Cloud and Asuna were walking silently towards the eting point, only to be surprised to see a boy who looked like he was about to fall unconscious from fatigue walking in their direction.
". . ." - Cloud frowned as he sensed sothing strange coming from the boy but said nothing to call out to him.
"Cloud-sama?" - Asuna asked in surprise.
"It's nothing, we'd better continue, we still have to et the others" - Cloud said as he shook his head, only to feel how there was sothing strange with the situation, especially since the boy who passed by him seed to be looking down at the ground at all tis, sothing that was not only strange, but also suspicious.
"Do you want to look into it, Cloud-sama?" - Asuna asked as she gave the boy who had passed by her a glance.
"No... at least not for now" - Cloud replied as he shook his head - "Let's continue."
"Hai!" - Asuna exclaid as the two continued towards their target, not noticing as the boy turned around when he noticed that they were far away.
"That was dangerous..." - muttered the boy with glasses and ssy hair - "That girl is lethal to .... if I rember correctly, she's Asuna, one of the most beautiful girls in Nangokuren.... Good thing I didn't see her directly or I might have..."
The boy quickly shook his head to put those thoughts aside, after all, he didn't want sothing like what happened a few days ago to happen again, mostly because he had no control over his situation.
"I better go back to the boys' rooms to prevent trouble" - the boy sighed as he looked out the window, only to quickly avert his gaze because a group of girls were exercising outside wearing only a white t-shirt and bloors - "Shit! I almost screwed up!"
* * * * *
". . ." - Rintarō didn't know what to say right now. He was calmly walking around Nangokuren now that he could do so without fear of suffering so kind of heart attack, only to feel how Rurina and Rumina were constantly following him to the point that it was getting a bit annoying, though he hadn't said anything, mostly because he didn't want to make the girls feel bad.
"Do you think he found us out?" - Rumina asked as she looked at her sister.
"Possibly... after all, Rintarō-sama is cool" - answered Rurina with a slight blush.
"I feel like your love for Rintarō-san is starting to turn into an obsession, Rurina" - sighed her sister while shaking her head - "Anyway, we'd better talk directly or he might start to think badly of us."
"Uh... I think you're right" - nodded Rurina.
"Shall we?" - asked Rumina as the other twin nodded, only to notice how Rintarō stood in front of them with an expressionless look.
"Kya!" - exclaid the two sisters as they blushed as they realized that they had not only discovered their presences, but also their location.
"Well? Anything I need to know?" - Rintarō asked as he looked at the twins.
"Etto..." - Rurina could only throw a helpful look at her sister, after all, she still wasn't ready to confess in front of the boy she liked.
"What my sister ans, is that she wanted to know if you wanted to co with us on a date on Saturday afternoon" - Rumina said while her sister was blushing like hell - "Sis!"
"A date? With you both?" - Rintarō asked with surprise. He never thought that the sisters wanted to ask him on a date, let alone the two of them together - ". . ."
"Is that a no?" - Rurina asked with a sad look. If her sister had already spoken, it was best to continue to the end.
"N-No... it's not that... it's just that I never thought it was sothing like that..." - Rintarō said while scratching his cheek - "I thought you both were coming after with intentions of revenge for what happened when we were enemies..."
"Oh, don't worry about that, we understand that it wasn't your intention" - smiled Rurina ruefully.
"Although it did hurt" - added Rumina, only to see how her twin sister looked at her with annoyance - "But nothing that a little break won't solve?"
"I'm sorry for hitting that hard" - the boy said with embarrassnt. It was strange that the girls he hit decided to ask him for a date.
"As I said, you don't have to worry, at that ti we were enemies" - Rurina answered while shaking her head - "But.... do you accept?"
"I-I guess... it's the least I can do for you guys to make it up to you" - nodded Rintarō.
"Ok! We'll et at the entrance at 11 am!" - Rurina exclaid, only to blush as she saw that she had overreacted - "S-Sorry..."
