(This is a joint post between Cinia Pacifica, TheLoneGentleman and BlinkXPoke.)

It was the fourth day in Alice Academy for Aoi, Sakura and Shouta. Aoi was walking to school today. She couldn’t wait for her new and fancier room, much less find out what better functions and features it had. The rest of the day yesterday she was worried about Ichigo and imagined many scenarios, none were close to the truth, but they weren’t anything positive either. Her head was in a mess, and as her best friend, she was truly worried.

As she walked to the school, her schoolmates seemed to be rowdier than usual. Unlike yesterday, Ichigo wasn’t with her. She wondered if Ichigo was already supposed to be hospitalized from morning yesterday and was taken away, or did something happened in the Central Town? Aoi decided not to ponder too much about it as she slapped her cheeks with both her arms, then subsequently entered the premises with admirable architecture.

Aoi nonchalantly entered her class in the third floor. Everyone seemed to be excited, yet worried? Turned out Aoi wasn’t the only one who worried about Ichigo yesterday. The rumor about her was all over the air of the classroom, but so was the rumor about Reo. Aoi knew who this person is, she’d usually be excited, but this just came in at the wrong timing.

According to Aoi’s information - Reo is a singer. He is one of the more popular performers from Hollywood. Reo singing is apparently very good, and Aoi confirmed it herself, They really do sound great. There was just something that made her fall for him… Wait, is he an Alice? If he’s coming to this academy, the possibility is not zero! Aoi suddenly thought, what if it’s his source of popularity?

Amelia just took her seat, exact opposite to Aoi in the class. Not hesitating, Aoi immediately strolled off to Amelia, “Amelia-san, what’s this about Reo coming to our academy, all of a sudden? Have you heard about it?”

Just at this time, Shouta entered via the door close-by to the far corner of the room, and he heard Aoi’s last line. That name sounds familiar. Shouta thought, racking his brain as he found Aoi and Amelia before him, speaking to each other.

“Apparently so,” Amelia replied with a bland expression, “He’ll perform for our Festival, so he’ll have a check-up to make sure he can perform,” Amelia stated.

“Wait, is it that Reo?!” Shouta exclaimed in surprise. This guy appeared in television quite often when he’d surf around random channels.

Sono walked into class yawning. He didn’t get very much sleep, and honestly thought about just laying in bed for the day. In an effort to kick off his laziness he decided he would actually show up. As he walked in he heard his classmate Shouta yell like a giddy school girl.

“Yep, the Hollywood superstar,” Amelia replied, as she waved slightly towards the approaching Sono with a bland face.

Sono waved back before taking his seat. He had heard of the man before, but he wasn’t a fan of his music. Sono would forever be a person that listened to his classical music, and the occasional opera. He blamed his mother for his musical tastes.

Aoi looked to face Shouta, “Ah, good morning, Fushiki-kun!”

“Good morning,” Shouta nonchalantly replied. He then dropped his bag on his seat and sat beside Amelia, his attention was with the conversation.

Amelia saying this somehow felt like it just wasn’t a rumor anymore to Aoi, “T-Then as we were talking about, is Reo an Alice, as I suspected?”

“Probably, why else would he be coming here, of all places?” Shouta replied. “Perhaps it’s a similar circumstance to Ichigo?”

“Yes, yes he is,” a girly voice responded from behind Aoi, before Amelia could say anything. She turned to look behind, finding a very cute face with black hair. Her hair was only shoulder length, and she had dark red eyes. She wore a smile on her face, and Aoi noticed that she was a Double Star ranked student; much like the others - from looking at the attached small stars on her uniform.

Wait, who is that girl…? Shouta didn’t recognize her, as he’s never seen her in class thus far.

Food is good for the body, B.

(OOC: So these rolls were done and notes were made for when the small events took place, and actions were attempted. I got lazy and forgot to post these along with the posts. So yeah, I'm posting them all in this post.)

GM Notes:

Characters with incomplete mastery of Alice: There are few characters - including NPCs who can’t control their Alices - in this RP, currently the notable characters are: Shouta and Aoi. For such characters, a dice will be rolled based on the Alice attribute. Depending on the situation, attempt, state of mind, the requirement will be set. Regardless of the result, the Alice will work, the result will show how effective the results of the Alice would be.

