With the highly anticipating wet t-shirt contest approaching, all of the students prepare for the summer seaside trip. However, things complicate when Usano receives a message from his past, coming to visit the school. But who is it? An untold chapter about to unfold…
-Hachimitsu- [Hallway]
August 2nd (Monday)
12:00pm
"MOVE OUT OF THE WAY!"
"COMING THROUGH! MAKE WAY! OR ELSE YOUR GONNA GET HURT!"
"EVERYONE MOVE NOW IF YOU VALUE YOUR LIFE!"
Chaos erupts through the once quiet and peaceful hallway of Hachimitsu. The sound of crashing into objects could be heard a distance away from them. A dust storm kicking up behind what appears to be a speeding bullet. Rushing down the hall as many students reacted just at the nick of time to move out of the way. But just as the figure ran past them, they found out who the figure was. Running in only his speedo briefs, it was Usano. The chairman of Hachimitsu. Riding on top of his back was a terrified Etsuko who was screaming at the top of her lungs.
Around his waist he was wearing a thick rope wrapped around him, hanging onto the other end of the rope were Matsuri, Tsubaki, Megumi and Yukina. All four of them were just as terrified as they were hanging on to their dear lives.
Running behind them were an army of men dressed in black.
"EVERYONE! CLEAR THE HALLWAY! DON'T GET INTO THE CROSSFIRE!" Matsuri yelled at the top of his lungs.
"MEN! HURRY! DETAIN THAT BEAST BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE! USE ANYTHING TO SLOW HIM DOWN!" Yukina shouted up ahead.
"YES! LADY YUKINA!" All the men in black shouted, following her order.
"MEN! FORM AN IMPENETRABLE WALL! MAKE SURE TO STAY STRONG AND STURDY!"
Up ahead, more men in black appeared out of nowhere. Stretching across each other to block the pathway of the incoming torpedo! Linking each other by grasping their hands, forming a wall to stop the incoming figure that fast approaches them.
"STAY STRONG, MEN!" One of the men in black said with a strong sergeant like voice. "Our target may have unimaginable strengths, but there's absolutely no way he can penetrate our wall!"
Despite him saying that, some of his comrades could only tremble a little in fear. Already thinking of their doom. Their fear only grew when the incoming target fast approaches. They could feel the ground shaking underneath their feets.
"S-SIR! I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS GONNA WORK!"
"IT WILL DAMN IT! HOLD STRONG!"
The figure approaches closer.
"WE'RE GONNA DIE!"
"WE'RE GONNA LI-!"
*CRASH!* *BOOM!*
Just like that, the incoming missile crashed right into them. Their bodies flying in the air, off to the side. Some of them hit the opposite wall, while the other crashed through the windows. Usano pushed through like they were nothing to him. Etsuko screamed more.
"EEEEK! HE JUST PLOWED THROUGH LIKE THEY WERE NOTHING!" Etsuko yelled.
"FUCKING HELL! THIS IS RIDICULOUS!" Tsubaki yelled.
"HOW CAN SOMEONE BE THIS POWERFUL AND YET BE AN ORDINARY HUMAN!" Matsuri yelled with questions in his head.
…..
[Hello every-ONE. My name is Usano Kurihara. The chairman of Hachimitsu. As you can…SEE. You're possibly wondering how I ended up in this predicament. Why are these brave men trying to stop me for I have lost all of humani-TY. It's a long story…and furthermore a rather crazy day. So allow me to fill you in on what exactly happened to lead up to this….moment. It was a normal and beautiful morning. The students and teachers were preparing for the summer seaside trip that is approaching. Yes…it was all calm. That was until…I received a letter from a familiar person. Yes…I never dreamt nor was I prepared to hear back from…HER.]
-Chairman Office-
Before the Disaster…
9:00am
Inside his office, Usano was sitting on his chair behind his desk. Looking out the window without much of a thought in his head. Enjoying the quiet and peaceful moment to himself until he hears…
*Knock. Knock. Knock.*
"You may…enter." He said without turning his head.
Coming through the door, inside the room were Takamoto and Kiruyu. The two teachers enter inside and closed the door behind them. Walking inside, the two note the man looking out the window.
"Is something wrong, Chairman?" Kiruyu asked.
"...nothing much. Just enjoying the peaceful moment of Hachimitsu. A lot of things happened during the end of July, it almost as if it lasted…forever." He said to himself.
The two women picked up on what he meant.
"So much trouble from just a simple trivial case. Never would have thought that we would get the school involved with the yakuza…then again I never thought we had someone who was originally PART of the yakuza either." Kiruyu said as she eyed Takamoto.
The nurse sighs to herself. "That was long ago, I stopped serving for his group. Just be glad that we all survived or else we would have experienced a much worse fate."
"Can't argue with that…still though. All that trouble because of an innocent girl's death. Thinking back, all of this could've been avoided."
"Even if it was avoided," Usano spoke, attracting their attention. "The outcome would've likely been the same. But, the damage has been done. In more than one way, but we should all be grateful that the storm has passed. Peace has returned to Hachimitsu, students no longer will have to live in constant fear with those ruffians breathing down their necks. Yes…the worst has passed for the…moment."
"You think Tatsuya will come back?" Kiruyu asked.
"It's likely." Takamoto answered. "Nothing would surprise me with that man…but for now. Let's focus on catching our breath. This is something all of us need for the moment."
"Right you are, Takamoto-sensei. Let us forget about the sleeping wolves and focus on more important matters at hand. That is…the summer seaside…TRIP."
Kiruyu suddenly had a disgusted look on her face. "Ugh, I recalled that. I happen to run into one of the boys, Joe I think. He was mumbling to himself about 'girls in bathing suits' 'wet titties' or something like that. I couldn't help but scowl."
Takamoto chuckled at that. "Just let them be. Their boys. It can't be helped. As long as they don't cause any trouble than it's all good."
"Indeed. For now, all I want is-"
*SLAM!*
Their conversation halted when a familiar figure came rushing inside the room!
"FATHER! FATHER!" Chiyo yelled with an excited expression. "Oh! Takamoto-sensei and Kiruyu-sensei! I wasn't expecting to run into you two as well."
"Ah, Chiyo. Good morning." Takamoto greeted Kiruyu following alongside.
"Good morning, dearest daughter. Does something…matter?"
"Oh! That's right!" Chiyo said, bouncing back up, looking at Usano with a smile. "Me and Mari got a call from mother!"
"!"
Chiyo got a reaction from the three adults. Takamoto and Kiruyu were rather surprised to hear something or even a word from the mother of the Kurihara family. However, Usano's face grew pale as if his heart had stopped.
"Is that so, haven't heard from Asuka in a while?" Takamoto said with a grin.
"That is surprising. Are you sure it was her?"
"Yup!" Chiyo said as she bounced in place. "Just as I was talking with Onee-chan and Kate-chan. I just suddenly got a call from Asuka, she said she was coming over for a surprise visit."
No one didn't noticed yet. But Usano's color almost drained at the thought. He slightly trembled in place.
"Wait!? Today!?"
"Yeah!"
Kiruyu ran her hand through her face. "Damn it, we still have yet to clean up the school! Damn those punks, spraying graffiti arts all over the walls and leaving trash all over the place!"
"Calm down," Takamoto said as she rested her hands on her shoulders. "We managed to clean up some mess from the aftermath. If we can be fast enough, we can at least make the school look decent before her arrival."
"Onee-chan and Kate-chan have already got to work by notifying the others to pick up the pace with the cleaning." Chiyo said as she jumped a little with joy. "It's been so long since I saw mom! This is so exciting! What about you father!"
"..."
All three of them looked at the man who had a pale color. His eyes looked past them.
"Usano?" Takamoto asked.
"H-Huh!?"
"You suddenly blanked out. You alright?"
"Oh! O-Of course! I was just thinking how I have yet to see my wife for so long after our little fallout. But I'm glad to hear from her again…s-so yes…I am…good!" He said giving a thumbs up.
Despite his rather optimistic behavior, the others didn't seem too convinced.
Usano cleared his throat. "R-Right…I shall see you all later…"
"Hm? Where are you going?" Chiyo asked as she tilted her head.
Usano stopped in track before he was about to head towards the door. Frozen in place before answering them. He looks back at them with a smile. "I am preparing myself for my wife…ARRIVAL!"
On that note he ran out the room.
"W-What the!? F-Father!?" Chiyo shouted after her father as he bolted down the hall. The youngest daughter tilted her head. "Huh? I thought he was excited?"
"I wouldn't worry too much." Takamoto said as she rested her hand on her shoulders. "Your father is just a little on edge at the moment. He just needs to recollect himself, for now you just help out with the cleanup."
