Summary:
Homura is a troublemaker who likes to create chaos, but Fujino knows there were no lies in his words fifteen minutes ago, and that Yuuki will only get more dangerous as each second passes.
That is why Nao’s time not just as a HiME or as a student on Ehime but as a human on Earth itself must come to an end.
"Don't worry, Natsuki..."
Shizuru smiles, brick-red eyes blank yet a gripping sight like splattered dried blood on white flooring.
She won't let anyone hurt Natsuki ever again.
SLIDING HER FINGERS DOWN the tip and edges of her crimson naginata, Shizuru stands on top of one of Kiyohime’s heads, looking down at the empty streets of the downtown district as her Child slithers its way to the location where Shizuru’s beloved has been restrained.
“I’ve already told most of the other girls, so now it’s your turn to know, dear Shizuru…you better do your best to fight in the honor of that girl you’re obsessed over, because when a HiME loses her Child the person most precious to her too will leave her life.”
She can still remember the shock and anguish she felt when Nagi told her of the fate that awaits every HiME. Of the twelve girls who have been chosen, only one will be allowed to stand on top, while eleven will be left without the loved ones they’ve kept in their hearts.
That means Natuski might expire before her eyes if she's not careful enough.
“If only I had stuck to my original plan of locking you up in my estate,” Shizuru laments to herself as she presses her thumbprint hard onto one of the sharp points of her weapon, “then that insecure little girl keeping you hostage never would’ve been even an inch near you…”
While most of the other HiMEs formed large alliances that later broke and turned into a battle royal, for the most part, Shizuru sat alone and separated herself from their journey, only intervening whenever it was obvious that her wonderful Natsuki had gotten herself in a bind—usually literally when it came to Nao Yuuki.
Every time, though, Shizuru lectured and warned Nao the way an older sister would to her younger sibling, as she gave pity to the fact that a middle schooler could be filled with so much rage and fiendish wants, never striking her blade too hard towards her even as the number of incidents involving gullible men tricked into alleyways and abandoned buildings where they'd be wrapped up in thick silk increased.
Acts of mercy that Shizuru quickly regretted.
"She's really something, that Nao"—the boy's grin never fell off his face—"I warned her of what would await her if she kept trying to antagonize Natsuki, and she just laughed it off and told me to mind my own business."

Chuckling to herself, she orders Kiyohime to stop at a neglected building covered in spiderwebs, scarlet from her finger leaking downhill the blade of her naginata.
