[Raden pov]

Banchou and I were walking home when we came across Ao-kun, who was butting up and throwing against the wall of Arurun's pizza place. Kanade was with her, but she was nowhere to be found.

"Wake up!" I say, slapping the face of the unconscious woman, she slowly began to open her eyes, looking around.

"They took Kanade-chan..."

"Who?" I ask.

Banchou sighs, "Ririka's father is probably..."

"Huh!?" I shout

Banchou had a look of concern on her face. "My brother, we need to make sure he's safe-Kanade-san will have to wait a little while longer. If she is with Ririka, she'll be fine!"

"She won't be fine!!!" Ao-kun shouts

*I slid a cigarette out*

"We just have to trust Riri..." I say

"Trust Ririka-chan!?" Ao-kun sighs

"Yes..." I said while lighting my cigarette and taking a deep breath so I could hand

*Ao-kun raised her hand as if she were going to punch me, but Raden stopped her. "Riri, what is your relationship with her?" She asks since she thought Ao-kun and I were friends.

"A fling, nothing more, actually, not even that one night of passion, and this girl thinks she can step into my world. Being in love with Kanade isn't enough for her; she thinks she has to actually become friends with me-I helped her become friends with Kanade again. That is enough. Every single time I look at Ao-kun, she repulses me. I want to vomit right now!"

I looked at her, shocked. "Riri..." I sighs. "You don't mean that!" I say louder.*

"Ao-kun... I know you're upset!"

"More than upset!" She shouts

Riri really was mean to her, but she needs to understand why she did that. Riri is ready to throw away her life for the people she loves. She really is a kind soul. She is our friend, and we don't want her to get hurt.

Banchou motioned for us to follow her, and we did all the way to her dorm room, where her brother was standing outside. "Oh, hey," Todoroki was cut off by Banchou hugging him.

"H-Hey?" He questions

"Thank goodness!" Hajime shouts

"Yeah, yes, thank goodness." Hitomi mutters

She was badly beaten and bruised, but standing before us without Riri nearby is weird.

"What happened??" Hajime asks

"He... he got her," Hitomi claims.

"Riri is dead." I cut myself off since she was probably just captured. I can't let myself think negatively.

"Tsk, so what if she is captured!?" Ao-kun shouts, "We need to save Kanade-chan!" She adds

"Why don't you want to save my mistress?" Hitomi questions

"She is a bully." Ao-kun sighs

"A bully!? How can you say that after she saved your life, or at least tried to?" Hitomi screams angrily.

"What?"

*Banchou and I face palm*

"You don't know that she is protecting you?" Banchou asks

"No-she was being a huge mean woman!" Ao-kun shouts at us.

"Riri is a good woman!" I shout

*"Raden-" Lui-nee was cut off once again, but this time by Riri, who covered her mouth from behind.
