GM Notes:
TheLoneGentleman: Dice is rolled for a Perception check for Sono. Requirement for success is 6.
Roll: 2
Result: 2 + 3 = 5
Effect: Sono finds himself spotted by a patrolling guard just before he entered the hospital, before he’d be forcibly pushed out, he’d need to make his move: to leave or proceed - is his decision to make
BagMan: Dice is rolled for an Alice check for Ine. Requirement for success is 8.
Roll: 4
Result: 4 + 3 = 7
Effect: Ine feels like she is almost able to make a wish come true. Sadly however, nothing happens, much to her dismay.
TheLoneGentleman: Dice is rolled for a Perception check for Sono. Requirement for success is 5.
Roll: 2
Result: 2 + 3 = 5
Effect: Sono could feel exactly when the guard runs into the inside of the hospital.
TheLoneGentleman: Dice is rolled for a Dexterity check for Sono. Requirement for success is 7.
Roll: 4
Result: 4 + 1 = 5
Effect: Despite being able to know the timings, and finding a corridor to which he could flee to. Sono was not fast enough considering his lack of practice in terms of running, and severe lack of stamina. The guard catches up to him.
Cinia Pacifica: Dice is rolled for a Perception check for Amelia. Requirement for success is 5.
Roll: 2
Result: 2 + 2 = 4
Effect: Amelia unintentionally makes a few resounding footsteps, one would think a ghost was walking around.
Cinia Pacifica: Dice is rolled for a Perception check for Hyuuga Aoi. Requirement for success is 5.
Roll:
Result: 2 + 2 = 4
Effect: Hyuuga tried to walk discretely while keeping the sounds of her footsteps low, but she accidentally makes a loud thump due to almost tripping while trying to be too sneaky.
Katsucha: Dice is rolled for a Perception check for Sakura. Requirement for success is 5.
Roll:
Result: 4 + 2 = 6
Effect: Sakura successfully makes very light steps, as such she is completely free from being found out… or so she may think. If the others makes noises, this is borderline pointless.
Cinia Pacifica: Dice is rolled for a Perception check for Maya. Requirement for success is 5.
Roll: 6
Result: 6 + 4 = 10
Effect: Maya is so perfect in her walking, that it almost felt like she wasn’t there, unless she spoke. Bonus: Perfectly soundless steps, she is a master when it comes to stealth for the day.
Gahald_Mills: Dice is rolled for a Perception check for Ing. Requirement for success is 5.
Roll: 2
Result: 2 + 2 = 4
Effect: Ing makes a few thuds due to not being used to walking like this, he simply never had to before, so he wasn’t quite used to this.
TheLoneGentleman: Dice is rolled for a Alice check for Sono. Requirement for success is 5.
Roll: 1
Result: 1 + 3 = 4
Effect: Unfortunately, Sono’s Alice’s range isn’t very long (small), so the shadows reaches their limits before even reaching the doorstep. The guard needs to walk in another meter before he can be caught under Sono’s territory.
BlinkXPoke: Dice is rolled for a Perception check for Shouta. Requirement for success is 7.
Roll: 6
Result: 6 + 4 = 10
Effect: At this point, it’d not be an exaggeration to say that Shouta’s inner sixth sense may have started working, as he looked around, he didn’t feel anyone at the moment, but he felt that people could be coming to this floor very, very soon.
Cinia Pacifica: Dice is rolled for a Dexterity check for Kiriya Aoi. Requirement for success is 6.
Roll: 5
Result: 5 + 2 = 7
Effect: Aoi runs desperately with a mad dash, as if her life depended on it. Perhaps it was because she was truly worried about Ichigo for which she could do this. She’d probably be tired very soon.
Cinia Pacifica: Dice is rolled for a Dexterity check for Shiraishi. Requirement for success is 6.
Roll: 1
Result: 1 + 3 = 4
Effect: Shiraishi was surprisingly slow for an athletically active person. This was because she had been trying to be silent with her steps, it ended up making her legs hurt with how precisely noise-free she tried to be. Shiraishi is the first to slightly fall behind, and find a guard chasing after her.
BlinkXPoke: Dice is rolled for a Dexterity check for Shouta. Requirement for success is 6.
Roll: 2
Result: 2 + 3 = 5

BagMan: Dice is rolled for a Dexterity check for Ine. Requirement for success is 6.
Roll: 6
Result: 6 + 2 = 8

TheLoneGentleman: Dice is rolled for a Perception check for Sono. Requirement for success is 5.
Roll: 3
Result: 3 + 3 = 6
Effect: Sono carefully places his ears on the door, and listens to the noises from the outside, it seemed that current every guards passed by the door. The coast is clear, but if he waits around too around, someone may come in to the room to check.
BlinkXPoke: Dice is rolled for a Alice check for Shouta. Requirement for success is 7.
Roll: 3
Result: 3 + 2 = 5
Effect: Shouta is unable to control the volume of his voice. However, due to the flow or air and at the direction at which he uses his Alice, Aoi and Ine hears the screech, but doesn’t fully go deaf. Shiraishi and Mio however, are unable to hear anything for around a minute.
Cinia Pacifica: Dice is rolled for a Dexterity check for Aoi. Requirement for success is 9.

Cinia Pacifica: Dice is rolled for an Alice check for Shiraishi. Requirement for success is 8
Roll: 5
Result: 5 + 2 = 7
Effect: Shiraishi’s range reaches the car, and she is able to pull it back for a very small moment, but it barely has any effect on her car.
BagMan: Dice is rolled for an Alice check for Ine. Requirement for success is 8.
