Chapter 9: Study Notes and Sadomasochism
During the math lesson, the math teacher Kagome Lilikowas teaching class 1-3 ways to remember coefficients easily, especially during a test. The class listened intensely to the lesson at hand, with several who took notes to make sure that they’ll be able to study in addition to not forget such useful information. Many who took notes used their notebooks while Lou used the touch screen laptop to jot his notes down for later revision into a legible text.
Tsukune, however, soon realized that he was completely lost and feared that he was left behind with the rest of class. “Go ahead Tsukune-kun.” He went wide eyed as his mind drew a blank for the answer.
“Ano (um)...eetoo (well)....” Tsukune attempted to answer, when he heard Lou draw his attention.
“Answer’s here Couz’.” Lou aided Tsukune by showing him the screen that had his notes. His kind gesture was rewarded with a piece of chalk to his head. “Yeow!”
“You shouldn’t be playing with that laptop of yours during class, McCorray-san.” Liliko scolded, it caused the other students in class to chuckle as she furrowed her eyebrows behind her glasses. “The semester finals ARE coming soon. We’re wrapping up this semester so everyone should study hard to be prepared.”
‘Waaaah!’ Tsukune screamed in his head. He had completely forgotten about the semester finals.
Liliko then approached Lou’s desk. “Like it or not, I will have to take that laptop away from you.”
“There’s no need! There’s no need!” Lou defended. “I was taking notes, see!” Lou showed the math teacher his notes, and then he noticed that he was holding it upside down. “Wait a second, holdin’ it wrong.” He soon corrected his mistake before showing the screen to the teacher once more. “See! Notes- Why’s everyone looking at me like that?”
The entire class room was filled with a menacing atmosphere of jealousy and hatred towards the American who was blessed with such an advanced computer in his possession. “What, is it this thing? Oh come on people! I’ve been using this thing in class for how long now?!”
“You want me to help you with math?!” Moka asked as the trio met outside the classroom buildings at during the lunch period.
“Onegai (please)!” Tsukune bowed and begged. “Due to all the life threatening events, I completely forgot about studying! Math is a complete mystery to me now! Tasukete (help me)! Teach me how to study!”
“And they say that Asians were completely obsessed with math.” Lou chuckled as he joked.
Moka thought the proposal over in her mind before she answered. “Zettai (sure)! I’ll help in anyway I can!” The vampire smiled, warming Tsukune’s heart and soul. Then Moka began to blush and shift nervously. “If...if you want, you can come to my room to study.”
Tsukune blushed madly from the mere thought. “I don’t get it.” Lou scratched his head. “He’s just going up there for a little study time with yah. What, you feel more comfortable if I was there as well?” Moka’s face soon became that of crimson. “What?”
“N-nothing really!” Moka replied, hiding her embarrassment from the mere thought of not just Tsukune, but Lou being in her dorm room as well. She then turned to face Tsukune. “I’ll do my best to help Tsukune.”
Tsukune soon found himself leaning against the wall with Moka standing before him. “M-Moka-san..?”
“I’ll work hard to help you, dakara (because)...” Moka blushed as her face inched towards Tsukune’s own. “You let me suck on your blood and everything!” She stated just before she took a bite into Tsukune’s neck, the force of which was strong enough for his own skull to crack the wall behind him.
“There she goes again....” Lou groaned, rubbing the bridge of his nose.
“Chotto matte (hey wait)!”Kurumu exclaimed as she approached the trio, her sudden appearance caused Tsukune and Moka to move away from each other from sheer surprise. “I heard everything! Sine, cosign, tangent. In 794 AD, Heiankyou was made capital of Japan. If it’s studying, you should do it with me Tsukune-kun!” The succubus exclaimed just before a wash bin landed atop of her head.
“As if a cow like you would even KNOW how to study ~Desu!” Yukari countered before facing Tsukune. “When it comes to studying, it’s my specialty! E=MC^2; pxV = n R T! Your chances of success are greater if you study with me ~Desu!”
“The offer’s good and all for Couz’ here.” Lou began. “But what’s with the sudden interest?”
“If I helped a future in-law, it will increase my chances with a three some with my two lovers ~Desu!” Yukari squealed from the mere thought.
“Why am I not surprised...?” Lou lightly tapped his forehead.
