KamenRiderZER0: Ah I love being home and being able to write once more. Provided my video game addiction doesn't keep me distracted.

GammaTron: I blame the new Spider-Man game that came out last Friday.

Z0: I plead the 5th! Anyway onward with the story.

GT: Okay! *flips a switch on the wall only for nothing to happen* ...Huh? *looks at the switch to see it was the Launcher Switch plugged into the wall...which deployed several Launcher Modules* ...Oops.

Launcher Modules: *fire off, destroying the screen*

"The sounds of exercising echoing across the field on a sunny afternoon: how peaceful!" Korosensei commented, his normal attire replaced with a white shirt with his name on it, a red baseball hat, and red shorts, while he stood nearby as the students of the E Class building were going through knife swinging drills while looking at him, "If the students didn't have their prey in sights, that is."

"Wield your knives properly from all eight directions, now," Karasuma ordered.

"They have picked up the pace well." Korosensei noted, "I suppose the Zodiarts threat has made learning self defense more appealing."

"Oi. I'm in charge of physical education," Karasuma reminded.

"I know, I know, but still it makes me feel a bit lonely," Korosensei noted.

"Didn't I tell you to make yourself scarce during this period?" Karasuma questioned before thumbing behind his back, not once looking away from the students, "Go play in the sandbox."

"Nuhuhuhu…" Korosensei sniffled as he started piling up sand in the sandbox, "You're so mean, Karasuma-sensei. Why, my students happen to like my gym classes!"

"How were the tako's gym classes anyway?" Miu asked.

"Korosensei's physical abilities are just too different," Sugaya explained with a sigh.

"I remember the first lesson he tried," Sugino recalled, "He wanted us to do side hops."

"That doesn't seem so…" Miu began.

"At Mach 2 while incorporating Cat's Cradle once we got the hang of it," Kaede deadpanned.

"He's not good at this yet, is he?" Miu bluntly asked.

"I can hear you!" Korosensei snapped.

"Sensei...I think that was the point…" Gentaro muttered.

"Ah! Boo hoo hoo hoo…" Korosensei comically sobbed as he started stacking stones in the sandbox while a blue aura came over him.

"Okay, enough talk. It's time to get back to work," Karasuma ordered.

"Hai…" many of them groaned.

"This is impossible…" Kengo gasped for air, "This man's expectations are inhuman."

"But Gentaro seems fine…"

"Exactly!" Kengo snapped.

"Ah, you're doing fine, buddy!" Gentaro encouraged as he smiled, smacking Kengo's back and knocking him over, "Uh-oh…" he panicked.

"I'll put him to the side," Sugino sighed as he helped Kengo up.

"Honestly...In the time you've taken for that, look over at the target," Karasuma ordered.

Everyone looked over and several gawked in complete and utter shock. Korosensei gave a laugh as he sat seiza-style beside a perfect recreation of Osaka Castle. The oversized gym shirt and red hat were gone, replaced with a formal green set of robes and rounded box-shaped hat. He was even performing a tea ceremony for goodness sakes!

"In those few moments, he built Osaka Castle out of sand, changed his clothes, and is now on his way in performing a tea ceremony," Karasuma continued.

"Sensei...I don't think we can outspeed him unless we can, I dunno, Clock up or something…" Gentaro muttered.

"Ah, but only two students has outsped me," Korosensei noted.

"Eh, really? Who?" Maehara asked.

"Why Kisaragi-kun and Terasaka-kun of course," Korosensei replied.

"Ore?" Gentaro blinked, pointing at himself with a confused face, "EH!?" he panicked, "When...where...how?!"

"It's when ya rammed me into space," Terasaka realized.

"Correct!" Korosensei beamed, his head blue with a purple circle in the center, "I can only go Mach 20. But going from here all the way up to the outer limits of the atmosphere in the several seconds you two took required far more speed. But of course..." his green stripes appeared, "I know to avoid your motorcycle and the PowerDizer in Tower Mode now, so good luck getting me between them and the sky, nurufufufufu."

"But I have Rocket Module…" Gentaro added.

"Ah true...but by my best estimate the Rocket Module only has half the power of the Machine. You'd need...two at once to be able to match the speed to catch me," Korosensei explained, "And even then, you'd lose the use of both hands and have to rely on two rockets for weapons. Such a formation would not be viable for combat."

"Didn't you all say the same thing about Hopping?" Yuki asked.

"No, I clearly saw the worth of such a device unlike the others…" Korosensei replied, turning away and whistling off-key.

'What a terrible liar…' many of them thought.

"So, Karasuma-sensei, what is your end goal for this?" Miu asked, "Training in front of our 'target' just gives him a bit more opportunity to learn what we can do, right?"

"It's the same in assassination as in studying: drill the basics and they'll serve you well," Karasuma informed.

"Hmm…" Miu nodded, "While I can understand the logic, I believe you should consider some out of the box options as well." she spoke, earning his attention, "From my perspective, everyone here has a special skill from their specialized interests before being sent here. It's true with time any one can shine. But if you choose to polish the prominent features, you get some astounding results. For example, Gentaro-kun has the power of Fourze and with Kengo-kun they make a deadly team to Zodiarts. Polish Gentaro's combat skills and Kengo's strategic ability and they could potential corner Korosensei." she explained, "At least...that's how I see things."

'An excellent deduction,' Karasuma thought.

"However there is the notable hurdle of Gentaro-kun doesn't wish to harm Korosensei…" Miu sighed, "He's kind...but probably too kind."

'Once again...excellent deduction...This girl has the makings of an exceptional leader. These skills in determining the worth of others can serve her well.' Karasuma muttered, 'But she makes good points...even if these kids can't bridge the gap...Kisaragi could.'

"Oh…" Gentaro swung around his special knife as he was able to parry the strikes from several of his classmates, "Like that!" he realized.

"Don't just suddenly be good at this!" several of them shouted, making him fumble with his weapon before dropping it.

"While your unique skills will be polished, I will also be focusing on teaching you stabbing, shooting, all the basics to assassination," Karasuma informed, "That is the end for gym today."

"Thank you!" the students thanked with bows.

"Ah, such a nice day," Korosensei chuckled as he now sat beside a perfectly recreated setting of Osaka Castle and now its surrounding area included.

"How can he be so good at that but be horrible at drawing?" Sugaya pondered.

"You managed to last a few minutes longer than last time, Utahoshi-san," Sugino noted as he offered Kengo a bottle of water.

"I...I've made peace that I am the one who sits behind the computer…" Kengo explained, "But...I suppose Karasuma's insanity has...benefits."

"I haven't even gotten to the hard stuff yet…" Karasuma muttered.

"...Can we kill this teacher too?" Kengo asked.

"Karasuma-sensei is kinda scary...but he's kinda cool, too," Toka noted, earning Korosensei's attention to her, Miu, and Kurahashi.

"He's got a nice figure, too," Miu noted with a small nod, "I'm almost afraid of fainting if we ever see him without a shirt."

"Do you think if we manage to get a hit on him with our knives, we'll get a pat on the head?" Kurahashi asked.

"Karasuma-sensei...you're trying to steal my popularity with the students, aren't you?!" Korosensei accused, biting a handkerchief and tugging on it while looking at the government man as he put his black jacket back on.

"Don't be ridiculous," Karasuma replied, "'If the school so desires, it may assign an additional teacher to the E Classes.' It says so right in your employment contract." he quoted while flicking an Anti-Korosensei knife at the unkillable teacher who caught it in a tentacle covered in the handkerchief he was just biting on just an instant before it could touch his forehead, "My duty is to provide onsite assassin monitoring - all in the name of killing you."

"Please use the name the students gave me," Korosensei noted as he switched his rounded hat with his normal academic one, "Korosensei."

"Ah mou...a quiz in sixth period," Gentaro groaned, "Why can't all classes be gym?"

"We'd be dead if that were the reality," Yoshida paled.

"At least that will be done quick enough," Kengo muttered before a shadow came over him, "Hm?"

"Yo, Kengo-kun," the red-haired youth greeted, a juice box in hand, "It's been a while."

"Karma…?" Kengo blinked before rolling around to his feet, "Karma?!"

"Karma-san?!" Yuki yelped.

"Yo, Yuki-chan," Karma mock-saluted before spotting Korosensei, "Ah, so that's the infamous Korosensei?" he approached the octopus as the other students looked at him in surprise, "Whoa, he really does look like an octopus."

"Akabane Karma-kun is it? I heard that your suspension was up today," Korosensei noted before his face turned purple with a blue X, "But you shouldn't be tardy on your first day back."

"Ah, gomen, gomen. It's a bit hard to get back into the swing of things," Karma explained as he offered a hand, "Feel free to call me by my first name. Nice to meet ya, Teach!"

"Likewise. Let's make this a fun year," Korosensei beamed.

He reached his hand out and took Karma's hand in his tentacle...before it exploded in Karma's grip. Korosensei flinched in surprise as Karma tossed his juice to the side, exposing a hidden knife in his sleeve. He swung the blade and Korosensei barely avoided the strike and moved back several meters.

"Wow. You really are fast…" Karma noted as he looked at the hand he shook Korosensei's tentacle with...exposing several sliced up bits of one of the Anti-Sensei knives glued to the underside, "And those knives really do work. I sliced one up really fine and stuck the pieces on. But to be caught by such a simple move..." he gave a look of disappointment as he showed his hand to Korosensei, "And to jump back all that way...What are you, a scaredy cat?"

