Haruna hates blood, but everything and everyone around her makes her see what she hates the most, blood. That is the main reason why she wants to join Rappappa’s Queen. It sounds weird, right? Because joined Rappappa means she will always fight with another school about territory or another yankee things. But somehow Haruna thinks if she hides in their room, she doesn’t need to know what happen outside. She will be safe in there. And if needs to join the war between her school and another school because of that yankee things, she can lessen it. At least she has some pawns to do the ‘dirty job’.

But her peace is gone when a transferred student joins her school. It isn’t Daruma, a girl who looks like a demon, like what everyone thinks. But the other girl who wearing glasses named Maeda Atsuko who will create ruckus in her school.

Haruna already knows it since beginning, but she reminds silent and decides not to tell Sado, the vice president of their school, about that. It is not because she doesn’t respect Sado who takes the lead when their president takes a break, but like what it said in the beginning, Haruna hates blood. She doesn’t want to fight with Maeda, except it needed.

But at the same time, Haruna knows, Sado isn’t fool. Sooner or later she will find out about that.

Either way Haruna also knows Maeda is really strong. If that girl successfully destroys her barricade, Haruna has no choice but to fight one on one with her as Rappappa’s Queen. Haruna hates it because it means… she needs to wake up the monster that she locks inside.

“Something is bothering you?” Black, another Rappappa’s Queen, asks Haruna.

Haruna just glances at Black and shakes her head while keep playing with quills in her hand.

“Don’t worry, you don’t need to wake ‘her’ up,” Shibuya says, knowing what inside Haruna’s mind. “We will destroy her before she can reach you.”

Haruna only nods.

“And you know… Gekikara will free from jail soon,” Black says. “It’s enough to stop her.”

Once again Haruna only nods. She knows very well, all the queens of Rappappa is strong and loves to fight or even see blood, unlike her. But she also knows, how strong Maeda is. Since she has ability to read other mind, she knows very well what might happen. She already see the past of Maeda when she found her book. Someone stole it and accidentally dropped it in hallway. Luckly, no one notice what Haruna done to her book.

“Maeda is really strong, isn’t it?” Sado suddenly joins their conversation, ruin Haruna's thought. “But it will be more fun if we can destroy her, right? Beside, before she could step that stairs, she will find another enemy here. Many people hate to lose here.”

Haruna just sighs heard her friends that look like have bloodlust. She doesn’t want to hear it, but this is how they usually talks when new fighter comes to their school.

“But I’m wondering, what Torigoya will see in Maeda’s past,” Shibuya whispers in Haruna’s ear.

BADUM!!!

Haruna’s heart thumps loudly. It’s not because of excitement but like something inside wants to come out.

‘Haruna…’ Someone whispers inside her mind.

Haruna holds her head tightly, trying to stop ‘her’ to coming.

“Stop it!” Sado holds Shibuya’s shoulder, seeing Haruna's reaction. “You also don’t want to see your nightmare, right? Stop disturbing her!”

Haruna glances at Sado and Shibuya who standing not far away from her. She knows Shibuya will stop because she always afraid with Sado, especially when Sado start using her hand not .

“Don’t mad at her, Sado,” Haruna stops them. “IF needed, I will let ‘her’ comes. You will wake ‘her’ up, right?”

“Yuko won’t agree,” Sado says. “You know that.”

Yuko that they mentioned is Majisuka High School’s president, their leader. At the moment, she is in hospital due to her condition. Not because someone beat her, but disease. It’s funny actually to know someone as strong as her can be defeat by disease.

Haruna only shrugs her shoulder. “But she isn’t here, right? You take the lead. I can’t do anything if you decide to wake ‘her’ up.”

“That will be the last thing I will do,” Sado promises.

Haruna only shrugs her shoulder and plays with quills in her hand again. She knows very well, Sado will wake 'her' up if Maeda as strong as she thinks. Haruna has no choice if that is Sado's decision even Torigoya is a taboo name for her.

‘Haruna…’

Once again someone whispers inside Haruna’s mind every time someone or even she mentions that name. Haruna only shakes her head to stop ‘her’ to come out.