“Haroo (hello).” Mizore greeted after she revealed herself from a nearby tree located behind both Kurumu and Yukari who were currently recovering from such a shock and surprise. “I haven’t been to school for a while, so can I study with you guys?”
“Seriously, you gotta stop doing that Snow White.” Lou complained.
“I’m happy that everyone is so willing to help me study,” Tsukune thanked. “But it’s Moka-san that-”
“Hai! It’s best that we all study together!” Moka suggested.
“Like a study group.” Lou added.
“Nani?!” Tsukune gasped in surprise.
“So lets go to the club after school and study!” Moka suggested. The other girls and Lou agreed, much to Tsukune’s chagrin.
At the class room that was also used as the Newspaper Club meeting room after school, Yukari was giving a lecture on tangents and other such mathematical formulas for calculus. Both the cousins and Moka were listening intensely while Lou jotted down additional notes into his lap top. Kurumu was completely lost as her mind was unable to process the information given to her and Mizore simply wrote Tsukune’s name over and over again in her notebook.
“How was it?” Moka asked Tsukune just after Yukari’s lecture and giving him her notebook. “Were you able to understand it?”
“Hai!” Tsukune answered. “As expected from Moka-san, your teaching is great!” Moka could only blush from the compliment.
“Iie, don’t say that!”
“Smooth one, Couz’. Smooth.” Lou noted as both Tsukune and Moka began to stare at each other.
“Moh (geez)!” Kurumu complained. “The two of you are staring at each other again!” The succubus then embraced Tsukune. “I really don’t understand it!”
“Sore dewa (then),” Mizore asked. “What’s the difference between ‘differentiation and integration’ and ‘addition and subtraction’?” Yukari had become shocked by the yuki onna’s question. Lou simply slapped his forehead, loud enough for everyone within ear shot to cringe.
“But seriously,” Tsukune began after he recovered from the slap sound Lou’s head made. “Moka-san’s notebook is easy to understand. Your writing is beautiful, the points are arranged neatly and it makes it easy to understand!”
“Yeah, but I hear that you gotta write ‘em fast once you get into college.” Lou commented.
“Hazukashii (I’m embarrassed).” Moka blushed. “Ara (oh), then let me write a copy for you!”
“I’d feel bad if you did all of that extra work for me.” Tsukune replied. “I could just photocopy-”
“Good luck getting the teachers to let yah do that.” Lou warned.
“Ara, sou ka (I see).” Tsukune noted before turning back to Moka.
“I’ll work hard for your sake, Tsukune!” Moka smiled.
“Moka-san.”
“Tsukune.”
“Moka-san.”
“Tsukune.”
“Moka-s an.”
“Tsukune.”
“Moka-san.”
“Tsukune.”
“Moka-san.”
“Tsu kune.”
“Moka-san.”
“Tsukune.”
“Moka-san.”
“Tsukune.”
“M oka-san.”
“Tsukune.”
“Alright! Enough with the staring contest already!” Lou waved a hand in between Tsukune and Moka, breaking their mutual concentration upon each other. “There’s a very fine line between ‘cute’ and ‘annoying’!”
The final bell signaled the end of all club activities one final time as the cousins and Moka arrived at the shoe lockers to switch to outdoor shoes for the commute back to the Student Dormitory.
Tsukune stretched his arms. “Today I studied so hard that I’m exhausted!”
“You really think that stuff ends with the last bell?” Lou raised an eyebrow. “Why do you think they send out ‘homework’ for?”
“Don’t worry Tsukune, I’ll make sure that I’ll have that copy for you!” Moka smiled, then she slowly approached Tsukune, with the all too familiar look in her eyes. “Onegai (please)....”
“Here she goes again.” Lou groaned as Moka’s lips approached Tsukune’s neck.
“Hold it right there!” The three turned to see Liliko standing some distance beside them. “What were you two about to do?!”
“Amateur blood transfusion?” Lou joked.
“Liliko-sensei!” Both Tsukune and Moka exclaimed in surprise.
“Tsukune-kun, you silly boy.” The math teacher approached Tsukune’s location. “This isn’t the time to be necking with girls.”
“‘necking’,” Lou laughed in English. “‘Necking’ she calls it, haha!”
“You know it’s not nice to talk about someone else behind their backs,” Liliko lectured in English. “Especially in another language, McCorray-san.”
