"That's right! I have been practicing… is something the matter?" she asked me with a dumbfounded look. 

"Nothing but… have you been here for quite some time?" I asked her. 

"Yeah…?" she replied. 

Does that mean she hasn't seen her phone yet? And how crazy is it for her to practice this much? 

"Is there something that I missed?" she asked me with her weird look. More like it was like a small puppy wagging her tail with eyes brimming with excitement. 

"No. Nothing much," I tried to brush it off. 

"Eh… well I believe it but aren't you in a bit of a pinch if I am not prying too much," she said with a sly look. 

"What do you mean?" I asked her. 

"Well you had that video released on the School Forum not too long, right?" she said. 

"And here, I thought you weren't someone to be involved in things like this," I said. 

Based on her appearance and her behavior I assumed she is more of an outing person, rather than sitting around idly and scrolling down the boring site, the School Forum. 

But it got famous quite fast, so I guess people tend to share these things with others much more. 

"Hey!" she smacked the side of my shoulder. 

Although it didn't hurt much, it still held strong. I wonder if it is because of all the time she spends playing basketball. 

"So? What do you want to say in that comment?" I asked her.

"You must have gotten in some trouble, right? And in addition to that, the Student Council is also right behind you," she said in a low voice. 

"About that… I might have taken that for the time being," I said. 

"H-Huh!?" she flinched a bit and then jerked back feet or two. 

"What…?" I am confused by that reaction. 

"What do you mean you have taken care of them for the time being…?" She staggered a bit in the beginning but calmed down in an instant. 

"After your practice, why not see it for yourself?" I said. 

"... Allen what's with that vibration all this time coming from your pocket?" she asked me. 

"Ah… about that, it's the same answer. After practice you will know about it eventually," I said. 

"..." she fell silent all of a sudden. 

It's something new. For the first time ever, I have seen her this silent, and why only when I mentioned about me taking care of the Council… suspicious. 

"Tell me something," I said. 

"... What?" 

"Which year are you in…?" I asked her.

"Third year, why do you ask?" She looked puzzled. 

"Hmm…" I racked my brain up and got only one conclusion. 

"What's wrong?" she asked me. 

"You are in the Student Council," I said. 

As I said that, I nonchalantly placed one of my arms in my pants pocket.

"W-What? What nonsense are you spouting all of a sudden?" She didn't show any signs of revealing the truth but all the dots matched her. 

Right after my first 'gathering' with the Student Council, I noticed them talking to a girl but I couldn't clearly look at her face. At first, I thought it was just some friend of theirs but that wasn't the case. With Harrison that day and also on the certain day of my first day in school.

Not one, but more than once I have seen her. I have seen her figure on multiple occasions and her being taken aback when I mentioned I took care of the Council was also suspicious. 

"I don't know who you really are but you are with the Student Council but haven't been revealed to anyone yet and for some reason you are always with them," I said, "Not only that, you are somewhat a special student around here."

"..."

"I haven't seen anyone practicing here all day long," I said, "Except you. Even though it's not enough for me to prove you are with the Council but that's up to me to believe it or not and I am sure that you are." 

"Aren't you a nice junior?" she said. 

She was acting as usual but her air became piercing. 

"Allen, I don't know what have you really done but tell me one thing," she pressed further, "How is that every evil deed that we hear in the rumors revolve around you?" 

"Coincidence can be freaky," I said. 

"Six others came along with you but none was suspected of anything. Only you got singled out and that's when I started to wonder something. You wanna know what that was?" she asked. 

"Will you don't if I say 'no'?" I asked. 

"Of course not. I haven't known your existence ever since you entered here. But one day 50 students got kidnapped and even then you weren't mentioned. You were just someone in the crowd," she said, "But what made you stand in the spotlight right when you returned." 

"..." 

"Slowly but then I started to notice you. Don't misinterpret it, I didn't take interest in 'that' way but rather in the opposite way. Hearing the rumors, and that's when I took the opportunity to know about you. But you were still an air that came along with the gush of wind," she said, "No one knew about you." 

"..."

"With the help of connections I got to know you even got arrested and investigated by the police," she said. 

"..." 

"Nothing mattered at that point to me," she said with a disgusted look on her face, "A person who is dark to the core, I knew for sure that you aren't suitable for this school." 

"So with just knowing I got arrested you assumed I was a bad guy? Isn't that a bad judgment on your part?" I asked. 

"You tell me the answer to it then," she said, "If you were suspected of murder and was arrested soon enough. Would someone think twice before suspecting you as a real culprit? And what else you were the sole person. If you aren't related to all this then how come everything is revolving around you, not someplace else?" 

"..." 

"So, I took it upon myself," she said, "I will make justice prevail and make you suffer for all your wrong deeds till now…" 

She changed to her usual self and into a weird justice-seeking creature. 

"Aren't you just using your sense as justice? You know there are laws made to make justice prevail, not someone's own way of thinking about justice," I said. 

"True but for justice to prevail you need to take a step to the dark side," she said with a sinister smile. 

Don't tell me she is a bit similar to me. 

I don't really care about justice but I do care about getting into the dark side to get my ways. 

"So what are you going to do to me now?" I asked her. 

TO be honest, at first, I thought of going easy on you since talking to you felt different from what I had expected and the things you did but now that you seem to have taken a step against my justice I have to take a step," she glared at me. 

"Really?"

"You also know this just as a heads up," she said, "I am now coming at you directly. And I will drag you out of this school if I have to." 

I wanted to laugh right now. I really wanted to laugh my way out. But I shouldn't. 

"Well that's bad news for then, isn't that right?" I said. 

"..." she wasn't fazed and moreover her bright air seemed to have been diluted with something black. 

"Why don't I give you a heads up as an exchange offer?" I proposed a silly idea. 

"..." she didn't even blink. 

"Don't get me wrong but you are stupid," I said. 

"?!" she seemed to have flinched a bit in anger but I wasn't finished yet. 

"Telling your enemy to brace themselves as the worst strategy anyone can think of," I said, "Also did you think that I would sit silently all this time? Hiding myself from you all?" 

"...?" 

"I have already shaken your entire school," I took a step closer to her, "Don't think that your justice is the only thing that exists in the world that can prevail." 

"Ah, also if you care about your school why don't you stop this stupid practice and look after your precious justice seekers?" I said as I tapped her shoulder and walked past her. 

I couldn't have seen what expression she was making but I did hear her shoes running across the court. 

'You aren't the only one coming…' 

I mumbled to myself and walked to my classroom again, hoping things would have calmed down a bit and who knew it got even worse than before. 

Not just the students but the entire Teacher cast was in turmoil. 

Well they should be, I just got their School's Future at stake. I wonder how the Student Council will react to this…
