Himeko's Pov

"Give me your reports" Karl Heinz said over the phone.

"Master, there have been two attacks since the mission has been effective... Wolves had made the first attack and not long after, demons had ambushed us"

"Are any of my sons injured?" he asked sternly.

"None, Master. The princes and Eve-sama are safe"

"Excellent work, my diabolik doll" Karl-sama said using my old name.

"Thank you, Master"

"Report to me if any more of these incidents happen... Alright?" Karl-sama asked.

"Yes, Master"

"Good. Himeko, one wrong move and you'll be punished... Understand?" Karl-sama warned.

"Yes, Master. I understand" I said ending the call.

I then sighed heavily and was about to go back to class when I bumped into someone.

"I'm terribly sorry" Instinctively, I bowed.

"No, no, it's my fault. I'm sorry" a girl with long black hair muttered. She continued to ramble on when her catlike eyes shined with recognition. "Aren't you Himeko Mukami?"

"Yes, that's me"

She took hold of my hand and in a half-whisper, told me to come with her. Leading me through less crowded hallways, we happened upon an empty office room.

"Why am I here?" I asked as she looked at me.

"I'm Ahri Kitsune, the student council president. I need your assistance in disciplining Mr. Shuu Sakamaki." Ahri queasily said. I raised my eyebrow.

"I mean that his grades are getting low and he's been skipping classes and I really need your help" she explained with skittish gestures.

"And why me?"

"Because I and the other council members tried reasoning with him to stop being lazy for once but he kept ignoring us to the point we all gave up" Ahri said in defeat.

"I see... so it's up to me then" I said.

"We are asking you to please help us" she pleaded.

"Alright, I'll help" I said as she smiled.

"Thank you, Miss Mukami"

"No need to thank me, Madame President" I told her as I opened the door.

"He's in the Music Room. Just next door" I nodded in reply and immediately went to the music room to look for master Shuu.

Once I arrived, I quickly found him sleeping on one of the benches. I kneeled down to level my face with his.

"Shuu-sama..." I gently shook his shoulder. When he didn't stir, I tried calling his name louder. I heard him groan in his sleep.

"Troublesome woman" he muttered under his breath.

"Shuu-sama wake up, you have classes to attend to" I told him but he ignored me and continue to sleep.

"Shuu-sama" I called out to him again but instead of the usual groan of hatred he grabbed me by my waist and pulled me closer on top of his sleeping form.

"Shuu-sama" I said trying to remove his arm off of my waist.

"Quiet" he said.

"Shuu-sama, you have classes" I said and he ignored me again.

"Shuu-sama!" I yelled which irritated him.

"Why would you pester me woman?" he asked letting me go as I get off of him.

"Because you are skipping school and your classes, Shuu-sama you can't keep doing this to yourself" I told him.

"Quiet" he replied.

"Shuu-sama do you not wish to just stop this whole routine of yours and just go back to class" I said as he ignored me yet again.

I sighed as I thought of a plan that would make him go to class.

"Shuu-sama if you go to class right now I will do your homework or even tutor you or do anything you please"

"And why would you do that Hime?" he questioned sarcastically. I can feel that he was interested in the offer.

"Because I want you to graduate from school without ever bothering to come back again and again you can sleep all day in the mansion if you like and nothing can disturb you" I said.

"Fine I'll go but on one condition" he whispered into my ear.

"I want you to do something for me later"

"Is it something that I would not like?" I ask.

He didn't reply to me. He made his way to class. I followed him secretly until he had entered his class. Surprisingly he even paid attention the students and teacher were shocked to see him. After that, I soon left for my class.

Reiji's Pov

It was unusual to see the deadbeat in class, knowing how he would always be somewhere rather than here and what's more shocking is that he is even paying attention to the teacher without even falling asleep.

I then caught a familiar scent only for me to see silver locks from the window door.

Himeko...

I then look at the deadbeat's direction and glared at him. He saw me glaring at him and he smirked blood began to boil in me as I ignored him and went back to listening to the teacher.

Shuu's Pov

I smirked as I saw my brother glaring at me I feel his blood began to boil and went back to listening to the teacher.

I stared at the window to see the Sakura tree in full bloom it's petals swayed while being carried by the air. A sad memory suddenly came to me about the girl we cherished so much.

*Flashback*

"Shuu-nii look pretty flowers!" She said pointing at the Sakura tree.

"Those are Sakura flowers Kirra" I replied happily to the curious girl.

"Sa-ku-ra?" She said.

"Kirra is like a Sakura flower too" I told her.

"Kirra is?" She said pointing to herself.

"Sakura petals are pretty and fragile like Kirra" I said as she smiled at me.

"Then Kirra will be Shuu-nii's Sakura!" She said happily as I giggled in reply.

"Shuu-nii, I love you!"

*End of Flashback*

"My little Sakura Flower" I muttered as I look away from the Sakura tree.