Roll:
Result: 4 + 3 = 7
Effect: Ine is still unable to use her Alice, despite the fact that she wished for she and her friends to magically teleport to where Ichigo is. She felt like she was a step away from making her Alice work, it’s frustrating to her that her Alice doesn’t work even in times of emergency, when it’s truly needed.

“What about her mask?”
“That’s just so no one would get definite proof about Hoshimiya-san’s activities, it’s not a restraint, albeit restraints in the form of masks do exist.”
“Ah, I see. I was also wondering, why does Ichigo hold her earring on her hand all the while as she fights? It’s a rather strange way of fighting,”
“She probably didn’t wanted to lose it, so she holds it in her grips. Otherwise, when using the Life Drain Alice, and taking in life of others via the ring, apparently her body feels a rushing electric-like surge of power going in, so she clenches her right fist to be prepared for that feeling. Otherwise it’d affected the balance of her stance, apparently. Lastly, I don’t know what the rest of the restraints are for, but I’m assuming they’re for the third Alice.”
“Alright, then here’s the last question: What do you think Ichigo is being made to do?” Aoi asked, narrowing her eyes, she had no clue if Ai would lie, answer honestly, or just ignore saying that she doesn’t have a clue.
“That, I don’t know. All members of the Dangerous Abilities class are made to do dirty work, and some of them receives special roles from the mastermind. Of course, the †˜mastermind’ uses whatever means possible to force others to submit to his will, blackmail is simply one of his many tools,“ Ai said, shrugging at her lack of actual information.
“The… mastermind…?” Shouta’s head was spinning. Is there some kind of higher power in the Academy? What’s going on?
Aoi looked down, unsure of how Ichigo had felt about these things, all this time. “That’s… so mean and cruel.”
“It’s my guess, but from looking at Hoshimiya-san’s restraints… ” Ai theorized. “It seems like she’s made to take lives of important enemies of the †˜mastermind’ in a most subtle and safer way. Of course, I can’t tell you guys who this †˜mastermind’ is.”
”So suspicious…” Ine commented.
“Like an assassin… How could they make a girl like her do that…?” Shouta mumbled as he looked at Ichigo’s peaceful sleeping face.
“Does Ichigo know who that is?” to this, Aoi received a firm nod from Ai. “Ichigo, I wonder what kind of painful feelings lies under that smile of yours, I’ll wait, wait for you, till you decide to share your feelings. I’ll be there if you need someone to talk with,” Aoi sweetly said with a warm smile, after leaning towards the sleeping Ichigo.
“I’m sure that she’ll one day open up to you,” Ai too, with a warm smile, said, looking at Aoi.
“Mn!” Aoi nodded. “I suppose that wraps up our little business, by the way?”
“Indeed it does.”
“Then, well, I wanted to confirm… ”
“Hm?”
“No, but perhaps it may embarrass you, I’ll refrain… ”
“Oh? That makes me curious now!” Ai made a pout that was rather unbecoming of her.
“Then… are you by any chance, a big fan of Ichigo?!”
“Eh? Uh!” Ai seemed flustered from the abrupt question as she looked away. She tried to make something up, but she couldn’t. “Yes, yes I am… Is there something wrong with that?!” Ai exclaimed, her cheeks were red, as if burning.
Shouta lifted his eyebrow at this remark. “So, the president does, too. Hoshimiya-san really is super popular!” Even though Ichigo is famous, both in and outside of the Academy, he didn’t expect many to know much about her as an idol, since there was no way to watch TV on campus.
“No, not at all,” Aoi said, dazed by the cuteness of the student council president.
“W-What’s with that strange reaction?!”
“What about her mask?”
“That’s just so no one would get definite proof about Hoshimiya-san’s activities, it’s not a restraint, albeit restraints in the form of masks do exist.”
“Ah, I see. I was also wondering, why does Ichigo hold her earring on her hand all the while as she fights? It’s a rather strange way of fighting,”

“You did say it takes quite a toll on her, that she’d be affected by it for hours after just one use… I hope she’s okay…”
“I doubt it,” Ai replied. The car abruptly stopped, much to anyone’s thoughts, Ai spoke up. “Speak of the devil.”
The door was opened by the driver who wore black suit - much like the enemies from earlier - he wore shades and appeared to be very professional. “It’s her again… like the last time.”
“Let her in.”
“Yes, ma’am,” curtly replying, the man instantly moved away.
She then found an Ichigo jumping into the car, and slouch over to the seat right beside Ai. “Waah!! I finally made it! This car sure is fast!” Ichigo said, acting like her usual self; she wore a bright and cheerful smile on her face.
“What do you expect? It’s late, and the streets are relatively clear at the moment. Chasing a car on foot is already an impossibility for the ordinary people.”
“But going back to the academy on foot is so boring and tiresome!” Ichigo complained.
“Well… ”
“I-Ichigo?! Are you okay?!! Are you hurt anywhere?” Aoi asked, despite knowing that she was indeed hurt, but she accidentally asked away at the heat of the moment.
“Yeah! You were even shot! Are you okay?!”
“Oh, you guys are here!” Ichigo looked around to see the others indeed aboard the car. “Don’t worry, don’t worry! I’m alright!” Ichigo claimed with her usual bright and radiant smile.
“Ichigo! It’s really, really good to see you” Ine said, just about stopping herself from hugging her friend.
That’s the Hoshimiya Ichigo I remember seeing before… Shouta smiled seeing a happy Ichigo, the one he was looking forward to seeing all this time, like the idol he adored watching on TV before he was sent to the academy. “At least here, she can rest after all that has happened. It’s way better than walking back!”
“Ichigo-chan,” Ai said, looking at Ichigo.