"D-Don't worry..." - Rintarō muttered as he shook his head in embarrassnt.
"Hmm... I feel like I'm being left out" - Rumina said as she watched the two blush again. She quickly grabbed her sister's hand and the two of them ran off, not before saying goodbye to the boy.
"I still can't believe sothing like that happened..." - Rintarō muttered as he shook his head. It was strange for a girl to ask him out on a date, much less two.
"Interesting..." - gu muttered as she adjusted her glasses and narrowed her gaze - "Maybe we can use this to get closer to the target."
gu quickly shook her head to put that idea aside as it would only make them look at less if they decided to sacrifice themselves like that.
"We are not Asuna..." - gu muttered disdainfully as she recalled the forr 'pet' of the group, only to rember how the girl they had looked down upon was now much stronger than them and how she was slowly getting even stronger - "I better get on with my mission before my anger grows out of control."
* * * * *
"I see you're spending a lot of ti with your boyfriend, Kyōka" - Honori said while noticing how all the girls were giving their leader a look.
"He's not my boyfriend, at least not for now" - Kyōka said as she shrugged - "But it won't be long until I have him in the palm of my hand, Kakaka~!"
"I still don't understand why you're so interested in him, Kyōka-sama" - said Kako with disdain - "I know Cloud Strife is strong but other than that I find no reason why you decided to fight for him."
"Because he is interesting" - answered Kyōka calmly - "When I am by his side, I feel that I can break all my limits, that I can grow by his side, that I can continue on the path that I already chose for myself."
"Wow, you really got hit hard by love, Kyōka" - said Chiyoko while letting out a laugh - "I guess as your friends, we'll have to support your decision... I just hope that guy doesn't do anything stupid against you or I'm not going to stop until his balls are on a silver platter ready for him to eat them."
"C-Cloud-san doesn't look so bad..." - Misa muttered with her face red with embarrassnt.
"Weren't you afraid of him?" - Kako asked in surprise.
"W-Well... if Kyōka-sama says he's the right one, then he's not so bad..." - muttered the girl who looked to be 13 years old in a voice that was getting lower and lower.
". . ." - the girls were silent when they heard her faint words but nodded. They knew that Kyōka was the one with the best instincts among them all, so it was obvious that she knew what she was doing.
"Anyway, we'd better go to the eting" - Kyōka said as the girls nodded.
* * * * *
"I guess we're the first ones..." - Asuna said when she saw that there was no one in the room they had assigned as a eting point.
"I wouldn't say that..." - Cloud replied as he watched the door and noticed how Rhino appeared from it.
"So impressive senses... Cloud Strife" - said the second year dragon - "I had gone to get so water because I had been waiting for a while.
"Ransuiryū Rino" - muttered Asuna as she looked at her forr leader. She had to admit that it was still a bit awkward to look the dragon directly in the eyes even though they had fought before.
"Byakko Asuna... I see your Aura is starting to materialize..." - Rhino said while adjusting her glasses - "I have to admit that your skills are far superior to what I originally thought... I guess Cloud Strife was right about my lack of judgnt in certain matters... nothing I can't fix in the future."
Asuna kept silent when she heard Rino's complint, thinking that a few weeks before, she had scread out of excitent upon hearing those words, though not anymore, now she only cared about receiving complints from only one person, her teacher Cloud - "Thank you for your kind words, Ransuiryū-san."
Rino only nodded when she heard the girl's words as she decided to close her eyes to wait for the others to appear.
"Sorry for the delay" - said Ayane, who was accompanied by Keiko and Makoto.
"Don't worry, we just arrived" - Cloud replied as he looked at his 'apprentice' - "What happened to Shizuka-chan and Chifuyu-san?"
"They said they wouldn't co because they had to continue their training... I'm surprised to see how Shizuka-san can continue" - said Keiko while frowning.
"Shizuka-chan is a box of surprises you never know what she will give you" - Cloud replied as a small smile appeared on his face.
