The annual class trip was approaching quickly and the groups were forming just as rapidly. Your group consisted of Nagisa, Karma, Kayano, Manami, Isogai, and Kanzaki. With midterms coming up, it was a lot to have on your plate, but you were sure everyone could handle it.
Kyoto was a wonderful city, one you spent some time in during your childhood and you were excited to revisit it, especially with your friends and Karma. You knew some of the layout of the city, but you were glad to explore it again with people so close to you.
You walked in the middle of Karma and Nagisa to the train station with the rest of your group, then boarded the train after some drama between Karasuma and Irina. You sat down next to Karma as your group stuck together for the ride to Kyoto.
"Where do you say we try to do the deed?" Isogai asked.
"There's a small alleyway by a coffee shop we could check out," you suggested timidly.
"How do you know your way around Kyoto?" Kayano inquired kindly.
You shrugged a shoulder, not wanting to get into it. Truthfully, you weren't too good with words when around people you didn't consider close friends. The students in your class were more of acquaintances than friends in the end.
The train arrived and the hoard of students from Kunugigaoka hurried off to their sightseeing locations. You strolled closely to Karma as per usual and took in the view you were being graced with.
"Mind if we could take a break? I could go for some coffee right now," Karma suggested.
Everyone agreed and you decided to go down the alleyway you were speaking of earlier since it was close by. The place was dark and deserted, almost ominous in its nature.
"You don't catch many people around these part, that's why it's ideal for assassination," you told your group.
"You really did your homework," Kayano said, grinning widely.
"Also a great place for kidnappers to plan their trade," a deep voice said from the darkness before almost ten guys appeared.
You tensed up, your natural fight-or-flight instincts kicking in, and everything was telling you to run despite your training. You hated confrontation and whatever was about to happen wasn't good.
"Something tells me you gentlemen aren't tourists," Karma jokes.
"Karma," you whispered nervously.
Karma glanced over his shoulder at you and knew instantly how scared you were, and he did not like it one bit.
"Don't try to be a hero, just hand over your lady friends and--"
The guy was cut off by Karma instantly taking him to the ground as if it were child's play.
"You see that? What did I tell you? Without any witnesses, it's a free for all. Go nuts," Karma said evily.
You gasped as you saw the knife heading for Karma's side, but he managed to dodge it. Suddenly, you were grabbed from behind along with Kayano and Kanzaki and began getting dragged away.
"Karma!" you managed to scream as one of the guys put his hand over your mouth.
Karma whipped around and his eyes went wide at seeing you in the enemy's grasp. He grit his teeth and went to charge at the guy, but was hit from behind and ganged up on with feet from five guys stomping on his body.
"Get off him!" you cried after biting the guy's hand but you only received a slap across the face in return and continued to be dragged toward a van.

Karma regained consciousness after Manami awakened him, Isogai, and Nagisa. It took him a second to remember what happened, but he sat up quickly and rubbed the spot on his head where he was hit as his blood boiled under his skin.
"I'm going to end them," he mumbled under his breath but the others heard loud and clear. "I'm going to rip off their skin with a butter knife and make them eat it if they lay one hand on her."
"Who?" Isogai questioned, slightly terrified.
Karma didn't answer and instead stood and began walking in a random direction. Manami, Nagisa, and Isogai rose to their feet and waited for someone to explain.
"He's talking about (Y/N)," Nagisa revealed reluctantly. "They've been together for a while and, honestly, Karma would kill anyone who laid a hand on her. If Koro-sensei went as far to do something to her, even he would be dust by now."
Manami and Isogai were perplexed, but they accepted the answer and went after Karma.

You were tied up leaning against a dirty, graffiti wall with Kayano and Kanzaki. You were each interrogated but you were the only one who didn't speak a word. You weren't scared anymore, you were furious. How dare they do anything to Karma? A fire was brewing inside you big enough to burn a forest to the ground and it took everything you had to douse the flames.
The party soon started when Karma, Nagisa, Isogai, and Manami burst through the door with the guide book in their hands. You had never been so happy to see them.
"No matter what happens, you're not getting out of this unscathed. That's a promise," Karma said vehemently.
A moment later, Koro-sensei barged in with his tentacles looped around the necks of a few of the guys and threw them to the ground, then went all out to attack the other enemies. The boys and Manami took the time to run over and untie the three of you.
You threw your arms around Karma's neck and he wrapped his around your waist, holding you tightly to his body. You heard the whispers from the rest of your group but you couldn't care less because you were okay and Karma was okay and everything was going to be okay.
"Are you hurt? Did they do anything to you?" Karma muttered.
"No, I'm fine. What about you?" you questioned worriedly as you pulled away, assessing the damage.
"A little bruised, but I'm good, don't worry," he replied with a promising grin.
"So... You're really together?" Isogai asked.
"Hey, don't start making jokes or some stupid shit," Karma warned.
The others laughed and you relaxed against Karma with the atmosphere being calm. A part of you was glad with the secret being out while the other hoped it wouldn't hinder your relationship with some of the mystery being gone, but you knew any type of life with Karma would not be dull.