“Eh?” Ichigo uttered as she turned to Ai before replying to Shouta. However, Ai placed a round purple stone before her forehead. Ichigo instantly fell after a few seconds, her head falling over her lap.
“Jeez, that’s the end of this Alice Stone, I suppose,” Ai said, patting Ichigo’s head as she slept. “With this, she may sleep peacefully now,” Ai smiled, pleased with the effectiveness of the Alice Stone.
”She probably needs it,” Ine said, still worried about Ichigo but relieved to see no harm had come to her.
“Definitely…” Shouta agreed. Man, she seems so harmless. How can people call her the Life-Sucking Vampire when she’s like this…
“That was a Sleep Alice, that lied within the stone. I had one of my classmates make one for me. Pretty neat, right? Ichigo-ch- ahem, Hoshimiya-san pushes herself too hard, so we have this rule to use Sleep Alice on her when she’d get too stubborn.”
Aoi narrowed her eyes. Could she be…
“Makes sense. She seems like the type that would go overboard sometimes.” Shouta laughed a bit.
“Indeed,” Ai replied. “Back to the business,” she said, looking up to the others. “It’s not my turn to ask, however.” Ai smiled.
“Ichigo is gonna be fine right?” Ine asked.
“Sometime before the Alice Festival, until then I’m not letting her out of the hospital.”
“Can I visit?” Ine asked wondering if she would have to wait that long to talk to Ichigo again.
“Yeah, you should be able to.”
“Yay!” Ine shouted for joy. I want to visit everyday but I bet Ichigo will get bored with just me
“Is that all you wanted to ask, Akizuki-san?” Ai asked, confirming if she was okay with such normal questions when she could ask for more valuable information.
Ine nodded her head, “if I asked anything complicated I’m sure I’d get confused” she said hitting herself lightly on the side on her head and smiling.
“You did say it takes quite a toll on her, that she’d be affected by it for hours after just one use… I hope she’s okay…”
“I doubt it,” Ai replied. The car abruptly stopped, much to anyone’s thoughts, Ai spoke up. “Speak of the devil.”

“Eh?” Ichigo uttered as she turned to Ai before replying to Shouta. However, Ai placed a round purple stone before her forehead. Ichigo instantly fell after a few seconds, her head falling over her lap.
“Jeez, that’s the end of this Alice Stone, I suppose,” Ai said, patting Ichigo’s head as she slept. “With this, she may sleep peacefully now,” Ai smiled, pleased with the effectiveness of the Alice Stone.
”She probably needs it,” Ine said, still worried about Ichigo but relieved to see no harm had come to her.
“Definitely…” Shouta agreed. Man, she seems so harmless. How can people call her the Life-Sucking Vampire when she’s like this…
“That was a Sleep Alice, that lied within the stone. I had one of my classmates make one for me. Pretty neat, right? Ichigo-ch- ahem, Hoshimiya-san pushes herself too hard, so we have this rule to use Sleep Alice on her when she’d get too stubborn.”
Aoi narrowed her eyes. Could she be…
“Makes sense. She seems like the type that would go overboard sometimes.” Shouta laughed a bit.
“Indeed,” Ai replied. “Back to the business,” she said, looking up to the others. “It’s not my turn to ask, however.” Ai smiled.
“Ichigo is gonna be fine right?” Ine asked.
“Sometime before the Alice Festival, until then I’m not letting her out of the hospital.”
“Can I visit?” Ine asked wondering if she would have to wait that long to talk to Ichigo again.
“Yeah, you should be able to.”
“Yay!” Ine shouted for joy. I want to visit everyday but I bet Ichigo will get bored with just me
“Is that all you wanted to ask, Akizuki-san?” Ai asked, confirming if she was okay with such normal questions when she could ask for more valuable information.
Ine nodded her head, “if I asked anything complicated I’m sure I’d get confused” she said hitting herself lightly on the side on her head and smiling.

“So, they’re for more powerful Alices… okay, I think I get it.” Shouta nodded, thinking. Yeah, with crazy abilities like her's, it’d probably be best to have restraints. But, geez, that’s a lot. I thought she was just being fashionable.
“Woah, so she wasn’t just using it as her charm point or something.”
Ine had already guessed that they were restraints but was still surprised at the number.
“Anyway, after all that, she started partaking in missions more actively, hence received the name Life-sucking Vampire. She had been dreaded in the underworld, and loved in public. Despite the fact that she was in the Dangerous Abilities class, she was still seen as a good person by the students, which is rare, only other person who managed to stay good other than her is Amelia-san, so far. She tries very hard, but her chance to enter the Student Representatives, is quite slim.”
“Aw, poor Amelia-san. But I know that she’ll work hard and get it one day!”
Perhaps I should give her more respect for her effort… I guess I was still a little mad about what she told me that day I tried to escape…
Ai faintly replied, closing her eyes; admitting. “... She probably will.”
“Wait, Reo also mentioned that Hoshimiya-san harmed their boss, is this true?”
“Yes, she almost killed him with her Life Drain Alice when she came across him in a certain mission.”
”Killed…?”
“Indeed. The Life-Drain Alice is an Alice - like any other - that can be used for good or bad. It all comes down to the user’s mindset, maybe that’s the reason why the enemy organization’s leader didn’t die.”
So Ichigo doesn’t want to kill people? That’s a relief, Ine thought, feeling relieved, she sighed lightly.
“Then, I shall ask my next question, how long did Hoshimiya-san took to recover?”
“We lost count of time in there but… she started when it was still morning, at most it’d have been afternoon. She didn’t stop till it was dark, right before that one-sided fight begun… ”
”What exactly do principal students do?” Ine asked curiously, wondering what Ichigo and Ai had to do in that position.