Characters with no mastery of Alice: There are few characters in this RP who hasn’t learned how they may use their Alice. They may rarely trigger the Alice on, but cannot do so whenever they want, notably: Sakura and Ine. For such characters, a dice will be rolled based on their Alice attribute. Depending on the situation, attempt, state of mind, the requirement will be set. If the result doesn’t reach the requirement, the Alice will fail to activate.

State of disability: Ichigo is hospitalized. Her Strength, Dexterity are all reduced to 1, this is only because her Vocal Enchantment Alice’s passive effect is still in effect that her attributes hadn’t reached 0. Intelligence and Charisma are unaffected.

Weakened state: Amelia is still recovering from her overuse of Alice. Her Perception is reduced to 1.

---

Katsucha: Dice is rolled for an Intelligence check for Sakura. Requirement for success is 6.

Roll: 4

Result: 4 + 3 = 7

Effect: Sakura is able to pass the test. Mostly via her own knowledge, she hasn’t attended many classes after enrolling into this academy, but she knew some of the answers from studying even before entering the academy. Sakura scored 67 marks in the test.

Cinia Pacifica: Dice is rolled for an Intelligence check for Aoi. Requirement for success is 6.

Roll: 4

Result: 4 + 4 = 8

Effect: Aoi is able to pass the test with flying colors. She has been paying very close attention to the lessons and took notes carefully. She’s also generally very smart, and loves knowing random facts about various things, such knowledge came into use for once in this surprise test as well. Aoi scored 85 marks in the test.

BagMan: Dice is rolled for an Intelligence check for Ine. Requirement for success is 6.

Roll: 1

Result: 1 + 2 = 3

Effect: Ine gave a poor performance of her academic capabilities… if she has any, that is. She used her average level of knowledge, thus mostly wrote gibberish. It was still an attempt, yet a bad one. She scores below 24 marks in the test.

BlinkXPoke: Dice is rolled for an Intelligence check for Shouta. Requirement for success is 6.

Roll: 1

Result: 1 + 2 = 3

Effect: Shouta failed the test. He felt pressure from the sudden test, and his mind was in a mess the whole time. The mental stress ws taxing so his intelligence was already halved. He scores only 15 marks.

Montacia: Dice is rolled for an Intelligence check for Mio. Requirement for success is 6.

Roll: 3

Result: 3 + 3 = 6

Effect: Mio just barely made it to the passing score, which is 50. She hadn’t been in class recently, but as a fan of mythical, legendary and historical heroes, there is nothing Mio does not know in regards to such figures. The knowledge she collected due to this hobby came in handy for once. Mio scores 50 marks.

Montacia: Dice is rolled for a Perception check for Mio. Requirement for success is 8.

Roll: 5

Result: 5 + 2 = 7

Effect: Mio almost succeeds in finding Shouta by peeking into the correct empty room, and perhaps feels a presence after hearing a small noise, but doesn’t trust her senses this time, thus doesn’t find Shouta.

Katsucha: Dice is rolled for a Perception check for Sakura. Requirement for success is 8.

Roll: 4

Result: 4 + 2 = 6

Effect: Sakura couldn’t find a sign of Shouta whatsoever, but by being with Mio, the distance between her and Shouta was not so much. In a way, Shouta was close yet so far away from her, as he hid himself properly in the classroom.

Katsucha: Dice is rolled for an Alice check for Sakura. Requirement for success is 7.

Roll: 2

Result: 2 + 3 = 5

Effect: Sakura fails. She cannot properly remember the feeling when her Alice was first activated, nor can she understand how she can get started, instead, she gets hit by Misaki’s clone.

Katsucha: Dice is rolled for an Alice check for Sakura. Requirement for success is 5.

Roll: 2

Result: 2 + 3 = 5

Effect: From the severe pressure received as all clones of Misaki attacks, Sakura somehow activates her Alice. It was barely used, as such it only takes out one clone.

