I am Takeda Kuroha, fifteen years old. I'm a normal highschooler, well, not so normal. I'm what you call popular: many male schoolmates of mine give me flowers, chocolates and some cards asking me out. But I turned down all of them.

I became the class representative who reports to the Student Council directly, and this resulted in rumors regarding the Student Council President and I.

His name is Nobunaga Oda, the most popular guy in school. He's the youngest Student Council President ever, being sixteen years old. He's the son of Nobunaga Hajime, the Chairman of NH Group. In other words, he's got the brains, the looks, the brawns and the money.

Everytime we held a meeting, the other students would look at us weirdly like they expected us to do something. Kaichou just shrugged off their surveillance while I felt uncomfortable. I thought, "as expected of the kuudere prince."

I am currently in the office of the Student Council, giving the report of our class' needs. Kaichou just stared at the folder indifferently.

"Is this it, Takeda-san?" He fixed the glasses on his nose. "I think your report is insufficient, is it not?"

"Yes Kaichou, this is it. My classmates are not that needy. Besides, I already summarized my report so you'll have no trouble reading it. May I go now?" He nodded and I was about to slide the door open when he called me.

"Wait Takeda-san!" I turned to his direction.

"Yes Kaichou?"

"..." He never replied but instead, he stood up and his silhouette caught my attention.

"Kaichou?"

"... we need to go back Tak--no, Kuroha-san." His black eyes glowed into purple behind his glasses. "We need to go back, they're in danger..." He said in a serious tone.

"What? What are you talking about?" I asked but he just walked to me and held my both of my shoulders.

*bathump bathump

This is our first physical contact. I wonder why he's talking gibberish right now, and why my heart's fluttering due to this closeness.

"Kuroha-san, we need to go back..!"

"Wait Kaicho--"

"Call me Oda."

"Oda-san, what is this nonsense..? I need to go home, ottousan must be worried now. You should go home, too." I wryly smiled and removed his hands. "Maybe you're tired from your duties so rest. Goodbye, Kaichou."

I turned my back on him and I was about to walk away when a knife struck to my chest. The tip of the weapon was visible in my line of sight and blood slowly seeped out of the stabbed area. I coughed out blood and my knees suddenly gave out its strength.

*cough cough

*slump

"... urgh... wha-what..? Urgh..."

"Now we can return to Coelacanth..!" He smiled smugly that I flinched.

What return is he talking about? Where is Coelacanth? Why is he relieved when he stabbed me? What the hell happened to the kuudere Student Council President?

"... urgh... return? Urgh... where..?"

"Home." He replied and stabbed himself. His blood splurted to my face that I cried in distress.

*kyaaaaahhhh

"Let's go back... Seraphine." He lastly said and took his last breath. He gradually closed his now lifeless eyes and then, also, my vision darkened.

Seraphine?