Ai took a breath before answering. “Self-explanatory. We do what you see us doing. Trying to act like the ideal model students - as the true geniuses of the academy - we often have to deal with students breaking the rules and misbehaviors of students, when the teachers are unable to catch them. We’re also responsible for fixing rude behavior or ill manner of the students when the teachers aren’t there to correct them. This is how Shiraishi-san here, became an old acquaintance of mine. In regards to Hoshimiya-san, she adopted a facade to act as an exemplary student - the ideal role model from within her imaginations. She is very self-righteous, so much so that you’d think she’s some heroine from a story. Other than that, Principal students also deals with some internal affairs, as well as manage many things throughout the academy. Of course, we manage the academy-wide events - such as the Alice Festival. We always work harder than ever for it’s preparations in the background.”
Oh, maybe that’s why Shiraishi has been acting this way. What kind of punishment does she receive that’s making her so afraid of Ai-senpai, though? I should ask her, later. Shouta nodded as he took a quick glance back and forth between Shiraishi and Ai.
“A facade… huh?”
“By the way, the one who gave her inspirations and proper directions for such magnificence was none other than me,” Ai proudly claimed with her head high.

Ai answered with a graceful nod, displaying her pride. “There isn’t a student whom I do not know, Kiriya-san. It’s the least a Student Council President should do.”
“That’s dedication.” Shouta said, impressed. “How long have you been in the Academy?”
“How long? Mn,” Ai took some seconds to count. “Around ten years or so, I believe,” Ai herself wasn’t too sure, it could be an year more or less, she’d have to go back to the Student Council room to know for sure. She lost her sense of time after entering the academy, as she spent the majority of her time growing up within it’s walls that confined her indefinitely.
”A year more than me huh?” Ine said
“It’s still amazing how much you can memorize.”
“Again, it’s the least I am required to do.”
“Woah, you’ve been there for a long time!”
“Wow. I can’t imagine being stuck at the academy for that long… Don’t you have family waiting for you outside the walls somewhere?” Shouta asked, curious if she had similar circumstances he and Shiraishi had.
“Maybe, or maybe not,” Ai replied, seemingly disinterested in her parents. “But I have things I have to do here, as well as take care of my young sister, albeit she refuses my helping hand,” Ai sighed, Hyuuga Aoi was the largest source of stress to her. “I have met my parents after transferring to this academy, but they didn’t feel relieved to see me. Turned out that they’d rather see my younger sister. I suppose after that, I stopped wanting to leave the academy.”
“Your parents… had forsaken you?”
“Really? You’re parents favor your sister over you? That’s not right…” Shouta was surprised about all these unfortunate tales about why they were stuck at Alice Academy. How can you just abandon your children like that… He felt sympathy for Ai and Shiraishi. At least Shouta’s parents still correspond with him via letters.
“I feel as though there’s nothing waiting for me outside Alice Academy’s walls.” Ai coldly stated, with a tersely shown smug face. “I’m just a pitiful woman who was tricked into entering the academy. My sister came along because she liked me, but my parents saw it as me stealing their beloved cute daughter away,” Ai still smiled. At the end of the day, the people who didn’t really cared for her were better off being honest with her, and thus cut ties with her. Ai had no intention to ever go back home. However, she felt responsible for what happened to her sister, thus she wished to somehow send her back one day, or simply help her pass the exams so she may graduate.
“That’s… your parents only liked her, and not you?” Aoi looked down, she had no idea so many people with Alices led such sad and unfortunate lives. She thought Ichigo was the only one facing all types of troubles, but that was clearly not the case.
“Who knows, I didn’t pursue their feelings any further. I had no reason to do so. I just… couldn’t be bothered, I suppose.”
“You idiot, just be honest and say that you wanted to be loved just as much as your sister, too!”
“Wha-”
“I know how it feels! To be abandoned like that… it’s painful…” Shiraishi turned her face, remembering her grievous feelings after her parents sent a reply to her letters at last, recently.
Ine didn’t really understand the feeling Shiraishi and Ai shared. She had been at the academy for most of her life and her parent’s still sent letters often.
“Shiraishi-san...” Ai closed her eyes to ponder. “Perhaps…”
“Eh?”
“Just a little bit... Just a little bit, I felt hurt. I can’t be a proud Student Council President if I keep thinking about my parents, however,” Ai answered, a bead of tear rose up in her left eye - ruining her perfect smile - as she turned her face away, but she quickly rubbed it away. “Anyway, we should resume the information trade now. Next question, tell me how much injury Hoshimiya-san was inflicted with, before she recovered herself with her Alice?”
Shouta returned his thoughts to that moment. His expression became sour again, thinking about how Reo treated Ichigo. “Yeah, I mentioned that we were all being kicked around by Reo, but Hoshimiya-san got the worst of it. She was the first to receive the beatings, and Reo stomped all over her, stepping over her stomach, her face, and pretty much everywhere else on his body.” Shouta remembered it clearly, as well as the emotion of his overwhelming rage at that moment.
“Combined with her illness… and that,” Ai murmured as she grimaced for a short moment. At the same time, she felt somewhat worried about Ichigo.
Ai answered with a graceful nod, displaying her pride. “There isn’t a student whom I do not know, Kiriya-san. It’s the least a Student Council President should do.”

Aoi put her hands up to disagree after taking a sip of the sweet tea. “Oh no! It’s her who has been taking care of us!”
“Yeah! Really!” Shiraishi nodded, still clutching Aoi desperately.
“Mmm!” Ine nodded in agreement.