BlinkXPoke: Dice is rolled for an Alice check for Shouta.

Roll: 4

Result: 4 + 2 = 6

Effect: Shouta’s training yields positive results. He manages to lower his power’s volume twice. However, he still has a long way to go with this, and cannot pull this off unless he is in a very calm state, and maximizes his concentration.

Aoi came back to the dorms earlier than the other two transfer students today, it seemed. Entering the dorm, Aoi thoughtlessly made way for her room, but could hear voices. This is usually a common occurance people in this dorm loves to gossip about many things after banding together and gathering. They’d talk about many different rumors which apparently is very fun to kill time with.

Aoi wished she had that many people to talk to as well. Feeling slightly jealous of her peers, she ignored her feelings of envy and looked for Clara, who’d be giving her the Double Star room to her today - as she was given the Double Star rank today - this came with more privileges and more ego boosting points for her, but mostly made her feel like a more capable person - which made her happy. In reality, almost everyone in the Middle School branch had the Double Star rank. So, while she only reached everyone’s average rank, she still felt very happy today.

As she passed by the gossiping students in the corridor, Aoi heard something that caught her attention.

“Hey, hey, did you hear?”

“What rumor will you bring up, now?”

“Apparently someone saw Persona carrying Hoshimiya Ichigo-chan to the hospital!”

“R-Really?!”

“Well, it’s just a rumor. I don’t even know who this someone is, but apparently they saw it.”

“Well, rumor or no, anyone can confirm by going to the hospital, right? What’s the big deal? We prove whether the rumor is wrong or right.”

“The thing is, they won’t let you in for some reason… ”

“Oh?”

“Yeah, apparently they won’t let you in if you’re going to visit someone.”

“Why’s that?!”

“Apparently someone big is coming for a check-up to our hospital tomorrow. That person is apparently is going to be performing in the Alice Festival.”

“Who’s that?”

“You don’t know?! It’s Reo! Reo is coming to the festival!”

“S-Shiraishi-san… I had no idea that you were a huge fan of celebrities like Ichigo-chan or Reo-san!”

“Z-Zip it! A girl always have people they admire!”

“This is the first I’m seeing Shiraishi-san so flustered...”

“Well, this is the first time you’re talking to her. She talks to some of us - rarely - when not with her usual gang.”

“I just said zip it! Jeez!”

“You must really love them if you know so much about them.”

“Yeah, unexpectedly, Shiraishi-san knows all rumors and information when it concerns Ichigo-chan, now that I think about it.”

“I-Is it wrong to like Hoshimiya-san… ?”

“Haha, of course not. This is just the first time I’m seeing this side of you is all. Thought you don’t care about stuff like this.”

“Hmph! ...But, I feel really worried about Ichigo-chan. Maybe I should try to sneak into the hospital tomorrow somehow!”

“Woah, the delinquents sure are bold and know no fear!”

“Jeez!”

As everyone burst out laughing, Aoi’s face turned darker with worries, W-What if this rumor and the thing about Ichigo †˜having business to take care of’ has a connection… ? Did Ine-san knew this? Did she lied about it?! Aoi’s mind was a mess as she jumped to conclusions in an emotional state. After walking with a cold and a sweaty face, she across Clara.

“Kiriya-san, you look pale today, anything wrong?”

“N-No, everything’s fine.”

“... If you say so, I’ll be leading you to your new room now! Your luggage and belongings were already moved.”

A cold sweat ran down her face as Aoi spoke, “Ah, is that so? Please show me my room, then.”

(This is a joint post between Cinia Pacifica and BlinkXPoke.)

Narumi looked at the two with a serious face, “For Kiriya-chan,” Narumi looked specifically at Aoi now, “You should use your Acting Alice with the others in here often. It should be good enough for you.”

”Really? Is that all, sensei?” Aoi asked, tilting her head. She expected something special.

“Yes!” Narumi gave a grand smile, “Your objective is to bring stability to your Alice~! You can’t put too much power, nor can you put too little!” Narumi warned her, “Otherwise something may go very wrong!” he continued, “So, you can try to impersonate others, and do small skits. You may experiment and see if your Alice works against birds or animals, of course, but don’t pick dangerous animals, please.”