Lou’s jaw simply hung in the air. “She can speak English too!?”
Liliko then turned back to Tsukune. “You were unable to keep up in class, have you? This concerns your sensei, you know.” She then turned to Moka. “And Moka-san is the cause of that, isn’t it? After what I just saw, I know fully well as to why Tsukune-kun is unable to pay attention in class!”
“Nani?” Moka asked.
“Akashiya Moka-san, is it not true that Tsukune-kun is unable to keep up with his studies because of you?” Liliko accused, causing Moka to hold a look of shock.
“Iie! It’s not like that at all!” Tsukune countered. “She was just helping with my studies! We even have ourselves a study group with our friends at club-”
“Calm down, Tsukune-kun.” The math teacher interrupted. “Even if you DID try to study with your girlfriend and your other friends, you would be tempted and mess around with each other and not learn anything, just like a moment ago, seikaku (correct)? Your girlfriend can’t help you with this matter.”
Moka looked down, the idea of causing Tsukune to be held back growing in her mind. “Trust me Teach, that ain’t the sole problem.” Lou defended for Moka.
“Regardless, if its study you want, then sensei will give it to you.” Liliko then took Tsukune’s head and held them against her breasts. The action caused Moka to gasp and Lou to rub the bridge of his nose. “Come to the Remedial Room after school tomorrow, Tsukune-kun. I’ll give you special after school lessons. Your studies will be FAR more fruitful than with your girlfriend.” She then pulled Tsukune face upwards. “Studying is a WONDERFUL thing, Tsukune-kun. That’s just one of the MANY things I will teach you, Tsukune-kun.”
Moka looked on with a worried look to her face. “THAT, ladies and gentlemen, is grown up Pamela.” Lou then groaned.
The next day at the Newspaper Club meeting, Tsukune and Lou told the other members what had occurred yesterday.
“Sou na (no way)!” Kurumu exclaimed in disbelief. “You’re taking Liliko-sensei’s after school lessons?!”
Tsukune sighed before he replied. “Before I knew it, I was sucked into it.”
“You should see how Teach ‘persuaded’ him.” Lou chuckled.
“That’s too bad.” Kurumu put her hands upon her hips. “From what I’ve heard, she’s always like that.”
“Kurumu-chan?” Tsukune asked.
“From my forth period class, she’s really passionate about teaching. Demo (but), she’s really the type to have a one-track mind and can’t really think of anything else. Because of that, she can go overboard with everything.” Kurumu explained, to which Tsukune gulped. “And yet, just because she has big boobs she gets the attention of all the other boys! It’s pissing me off!”
“Is that all?!” Lou scolded. Unknown to the rest of the group, both Moka and Mizore looked down at their own chests. One looked on with a worried expression while the other was satisfied. Both had a blush upon their cheeks.
“Are you jealous of your sensei’s boobies? Frustrated because the ones you are so proud of lost to someone else ~Desu?” Yukari teased. “That’s SO childish ~Desu!”
“Yukari-chaaan, you’re the one who’s the child here, tadashii?” Kurumu teased back as she patted against the little witch’s chest. “Look how flat-chested you are!”
“It’s better then those useless behemoths ~Desu!”
“Yukari no baka! My breasts are popular not just for their size, but for their softness!”
“How naive! Mine are prized for their youthfulness and supple smallness! It’s my selling point ~Desu!”
“They’re still flat!”
“There they go again.” Lou groaned.
“Tsukune, rather then going to remedial classes this summer, it’s better if you worked hard right now.” Moka advised.
“Oh right!” Lou snapped his fingers. “This place DOES have Summer Vacation! Though then again, it’s a bit short for my tastes.”
“Hai, if you get less than 50 on the finals, you will have to go to summer classes during the vacation period ~Desu!” Yukari warned before going back to arguing with Kurumu, causing Lou to shake his head.
“I completely forgot about that!” Tsukune realized as his mind drifted off into a fantasy of all the girls in the club wearing swim suits. He then turned back to the vampire. “Moka-san! I’ll work hard to get good grades! After that, we’ll have fun during the summer!”
“Hai!” Kurumu then embraced Tsukune. “Let’s play some DANGEROUS games then!”
“Moka-san and Lou-kun will have a sweet and sour prepubescent experience with me ~Desu!” Yukari hugged Lou’s arm.
