This is the first chapter of Passionate Escape, so it will be edited a bit.
Natsuki walked out of the art class at Versailles World Institute.
Versailles World Institute was a boarding school located in the mountains of the Japanese Alps, in the central part of the main island of Honshū, Japan, whose sports subjects were tennis, volleyball, basketball, and running. The extracurricular subjects were karate, theater, crafts, and movies. The institute itself resembled the Palace of Versailles in France.
Natsuki was a tall, thin girl. Her skin was fair, her eyes were blue, and her hair was long and red. She was 16 years old. She was wearing a gray blazer, a brown skirt that reached her thighs, white knee-high socks, and brown shoes. Over her left shoulder was a brown shoulder bag with her books in it.
The interior walls of the building were white, and the floor was brown. The ceiling was white, and there were ceiling lamps on the ceiling. The windows were on the wall on the right side of the hallway, and the gray lockers were in front of the wall on the left side of the hallway.
Like Natsuki, there were other girls walking along the hallway, as Versailles World Institute was an all-girls school.
"Next is a dance in Versailles-dresses, and some girls dress up as boys," Natsuki thought, as she stopped in front of her locker, and took out a student-notebook from her bag, that had her schedule. She was in class 1B.
Natsuki opened her locker door, and took out the bag that contained the dress she was wearing today, and then she bent down, picked up the orange high heels from the locker floor, and then she stood up, and closed her locker door.
(Later)
Natsuki was later standing in the Versailles World Institute's ballroom, and she was now wearing a dress, like some of the other girls.
Natsuki was wearing a light orange dress, the front of which was dark white at the top, and which had 2, orange, and narrow stripes crossing each other in an x shape at the upper body. The sleeves of the dress were slightly puffy-looking at the shoulders, and the sleeves of the dress reached to the elbows, being slightly ruffled at the elbows, and their cuffs were white. Her hair was tied into a small bun at the back of her head, and the ends of her hair hung loose over her upper back, and in front of her shoulders, and in front of the bun was a hair ornament made of pale pink silk flowers, with white beads at the back of the bun. The collar of the dress was orange on the sides, and the collar on the front was dark white, and slightly ruffled. Natsuki had light orange high heels on her feet, and she was holding a white hand fan with orange flower patterns in her right hand.
"This corset is disgustingly tight," Natsuki whispered to Ino, who was standing next to her.
"You're not the only one who thinks that," Ino said.
Ino was a girl around Natsuki's age, with long, blond hair tied in a ponytail. Her skin was fair, and her eyes were light blue. She was tall and thin. She was wearing a white and purple dress.
Suddenly, the doors to the ballroom opened, and a woman walked into the hall, followed by girls dressed as men.
The woman who walked into the room in front of the girls dressed as boys was Shimazaki Aya. Shimazaki Aya was a dance teacher at the Versailles World Institute.
Shimazaki Aya was 48-years old. She was tall, and thin. Her skin was fair, and her eyes were blue. Her hair was long, and blond. She had pink pearl earrings in her ears. She was wearing a blue, and white dress with ruffled sleeves, that reached down to her elbows, a green bow at the front of the neckline, and blue high heels, and her hair was tied in a bun at the back of her head.
"Aya-sensei looks a bit like the Duchess of Polighnac from the Rose of Versailles series," Natsuki mused. This wasn't the first time, when Natsuki had thought about that.
Aya stopped in front of the girls standing in the ballroom, and introduced them to the dance partners. Finally, she stopped in front of Natsuki:
"Princess de Lambadelle, here is your dancing partner, the Count de Valois."
The woman looked at Sakura. Sakura was wearing a long, dark red coat with a white collar, and a gold-edged, red decorative pin. She was wearing black pants, white socks, that reached down to her knees, and black shoes, and Sakura's long, light pink hair was combed into a ponytail. She was Natsuki's age, tall and thin. Sakura's skin was fair, and her eyes were green.
Like the other girls dressed as boys, Sakura bowed to Natsuki, who winced slightly.
Natsuki held out her right hand to Sakura, who took Natsuki's hand with her own, right hand, and kissed the back of Natsuki's right palm.
Natsuki blushed slightly in embarrassment, and saw Sakura blushing too.
"This must be embarrassing for Haruno-san too," Natsuki thought, as Sakura stood up to her full height, and placed her left hand on Natsuki's hip, while Natsuki placed her left hand on Sakura's shoulder.
The woman put the gramophone on to play music while all the girls began to dance the waltz.
