A huge hunt for a selective mother for child was over. They had found the woman to mother the child. The one who exceled all in magical talent of the light. 

I still don't understand why i was chosen. But i was told it would be okay...

The dark seed embedded into my 'cradle'. I must wait for the arrival of 'The black God's child'.

[LOCATION: Woods Behind Campus]

After school, Chernette, Ace, Deuce and Grim went over to the woods to get some wild chestnuts, and it was plentiful of them.

"Whoa! There really are a lotta chestnuts here! If we have this much, then it's all-you-can-eat marron tarts for us! Gehehe..." Grim chuckled as he started to walk without taking a certain thing into account. "Let's hurry and—Ouch!! Gah! The chestnut's thorns dug into my pawpads!"

"That's because chestnuts are prickly." Chernette told the cat.

"Looks like it'll be impossible to pick them up with bare hands. I would also like to have a bucket to place them all in, too." Deuce said looking around for a bucket.

"Maybe we can find those things in the botanical garden?" Ace asked.

"Good idea." Deuce added as they walked over to the garden.

"Whoa! It looks bigger on the inside." Ace remarked.

"We should be able to find the necessary tools here. Should we split up and look?" Deuce asked.

"Sure, Grim and I will check the inner gardens." Chernette volunteered.

"I'll go right, then." Ace decided.

"I'll check west." Deuce finished.

"Hey, come look at this. It looks like there're tonsa fruits here! They smell so good!" Grim expressed gleefully.

"These are all plants I've never seen before." Chernette said as she looked around, but she wasn't looking where she was going. And the same time, the same feeling she had back at the cafeteria happened, only this time, with her right shoulder.

???: Ow–!

'Wha? Did I step on something?' Chernette thought as she looked down

???: Hey. You've got guts stepping on someone's tail without apologizing.

"Are you the guy tending to this place? Wow, you've got quite a scary mug..." Grim asked the new individual.

???: "I went here thinking I can have a peaceful nap, but then my tail gets stepped on. This's the worst." He grumbled, ignoring Grim.

"I'm so sorry!" 'But It's your fault for letting your tail stick out on the path though.' She thought.

???: You... you're the new prefect everyone's talkin about." He said as he leaned in and...(sniffs Chernette)

'H-he's... sniffing me?' The girl thought in surprise and confusion.

'Urk... I don't know how to explain, but his glares are sending chills down my spine!' Grim thought as he shivered.

???: You think I'm gonna let you off scot free after you just stepped on the great Leona's tail? 'Leona' smirked as he pulled Chernette close to him, his breath ghosting on her ear.

"I can't describe it. You have an appearance not suited for a villain, but your scent says other wise. I can't even tell what kind of scent it is." 

As he snaked an arm around her waist, and Celeste's face heated up.

"I already said I was sorry!" Celeste said.
