Was Nina's secret revealed?! ---------------------------------- Teacher: Oh, the 2nd trimester has started. Nina: Hey Ayu-chan... Teacher: Every 3rd year student finally, this time, turn this way. Ayu: WHAT?! Another freaky letter came? Nina: Yeah. But this time it said "Go back to the Magic Kingdom." ---------------------------------- Teacher: Continuing, I will introduce a newly appointed teacher. Ayu: THIS IS TOTALLY BAD!!! Nina: Yeah...what should I do? Teacher: Kirishima Mito. She will be replacing Yoshioka-sensei who is on maternity leave, and 2nd year 1st group students's homeroom, and she will be teaching 2nd year mathematics. Nina: (Eh? Kirishima?) Mito: Nice to meet you all. Nina: AHHH! It's Mito!!!! ---------------------------------- Ayu: You know her? Kirishima? Could it be...? Nina: Yeah! It's Yuta's older sister, Mito!!! Yuta: ... Guy1: Oooh she's pretty. Guy2: Lucky 1st group. *SMILE* ---------------------------------- Mito: Ohhh, you're Ayu-chan! And this guy is Tsujiai-kun, right? Nice to meet you guys! Tsujiai:No problem. Ayu: Oh the pleasure is mine. Nina: But I was surprised! You came to this world!!! Yuta: Yeah I was surprised too. Suddenly yesterday you appear with huge suitcases and tell me that you're gonna be a teacher at my school starting tomorrow... Mito: But look, I have a teaching licence and I was looking for work and isn't this [PUUTAROO]? When you guys came home for summer vacation, I got jealous listening to your fun stories about this world. So I thought I'd try looking for work here. Also our parents were worried about Yuta living alone so they agreed that this was a good idea. Yuta: (What a great annoyance.) (My room just got smaller and I just got use to living by myself.) ---------------------------------- Ayu: Aren't there enough teachers in this world? Is it easier to looking for a job here than over there? Mito: Not neccessarily. I asked a coordinator and with my magic powers I crawled around. I don't hold good with that hand. Nina: But I'm happy. Mito came! Mito: Thank you, Nina Me too. *WAIWAI* Yuta: So two magic drop outs meet. Ayu: Hey! This isn't a happy occassion! What are you going to do about your letters?! Nina: Oh yeah. Mito: Letters? ---------------------------------- Tsujiai:"Go back to the Magic Kingdom" huh? This person just doesn't know that she uses magic, but also she's from the Magic Kingdom. Yuta: Just who in the hell is it? Ayu: Are there anymore students studying abroad aside from Nina and Yuta? Yuta: Well that's impossible. It's just a general rule that one student per a school. Magic Kingdom natives are considered on a non biased view based on location. Tsujiai:But there's 3 of you here... Mito: But there are secret ways to bypass. Like fool the coordinator and money. Ayu: Then there might be other people. Nina: No. There isn't anyone else besides us at this school. I haven't met anyone else. ---------------------------------- Ayu: How do you know? Nina: Somehow there's a distinction. It's like syncing with someone on the wavelength, right? Yuta: Yeah. Like when I'm on the street I definitely know if someone were from the Magic Kingdom. Tsujiai:Then, what about people like me and Tateishi who know about this? What about the Study Abroad Center person? The Coordinator? Those people know everything. Yuta: But for what purpose? They don't have a motive. Ayu: The purpose is to send Nina back home, right? If we like think like that... *Chatter* Nina: AHHHHH! IT'S FINE! ENOUGH! CALM DOWN! ---------------------------------- Nina: I'm sorry. Just forget it, everyone. Ayu: But Nina... Nina: I don't know about thinking about it. It's so annoying. It's just full of bad feelings. There's no real harm anyway. If it comes to that, if I use my magic I'll be fine. Mito: That's true too. Ayu: That's right, you can use magic. Just weird chocolate balls though. Yuta: That's too sweet. What if that loser also uses magic too? Mito: But he threatened with a letter. What a coward. What is it? He's a loser. Nina: True! It's all right to relax. Besides, Mito came all the way here. Think about the fun times! Mito: Waai! Agreed! Yuta: ... ---------------------------------- Yuta: Tsujiai. We just can't end it here. There must be something else we can do. Will you watch her for me? I'm in a different class from her and I can't always watch over her. ---------------------------------- Tsujiai:Yeah I got it. Yuta: Arigatou! For the favor. Tsuajiai:He... ---------------------------------- Guy1: Aaaah! Mito-sensei! Guy2: You're looking as beautiful today. Girl1: You're so cool~! Mito: (Muwahaha. I'm so suddenly popular.) (Me being a teacher is my calling.) (Thinking about coming here was a good one.) (When did I find a job here.) ---------------------------------- Mito: Mikami-sensei *heart* Mikami: Kirishima-sensei. How is the new trimester going? Mito: Not bad. Mikami: Oh yeah, the welcoming party. Is this Friday okay? I'm arranging it, but... Mito: Yeah it's okaaay! Mikami: Do you have any requests? Like what you want to eat? Mito: Anything's fine. I'm all right. But instead of the whole faculty, I'd rather just have you alone. ---------------------------------- Mito: Are you free today? Shall I take you to a club with an atmosphere where we, as adults can have fun? Mikami: Heeeh. Uhm, I'm sorry... Since I've graduated, I don't know anything about those types of places. I'm sorry. So then Friday! ---------------------------------- Mito: (No pulse?) Nina: Mito! We sa~w! *heart* You and Mikami-sensei's good feelings... Mito: But he rejected the date. Does he have a girlfriend? Ayu: Ah, probably. Tamura, the health teacher. I took his picture with the camera that tells the person you like. Mito: Tamura-sensei? I get it. He likes that chubby body type and the goody goody image. The~n, a beautiful gal like is nothing to him. Ayu: You said it. ---------------------------------- Nakamura: ... ---------------------------------- Nina: Ah! Sayaka-chan! Nakamura: Oh! Nina: This is Yuta's girlfriend, Nakamura Sayaka. Mito: Yuta's? Nakamura: Hello. Mito: You're a pretty one too! Please take care of my little brother. Nakakura: Oh no way. My pleasure. ---------------------------------- Mito: (She's a really pretty girl.) (But although he stopped chasing Nina, he's going out with another girl.) (What an unworthy brother.) Nina: Did you know that she was Yuta's older sister? Nakamura: Yeah! I heard from Yuta. So...I'll be going to class Nina: Oh I'm so sorry! We kept you! Nakamura: Bye! ---------------------------------- Ayu: Wha...that's weird. Kaji: What's wrong? Ayu: I'm missing my hankerchief. I thought it was in my pocket... Kaji: Did you leave it somewhere? Ayu: Probably. I used it before my clubs. It's okay. Lately, I've been losing things. I'm such a scatterbrain. It must be something disturbing. Kaji: HUH? Ayu: Oh no, nevermind!! Kaji: Thanks for walking me home. Ayu: I'll see ya tomorrow. Kaji: Yeah bye bye. ---------------------------------- ---------------------------------- Ayu: (Since that, we haven't been all "lovey-lovey") (Maybe I think that maybe I don't like it?) (I haven't done anything. No no. It's not like I don't want it.) (But I haven't done anything I didn't want to do...uhm...uhm..) *RING*RING* Ayu: Yeah? Nina: Hello? It's Nina. Can you come to my house right now? Mito's going to take us out a night on the town tonight! Ayu: A night on the town? ---------------------------------- Ayu: (So I came...) Are there any places where junior high school kids can go to for a night on the town? Nina: What are you saying, Ayu-chan? We're using magic! Mito: Because of this we're going to go place. Mito: PRACTICE! Nina: Mito doesn't use choco-balls, but supplments! {Translator's note: "sapuri" means vitamin supplements I think...} Ayu: Why? Nina: Because chocolate makes you fat. ---------------------------------- Mito: Okay eat these. *PON* ---------------------------------- Ayu: What what? Nina: Wa~i! I'm 20!!! Ayu: 20?! Nina: Yup! This is Ayu's face in 6 years! Ayu: ... Mito: Then me too! *CHEW* *PON* Mito: So, let's go! Ayu: Can...I go out walking like this? Mom: Go safely! Dad: Be careful! ---------------------------------- Mito: You dodged your kiss? You turned your face? Yeaaahh, you just denied a guy. You couldn't just make up courage with a little lie? You'll want to do it in high school. Ayu: Oh really? I wonder what I should do. Mito: You mean if you could say that you want to kiss? Ayu: I can't say it! Like wanting it. Mito: Muwahaha, it's okay. You're all innocent. Ayu: That's so mean Sensei! I was just honestly asking you for advice! Mito: HAHAHA I'm sorry. ---------------------------------- Tamura: Huh? Kirishima-sensei? Mito: Uhm....you are? Tamura: Ahh you don't know? I'm Tamura! Ayu: Ta..! Mito: TAMURA-SENSEI!! ---------------------------------- Tamura: What a chance that we meet here. Mito: Are you with Mikami-sensei? He said that when he graduated he went to clubs... Tamura: Oh. It seems like he'd like do it, but I'm not interested. Mito: Do you hate Mikami-sensei? Tamura: It's not that I hate him, but I don't have a thing for him. He's not bad looking, but he can't make a decision and he's so old fashioned. But if his looks aren't bad, but he'd be cooler, I think. Mito: Yeah there are those guys. Misunderstanding type. Tamura: Aren't there!!! ---------------------------------- Tamura: Laters! Mito: Yay!!! Tamura sensei's not interested! She's not the goody goody person type! Yes! I'll try harder! Though she was kinda harsh on him though. Isn't this good? I love old fashioned guys! Materinal instinct encouragement! Where's Nina? Ayu: Huh? Speaking of her...she's not here. *WAAA* ---------------------------------- *POPOPOPOPON* Guy1: That's amazing. Magic! Nina: Ehheh. Girl1: How did you do it? Ayu: Nina! What are you doing?! Nina: Ayu-hyan! Ayu: Did you have alcohol? Nina: Noo, I didn'tttttt. Just summm sweeeet juice. Ayu: Mito-sensei! We gotta go! Mito: But I wanna hang around some more... Nina: Let's stay! Let's stay! Ayu: No!!! ---------------------------------- Yuta: Nina, come with me. Yuta: Did you transform and go out with Mito last night? But you were aiming and you got too happy didn't you? {Translator's note: "nerawareru" is not an easy verb...I haven't gotten a good answer for it.} Nina: "nerawareteru" is an extrageration. It's just a freaky letter that came. Besides I seemed to have gotten drunk and without a computer used magic. It went well as I wasn't conscious. Usually I over think it... ---------------------------------- Yuta: YOU USED MAGIC IN FRONT OF PEOPLE!? Nina: Uh...I didn't heard that from Mito... Yuta: WHY ARE YOU CARELESS? ~~~~~~ ---------------------------------- Yuta: I was worried! PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER FOR ME! ---------------------------------- To be continued!!! Oh WOW. Yuta made a move! On Nina!