(What would Sakura think, say, or feel now?)
"Haruno-san, are you okay?" Natsuki asked, looking at Sakura's still red face with a bit of concern.
"Haruno-san must still be embarrassed, that she had to kiss my hand just now, because her face has been red ever since," Natsuki thought. "It would embarrass me."
The girls continued dancing.
Finally, the microphone was turned off, and the girls walked with their dance partners to the dressing room, and Natsuki sat on one of the benches in the dressing room, and looked at Sakura:
"Haruno-san, could you unzip my dress? It's on my back."
Natsuki felt uncomfortable in the corset, and she wanted it off as quickly as possible. She was sure that it had left some kind of marks on her back, and they would be visible on her back for a long time.
"Okay," Sakura said, and started to unzip.
"Thanks. By the way, Haruno-san...I was thinking of going for a little walk in the forest today. Would you like to come with me for that little walk?"
"Okay," Sakura said.
(Later)
The girls were walking in the forest.
"How would it be like to come home?" Natsuki asked.
"It's certainly comforting, because there are only girls here, and outsiders almost never come. And you know, what they say about girls's schools?" Sakura asked.
"Really. What is that?" Natsuki asked when she saw the old-looking ruins, in the middle of which was some kind of stone altar with puzzle-like patterns.
Natsuki walked closer, curious, and read the words on the puzzle:
"Only for the common good".
Natsuki began to put the puzzle together curiously, and after putting it together, her altar began to glow pink, until it opened, and a 6-sided, brown box with red patterns appeared, and landed in Natsuki's hands. It was about the size of a pig.
"What is this?" Natsuki wondered, and opened the box that appeared in her hands, and took out a small box with a silver-colored bracelet with a single, light blue pearl.
Natsuki took out a book from the, box that looked brand new, with brown-red covers, and a silver-colored bracelet with a pink pearl, which she gave to Sakura.
A white-haired girl dressed in a blue ninja costume appeared from Natsuki's bracelet:
"I am Tsukiko. The world is in danger, and only you can save it. That's why you must become Monsutā musume, who will fight against that darkness with my powers, and Akemi's with the advice you found in that book".
"I am Natsuki, but how do we fight?" Natsuki asked curiously.
"Say Moonrise!" Tsukiko announced.
"Moonrise!" Natsuki shouted after putting the bracelet on her right hand, and it began to glow white.
A white-silver leotard appeared over Natsuki, with black gloves and black boots, and a white-silver mask appeared in front of her face.
"It feels, like I can do anything now," Natsuki said, quickly jumping onto the roof of the ruins, and then back to the ground:
"Impressive!"
"Unbelievable!" Sakura shouted in surprise.
As Natsuki looked at Versailles World, she saw dark clouds gathering in the sky.
"It's probably time to go back to our rooms, because it looks like it's going to rain soon" Natsuki said, changing into her civilian form, taking the items she had just found, and heading towards Versailles World with the others.
"I think I'm being threatened," A man said while standing in the Versailles World principal's office.
The floor of the room was gray, and on it was a brown carpet with red patterns. The walls were covered with bookshelves except for the back wall, but they were crimson, and the ceiling was brown, and on the ceiling was a ceiling lamp with a light switch to the left of the brown door on the front wall.
The man's desk was in front of the back wall of the room, and on the back wall was a window with white venetian blinds in front of it.
The man's desk was brown, and it had a computer and writing instruments. There were sliding doors in front of the desk, and on top of the desk was a computer and a landline phone. Behind the desk was a brown black office chair, and in front of the desk were 2 brown chairs.
The man was tall, and athletic. His skin was slightly pale, his eyes were red, and his hair was blue-black, and slightly long, and it was tied in a ponytail. He was wearing a maroon jacket, a white collared shirt, a black belt, black pants, and black shoes. He had a crimson tie around his neck. On his right index finger was a gold ring with crimson pearls. It was difficult to determine the man's age, but some had guessed he was 60. Then the ring in question shimmered slightly.
"I don't let anyone get in the way of my plans," The man said, as red shimmering patterns appeared on the wall of the room.
"I'm definitely not going to let anyone ruin my plans," The man decided. He had worked hard to implement his plan, and he wasn't going to let anyone ruin his plans.
The man had recently felt 2, strong energy sources coming from the forest, which the man now believed were a threat to his plans, which scared the man a little.
"If someone is really threatening me, then I think I should investigate the matter properly," The man decided.