“Personal space, if you don’t mind?” Lou asked of Yukari.
“Sumimasen (excuse me)!” Tsukune called out as both he and Lou stood before the Remedial Room. “This is Aono Tsukune from Class 1-3. I’m here for Remedial Classes.”
“I still can’t believe you gotta SAY all those things before entering.” Lou shook his head.
“It’s only proper.” Tsukune stated before returning back to the door. “Hairikomu (I’m coming in)!” He slid open the door to reveal a disturbing sight.
Before the cousins was rows upon rows of creepy looking candles, skulls, and satin cloth lining the table tops and hung in the air. Standing in the middle of the room was Liliko who wore a rather revealing leather two-piece outfit and fishnet stockings. In her hand was a leather whip. “I’ve been waiting for you, Tsukune-kun.”
“WHAT THE FUCK?!” Lou exclaimed.
“Li-Liliko-sensei?! What are you doing wearing that?!” Tsukune exclaimed as he attempted to keep in check a rather violent nose bleed.
“Ara (oh)? I wore this to help you concentrate on your studies.”
“Who would?!” Tsukune exclaimed. “It’ll just cause me to have weird thoughts in my head!”
“I second that motion!” Lou agreed.
“This is really weird sensei! What kind of things are you really into?! Just what are you trying to-” Tsukune did not complete even the though as he felt a sudden stink upon his cheek.
“Yeouch!” Lou yelped as Liliko pulled back on the whip.
“Hen (weird)? What could possibly be weird?” The math teacher lectured. “In education, sensei is your leader who demands respect and the students are their servants.”
“Liliko-sensei, yamete (stop it)!” Tsukune begged.
“No offense Couz’, but I’m gettin’ the FUCK outta here!” Lou turned to exit the room, but then he found that a strange, snake-like tail with a strange bulb at the end had slid the door closed. “Uh oh.....” Lou turned back to see that Liliko turned into a strange monestrous form that replaced her lower torso with such a large, reptilian tail.
“My after school lessons are very strict! But they’re all for your own good, Tsukune-kun.” Liliko adjusted her glasses. “McCorray-san can benefit from them as well. Isn’t education wonderful?”
Both cousins yelled out in terror.
Days have past since the start of the Cousin’s special ‘tutoring’ and their near absence with club-related activities after class.
“Onegai (please) Yukari-chan, help me study!” Kurumu begged.
“Iie, not gonna happen ~Desu!” Yukari replied. However the succubus’ reaction to such a denial was to tie the little witch up. “Kyaa! What are you doing to me ~Desu?!”
“You’re gonna help me prepare for the test weather you like it or not! I am NOT going to spend summer vacation doing make up work!” Kurumu declared.
“It’s too late for you Kurumu-chan! You don’t stand a chance ~Desu!” Yukari countered just before Kurumu accidentally bumped into someone. When she looked up, it was Tsukune.
“Ara, it’s Tsukune-kun and Lou-” The succubus was interrupted when she saw both Tsukune and the American muttered, almost chanted, mathematical formulas.
“Nani?” Kurumu wondered out loud. “Why are they acting so weird?”
“They’re chanting mathematical formulas ~Desu!” Yukari declared. “Even advanced, difficult ones we haven’t learned yet in class ~Desu!”
“Yahuu!” Kurumu exclaimed in joy as she jumped at Tsukune. “Help me study too- Kya!” All her hands and face touched was the ground as she fell forward, Yukari’s ‘leash’ still in the palm of her hands.
The little witch was hearing something rather distinct from Lou’s tapping against his book bag. It almost sounded like morse code. “SOS-u ~Desu?” Yukari noted out loud.
Later on in the hallway, Moka encountered the cousins on the way to class. “Tsukune? Lou?” She called out for a reply. All she received was the same chanting of mathematical formulas. “Ano....Tsukune? Despite Liliko-sensei’s words, I still wanted to help you, since you always helped me with everything. Because of that and Lou, every day here has been fun.”
The cousins continued to chant the formulas when Moka showed Tsukune the notebook. “Koko (here), I copied my notes into a kind of strategy guide for the math final. I hope that it would be helpful to you in passing the semester finals. I would like you to use these notes.” The vampire offered the notebook, but Tsukune was unable to reach out for the object. “Tsukune? Daijoobu (are you alright)? Lou?”
