nazo speaking).

"Huh? What do you mean~desu?" asked Yukinari.

"Kotsubo-sensei, I need to ask you something. Assuming what you said is true...how do you explain THIS?" the aqua-haired incubus boy presented a piece of paper to Miss Kotsubo that read...

Meet me in my office after school...and we can make out...

Kotsubo-sensei

"Kotsubo-sensei, if Shirayuki-san tried to rape you for rejecting his feelings, then why would you give him a letter asking him to meet you for a make-out session, huh?" Kumaru gave the teacher a pretty suspicious glare...and pretty soon, Yukinari did the same.

Miss Kotsubo started to become nervous, but soon...

"Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm..."

...She started laughing. "Hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee...heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh...ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha hah...HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HAH..."

"What the hell is so funny?" asked Kumaru.

"This is serious!" yelled Yukinari.

"HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HAH...*INHALE* I knew I should've gotten rid of that damn message!"

*WHACK* *WHACK*


Tsuki ran through the woods in terror. "I can't believe it...Mizo was trying to...to...to"

*BUMP* *THUD*

Tsuki fell onto her butt as she bumped into something.

"Tsuki-chan!"

"*GASP*" Recognizing the voice, Tsuki worriedly looked up at what she bumped into...and her fears were correct...

"Shirayuki-san!" she whispered in terror.

Mizo took out his cigarette to blow some smoke out of his mouth. "Did you come back for me?" he asked in joy as he took a few steps toward the girl she loved.

"G-GET AWAY FROM ME, YOU MONSTER!" Tsuki panickily crawled back on reaction.

"Monster? Well of course I'm a monster. We ALL are," said the snow goth. "Although personally...you seem to act and behave more like a...a...*SNAP* *SNAP* *SNAP* whatever they're called..." He snapped his finger a couple times to try and remember. "...uh it's on the tip of my tongue."

"YOU KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!" Tsuki snapped back. "I KNOW WHAT YOU DID TO THOSE GIRLS LAST NIGHT!"

"Well yeah, they attacked me and called me a pervert. I HAD to fight back!"

"BUT THAT DIDN'T GIVE YOU ANY RIGHT TO RAPE THEM!" the brunette human girl yelled as she got back onto her feet. "OR FREEZE THEM TO DEATH!"

"WHAT?! THAT'S NOT TRUE...well, SOME of that is..."


(Flashback)

"...Tsuki...Tsuki...*SNIFF*"

The two girls turned their attention to a tree...and noticed somebody under it.

"*SOB*...Tsuki...Tsuki..." A gothic-looking boy was spying on a particular room through his binoculars; inside the room was—

*BAM*

Suddenly, Mizo was kicked to the ground by the two girls...

*STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP*

...who repeatedly stomped on the snow goth and yelled, "PEEPING TOM!" over and over again.

But as he was repeatedly being kicked, Mizo clenched his right fist.

"Just who were you looking at!" yelled one of the girls who stopped stomping (while the OTHER girl continued).

*STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP* *STOMP*

"...Get off me..."

The other girl stopped stomping as she and the first girl felt a cold breeze passing them...as well as after hearing what she heard.

"...W-What did you just say...?" asked one of the girls.

"...Get...the...hell...OFF OF ME!" he screamed in anguish

*CRACKLE*

On cue to Mizo's scream of anguish, the two girls were encased in ice.

"*PANT* *PANT* *PANT* *PANT* *PANT* *PANT* *PANT* *PANT* *GASP*" Slowly getting up and breathing heavily, the snow goth looked back...only to gasp at what he saw: the girls who had attacked him were on encased in ice...and their clothes were torn up inside. "What have I done?" At that moment, he held out his hand...

*BUBBLE* *BUBBLE* *BUBBLE* *BUBBLE*

The ice thawed into a big puddle, releasing the girls; however, they were unconscious and fell into the puddle. Wasting no time, Mizo made a run for it...unaware that he dropped his scrapbook next to the two girls.

(End of Flashback)


"So...you DIDN'T rape them?" asked Tsuki in confusion.

"Of course not," explained Mizo.

"And...you thawed them out?"

The snow goth nodded in reassurance.

"...No...NO, y-you're LYING!" Tsuki yelled. "After what you did to ME yesterday, and after Kotsubo-sensei told me about what you—"

"*GASP*" Mizo became so shocked at what he heard that he opened his wide enough to cause his cigarette to fall out of his mouth. "...Kotsubo-sensei..." At that moment, he turned around and began to walk away, much to the shock of Tsuki.

"Huh? Where are you goin'?" the brunette asked.