”Yes! I’ll try my best!” Aoi said, very determined.

“As for Fushiki-kun, we need to find a special place for you where many won’t be devastated by your Alice,” Narumi said, pondering, “We might find a specially soundproof room somewhere in the Central Town. Maybe you can come with me,” Narumi said, feeling unsure, “Your objective is to learn to control volume. I suppose you should learn to make such low volume that it would affect people only within a small radius. So that you don’t generally annoy people publicly.”

“Makes sense… But, such a place exists?” It seemed awfully convenient to Shouta that there would be a soundproof room like that for sound-based Alices. “Also, how would I practice my volume control. Will somebody be measuring it?” He was unaffected by his own Alice the last few times he had used it, so he couldn’t tell for himself if his self-control was getting better.

“We have devices that will measure the volume level,” Narumi answered, “Of course, these are actually just rental studios where a singer or a musician practices their music, but it’ll work in our favor.”

“Oh… I see now.” Shouta had forgotten that possibility. Right… those booths are soundproof. A studio, though… I wonder if Ichigo practices there… He remembered a certain pop idol was in his class, and was interested in her music. Shouta used to listen to her sing on television at his home often, before he was taken to the Academy. If I see her, I should get an autograph!

”Huh? Was I imagining that?” Misaki said, seeing Miya’s face, but kept the rest of the thoughts to herself, Is her Alice that rare and special? she sighed, ”Alright, let’s get started!” Misaki exclaimed. A clone of her body appeared right beside her - her Doppelganger Alice was activated. ”See if you can nullify my Alice. Focus on my clone or something, try to remember how you used your Alice the first time.”

”I’ll brawl with you if that’ll help!” Misaki’s clone said, taking a stance and facing Sakura.

Already tasked with the shopping trip to Central Town, Mio had been writing down the materials they would possibly need to create the RPG. However she glanced up with curiosity when she noticed that Misaki was doing something other than directing the planning. “Hiiragi-san, you’re doing alice training with Harada-san?”

“Yes, since I still have no clue how my Alice works.” Sakura replied to Mio, then turned to face Misaki ”And thats fine with me Misaki-san!” Sakura said happily.

If her Alice is to nullify other people’s Alices then I guess I won’t be able to help her train with mine... Mio dejectedly sighed, once again unable to help others with her Alice. She quickly cheered herself up though by thinking that at least she was able to help with the Alice Festival preparations. “I’m off to grab some materials then! See you all later!”

Misaki’s clone made an abrupt dash towards Sakura, and almost instantly held her in a lock with her arms. Before she knew it, Misaki’s clone was about to snap both of Sakura’s arms from behind her on the floor. It seemed more like wrestling, Seems like slight difference in personality on my clone’s part… ? the real Misaki guessed. She said she’d just brawl, but she instead pulled a completely different move. Nonetheless, putting Sakura in actual pressure may help.

Caught by surprise, Sakura yelped as she was in a lock-down by Misaki’s doppelganger which ruthlessly tried to pull her arms apart. It was painful, Sakura started to really feel it, a groan slipped past her throat, “I thought we were suppose to brawl” Sakura yelled out as she tried to get freed from the hold she was put in. However, no matter how much tried to resist, the clone wouldn’t vanish; meaning her Alice was not working. Instead, she followed her barbaric instincts and somehow pulled herself and flung her leg to the down as much as possible; kicking the clone of Misaki’s butt successfully. Pushing on the soft buttocks, she managed to force herself out of the lock.

”Woah, that was reckless!” the original Misaki said. Five more doppelgangers of herself appeared, ”But the point is to not fight back with your body, but with your Alice instead!” the clones all jump over Sakura, as if trying to overwhelm with excess weight over her body so as to crush her. Misaki was reminded of a sport, but she was too lax to remember the name. This was - regardless of the point - entertaining.

“That’s too many!!” Sakura screamed as she was suddenly surprised that Misaka had summon five more clones. Sakura struggle to get the clones off her. Though as she struggle she tried to concentrate on using her Alice but she found it hard concentrating while having six people on top of her. “Get off me!!” Sakura screamed again though at that moment she felt her load get a slightly lighter.

