Last time, Natasha was having her first day at school in years. She encounters Keenan Higashikuni, a guy who seems to have it in for Natasha. As class went on I felt a weird presence in the air from last night. As classes ended, I ran into Mariah and Sam. Hey you are the new girl, Natasha Higashiyama? Mariah asked. Yes I am, who are you? I asked. I am Mariah Maruya, nice to meet you. Mariah replied. Keenan walked outside the classroom to his next class. Keenan, could you at least try to be nice to her, she is your classmate. Mariah replied. We're classmates nothing more. To be honest, I rather not we speak like we even know each other. Keenan replied. Keenan walked off. Hey who p*ssed in his Cheerios? I asked. Mariah laughed. I never heard of that saying before. Mariah replied. A friend of mine named Akane would always use that term when people would provoke her. I replied. She sounds funny. Mariah replied. She is, I wish I could see her and her little sister again. I replied. Mariah, where are you? Sam asked. Oh, you are the girl from this morning who pulled that amazing feature. Sam replied. That's me in a nutshell. I always break that norms of what people see fit. I replied. As I said that, the presences appeared again. I saw the sky turned dark. The students panicked and I got away. Chikara, what am I seeing right now? I asked. Well, you are witnessing an attack on the school grounds. Chikara replied. Hey, don't get smart with me. I replied. Natasha, you have to take out the source of the problem. Chikara replied. Alright, let's do this, Chikara. I replied. Soon as I transformation I turned into a shadow. I ran outside and saw those two girls again. You two again? I asked. Who could cause something so cruel to happen? Fire elemental asked. I turned from the corner of my eye a saw a shadow in the distance. I looked again and the shadow moved and tried to attack the water elemental user. I pushed her out of the way. Why did you push me out of the way? Water elemental asked. The mastermind of the scheme is hiding in the shadows. I replied. I looked again. I saw someone come through a ripple and attacked the fire elemental user. She grabbed his wrist and swished it. You are stronger than you look. I replied. I can do more than grab a wrist. Fire elemental replied. As she pulled him out of his portal ripple, he summoned a sword cutting her arm letting him go. As soon as I saw that. I rushed over to see if she was ok. Are you ok? I asked. I am fine but I have seen that power before he did it. Fire elemental replied. Who is he? As I turned he tried to slit my throat. I summoned my sword and tapped his sword lightly and an intense clash of power came out. His shadow appearance faded. He wore a black cloak. He had hair the color of night and eyes the color indigo. We started clashing swords moving at such an accelerated pace. Is she keeping up with him? Water elemental asked. It would take at least the both of us to take him on. As I was fighting him, I felt something was off about him. From the distance, I sensed another presence. I never thought he would meet a person who can keep on par with him. Requiem of the Undead King! Kamigoroshi yelled. Scatter in the mist, Higanbana! I yelled. That attack carried and knocked out the other guy from earlier. A girl with blonde hair and wearing gothic lolita walks up and snapped her finger. That attack dispersed. I see you inherited the ability to use that hellish blade. Clementine replied. What is it to you? I asked. Another mandrel carrying the bloodline of that cursed woman. Clementine replied. Are you supposed to make me or the other feel inferior to you? I asked. This power bestowed upon me for a reason. I replied. I pointed my sword at her saying, "If you think your words are supposed to oppress me?!" " You have another thing coming, blondie!" Clementine looked in the distance and walked away. She snapped her finger and a portal opened. Acedia Magic, used in this age and time? Chikara thought. Come on boys, we were being watched by a very powerful enemy, she could come out in the distance and attack. Clementine replied. What? Kamigoroshi asked. Save your blood-lust for another time. You will fight her soon enough. Clementine replied. From the distance, I sensed a very powerful presence that was masked quite well. The girl wielding that Irian sword is very powerful. Ami replied. She is one hell of an optimist, Natasha Higashiyama. Kaori replied. As the fighting stopped, school let out early from the tremors. The three of us disappeared. We vanished into the confusion. The three of us met up again. Hey Natasha can we go to your house? Mariah asked. Why? I asked. Well, you seem like your shrouded in mystery and my curiosity is running wild. Mariah replied. Sorry for her. Sam replied. I mean you can come over to my house no big deal. I replied. As we walked together, we ran into India and Keenan walking together. What did I tell you? India asked. I didn't say India or acknowledge your presence. We are going to the same destination. I replied. Get off that high horse of yours. Wait are you two related? Keenan asked. I sighed and shook my head. Before we knew it, we were at the house.