Korosensei groaned under his breath as his head began turning red with multiple X veins popping up along his head.

"This is the first time Sensei's ever been hurt...not even Zodiarts have been able to knick him…" Gentaro muttered while Korosensei's tentacle regenerated.

"What kind of person is Karma?" Kaede asked as everyone just watched.

"Before Kisaragi...before the Zodiarts and even before Tako...I can claim Karma was the strongest person here," Kengo explained, "Though...maybe a little intense…" he shrugged

"Intense?!" Yuki complained, "He ended up in E Class due to his violent personality! He's super scary that not even the jocks messed with him!"

"Hm...yes…" Kengo muttered, "Thanks to his violent tendencies, he got expulsion...and those students end up here as well in E Class. But that, ironically, is why he's perfect for this class."

"What's that mean?" Gentaro blinked.

"When it comes to foul play, deadly weapons, and getting in close for maximum damage...no one is better than Karma." Kengo explained as Karma flipped around his hidden knife, "Speed, precision, focus, and most of all killer intent. He's almost like Karasuma. Only he seems to know how to show emotion..."

"Violence and glee of said violence doesn't count!" Yuki shouted, crossing her arms above her head as everyone swore they heard a buzzer sound.

'Don't run away, Korosensei…' Karma thought as he walked away from the annoyed octopus, 'I'll show you what it means to be killed.'

*Plop...plop...plop…*

The test for sixth period was annoying for various reasons. Yet the primary one to nearly every single student…

*plop...plop...plop*

...was Korosensei standing with his back to the students while punching weakly at a wall. It wasn't even damaging it at all. It just kept making a funny noise each time the wall met Korosensei's tentacle. It'd be rather funny really if not for the fact this was happening while everyone was trying hard to focus on a test and every couple of seconds…

*plop...plop…*

That...that would go off. Painfully at the point when many of them needed to focus the most. It was getting to the point most of the students closest to the front were really getting annoyed.

"What's he supposed to be doing?"

"A wall...punch?"

"Gh...I can't take it anymore!" Gentaro called out, "This is a wall punch!"

"Gentaro no!" several of them shouted as Gentaro punched a big hole next to the chalkboard.

"If you're gonna punch something, put your shoulder into it!" Gentaro exclaimed.

"CAN WE STOP PUNCHING WALLS PERIOD?!"

"His punches are really weak," Yuki noted, "His tentacles must be really soft if that's all he can do when he's standing."

"It's obvious Korosensei must be really mad at Karma's smack-talk," Sugino noted.

"I'm not sure which is more annoying: the Tako or Kisaragi…" Kengo muttered.

"Can we just get back to this stupid test?" Hinata Okano shouted, scaring Gentaro back to his seat and Korosensei back to his senses.

"P-pardon me!" Korosensei panicked.

"Oi, Karma," Terasaka spoke up, earning the red head's attention, "You sure about this man? The monster's pissed now."

"You'd be pissed, too, Terasaka, if someone'd started to kill you," Karma replied, "Not like when a certain someone screwed up as a human and Zodiarts while wetting themselves the first time."

"Gh?! I did not wet myself! You're cruisin' for a bruisin', pal?!" Terasaka demanded, banging a fist on his desk in anger.

"You there! No loud noises during tests!" Korosensei hypocritically snapped, pointing a tentacle at the two with a tick mark on his head.

"Tell that to your tentacles…"

"That could be considered cheating!" Korosensei went on, ignoring some counterarguments students muttered under their breath.

"Gomen gomen, Korosensei. I've already finished my test," Karma replied before pulling out a pink gelato on a cone, "So I'll just sit here quietly and eat my gelato."

"Not during class, you won't!" Korosensei snapped before noticing said gelato, "Hm?! Th-That's the Gelato I brought back from Italy yesterday!"

'It's yours?' many of the students thought in annoyance.

"Oh, gomen! I just found it chilling in the staff room," Karma explained.

"'Gomen' won't cut it!" Korosensei snapped, "I took pains to fly through the coldest stratosphere just so that it wouldn't melt, too!"

"Eh...So what are you gonna do about it?" Karma asked before taking a lick, "Hit me?"

"I will not!" Korosensei replied as he put his tentacles on his hip area while his head was red with anger marks littering it, "I'll just have what's left!" he proceeded to march towards Karma in the back, "Come now, hand it o…" a pop made him freeze and look down to see the floor covered in Anti-Sensei BB pellets, "Gah! Anti-Me BBs!"

Korosensei quickly began stepping side to side avoiding several shots from Karma's pistol. Karma laughed upon seeing Korosensei's reaction. Korosensei looked down at his damaged 'legs' as they were still falling apart some.

"Gotcha again!" Karma laughed, getting out of his seat, "I'll just keep using the same tricks. Even if it interferes with class. If you don't like it, kill me or anyone else here…" Karma went on as he closed the distance, "But the second you do…" he went on as he moved to stab Korosensei...only to reveal he smeared the rest of the gelato onto his clothing, "No one will see you as a teacher anymore. You'll just be a murderous Monster." with that, he let the rest of the cone fall to the ground on Korosensei's tentacles, "You, the teacher, will be killed by me." Karma grinned up at Korosensei who was still silent, "Hai. Here's my test!" he spoke, tossing the paper as Korosensei caught it midair, "Probably got 'em all right anyway!" he walked towards the door and slid it open, "Ja ne, Sensei. Let's play some more tomorrow."

"Kengo...your friend is kinda…" Gentaro began.

"Say what you will. He did what not even the world governments have been able to...harm the Tako," Kengo countered simply, "Karma is smart. He has already read the situation and knows Korosensei has lines he will not cross." he spoke out loud, "He's making Korosensei toe those lines. He's easily one of the smartest people in this school but he'd rather use that intelligence to clash with others. That's the kind of person he is. I'm not saying I agree or condone, but I don't dislike his views."

"Hm…" Gentaro muttered.

The Scorpio Zodiart walked out onto the roof of the main campus and began scanning the oblivious students. It began scanning for anyone who could be a potential zodiarts for the switch it had just procured. As it searched around, it paused at sensing a different presence.

"Using the same old tired tactics?" a voice growled, making Scorpio turn to face three more cloaked Zodiarts, the beastly one being the one who spoke, "Your last pick didn't even evolve upon reaching Last One. Your eye for potential is...weak."

"Come now. One failure doesn't mean we need to pick on Scorpio," the pink female one spoke up.

"However, it is true that the last pick was rather lackluster," the one with a wide brimmed hat added on, "Master wants us to find Switchers with the potential to evolve beyond limits."

"..." Scorpio said nothing as the three spoke.

"Tsk...Always watching out for your underling…" the beastly of the three complained, "The Master said I have seniority...if Scorpio's next pick doesn't at least show potential for evolution, all choices from here on must be approved by one of us."

"Such a brash fellow, aren't you…"

"I shall not fail." Scorpio spoke, earning their attention, "I shall find a Switcher with strong potential."

"See that you do...or the Master will not be pleased." the Beastly Zodiarts spoke, "And when Master is not pleased...I get angry…"

"Understood…" Scorpio bowed. As the four Zodiart masterminds conversed, none of them noticed an object breaking the sound barrier several kilometers above their heads.

"Honestly…" Korosensei complained, flying through the expansive sky at top speed, "Forcing me to go and buy more Gelato." he complained, clutching the papers he graded during the flight. Karma, true to his statement got all the questions correct, "He's smart and tough, but as he says, if I am going to stay a teacher, I'm not allowed to kill or hurt him. So...how to deal with him, then?"

Most of Class E arrived at Amanogawa Station...yes. Apparently the school's main campus also had a train station close enough to be considered a part of its collective property. It was used by Students to commute to and from school. It served as a sort of meeting spot for students who planned to spend the rest of the day together.

"Yes! The day is over!" Gentaro cheered as the members of the Kamen Rider Club walked ahead, "Who's up for some after school fun!? Karaoke? Sports Center? Oh, who wants to go out to eat?"

"Gomen, Gen-san. I'm heading back to the shop to grab my tool kit and work on PowerDizer. Its right arm's squeaking a bit and I'm worried that the joint is too tight," Yoshida replied.

"Eh…" Gentaro complained at that.

"Hey, if someone doesn't take care of the big guy, how's he gonna be a help to ya when ya need him?" Yoshida questioned.

"Well that's fair…" Gentaro nodded.

"You don't have a problem with that. Right, Utahoshi?" Yoshida asked Kengo who was a few steps behind them.

"At this point, you seem to have developed a knack for the mechanics of both PowerDizer and Machine," Kengo replied, "It's two less things to concern myself over."

"The only issue I still see it having is that strain it puts on the boys," Miu observed, "Any chance you can figure out why it's doing that, Yoshida?"

"I can try," Yoshida replied, "I'll check the blueprints when I'm with PowerDizer and my toolkit."

"Good luck, Yoshida!" Gentaro cheered, "Kengo, you coming?"

"No. I'm heading home to get Yoshida the blueprints and notes for the next Astro Switch I'm making." Kengo explained, "This one will be a special case, Kisaragi...be ready for another tricky one."

"Ossu!" Gentaro cheered, "Well then minna, Kamen Rider Club after school activities start!"