“Ooh! One of my clones vanished!” the real Misaki exclaimed, and then all the other clones said the same thing, in a comical way. The all got off of Sakura.

“So does that mean that her Alice worked?” a boy asked, curious. He was known to make diamond dust with his Alice, which is pretty useless.

“Seems that way… it’s a step forward, definitely!” Misaki claimed with a smile.

“I guess one is better than nothing.” Sakura said a bit happily. “But was it really necessary to summon that many clones!”

“Of course! We’d only get result with severe force and weight!” Misaki claimed, “So, you remember the feeling now?”

”Umm, I think, not really sure. I did have to try and not get squashed by six other people!

“Ooh, then all we have to do is keep repeating this, right?” Misaki said excitedly, “Prepare yourself!” many more clones appeared once again - definitely more than just six.

“Umm, Misaki-san what are you doing…” Sakura said as she couldn’t understand why she summoned so much.

“The next round of brawling!” one of the doppelganger claimed.

“Eh” Sakura said, stunned. “Eeeehhhh, This is over the top, idiot!!”

(This is a joint post between Cinia Pacifica, Katsucha and Montacia.)

”Just goes to show how rare your Alice is.”

“Well, thank you, Sensei!” Sakura said, smiling. “Oh, Harada-san, for helping me I’ll treat you to some sweets once I get my allowance.”

”Ooh, nice! But do you even know where to get sweets in Alice Academy?” Misaki asked, then looked at Miya, ”Sensei, when is Sakura getting her allowance, anyway?”

”Mnm… the headquarters probably intends to give them from next month on, but I’ll see if I can get the transfer students’ allowances tomorrow.”

“Thank you, Sensei. Oh and Harada-san, I was hoping you would show me, unless you wouldn’t mind sweets made by me if I could get a hold of a kitchen and ingredients.”

”I haven’t had Howalon in ages so I’ll show you around the Central Town some time,” Misaki said, accepting the fact that she has to train Sakura now.

“Howalon? What’s that?” Sakura asked - confused. This was the first time she heard of such a name. Was it the name of a sweet, or something completely different, but delicious nonetheless?

”It’s the best sweet sold in the Central Town, it’s so popular that it gets sold out almost every day. It’s amazing, you should have a taste at least once.”

“I see. Well then, let’s give it a try sometime tomorrow or after.”

”Sure, I’ll join you, for now!”

”Sorry to interrupt you all but… what are you all thinking of doing in the Alice Festival this time?” Miya asked, prepared to feel disappointment from her lax students. Miya looked with disdain as most students didn’t seemed excited about doing anything.

“Well Sensei, I think we should do something. The rest of the class believes we shouldn’t. I might be the only one but... I think we should do a RPG!” Sakura said, feeling embarrassed. The idea came to her some time after her argument with Misaki, who seemed to represent all the people of the class who were wanting to just enjoy other classes’ attractions instead of working on one themselves.

An invisible pair of pricked-up puppy dog ears could almost have been seen outside the window if not for the fact that invisible things can’t be seen.

”Mn, an RPG you say? What would it be about?” Miya asked, curious. Misaki and the others couldn’t understand what Sakura was up to, but it seemed rather over the top.

(This is a joint post between Cinia Pacifica and Katsucha.)

”Now, onto the next Alice form,” Miya shifted her focus to the top right figure that had many more stars around it, ”This is known as the Diffuse Form,” Miya begun, ”An Alice with Diffuse Form is a form which almost never runs out when the user is young. At least after the age of 20, there may be premonitions experienced by the Alice regarding the end of their Alices’ lifespans,” Miya then looked at Sakura if she were paying attention, then continued, ”Other than that, Alices with the Diffuse Form are known to be the most common for generations now. These Alices can’t be used very frequently, but their effects are very minimal, and they last longest usually. Of course, depending on the uniqueness of each users, some Alices of the Diffuse Form can still be quite formidable. Understood?”

