~ALL IS FAIR IN FLAME HAZE AND MYSTES~

Chapter 1: no partner?!

Shana is walking down to school together with Yuji Sakai, the mystes that has the reiji maigoinside him. Both of them are just silent as they walk, Yuji showing Shana few smiles and Shana blush slightly but doesn't show it towards Yuji. She has been in love with Yuji, but doesn't have the courage to tell him face to face. When they arrived at the school gate, they saw Kazumi Yoshida waiting for them. Kazumi is also in love with Yuji, making her Shana's rival. But unlike Shana, she expresses her love to Yuji by making him lunch every day or by just taking care of him. Kazumi bowed before them as both Shana and Yuji approached her. "Good morning Sakai-kun, Shana-chan." Said kazumi cheerfully. Yuji showed Kazumi a smile and said "morning Yoshida-san. Let's go?" both girls nodded and they went towards their class.

During class, their teacher assigned all the students into pairs for their reporting. Unfortunately, having an odd number of students in their class, Shana didn't got a partner. She raised her hand stood up. "sir, why don't I have a partner?" asked Shana in a nice way while looking around the class and seeing all have partners. She looked at everyone and focused her eyes on both Yuji and Kazumi which are partners. She then looked back at her teacher and gave him an evil glare and frowned. Her teacher sweat drop and wiped it away with a handkerchief and pretended to smile. "now, now Hirai calm down ok? This is just temporary, tomorrow you will then have you partner so don't go glaring at me like that." her teacher said in a half-scared tone of voice. Shana just sigh and sat down, mumbling some curses towards her teacher.

At lunch break, Shana and the gang were eating altogether. Shana was still frustrated in what their teacher announced to them and just took big bites at her melon bread. Yuji just kept on calming Shana down so that she won't get choked with her lunch. "hmph!! If I can just.. ARGH!!!" said Shana angrily in between bites of her food. Her friends just laughed at what Shana's been acting and Yuji's attempt to calm the angry Shana. Kazumi tugged Yuji's shirt to get his attention. "Sakai-un, I think we should meet after school to discuss about our report." Kazumi said shyly. Yuji just smiled and said " sure Yoshida-san, we can meet outside the school and have our research at my house okay?" kazumi happily agreed in what Yuji planned and continued eating. But Shana on the other hand become more frustrated, not because of being alone in her report but because Kazumi and Yuji are going to have their research at Yuji's house.

Meanwhile outside the school, a guy was standing in front of the gate and looked at the windows from a distance. "tomorrow I'll see you again, my nietono shana"