“And just what ARE you doing Moka-san?” Liliko snatched the notebook from Moka’s hands.
“Liliko-sensei!” Moka was surprised from the math teacher’s sudden appearance as Liliko thumbed through the note book with disgust.
“Why won’t you stop your meddling? It’s so shameful that you must tempt Tsukune-kun with such rubbish as this!” Liliko then thrown the notebook at the vampire’s head, nearly knocking her over as she yelped more in surprise than in pain. She then motioned the cousins to follow her. “Come Tsukune-kun, McCorray-san, you both have much study to do.”
It was only after a few paces away did the math teacher notice that Lou did not follow. She looked over her shoulder to see that the American still stood where he was but a moment ago. “Come, McCorray-san, you shouldn’t disobey your sensei.” She then dragged Lou away, all the while he tapped upon his book bag in a specific pattern.
The vampire just stood there shocked and confuse, absorbing what had transpired before her just as Yukari and Kurumu arrived just a few minutes after Liliko lead the cousins away.
“Moka-san! There’s something going on ~Desu!” Yukari reported.
“Hai! They were acting very strangely!” Kurumu added.
“Tsukune and Lou just left with Liliko-sensei, do you think that she- Eetoo (um)....why are you tied like that Yukari-chan?” Moka asked as she pointed at Yukari, who was still enslaved by Kurumu’s rope.
At the Remedial Room turned Torture Chamber, Liliko kept a close eye upon the studies of both Tsukune and Lou. “Well now, let’s continue our studies!” She grinned.
“Mo....” Liliko then turned towards Tsukune who was mentally attempting to free himself. “Moka.....Moka....san...” Tsukune soon felt the sting of the whip against his face just before he fell sideways from the impact and falling into Lou, causing the cousins to fall down onto the floor.
“What a naughty boy! Didn’t I tell you to forget that girl!” Liliko scorned as she approached Tsukune, slowly transforming herself into her monster form. “All you must do is listen to sensei and shut out everything else!”
Lou then groaned as he rubbed his head and picked himself off the floor. “Ugh, what happened? Where am- oh no!” The American looked around, now realizing that he was in the Remedial Room with the math teacher. “No! No! No! No! No! No! No!” He turned and saw that Liliko was in her monster form, the bulb at the end of her tail opening up. “Oh fuck, not again!”
Lou’s escape attempt ended in failure once again as the strange bulb wrapped itself around the American’s skull and flashes of energy were being pumped through his skull. It caused so much pain that Lou could not help but scream in horrific agony. Liliko then slithered her way towards Tsukune, caressing his cheeks before slapping him. “Now I will have to give you ‘special lessons’ to get that girl out of your head once again, but first I have to put your cousin back into the proper mindset.”
“Damare (stop it)!” Moka then gasped as Kurumu, Yukari, and herself witnessed the sight of the converted torture chamber.
“G-g-g-g-g-g-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-t-t-t-t-t-t m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e t-t-t-t-t-t-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-e-e-e-e-e f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-u-u-u-u-u-u-u-u-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-k-k-k-k-k-k o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-u-u-u-u-u-u-u-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e !” Lou could feel Liliko’s knowledge pumped into his brain with such speed and data that his brain might explode from the information alone.
“Kowai (scary) ~Desu!” Yukari squeaked from the display of wanton displays of dominance. Kurumu, however, began formulating ideas from what laid before her.
“Nani-ga (what is this)? What are you doing to them?!” Moka exclaimed.
“Interfering again, Moka-san? And this time you brought friends? How despicable!” Liliko then detached the bulb from Lou’s head and faced the three monster girls, freeing him from her control and allowed him to regain his senses.
Lou then attempted to rescue his cousin from Liliko’s clutches, taking advantage of her misplaced attention as he grabbed Tsukune’s shoulders and ran towards the door, only to find Liliko blocking the exit. “And where do you think you’re going?!”
“Damn! You’re fast for someone who has no legs- Eep!” Lou barely dodged a whip strike from Liliko.
“Be careful ~Desu!” Yukari cried out. “Liliko-sensei’s a Lamina ~Desu!”
“And that helps us out how- ACK!” The cousins then found themselves smashed into the wall by the Lamina’s tail. “GAUGH!”
“How dare you treat my Destined One like- KYA!” Kurumu barely dodge a tail stab from Liliko before she reverted to her true monster form.
