Info-Chan: Be cautious. Megami Saikou is returning to school this week. She met Senpai at the weekend, and has listened to him rant about his problems, and now she's insistent she'll find whoever was responsible for them. Proceed with caution.

Ayano stared at her phone.

Megami Saikou. Nobody in that school had more power than her; not even the teachers. Not even Hina could compare to her masses of popularity.

Head of student council. She would have bodyguards with her at all times, alongside extensive self defence training. She also has a chip in her. People would
know where she was at all times.

Ayano thought of the upcoming week. How on earth would she ever get rid of her?

She wondered if this was the end for her. She would never have her Senpai. She considered dropping out of school and committing suicide, but decided she HAD to try. She couldn't just give up.

Megami wasn't easy to see. She was surrounded by two, huge bodyguards, for starters, and there was also a small crowd surrounding her. For once, Hina and Co were left alone.

"There goes our reign as most popular." Uekiya sighed.

"Oh, well. I'm gonna go say hi to Megami." Akane said. "See you later."

"I'll come too." Uekiya said, and followed her.

Budo was actually missing, and Hina glanced at Ayano.

"I hate that girl so much. She is such a bitch." she mumbled.

"Really?"

"Oh, yeah. So passive aggressive, rude. Absolutely boring."

Ayano glanced over at Megami.

"Hina?"

"Yeah?"

She glanced around. "I need your help getting rid of her."

"I cannot believe I agreed to this." Hina mumbled. The two were in the girls bathroom, and Ayano was adjusting Hina's skirt to be shorter.

"Well, you did. Look, all you need to do is, at lunch, distract her two body guards. You're a catch, nobody can resist your charm. I'm gonna put a letter in her locker, asking to meet at the front of school. Then, I'll drop some weights on her head."

"And then you'll stop killing people?"

"We all have our flaws."

Hina gave her a look. "So, like, what's your beef with Megami? I get your reasoning with Mida, but..."

"Like you said. She's been passive aggressive to me, too, and I find her disrespect disturbing. Especially considering she's going to go on to run a company. I say we erase her now while we have the chance."

Hina shook her head. "I hate that I agree with you. But if you get caught, you're going down on your own. I hope you realise I'm also risking my relationship here by flirting with her bodyguards. I'm coming clean to Budo it the police get involved."

"Yeah, sorry about that. I promise, I'll be quick. I already put the weights up there. She'll be on her way now. Just do your little fainting trick, it works a charm."

Hina nodded, and ran off. "Good luck, bitch."

Ayano rushed upstairs to the roof. She glanced over the railings, and saw Megami there. No bodyguards. She glanced behind her. Nobody was around or close enough to see her do this.

It was a perfect crime.

She picked up the weights, and dropped them. There was the sound of them hitting the floor, and after glancing over the railings again, it was pretty obvious Megami had been squished.

She walked down the roof stairs, and found Hina distracting the bodyguards.

"Oh, I'm so sorry. This is my friend, she has a fainting condition. She'll be fine, I promise."

The bodyguards nodded. Hina looked up at Ayano and gave her a questioning look. Ayano nodded.

Hina got up from the floor. "That's kinda scary."

Ayano nodded. "I know. But I think I have the confidence now to confess to Taro."

Hina covered her mouth. "No way! You're gonna do it?!"

In all honesty, Ayano had only said it to distract her. But the more she thought about it, the more it seemed like it would happen. She nodded.

"This Friday. Under the cherry blossom tree. I'm gonna do it."

Hina smiled. "Oh, god! Good luck!"

And Ayano went to class, not thinking of Megami's death, but her future with Senpai.