"All this time...I thought YOU were the only one who understood my feelings...but, evidently...NOBODY will..." the snow goth whispered before walking off and leaving Tsuki behind.


A few minutes later, not far from Yōkai Academy, Mizo was standing at the edge of a cliff. "*SNIFF* *SOB*" Silently crying, he reached for the cigarette in his mouth...only to discover that it was gone; he pulled out his cigarette box from his left pants pocket and pulled out the last cigarette with his teeth. He then pulled out his lighter from the right pocket and held it up to his cigarette to—

*CLUTCH*

Suddenly, the snow goth was grabbed by somebody from behind, causing him to accidentally drop his lighter, cigarette, and cigarette box off the cliff. "Leave me alone, Tsuki-chan! Let me go! I said—"

"Careful!" whispered the voice of the woman behind him; her voice caused him to shudder. "Long way down...hope you don't fall..."

"...K-Kotsubo-sensei..."

"I knew you'd be here, Shirayuki-san. You always come here whenever you're depressed. Why don't we go back to school? Get to know each other a little more...like LAST time..."

"NO! NEVER!" Mizo screamed.


(Flashback)

Mizo opened the door to Miss Kotsubo's office. "Kotsubo-sensei?"

"I'm glad you made it." Inside, Miss Kotsubo was sitting on her desk...in a somewhat questionable position...and with her gym jacket opened up...

"Uh what IS this?" asked the snow goth.

"Isn't this what'cha want?" Miss Kotsubo jumped off the desk and approached the nervous teenage boy...in a somewhat sexual way. "You came like I asked, right?"

"Uh...yeah..."

"...Good...now close your eyes..."

Mizo obeyed and shut his eyes as he puckered up his lips. He waited...and waited...and waited...and—

*ZIIIIIIP*

Suddenly, a zipping sound caused him to open his eyes and look down. "Whoa! WAIT!" He quickly pushed Miss Kotsubo's head away from his crotch...as Miss Kotsubo was trying to remove his pants. "W-Wh-What the hell are you doing? I thought you said you wanted to make out with me!"

"Confession: I want to turn you into a man," Miss Kotsubo sexually whispered as she licked her lips.

"Well I-I'm sorry, but I'm a little too young for that." Zipping his pants back up, Mizo made his way for the door...but Miss Kotsubo had already beat him to it and locked the door tightly. "I'm afraid I CAN'T let you leave, Shirayuki-san," she whispered evilly.

*WHACK*

She suddenly whacked the snow goth to the ground with her now-monster hands. Mizo tried to get back up but was pinned to the ground by Miss Kotsubo.

"You're not leaving until I get what I want!" The slimy teacher prepared to remove his pants once again.

"NO! STOP! PLEASE!" the snow goth cried in terror with tightly shut eyes. "STOP IT! STOP! STOOOOOP! STOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOP!"

*CRACK* *CRACK* *CRACK* *CRACK*

After a few seconds, Mizo opened his eyes...and saw Miss Kotsubo encased in ice. Using this opportunity, Mizo rushed out of the room, passing a student...

(End of Flashback)


Kōmura Nazo says:

(horrified)
Now it really DOES all makes sense. WHEE!


"...I insist..." Miss Kotsubo whispered into Mizo's ear as he began turning around with her struggling captive to walk away.

"Get off! Get off! GET...OFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!"

*SMACK*

Mizo finally broke free by smacking Miss Kotsubo's forehead with the back of his head.

"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

*THUD*

The snow goth fell to his hands and knees as HE gasped for air...but then realized that he heard a fading scream from right behind him and turned back to the cliff. "KOTSUBO-SENSEI!" He quickly rushed to the edge of the cliff that Miss Kotsubo fell off, hoping that she was—

*WHIP*

Suddenly, a tentacle grabbed his foot. "Sheesh, don't you know how to take a joke, Shirayuki-san?" said a voice over the edge. The tentacle yanked Mizo's foot, nearly taking the snow goth off the edge; looking over the edge, he managed to get a glimpse at what Miss Kotsubo had turned into: a kraken.


Bite-Size Monster Dictionary:

Kraken
A monster that looks like an octopus. Legends say that a large one would be as long as several kilometers in length which even frightens the Vikings of the North. They are usually peaceful creatures but when they are angry, they will drag anything down to the bottom of the ocean.


"AAAAHHHHHHH! LET ME GO! PLEASE!" Mizo tried to kick the tentacle off his foot, but to no avail.

"You nearly froze me to death during the first semester...all for just a petty joke..." said the kraken attacker.