“Yeah, she saved me earlier.”
“Oh, Ai-senpai, you also have the same Star Ranking as Ichigo?” Aoi asked, seeing the emblem over her parkar. It portrayed a golden encircled star; same as Ichigo’s.
Ai boldly and proudly declared. “Ah, yes. I am the Student Council President of Alice Academy, currently,” Ai would never miss a chance to show off what she possessed; the highest title a student may receive in all of Alice Academy.
“EHH?!” Aoi exclaimed in surprised. “W-We’re travelling with such an important person aboard?!”
“Oh dear, please feel free to loosen up, all of you.”
“Even if you say so… ”
“Regarding what transpired today,” Ai begun, placing her cup of tea down; leaning forward. “Please try not to speak about it in public, or with others. It’d be more troublesome for those who’d be working to control the flow of information.”
“Flow of information… what?”
“What do you mean, senpai?”
The two asked in unison; bewildered by the abrupt use of different language.
“It’s how the information spreads out. Truth, false, rumors can also be built up using this.” Aoi begun to explain, pulling her index finger up. “For instance, the incident that occurred tonight may just be labeled as a gas explosion or an accident by the government, but in actuality - it was caused by Ichigo somehow… So, if we suddenly tell what really happened, it’d contradict the official information, and thus create unnecessary rumors. This makes curious people approach things they never should. Am I correct, Senpai?”
“Yes, you’re fully correct, Kiriya-san. To add, Hoshimiya-san is an important asset to the academy. We cannot have her name mix into whatever rumors that may take birth due to this incident.”
Ine scratched her head, not really understanding anything other that that Ichigo was important to the academy.
“Shouldn’t we let people know about Reo’s crimes? He needs to pay for what he’s done to us.” There was still rage lingering in Shouta’s voice at the mention of Reo.
Ai sighed, then shook her head before replying. “Unfortunately, there is no actual proof. Since he is a big superstar from Hollywood, it’d be a disadvantageous case to the academy. I doubt his concert would be cancelled, either. Much to my disappointment, the academy still favors the attention it’s getting due to his name. Many sponsors turned up due to his name.”
This information was upsetting Shouta again. “What the hell do you mean!? Can’t they apprehend his ship or something? There’s gotta be evidence around that pier and warehouse, too! We’re just gonna let him walk free!?”
“I had a feeling it’d be like that, but I didn’t wanted to accept that… ” Aoi said, after finishing her tea, and placing the cup away.
”No way…”
“Tch, that cheap bastard!”
Ai lightly jabbed over Shiraishi’s head before speaking, making her groan silently, “Don’t make your mouth any more vulgar, a true lady never speaks such words. He isn’t worthy of your attention, anyway,” Ai said, showing a rather motherly smile. Then faced Shouta. “Oh, don’t look at me that way, it wasn’t my decision. In fact, I was ordered to burn down their ship just to get rid of potential proof. The academy still wants to use Reo. Inversely, we don’t know what Reo might do after he steps into the academy, either. I feel that it was a poor decision made by the authorities,” Ai answered, taking a sip of her teach after closing her eyes calmly. “However, they may have a way to stop Reo in his tracks, for which they’re confidently inviting Reo to do his job of singing in the academy. I wouldn’t know for certain, though.
“That’s bullshit! He’s kidnapping children! He needs to be locked up somewhere! We can’t have him running around, doing all this!”
“Fame is power, apparently. He also has the anti-Alice organizations backing him up from the shadows.”
“That’s… why…?” Shouta was getting frustrated. It’s not fair… Just because he’s popular, he gets to do whatever he wants and get away with it? He put his hand on his forehead. This was giving him a headache. I can never forgive that bastard… I’ll take him down, if it’s the last thing I do! He needs to be brought to justice!
“For now, I suppose that’s how it is, but if there’s more obvious proof, something could have been done about it.”
“That’s still terrible though… after what he did to us…” Aoi said, remembering how he kicked everyone like a beast.
Ine’s cheeks still stung, the news that Reo was getting off scott-free upset her more than she would admit. ”That can’t be right!”
“That bas-”
“Shiraishi-san.”
“...” Shiraishi groaned as she mumbled. She then silently turned, so as to not face Ai again. Instead she focused on finishing her cup of tea. It was rather surprisingly delicious. Due to how Shiraishi was brought up, she barely ever had the luxury to have tea. “T-This is so good… ”
“I could treat you if you visit me in our dorms one day,” Ai offered, but she immediately received Shiraishi’s disapproval from the rapidly shaking head. Ai felt rather defeated, but maintained her flawless smile. “Anyway, was Hoshimiya-san hurt throughout this incident?”
”She…” Ine started but couldn’t continue, all choked up.
“Yeah… I don’t even wanna start with that.”
Shiraishi placed the cup away. “Uh huh. It was a gruesome sight, even I haven’t done things like that.”
“Reo…” Shouta breathed deeply after uttering his name. “He physically abused her at first, kicking her while she was bound; kicking all of us while we were bound, on that note.” He clenched his fist as he recalled that time.
“Oh? That piques my interest,” Ai said, her lips stretched to form a smirk.
Aoi put her hands up to disagree after taking a sip of the sweet tea. “Oh no! It’s her who has been taking care of us!”
“Yeah! Really!” Shiraishi nodded, still clutching Aoi desperately.
“Mmm!” Ine nodded in agreement.
“Yeah, she saved me earlier.”

(This is a joint post between Cinia Pacifica, BlinkXPoke, and BagMan.)
The weather was windy and stormy, thunder rumbled in the sky; flashes of bright lightning could be seen occasionally - as the group of four reached the road after leaving Hyuuga Aoi - a lone car could be seen parked in the road. Surprisingly, it was also a limousine?