"Right…" Chiyo said.
-Courtyard-
Out in the courtyard, Matsuri and his friends (minus Etsuko) were cleaning up some of the parts of the school. Matsuri, Tsubaki and Yukina were picking up scattered trash on the grounds. Megumi was scrubbing the graffities off the wall.
"Gah, this sucks." Tsubaki complains as she picks up a crushed beer can from a bush and throws it in her bag. "Damn yakuza punks, just tossing their beer cans all over the place like it's their own place!"
"Oh, stop your complaining." Yukina said with an annoyed tone. "This job isn't gonna get done if you just mouth off over there non-stop. And mumbling to yourself doesn't help either."
"I just hate this." Tsubaki said with a glare. "Damn pigs. We've been trying to clean this shit up a couple days back and it STILL feels like we're not going anywhere at all."
"She's not wrong." Megumi said with an equally annoyed glare as she was scrubbing off the graffities off the wall. "They really made this school their own home when they took over the place. Just suck it up will ya, we need to get this place cleaned up because we're expecting a guest today."
"Right," Tsubaki rolled her eyes. "The Crow Mistress and Chiyo's mother."
Despite Matsuri knowing this, he was still surprised by the whole situation. "If what Meiko said was correct, I wonder how Mari's mom is gonna react to seeing the school like this."
"Or worse, she sees that boy's are attending the school." Megumi brought up that only made the others groan.
"And of course, our ever so friendly neighbors, perverted boys are gonna make the worst impression on her and she's gonna blow a fuse if those dumbasses step out of line."
"Wouldn't surprise me if that happens. But they've gotten better…to an extent. But I'm sure they wouldn't dare step out of line. Especially considering this IS Mari's and Chiyo's mom we're talking about here."
Yukina had a thought in her head. "Now that I think about it…how would she feel about you, Matsuri?"
Matsuri looks over Yukina with a confused expression.
"I mean, it's guaranteed that she may have heard the news about Yoshimiya's death and you and Hayakki's involvement. How would you think she feels about you attending the school…"
Matsuri took a moment to think about it, he's not surprised that the news about him indirectly killing Yoshimiya, but he never thought of her reaction to the mess. "How would she react to me?"
*Clonk.*
"Ow."
The girls hear Matsuri and what sounds like a can being tossed at him. The boy looks at the beer can on the ground near his foot.
"Oops. Sorry about that~."
The group looks to see three girls giving Matsuri a smug look.
"Oi!" Tsubaki yelled. "You threw that beer can on purpose did you!?"
The first girl merely just shrugged. "I don't know what you mean~. But I bet that perverted killer over there needs to pick up the slack, because he missed a can on the ground."
"Of course…" Matsuri thought to himself with an annoyed groan.
Tsubaki raises herself from the ground and angrily points at the girl. "You bitch! You threw that at him on purpose! You pick it up!"
"And while you're at it, please us alone and go mess with someone else." Yukina said as she glared at her.
Megumi didn't say anything but glared at the girls, not appreciating how they were treating Matsuri.
The girls, of course, did not appreciate their hostility. The second girl points at the boy with a fierce glare. "That bastard shouldn't be in our school! If anything, he belongs in prison where the criminals are!"
"That's right," The third girl said. "He killed someone and is now attending our school like everything is normal! And not only that, he brought those yakuza's over to our school! We almost died that day!"
Tsubaki could only scowl at them. "Hello, you're still alive are you? And he risked everything to save you sorry asses."
"Exactly as my friend stated." Yukina said as she placed her hands on her hips. "Now if you don't mind, please leave Matsuri alone so we can continue our business."
Matsuri could only sigh at this as he spoke up. "Guys, let's just ignore them and continue with our work."
"Ooh~, so now you talk?" The first girl said.
Matsuri looks at the girls with a firm glare. "Look, I know you girls have beef with me, but could this wait, we're busy here."
"Tch, look at you, acting all nonchalant. Even though you're a murderer and almost killed us and the entire school." She said as she grit her teeth. "No matter how you try to throw out any petty words at us, you are still and will forever be a murderer AND a coward!"
Yukina, Tsubaki and Megumi did not enjoy how these girls were showing hostility towards the boy, the same one who threw his second redemption away to save the school. But now here they are, Matsuri being insulted by some girls who apparently had nothing better to do.
Matsuri however, didn't back down, but still didn't lose his anger. "This is a waste of time…"
"OH SHUT UP YOU PERVERTED FREAK! WHY DON'T YOU DO US A FAVOR AND GET OUT OF HERE!" The girl threw a beer can at the boy.
However, before it could even reach the boy. Someone came and grabbed the beer can in the air. It wasn't Yukina, Tsubaki or even Megumi who grabbed the can. But instead, it was Asuna (Slut/Bitch-san) out of all of the people who grabbed the beer can and was giving the girls a glare.
She gave out a sigh. "Honestly, you girls just have nothing better to do, huh?"
"What you said, bitch?" Asked the girl.
Asuna didn't respond immediately before throwing the can back at the girl, bonking her in the forehead, earning a yelp from her. "Sure, I may not entirely agree with Matsuri's actions with Yoshimiya and felt like there could've been many other ways for him to help her in the end. But didn't he save Hachimitsu before we all were going to blow up or suffer even worse under those yakuza punks."
The girl gritted her teeth. "Who cares! None of this would've ever happened if he actually man up and saved Yoshimiya! Maybe then those yakuza's bastards would've invaded our school!"
Asuna gave out another sigh. "Sure, I was scared shitless myself…I thought me and my friends weren't going to ever see the light of day…but Matsuri and the others pulled through in the end and saved us all. Hell, you should be grateful that you got to live to see the sunlight, but instead you're just being a petty bitch about it."
This angered the three girls who glared at Asuna. "Why you…"
Asuna motioned her hand to shoo them away. "Why don't you three make like birds and get out of here will ya. We still need to clean up what those bastards left. Or do you want me to tell the chairman that you three instead of cleaning up the school, chose to harass a student."
The first girl took a moment to think about that. Just to avoid any conflict with the council or the chairman, she huffs in the air and leaves with her friends. Mumbling under her breath while she walks away.
"Hmph, honestly, the nerve of some individuals." Yukina said as she flicked her hair. "They came here to only cause trouble instead of helping out with the mess. It's those types of people who are not worth speaking to at all."
"Ugh…." Tsubaki looks over at Asuna who sighs to herself as she runs her hand over her face. "Still though, I wasn't expecting to see you here and put those bitches in their places."
"Oh, I was just on a quick break, but then I saw those bitches were mumbling about Matsuri, so I decided to do some sneaking to see if they weren't going to cause any trouble."
"Well, it was good for you to show up anyways. Otherwise I feared Tsubaki and/or Yukina would've killed some people." Megumi said as she pointed to the two girls.
"You know I would."
"Of course, I would merely perform a scare tactic, then I would threaten them by bringing my kunai near their neck."
Asuna grew worried at their potential actions. "W-Well, good thing I got here."
Matsuri held a smile. "Either ways…thanks for the help, Asuna."
Asuna didn't say anything but held a conflicted look, feeling the need to smile for the boy, but also held a frown before facing the other way. "Sorry."
"Huh?"
Asuna held an ashamed look on her face. "When we first met…I know me and my friends did some horrible actions against you. It was totally uncalled for…we didn't know that you were going through some trouble of your own…so…I don't think I ever apologized to you for that incident and I don't know if you'll accept my apology or not…so…I'm-"
"Asuna." Matsuri interrupted her. He held a warm smile. "We're friends, right? You don't have to apologize for that little encounter we had a while back. Besides, I'm not the type to really hold such a grudge anyways, why do you think I went light on you and your friends' punishments when you were thrown in prison."
Asuna blinked at the boy.
"Sure, it did scare me…but you did help us during the sports festival and even helped us the sleeping wolves. If anything, I say…yeah, we're good." He said, offering a grin.
Asuna didn't know what to say after that. She was torn between either being completely lost of words or just running up and hugging him for being so nice to her. Her lips curled into a soft smile.
"Honestly, this world doesn't deserve such a nice boy like you." She said almost tearing up at the boy before turning. "I gotta get back to the others. I'll see you all later."
The others waved back at the girl who walked away.
"She is right, you are a nice boy…a bit too nice." Yukina said.
"Tell me about it, it's kind of annoying at times. But you can be such a chick magnet."
"True."
Matsuri groans at them. "Well excuse me for being a nice guy."
"Don't get me wrong, I'm not making fun of you or anything." Megumi said with a grin. "You were always the most patient and understanding type. That's what Yoshimiya loved about you."
