School was over quickly enough with Shinku worrying about the previous day.  She knew her grades would suffer slightly from it and would have to ask a classmate to lend their notes for a bit.  That was the problem with having a great memorization of vocalized words but a shoddy knowledge of how to actually study.  Still, it didn't matter too much at this point as the sick teacher was more of what they needed to keep an eye out for.  After classes, she found herself outside the sketchy door in the middle of school to the "Velvet Room".  As tempted as she was to go in and investigate. . . Well, she didn't see a point.  They were cryptic as it was, and Shinku doubted they would give her a straight answer anyhow.

Instead, she decided that rather than gain answers she should train her body.  Whatever those things were on the other side, she was sure that it wasn't the last time she'd see them.  Perhaps today would be a good day for a patrol.  As it was, she found clubs pointless anyhow.  On her way out, she passed near the nurse's office and saw Kazuo, Dai, and that "Mint" person (an odd name she thought). She smiled and waved to them as she passed on her way out to a rumored spot of deliquints. . .

When she got to the spot, she found it actually was all that far away from the mall.  On top of that, they weren't really hardcore delinquints. . . Just wannabees.  "Oi, idiots." Shinku started saying aloud to the five guys just sitting around.  Of course, she caught all of their attention.  "You all the ones I heard about causing trouble?"

One of them decided to stand up and walk toward her while the others were just laughing. "Depends.  We're just taking things that we decide was ours in the first place.  You ever hear of "Charles Darwin" and his little idea of evolution. You know, "survival of the fittest" and all?  If we can take it. . . Then it is ours? Right?"  Then he looked straight up and down Shinku examining her. . . "Nice proportions, eh?"

As he moved towards Shinku trying to touch her. . . "Disgusting." She muttered before punching the guy right in his stomach.  "I don't want to catch whatever venereal disease you might have, idiot."  Before he had a chance to retort she sent her elbow into the back of his neck and knocked him out.  Three of the others jumped up, shocked, and rushed her.  Shinku thought it was cute they came at the same time and all, but dodged one, blocked the next and tripped the last guy.  Stepping over the guy she tripped, the guy she dodged tried running and swinging, but slipped on his friend and took them a nap in the dirt.  The blocked guy tried throwing something but had a horrid aim and missed by a long shot.  Shinku just jumped at him, grabbed him and threw him on top of his friends.  A nice little deliquint pile really.  The last guy that sat out threw a rock and hit Shinku in the back, only before running and trying to escape out the back way from the little alley like area they were in.

Shinku gave chase and noticed that he was making his way toward the mall. In fact he made it inside.  There was little she could do there with the amount of people around.  It still hadn't been too long since she left school, though it took some time before she actually left.  Perhaps it would be best to just kill time at the mall. . . Maybe look for the last good-for-nothing and give him a message.  So she started to just wander the mall at this point.
