Now Ishi found himself heading for the station that he personally disliked the most when going on the field trip as a first year. This location being the part where people got to enjoy a few fun games. He had chosen to delay going here as long as he could, but obligations meant that it wasn't going to last forever. So taking care of Chinae next was his next decision.

The reason why he chose to save Rinse for last? Well, it was simple. He was the most confident that she could handle things no matter what happened. After all, her job as an idol should've prepared her to be ready for unexpected things. In fact, that was why he was doing Chinae second-to-last. The other girl was also an idol, even if in secret. However, he also came to the realization that perhaps his leadership skills could use some improvement. Which is why he was heading to the games first.

As he approached the area, there were many targets lining up in a row. The whizzing of arrows filled his ears as he came up to Chinae, who was using one of the bows. She shot one out, which missed the bullseye by a good five meters as she aimed way too high.

"Tsk." Were she not with a bunch of students, in which she was forced to maintain a respectful manner. Chinae certainly had much harsher words to say about the activity she was trying. "How does anyone hit anything with this stupid bow?"

"You're starting to sound like Ryugi." He commented. That had definitely been a line he had heard before.

"Don't compare me to someone like her." She was offended that the idea those two could be even seen as similar. No one would ever believe that a gyaru and a dark loner had anything in common.

"It's just in the attitude." He beckoned her to hand over the bow. She did and he charged up a shot as he continued to explain himself. "I take it the two of you aren't the outdoorsy type." Ishi let off his shot. A perfect bullseye.

"Most of us girls aren't." She replied, referring to Rinse and Youna as well. "Also nice shot, I didn't know you were into this kind of stuff."

"I guess I'm more of a natural." He even got an offer from the school's archery club to join. Unsurprisingly, Ishi declined since he wasn't interested in competition against others. "I could even shoot an apple off of your head."

"Maybe I should be doing that to you." Judging by her terrible aim, it was more likely she'd end his life with a head shot before heading the apple. Then again, that girl probably couldn't even hit the broadside of a barn, let alone target his body.

"It's really not that hard." Ishi handed her back the bow, encouraging her to try it one more time. Chinae took the weapon and assumed her stance again. Just as she was getting started, he already had words of criticism.

"You need to stand a little more proper than that." He informed her, using his hands to reposition her body.

"Who said you could touch me?" She glared at him as he ran his hands over her arms.

"I'm just instructing you." He wasn't afraid of the silent threat. First because unless he did something really inappropriate, she wouldn't dare hit him in front of the others. The second reason being that he saw no issues with showing her this in this manner. "Now, pull back the arrow." Ishi commanded her to do so, all the while explaining what should be done during this time.

She did as he asked her, all the while he continued to touch her in order to make her posture proper. It was a strange feeling for her, despite already getting as close as she did to him during their so-called 'date'. When he was the one initiating the contact, Chinae felt a lot weaker in the legs compared to when she did. Perhaps it was because this was coming from Ishi Hirose. A boy that no one would've ever thought would get close to a girl. Yet here he was, without a single bit of tension in his muscles. "Don't grip too tightly, then release." She listened to his words and took her shot. "Follow through."
