The chase is on

Asuna gulped as she saw her rival and bully staring at her, both looking like a couple of cats that caught one large, featherless canary. With a nervous smile, the naked woman chuckled sheepishly.

"That, uh, that was quite a contest we had in the cafeteria, huh, Mikiro?" Asuna stammered as she eyed her rival. "I mean, you really outdid me with those yoga poses, but we came really darn close in all the others. However, being as it was all my idea, I think that I'll just crown you the winner instead. A-after all, you are so much better than I am!"

"Wait? It really was all your idea?" Rinji asked, a guilty feeling forming in his stomach.

"Yep! My idea! All mine!" Asuna replied quickly before turning her attention to Sakura. "And Sakura! Ol' Buddy, Ol' Pal! I know that I may have said things that I... Really regret, but if it makes you feel any better, you can tell everyone embarrassing secrets about me. For example, you still have Captain Icy Beard, I still sleep with my baby blankie. You stopped wetting the bed at nineteen, I wore diapers until I was twenty; and I'm twenty-two now. Totoro and Howl's Moving Castle make you cry, I cry at the end of Ponyo. You're afraid of clowns, I'm afraid of chickens. You sing karaoke in the tub, I can't even sing! And your pony undies? I'm butt naked. That's way more embarrassing! See?! I'm an even bigger, even more pathetic loser!"

Sakura growled.

"Wait that didn't come out right!" Asuna squeaked, shaking her head. "What I meant was, my secrets are way more embarrassing than yours. And with all of that said, maybe the three of us can realize that I've been a colossal idiot and come to some sort of agreement."

"Not bad, but here's my counter offer." Sakura snarled as she cracked her knuckles. "You get a thirty second head start."

"Really?"

"... Starting from when I said, 'payback'."

Not needing to be told twice, Asuna bolted down the steps and off the stage, racing past the laughing and cheering crowd with her mortarboard covering her womanhood and her arm over her breasts. Her face was glowing purple by the time she ran out into the halls.

"First one to catch her gets first dibs on making her pay!" Miriko called out as she and Sakura raced after the naked woman.

Asuna bolted down the halls, the girl on the verge of tears. This was a nightmare. A literal real-life nightmare!

She didn't know what Miriko was going to do, but if Sakura got her hands on her, then the only good thing about today was that Asuna's embarrassment was going to be short lived.

Asuna came to a classroom just as Professor Nakagawa stepped out. The man narrowed his eyes angrily at the young woman. "You!"

"Professor Nakagawa! Please! You gotta help me!" Asuna begged, "Miriko and Sakura are after me! And I'm completely naked!"

"Oh, so now you're embarrassed?" Nakagawa asked sarcastically. "And after you insulted me and made a mockery of my class, you expect me to help you?!"

"Please!"

Nakagawa huffed in a mixture of annoyance and anger before a smirk came to his face. "You know what?" He said as he pulled out his cell phone and dialed a number, "I will help you out."

"Oh thank you!" Asuna said as the professor placed the phone to his ear. "Thank you so -"

"Yes, Police?" Nakagawa said into the phone, causing Asuna's stomach to drop as he walked back into his classroom. "I'd like to report a streaker running around the halls of Osakawa University. Send someone immediately!"

Nakagawa then closed and locked the door as Asuna let out a mortified squeak before pounding on the door. "Professor?! Professor Nakagawa, please!"

"She went that way!" Asuna heard Sakura's voice call out, causing the naked woman to let out a squeak before running down the halls once more.
