She figured it would be best to leave Mira be, but now that she thought of it, what sort of friend would she be for not comforting Mira-chan after that ordeal. Damn this guilt she always felt. Looking to the Gaijin, she sighed deeply, wondering if it was best to go find Mira-chan or let her be alone for the time being. She could picture Mira probably in their dorm they shared....crying her eyes out and reeling, suffering from that magnum of embarrassment, especially in front of her...and Haruka. It pained the girl to think of such, her friend holding in all this hurt, all this sadness. "Well....." She managed to reply after a slow drag of her cigarette and a breath of smoke to the wind. "I'm not sure really..... I mean....." What did she mean? How heartless of her it would be just to take option B, stand there like a jackass while Mira was in anguish. Some friend she was..."Ah f*ck it! Let's go Gaijin." Decision made, and really it wouldn't show Tohru was clingy. It was more that she cared for her friend. "You coming too, G.I. Jane?" And then she had to blurt out her little biting nickname for Haruka. If anything, she figured that was going to fall out of her mouth anytime really. Tohru figured the dorms was where she would find Mira, but after climbing those God-forbidden stairs up to the third floor and trekking swiftly down the halls to 312, she opened the door to...no one. "Huh?" Then where the hell was Mira?

Haruka blinked a little at the sudden nickname and actually blushed a little. G.I Jane? Wow, she really quite liked it. She found it awfully flattering. She wondered if Tohru felt threatened by her or intimidated and that was why she was snappy around her, which wasnt something she had considered before since Tohru always seemed a very stalwart and confident person. She followed after Tohru, although she tried to say she thought Mira had gone a completely different way but didnt manage it with Tohru striding off so fast. They got to the dorm and sure enough she wasnt there. Haruka sighed, "I'm sure I saw her walk off towards the classrooms Tohru-san." She muttered to herself. She just walked out of the room when suddenly Kira appeared behind her. "Right Haruka, sorry about dragging you away but you're the only one in the vicinity who I can trust and we are in seriously dire straights, 'we might die and the whole country might get blown up' situation. Meet me at the south gate in a half hour and be prepared." And with that she was gone. 

She turned to Tohru not really looking much surprised, having been trained for this. She was surprised to be a little sad, even though she knew she was coming back... unless she died of course. But she trusted her skills. She smiled at Tohru. "Ah... well I suppose I'm to leave for a while. In case I dont come back, I'm sorry we didnt get to know each other better, I always thought you were a very admirable person." She patted Tohru's shoulder as she walked past her and down the stairs.

She made her way towards her room and collected all she would need before running towards where she thought Mira was and eventually finding her in a classroom with a few others. Not wanting to embarass her anymore she quickly took her hand and lead her out into the empty hallway. "I am really sorry Mira-chan, I just wanted to apologise properly for making you feel uncomfortable. I didnt mean for that at all, I didnt know she was going to do anything like that... I have to go, I have a.. umm... important mission, very important and I might... not come back. I just wanted to make sure you were ok." The clock struck and Haruka looked with annoyed eyes at it and then back at Mira before quickly giving her brow a gentle kiss and dashing off towards the school gate.
