Bak was busy, raking up the little space around the school gate while Ward handled another area and consolidating the fliers into a neat pile. She wasn't sure what they should do with them. Throwing all this away seemed like a waste, but she also didn't think bad guys were supposed to recycle things. Burning them was right out because the pile would be so big everyone would be able to see it. Maybe they could put them in a cannon and fire it back at St. Laural's?

She was considering if maybe Luigi had a cannon lying around when she looked up and noticed Clara and Clara. She let the rake clatter to the ground and stared at them for a long moment before lifting her arm and waving hesitantly at the Clara that was floating. The she brought her hands up to her eyes and rubbed them thoroughly before checking to see that the two of them were still there.

They were.

"[b]TOVARISH[/b]!" She let out an earth shaking shout before stomping up to the two of them. Her face rapidly cycled through a bunch of emotions, relief, worry, slight anger, ecstatic happiness, pure confusion, shame, as each one tried to crowd all the others out. "I...we...what happened are you all right? Vittorio has run off, I do not know where, I have not seen Christine since tournament! There is boy here he says he will fight cult man. Luigi has problem he will not tell us about! "Yuuto is being punished by family for what happened. [i]They[/i] know where we are, St' Laural's has attacked us once already." Bak plunged a hand into the flyer pile and pushed one of the invitations Lise's helicopter had dropped into her hands. It just all came out, every worry that Bak had accumulated since the end of the tournament dumped at the feet of the person she had built up in her head to be this pillar of strength. About the only thing she'd left out, the only thing though she had caught before it had passed her lips, was what Bak had done. Inducting new members, for one thing. Passing along her phone to Yuuto, for another. 

After a moment she caught her breath, and finally paid attention to the floating, Clara looking elephant in the room. "I did not know you had younger sister."

"I agree with her the witch being the bait." Nas said. "I feel as though Andras is more likely to panic. A big open space isn't likely to be to our advantage. Remember, he doesn't want to fight. His objective is murder, you can do that just as easily from far away as up close."

"I'm calling King." Ria said at that, whipping out her phone and dialing his number. She prayed he picked up. "He can see the future. That should even up the odds, I think."

"So it's only all right if they get lucky?" Katherine considered. She had never thought of it like that before. Maybe if she could think a little bit more like Christine she wouldn't feel so reluctant to go all out. Though, in that case, the guy would have to be pretty [i]unlucky[/i], wouldn't he?

She looked up to see her sister blushing, and leaned in. "Oooooo, what were you just thinking about? Are you so sure you'd be able to handle a half-nude dude if one just suddenly landed right in front of you?"
