Mid-Knights

Episode 11: Byakuya's Search! The Game begins!

Byakuya strolls back and forth in his studies after school 'Uryu....where have you gone off to?....its been five days and there's no sign of you....I went to your home....your library everywhere and you never miss a day of class......what's going on here? He's most loyal to me after Shiro he never misses a day........' he crosses his arms staring out the window in thought

-Flashback-

"I'm going to the school if any luck Yasuo should still be there....I'll question him myself I'll let you know what I discover Byakuya" Uryu Informs him over the phone

"Right....be careful, Not knowing who or what he is? Makes him unpredictable don't let your guard down.....he may act like a saint but I can smell the confidence from within...he's definitely hiding something I feel it...come back to me with any info you can find" Byakuya orders him

"Yes, Byakuya-sama" Uryu hangs up the call suddenly

-Flashback ends-

"What the hell happened too you? What did you discover that makes you wanna dissappear like this?" Byakuya says lowly worried for his friends well being.

Mitsuki knocks on the door, "Hey Nii-san, you're going to be late for school if you don't leave now." She pauses, "Is everything okay? You're usually the one telling me I'm going to be late."

"Yes I'm fine...go on ahead Mitsuki, I'll catch up with you later" Byakuya says stressful and waves her off packing a suitcase "I'll meet you at school"

"If you say so." Mitsuki says leaving and heading off. At school she meets up with Izumo, "Hey Mitsuki!" she waves "Where's Byakuya?" "Why? You crushing on him?" She responds teasingly.

"Psh, as if, not even if he was the last guy in the world." Izumo says rolling her eyes and the two girls laugh.

Mitsuki looks around "Have you seen-"

"Yasuo?" Izumo finishes her sentence, "Yeah, he's in the center courtyard, have you talked to him since the whole thing with your brother?"

Mitsuki shakes her head no, "I'm nervous he won't want to be anywhere near me after that."

"Trust me, I think he will." Izumo says giving her wink and leading them towards the courtyard. "There he is, go talk to him." she says pointing at the blonde sitting on a bench underneath one of the trees.

"Alright." Mitsuki says a bit nervous as she heads over. "Hey Yasuo..." she says looking away shyly.

Yasuo bolts up and looks back, nervously "H-hey Mitsuki?" He looks around frantically "I don't think you should be here when I'm around..." he starts to back away "I don't wanna die today..hehe"

"N-No its okay look." She says pointing to her forhead, "Byakuya calmed down once we got home and he removed the mark, he said we cam be friends." She looks away "U-Unless you don't want to be, then its okay." 'Why am I nervous?' she thinks to herself.

Yasuo looks at her confused "H-he did? Really! Wow, that's surprising, of course I wanna be friends" he smiles in relief "I'm glad he let go of his anger, I've missed you"

Mitsuki blushes darkly not even trying to hide it this time "Wait.. y-you did?"

Yasuo smiles rubbing the back of his head "Yeah, I have" he chuckles nervously "How have you been?"

"I strangely feel better now." She says with a smile, "How about you? Are you healing alright?"

"Healing? From what?" Yasuo questions "Oh from what your brother did? Ah he barely scratched me...my monster heritage helps me heal faster than usual anyhow"

"Hey Yasuo, speaking of which" Mitsuki pauses and tilts her head to the side, "What kind of monster are you?" she smiles curiously.

"Hm? Well that's a rather odd question" Yasuo tilts his head curiously "Does it really matter what I am? I don't really like talking about it" he dodges her question smoothly

Mitsuki shakes her head "Of course it doesn't change anything. I'm just curious, I've never smelled any scent like yours." She begins blushing embarrassed "N-Not that that's a bad thing, I'm not saying it's a bad scent I actually really like it." She blushes even harder starting to babble, "I don't mean I like you but not like I don't like you j-just as a friend.... I'm gonna shut up now and just go to class." she says her face bright red at this point.

Yasuo chuckles "Yeah let's just get to class...don't want you having a heart attack now" He begins walking her to class "Don't worry, I'm just a regular cave dweller from the North"

"A cave dweller huh?" Mitsuki thinks for a moment "I don't think I've actually met one before especially from the North, but then again I don't get to go on the business trips yet, there's a lot I'm unfamiliar with." She says reaching her class "Thanks for walking me to class, catch you later?"

Yasuo nods "Yes of course, see you later Mitsuki" He smiles and begins walking toward his own class 'She's starting to look into it as well....'

'Hmm, I wonder if Byakuya knows what a cave dweller is?' Mitsuki wonders to herself "I'll just ask him later."