Matsuri offered a soft smile. "Thanks Megu-"
"HEEEEEEEEEY YOUUUUUUUU GUUUUUUUUYS~!"
They all stopped and turned around. Only to find a small figure rammed right into Matsuri's stomach. Causing him to fall on the ground. The three girls look back at the boy with concerned and confused expressions.
Matsuri was on his back with his legs held up in the air. He looks down at his chest to find two pairs of familiar red ribbons in the form of rabbit ears.
"Etsuko?"
"Ah. No wonder this morning felt eerily peaceful." Yukina said as she already wore a blank expression hiding her face behind her fan.
Etsuko lifted her head from Matsuri's chest and beamed a wide surprise look on her face. "YOU GUYS ARE NEVER GONNA BELIEVE THIS! I FOUND SOMETHING AMAZING!"
"You found your brain. I hope." Yukina snarked.
"I'm ignoring that! You guys gotta come see!"
Matsuri and the others were rather confused by the small girl's sudden energy. But something is already telling them that whatever that attracted Etsuko's attention. Something was telling them they were in for a treat…or something worse.
-Front Gate Entrance-
"Where is he?"
Mari was tapping her foot on the ground as she leaned against the wall. Waiting alongside Kate and Takamoto who were also waiting alongside her. Mari's eyes scanned the yard, hoping to find someone, but from her expression, she couldn't see.
"Father. Where in the world are you? She's almost here."
"Would you calm down, already?" Kate said with an annoyed tone, glaring at Mari. "You've been tapping your foot against the ground non-stop. It's giving me a headache."
"I'm sorry." She said as she halted her tapping. "But it's just that Chiyo has yet to return with father. And mother is also approaching soon."
"I'm sure she'll find him. He's possibly hiding somewhere if Chiyo is having a hard time looking for him." Kate said with a shrug.
Mari hums to herself, letting her words sink in. "I can't deny that…mother and father relationships aren't exactly the best to be honest."
Kate thought for a moment. "I have to ask, if your father and mother don't exactly see eye-to-eye. Why is she coming to visit the school now of all time that she could pick. Not to mention, she doesn't exactly like the chairman, right? So what's the occasion."
"She's worried about us." Mari answered. "Even though they splitted up, she still checks up on me and Chiyo from time to time. And of course she watches over father to an extent as well…but that's only once in a blue moon."
Takamoto looks at the young crow mistress who held a worried expression. "Something tells me you want mother and father to make up so you all can get together as a family again."
Mari blinks for a moment before looking the other way. "You're not wrong…but I can already tell you that's just wishful thinking. I'm sure father would love to bring the family together again…but mom…well, let's hope she has a different outlook."
Kate rolled her eyes at the girl. "I'm sure things will turn out fine in the end. You won't know until you see it through, right?"
"...perhaps you're right…but we'll have to see when she arrives and see her impression."
"How about now?"
Takamoto points to the front entrance, pointing to the limousine that parked right in front of the school front gate. This grabbed many students' attention, seeing the long black car. Mari walked up to the limousine with a calm expression, she saw an older gentleman wearing a black and white suit.
"Hello again, Young Madame." The older man bowed.
Mari bowed to him as well. "It's been a while, Suda. I trust that mother is inside the car."
"Yes."
Suda wasted no time as he reached for the door, opening wide for the figure inside to swing her long slender legs out the car. Coming out of the vehicle was a tall beautiful woman who looked rather similar to Mari. Sporting the black raven hair and eye color. However, her hairstyle was somewhat different. With her bangs covering her right eye and her hair was much shorter than Mari's. Ending at the shoulders and base neck. Wearing a white hat in contrast to her dressing theme color. She wore a black dress with a skirt that reached down to her knees.
All of the students' eyes widened at the woman's appearance.
"Wooow, she looks stunning. Almost like a supermodel."
"Doesn't she look a little like Mari?"
"Guess we know where Mari got her looks from."
Kate was also in agreement with the other students who were stunned by her appearance. "She looks like an older Mari…I wonder if this is what she'll look like when she grows…"
Kate is already imagining what she would like. Much similar to the mother, but her hair was longer and wore a more eloquent dress that defines her personality. Kate shook her head with a blush on her cheeks, she didn't need anyone to know her imagination.
The woman raised her hat a little, her sharp eyes looking at Mari with a smile. "Hello, my dear daughter, Mari."
Mari offered a smile in return. "Hello mother. It's good to see you again."
"Yes, it's good to see you as well." The mother said before turning to see Takamoto. "Ah, Takamoto, it's good to see you as well. Is the school treating you well?"
Takamoto grinned. "Well, you could say that…"
The mother blinked at her gesture before she followed her line of eyesight. Both she and Suda look at the school. If it was just a small mess, she wouldn't mind. But from what she was seeing, it caused her to raise her hat more, taking a look at the sight.
Broken glass windows, the walls that surround the school were somewhat broken and crushed, even creating a narrow trench around it. Graffiti drawn on the wall that either depicts monstrous wolves, naked women showing off their breasts, sacred areas and rear butts being pushed forward. And of course, beer cans were crushed and thrown all over the place.
Both the mother and the butler were looking at the school before them with similar reactions, but the mother got more reaction out of this scene.
The mother coughed into her fists as she regained her composure. "I see, this school certainly went through a…makeover the last time I was here."
All three of them had uncomfortable expressions on their faces.
"Ah well…we had a bit of…shall we say…fun on our end." Takamoto said with an uneasy look.
"If being threatened with our lives on the line is what you call 'fun'." Kate thought to herself.
The mother's eyes turned towards the orange hair teen who flustered under her glare. "Ah. I assume this must be Kate?"
"Yes." Mari introduced her. "This is Kate Takeyomiya. She's the current student council president of Hachimitsu."
"Student council…ah. Yes. You did mention that in your letter."
Kate blinked as she looked at Mari with a confused expression. "You mentioned about me?"
"Why are you surprised? Of course I did." Mari said.
"D-Did you…mention everything that happened between us?"
"She did." The mother said with a firm tone. Giving Kate a glare. "I will say this, I do not appreciate how you tried to get rid of my daughter."
Kate whimpered a little.
"However, she did say that she was grateful to you for saving Hachimitsu…and I should be grateful that you also contributed to helping my daughter and saving the school. And have also seemed to let go of your hostility towards Mari."
Kate blinked wildly, unsure how to respond to her sudden change of mood. Shaking her head, she looks at the mother with an attempted smile. "Y-Yeah, w-we're cool now."
The mother once more scanned the area, her eyes narrowed. "Where is that man?"
Mari and the others blinked at what she meant…only for it to click in Mari's brain of whom she meant. "You mean, father?"
"Yes. I assume he received the message from Chiyo, given that she texted me about him." She said as she crossed her arms under her bust. "So I'm curious, where is he?"
Takamoto answered. "He's currently trying to mentally prepare himself."
Mari and Kate turned towards the nurse, both wearing baffled expressions.
"WHY DID SHE HAD TO SAY IT SO CASUALLY!?"
"It will possibly be a while for him to come around, so how about we take the time and catch up. Perhaps you and Mari could do some catching up with each other. I'm sure both her and the council have very interesting stories to tell you of all the amazing events that you have missed."
Takamoto couldn't help but offer a playful smirk at both Mari and Kate who looked at her with mixtures of glare and pouts. Knowing full well she did that on purpose and as well to keep the mother occupied so before Usano can come around.
"How about it, Asuka?"
Asuka pondered for a moment. "Very well then. I think it's a swell idea. There are some rather ENTERTAINING stories I would love to hear from you."
Mari and Kate noted the glare she was giving. The crow mistress could already know what she was thinking.
"Very well then, let's continue this conversation in the council room." Kate offered.
"Yes, that will do. Suda, you may go ahead and attend to your own business if you wish. I will be alright." Asuka said to the older gentleman.
Suda bowed in respect. "Very well, Madam."
Suda doesn't waste time as he returns back into the car and drives away from the school. As he is gone, Asuka looks over at the two teens. "Very well, shall we then."
Bowing their heads, the two led the way inside the school. Takamoto waved at them not before her gaze looked off to the side. Narrowing her eyes. "Usano…where the hell are you?"
-Girls Dormitory- [Etsuko/Tsubaki Room]
Matsuri, Yukina, Tsubaki and Megumi did not know what to think of the situation they were looking at right now. Sitting on the ground, feeling ashamed of himself, both his knees folded and hands together. His head hung in shame. Was Usano.
"..."
None of them did not even dared speaking or didn't even know what to say at this point. Or even how to even know what's going on here.
"...Etsuko. What is this? Why is the chairman here?" Matsuri asked a curious question.
"I found him hiding in the library!"