"Yeah!" they cheered, following him.

Kengo shook his head as walked off towards his train. As he did, he walked past several students from the main campus who looked at him. They chuckled to themselves while watching him walk about, messing with one of the Astro Switches in hand.

"Look at Utahoshi…" one boy smirked, "He looks right at home with those E class idiots."

"Barf. He'll never make it back to class acting like that," a second sneered.

"Plus, Akabane's back in E Class now that his suspension's over," the first noted.

"Oh, that's the pits! I would seriously rather die than wind up there!" the second noted.

The two stopped as they heard the sound of breaking glass. The two turned to see Karma standing there holding a broken bottle in his hand. Having broke it against a pillar just behind them.

"Eh...you'd rather die?" Karma asked pointing the broken bottle at them "So...like right now?"

"Akabane!" they cried running as fast as possible away from him.

"Like I would!" Karma laughed as Kengo walked over to him, "With such fun toys around, why would I risk it with another suspension?"

"So you enjoy this chaos. Sounds like you indeed."

"So, listen, Kengo-kun," Karma spoke, "There's something I wanted to ask you. I understand that you know a thing or two about Korosensei."

"I've been studying him should I need to force Fourze to destroy him. So far, he's more useful than harmful." he explained, "But knowing you…" he sighed, "You plan to make a move to kill him sometime this week."

"Guilty as charged," Karma smiled, "But back to topic... How does he feel about being called Tako or anything octopus related in general."

"He's turned it into his gimmick," Kengo complained, "He uses octopus drawings as his moniker, picks them in games...and...several other...instances…" his eye twitched, "But he's accepted it."

"Hmm...That gives me an idea then," Karma chuckled.

"Something symbolic, I suppose."

"Yep. Ah...I feel so happy right now, Kengo-kun," Karma noted as he turned back to Kengo, "I was wondering what I'd do if he were just some sorta monster, but it turns out he's an actual teacher capable of teaching two different years at once." a train sped by behind Karma, reflecting the setting sun's light behind him and causing his eyes to appear to be glowing malevolently, "And I get to kill an actual teacher...I mean, since the last one up and died on me."

'Died?' Kengo pondered, 'The previous E-Class Teacher, I suppo…'

His thoughts froze as his eyes widened the moment the train had gone by. On the other side of the rails was a raven/crow-like creature, holding a bow seemingly made of two metallic wings. The creature pulled back on the string as black feathers formed into an arrow. The moment its fingers opened, Kengo jumped forward with all he could and knocked Karma and himself down onto the tracks.

The arrow hit the floor with a loud 'thunk' as the other students all turned to see the monster before screaming. The monster complained with a 'tsk' as it formed another arrow and jumped over towards the edge of the platform over the tracks. It blinked, not seeing either of the two down bellow. The truth, however, was that Karma and Kengo were hiding under a holographic image of the bottom of the tracks projected by Burgermeal.

"A Zodiarts...the Corvus constellation…" Kengo grunted, having exerted himself too much as Karma took over holding Burgermeal up.

"Ah...So that's a Zodiarts," Karma noted, "Kinda surprised they're not based off the Zodiac. Then again, there'd probably be only twelve of them."

"We've already met Scorpio," Kengo explained, "The Horoscopes as we've dubbed them seem to be elite Zodiarts who look after the lesser ones based off any of the major constellations. Also this one seems to be out to kill you...so...this is kinda your mess..."

"Oh, blunt as ever Kengo-kun...so what? Am I supposed to beat it myself?" Karma smirked sarcastically, "You know Fourze never worked for me…" he shrugged.

"No...but I quickly realized we'd need something for self defense…" Kengo grunted, reaching into his backpack and pulling out a knife like those made of Anti-Korosensei material, only it was black with white specs all over it, "Here…" he tossed it to Karma, "You liked the Anti-sensei weapons...this is an Anti-Zodiarts knife."

"Oho...when did you make this?" he smiled while trying to flick it, but noticed it was much more sturdy and solid.

"Just before coming here. You gave me an idea with how creative you were with that stuff...I took the material and vulcanized it using Cosmic Energy…" Kengo explained, "It's not Fourze...but it'll keep us from being impaled by arrows…"

"Nice," Karma noted as he smirked.

"Get in close and that thing will let you harm him. For you...this should be simple," Kengo spoke, "I'll draw its attention…"

"How will…" Karma begran as Kengo ran out from under their cover.

"Oi Zodiarts!" he called out, making the Corvus Zodiarts turn to him, "Looking for Karma? ...Good luck!" he taunted before running off down the tracks, "Please be late like usual…" he muttered, referring to the train.

The Zodiarts looked at him in interest for a few before blinking as a sudden pain coursed through its leg, making it trip down to the tracks as well; Its weapon falling away from it. It looked up at Karma as he twirled his new knife around, a smile on his face. The Zodiarts looked at its leg, seeing a wound seeping dark cosmic energy.

"Ara...someone looks surprised…" Karma smiled, "Poor little birdy thought it had the advantage, but looky...I have a nice new toy." The Zodiarts hobled back to its feet before moving to punch Karma, only for him to duck around the swung and slash its arm making the Zodiarts, cry and back into the wall of the tracks. Karma paused for a moment before he kicked his leg and hit the Zodiarts' chest; he then used this leverage to help him jump up and land on the edge of the platform, "Bye-bye~" he laughed, rolling back.

The Zodiarts blinked before turning to the side and seeing a train coming its way. It squawked in surprise and stumbled for its bow before running and struggling to jump back onto the platform. It nearly made it when the train slammed into it, sending it into the air with a pained and startled squawk.

"It squawks like a real crow…" Karma noted as Kengo jogged up while gasping for air, "What odd beings…"

"You know...that thing wants...to kill you, right?" Kengo spoke between pants for air.

"So...you said that Zodiarts are typically students. This means this is just some idiot who thinks they got a shot at me now," Karma smirked.

"Well...you'll make excellent bait then..." Kengo replied.

"Oh you are cold, you know that?" Karma replied.

"I don't want to hear that from you…"

"Come on... You know you want to admit we're alike."

"I'm not listening…"

"I didn't see this coming…" Korosensei spoke, walking down the hall, "My Gelato money, gone!" he sobbed looking into his little coin purse, filled with nothing but 100, 10, and 1 yen pieces, "And no hope of getting more before payday. I'll just have to make my own to tide me over till then…"

"Korosensei, help! Karasuma is trying to make me practice insane military stuff again!" Fourze shouted, running around outside.

"Hai, hai, hai...That's nice…" Korosensei sighed, still looking at his nearly empty coin purse.

"Kisaragi!" Karasuma shouted.

"AH!" Fourze screamed as he used Rocket to fly away, "I don't wanna run across minefields!"

"Good to know Kisaragi-kun will be a little tardy…" Korosensei muttered while making it to the classroom; he opened it while putting on his best normal face to greet his students, "Ohayo gozaimasu!" he cheered before seeing everyone had tense, nervous and some even disturbed faces, odd...he just entered the room; this doesn't happen till mid-afternoon, what could this be about, oh look a octopus has been stabbed through the brains to his desk with an ice pick...wait a minute, "Ah…"

"Whoops! My bad!" Karma called out, making Korosensei turn to him, "I mistook it for you, Korosensei, so I killed it by mistake. Bring it here," he went on while holding a hand out for emphasis, his other arm behind his back, "I'll dispose of it."

"Hm...All right then," Korosensei replied as he picked up the octopus and began to approach Karma. As he did, he noted it was still rather fresh, 'Seems like an awful waste to just toss it away. Oh idea~!'

'Bring it on, Korosensei,' Karma thought as he lightly played with the knife behind his back, 'I don't have to kill your body right now. I'll start by killing your soul.'

Korosensei took several steps further before pausing. Everyone looked before their eyes widened as several of his tentacles' ends turned into high-spinning drills. Nearly everyone yelped as Korosensei vanished with a burst of air and dust before appearing in the same spot a moment later, holding Fourze by the Rocket Module.

"Allow me to show you, Karma-kun: the might of these drill Tentacles and the firepower of this Rocket Module that I filched from Karasuma-sensei's morning training!" Korosensei declared as several more tentacles held up tempura bits, flour, sauce, and bonito flakes, "Kisaragi-kun, please ignite!"

"Eh? Ah...I don't know what's going on, but yosha!" Fourze replied as he ignited the Rocket Module while managing to hold himself in place with the flames going upwards before Korosensei, the lighting making his face actually look intimidating.

"I'm not about to allow my assassin get away scott-free," Korosensei informed as he proceeded to perform a high-speed cooking utilizing the Rocket Module's flames before, seconds later, a piece of takoyaki was in Karma's mouth and Kengo's mouth as well on the other side of the room, "I could tell by your pallors that both of you either forgot or willingly neglected to eat breakfast." he noted cheerfully as he held up a platter of takoyaki, "So I thought I'd be a good sensei and make sure you both have something to eat in the form of yummy takoyaki, whipped up at Mach speed of course. They'll put you on the path to be well and healthy."

"Oh…" Fourze spoke, his eye piece sparkling as he stared at the Takoyaki before his hand was slapped away several times by Korosensei.

"Karma-kun...What I do is tend things, take care of them. Things like assassins' rusty blades," Korosensei continued as he opened his mouth to reveal it was filled with more steaming hot takoyaki, "So keep killing me in earnest all day today. Every time you do, I'll take care of you." Karma grit his teeth as Korosensei went on, "By the end of today, your body and mind will be polished to sparkling."

