Gura pov: Now that we can leave the council room again, I didn't want to be cooped up, so I decided that Watson and I should just go out and hang out for a little while.
"Amelia, where should we go?" I asked
"Hic, I kind of want to walk around town," Amelia hiccuped.
"Then let's do it," I said.
We left the council room and just walked into town, not really knowing what we'd do. There was a woman running away from something; she wasn't paying attention and bumped into me.
"Eeeeeeeeeeeek!" She screeched
"What!?" I yelled
"Y-you're a shark girl!" The woman said it in fear.
"Yeah, what's wrong with that?" Amelia asked
"Eeeeek, a blonde woman!" The purple-haired maid yelled
"Stop..." I said
"Y-you can talk!" The woman screamed.
"Are you sheltered?" I questioned
"No, I'm Minato Aqua!" She replied
"She's a fucking moron." Amelia groaned
"No, I'm Aqua!" She said it again.
"She does look like an onion," I laughed.
"Hey, you are just like Choco-sensei," Aqua said as she pointed at Watson.
"Wait, you know Choco-sensei, so you'd be our senpai," Amelia said.
"I guess?" Aqua-senpai said
"Everything confuses this woman," I sighed.
"I'm scared of most things," Aqua-senpai said.
"Why?" Amelia asks
"I only weigh 44.5 kg. I'm a fragile woman. Everything can kill me." Aqua-senpai said
"Okay, so why were you running Aqua-Senpai?" I asked
"I saw a really big man and got scared; also, I'm trying to find Shion," Aqua-senpai said.
"Shion-senpai?" I said
"Do you know her!?" Aqua-senpai asked
"Not really, I've heard of her; she's in the mystical forest, correct?" I said
"Yeah, that's right!" Aqua-senpai said
"Well, we can take you there," I said.
"You can!?" Aqua-senpai shouted
"Yes, but don't shout, Senpai." I sighed
"Gura, are you sure we can do this?" Amelia asked
"Uhhhh... no," I said.
"We should probably tell Mumei we are going," Amelia said.
"No, she'll be fine with it; no harm will be done," I told her.
"So why are you a shark girl?" Aqua-senpai asked
"I don't know." I said, "I was born this way."
"Interesting..." Aqua-senpai said
"Why is this the odd part?" I asked
"Well, sharks can't talk," Aqua told me.
"Well, I clearly am a talking shark," I said.
"Maybe I'll have Choco-sensei examine you!" Aqua-senpai said
"Yeah, I'd rather you not," I said.
"But you're an enigma!" Aqua-senpai said
"That is a big word," I chuckled.
"Enigma isn't that big of a word!" Aqua-senpai yelled
"We just assumed that you wouldn't know a word like that because you are an onion," Amelia said.
"No, I'm a human!" She said
Luckily she didn't know the secondary meaning of onion; if she did, she would be extremely mad at us, but to be fair, we are being kind of rude to a woman we just met; we probably should be more tolerable and not just insult her on the spot.
"Let's go to the mystical forest then," Amelia said.
"We need to hurry up though, since Shion-senpai could always move," I said.
"Well, Shion is not the type of woman to really move around." Aqua-senpai said
"Eh?" I said.
"Shion is the type of woman that needs to be pampered," Aqua-senpai said.
"Are you her maid?" Amelia asked
"No. I mean, yes. technically, not anymore," she said.
"What happened?" I asked
"I accidently got water on her dress, so she fired me." Aqua-senpai said
"So why do you want to go back?" Watson asked
"I'm a wreck. I can't do anything right without that job as a maid. I'll be all out of options." I'm going to ask if I can have my job back!" Aqua-senpai shouted
"You need backbone; you should probably tell her you won't come back," I said.
"But I love her!" Aqua-senpai cried
"I understand that, but if she's being toxic, don't you think you should get out of that relationship?" Amelia asked
"She isn't toxic; my mistress is just a kusogaki!" Aqua-senpai said
"Oh, so Shion-senpai is a child?" I asked
"No," Aqua-senpai said abruptly.
"Eh?" I said.
"What the hell... is she a teenager?" Amelia asked
"No, she's an adult!" Aqua-senpai chipperly stated
"Okay, there are so many problems, she acts like a child." I asked
"No. Well, yes. Actually, it depends on what you think a child is," Aqua-senpai said.
"Okay, you don't make sense. Please stop contradicting yourself," I said.
"I'm sorry, I'm just so nervous!" She cried
I sighed I know everything makes her nervous, but this is just crazy. What doesn't make her nervous? And how am I supposed to tolerate this? She is our senpai, though, and she is really cute.
"Let's go," Watson said.
"How far is the mystical forest?" I asked
"Uhhh, like twenty minutes away," Amelia estimated.
"Okay, let's get there in five," I said.
"How?" Aqua-Senpai and Ame asked
"We steal a car!" I said
"Or we can just use my pocket watch and fast-forward ourselves," I said.
"Let's do that," I said.
We tried to run, but then the pocket watch didn't work.
"Did Kronii take your time powers?" I asked
"I think so," Ame said.
"Well shit..." I said
"What does that watch do?" Aqua-senpai asked
"It controls time," I explained.
Amelia fiddled with it for a minute, and she got it working again.
"Let's get this show on the road!" She yelled
"Can you fast forward?" I asked
"Let's see" She said, "I don't think so," after trying it.
"Damn it, so we have to walk normally," I sighed.
"Correct," Amelia stated.
"I'm fine with walking; it's actually good for the heart!" Aqua-senpai said
I sighed and nodded, to be honest. Aqua-senpai did make a good point, and besides, it's not as if Shion-senpai will be looking for Aqua-senpai.
