"Ah, right." You nod, chasing to walk after her.

"Good morning miss Harlown!"
"Good morning to you to." Fate replies to the random student who had called out in greeting. Content, he walked away with a smile on his face.
"You sure are popular." You comment out loud. "That was what? The fourth, fifth student to greet you in five minutes?"
"It's nothing really...." She mumbles.
"Good morning!" Another student, a regular teenage girl greets. "Wow, I think this is the first time I've seen Fate walk with a boy. Are the two of you going out?"
Dammit....
You really should have expect it. Still doesn't stop the heat from rising up to your cheek.
"Eh? Um, no! W-We're just walking to class together!" You say embarrassed, tilting your head to the side in a vain attempt to look at any where but the girl.
She slowly nods her head before a smirk comes onto her face.
"That's what I thought!" She yells, "And besides, if you're going out with anybody it's Nanoha isn't it?"
"What! No!"
"Ah, we have to head to class now." Fate cuts in, saving you from further embarrassment. "I'm sorry."
"Heh, I see how it is." She says slyly. "Alright, see the two of you later!"
She waves before taking off to her own classroom. You and Fate just stand in momentary silence on what had just transpired.
"So.... strange girl." You comment, attempting to make some sort of conversation. "Did you catch her name?"
"I'm afraid I didn't." Fate responds, continuing to walk. "Come on, class is up ahead."

"Good morning everyone." Fate greets everyone inside the class room.
"Good morning!" They greet back with a smile. Before you knew what was going on, a hoard of people had begun to mob Fate and pushed you down. Fate gives you a worried look but you just flash a thumbs up to her in order to tell her your fine before beginning to walk to your deck in the mob of people.
After five fruitless attempts, you somehow managed to make it through and collapse on your desk. A group of boys give you a pitying glance before resuming their talks on... the ethics of democracy?
Well fuck you to! It's not like you wanted to join in on their discussion! You've seen and heard of thousands of governments!
...Huh, the bell should ring soon. Hopefully things will calm down then-
"Yuuno..." A familiar voice growls throughout the school. You instantly stand up as a shiver crawls down your spine before trying to figure out escape options.
Fate just looks at you as more and more killing intent begins to wave throughout the school, the foot steps of a devil begin to make itself known. You trapped in this room and have nowhere to run. All eyes are watching you before Nanoha opens the back door, boken in hand.
"Uh... Nanoha! Sorry about leaving without telling you!" You say in an attempt to pacify her. "I didn't know, I swear!"
She says nothing and begins to walk towards you, everyone stepping out of the way of the rampaging devil.
"Yuuno," She says with fake sweetness. "Mind telling me why there's rumors of you going out with Fate?"
So that's what this is- wait WHAT?!
"False, all false!" You yell. Out of the corner of your eye you can see Fate blushing up a storm but no one questions her as their sights are all locked between you and Nanoha.
You can see Nanoha charging up her sword for a quick swing to your head.
You know these movements! You can dodge this!
As soon as she begins to move, you jump on to a desk. Narrowly avoiding a downward strike. Nanoha pauses before doing a horizontal spin attack. The sheer killing intent cuts off the desk's legs and you begin a quick decent to the floor.
You make a break for it and run your fastest to get out of the class room. Everyone stares in shock as you run out of the backdoor, Nanoha chasing after you in attempt to punish you.
"Divine Buster!"
"Heee!"
***
"Huff...huff..." You pant, sliding your back against the wall. The bell rings signalling the beginning of class but a small sense of fear keeps you from going back.
...Where are you? It looks to be an empty hallway but you don't recognize this place. Then again, you don't recognize half the stuff around here.
[] Stay where you are.
[] Attempt to head back to class.
[] Exploration!