"You gonna eat that?" Fourze asked, peeking over the side of Karma's desk and earning a slap to his helmet from Korosensei, "Sorry, sensei! I'll go to my seat!" he saluted before running to his desk still fully armored as Fourze.

-First Period: Math-

"As you see, this number is left over no matter what you do," Korosensei spoke as he wrote down equations on the board, "If this indivisibility is getting you down, then have I got the method for you!"

"Hmm…" Gentaro hummed through his helmet...still forgetting to shut down the Fourze armor as he struggled with his notes.

"And a secondary method for those like Kisaragi-kun and Terasaka-kun," Korosensei added.

"Phew…" Fourze sighed, leaning back on his seat.

"I never asked for help!"

"Hai hai!" Korosensei went on, "I'll write these notes down and let you all solve the next questions on your own!" he smiled while turning his back to intently write things down.

Karma smiled taking this chance as he reached for his gun and aimed at Korosensei's head. His finger curved towards the trigger. But in the instant it took his hand to remember the position of the trigger and its guard, Korosensei blurred for a moment. Most who were watching him blinked as he turned around, holding Karma's gun in one of his extra arm tentacles.

"Oh Karma-kun? You're too slow between drawing and firing, I'm afraid," he explained, dangling the weapon by the handle, Karma blinked seeing his weapon all the way at the front of the class, but more so he felt something off about his nails, there were all painted black and yellow with takoyaki and one octopus themed decorations, "And since I had so much extra time, I trimmed and gave your nails some nail art. What do you think?"

Karma held up his hand, showing off the extent of work done to his nails. Most of the boys had to stifle some kind of laugh while the girls just blinked...most of them also trying to hold back a laugh. But Karma's look of frustration was what mostly kept anyone from busting a gut. It was made worse when Korosensei pulled out Burgermeal and took pictures.

-Fourth period: Home Ec-

Korosensei walked around the Home Economics room, wearing a full body white apron over his clothing and a hair net for some reason. The other students all also wore aprons and bandanas over their hair as well.

"Okay, Gen-chan, use your muscles to whip this for me," Yuki ordered.

"Yosha!" Gentaro, wearing an orange apron and bandana, cheered before taking a whisk and whipping the contents of a bowl with great speed, "Haha!" he cheered, keeping up an impressive and...rather unneeded speed.

"Well, Fuwa-chan, Kazashiro-chan, how is your task doing?" Korosensei asked.

"We're hitting a small snag," Miu explained as Fuwa offered the pot to show Korosensei its contents, "We're trying to go for a softer taste, but we keep getting a sharp tang that we can't figure out how to get rid of."

"Ah, senpai, why not simply start over?" Karma suggested, "Simply toss out this batch and…"

He smacked the underside, sending the mixture at Korosensei's face. He swung his knife and blinked at the ladle he now held.

"You forgot your apron, Karma-kun," Korosensei noted as Miu snickered at Karma's frilly pink heart-themed apron, "Don't worry about the soup, girls. I sucked it all up in midair with a dropper so that I wouldn't miss a single drop." he offered the pot to the two, "Oh, and I added a bit of sugar to it. It should counteract the sharp tang."

"It's much milder!" Fuwa gasped.

"Oh perfect. Also you rock pink, Karma-kun," Miu smiled, taking another taste, "Hmm, say what you will, but Korosensei can cook."

"Ha…" Kengo shook his head, watching all this, 'I tried to warn him. He's long lost his element of surprise. When prepared, the Tako is untouchable… If he feels endangered, he's always on alert and in top condition, but if he's relaxed then his reaction speed drops to human levels and worse so if flustered. Kisaragi has proven that point...several times.'

"Ah! Kisaragi-kun, that's too fast!" Korosensei exclaimed before screaming, "Ah! He's pulled me in! He's pulled me in! Tatsukete~!"

"Gen-chan, the soup doesn't call for octopus!" Yuki exclaimed.

"Too late! Going too fast to stop now!" Gentaro spoke up, too sucked up into his task.

"Gonna need to amputate Sensei…" Yuki sighed, pulling out an Anti-Korosensei knife, "I'll try to be fast…"

"No wait my heart is not...rea-DY!" he cried out as his tentacles which were sucked into the vortex flailed around once severed, "Lefty~!"

'Case in point…' Kengo thought with a sweatdrop.

-Fifth Period: Japanese-

"'It was an ideal spot for the red frog. Why didn't it try to cross from there?'" Korosensei read as he paced down the aisles of the classroom.

"Red….Frog…" Gentaro muttered, writing down his notes.

"'Even as I was thinking of this,'" Korosensei continued to read as Karma simply sat at his desk, looking vacant until Korosensei had his back to him; Karma suddenly snapped into a stabbing position when he was frozen when a tentacle was poking his forehead and Korosensei was directly looking at him...his face covered in green stripes, "'the red frog, having failed again, was making its way back.'" as Karma stared at him in shock, Korosensei took the time to groom Karma's hair with hairspray and a brush, "'I was starting to get bored with it. Picking up stones from the road, I began throwing them at the sandbar. I was trying not to hit the red frog…'"

'I'm getting the feeling that the 'red frog' Korosensei is talking about isn't the one in the book,' some of the students near Karma thought.

"Hit...the….red….frog," Gentaro muttered, writing that down with a bit of a lag.

Kengo leaned against the wall, waiting for Karma to walk out. He sighed as he had been waiting a few minutes already. He knew he must either be lost in thought of his next plan, or he's doing what paramonts to moping around for him. Which in hindsight is still kinda scary to most given the intense aura of intimidation emanating from his person; but it didn't change the fact he was moping.

"Karma...still in there?" Kengo spoke out loud to whoever was on clean up duty in the class at the moment.

The door slid open as Karma stepped out, biting his pointer finger's nail in frustration with a look of mad thought in his eyes.

"Oh joy. You're in a mood," Kengo sighed, slapping his hand away from his mouth.

"?!" Karma snapped out of his thoughts at his eyes settled on Kengo.

"Good. I have your attention. I need you to bait out a Zodiarts, and I can't in full conscience do that if you are distracted," Kengo began, "So wake up and get ready to be shot at."

"Who's getting shot at?" Karasuma asked, overhearing that.

"...Kisaragi…" Kengo spoke after a long pause.

"Hmm...He does need to improve his reaction speed," Karasuma noted.

"Agreed," Kengo nodded, "Karma and I are going to get the training equipment."

"Carry on, then," Karasuma replied as he walked off towards the path down the mountain.

"You're gonna get me shot at, aren't you?" Karma asked once he left.

"If it'll get you out of this emo phase...yes." Kengo replied while dragging him off, "I'll need to call Kisaragi so he can become Fourze."

"So why didn't we tell the teacher?"

"He'd lock you in a panic room. On the moon..." Kengo explained, "After last time, he's very strict on protecting students from harm. And frankly if this person is so adamant about going after you, then I have no choice. I'd lose his scent too easily given how vast that ocean is."

"Hoh? The moon, eh?" Karma pondered, "Heh. I wonder if that American's footprints and his country's flag are still there."

"I'm pretty sure that was part of the chunk the Tako blew up," Kengo muttered, "But you're welcome to check. It's just a several mile hike with only a few hours worth of air."

Karma chuckled as they walked by a window. On the other side of said window was the Zodiarts, bowstring pulled back. The two kept their expressions for a few moments before they ducked as the window shattered from the arrow that went through it and the wall behind it.

"So what now?" Karma asked as the two ran off as the Corvus Zodiarts jumped through the broken window and loaded another arrow in its bow.

"Find Kisaragi!" Kengo replied.

"Well that shouldn't be too hard...where could he go?" Karma asked.

"AH!" Fourze cried, crashing into a river, "Yes! I fell from the moon!" he rubbed his head while looking around, "...Now where am I?"

"I've learned not to underestimate how stupid he can get," Kengo replied as they backed away from the Zodiarts, "Bow and arrow, decent shot, reliance on range."

"Possibly part of the archery club?" Karma asked.

"No. If it were...then it would have hit us already," Kengo argued.

"Ah. Good point, good point," Karma agreed.

"It must be a novice...or just the worst member of the club," Kengo spoke as a tick mark formed on the monster's head, "They also lack any hand to hand skill so...that must mean they aren't athletic. Not that I'm one to talk, but still." he went on as he slotted a Switch into Burgermeal behind his back.

"Akabane…" the Zodiarts growled, "You are the cause…"

"Do all of these guys sound like they have voice synthesizers or some way of making them sound menacing and failing it?" Karma asked.

"Terasaka sounded like he was gargling pebbles," Kengo replied.

"Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before," the Zodiarts continued before splitting his bow in two, revealing it to be two blades connected together, this caused the two to blink and look back and forth between the two weapons.

"Oh goodie...it does poetry. Let me guess...Drama geek?" Karma asked before moving back at the end of his tie was sliced off, having been moved up by his sudden backwards movement...at exactly where her neck had been.

"There are some secrets which do not permit themselves to be told," Corvus Zodiarts replied before swinging his blades once more, making the two scramble out of the way as the blades easily tore into the wood of the building where they had been.

"You had to piss it off..." Kengo sighed as he tossed Burgermeal with all he could.

