Date a Live x Some Random Guy

Strategy Meeting

With class wrapping up, Burchard moves his deck back and looks up to thank Yuzuru for her help but to his surprise, her seat was now empty. He looks up and is just barely able to make out the outline of his Seat mate along with her twin sister, another girl with long purple hair and a blue haired boy. Ironically enough these were all the people whose eyes he felt staring at him for pretty much the whole day but before he could think about it, he gets distracted from this thought by something he sees on the ground.

Meanwhile, Yuzuru, Kaguya, Shido and Tohka all huddle outside the classroom where they try and figure out what was going on, though having a funny feeling about this, Shido holds up his phone and asks, "kotori? Mind telling us what's going on?"

After a brief pause, a nervous sounding kotori replies, "uh... I don't know what you're talking about?"

Unfazed Shido demands, "kotori.... If you don't tell me what's going on right now, I'm not making your favourite dessert anymore."

Another brief pause unfolds until a whimpering kotori responds, "big brother? How could you be so cruel???"

Still unfazed, Shido responds, "kotori...."

She sighs disheartedly then says, "fine.... I hear you got a new transfer student."

Angered by the response, Yuzuru snaps, "demand: tell yuzuru what you did!!!"

Caught off guard by the sudden outburst from the usually neutral Yuzuru, Shido and Kaguya stare back at her shocked while Kotori responds, "geez Yuzuru, you don't need to be so hostile, especially since you were so happy today?"

Shido, Tohka and Kaguya all simultaneously shiver as a thick dark aura starts emanating from Yuzuru as she glares at the phone while demanding, "kotori...."

Starting to panic, Kotori blurts out, "fine fine! Just cool it."

After another pause along with the sound of typing, Kotori then continues, "I'm guessing you wanna know about Burchard?"

Shido replies, "is there anything else it could be?"

A bit annoyed, Kotori says, "geez, you don't need to add all the sass. Okay.... so after he went missing during the school trip incident, we scoured the whole island with drones but couldn't find any trace of him.... Then just yesterday, one of our techs got word that a boy matching his description was found aimlessly walking around the resort town in bad shape and was rushed to a hospital here in Tengu City where, aside from a few scrapes and bruises, he was diagnosed with amnesia. Seeing as what happened to him was technically our fault and had too many questions for him to count, we made the decision to move him here and enroll him in your class."

They all listen to what Kotori has to say and even though much of it didn't make sense, Kaguya noticing something and asks, "Hang on, why didn't you tell us any of this until now?"

Silence emanates from the phone though it is cut by Kotori's awkward chuckle until Shido finally asks, "was this some sort of test?"

Feeling accused she snaps back, "Of course not!.... Everything just happened so quickly that I didn't have time to give a thorough explanation!!!"

He can almost feel her crossing her arms and looking away from her monitor while continuing, "geez big bro, I had to do so much to pull all this together and get him properly settled but instead of a thank you I get attitude!!!"

Starting to feel bad, shido responds, "sorry, I didn't mean to...."

He gets cut off by Kotori shouting, "you'd better be sorry!!! And I'm expecting my favourite dessert when I get...."