"Hiding?" Tsubaki asked with a raised brow, causing Usano to lower his head in shame.
"Yeah! Said he was trying to hide from his past that comes back to haunt him! Though I didn't know what he meant by that, I knew if he was hiding from someone, there was no way that hiding in the library would be the best hiding spot! Only a complete dumbass would hide there! So, I hid him in the least suspected place, OUR ROOM!"
They all looked from Etsuko to Usano who nodded his head shamefully.
Yukina sighs to herself, cooling herself with her fan. "Thank goodness. And here I thought you were suddenly getting some nasty habits from those sleeping wolf ruffians."
"Of course not!" Etsuko said with a pout.
Megumi crossed her arms under her bust. "So…why is the chairman hiding? What happened?"
Usano sighs to himself. "I…I'm hiding here…because I am hiding from my…wife."
"YOUR WIFE!?" All of them said at once.
"Yes. My…wife."
"H-Hold on! You mean the same special guest that we're expecting today, the person you're hiding from is your wife!?"
"Yes…"
Tsubaki was beyond confused. "Hold on, something not adding up here, why the hell are you hiding from your wife? Aren't you two supposed to be a couple or something? You're not experiencing any domestic violence's or anything, are you?"
"Oh heavens no! We're not experiencing anything of the sorts like that. However…our relationship…back then was smooth…until an incident have…happened."
"An incident?" Matsuri asked.
"Let's say that…I did something horrible and unthinkable…she wouldn't dare look at me in the face ever again. Or even think of me as a…man."
Yukina hid her face behind the fan. "Oh, did you get into an affair? Hopefully not."
Usano shook his head. "No. I didn't. But I did something far worse…but…I wish not to speak about it…if that's alright with you…all."
Matsuri and the others glanced at each other with sympathetic looks before nodding at the chairman.
Usano gave out a sigh. "Thank you. The last thing I need is to bring up my mistakes from the past. Though it does push me to become not just a better person…but a better…father!"
Matsuri tilted his head out of curiosity. "So…why are you hiding exactly?"
Usano felt uneasy for a moment. He got up from his position and looked out the window. "I guess it was a flight or fight response, to be honest. Everytime I hear something from Asuka, my body becomes tense, my heart rate increases…I just…run…away."
"Sounds like you and Asuka have some bad blood."
"Not entirely. The feelings between us are very one-sided. I wish to show her that I have become a better man. I want our family to become whole once more…but…I can't even face her in-person. Even hearing her name will send my body to the hill and never come back. If only I can relax myself and muster up the courage…I can maybe…just maybe…talk to…HER!"
The group hears his pleas. They all shared a look with one another, knowing that Usano was fully serious about this. Of course, the small first year gained a grin.
"I see, I see," She said, causing the others to look at her with worried expressions. "So you wish to reconcile with your wife then…I get ya…"
"I got a bad feeling about this." Matsuri, Tsubaki and Megumi thought at once.
Etsuko planted her fists on her hips with a smug. "Fear not, Chairman! I shall-"
*SMACK!*
"OW!"
Out of nowhere, Yukina smacks her on top of the head with her fan. The ojou ninja teen gave the small first year a glare.
"Hmph. Child. You were going to do something utterly ridiculous again that would only cause trouble in the future. Am I correct?"
Etsuko pouted at the girl. "The hell is that supposed to mean!? My plans don't ALWAYS cause trouble!"
"Etsuko, do I need to remind you that YOU were the one who hypnotized Kiyoshi to blurt out all of those things between him and Hana. Causing one wild goose chase across the campus and involving everyone in the mess." Matsuri reminded her.
"THAT WAS A MISCALCULATION!"
"A miscalculation indeed!" Yukina snaps her fan shut. "I fear that if we leave more of the problem solving to YOU, it would only lead to disaster. And besides, this job is family related. We can't have a child such as you tearing it right open between them."
Etsuko growled at the ojou ninja. "You make it sound like I'm gonna ruin their marriage."
"Exactly." Yukina ignores the small girl as she approaches the chairman with a firm glare. "Chairman! Worry not! For I, Yukina Shido, shall answer your pleas and make sure that both you and your wife shall carry no more bad blood between you both!"
Usano blinks at the rich girl's sudden attitude, willing to take action and solve his problem. Matsuri and the others were just as shocked as well, seeing this side of her. Etsuko however, was rather jealous of the girl.
"Show off."
"Hmm…very well then…I shall take your offer…but what will we…do?"
Yukina offered a smirk. "Well, you said so yourself, correct? That you run away from her because you're too tense."
"Hmm…you are right about that. I get too…tense."
"Ohoho. Lucky for you, I have the perfect remedy for that."
The crowd suddenly got confused by what she meant. Before any of them could ask, Yukina wasted no time as she dug into her pockets and brought out a bottle that had some strange liquid inside of it.
"Tada! Behold, my family homemade medicine is made specifically to relax the muscles and correct blood flow!"
"You had that with you this whole time?" Tsubaki asked.
"There's a medicine that works like that?" Megumi asked.
Yukina smugly grew as she set her hands on her hips. "This medicine works wonders on the bone. My mother and father use it all the time before bed, but for some baffling reasons, they don't dare share this secret with me. I mean, all it does is just relaxes the muscles and all, so why go far to hide it."
Her wording did not exactly sit well with the others.
"Um…Yukina…do you think maybe there's a reason why they don't want you to use it?" Matsuri asked.
"Possibly because it is not something for someone my age to use. So it may be an adult thing." Yukina deduced.
"I…I really don't think that's the reason." Matsuri fear only grew.
"I'm with Matsuri on this, you sure?" Megumi said with her fear growing equally as Matsuri.
Yukina only waved off their fear. "Oh both of you worry too much, relax. I know exactly what I'm doing. Now then, Chairman." She hands the bottle towards the Chairman to which he eyed suspiciously. "If you drink this, I'm positive that you will be more relaxed when you meet her in-person."
Usano blinks as he grabs the bottle and looks at it. "A remedy that can relax the muscles and blood…I must say…this I certainly was not expecting such a medicine from you, Yukina. Thank…you!"
Yukina beamed a smug behind her fan. "It was no problem. A much simpler method than whatever the child was going to present."
"That bitch. She's just taunting me."
Usano sighs as he looks at the medicine in his hand. "If I am going to face her…hopefully this works. So I can finally face her and hopefully bring back peace to my family once…MORE!"
Usano pops open the bottle and gulps the whole bottle down, much to Yukina's surprise.
"U-Uh? I don't think it's necessary for you to drink the whole bottle."
Just as Usano was about to finish the entire bottle, his eyes shot wide open. He drops the bottle on the ground, his body goes stiff. His head was left hanging. The others grew concerned about his condition.
"Um…Chairman?" Matsuri asked as he leaned in towards him.
"Hey, Yukina? Are you sure that remedy is safe?"
"Of course it is! A-At least it's supposed to be." Yukina said with an unsure response that only made them question more.
Megumi walks up to the bottle and looks at the label. Narrowing her eyes at it, she read through the ingredients. Only for her to widen her eyes in confusion and later morphed into shock. "Yukina…you say this medicine is a remedy to calm nerves?"
"Of course."
"...this isn't THAT type of remedy."
They all look at Megumi, unaware of the rising Usano who was slowly lifting his head with an ominous stare.
"Wait. It's not." Etsuko asks as she jumps on Megumi's shoulders, almost causing her to fall down.
"No it's not."
"Are you saying I made a mistake!" Yukina pointed her fan at the red-head.
"You did…this isn't a medicine to calm the nerves. It's a medicine…well not more of a medicine, but a special charge that awakens one sexual desire."
"...huh?" Yukina was now dumbfounded.
"Hold on!" Tsubaki snatches the bottle from her hand and reads the ingredients! Her eyes scanned through until she developed a twitch under brow. "YOU DUMBASS! THIS IS APHRODISIAC!"
"HUUUUH!?"
*Growl.*
They all stopped and turned to see Usano who was fully standing with his hand clenched into a fist.
"Asuka…"
"C-Chairman…" Matsuri said, sensing deja vu at the moment.
"I want…I want to…"
"THIS IS NOT GOOD! WE BETTER RESTRAIN HIM NOW!" Tsubaki yelled.
Usano grabs his own uniform, with all his might. He tore it right open. Leaving only his bare tone chest, stomach and muscular legs. He was only wearing black speedo brief on him.
*TEAR!*
"I WANT TO HAVE ROUGH, SWEATY SEX WITH ASUKAAAAAAA!"
"TOO LATE!" All of them yelled at once in a sense of panic.
-Council Office-
"Here you go." Mitsuko said as she pushed the tea cup towards Asuka.