The tiny robot crashed into the Corvus Zodiarts' face before scratching at it with its little arms. It began rolling around its body like a bug; making it skip around and try to catch it. Karma pulled out his Anti-Zodiarts knife as he swung once and struck the monster's chest, making it back away and through a wall via its strength.

"Heh. Not so tough, are ya?" Karma chuckled.

"It's just not able to control its body," Kengo spoke, grabbing his bag and opening it. He quickly hit a red button, sending an emergency message to the Radar Switch.

"Panic button...not bad," Karma spoke as the Zodiarts got up and jumped at them.

It swung one of its blades down at Karma. It was so focused it didn't hear the sound of a rocket. It slowly looked to the window as it saw an orange and white blur coming at them. The Corvus Zodiarts' eyes bugged out of his head in realization.

"UCHU KITA!-!-!-!" Fourze shouted, tackling the Zodiarts and crashing him through several walls and then outside.

"Not bad," Kengo looked at a stop watch on his computer/case.

"Huh...So that's Fourze, eh?" Karma noted, "Really does look like an astronaut who remade his helmet to look like a rocket ship."

"My father intended him to look friendly," Kengo revealed, "I still wonder why he omitted chest and torso armor…"

"I got him!" Fourze spoke as he body slammed the Corvus Zodiarts in the sports field due to his Rocket Module shutting down from overuse.

"Guh…"the Zodiarts grunted, "What is this? The stars blessed me, yet they have blessed you...Such complexity, the stars seem to be."

"I don't know what you mean...but I'm gonna bop you one," Fourze replied as he rolled off the Zodiarts and raised his arms up in a fighting stance.

"Every poem should remind the reader that they are going to die," the Zodiarts replied as he charged at Fourze and swung his blades.

"Hup!" Fourze jumped back before punching the Zodiarts in its face, knocking it away.

"Well he did say he was gonna bop him one," Karma chuckled, seeing the Zodiarts skid back from Fourze's punch.

Fourze rolled his fist around before charging and punching the Zodiarts several times before kicking him making him stumble back. The Corvus Zodiart swung its blade as Fourze blocked with his gauntlets. Fourze swung around the Zodiarts and smacked the back of his head, making him stumble and trip forward.

"Penalty! Rabbit punches are illegal!" Karma shouted.

"It wasn't a punch; it was a slap to the noggin!" Fourze argued, leaning and kicking the Zodiarts in the back and sending him stumbling back down.

"Rrr...I call to mind flatness and dampness; and then all is madness - the madness of a memory which busies itself among forbidden things," the Zodiarts cried out as its wings spread out and it took flight.

"Ah! I thought those things were props!" Fourze exclaimed before rolling out of the way of an arrow fired by the Zodiarts, "Teme...that's not fighting Man to man! Okay, my turn then!" he complained, flipping Radar and Launcher.

=RADAR - LAUNCHER ON!=

"Lock on!" Fourze exclaimed aiming his Radar at the Zodiarts before firing a barrage of missiles.

The Zodiarts squawked as it began to fly around as the missiles chased it. After several moments, the missiles hit and the trio heard a very loud squawk while seeing it fall in the distance. Fourze cheered as he dismissed the modules.

"Oh yeah!" Fourze flexed his arms, "Ah! Matte, Teme! Give me your switch!" he shouted bringing out his Rocket module and flying off after him.

"Quoth the Raven; Nevermore!" the Corvus Zodiarts replied before giving a strong flap that sent several feathers from its wings into Fourze's face, covering his 'bug eyes.'

"AH! My determination has blinded me!" Fourze cried, crashing through several trees...and back into the river, "...Phwah!" he gasped as he poked out of it and looked around, "...Ah mou...It got away!"

"So that was Fourze?" Karma spoke, watching from the window.

"I've heard it all already...Your words hold no power over me, spawn of the internet and trolls," Kengo quickly replied.

"Gah enough with the theater talk!" Fourze complained, having made it back, "It makes my head hurt...and feel sad because Romeo and Juliet is so sad…"

"He's rather simple, isn't he?" Karma smiled.

"I don't need him to think," Kengo shrugged.

"It's why we're friends!" Fourze declared, "He does the thinking...I do the punching." he then pointed at Karma, "Karma-san! Speaking of, I still have to make you my friend, too!"

"Eh?" Karma raised a brow.

"My name is Kisaragi Gentaro...and my dream is to make friends with Everyone in this school!" Fourze declared.

"Friends?" Karma asked with an incredulous chuckle, "Nani sorre...you talk like a new kid in elementary school."

"Thank you!" Fourze replied, slapping his shoulder, "Now...accept my friendship." he held his hand out.

"Oi, oi…" Karma complained, backing away as Fourze began chasing him around.

"Be my buddy!" Fourze shouted.

"Do you have any idea how weird that is when you ask that while dressed up like that?!"

"Be my buddy!"

"Kimochi warui!" Karma complained.

"Well...you seem to be able to handle him," Kengo noted.

"Make it stop!"

"Ah youth..." Korosensei sighed, watching from the roof, "I didn't even have to do anything this time, Kisaragi-kun was all the punishment he needed here. Nurufufufufufu~"

"Eh!? Karma-kun is being attacked?" Yuki asked once they gathered on Rabbit Hutch.

"Yes. It seems this one is one of many people Karma has pissed off and now want revenge...for whatever he did," Kengo explained once more.

"You believe I did something so bad so easily," Karma pointed out.

"..." Kengo just stared at him.

"Okay, yeah. I wasn't buying that line myself anyway," Karma chuckled.

"To be fair...didn't you beat a Jock up so bad he couldn't play for a full semester?" Yuki pointed out.

"...I plead the United State's fifth amendment," Karma put his hand up to her face.

"So what's the plan?" Kaede asked as she watched the recording of the Zodiarts with Gentaro and the others.

"I find him, beat the monster and evil out of him...and then I make him my friend!" Gentaro cheered happily.

"Hmm...Poe," Kirara noted, listening to the audio recordings Burgermeal got.

"Hm? What do you mean, Hazama-san?" Kanzaki asked.

"A panda?" Gentaro blinked, picturing a personal favorite movie.

"He's quoting Edgar Allen Poe," Kirara noted.

"You mean the one famous for rather dark gothic works of poetry?" Kengo realized.

"Who's that?" Gentaro tilted his head.

"Oh joy…" Karma shrugged, "De...what does that help us?"

"Maybe if we find students with a love of Poe's work...we can find possible Switchers?" Kaede asked.

"Well, not me then," Kirara noted, "Love his works, but I was up here giving Gen here his last rites."

"I jumped from the moon to Japan!" Gentaro cheered.

"We also know that your suit can handle atmospheric reentry from a moon-jump as well," Kanzaki noted.

"It got hot," Gentaro chuckled, "I think I sweated off like ten pounds…"

"How is he still alive?" Karma asked Kengo.

"I think he's too stupid to realize the stuff he does is fatal," Kengo sighed.

"Alright minna, let's find lovers of Pie!" Gentaro cheered, "Trip to the main campus ike!"

"Poe!" Kirara corrected.

"No thanks! I went before the last class!"

"Pfft…" most of the males laughed at that. The girls groaned and blushed from TMI.

"I'm dead, aren't I?" Karma chuckled.

"Only if we fail," Kengo replied.

"Oh, should we tell Karasuma?" Gentaro asked, "...Nah. I'm sure he'll be cool. It's to save Karma after all."

"He's dropped honorifics already?!" Karma grunted in surprise.

"We've gotten used to it," Isogai admitted.

Gentaro and company made their way out of the E Class building and then down to the main campus after Gentaro had to make a few stops to save Okajima from various accidents. But sure enough they made it, and with impressive time compared to how long it use to take them before, partly due to using PowerDizer to speed through a good portion of forest.

"Stil leaning to the left on straight paths while in Vehicle Mode..." Yoshida muttered to himself, writing in a small notebook with 'ADJUSTMENTS' written on the cover.

"At least we can use vehicle mode," Yuki smiled, "Makes the trip so much faster."

"Thanks to the Machine overriding the need for a pilot," Yoshida noted as Gentaro hopped off the bike placed atop, "Meaning Fourze could use this combination like some kinda chariot…"

"Don't let him get any ideas," Terasaka muttered.

"Gen would want to try jousting…" Yoshida realized.

"Shut it!" Terasaka barked, covering Yoshida's mouth.

"Oi, Taiga...you okay, buddy? Speak to me!" Gentaro shook Okajima, "Curses...that snake attack was too much for him."

"Girls in bikinis are mud wrestling beside us," Isogai deadpanned.

"WHERE?!" Okajima exclaimed, looking around frantically at the sides of PowerDizer.

"Oh!" Gentaro clapped at Isogai's cleverness.

"Can we please get to searching for clues and lower the chances of us pummeling Okajima ourselves?" Yada deadpanned.

"Osu!" Gentaro saluted, "Okay, where do we find Capone lovers?"

"Poe!" everyone corrected.

"Him too!"

"The school's library, book clubs, and any goth groups would be more than likely," Hazama noted.

"Yosh!" Gentaro nodded.

"Maybe Gen-san can handle the clubs and goth groups," Yuki quickly spoke up, "We can send another team to check the Library." she turned to the others, "Gen-san and Libraries...not a good mix." she shook her head.

