The cardfight didn't go as smoothly as Misaki planned. She didn't pull the triggers in time or sometimes forget to activate skills. The fight between Aichi and Kamui ended with Kamui's victory and everyone was now watching the fight between Misaki and Miwa. 

By the time the last damage was dealt, everyone was in shock. Misaki just stared at the damage. Battle maiden Sahohime. Misaki just smiled.

" Today's just not my day. You should be happy you finally beat me."  She told Miwa. 

Miwa frowned. " How am I supposed to be happy if I beat you at a bad day?"

Shin just came back carrying a stack of boxes. Misaki got her chance.

" Since Shin's back, I'll see you tomorrow." Misaki took the book that was on the table that Kai was sitting at and ran back to her apartment.

Misaki closed the door quickly and sunk to the floor. She sighed in relief, not knowng what for. In the end, she fell alseep on the floor.

Miwa and Kai walked back together as usual. At first, it was awkward silence until Miwa spoke up..

" Hey Kai."

Kai looked at him in aknowledgement.

" Do you like Misaki?" He asked along with his mischeivious grin.

Kai raised an eyebrow. " What's with the sudden question?"

" There's something wrong with her today."

" That doesn't explain it, Miwa."

" Come on, do you like her?"

" No."

" Why not? She's an amazing cardfighter, she's beautiful, and other than the fact she gets angry easily, she has a great personality. If you would have a girlfriend, it'll definitely be her!" 

Kai rolled his eyes. " Amazing imagination, Miwa. Whatever."

Then Kai asked himself, Does he really like her?

When Misaki woke up, her neck was stiff and her back  hurt. It was already dark.  She stood up and checked the time. 3.04 a.m. She was feeling extra energetic and can't seem to go back to sleep so  she decided to go for a late night walk.

She changed into something other than her school uniform and went out with her book and deck in hand without really noticing.