"PETtY JOKE?! BULLSHIT! You tried to *GRUNT* rape me!" the snow goth screamed. "I only *GROAN* did it in self-defense! AAHHH!" Desperate, he grabbed onto a thorn branch. "And I thought you wanted to make out *MOAN* with me!" The thorn branch began cutting into his hand as he tried to hold on in desperation.

"But I thought you said you LIKED me!" said Miss Kotsubo. "So why the hell are you complaining about being raped? I was only joking, but you took it a tad too seriously! And now...I WANT YOU OUT OF THIS SCHOOL FOREVER! YOU DON'T BELONG HERE!"

Hearing the words of his attacker, Mizo began to shed tears as he looked at the cuts on his hands as he began to lose his grip and slide further over the edge. "Who am I kidding? This is all my fault! I never should've fallen for her to begin with. And now...I'll die as I lived: alone..."

*SLIP*

Finally losing his grip, Mizo began to fall to his death with—

"SHIRAYUKI-SAN!"

*CLUTCH*

Mizo closed his eyes as he began the feel the cool breeze with his fall...except he NEVER fell! Confused, he looked up and saw...

"Tsuki!" he exclaimed.

"Hold onto my hand! I'll pull you up!" Tsuki pulled hard on Mizo's—

"PISS OFF!"

*WHIP*

Just then, Tsuki's neck was being latched onto by one of Miss Kotsubo's tentacles. Because of this, she began losing her grip of Mizo.

"No! Tsuki-chan! WAKE UP! PLEASE!" cried the snow goth.

"TSUKI!"

*BITE*

Just then, Mako rushed in and bit Tsuki's neck, causing a blinding light...

*FLASH*

"ARGH! What the hell was that?!" As the light dimmed above the ledge, Miss Kotsubo looked around and saw...nothing...except a blood-red sky...

*YANK*

Just then, she and Mizo were flung right over the edge onto the dirt ground; Mizo was thrown at Mako, while Miss Kotsubo was flung into a tree.

"Uhhh...wha..." Regaining consciousness, the Kraken saw who managed to somehow pull her and Mizo up: Tsuki...just standing there by the edge with her eyes closed.

Suddenly, Tsuki's eyes opened up to reveal his vampiric transformation.

"Thank god I made it in time!" Mako said as he pushed Mizo off of him.

"Wha...WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU?!" Miss Kotsubo screamed.

The modified vampire didn't answer...

*CREAK* *SNAP*

...she just fixed her neck.

"ARGH! WHY DON'T YOU JUST DIE!" The Kraken swung another tentacle at Tsuki—

*CLUTCH*

—but she easily caught it among impact. "You are SO annoying! GET OUT OF MY SITE!"

*SWING* *SWING* *SWING* *SWING* *SWING* *SWING* *SWING* *SWING* *SWING* *SWING* *SWING* *SWING* *SWING* *SWING* *SWING* *TOSS*

Using powerful swings, the modified human girl tossed Miss Kotsubo miles over the cliff and into the water.

The boys were aghast at the immense power of their savior.


Kōmura Nazo says:

This chapter's climactic battle took 98 words! WHEE!


The next day, Tsuki and Mako were walking to school together.

"I heard that Kotsubo-sensei was put into the hospital after what happened yesterday," said Tsuki.

"Yeah, but at least Shirayuki-san's won't be expelled after all since we cleared her name," said Mako.

Just then, as they passed a tree, they both started shivering as they felt a cold breeze.

"W-Why is it so c-c-c-c-chilly all of a sudden?" asked Mako.

"W-Wherever there's c-c-c-cold, t-t-there's always..." Looking back behind the tree, there was...

"S-SHIRAYUKI-SAN!" Tsuki screamed as she jumped back in fear.

"*BLOW* Hi, Tsuki-chan!" the snow goth said after he took out his cigarette and blew out some smoke.

"Wait a second!" said the pink-haired vampire all of a sudden. "Y-Your hair..."

"My hair?" Mizo looked confused for a few seconds, but then gave a smile. "Oh yeah, do you like it? I thought I'd change the color." Mizo hair color was not purple, and his goth make-up was gone too; his goth clothing was still the same though.

"Oh it—uh...looks great." Tsuki nervously blushed,

"Really?" The snow goth grabbed her arm romantically. "You really like it?"

"Uh well—"

"HEY!" Mako suddenly grabbed Tsuki and pulled her away. "Tsuki's mine!"

"Oh, HELL no!" Mizo yanked him back his way. "She's MINE! And MINE alone!"

"NO!" Mako pulled Tsuki back and...

*BITE*

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

End