"Got it," Hazama agreed, "Maybe have Terasaka go with him, too. Might result in the same as Gen."

"Oi!" Terasaka barked.

"Are they wrong?" Yoshida countered.

"Why you…"

"No worries, Terasaka...you and me will hit up more places with our group!" Gentaro cheered, putting his arm around his shoulder.

"I am not exactly happy about what our group will get into!" he countered as Gentaro grabbed several more of his fellow students and dragged them off.

"Ah, when he's aimed at someone else, it's quite hilarious," Karma chuckled.

"Indeed…" Kengo replied, "Still clues...I'm going to the library to steal their record of who checked out all Edgar Allen Poe books."

"Oh come on. I don't think he took all of them…" Yuki began.

"Nevermind…" she blinked, looking at the Poetry section which had a giant gap in one case from the books checked out.

"Aw that sucks. Was hoping to read The Raven once more," Kirara noted, "The guy's quoting it made me want to read it again."

"But useful...it means they might still have it," Kengo spoke as he was standing at the Librarian's desk and typing away, "In...let's see...recent check outs…recent check outs...It seems we have five people who checked them out."

"Makes sense. No library would let just one person check out all these books," Kirara noted.

"One of which is that friend of yours," Kengo continued.

"Tomoko?" Kirara pondered.

"So...that means Five suspects...on paper. But I am sure your friend never met Karma...so four," Kengo spoke.

"What? I never beat up a girl...recently…" Karma smiled, appearing next to Kengo and making the others jump.

"Like I said...I'm sure you never met her," Kengo continued undeterred, "I fear for the other group…"

"Wait! I just need to ask you questions!" Gentaro shouted, chasing some students around the stage, "Would it help if I spoke in that Shakespeare nonsense!?"

"I don't know who to help…" Terasaka muttered, "Kisaragi or the nerds…"

"Same," Yoshida sighed, "But it's probably better that we save the nerds."

"I get it...put on a mask and speak in rhymes that make no sense! That'll make us friends!" Gentaro declared, walking out wearing the Phantom of the Opera costume.

"Five more minutes…" Terasaka smirked.

"...Eh fair enough." Yoshida shrugged.

"How do you guys get anything done?" Miu asked.

"Brute strength…" they all replied, even Gentaro...who was currently swinging by a sandbag rope.

"Now I see why I was put in charge as boss of the meat heads…" she sighed.

"Hey...I'm smart...well smarter then Terasaka…" Yoshida argued.

"Oi!" Terasaka barked.

"Oh! I think they like me!" Gentaro spoke as the Drama club members carried him off, "Nevermind!" he cried from outside followed by crashing sounds, "And now I smell like lunch…yesterday's lunch...ugh..."

"Let me," Miu informed as she approached the Drama club members, "I'll get them out of here if you tell me if you know someone in your club that's been acting stranger than normal. Possibly more secretive or even more easily startled than usual."

"Deal…" they replied simply, most of the guys still swooning from seeing her in person.

"Great! Boys...help Gentaro," she ordered.

"Ah man...now we're goons…" Yoshida groaned.

"I strangely feel the same…" Terasaka spoke.

"Surprising no one…" Miu replied, "Now go and do your part. I'll handle the talking part. I get the feeling they are still open to talking to me."

"Oh! Who throws out a paddleball?" Gentaro asked outside as the two walked out, "Ah! It hit me in the eye! It missed the paddle and got me in the eye!"

"I swear if he gets pinkeye from this, I'm not taking the blame like the last time," Yoshida sighed.

"He's done this shit before?!" Terasaka gawked as they left.

"It'd be quicker to tell you what he hasn't done. Because where Gen-san goes...misadventure follows."

"Hm...good to know," Miu noted.

"So...we have some matching suspects from both results," Kengo spoke as they regrouped in their...to his chagrin, base of operations: the Rabbit Hutch...IE the Kamen Rider Club room.

"Seems like it," Miu replied, "Now there's one important thing to settle it all." she turned to Kengo and held up several photos of students, "Who have you beaten up before your expulsion?"

"Meh they all kinda mesh together after a while…" Karma shrugged, "But I mean...I only give them what they deserve."

"How charming…" Miu replied sarcastically.

"Hmm...These two look oddly familiar...but how and why…" he muttered, "No...that's not it...hmm…"

*squeeeeeeaaaaaak… squeeeeeeaaaaak*

"..."

*spritz spritz*

*squeeeeeeaaaaaak… squeeeeeeaaaaak*

"..." everyone slowly turned their heads to one of the Rabbit Hutch's windows where Korosensei was spraying it on the other side with an astronaut helmet over his head before using a squeegee to clean the cleaner off it.

"Oh-hoh-hoh...Him…" Karma's eye twitched.

"Now, Korosensei?" Miu groaned.

=Space dust...What you gonna do?= he chuckled =Couldn't even see the constellations properly through it to make some star maps for an astronomy assignment for tomorrow and I couldn't deny my students a nice clean view outside of the windows because of it, either=

"We have the best sensei," Gentaro chuckled.

'And just like that…' Kengo thought as Karma started to bite his thumb, 'He is back to being stressed.'

"Focus boys...your fragile male egos second...lives in danger first," Miu reminded, "Firstly...we have two better suspects...Mow we can send those of us who can blend into a normal crowd to spy on them."

"..."

"Not you, Gentaro…" Miu cut him off.

"Ah…" he groaned in defeat.

"I'll send one little spy after the first one," Kengo spoke as Burgermeal drove around his desk.

"I've wondered about this thing...why a burger?" Karma asked.

"Dad had a weakness for western fast food…" Kengo coughed.

"As in 'in general'?" Kaede blinked.

"Yep...next one is French Fries," he revealed, turning to an unfinished little robot which had little pincer like claws.

"I name you Potechokin…" Gentaro smiled.

"Because of course," Kaede noted, nearly everyone giving a sweatdrop at how blunt Gentaro was.

"Your dad had a heck of a addiction…" Karma noted, "Well...I mean there are worse ones…"

"Says the violent sociopath…" Kengo countered.

"And proud of it," Karma smirked.

=I am so glad I kept those books from when I thought it was Gentaro-kun who'd be the violent sociopath= Korosensei noted, now looking at some familiar books while cleaning the window.

"Must you?" Miu deadpanned as Karma began biting his thumb once more.

=Of course. As a teacher, I have to be responsible for everyone= Korosensei replied.

'I don't think he's getting it,' most of the students thought.

Scorpio walked through the trees as it came just short of view of the Class E building. The High level Zodiart watched as the students within muddled through the middle of the day. It knew its newest Switcher was going to make its move today. If they fulfilled their need for vengeance, then surely that would push them to evolve finally. This would be the final act to cost them humanity. All Scorpio needed to do was stop Fourze from interfering again. The plan was simple this time: they wouldn't hold back. Surely, this Korosensei would be too flustered to protect both students at once.

Scorpio's eyes turned to the side as he heard the whistle of a fired arrow. It then blinked as Korosensei appeared at the window catching the arrow.

"You forgot to put a return to sender address!" Korosensei shouted, tossing it back resulting in a squawk of surprise as the Corvus Zodiart fell from his place in the treetops, "Boy, I sure hope that didn't hurt too badly...I'd hate Karasuma-san to scold me again…At least I didn't hit them. Just the branch they were on. If it is a student, I don't want to go against my agreement after all. Oh, Karam-kun, how do you like this pattern for your nails? I noticed how off-putting you seemed from yesterday's application."

'He's forbidden from hurting students,' Scorpio thought, 'No wonder he tended to act more as a distraction.'

"Ah yes, yes...Gentaro-kun! Omae no debanda~" Korosensei laughed as the wall exploded, letting Fourze slam his Rocket Module into the Zodiarts' chest, "Now he...eh, well he's allowed to hurt you...He is a delinquent after all. Why fight the stereotype as long as it helps us?" he laughed, his face changing to its taunting coloration of green and yellow stripes.

"Again with the window!"

"Ack! K-Karasuma-san!" Korosensei panicked, quickly going to work repairing the wall within an instant, "Gyah! Gomen! Gomen! Gomen nasai!"

Scorpio's hand met their face. This thing was supposedly some planetary threat...and yet it fears superiors like any everyday idiot. Wait, this was no time for distractions...where did the fighting super powered children go?

"AHA!" Fourze shouted, crashing through several trees, "This time I got you, Karasu yaro! Now get rid of the switch and become my pal before I kick your ass so hard I need to wait for you to get out of the hospital!"

"Nevermore!"

"Whoa! Nearly got me in the foot with that! Alrighty, that's it!"

=LAUNCHER ON=

'There they are,' Scorpio thought as they watched several explosions go off in another part of the mountain's forest.

"There they are," Karma spoke, standing next to Scorpio, the Horoscopes turned to him only to be slashed across the face by his new Anti-Zodiarts knife, "Man...I gotta get more of these…" he smirked as the Horoscopes stumbled back in pain, "I don't know why...but for some reason when I see you...I really get the urge to kill you...oh...you're a teacher, aren't you?" he asked as the monster looked at him with wide eyes, "Bingo…" he smirked, flipping his knife around, "Oh...you suck at this. You know that, right? I mean...a monster in a school handing out these things to mentally unstable kids with issues...oh yeah teacher...If you were a student, you'd hand them out to any rando...but no, you pick carefully. That...that gives you away by a mile, Teach."