"Thank you."
Asuka reaches out for the cup as she drinks from it. Sitting in the room were the council members and three members of the guard patrol unit. Kate and Mari were sitting together on one part of the couch. With Meiko and Risa on the other. Hana and Mitsuko on the other.
A soft smile graced her lips. "My, this is rather good. Did you make this?"
Mitsuko waved her hands in defense. "N-Not me ma'am. It was Hana who helped out."
"I mean, I only showed her the ropes. I'm not that much of an expert when it comes to herb tea or anything." Hana said.
Asuka chuckled a little. "Nonsense, you're selling yourself short. You're pretty skilled when it comes to blending tea, Hana."
Hana had a faint blush on her cheeks. "H-Hey, come on, you're making me blush."
Asuka sets the cup down as she looks over at Meiko. "And Meiko, it's great to see you as well. I see you matured into a fine young lady."
Meiko blushed a little. "T-Thank you, madame."
Asuka then took the time to look at the new people she had not met, that being Kate, Risa and Mitsuko. "So…you three form the student council, correct?"
Kate flinched a little. "Ahem. Yes. E-Even though we were the original council. B-But we did find some common ground afterward so we're good friends now. Mari and the others are acting as the guard patrol unit for the school."
"I see. Well, at least there isn't any feud going on between you all and knowing my daughters are okay, I guess I can leave it be for now."
"For now!?" Kate and her friends panicked.
"Anyways," Asuka set the cup down on the table as she looked at her daughter. "My dear daughter, what has been going on amongst Hachimitsu. There have been a few things I've been curious about and also worried about at the same time during my absence."
Mari narrowed her eyes. "Concerns?"
"Yes. More particularly when I heard when that foolish man was going to make the school co-ed. Accepting male students I should say," She said with a hint of disgust. "The thought of boys attending an all-girls school had me worried about both you and Chiyo's safety. Not only you two, but the whole female students safety."
Mari closed her eyes for a moment before speaking. "I understand your concerns…well I can say that during the change, the school has had its…ups and downs."
Asuka looks at her daughter. "So there already was trouble then?"
The girls within the room wore annoyed looks, more so with Mari and her friends considering they've been dealing with the six boys during their term.
"The five boys we caught were attempting to peep in the first year's bathhouse." She noted the venomous look on her mother's face with a clenched fist. "However, we did catch them before they could succeed…well, one of them was already within the bath house along with Chiyo."
"What?"
Mari raised her hand before Asuka could lash out. "It's alright, she wasn't harmed in any way."
Asuka lets out an air of relief, relaxing her muscles. "Continue."
"The boys stayed in prison for a good week or so, to reflect on their behavior," She stopped as she thought for a moment. Looking at her mother as she waited for details, she considered her words for a moment before continuing. "Once again, while they HAVE caused some unrest here and there…they did reflect on their actions and were released."
Asuka narrowed her eyes for a moment at her daughter. "I noticed you skimmed over some details…did something happen?"
Hana cleared her throat. "I-I think it's best if you don't know."
"I agree." Meiko quickly raised her hand.
"Same here. Trust me." Kate said, hoping she would drop it.
Asuka noted how quickly they were to come up with the same answer. She pondered for a moment before looking at her daughter. "Very well then…so basically the boys behaved themselves."
"For the most part, yes," Mari said with a sigh. "But they had better believe it or not."
"I see…well, if that's the case, I shall take your words for it…however, there's one thing I still wish to know about."
"And that is?"
"You said you and the girls arrested five…last I heard, the school had a total of six boys at this school." This got their attention, more so with Meiko. "This other boy was part of the mishaps as well."
"No." This caused Asuka to raise a brow at her daughter. "Believe me when I say this, but Matsuri was not part of their peeping operation."
"Matsuri…." She sounded out through her lips. Almost to the point of venomousness that caused the crowd in the room to feel a sense of dread. "So he's still attending this school."
"Mother…before I continue, was your other concern relates to Matsuri and his-"
"-Murder against the council president Yoshimiya Kakeguri of Atsuhiko…" She finished, which caused them to be tense. "Yes…it does."
Mari sighs to herself. Taking a quick glance at Meiko who had her hand clenched upon her lap before looking back at her mother. "Mother…I know you have some very ugly thoughts about Matsuri…but could perhaps please listen to me before assuming him."
Asuka turned her glare towards her daughter. "You better have a good reason."
"Matsuri…" Mari stopped herself, collecting her thoughts on the boy she's been working with throughout the months now and his relationship with the council. "Matsuri…during our first encounter. I thought he was the same as the five boys we detained back during the start of the semester. However, what shocked me was that he was not part of their peeping operation and he respected girls and their privacies. He was also willing to turn himself in for not stopping the boys from peeping on the girls…"
Asuka continued to listen.
"At first, I almost thought that he was just using that as a mask to cover up his true intentions, so I put him as a temporary member of the USC to keep a close eye on him. However, the more he stayed with us…the more I started to realize…he's not like the other boys. Sure, he's still a boy and has thoughts in his head most often, but he keeps it to himself and keeps himself within his own boundaries. I still thought to myself that he was hiding something…turns out he was…but for a good reason."
The room remains quiet. Asuka's attention was fully on her.
"During his year in Atsuhiko, he was friends with Yoshimiya Kakeguri. While I don't know her personally or their backstory too well, I do know that Matsuri truly loved her. To him, Yoshimiya was precious to him in every way…however, there was another female student who constantly bullied him. Hayakki…she pushed Matsuri to lure Yoshimiya into an ambush and threatened him to take a photo of her. Yoshimiya threw her life away for him to live a peaceful life without Hayakki constantly over his shoulders."
"...let me guess…in the end she allowed Matsuri to take photos and he lived a peaceful life…however it came at a terrible cost."
"Yes…in the end, he lived in constant regret for what he did. He transferred here to Hachimitsu in hopes of starting over again…but I…it was my mistake for bringing up his past again. It was due to my actions that led for his past to be revealed…and come back to haunt him again…and nearly cost the total destruction of the school."
The room grew quiet.
"Matsuri…he isn't a bad character. Sure he has faults, but those faults are what pushed him to become a better person. Kind, caring about others, loyal, reliable, cowardly but brave…but the best thing to remember about Matsuri is that…he'll never give up on you."
Mari got quiet. Her friends looked from Mari to Asuka who closed her eyes for a moment. She was in a deep thought for a moment or so. Letting Mari's words sink in, gathering her thoughts.
"Matsuri…" She said with a thought. "He sounds as if he's been in the council for so long, even though it only has been for maybe a month or so…did he truly have made an impression on you."
"...he did."
Asuka looks towards Hana and Meiko. "And you two?"
Hana thought for a moment. "He's alright…wimpy…but he's alright."
"I too have come to respect him." Meiko said to be careful with her words and not blurt out about their relationship. Not sure what type of reaction she will get from the woman.
Asuka looks over to Kate and her friends. "And you three?"
Kate pondered. "He's not exactly manly…but I would say he's manly in his own way. So…yeah…I think he's a good person."
"I think he's nice and caring." Mitsuko said with a smile.
"He's very trustworthy." Risa simply said.
Asuka thought to herself once more. "So everyone here is thinking the same thing…is Matsuri truly that good of a character…even despite his past. I guess…I guess there's nothing to truly worry about him. Weird…from the way they describe him…it almost remind me of-"
*SLAM!*
"SIS!"
Nearly all of them jumped in the air from the sudden interruption. All heads turned towards the door to reveal Chiyo who looked like she was out of breath.
"Chiyo?"
"Sis! We got a pro-oh! Mother!" She quickly got distracted by her mother's appearance.
Before Asuka could react, she was met with a hug by her youngest daughter. "Heh, it's good to see you as well, Chiyo."
"I didn't know you got here, I mean I did. I got a text from Mari that you were here, so I was gonna go tell father-gah! That's right, father!" Chiyo just remembered as she grabbed a hold of her own head before looking at Mari. "I found our father!"
"You did. Good, where is he?"
"...um….." Chiyo stuttered on her words for a moment. "Well…you see…I found him…but…he's acting…weird."
Mari raised a brow. "Weird?"
"Weird how? Isn't he always weird?" Kate said as she crossed her arms.
"Well…how can I say this…"
"ANYONE! HELLO!? HEEEEELP!"
They hear another voice calling out from the hall. They looked towards the door to find Ringo slamming into the entrance of the doorway. Leaning against the doorway, she was completely drenched in sweat.
"I…I thought…just give me a moment…"
"Ringo-sensei?" Meiko asked.
"Why are you completely out of breath, were you running away from someone?"
"Y-You *huff* you could say that…."
