File 4: Every Plan is An Assassination

"Sorry that we are late for this lesson, sir." Miku, Chiharu and Katsuki bow in front of a young man with light blue hair.

"It's fine. I know you girls have talent, which is excellent. I would like to know if you are using bloodlust the right way, though." The light blue haired man says. His name is Nagisa Shiota. "There will be a friend of mine coming in at any time soon to test your physical skills in combat. This exercise can help us understand what the skill that you are best at is." "Hai! (Yes, sir!)" The group of girls says in unison. Just after that, a push on the door and a red hair man, wearing western clothes with a splendid scarlet tie approaches Nagisa, "Nagisa, long time no see!" "Karma! That was great timing. Are you prepared for a match of combat?" "I am always ready." Karma takes off his jacket.

"This is Karma Akabane. He will be testing your skills in teamwork and in combat. You ready girls?" Nagisa asks. "Sure are." Chiharu answers in perfect British English. "So, you girls are up to high standards, or so I've heard. Bring it on." Chiharu meets eyes with Miku and Katsuki, and they both nod, like a silent oath was made in their minds. Katsuki rushes towards Karma with stealthy speed like a shadow and starts her attacks on the tall red-head. The dagger dots straight at the deadly spots. Every time Karma trys to deflect, the blade swiftly moves to another spot. Karma smiles like a devil, "That is really fast. Your attacks are superb, I must say." Then, from behind, a white figure appears behind Karma and kicks his butt. "Ichi! (One!)" Calls Chiharu then jumps back and throws two pieces of rope to Miku. "Ni! (Two!)" Katuski swiftly crawls, and attack as the same position as Nagisa did in the past, clawing her hand over the eyes of Karma and stably controlling the pressure that locks Karma's legs in place. "San! (Three!)" Miku bounds the wrists, and then the ankles. Then she pushes the legs through the loop the bounded wrists made, and turn the front bounded form into the arrest form. "Sorry, Karma-san, but checkmate," Katsuki whispers into Karma's ear with a hissing tone with an English accent. "This match is over." Nagisa stops the match.

"You really got me girls." Karma exclaims, "Your teamwork is flawless. I can get a rough idea of the roles now, who is who." Karma points to Katsuki, "Short-range weapons." Then turns and points at Chiharu, "Long-range weapons." Then points at Miku, "I would say that you have mischief and swords, your tying techniques brings down heavy blows of pain, like a cut from an axe or a sword." "Okee, I'm fine with that." Miku says with casualty. "Let me get this straight first. Who made this plan? It is genius!" "Oh, I made it long time ago. It is considered an old three-step trick." Chiharu says. "Well you girls are wonderful. Nagisa, you have a good eye." "You know I won't miss the talents when I see one." "Well, I better get going, I have some stuff to sort out, so I'm taking a quick leave. Bye Nagisa!" "Bye Karma." Nagisa closes the door.

The sky turns golden and then scarlet. It's getting dark as they train. "We better get back home fast. Thank you, Nagisa Sensei!" "Bye!"