"How…"

"It's easy...I'm smarter than you," Karma spoke, "That and compared to the Tako...you're kinda easy." he spoke while tossing the knife as Scorpio caught it, only to be blindsided as Karma kicked the hilt and pushed it right into the Horoscopes chest, "Bet you won't be able to screw with Kisaragi like that, now will ya?" he smirked as Scorpio stumbled back a step, "I don't need to be stronger than you, to know...beating you is easier than just hitting you till you go boom."

"GH! Wh-what is this made of…?"

"Well right now it's an Anti-sensei weapon I guess…" Karma replied, before he looked off to the side, "I wouldn't sit there if I was you." he smiled before running off.

"Lock on Rocket barrage!" Fourze shouted as missiles rained from the sky after the Corvus Zodiarts.

"...Now I'm past mad," the Horoscope growled before throwing off its robes, letting them create a deep dent in the ground, "I am livid."

"Omae…" Fourze spoke, landing as he dismissed his weapons, "You're back for round two, Sasori guy?" he asked sliding his hands back across the sides of his helmet making a squeaky sound as he did, "Bring it on...Kisaragi Gentaro never backs down from a fight...and Kamen Rider Fourze never loses twice to the same flippy kung-fu shit!" he replied, skipping around on his feet.

Scorpio roared as he swung an arm out, releasing a cloud of golden dust. Fourze jumped as he activated Rocket and let the Module roar to life as its jets let loose a gust that blew the dust away. He spun around as the jet died down. As he did, he swung forward letting the Rocket Module turn on and propel him forward landing a punch to Scorpio, making the Horoscope grunt as they were sent flying back a few inches. Scorpio grunted in shock.

"I told you...I don't lose twice...and I got friends who drill tricks into my fighting style," Fourze replied, "Two on one ain't very manly...but I'll take you both on. Ikuze!"

Fourze rushed forward as he swung and backhanded Corvus, making him stumble back. He then jumped and used his jetpack to adjust himself to lift his body up sideways and kick Scorpio, making him fall back with a grunt of pain. Fourze landed as he began running while low to the ground. His arm grabbed Corvus's leg and used the momentum to trip the Zodiarts over. Fourze jumped up before he raised his arm and blocked Scorpio's next kick. He grunted as the stinger was mere inches from his mask before rolling around and grabbing the Horoscopes' leg under his arm, putting them in an unbalanced position. Fourze slotted a new switch as he activated it.

=CHAINSAW ON!=

Fourze swung around as he kicked Corvus, making him grunt in pain as they were slashed by the chainsaw module. Fourze swung his left leg and tripped Scorpio as he spun around and pulled out a New Astroswitch, this one numbered 11 and colored orange with two switches that crossed one another. He slotted it into the Square section after removing Radar. He quickly turned the switch as the two Zodiarts rushed him.

=SCISSORS ON!=

His left arm flashed as what looked like an arts-and-crafts pair of scissors attached to the Square Module Basement. It also somewhat looked like a sword while closed given the orange sharp serrated edges. He swung, slashing Scorpio, before swinging his arm across his chest and using the module to stab into Corvus's chest when he got too close. He swung around slashing both before he put his hand to the handles and opened the scissors, causing them to begin glowing. Fourze jumped back as he swung his left arm, sending a cutting wave of orange energy at the ground and sending both flying back from the shockwave. Scorpio growled before summoning more of the glowing dust. The dust reformed, becoming a group of robed figures with short swords in their hands.

"No one said anything about this," Fourze gasped, he grunted swinging blocking several swings, "Why are they Ninjas!? Hey, wait a minute...Ninjas don't wear black...Ah! Fake Ninjas!"

Scorpio pointed a claw at Fourze and the 'fake ninjas' charged at him once more. Fourze grunted as he swung his weapons around and blocked all their sword swings. He grunted, blocking several with the Scissor module before blinking. He slammed it closed and clipped their swords. The dust Ninjas stepped back in shock at that. Fourze jumped back as he deactivated his Modules and began trying to think of a plan.

"AH! I never trained for grunts...the guys never gave me ideas for them either!?" Fourze panicked, "I fight Man to man unless it's a woman...then it's Man to Woman...but I've never thought of a catchphrase for Man to...Ninja army!"

The dust ninjas huddled together for a few moments before several whipped out bo staff, nunchaku, and sai and charged once more.

"Ah, so now you wanna be accurate…" he groaned, "Alright...bring it on! I'm man enough to take on all of you!" he declared.

The Dust Ninjas began to move, only to stop as a yellow blur shot through their formation and making them all fall over. Several got up only to be carried off by the blur. It came back and dropped the taken Ninjas like bombs from a plane, letting them slam into their comrades. The blur came to a stop next to Fourze revealing Korosensei, dressed up in navy blue and a cloth over his head.

"So Karma-kun believes the Scorpion is a teacher...while I promised to hurt no students...Faculty who have taken to hurting our young students is a different story!" Korosensei explained, "Also, an army of enemies against one rookie? Hardly seems fair!"

"Gh!" Scorpio grunted.

"But you're still not worth my time!" Korosensei laughed, his face gaining green stripes once more, "But Kengo-kun was kind enough to be an overachiever...and make these." he replied while holding his tentacle up before snapping them like fingers.

The Ninjas blinked before a barrage of BB's shot out from the trees and pelted them. However, instead of bouncing off, sparks began exploding off of them as they seemed to be pelted by real bullets.

"Oh! Anti-Zodiarts BBs!" Fourze realized.

"Still not a single hit on me~" Korosensei chimed as he dusted his shoulder, "But...I guess this means that the advantage of grunts is gone as Fourze has a much better team supporting him. So Scorpio-kun let's begin this fight again...this time with the whole E class to educate you!"

"Yosh...this is my kind of fight then! Let's settle this One on one! While my friends deal with your goons!" Fourze cheered, slamming down on the Rocket Switch and letting him shoot up into the air before shooting back down, "Rider Rocket Punch!" he roared, punching the Corvus Zodiart making him cry in pain as sparks flew.

Scorpio grunted, running to fight only to be struck in the chest by a slightly larger BB. As the monster stumble, it was peppered by more from multiple angles. It then blinked as the rest of the E Class students stepped out finally.

"We might not be able to take down the Tako…" Kengo began.

"But compared to Korosensei...you're slow as hell!" Karma cheered, reloading his gun.

"...Heh," Scorpio chuckled before vanishing in a burst of cosmic energy.

=ROCKET DRILL LIMIT BREAK!=

"Rider Rocket Drill Kick!" Fourze roared as he headed down at Corvus only for Scorpio to appear before the Zodiarts, "Eh?!"

Scorpio swung its arms out, releasing more dust that became the dust Ninjas. Fourze's kick slammed into them as Scorpio grasped the Zodiarts and vanished in another burst. Fourze grunted as he fell onto his rear. He deactivated the modules as he pushed himself back up.

"Nanda...they ran away!?" he gawked before slapping the sides of his helmet in frustration, "Ne...this bit is getting old!"

"Good thinking on this ammo for the Zodiarts, Kengo," Isogai complimented.

"Oi...When could Zodiarts teleport?" Muramatsu questioned.

"I wish I could teleport…" Okajima noted, his nose bleeding a little as a blush formed on his cheeks.

"Terasaka," Miu spoke before a thwacking noise went off followed by Okajima's pained yelp, "Thank you."

"At least we have a way to help support you, Gen-chan!" Yuki beamed, swinging her arms up.

*POP*

"EEYOW!" Korosensei yelped, shooting up in the air while grabbing his behind.

"Oopsie," Yuki gawked.

"They may be made for Zodiarts, but they're still Anti-Sensei BBs infused with Cosmic Energy," Kengo reminded as most of the students started laughing as it caught up to them what Yuki just did.

"Double homework for everyone who laughed!" Korosensei declared, his cheeks bright pink as he sweated heavily.

"Ah, no!" Fourze panicked, having been one who laughed.

"SO PETTY!" the others who laughed barked in shock.

"Grr…" Scorpio growled, kicking a trash can over as it returned to the main campus, the Corvus Zodiart looked around awkwardly as it looked up at its monstrous suporter, "If I want my investment in you to pay off...you must leave this school…"

"But…"

"If you evolve past what you are now...Karma Akabane will forever be below you. No longer will he hold any power over you. You...you will have the power to do whatever you want? Finally your perfect production shall come to fruition…"

"Boku no…?" he spoke as he pulled out his switch and changed back to his normal self, revealing a student with curly black hair and a very innocent looking face, "Me...have power?" he asked as a smirk formed on his face, "How can I say no to that?!" he giggled.

"You are my great investment...Tatsumori Yamada…" Scorpio finished as he nodded simply.

"Ah…" Most of E class groaned the next day as they were tired from all the extra homework they needed to do.

"You'll never take me alive!" Fourze shouted as he ran from Korosensei.

"Come back here, Gentarou-kun!" Korosensei called as he chased him.

"And yet another day learning from an octopus-like creature...What has life become?" Miu shook her head before looking out at the nearby cliffside to see Karma standing and looking out to the distance, "And also another day of him failing to get to Korosensei."

"Karma is indeed odd…" Kengo spoke up, "But I think deep down...he's better than most."