“Deja vu?” Aoi said, looking at the car. When Aoi looked up-close after dashing up to it - there was someone standing in front of it.
A long blond haired girl, she held a scarlet umbrella as she stood close to the car’s door. Aoi couldn’t make out much of her appearance - as she was veiled by the darkness of the night - other than the fact that she had bright white skin.
“I’ve been awaiting you all, please get aboard the car. We shall make way for the Alice Academy immediately,” the beautiful tall lady spoke, in an elegant and admirable manner.
Everyone entered the car, after saying †˜please take care of us’ collectively, as they entered the vehicle prepared for them.
“Haah!” Aoi sighed, after taking a seat inside after hearing her voice; finally able to relax. “Please excuse me… ” Of course, she gave a curt bow to the glamorous young lady before getting herself inside the luxurious vehicle. She’s so amazingly pretty. Is this really Hyuuga-san’s †˜Onee-sama’?
“T-Thank you very much…” Shouta sunk into his seat in the car. He exhaled deeply, as he looked back at the warehouse, shrinking as they drove further away from it. He was relieved to finally be out of there. “Uhm… Who are you, might I ask?” Shouta asked in a polite tone.
“Greetings, I am Hyuuga Aoi’s sister. It seems that the entire situation was tiresome, please take your time resting now.”
“I-It’s the demon of the academy!” Shiraishi exclaimed, and crept up towards Aoi; scared. Her body trembled as she clung onto Aoi, as if clinging onto her dear life.
“Demon?” Shouta looked at Shiraishi, then back to the lady.
“There, there,” Aoi patted Shiraishi as she tilted her head with a confused expression, but wondered what this was all about.
“Oh dear - you may relax - Troublekinesis-san,” she responded with a graceful tone of voice, but Shiraishi felt an ominous aura instead, and fell silent. “My name is Hyuuga Ai. I’m pleased to meet you all,” she introduced herself with a polite bow, and offered everyone a cup of tea - all placed over a tray from which they could take the cups to their hands.
Hyuuga Ai wore the usual uniform of Alice Academy. She had bright white skin, fairly long - shiny blond hair, each of the hair’s strands had rolls at the end of them. She had beautiful purple eyes, and had attractive facial features, her height was somehow a plus to her appearance, she wasn’t as tall as Aoi thought. In fact, she’d be somewhat shorter than most students of the High School branch. It was regardless, the perfect figure a model would require - Aoi concluded from her assessment.
“Pleasure meeting you... senpai” Shouta bowed his head slightly. He still wasn’t accustomed to using that honorific; he felt that it has never before appropriate for him to use.
“You seem to be older than us, are you from the High School division?” Aoi asked, gladly taking a cup of tea from the offered tray.
“Yes, yes she is!” Shiraishi said in Ai’s stead, as she slowly took a cup of tea with fidgeting hands, it made the tea in it’s cup shake violently as well.
Shouta kept observing Shiraishi as he quietly accepted the tea. Why is she so scared of her? And why did she call her a demon?
“Troublekinesis-san, please. You make me look like the villain here,” Ai teased, then smiled. “Yes, I am indeed from the High School Division.”
“Ah, it’s my first time meeting a senpai, it’s a pleasure to meet you as well, Hyuuga-senpai.”
Ai took a sip of her own, rich tea. “Oh dear, your other name is the same as my dear little sister’s.”
“Yes! We do indeed share the other name.”
“Then, I assume you refer to her with our surname?”
“Eh? I suppose I do. In fact, I believe all of us do.”
“I see,” Ai smiled, her lips stretched only slightly, it was a beautiful and serene expression. “Then you may all simply refer to me as Ai-senpai,” she said, taking another sip of her tea. “I thank you all for taking care of my sister, even if it’s for not too long,” Ai then gave yet another courteous bow.
The weather was windy and stormy, thunder rumbled in the sky; flashes of bright lightning could be seen occasionally - as the group of four reached the road after leaving Hyuuga Aoi - a lone car could be seen parked in the road. Surprisingly, it was also a limousine?
“Deja vu?” Aoi said, looking at the car. When Aoi looked up-close after dashing up to it - there was someone standing in front of it.
A long blond haired girl, she held a scarlet umbrella as she stood close to the car’s door. Aoi couldn’t make out much of her appearance - as she was veiled by the darkness of the night - other than the fact that she had bright white skin.
“I’ve been awaiting you all, please get aboard the car. We shall make way for the Alice Academy immediately,” the beautiful tall lady spoke, in an elegant and admirable manner.
Everyone entered the car, after saying †˜please take care of us’ collectively, as they entered the vehicle prepared for them.
“Haah!” Aoi sighed, after taking a seat inside after hearing her voice; finally able to relax. “Please excuse me… ” Of course, she gave a curt bow to the glamorous young lady before getting herself inside the luxurious vehicle. She’s so amazingly pretty. Is this really Hyuuga-san’s †˜Onee-sama’?
“T-Thank you very much…” Shouta sunk into his seat in the car. He exhaled deeply, as he looked back at the warehouse, shrinking as they drove further away from it. He was relieved to finally be out of there. “Uhm… Who are you, might I ask?” Shouta asked in a polite tone.
“Greetings, I am Hyuuga Aoi’s sister. It seems that the entire situation was tiresome, please take your time resting now.”
“I-It’s the demon of the academy!” Shiraishi exclaimed, and crept up towards Aoi; scared. Her body trembled as she clung onto Aoi, as if clinging onto her dear life.
“Demon?” Shouta looked at Shiraishi, then back to the lady.