Sakura continued taking notes, she was however, wondering what form her Alice was. She wondered if there existed a way to determine her own Alice form. It’d be stressful considering the possibility of having the Childhood Form, too.

Miya then moved her chalk from the top right figure, to the lower left one. This particular figure had many stars, but was enclosed with a circle, ”This is the Intermittent Form. This is the opposite of the Diffuse Form. This Alice has a short lifespan, but unlike the Childhood Form, this may last for as long as possible if the Alice can be preserved properly. Whenever the Alices of this form are used, they’re usually stronger than usual, but only when the Alice is in proper control,” Miya explained. Then looked back at Sakura again, she seemed to be writing notes diligently.

“S-Sensei, would you happen to know what form my Alice is?” Sakura asked, hoping Miya wouldn’t say that she has the Childhood Form.

”Um, there is no way for to tell for sure. It’s something you have to notice and understand from the usage of your Alice. It is your Alice, after all, but if it were the Childhood Form, you’d have lost the Alice an year or two ago,” Miya answered, noticing the root of her worries, she then pointed towards the last figure to the lower right, ”However, if it’s this form, you’ll know from just using the Alice, at one point,” Miya stated, and continued after making a very serious expression, ”This is known as the Limited Form,” the figure was encircled with not just a circle, but it was also under one large star. However, the figure was drawn in a way that it was covering it’s mouth with it’s hands… ?

”The Limited Form Alices are exceptionally powerful Alices. Their potential is known to be groundless as they never seem to run out regardless of age,” Miya stayed silent for a few seconds, then sighed before moving on with the explanation, ”However, after a certain point, when they use their Alice, they harm their body and health… “

Sakura felt relieved upon hearing Miya say that she doesn’t have the Childhood Form. Though, upon hearing about the Limited Form, Sakura wondered how bad the harm usually is, “Um, Sensei how much do they get hurt from using their Alice?” Sakura wondered, It probably just immobilizes them for a day or two.

”It’s usually more dependent on the uniqueness of the Alices themselves, but normally, once the Alice is used - after a certain period of time - the user will experience the deterioration of their health. This typically results in a fit of coughing, which leads to them coughing out blood. Those who overuses their Alice usually don’t live enough to even grow up to be an adult.”

(This is a joint post between Cinia Pacifica, Katsucha, and Montacia.)

”Yes, but what do you mean by †˜also in’? Aren’t you in already the Latent Type Class, Amahane-san?”

A strained laughter escaped from Mio’s vocal chords. Guess I can’t avoid it any longer... “I.. I never said I was, I… I’m in the Special Alice Type Class too!” She blurted out, forcing the depressing truth from her mouth.

“Oh, sorry about that I guess since I heard you say that you had Heroic abilities. I just assumed you were in Latent Class.”

Hearing the forbidden words, Mio squatted in a corner of the classroom and drew imaginary pictures on the ground while quietly reciting the reason for her blue screen of death. “Latent... ahaha... Latent…”

”Sorry to rain in on your melodramatic parade but… we’re probably not doing anything for the Alice Festival this time~!” Misaki lazily said from the seat under the table on the other side of the spacious room.

†˜Not doing anything...’ Not doing anything?! Mio instantly snapped back to reality. “But Harada-san! We can’t not do anything! It’s the Alice Festival!”

”Ehhh? But no one comes to whatever we prepare. Isn’t it like a huge waste of time?”

Misaki’s attitude was unacceptable from Mio’s point of view. For Mio, giving up is the bane of her existence. “Maybe we just had a bad idea! That doesn’t mean we should stop trying!”

”Can I ask what you guys made last year?”

”We did… probably the rest house? We were being lazy so it was perfect! We had a cool show of weather changing thing inside the house, though. I wonder whose idea was that… well, whatever!”

Sakura stayed silent for a minute upon hearing Misaki respond.”Harada-san who would come to something like that when festivals are suppose to be about having fun and not resting!!”

”But people don’t come even after doing something exciting! Well, that’s how it has been for many years now.”

”Can I ask what exciting things has the Special Alice Class has tried doing?”

”No idea, but this has been a long-running streak. I doubt anyone cares about what we do anymore.”

