"Rika...?"

"Shizuka...?"

The two old friends stared at each other with confusion running through their faces the more the atmosphere in the room became quieter and increasingly more awkward. Takashi, Rei and Saeko all stared at the purple haired woman with blank expressions as they did not understand what was supposed to be happening, Takashi assumed that the woman was supposed to be using Saya as her bait whilst they were around each other, however Takashi sensed that the idea had long gone out of the window.

Confusion spread onto Saya also as she wasn't sure what was supposed to happen from here, she expected to be held for ransom by the woman who held her in a headlock. Rei was left watching the enemy in-front of her friends and keeping her eye on her friends as she wasn't sure what was supposed to be happening, she assumed the yellow haired nurse knew the woman opposite them.

"I thought... for sure, that you would be long gone by... now..."

The surprised tone coming from the dark purple haired woman surprised Takashi ,Rei ,Saya and Saeko as they did not know what truly was going on at this very moment. Shizuka's expression was enough to tell her students that she knew full well who the person in-front of them was.

Takashi wondered whether or not, Shizuka had history with the person in-front of them? Takashi knew he would find out soon enough.

"Well I barely survived... You never picked up on my calls to check if you were alright..." The purple haired woman's grip began to slip as her arm fell to her sides as Saya Takagi was finally able to be free of her grasp.

'Oh they have history indeed... I wonder if this is the same woman that Shizuka was on the phone with, all that time ago?'

Takashi's mind wandered back to a previous phone call that he had heard about from his friends, Shizuka seemed to of talked to one of her friends just after this all began.

"Well I'm glad you are alright!"

The busty nurse's expression quickly changed from a shocked expression to a happy one as she quickly launched herself on the purple woman, hugging her at electric speed that made Takashi feel briefly shocked. Takashi's suspicions had been confirmed for the young lad as he couldn't find any words to muster as he watched on.

The tanned woman giggled as she enjoyed the hug from her blonde friend, the students stood behind them, could only respond by wearing shocked expressions on their faces as they continued to watch. Saya was caught off guard by the woman who captured her, hugging the nurse she had become good friends with, it made the the girl wonder what their connections were.

"Me too! I thought you would become one of them, for sure!"

The two ladies after a few moments of enjoying each other's presences, released each other whilst wearing warm smiles on their faces, the two were simply happy with being reunited, after all, they were best friends. Although Shizuka could not help but be surprised to see her purpled haired friend, otherwise known as 'Rika', the busty nurse considered the possibility that Rika would of gotten out of the city by now.

It didn't take much longer to notice that she was indeed wrong.

Letting out a sigh, Saeko and Rei let out a breath as they gathered that Rika was not here to hurt them, luckily. Takashi on the other hand, still had his doubts about older woman in-front of him, he could tell by her figure that she was well trained, he knew she could wipe the floor with him if he wasn't careful, for now, the teenage boy remained on guard.