“There, there,” Aoi patted Shiraishi as she tilted her head with a confused expression, but wondered what this was all about.
“Oh dear - you may relax - Troublekinesis-san,” she responded with a graceful tone of voice, but Shiraishi felt an ominous aura instead, and fell silent. “My name is Hyuuga Ai.

Aoi, Ine, Shouta and Shiraishi ran. Leaving the shady warehouse where they were brought to by the criminals, they now ran blindly with the dark cloudy sky as their witness.
Some of the men in black appeared from in front of them, before Aoi would try to use her Acting Alice, Shouta prepared to strike instead. Ine stood behind Aoi with a worried face. Using his Shout Alice, and receiving support from Shiraishi’s Telekinesis Alice, Shouta easily blew them away. However, one of them pointed his gun from the ground.
Shouta stared the man down, ready to attack the moment he found the right opportunity. As the man got up, Shouta made his move, diving behind a crate, and thus, avoiding the gunfire. He pushed the crate forward, keeping himself hidden from the line of fire, waiting for him to run out of ammo so he could fight him properly.
“Damn you, brat!” Just as the man was about to fire again, his hand was set ablaze. “W-What the hell!” he shouted and shook his hand repeatedly. The flame stuttered in the air as it burned brightly as the man continuously waved his hand to put it out; letting go of the gun - desperately trying to somehow put out the fire. However, the fire wouldn’t go...
Shouta wasted no time coming out of cover and lunging forward to collide his fist with the man’s jaw. He followed up kneeing him in the groin, and pushing him down to the floor with his elbow.
“Hurry up and go on, the car is still waiting on you all,” Hyuuga Aoi said, walking up to Shouta from the shadows. It was unknown how long she had been there, or where she had been hiding. She smiled, and took a ladylike posture as she looked down at Shouta assaulting the man mercilessly.
“Hyuuga… san?! What are you doing here?!”
“Oh? Did you not know? I am also a member of the Dangerous Abilities class. All of the members were sent here, specifically to rescue Hoshimiya-san. My Onee-sama is here tonight, she’ll be accompanying you all in the car. Please proceed forward.”
“Geez, it seems like a lot of people we know are in the Dangerous class… I wouldn’t have guessed…” Shouta chuckled as he spoke his thoughts out loud. Before he started heading for the car, he spat on the man he just beat down. “I’d much rather have vented out all this anger on Reo, but you’ll have to do…” He kicked the man one more time, and started making his way to the car.

Jumping, then landing into a spot which was the epicenter of all her enemies, she brought her hand close to her face yet again. “It’s over.” Strands of light traveled towards her ring again, and were sucked inside of the gem, while the men screamed in pain; falling down to the floor.
Shouta averted his eyes. It was a painful sight to behold.
Aoi shouted out. “She did that… again!” She looked with pure surprise. “Does she really suck in others’ lives that way?!” Aoi asked to none in particular. However, she was very curious now, her worries started to subside as Ichigo seemed rather indestructible. There was one issue in her heart, though… was her friend the one she knew, or was that friend long gone?
Satisfied with how well things progressed, Ichigo sighed. However, much to her dismay, it was she who received a blow now. A punch delivered via Instant Teleportation. It was perfect for combat at the hands of a brute man, Ichigo believed.
Ichigo narrowed her eyes after pulling her body back up. A thin crimson strand of blood leaked from Ichigo’s lips as a result of her fist that lunged her cheek ruthlessly. She faced him without saying anything.
“Alright, we stalled enough time, do it!” the brute man yelled back towards the people who were preparing something for Ichigo - most likely a strong attack.
Ichigo took a glance to check what was behind the so-called †˜staller’ that she was facing.
Her eyes widened - brusquely - it was a big crystallized ice ball. “I see, so that’s what you guys are going for. I thought you guys gave up on trying to capture me?”
“Hah, we did indeed. Once you’re hit with that, you’d freeze up so much that you won’t live.”
“Is that… so?” Ichigo narrowed her eyes, eying the energy ball coldly with maintained composure. It seemed to be made up from Alice Stones, there didn’t seemed to be such a strong Alice user in the vicinity.
“Alright, take this, you monster!!” a ball of light was hurled in Ichigo's direction without hesitation, there were others behind it - once mostly the ones who conjured it - but they didn’t feel the need to steer clear or anything; confident that it’ll hit it’s mark.
“Ichigo!!” Aoi called out, fearing that she’d not be able to make it out alive from that. Perhaps it was wrong of her to think that Ichigo was invincible a few moments ago.
“Starlight.” Ichigo raised her fist towards the air as the spherical ball of icy energy approached her fearlessly, then stretched her right arm forward. A tiny blue flame sparked over the palm of her hand.
However, the round ball of coldness and icy energy was gone for some reason, as a strange blue projectile hastily devoured it, after appearing out of the blue. As if it wasn’t enough for it, the wave of flame speedily advanced forth - burning the floor black as it traveled forward - as soon as the cold round object was gone - it instantly incinerated Ichigo’s enemies in it’s burnt path - it struck a cargo before the walls, it seemed that something dangerous were stored in it, resulting in an ear-deafeningly loud yet small explosion. Debris flew out in all directions from the waves generated from the blast - in the air.
The wall - towards the direction - at which Ichigo shot her Starlight Alice was completely gone. †˜Ah, I almost forgot about it,” Ichigo sunk her hand inside her pocket and ruffled under it to take out a mask, and wore it casually. It was a white mask, shaped like a butterfly, and had black lines all over it; almost like a real butterfly’s wings. Due to these black linings, it was hard to tell where the opening for her eyes exactly lied.