”I wouldn’t be surprise if all the Special Alice Class ever tried doing was a rest house” Sakura mutter

“I suggested that we could do a crime scene investigation simulation, but no one voted for it.” Even now, Mio still hadn’t forgotten how there were only two arms raised for her idea. Both arms belonging to none other than herself.

”Anyway! We’re doing nothing after all!” Misaki said, trying to ignore the two rebels, as sweat ran down at the back of her head. It was tiresome arguing with these two.

Mio knew, deep down, that there was no way the others would support her side of the argument. However, despite her desire to not give up, the anger within her had risen to the point where she had to let it out. “Harada-san, you meanie!” Holding back her tears, after all there is no such thing as a crying hero, Mio dashed out of the room.

”Amahane-san, come back!! Class is about to start!” Sakura screamed as Mio ran out of the room.

Zamor.

Not that you're praiseworthy as a 0/10. :3

D, fixing the generator is apparently already impossible as it is 'beyond repair', this means that taking the creature's body part is the actual solution. I can imagine her being eaten in the dark, so yeah.

(This is a joint post between [color=#ff0088]Cinia Pacifica[/color] and [color=#e3bd98]BagMan[/color].)

Ichigo ran, as fast as she could. There was no way others wouldn’t recognize her, for which she ran with a forced smile. She waved her hand to her apparent fans who smiled after witnessing her very figure. However, just as she noticed that she reached a point where it was devoid it people, she found an ice cream shop. It looked small, she wondered why it was there of all places. Or rather, why people weren’t here around this time of the day.

Ichigo shook her head and immediately cleared her head of minds, then dashed straight into the alleyway that was right beside it.

Before she knew it, Ichigo fell down on her knees. Supported with the shades darkness and shadows of the buildings, she felt safe to stop delaying what was eventual - proceeding into a state of a coughing fit. She desperately tried to cover her mouth with a handkerchief as she loudly coughed. Despite her efforts, she couldn’t stop, nor could she lessen the noise. It’d be bad if someone discovered her here.

After about a minute, the problematic coughing stopped, Ichigo hesitatingly looked at the center of her handkerchief, there was a tint of crimson blood...

Ine was rather bemused at Ichigo’s behavior, slipping away from the others a few seconds after Ichigo by feigning a need for the toilet, she followed her friend’s mad dash. As Ine ran to try and keep Ichigo in sight she noticed her duck into a narrow alleyway. Peeking behind the corner so as not to let Ichigo notice her she saw what happened.

The coughing was incredibly violent. It was all Ine could do to not flinch or yelp at the sound of it. [color=#e3bd98]”Ichigo-san”[/color] She muttered sadly to no one in particular. It was then she saw the flash of red in Ichigo’s handkerchief. It was so surprising she couldn’t help but cry out in sympathy.

[color=#ff0088]”Lalalala~!”[/color] Ichigo sang out abruptly, after half a second, [color=#ff0088]”Lalalala~~!”[/color] she repeated, imitating a certain song’s rhythm, she sighed, [color=#ff0088]”I know you’re there, Akizuki-san,”[/color] Ichigo then laid her back against the cold wall of the ice cream shop that laid on the other side, and pulled her knees up, only to dip her face in between.

[color=#e3bd98]”Ehehehe”[/color] laughed Ine weakly, stepping out from behind the corner, [color=#e3bd98]”You found me”[/color] Ine walked closer towards Ichigo and sat down beside her. [color=#e3bd98]”Does it hurt?”[/color] Ine asked kindly.

[color=#ff0088]”A little, but this isn’t much,”[/color] Ichigo muttered from under her thighs. She then gave a deep sigh, [color=#ff0088]”Please don’t tell anyone about what you saw here,”[/color] pulling her head up, it seemed as though she wanted to say something, but cringed instead, and covered her mouth; she had a coughing fit instead.

[color=#ff0088]”Eh… ?”[/color] Ichigo uttered after her condition stabilized, [color=#ff0088]”I wonder why, everything looks fuzzy, and blurry… “[/color] before she knew it, her vision soon turned black. Ichigo fell to the side opposite to Ine; passing out.