“Kurumu-chan, let me go ~Desu!” Yukari yelled. “I can use my magic on her ~Desu!”
“Such naughty childre- Where did you come from?!” The Lamia turned behind her after hearing the sound of shifting ceiling panels to find Mizore appear. She jumped down and landed next to the cousins.
“Are you two alright?” Mizore asked as she knealed beside them.
“Easy squeazy lemon pleasy....” Lou asked in a daze, causing the yuki onna to raise an eyebrow.
“Stop interfering with my students!” Liliko did a tail swipe aimed at Mizore’s head, but missed as she jumped away.
“A teacher such as yourself has no right to treat students like that.” Mizore threatened just before she conjured her ice claws.
“Don’t count me out just yet!” Kurumu threatened as her finger nails lengthened into razor sharp claws.
“Kurumu-chan!” Yukari complained just as the Lamina performed a full three hundred and sixty degree tail swipe against the monster girls, forcing them to keep their distance.
“Such bothersome children!” Liliko scorned, cracking her whip as a display of intimidation. Undeterred, Mizore and Kurumu leaped towards the Lamina with their claws bared, only to miss when the math teacher quickly moved out of the way.
The Lamina’s attention directed away for the moment, Moka took the initiative and dashed towards the cousins. Her attempt at rescue failed as the bulb slammed into her stomach, nearly knocked her out and forced the notebook free from her grasp. It skidded across the floor until it stopped just short of Tsukune’s hand. He felt the book near him and picked it up, looking at the familiar hand writing as the battle continued around his cousin and himself. Then he read the note upon the end of the page from Moka that gave him encouragement to study and succeed in the test.
He found himself free of the Lamina’s influence and was about to rush towards Moka’s aid when he found that his cousin still had a firm grip upon his arm. He turned and tried to shake Lou back to the waking world. “Lou-kun! Okimasu (wake up)! Okimasu!”
“St-op i-t! You-re gon-na ma-ke m-e ba-rf!” Lou warned.
Liliko used the opened bulb to slam Moka into the wall. “Moka-san!” The other monster girls exclaimed.
“Time for your punishment, Akashiya Moka- Nani?” Liliko then spied the two cousins prying away one of the petals of the bulb from the vampire’s body, particularly the one covering the rosario. “How dare the two of you disobey your sensei!”
“Yah know what time it is?” Lou yelled back over his shoulder in between grunts. “It’s Xena time! Let ‘em rip Couz’!” Tsukune pried free the rosario, unleashing Moka’s other self as the room flooded with supernatural aura of a released vampire.
“What is this?!” Liliko exclaimed as she felt the energy of the aura flow up through her tail like electricity as Moka’s hair turned from pink to silver, eyes from green to bright crimson. The vampire had taken a good hold of the bulb. “How dare you! How dare you betray me! You low life stu-”
The other moka silenced the Lamina as she swung Liliko against the wall behind her like a ball-and-chain, then slammed the math teacher to the wall upon her left, then the ceiling and finally to the floor. “Learn your place.”
“Wh-why did you knock us out as well.....?” Lou asked in a daze as the other Moka soon learned that she had also harmed her outer self’s classmates with the Lamina’s body. Kurumu fell from her crater upon the right side of the room, Tsukune was still plastered to the wall that was behind the other Moka, both Lou and Yukari were knocked out of the room, and Mizore was seeing stars even though her face was currently making out with the floor. Each and every one if their limbs twitched in pain.
The silver haired vampire simply whistled innocently.
After several crash study groups with the sealed vampire once it was learned by both Tsukune and Lou that the knowledge shoved into their minds by Liliko was lost, the day of the finals had arrived for Japanese, Math, English, Science and History. Sweat flowed from the pores of the skins of students who were remote from anything confident of their own academic studies as they faced test after test, grabbed at any information they could mentally salvage to answer the questions presented before them. Each one felt deep within their hearts that failure was not a sacrifice worth their summer vacation.
Soon enough, the day had past and the finals were finally over. All that remained was to await the test results of the finals the following day. The cousins and the vampire walked down the pathway leading back to the Student Dormitory.
“How did you feel that you did?” Moka asked Tsukune and Lou.
“I don’t know.” Tsukune shrugged. “I did the best that I could.”