Ichigo then looked to the right, finding Reo glaring angrily at her with a cranky look on his face.
Aoi looked closely, trying to figure out what Ichigo wore. “A mask… what for?” She thought out loud, pondering as to what it is for.
“Is that... another another Alice Restraint… ?!” Shiraishi thought back to when students would be punished, they’d seldom be given an Alice Restraint in the form of a mask.
“What’s wrong, you look like you saw a ghost right now.”
“Tch, enough of your yapping! Do it, guys!” as Reo commanded, some people beside him, including Mark - seemed to be holding guns in their hands - opened fire. If Alices wouldn’t work, they’d have to fight the more normal way.
Ichigo didn’t move, instead stood there; like a statue. Perhaps there was no time to evade. The bullets easily pierced through her clothes - her skin - her body. The repulsive force from the gunshots pushed her down towards the earth; she fell.
Ine, who had been completely unable to keep up with the pace of the fight and her inability to do anything, fell to the floor. She couldn’t accept the fact that her friend had been killed, so she just lay there in disbelief.
“ICHIGOOO!!” Aoi called out, tears flooded down her eyes as she yelled. Seeing her best friend shot down like that, Aoi begun to think if she’d even make it out alive tonight, and if she did… how’d she live on knowing that Ichigo left this world?
“Hoshimiya-san!! … T-This… can’t be, right?!” Shiraishi yelled out in disbelief. Crestfallen.
Shouta couldn’t hold back his hate for Reo. He lifted his leg, preparing to run towards him, blinded and numbed by his rage.
Aoi tried to run towards Ichigo, as well, but Shiraishi - snapping back to reality - desperately tried to stop both of them.
“Let go of me! Let go of me!!” Aoi screamed, wanting to be by her fallen friend’s side.
“Don’t hold me back! That fucker needs to die, NOW!!!!” Shouta roared as he tried to loosen Shiraishi’s grip on him.
“No! It’s too dangerous, they’ve got guns you know!” Shiraishi forcibly pulled the two back with her arms. Shiraishi spoke with teary eyes.
“Hahaha… HAHAHAHA!! We won!” Reo laughed out, the feeling of victory was almost addictive for him; ecstatic. His men lowered their guns; relieved. Reo walked over to Ichigo’s apparent corpse that lied a few odd meters in front of him. With a wide and happy smile, he had his foot stab at Ichigo’s chest. He felt like a winner; a true victor. Content with stepping over her - he looked down at her face, Ichigo’s eyes were shut closed.
Suddenly, a hand gripped his leg tightly - just above his ankles - Ichigo’s arm came to life. Her eyes abruptly opened to reveal her cold gaze; eying Reo with her cold and emotionless pair of crimson pupils. Reo’s body stuttered and shook violently, as if being electrocuted, his devastated face truly conveyed how much pain he felt, as an aura of light wafted off of him, and made way for Ichigo’s ring over her right hand.
“Eh?”
“Eh?”
Both Aoi and Shiraishi came to a realization in unison.
“You guys called me the Vampire, right? Have you ever seen a vampire dying from bullets? How preposterous,” Ichigo spoke as a matter of fact in a desolate yet sarcastic manner. “Or are you guys actually regretting not using something like what, a divine - god blessed bullet?”
Ichigo’s voice brought Shouta back to his senses, as well. “What the hell…?”
Ine’s head rose… ”Ichigo…? Ichigo!” tears streamed down her face in relief.
Ichigo’s left hand released Reo’s leg as soon as she was done stealing some of his life-force from him. As Reo’s body started to fall, Mark instantly teleported to his side and retrieved him, then teleported far back, taking safer distance.
“She’s… alive!”
“I’m… I’m so glad! But how would she live after taking shots like that?!!”
“I have no idea… !!” Aoi honestly replied, she truly had no clue how Ichigo survived the hit from those bullets, nor could she be bothered to think up a theory about it at the moment
“It’s gotta be some kind of a miracle… ” Shouta added, relieved.
”Ichigo is super strong… ” Ine said in amazement.
“I hate to admit it, but I was relieved to see her - of all people - fall after all the shots we made… to think she’d still be unaffected, what a monster! We’d better retreat, Reo-san!”
“No… fucking… way, not until… that bitch is dealt… with!” Reo forced words out his throat, completely burned out from Ichigo’s Alice.
“But it’s that Vampire, we can’t beat her!” Mark shouted, his arms and legs were shaking with fear.
“Mn, retreat? How would you guys do that?” Ichigo asked, as she did, a loud noise of thunder roared and rumbled out of nowhere from the sky outside, the flash from the lightning passed through the old transparent windows that lied closer to the ceiling above. The reflection from the blinding-light revealed several dark figures looking down at the battlefield.
The members of the Dangerous Abilities class were already here. With Ichigo present, the whole team was in one place, once again - after a long time. She didn’t need to look at them to know, she could simply feel their oppressive presence, their killer’s intent was good enough for her to take a guess without ever turning behind.
Aoi, Shiraishi, Ine and Shouta looked upwards to their left, finding the dark figures above - looking down at the enemies.
“Who… are they?!”
“Wait is that… Kage and Amelia?!”
“You’re… you’re right!” Aoi gasped immediately after recognizing the two familiar figures standing amongst strangers. But, why are they here now of all times? Even Amelia-san is here! Aoi thought, feeling a strange vibe from the entire situation now.
Jumping, then landing into a spot which was the epicenter of all her enemies, she brought her hand close to her face yet again. “It’s over.” Strands of light traveled towards her ring again, and were sucked inside of the gem, while the men screamed in pain; falling down to the floor.
