Together, we Conquer

Halfway Done

March 7

Madran was waiting with Sheila for Suga to meet up with them. Madran grew increasingly bored, and looked over at Sheila.

"Um, she seemed fine at lunch..."

"Well, maybe, she has a few things to finish up?"

"I would hope so. This better not tie into all of that Kamoshida stuff..."

"Hi, Sheila!"

Ann walked up to Madran and Sheila.

"Hi, Ann! How are ya?"

"I'm okay, it's just that Kamoshida's been really fed up with Suga. Heck, he spent half of gym yelling at her in front of everyone, and got angrier when she didn't flinch."

"Ooh, do you have gym with her?"

"No, but one of Ryuji's classmates told me. Gosh, what has that girl been through to withstand that stuff?"

"Well, her former mentor, Proctora, would be constantly pulling stunts like that."

"Oh, right, that guy. Geez, is he miserable or what?"

"Well, he hated his job, and took that out on literally everyone else."

"Yeah. Also, Sheila, I've said this many times before, but I'm sorry about what happened between you and Shiini. It must've been hard to come out like that..."

"Well, thanks to Madran and Suga, I managed to do it, and now that guy's career is gone, and he's facing possible arrest."

"Yep! Also, that mysterious Bodacious Babes group popped up again. To be honest, it sounds like a name that Madran would create..."

Madran laughed.

"Yeah, now that I think of it, it kinda does."

"I think she's onto us."

"Maybe."

"So, first, they hit your dad, then Suga's mentor, and then Sheila's agent. Also, Sheila, have you gotten a new agent?"

"Well, several people offered to support me, I just gotta choose which."

"Why did you choose Shiini in the first place?"

"Well, he was awfully supportive, and taught me much about modeling, and got me many good deals. However, the price on some of those later deals were..."

Sheila grimaced. Madran then heard the school doors being opened, and several fast and heavy footsteps.

"Suga?"

A very angry and annoyed Suga stepped out from the doors. She made a direct beeline to Madran and the rest.

"Is anything the matter, Suga?"

"Yes."

"What happened?"

"Kamoshida."

"Oh, dear."

"Well, there was him yelling at me for half of gym class, and then him trying to spread that rumor that I had slept with Proctora-san."

"He did WHAT?!"

"Tried to spread a harmful rumor."

"That sounds an awful lot like him. Goodness, I really dislike that man..."

The small group began to make their way to the subway, and caught it just in time.

"Yeah, uh, yesterday, Kamoshida randomly approached me from behind when I was talking to a track member."