Asuka became more curious by the minute before she looked over at Chiyo. "What exactly is going on?"
"It's father! He's running rampant amongst the school while in his underwear!"
"..."
The room grew quiet aside from Ringo's heavy breathing. All of them had the same baffled expressions, looking at Chiyo like she was crazy.
"W-What? I'm telling the truth!"
"It's not that it just that…I…well honestly I can picture father running around the school half naked but-"
"HURRY MEN! WE MUST ASSIST LADY YUKINA!"
Running down the hall, a whole army of men dressed in black were rushing down the hall, creating a stampede of some sort. This left the council and Asuka with baffled expressions. Kate could only run her hand through her face.
"Ugh…this is too stressful as it is…I suppose we have to go and do something about this…" Kate said as she got up from her couch and stretched.
"I already don't want to." Risa complained before she looked over to Hana. "You three handle it."
"You think we're eager to do it." Hana grumbled.
Mari sighs to herself. "Sorry mother, but I believe this conversation has to wait. We will be-"
"No." Asuka said, gaining the crowd within the room's attention. "Since he's my husband…allow me to assist you all on this."
-Hachimitsu Hallway-
"S-SIR! I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS GONNA WORK!"
"IT WILL DAMN IT! HOLD STRONG!"
The figure approaches closer.
"WE'RE GONNA DIE!"
"WE'RE GONNA LI-!"
*CRASH!* *BOOM!*
Just like that, the incoming missile crashed right into them. Their bodies flying in the air, off to the side. Some of them hit the opposite wall, while the other crashed through the windows. Usano pushed through like they were nothing to him. Etsuko screamed more.
"EEEEK! HE JUST PLOWED THROUGH LIKE THEY WERE NOTHING!" Etsuko yelled.
"FUCKING HELL! THIS IS RIDICULOUS!" Tsubaki yelled.
"HOW CAN SOMEONE BE THIS POWERFUL AND YET BE AN ORDINARY HUMAN!" Matsuri yelled with questions in his head.
…
[And there you have it. That's how I ended up in this situation and why so many men are trying to detain me for the wild beast I have become. But how does this all end you maybe wondering…well…that's what I wish to know as…WELL!]
Usano blasts through the army of men in black, effortlessly tossing them into the air, throwing them to the side. He yells at the top of his lungs as he continues running down the hall with Etsuko riding on top of him while screaming. And Matsuri and the others hang onto the rope while being dragged along.
"GOD DAMMIT! WHY IS IT THAT I ALWAYS FIND MYSELF IN THESE SITUATION WITH YOU GUYS!" Tsubaki yells.
"IF ONLY SOMEONE READ THE DAMN LABEL THEN MAYBE THIS WHOLE SITUATION WOULD'VE BEEN AVOIDED!" Said Megumi.
"OH HUSH YOU!" Yukina yelled.
"WE HAVE TO STOP HIM!"
"ASUKAAAAA! LET'S HAVE SEEEEEEX!" Usano screamed as he continued blasting through the hall.
Etsuko tries to repeatedly slap the back of his head. "WILL YOU STOP MOVING! STOP! STAY! HEEL!"
But prove to be futile as Usano dashes down the hall. All of the female students watched from the sideline with a wide range of expressions while some had their phones out and filmed the scene of Usano in his underwear. And Matsuri and the others tried to stop him.
"This is getting too dangerous! How long does this remedy last!?" Matsuri asked the ninja teen.
"Um…shouldn't be too long! But with him running like a mad man inside the school, someone is gonna get hurt!" Yukina said.
"Then we need to take this man outside! ETSUKO!" Tsubaki yelled to the small girl. "TRY TO SEE IF YOU CAN GUIDE HIM OUTSIDE THE SCHOOL BUILDING! MAYBE TOWARDS THE TRACKS!"
Etsuko nodded as she tried to find out how to even control the chairman who was currently just automatically going forward at alarming speed. Her eyes laid on his hair that was blowing against the wind.
"AHA!"
Etsuko grabs the chairman's hair and begins to pull on it.
"GAH! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!? DON'T TRY TO STOP ME ON MY MISSION!"
"SORRY BUT I HAVE TO STOP YOU FROM YOUR HORNY GOAL!" Etsuko said.
As she pulled back, she began to steer him a little to right to left. Usano screams at the top of his lungs as he tries to shake his head to shake Etsuko's grip off of him. But the small first year tightened her grip on the chairman's hair, holding onto her dear life.
"GAAAAH! GET OFF OF ME! NONE OF YOU WILL STOP ME!"
"KYAAAA! HE'S WAY TO STRONG!" Etsuko screamed.
"Keep holding on!"
Etsuko flings her legs in the air as she attaches herself onto his back and grips his hair! With enough grip and stance, she pushes the chairman's head forward and causes him to speed up towards the stair.
"HANG ON GUYS! WE'RE GONNA MAKE A SHARP TURN AND OUT THE WINDOW!"
Etsuko pulls his hair to the right, causing Usano to turn towards the stairs, going upward the staircases. Usano pushes through and crashes out the window! Being on the second floor, they were pretty high in the air, Etsuko held on very tight with Matsuri and the others hanging onto the rope.
Usano landed onto the ground, scaring some passerby who were minding their own business. Behind him, Matsuri and the others landed on the ground face first while hanging onto the rope. However, before they could even get a rest, Usano immediately sped forward with a great yell.
"AAAAASUUUUUUKAAAAAAA!" He yells charging at full speed.
"NYAAA! WE GOT HIM OUTSIDE AND HE'S STILL HORNY AS HELL!" Etsuko screams from riding on the back of him.
Usano speeds through the easy to break net that surrounds the track, ripping a hole through it and going onto the track! Matsuri and the girls were being dragged along, trying to get back on their feet to avoid any more dirt on their clothes. Managing just barely.
"Okay we managed to get him outside! But what now!?" Matsuri asked.
"Now we…"
Tsubaki uses her free hand to reach inside Yukina's pocket much to the ninja girl's shock. "Hey! Don't go digging through someone else's pockets without their consents!"
Tsubaki brings out a kunai knife, spinning it around with her finger, she grasps the weapon in her hand and stabs it to the ground.
"STOP HIM IN HIS TRACKS!"
Tsubaki plants her foot and the kunai on the dirt, dragging both of them through the ground, creating a small trench, for the moment, it was working as Usano was beginning to slow down somewhat. But he kept pushing.
"It's working!" Matsuri said.
"Just barely! We need more helping hands!" Yukina said.
"WE ARE COMING TO ASSIST YOU LADY YUKINA!"
From behind, the men in black all rushed in to aid them! They all grabbed onto the rope while some of them grabbed onto each other's waists. With Matsuri, the girls and Yukina's men, they all used their strengths to stop Usano in his tracks. Even pulling him back a little.
Usano gritted his teeth as he growled. Trying his uttermost best to win against this game of tug-of-war.
"I…WILL…NOT….BEEEE!"
"HE'S STILL TRYING TO PULL HIMSELF FREE! KEEP REELING HIM IN!" Etsuko yelled.
"COME ON! PULL HARDER!" Matsuri yelled.
"WHY THE HELL IS BASTARD SO FUCKING STRONG!"
"COME ON MEN! PULL! PULL FOR LADY YUKINA AND HER FRIENDS SAKE!"
They all gave out a yell as they tried to reel him in. But Usano's strengths were proving to be difficult for them to handle.
"DON'T TRY…TO STOP…MEEEEEE!"
Then, in an instance! Usano bends to his knees and springs off his foot. Leaping into the air while flawlessly slipping out of the ropes. Due to the sudden jolt in his action, Etsuko's body flings off his body, leaving her stunned from the sudden movement. Usano flew in the air with only the circle shape of the rope that he was trapped in, floating in the air.
With Matsuri and the others still pulling they were flung backward and fell on the ground. Left with flabbergasted expressions, the group could only look at what just happened, taking a moment to process.
"HE SLIPPED OUT!?" Matsuri yelled.
"THAT'S COMPLETE TOTAL BS RIGHT THERE!" Tsubaki yelled in frustration.
Usano set his eyes forward as he dashed forward! Kicking up dust in the process all while screaming at full speed.
"Gah! This is bad! How are we gonna stop him now!?" Etsuko yelled as she grabbed her own head.
Just as all seemed futile, up ahead of Usano, was a female figure that stood tall in front of the partly naked chairman. Usano noticed the figure, his eyes widened, his speed increased with adrenaline rush. He pushes forward.
"ASUUUUUKAAAAAA!"
"Wait! Who's…is that…" Matsuri asked.
"ASUUUKAAA! LET'S HAVE ROUGH, SWEATY, SEX! NOOOOOOOOW!" Usano charges full speed ahead.
