"You're quite a shrewd person, aren't you?" Hayami said to Amy, as they both stand side by side, waiting for the rest to change out from their high school outfit- with the exception of Amy. She decided to remain as high school student a Lil longer. After hearing such a statement from Hayami, she replied

"I rather you call me- a very careful person"

"Hmm, but still, you will definitely land yourself in huge trouble after all of this end..." Hayami said. Not that he was a concern for the girl- rather he was being hopeful that nothing much worse happen to everyone as a whole.

"Fortunate- or maybe, unfortunately, I already am anyway. That's why..."

"Figure...that's why you placed a request for your brother to be part of this 'club' right? Not for info gathering, but for protection..." Hayami said. Knowing Amy, she just stays quiet, rather be silent than answering. He just sighs as he took another sip of his tea.

Shortly after this, all of them will head towards the student council room- in search of the key, as per theorized by Hayami. Amy just showed a smile, as she remembered how happy Mikan was knowing that the warp hole existed.

If only she knew...

"..amy...Amy?" a voice calling out to her, waking her from her train of thoughts. It was Tsubasa, looking at her intently as he was concerned. Since earlier, Amy has been very quiet, albeit exchanging few words with Hayami.

Amy just smiled at Tsubasa as she said "Ah.. sorry about that senpai. They have all changed out of their outfit, I assume?"

"Yeah! Amy! Look, I'm all changed" an excited voice replied, halting Tsubasa from answering. They just smile at each other looking at Mikan's excitement.

"It's not all fun you know. This will mean we will walk straight to the enemy- " Natsume said, as he stands behind Mikan. Hearing this, Mikan replied, without faltering even one bit,

"But! This means there are still chances for us to get antibiotics right? To save them!"

"Yeah... that's why, we need to stay close with each other, alright?" Tsubasa added as he ruffled Natsume hair, ever so slightly, only to earn Natsume's fire lit up close to his hand.

"Yup, now then, let's head to the office- Hayami, you're going to help us," Tono said, as he pulled Hayami's hand, heading towards the exit.

"Whaaa, no way....I am a minomushi"

"Stop throwing a tantrum, you fake introvert. You've helped this much, might as well do it till the end." And so Tono, annoyed, nevertheless drag the self-declared minomushi from his 'cocoon' as they head towards the office.

Accompanied by slowly fade out protest from Hayami, a puzzled Mikan, with Amy and Tsubasa laughing, while Natsume and Ruka remain indifferent.

"Good, just a bit more Tsubasa."

Tono said, as he peak from behind the wall, observing Tsubasa's shadows, forming hand to unlock the door to the student council.

"I'm doing it..." Tsubasa said, focusing his Alice towards the target.

Meanwhile, Hayami already getting ready to leave, as he has done his part, showing them the way. He then looks at them one last time, before he returns, said,

"Be careful..." looking at each of them, until he met Amy's eyes- clearly dropping the 'especially you' before he turns around. Amy just shrugged, Hayami may declare he doesn't care- but in the end, he was the one who was helping the most.

"Got it!" Tsubasa said, retreating back his shadow. Tono then signalled everyone to follow him to the student council.

They quickly run towards the room and sneakily went in. Finally feeling a bit safe, Tono just murmured '...nice, we're finally in'.

Mikan excitedly exclaimed "How fantastic! It's open! And using the shadow too!" Mikan was definitely amazed by Tsubasa's Alice and his capabilities- in which Tsubasa just grinned, happy with the praise.

Amy- who was just about to relax, immediately on guard when she heard a very cold voice, resounding in the room. Everyone froze as a certain someone revealed from behind the blind.

'It's Hotaru's brother?!' they all thought as Subaru slowly stand while asking them,

"Your method of entering this room is not something I really agreed with. Should I have expected this kind of behaviour from all of you? Especially from both of you- Tonouchi... and Amy."

He then paused as he looks at each of them. Momentarily stop when he saw Amy, before sighing for a bit and continue,

"Ah... I supposed the earlier invasion that sparks panic in the high school ground will be you guys then. Just what is the meaning of this, Tonouchi? Why are you here?"

Tonouchi, honestly never have expected that Subaru was here in the student council room, for he thought that guy was still at the hospital, treating the patients. Meanwhile, Amy just maintains her calm facade, already recounting the next thing. Honestly, that's the first time she actually saw Subaru being slightly mad. She knows that he is here, and will question them. But, she never realised that he will actually mad.

Some people may say that he just show an indifferent as always- but in Amy's eyes, he is definitely mad. Due to unexpected reaction from him, she stepped back for a bit out of reflex when a hand suddenly placed on her right shoulder.

She just held her breath for a bit before relaxing, she knows who it is even without looking. And for some reason- she gets this queasy feeling that this guy- Sakurano is also mad. Sakurano, following the short silence after Subaru's questioning, follow up, saying,

"I, also as well interested to know why you're all here"

The others, who just realised of Sakurano presence, slightly shocked as they slowly walked into the room, with Sakurano closing the door behind them.

Once the door is closed, Sakurano walked towards Subaru, standing in front of the table, as amy set up a soundproof barrier inside the room. Tonouchi remains quiet- thinking of the best way to get out of this situation- and to explain. He knows for sure, they must have been the one that has the key.

Is there a way to ask for their help?

Then, a small, determined voice, answered their questions. It was none other than mikan, as she looks straight into their eyes, she said,

"I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I was the one... Who unreasonably bring them here. My best friends, Hotaru chan and Sophie, were injured because of me...so, I came here to track down those people" amy just subtly smile, before walking to the front standing beside her. Amy gives Mikan encouraging pat on her shoulder, just a way to make her feel better.

Though, of course, Subaru and Sakurano, still remain cold, asked,

"But, that does not explain why you both here..."

Then, with a slightly intimidating voice immediately reply, an unexpected answer,

"... the rumour of the ghosts, that's why we're here"
