»after the video game challenge«

----•Asami's p.o.v.•----

"..." I was damn speachless.

I couldn't believe I lost! I was so sure I could win! I won the first game challenge, how'd I lose!? Did he cheat!?

"Hahaha told you Asa-chan~," he was gloating, "but don't feel bad Asa-chan. I haven't had a chance to get serious for a long time now~! You made it difficult for me to win hahaha~!"

"Damn you! How could I lose? I love Blazblue and Naruto! Gahhh!" I lowered my head and messed up my hair, trying to comprehend how he beat me? "you... you let me on didn't you! You made think I would win!"

I pointed to the clown, which in returned made a face that said, 'Me? Oh no I couldn't have', then just laughed. I hate him... He stopped laughing and started grinnin which I knew he did do it, "Of course! Always give your opponent a false sense of security. Then when you time it right, you snatch victory for yourself hahaha!"

"Bastard..." I threw a cushion at he's face. And blushed out of frustration. I let my emotion get the best of me, that's why I lost. As much as I hate to admit it, its my fault. Why didn't I realize my mistake?

"How about we start our next challenge Asa-chan?" He held out he's hand and showed me to follow him. He lead me to a small round table, with two very confy looking chair next to then window. And the sunlight made he's glass chess board sparkle.

"Chess. This time I'll win," I brushed my bangs aside collecting myself again so I wouldn't lose then smirking up at the clown, "I'm the best when it comes to chess. And this time I'll win to prove it."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk," he 'tsk' me! That ass!

"Don't 'tsk' me you butt-face!" I snarled at him. And sending him murderous glances.

"I thought by winning you, you wouldn't get ahead of yourself. Sadly I'm disappointed Asa-chan," he pouted. The hell...

"Hmph," I put my hand on the chess board then my smirked widen even more. He noticed it, and looked puzzled by the looks of it, "I'm sure I'll win. You know how you said I could choose any challenge I want?"

I will use this to my advantage. I will win no matter what.

He nodded, trying to understand where I was going with this. I just simply asked, "Do you have four other chess boards? And a large enough table to place all four chess boards?"

"Why?" He asked, yet he poofed up four more chess boards and a big enough table for th er boards. So he's able to use magic too? Well he is a demon after all. And I'll ask later if I get the chance. If I remember too.

"I came across this when I was reading one of my favorite series," I started explaining, "I don't want to have to go into detail, but if I have to, I will explain. But I will ask, have you heard of 'The Demonata Series by Darren Shan'?"

"I have, but it was not of my taste. It never caught my interest so I never bother with reading it," he crossed he's arms and looked at me rather bore, "So what's you're point Asa-chan?"

I started setting up the other chess boards, "In that series there is a demon lord called Lord Loss. And a curse a certain family and most family members have. They turn into savage, mindless werewolf. And in order to end the curse they're family members have to play chess with this demon, for he has the power to undo that curse. He is also the only demon that will hear then out without killing them first. But if they lose, they're killed along with the child their trying to help. The families are raised playing chess so if it comes to trying to undo the curse, they have a chance to win Lord Loss. But, he's a master and only one person from their whole family has ever beaten him and freed many from that curse. But one must to play by he's rules and dimension. And this here what I'm doing, is how he loves to play. And how I prefer to play chess. "

I finished setting them up and looked at the clown. He had an amuse look on his face, "Interesting, I have never tried this... But you sure you'll be able to handle it my dear Asa-chan?"

"I've mastered this, at the Vatican no one could beat me. Even with one board. And I am confident I will be able to win you," smirking I walk to the board I wanted to start, "the thing about this is, we take turns choosing which board we want to change to. How about it then?"

"Again, dont go counting victory just yet," he seemed really pleased by it. Enough for him to be a challenge for me, "I'm also quite good a chess, infact, you could say I play chess through out real life."

"If so, hope you don't disappoint me clown."

"Shouldn't I be saying that?" Smirking while I grinned we both processed with the statting of the game.

»half and hour later«

"So far you're in the lead, clown..." I wasn't worried. In chess one has to have a calm, collect mind. If not, game over. I learn that from our eariler challenge.

"It seems that way, looks like I'll win Asa-chan heh heh."

»two hours and a half«

I seems like I lost boards one and three. But I still have a chance. Its all or nothing.

"Still thinking you can win Asa-chan?" He was getting full of himself, but he still kept his head in the game. Calm and surprisingly serious out of character for the clown. No time for distraction.

"I still have boards two, four and five. If I win them, its over for you."

"Good luck Asa-chan. You'll need it."

»three hours«

Its been three hours and my fever from ealier is now taking effect. Its alot stronger and I was close to passing out a couple of times. The clown didn't notice which was good. And I did my best to not show it too. Didn't want this game to stop. He was a good opponent, which I haven't seen in a long time. I was pleased.

I won two boards and he won two boards as well. One more board to go. It was almost over too... Well, to be exact it was over for him...

"Checkmate..." I said with a victorious smirk. Trying my best to hide the fact the fever its at its peek.

"Huh!?" He stood up, slaming hands on the table, eyes widen and him analyzing the board.

"'Always give your opponent a false sense of security. Then when you time it right, you snatch victory for yourself,' aren't those the same exact same words you said to me in our first match?" I couldn't help but snicker at him as he kept trying to see if it was true.

"HOW!?" He was freaking out big time, "I was watching you're every move, how!?"