"AH CRAP! SHE'S IN TROUBLE!" Tsubaki yelled as she tried to get up. "We better-"
"No need."
They all turned to see Mari walking over to them with a tired groan. Walking behind her were her friends and the other student council members.
"Mari?"
The crow mistress didn't say anything as she turned to face the scene. "Our mother can handle the rest from here…"
Unsure what she meant, the crew watched the scene unfold before them. Usano is about to close the gap between him and Asuka, with the mother just standing there with her bangs covering her eyes. Her hands close to her sides with them enclosing into a fist.
"ASUK-!"
*WHAM!*
It was in an instance! No one couldn't see it coming as he was suddenly smacked against his cheeks on the face. His neck bent the other way. His cheeks being contacted against the palm of her hand. In a flash, his body stopped him in his tracks. Causing him to not move at all. Only able to breathe out a few croaks here and there.
Leaving hanging for a few seconds before he fell to the ground unconscious. Matsuri and the others were left stunned for a moment, witnessing what they had just seen.
"Holy crap…"
Asuka gives out a sigh of relief as she looks down at the man who was only in his speedo. Earning a groan from the mother.
"Usano…you're still such an old fool…"
"...U…..s….."
"..."
"W….up…."
"..."
"Usa…wa…up."
"...hmm…"
"Usano…wake up!"
"AH!"
Usano wakes up with a shock! He raises his torso up from the ground, looking at his surroundings, he looks around to find himself in a different area.
"W-Where…am…I!?" He asked himself. "If I recall…I-I was in Etsuko's room, Yukina gave me some remedy to help me with calming my nerves…then…everything went-"
"Blank I presume."
He jumps a little when he hears a familiar voice. He turns around and finds Asuka sitting down with her back against the tree. Giving Usano a glare.
"A-Asuka!?"
"Hello again…dear husband." Asuka said with a hint of venom in her tone. Causing Usano to shiver a little. "Since you have come to your senses, perhaps you can finally speak with me…why were you running like a madman in your underwear while screaming 'rough, sweaty sex' to me."
Usano paled, he nearly felt his heart stop. He felt her gaze on him, but knew hiding away from her was not gonna be an option anymore. He ran his hand through his hair and looked at the woman.
"Asuka…I…I don't know what else to say to justify my actions…"
"How about telling me why you were acting like a madman first? From what I heard from that Yukina girl, she told me that you were hoping to find some way to calm yourself. Only for you to end up going crazy, yelling at the top of your lungs, while running around while only in your speedo…is that true?"
Usano now recalled everything. He sighs to himself. "Yes…and…I'm…sorry."
Asuka sighs as she rests her head on the tree. "Honestly, I came to visit the school because I was worried about you and our daughters. After hearing news about the sleeping wolves taking over the school. Do you have any idea how worried I was?"
"...you were in the right mindset…as I was…well." He said. "I almost thought I would've lost everything when the sleeping wolves invaded…and I feared not just losing my daughters…my school…my friends…I also feared losing…you."
"Me?"
Usano looks straight at her with a serious look. "Asuka…I know you don't believe me when I say this…I don't blame you for it. However…I mean it when I do say this. I was worried if the sleeping wolves DID successfully eliminate the school, they would take over all of Japan…and I feared they would've found…you."
Asuka didn't say much but did listen to him with a softened glare.
"I couldn't bear the thought of losing my family. You, Mari and Chiyo…are important to me. I know you won't believe me…but please consider my words that I am currently undergoing a change…man."
"...a changed man? You?"
Usano pondered for a moment before getting off the ground and extended his hand towards Asuka. "Follow me…there is something I wish to show…you!"
Asuka raised a brow at him, wanting to ask him a question but chose not to from the way he's looking at her.
The two parents head over to the prison block, the trees and bushes still shrouding the building. While the fence that the boys had made still surrounds it.
Asuka looks at the building with a raised brow. "What's this?"
"It's a prison." He said, earning a shock from the mother. "Twenty years ago, I built this prison to imprison…me!"
"You? Why?"
Usano didn't answer straight away as he walked up to the front gate, opening the doors, he looked over his shoulders. "Follow…me!"
Asuka follows him inside the prison. She looked around herself, as she expected, inside wasn't much of a pleasant warm welcome either. Cold, dark and somewhat smelly, like a group of boys has been inside for a good while now.
Usano reaches towards a cell as he opens it, walking inside he approaches the wall towards the right. His eyes narrowed, giving it a hard glance before his hand traced over carved words onto the wall.
"Here."
Asuka lower to her knees as she looks at the writing.
"'Jailed men get no…booty'?"
"You ask me why I built this prison? Why did I build it to imprison me? Well…it was to imprison me…because twenty years ago…I committed a crime…the very crime that led you to leave my…side."
Asuka's eyes widened.
"This prison was to imprison me, so I can reflect on my past actions as both a person and a father. It was out of place for me to commit such a horrible act. You leaving my side…I cannot find any ways of justifying my actions back then even today I still can't nor will I try. I thought that imprisoning myself would give me some understanding of how to be a better individual. For your sake…for my daughter's sake as well. Hence why I carved those words on the…wall."
"...I believe Mari did mention something similar." Asuka said. "She says that you have been diving yourself into a strange obsession with butts. I assume the prison didn't work?"
"...not entirely. I would say it only cured half of me. I won't lie, I do get myself involved in such acts that Mari has caught me several times with…however…I would say the other half, I have required more of a thought."
"Oh…is that so?"
Usano nodded. "Though, if I were to be honest, I think most of that of my change of a person came from watching…Matsuri."
"Ah yes, Mari has spoken about him in her letters. And I have briefly encountered the boy while he and his friends were trying to restrain you…I must admit, I wasn't expecting him to be well-mannered for the most part. Of course, he is still a boy, so chances of him having thoughts is not too far off…but from when I spoke to him…I can see why Mari and the others think so highly of him."
Usano hums to himself. "Yes, Matsuri is a brave and well-mannered boy. He threw his second chance of life away for the sake of his friends and loved ones at this school. It was that moment that truly moved…me!"
Asuka blinks for a moment. "Loved ones…does he have someone special here?"
Usano shook his head. "But my point still stands…Asuka…I know you won't believe me when I say this…but I please…give me another chance, I wish to show you how much I've truly changed. Not just as a person…but as father…and as a…husband!"
Asuka didn't say anything as she gave him a blank look, her eyes looking at his current attire. He failed to realize he was still just in his speedo brief. He looks at himself before looking at his wife who had her hands on her hips with a disapproving glare.
"Ahem. You know what I…mean."
Asuka sighs to herself as she looks back at the carved out words on the wall. Taking a good look at it, she couldn't help but chuckle. "Honestly, you're such an old fool…but…I'm glad both you and our daughters are in good health and safe."
Usano's eyes widened for a moment, looking at his wife.
"I still haven't fully forgiven you…but…I can see you have at least some common sense…even if it IS little." Asuka smiled as she looked at her husband. "Thank you for sharing your thoughts, Usano."
Usano's lips curled into a small smile. "It's been long since I heard you called me by my real name…oh Asu-"
Before he could come in and hug his wife, he was suddenly stopped in his tracks with her hand shoved into his face. Baffled, he looks at his wife with her once more disapproving look.
"I'm not gonna hug you unless you put on some clothes."
Usano just remembered his attire. "Ah."
Outside of the prison, Asuka and Usano walk outside, only to be greeted by two familiar figures, at least to them.
"Mother!" Chiyo said as she rushed up towards Asuka and wrapped her arms around her waist, greeting her with a hug.
Asuka smiled softly and hugged her back. "Hello again, Chiyo…and you too Mari."
Mari while remaining calm she bowed respectfully before looking at her father who was STILL in his speedo brief. With a disgusted look on her face, she rolls her eyes before snapping her fingers. In an instance, Suda appeared to the side of Usano, shocking him for a moment before looking at the butler's hand. It was his usual clothing.
Usano bowed to the butler before taking his clothes and began to put them on.
Mari looks at her mother. "I assume you two had a talk between each other."
"We did…"
Both Mari and Chiyo briefly exchanged glances before looking at Asuka.
"A-And…are you two gonna be together again?" Chiyo asked with a hopeful expression.
Asuka took a moment of thought before a smile graced her lips. "Can't say for sure to be honest." She said before looking at the once hopeful look on Chiyo deflated and the look on Mari was equal to her sisters. "But…"
This caught their attention.
Asuka rests her hands on both of their shoulders. "That could change for the better in the near future. We will see."
Even though it wasn't the answer they were looking for, it was enough of an answer as they both smiled. Chiyo presented a bright smile, while Mari maintained her cool smile. Both looked at their mother.
