Nanako hadn't slept a wink, tossing and turning all night, reliving the disastrous ending to Mariko's birthday party. Visions of her friend weeping, the words of her desperate threats sent chills running through her, and every time she closed her eyes, she could practically feel the wind rushing past her ear, the cold edge of St. Juste's knife.
'Dear onii-sama... St. Juste-sama scares me so much, but I...!'
Nor could she bear to be apart from her. It was a situation that frayed her nerves and pushed her lovesick emotions to their limits. All she had wanted was a peaceful school life, and now, she was swept up in the vicious games of the sorority...
She hardly even paid attention to where she was going as she got off the bus, her mind elsewhere as she began walking up the path to the school gates...or what she thought had been the path. With sudden clarity, she looked around. She saw tall trees, long grasses, a definite path of stone, but the school building nowhere in sight. Had she wandered off in her daze?
"S...St. Juste-sama? Mariko-san?"
