Kurumu knocked harshly against Moka's door.

"Akashiya Moka! You open up right no-?"

Kurumu staggered a bit when the door slowly opened from just the force of her knocks. She looked around the room, only to be shocked by what she saw. The room was empty. None of Moka's possessions were present. There was a letter pushed into the brass nameplate of the room's door. Kurumu took the note and read it.

I'm sorry. I don't know what to say or do, but I've left for now. It just isn't the same. Please don't be angry with me.

Akashiya Moka.

"No...Moka."

Kurumu took the letter and went off to find the others.

"What do you mean onee-chan left?!"

Kokoa all but shrieked. Kou covered his sensitive ears with his wings. Kurumu hands her the note.

"W-where could she have gone desku?"

Yukari asked as she read the note with Kokoa.

"How should I know! I mean Kokoa-chan, where would your sister run off to?"

Kokoa looked up at Kurumu and shook her head.

"I...I don't know, home?"

Mizore removed her lollipop from her mouth and looked to the others.

"Troublesome situation, why would she run away?"

Mizore's question held ground.

"Hello everyone!"

Ruby called with her cheery demeanor, but it did not match to the current air surrounding the girls. They glared irritably at the elder witch, which caused her to jump back a bit in surprise.

"Well aren't all of you a bunch of sour lemons...why the long faces?"

They hand Ruby the note. The witch gasps in shock.

"M-moka-san left as well?!"

"You mean you didn't know desku?"

Yukari tilted her head.

"W-why of course not!"

Ruby's cheeks were stained red.

"Wait a minute."

Kurumu turned to the others.

"Isn't Ruby-san the Board Chairman's assistant?"

Ruby shrieked out when the path was covered with a wall of ice. The witch had been trying to skulk out of the hall. Now she had four, very angry, youkai behind her.

"Ruby-saaan..."

They growled out as they surrounded the witch.

~Tsukune's House~

"Ahhh!"

Came Tsukune's loud yell. His mother and father sat in the kitchen having breakfast.

"He's going to be late."

His father laughed from behind the newspaper. There was loud fumbling upstairs as Tsukune struggled to gather his belongings and books for school. His mother takes a sip of her tea and sets the cup down. She stands up, picking up Tsukune's obento.

"So are you dear."

The paper could be heard crumpling a bit at her husband's realization of this.

Tsukune's mother walked over to the door, her husband gatherhins is effects. Popping a kiss on her cheek he runs out.

"Bye dear! I'm going now!"