"How rare for Kengo-kun to compliment anybody!" Yuki complained, "And it's a jerk like Karma...why does it make me feel jealous!?"

"You won't get me!" Fourze declared, shooting by only to yelp as Gentaro tumbled and stopped near Karma.

"Gotcha~" Korosensei chuckled, waving the FourzeDriver.

"Oh not again," Kengo growled as Karma looked at it.

"Hmm...Yo, Sensei, I think you scuffed the belt," Karma noted.

"Eh?!" Korosensei exclaimed as he looked at it, "Gah! I did! Oh Kengo-kun is gonna get Karasuma-sensei on me!"

"Ah, I have some polish to clean it," Karma replied.

"Oh, thank you!" Korosensei thanked, handing it to Kengo, who looked at it before looking at Korosensei.

"...I'd just like to confirm it, but Korosensei, you're a teacher, right?"

"Hm? Why, yes, yes I am," Korosensei replied.

"So would a teacher put their life on the line to protect their students?" Karma asked.

"Of course. A teacher's a teacher after all," Korosensei replied.

"I see...That's good," Karma noted as he took out his gun, "In that case, I can definitely…" he moved back...and fell off the cliff, "...Kill you."

"?! GAH!" Gentaro yelped, "He fell with the belt!"

'For sure…' Karma began as his mind worked on his plan, his thought processing fast enough to seemingly slow his fall to his perspective, 'What's it going to be? If you come to save me, I'll shoot you. And if you let me fall, you'll be a murderer and can never be a teacher again! Aha...whoa...everything's all flashing before my eyes!'

Within his mind, Karma could see his memories...primarily the events that lead to his arrival in the E Class. He remembered it well...He came across an A-Class student...whatever his name was. He was tall and lanky with classic nerdy traits of large circular glasses and etcetera. He didn't care...all he saw was someone bullying another student; it was cruel. The things he said, the things he did, he didn't care who this guy was. The things he was doing to an Upperclassman was wrong. He had to stop him, ah that's right. That Senpai was also in E class.

"Daijobu senpai?" Karma asked the upperclassmen as he slammed the A Class student's head into the wall, his hand never leaving his face, "3-E? You mean that 3-E? How awful something like that deciding your fate." the student asked him something, "Huh? I'm in the right here. What's wrong with helping out a bullied student?" he smiled.

The memory suddenly flashed as Karma was sitting before the student he beat up who had his arm in a sling and bandages around his head. A teacher scowling at Karma...why though. Why was he being looked at like this. He was doing the right thing...

"No, Akabane. No matter how I look at it, you were in the wrong," his previous teacher informed with a stern glare at the shocked Karma.

'Eh?'

"There's something wrong with your head!" he continued to berate Karma as he motioned to the A Class student he beat up, now sporting a cast and sling on his right arm, a clutch under his left arm, and his head wrapped in bandages, "To go and give the top 3rd year honor student such serious wounds!-!"

'Eh? Hold on a second, Sensei,' Karma thought as, to his eyes, cracks began to form on the man's face as he continued to berate him for siding with the E-Class Student, 'You said you'd be on my side...then you end up saying something like that.'

"If this influences the results of his entrance exam, I'll be the one held responsible!" the teacher continued as the cracks began to connect, causing pieces of his flesh and muscles to fall and expose bone beneath.

'...Crap. He's dying. In my mind's eye, Sensei is dying.'

"The only thing right about you were your 's why I always stood up for you, but it's a different story if you're going to damage my reputation," he continued as more fell off until he was a skeleton in a suit, "I requested you to be switched to another class. Congratulations, Akabane-kun. Starting next semester, you will also be attending Class E."

'For him to be dead yet still alive...At that moment, I understood. He let me down. Now he's dead to me.' Karma walked away as the office was now in shambles, the desk destroyed, shelves knocked over and the teacher left a trembling quivering mess in the corner as he stared with a look of pure terror at the leaving Karma.

That's right to Karma. Teachers were nothing but lying adults who pretend to care for you. They pretend to side with you and understand you as long as you put in the work to make them look good. Nothing disgusted Karma more then that thought that these adults held so much power over students who merely wanted to live their own lives.

'Korosensei...You will die by my hand!-! Now, which 'death' will you choose?!' Karma thought before something shot past him and his fall was halted by a large net...a large yellow net, "Gh?!"

"Karma-kun, the deliberation put into this assassination was magnificent," Korosensei complimented, "Taking the FourzeDriver to prevent Gentaro-kun's interference followed by the fall...Why, if I had tried to catch you at the speed of sound, your body wouldn't have withstood it. On the other hand, if I had gone slower, I would be shot in the interim." Karma began to struggle only for the net made of Korosensei's tentacles to stick to him and prevent him from moving, "So, Sensei tried using a bit of stickiness."

'Dammit...These tentacles can do anything!' Karma thought before Korosensei moving to look over Karma.

"Like this, you can't shoot me. Nurufufufufufu," Korosensei chuckled, "Ah, by the way…For me, the option to abandon you doesn't exist." Karma froze at that, "Believe in me and jump whenever you like."

Karma paused for a moment at that, "Ah…" he sighed closing his eyes and smiling slightly, 'It's no good. He won't die and can't be killed. He stopped me from dying, too. It seems nothing can kill him. I can't even kill his existence as a teacher.'

"...aaaaaAAAAHHHHH!" Gentaro screamed as he landed in the net, "I'm alive!"

"N-NANI!? What are you doing, Gentaro-kun!?" Korosensei panicked, "You have no armor! No Modules! That would have killed you!"

"Karma did it! Besides, I have faith in you, Sensei!" Gentaro laughed.

"I have faith that one day you'll give me a heart attack!" Korosensei scolded him.

"Eh? Uh...I can't move," Gentaro noted, trying to move only for the sticky tentacle-made net to halt him.

"It's creepy right…" Karma chuckled.

"Gh! I'll just force my way free like a man!" Gentaro grunted, struggling harder, "Nope...it's not working...Karma, get the Korosensei Yujo knife in my sneaker!"

"I'm not touching your foot," Karma replied, "Wait. Yujo knife?"

"His knife and BBs are modified to just change the color of my body," Korosensei explained, "While he's against trying to assassinate me, I didn't want him to be left behind in the fun so a compromise was created." he face turned green stripes, "Nurufufufufu. Not much progress has been made by him, however. Last time, he got stuck in a tree by his own Hopping Module."

"Just you wait, Korosensei! One day for sure I'll make you agree to be my friend! You'll see! Kisaragi Gentaro never quits! Even if he has to deck his teacher to teach them!"

'What is with this guy?' Karma thought.

"Oh, I almost forgot! Karma, you were really reckless up there!" Gentaro noted, "You didn't even bat an eye!"

"...Not really," Karma replied as Korosensei flew them back up to the top of the cliff, "Having thought it over, I thought this would be the best way to kill him, "But I guess I'll have to quietly rework my plans for a while."

"Oh? You're out of plans already?" Korosensei asked while each of his tentacles was sporting a piece of items normally found in a salon or beauty shop, "I still have lots of things for retaliatory purposes."

"Is that my eyelash curler?!" Miu demanded.

"I'm feeling a much worse murderous intent from Senpai then from Karma…" Gentaro grunted as Korosensei began to sweat.

"Ah! Sensei, that's my mud mask!" Kaede exclaimed.

'I'm feeling murderous alright…' Karma sighed, not really wanting more of this grooming bit.

"Uh, n-now girls, I…"

"Ah! Hey, that's my skin lotion!"

"It's not...uh…"

"You've been using our care products to do all that to Karma?!"

"Um…"

"Get him, girls!" Miu ordered as all the girls of Class E roared with knives and guns at ready.

"EEEK!" Korosensei panicked as he fled with the girls in pursuit, leaving behind Gentaro and Karma.

"Girls are more scary then given credit for…" Gentaro muttered bluntly.

"Heh…" Karma chuckled, "Ah...I never felt such a desire to kill somebody. But...this time is different." he motioned his thumb across his neck, "I'll get him...someday, maybe even tomorrow,"

"He's not a half bad sensei...ne?" Gentaro chuckled as Korosensei, in his panic, climbed a tree to avoid the girls.

"Ah! I promise! I promise I'll pay you all back! I swear it! I have my wallet right he-EEK! Where's my wallet?!"

"Ah, I'm starving!" Karma cheered, tossing Korosensei's money purse up in his hand, "Let's round up this Club of yours and grab some food."

"Gyah?! KARMA-KUN! Isn't that change purse?!"

"Like I said, you leave things defenselessly in your office," Karma replied, "Food's on Sensei."

"Oh! Thanks, Sensei!" Gentaro beamed.

"RETURN THAT!-!"

"Sure~"

"ACK! YOU'RE TAKING THE CONTENTS OUT FIRST?!" Korosensei exclaimed before the branch broke, "...Uh oh." he yelped as he fell down flat on his face in the middle of the girls, "..."

"SHINEI!" the girls roared as they jumped him.

"Wait, no!" he cried.

"Thanks for the donation to the club, sensei!" Gentaro waved as he and Karma walked off.

"You get back here, you hypocritical delinquents!" Korosensei panicked, "ACK! Lefty~! Not again!-!"

"Idiots," Kengo deadpanned, watching the entire thing nearby, "I'm surrounded by them."

GT: Whew. This took a whole lot longer than needed. Then again, we were busy with so much the last year.
