The Lilac Shadow (Ansatsu Kyoushitsu Fanfiction)

Chapter 29: Before & After Time

Yola! I am back with another chapter for you! I forgot to ask last chapter, but does anyone else think that Karma is like a real devil when he is arguing with Nagisa? Like his eyes just go wide, face becomes black, and have veins popping out from his neck? Because that's really scary. And cute.

By the way, I don't have school again! Trapped in the dorm because of some rain or something, which means two chapters a day will happen again! Yay!

=============================================

Nagisa's POV

Taking On the 2nd-Term Midterm! Special Training to Improve in Your Worst Subjects

This is what I saw when Koro-sensei comes in. "All right, class! The second-term midterms are just two weeks away! The time has come at last to surpass the A Class!" Koro-sensei said as his clones fill up the classroom once again. "Let's go into this red-hot! Hot! Hot! That's oppressingly hot!"

Even since we dodged Asano's trap at the sports festival, we've been able to focus all our efforts on our midterms. At the same time, we were all a little...restless, somehow. Five months left until Koro-sensei's assassination deadline.

We were only growing more impatient.

"Whoo!" Okajima yells cheerfully as he jumps onto another roof, jumping up again with some of us following him. "What a rush!" Rio cheers.

"How's this for the shortest way to the station?" Okajima asks, and the girls cheers, "It's the best!" I smile, lagging behind a bit.

"Wait up, guys!" Isogai yells, and Kataoka continues, "No parkour outside of class!"

"No sweat! The sports festival showed 'em: we're no ordinary students!" Okajima yells, shutting them up. I laugh. We just might pull off that assassination!

When Okajima and Kimura jump down to an alley, my eyes widened in shock when I hear crushing sounds and quickly go over, gasping when I see an old man holding his leg with his bicycle broken on the ground, and all the stuff on the ground.

"What was that noise!?" Hearing someone asks anxiously, we all look over at a man holding a bouquet of flowers. "Oh, no! I'll call an ambulance!" He said, quickly taking his phone out. We are in big trouble.

**********

We stand outside of the hospital, waiting anxiously for Karasuma-sensei to come out. When he does, we all look up. "A hairline fracture of the right femur. It's mild enough that he should be up and walking in a week or so, but given that you kids are a state secret, my men are negotiating a gag order and an out-of-court settlement." He explains.

I breathe out a sigh of relief but immediately stiffens up when we see an very, very furious Koro-sensei, his face black with rage. "K-Koro-sensei..." Isogai stammers. "B-But it was such a narrow street..." Kimura mumbles, looking away.

"Who'd ever expect an old man to be riding his bike down there?" Okajima argues, and Okano agrees, but Yada said quietly, "I do think what we did was wrong..."

"But we did it to sharpen up our skills." Rio continues, guilt on her face.

"You just don't get the pressure and panic of havin' to save the Earth." Terasaka scoffs, but then Koro-sensei slaps our cheeks, hard. He goes to the front, still furious and his tentacles waving around before falling down. "Will you report that as injuring the students? I'll overlook it this once." He asks Karasuma-sensei tightly.

"I knew the risks when I introduced that high-level training...it may have been too soon for you after all. It's my fault." He sighs disappointedly before going back in, the door sliding close behind him. I rub my cheek, wincing slightly.
