"...I'm going to tell you the same thing we told Moka," you slowly begin.
You remain silent to better draw Tsukune's attention, and indeed he leans forward, all but desperate to hear what you have to say.
You then stare him dead in the eyes, and with the finality of a death sentence, you tell him straight out: "You need to gather up Moka and Kurumu, and you need to tell them everything you just told us."
Mizore, seated next to you, nods. "If you really care that much for both of them," she says with as much seriousness as you've ever heard out of her, "then you owe it to them. You have to tell Moka and Kurumu what you really feel."
Tsukune closes his eyes, before resting his head in his hands for several seconds. Eventually, however, he opens his eyes again, and you can't see any hesitation in them. "You're right," he admits with a nod. "Both of you are completely right. Kurumu and Moka both deserve to know where we all stand with each other."
At that time, the warning bell for classes goes off, and Tsukune gets up ahead of you. "In the back of my head," he says with a smile, "I kind of always knew that. But... I guess I needed to hear it coming from someone else. Senpai, Mizore... Thanks."
With those words, Tsukune leaves for class, and you part ways with Mizore as well.
Though your paths may split for the moment, before long they will surely reconnect....

As you head into your homeroom class, Ginei Morioka steps in front of you. He takes careful effort to remain out of your reach, but nevertheless seems quite smug. If not for the crowd, you'd be delighted to punch his face in, but he raises his hands in a gesture of surrender.
"I don't want to have to see your mug either," he says with an annoying sneer, "but I was asked to give you a message. Remember that time when you wiped out the Wrestling Club before summer?"
You nod; Mizore still wears the referee whistle around her neck.
"I do. And?"
You can feel your Stand beginning to stir in response to your mutual dislike, but you clamp down and suppress it.
"And," Morioka replies, "they've got a new Captain, and they're looking for a rematch."
The perverse werewolf doesn't say 'or else', but he doesn't have to. If the new Wrestling Club captain is anything like the thieving thug who ran it before, you have no doubt that they'll resort to taking hostages to get what they want.
You're more than confident in your own power, whether it's Hamon or your Stand. This is surely only a formality.
[]Accept the challenge on the Wrestling Club's own turf. Finish this business where it began, before this can escalate and involve any of your friends.
[]...you know what? Fuck the wrestling club and whatever grievance they think they have. Chopper robbed your own Mechanics Club, and you made him pay for it.