"That's good enough." Mari said.
"Ahem. Asuka." The mother looked over at Usano who was now fully dressed. "Um…I was wondering…the school is soon going to be going on the summer seaside trip…I was wondering…if you're not busy that is…if you would like to…come."
"Summer seaside trip?"
"Yeah!" Chiyo elated with sparkles in her eyes. "On the trip, we do all sorts of fun stuff! Wanna come along!"
Asuka thought for a moment. "Not like I have anything special going on…sure."
This shocked the whole family for a moment. Both Mari and Chiyo widened their eyes, surprised she actually agreed to it. Meanwhile, Usano was completely stunned for a moment, looking at the wife with wide eyes.
"Y-You serious!? You're truly…serious!?"
"Of course I am." Asuka said with a smile. She looks over at the man. "It would be perfect for some family bonding…together with all of us and the school as well. Not only that…I wish to know a little more about what I missed while I was gone."
Usano blinked for a moment, still stunned from the answer, but nonetheless, shook his head and offered a small smile. "Then it will be a pleasure to have you as our guest…Asuka."
Asuka offered a small smile at the man, returning the gesture. Mari and Chiyo exchanged looks at each other with smiles. Knowing full well that the family is slowly getting back together again. Slowly, but worth it.
"By the way," Usano asked. "What did happen to Matsuri and the others while I was knocked…out?"
Mari then wore an annoyed expression before crossing her arms under her chest. "Well, reviewing the trouble and how it started…I put Yukina in punishment."
"Punishment? What type of punish…ment?"
-Hachimitsu- [Pool Area]
Somewhere on the campus, in the pool area. Meiko, Hana, Risa, Mitsuko, along with Matsuri and the others were watching Yukina cleaning up inside the pool. Scrubbing off the graffities that were drawn inside the pool.
Currently, she is not happy with the result. "Ugh, this is so humiliating."
"Oi! You're the one who caused the trouble in the first place! So get used to it! And start scrubbing some more will ya! The more you complain, the more time you're wasting!" Hana said.
Yukina groans before posing in a sort of distress pose. "To have someone with high status such as me clean up the pool area is truly humiliating! It's just…it reminds me too much of my punishment from my mother!"
"Seriously…" Tsubaki groaned before she yawned.
"Still though, to think my plan to help the chairman didn't go well…have I truly lost my edge…or have I allowed the child to influence such thoughts in my head? Oh god please, that's the last thing I want in my life." Yukina whined.
"DON'T TALK ABOUT ME LIKE I'M SOME SORT OF DISEASE YOU BITCH!"
"NOOO! I CAN'T EVEN THINK ABOUT SUCH THINGS!" Yukina screamed as she dropped the broom as her hand pushed against her cheeks. "I think I'm gonna faint…oh dear."
Yukina slowly falls to the ground, only to be caught by one of her men, soon all of her men rally around her.
"LADY YUKINA! STAY STRONG DAMN IT! LADY YUKINAAAAAA! NOOOOOOOO!" He screams into the sky.
"WILL YOU ASSHOLES GET BACK TO WORK ALREADY!" Risa and Hana yelled.
[Omake: Boys Guide to Attracting Girls]
*Pwee!*
Nagita blows into the whistle, gathering all of the students who were dressed in dark-blue sukumizu swimsuits. Including the teacher who looks at the students with a clipboard in her hand.
"Alright students listen up. Today we are going to be doing some swimming sessions. I'm gonna be testing you to see how well you can swim, including stamina, swimming style, so on and so forth. However, we're just going to be doing something simple, I want to see how well any of you can swim."
As the teacher was speaking, in the back, the five boys were discussing something between each other. With Gakuto being the spokesman for the group.
"Gentleman, today is the day that we boys show our true manly self to the mistresses!" Gakuto said.
The boys nodded in agreement. All with serious expressions on their faces.
Gakuto pushed his glasses up with a smirk. "And swimming class is the best way to show the girls their strengths and abilities."
"You sure this will work though?" Kiyoshi asked.
"Of course. I have researched and found out that women find men attractive who are good at swimming and other activities as well. Plus," Gakuto's hand smacked his own chest. "Showing off our muscles is a bonus point!"
"Well said, Gakuto!" Shingo said as he posed while combing his hair back. "The ladies can't resist this!"
"We will *cough* be popular amongst this school!" Joe said.
"Okay then," Nagita spoke up. "Today's task is time you guys and see how fast you are. If you can't reach the other end in under 20 seconds, then you will be put over on the bench. Towards the students who cannot swim and will receive swimming lessons from me. Now then, who wishes to volunteer."
"Yo Teach!"
All of the students look over their shoulders to find Shingo coming up to them with a smirk. Pushing his hair back, he posed by flexing his muscles.
"I'll take your test." He said with a grin.
Nagita was a bit confused by his gesture and pose, she shrugs it off and looks at the boy. "Very well then, get on the diving board.
Shingo gives the boys a thumbs up. "I'm going in!"
"Good luck, Shingo!" They all said.
Shingo walked up to the diving board, he looks forward with a confident smile. Bending over as his hand touched his feet, he was prepared.
"Alright Shingo. Show these girls what a man you are…."
"Ready…."
"Show them what you got…."
"And…."
"I got this…."
*Pwee!*
Shingo jumped off the diving board and landed right into the water.
*Splash!*
Everyone's reactions were unreadable as they watched him swim to the other side. Or at least trying to swim to the other side.
Shingo was having the most terrible luck. He screamed and flailed his hand around, trying to swim properly or at least stay afloat. But his body kept on trying to sink more towards the bottom. Spitting and coughing and gagging out water and began to gurgle under water before he sank underneath.
…
Until he remerges to the surface. He wheezed, hacked and coughed out violently. Trying to catch his breath before attempting to swim once more. No matter how hard he tries to swim. Finally reaching the other end while still coughing out some water.
And as if nothing had happened during the past minutes, he turns his head around, looking at everyone with a serious expression. "So…how do you like my swimming?"
"Shingo, please go over to the bench."
"A TOTAL FAILURE!?"
"NO SHIT A TOTAL FAILURE!" The boys thought at the same time.
….
And that's a wrap. The untold chapter of the Kurihara family has been told and the rift between Asuka and Usano is ever so slowly being rebuilt. Even if it is slow, it's worth it in the end. The Golden Days arc is nearing the closing curtains and the story as a whole is nearing the end….
Sorry for the long wait, finally here with a new chapter. I wasn't intending this chapter to take this long, but there were some bits I felt some ideas needed to be implemented in there and also a requested scene to be implemented in the chapter. So for this chapter, we have the introduction of Mari's and Chiyo mother. I don't believe Mari's mom has never been mentioned in the manga or the anime.
Asuka is a completely original character to an extent. I imagine she would look like an older version of Mari, but having much shorter hair and all that. As for personality, for pure trait wise, she is just as cool, calm and somewhat cold as Mari during the beginning of the story and Chiyo when her personality undergoes a change at the end of the manga. However, unlike Mari, Asuka does have a softer and considerate side and will give a moment's thought if given a reason. Looking at her character, I could've easily made an entire story arc dedicated to Mari's and Chiyo family, but with us nearing the end of the story, that won't be happening anytime soon. XD
Regarding what Usano did in the past, again, it's never explained in the manga. All I can do is connect it to why the prison was made in the first place and how it connects to Usano's and Asuka relationship. So I will leave that bit entirely up to you (the readers) imagination. Go ahead and have fun with it.
Not only that, there was a requested bit concerning Asuna (Bitch/Slut-chan) in this chapter that I decided to put in for TheCarlosInferno. I only had Asuna appear, mainly because I felt it was easier having focusing on less characters on screen then having multiple of them. But I hope you enjoyed it.
By the way, regarding the previous chapter lemon scene. I apologize for it being a little underwhelming to you guys. But I should state this, when it comes to writing make out scenes, I can do that when it's soft, but when it comes to being too explicit and detailed, I feel I'm not the strongest when it comes to those writing details. However, I do have good news, my good friend DlyanMason210 is writing a better version for it. I think you'll like it more than my writing. When he's done, I shall update chapter 73 with the bit written in it. I would like to thank TheCarlosInferno for giving me the prompt idea and DlyanMason210 for writing out an improved version of the scene.
Anyways, thank you for reading this chapter. The first new chapter in the New Year. We have about 2 chapters left until we're officially done with the story. I bet some of you are wondering what's next after Hitoyoshi and the Prison School. I do have an idea for my next story, what it is…I ain't talking. XD
As always, leave a review for feedback, stay safe (really, stay safe out there). And I shall see you all in the next chapter.