“We ALL did, Couz’.” Lou patted his cousin on his back to give him confidence, which was obviously failing. “Anyway, thanks for helping us out Pinkie. Especially Tsukune here, he needed it A LOT more then I did in Math and ESPECIALLY in Japanese for moi.”
“I-it’s nothing!” Moka blushed in her modesty.
“Sore dewa (well), whatever the results, it was worth spending the last few days with you Moka-san.” The vampire’s blush deepened. “Arigato (thank you), for not giving up on me, for the both of us, even at the very last moment. You’re a life saver.”
Moka’s eyes soon weld up in tears from the words. “Moka?” Tsukune asked, just before the vampire jumped into his arms.
“Tsukune!” Moka yelled in joy as the two crashed into the ground.
“Hey! Don’t slam him into the ground like that!”
The results for the finals were distributed to the other students. Several passed with flying colors, many barely passed the bare minimum, and several others must be held back to make up for their failed scores.
“UWAAAAH! I don’t want to go to summer classes!” Kurumu wailed as she shunned the Fourty-Four score of her test sheet.
“And I even tutored her personally ~Desu.” Yukari sighed with her One Hundred score test sheet. Mizore barely past with only Fifty-six.
Earlier the next morning, Tsukune and Lou were called to the Faculty Offices from one of the teachers. All that was relayed to the cousins was that there was an emergency call from the United States. They wondered as to what this call entailed.
Just outside and barely within hearing range, the members of the Newspaper Club had begun to eavesdrop upon the phone call. Listening intensely.
“Here you go.” One of the teachers, a Biology Teacher, handed the phone to Lou who then gestured Tsukune to come closer so that both of them could hear.
“Moshi Moshi?” Tsukune asked. Both could hear someone holding back tears.
“Mom, what happened?” Lou asked.
“Auntie?” Tsukune inquired. Both attempted to listen to the words spoken in between sobs.
“Mom, please slow down! What’s going on? Why are you-” Lou paused as he finally heard the words that were being conveyed. His eyes and those of his cousin had widen with shock and horror. Tsukune moved away from the receiver just far enough to find something to keep himself balanced with his arms, the tears beginning to build at the corner of his eyes.
Lou simply collapsed to the floor with the phone receiver still clutched to his chest. The other teachers rushed to his aid. “McCorray-san, daijoobu (are you okay)?”
“No....good god, no!” Lou gasped, barely able to breath. “It can’t be true! It’s not possible! IT’S FUCKING IMPOSSIBLE!” The American yelled, tears flowing down his face. “He was too young! He was just a baby!”
“D-Danny-s-s-san....!” Tsukune could barely keep himself up, the tears pulling him ever downwards as if they were lead. “Naze (why)?!”
“Please Danny! Please come back!” Lou cried out in pain, his body now contorted into the fetal position, still clutching the telephone receiver as he lied upon the floor. “Please god! Please bring him back! Don’t take him away! It wasn’t his time! It wasn’t his fucking time! Why!? Why did he have to go?! They said that he was fine! He was fine! They said there was nothing wrong! DANNY!!! NO! NO! NO! PLEASE GOD, NO! NOOOO!!”
Later on, the Newspaper Club learned what had caused the cousins such grief: Daniel McCorray, youngest of fraternal triplets, had died.
Now I know many of you are all wondering what is with the chapter spamming? Well, something occured this week that has shaken my confidence in even considering to complete this fanfiction. On Tuesday, the Twenty-Second of December, my dad died. I simply couldn't find myself to accept that he was gone at first and then when I remembered that I had to do this one final thing for my dad on the computer for his investments if anything should happen to him, I broke down and cried.
Subscribing to internet access is by no means cheap, and with a major chunk of my family's income now gone and the possibility of having to fight for whatever money from companies and organizations who would prefer to keep that money from my family, I may not be able to access the internet for a long time to come. Thus I had to upload all the chapters I could complete within what time I felt I had left, despite the assurances of relatives and siblings. I am simply anticipating the fact that I won't be able to update any of my fanfiction works for the forseeable future.
He may have his faults, but for the twenty-six years of my life he was a husband and father without equal. Those that survived must morn with great difficulty and look forward, with greater challenges before them. Yet we are what is left of him, his legacy. His body and soul. We must live, thrive, and feel for he cannot any more. May the angels in heaven welcome him and accept him with open arms.
Rest in peace, dad.