"Simple conversations you and I had," I stood up place my hands on the table and leand in close to the clown, "is enough to distract the mind if you're not 100% focused on a task heh."

----*Mephisto's p.o.v.*----

"Simple conversations you and I had," she stood up placing her hands on the table and leaned in close to me, "is enough to distract the mind if you're not 100% focused on a task or game at hand heh."

Having her face close to me made me blush slightly. I backed away a bit, "s-still..." I found myself speachless and I really wanted to stay close to her, but I couldn't. She made me act sheepishly. I was then cut off my thoughts do to her bumping into me. Strange, I was startled by that but automatically grabbed her catefully, "Hey, you ok Asami!?"

There was no reply from her, so I turned her to face me and the I saw it. She was panting heavyly, so quickly I placed my forhead on her and felt it. She was burning up! "Asami hang in there!"

Panic flowed into me so I rushed her over to my bed and set her down gently. Still freaking out I barely manage to remember how to treat this. Is 'treat' even the right word to use in this case? That doesn't matter now! "I know, I'll call Yukio and Shura!" Pulling out my cell I quickly texted them, 'SHURA! Hurry over here its Asa-chan DX !!!' That was the first text, the next was, 'YUKIO!!! Come quickly hurry, hurry HURRY!!! DX'

Just calm down, they'll be here. And Asa-chan will be ok... Its my fault, why didn't I see she was feeling bad from the start? If I didn't make her come here, she'd probably be ok... Tsk... Forgive me Asa-chan...

----»half an hour later«----

----»Asami's room«----

I was pacing back and forth, messing with my top hat in my hands. Shura was sitting on the sofa close to Asa-chan's room. Waiting for Yukio to come out and tell us everything was ok. And as I thought, speaking of the devil, he came out.

"She'll be ok, her fever wasn't that high. She'll just need rest though," Yukio announced to both Shura and me as he came out of her room. Shuting the door to her room behind him. We were both freaking out, but with he's news we eased up a bit. We were able to breathe calmly again.

"This is all you're fault damn Raven!" Shura growled at me and death glared me. I did deserve that, it was my fault after all, "You're right Shura. And that's is why I'll make sure she's ok from here on out."I was serious.

Shura rushed over to me and pulled me by my shirt collar, "You've done enough. How could you not know she wasn't feeling well, huh? You stay away and I'll take care of her, leave." She snarled at me.

Sighing, I closed my eyes. Then re-opened and I death glared Shura. I noticed her stiffen a bit, and I softly spoke with a sinister vibe, "I could kill you if you weren't important to Asami. So I won't but as the chairman here and you're superior, I order you to leave and go back to teaching before I lose my patience, Miss Shura..." With a gulp and a hiss Shura let go of me, turned slowly and walked towards the door. But not before saying under her breath, "Fucker..."

"Hmph... Yukio please go back to the classroom. I'm sure I can handle it from here on out," I smirked.

"If anything comes up, don't hesitate to call me again Lord Pheles."

"Thanks again Yukio," I walked him out. Slowly closing the door, I just stood infront of that door. Thinking, but came back to my senses, "I'll take water incase she wakes up and needs some."

Walking over to the kitchen and I started searching. Which, by the looks of it... it would be hard to find water or a water bottle. So after a mess, I decided to poof up a water bottle. She needed to buy water.

I opened the door to Asa-chan's room slowly. And peeked my head in and saw she was still sleeping, just with the cover removed a bit. So smiling, I walked over to her, kneeled down and coveres her again.

I noticed her clothing had changed, she was wearing a kimono. I'm guessing Shura changed her into them. Smiling I took her hand into mine, "Forgive me Asami..." I lowered my hand and just stayed there.

"What happen to Asa-chan..?" I shot my head up slightly and looked at Asami, who for some reason, was smiling at me!?

----•Asami's p.o.v.•----

I felt someone hold my hand tightly yet gently, followed up by, "Forgive me Asami..." I opened my eyes slowly and saw the clown with he's head lowered. I don't know what overwhelmed me, but I smiled at him slightly, "What happen to Asa-chan..?"

"Asami! You ok?" The clown started to worry and slightly freak out, which de me chuckle a bit. Still daze from the fever.

"Why you stop calling me Asa-chan?" I asked again, knowing the answer all too well.

He looked at me confused with some tears in he's eyes, which of course were he's fake tears... I think, "Cause you won, and because its my fault you're here... Sorry Asami."

I lifted my arm and pointed a finger. Which caught the clown's attention quickly. At an opening, I flicked he's forehead which he yelped a bit and rubbed he's forehead, "Its fine. It wasn't you're fault... Mepphy-chan..." I knew I was going to regret this but...

"What are you talking about!? It was my fau-" he stopped and blinked at me stupidly, which I just started blushing a bit and turned my head away, "what did you just say..?" He asked.

"I won't say it again..." I might be sick, and I'm saying stuff I shouldn't cause of the fever. But I'm not that fudgen stupid or sick enough to say it again...

"Asami you really do care~!" That is when he glomped me and he's whole weight was over me! "H-hey you're h-heavy!"

I gasped at him. He removed himself having with a stupid grin on he's face, "I only did this cause you put up an awesome game of chess and video game..." I smiled up at him as I slowly drifted off into a sleep. But before that, all I heard was from Mephisto was, "Same here, Asa-chan. Same here."
