[i]The time passed by and soon the sun was about to take its leave for the day. Just darkness crept upon the land, the girls would find that their misadventures were about to begin.

The first sign of that was the unnatural shift in the world around them. One moment the world was perfectly normal, with the soft reds of the dusk giving space to the dark blue of the early evening sky, however, as soon as the sun went bellow the mountains that kept Miso City isolate from most of the outside world, the sky turned red...[/i]
[hr]

It was a deep, rich hue of red, as fresh looking as the blood pulsating through the girls' very veins and hanging ominously on it was moon several times larger than the one they were used to. It was clear that they weren't in their known world anymore, but what was it then? A nightmare? A delusion provoked by their nearly dying minds? Or had they truly entered a world of magic and wonder?

The answer to these questions would have to wait, however, as all of them would have a meeting with a pretty peculiar individual that would change their fates forever...

[i]"I see that you seem to be lost, young one. Would you care to draw a card and reveal what fortune smiles upon thee?"[/i]

A voice that echoed within the heads of the girls' said and before they could notice a strong compulsion assailed them, and they would feel as if drawing a card from the tarot deck owned by the woman that appeared out of nowhere before them would be the best thing to do. Even then, their actual decision was still left to themselves.

However, right at that moment, a group of three other girls had a completely different problem at hand...

[color=92278f]"Ouch, Kuro-shin! Your words hurt me more than a Thousand Needles."[/color] Akane said when Reika rebutted her commentaries with a rather cold remark. Seriously, where was the respect that she deserved as the Academy's top student? Akane closed one eye and looked all too hurt because of Reika's coldness, though it was obvious that it was nothing but a play when she stuck her tongue out like a little girl.

[color=92278f]"Anyway, I guess that you are right 'bout that. Owarin is always the one to arrive after everything is over. At least you can say that her name fits her character, right?"[/color]

However, Akane's random chatter was bound to end as the main event of the night finally began [color=92278f]"I guess that's our cue. Let's flip'em, Kuro-shin!"[/color] Akane yelled just as she dashed out of the Student Council's room, heading towards the place that was most natural for one to go on times such as this, the roof, obviously.
