Mitsuru doesn't believe Yukari for a second

(chapter originally by Phantom Pen at writing.com)

The look on Mitsuru's face told Yukari that her senpai didn't believe before the redhead even opened her mouth to speak.

"Takeba, do you honestly think I'd believe such a ridiculous lie? I've been dealing with Shadows for years now, and if any of them practiced such deviant behavior I'd have encountered it by now." Mitsuru said, her tone stern and her face a mask of anger. "Now give me the truth. What in the world are you doing out here completely naked?"

Shaking, Yukari wracked her brain for another excuse. She couldn't tell Mitsuru the truth, she just couldn't! Aside from being humiliating, it would likely enrage Yukari's senpai to hear that Yukari had stepped out into the night like this willingly. Sadly for Yukari, she spent too long trying to come up with a better cover story, and the naked brunette found herself being grabbed by the shoulder by her angry redheaded senior.

"Takeba! I am waiting, and you'd better not try lying to me again. You do NOT want to make me any angrier than I already am." Mitsuru said, her grip on Yukari's shoulder reinforcing her iron will.

Shaking, Yukari saw no option but to tell Mitsuru the truth. How she had left the dorm like this, the incident at the station, losing track of time and the Dark Hour ending with her exposing herself completely. With every word from Yukari's mouth, Mitsuru's demeanor grew darker. By the time Yukari was done, Mitsuru was almost shaking with anger.

"What in the world is wrong with you?" Mitsuru hissed. "Exposing yourself, playing with yourself in public, going out during the Dark Hour without your Evoker?! What if a Shadow had attacked, what then? And did you consider the ramifications of you essentially appearing out of midair in front of all those people? Do you have any idea what kind of damage control the Kirijo Group will need to do for that?!"

"I-I-I'm sorry, senpai." Yukari mumbled, unable to look Mitsuru in the eye.

"Oh no. You're not sorry. Not yet." Mitsuru said, now yanking Yukari along and pulling her into a side alley. "You will be sorry after your punishment, however."

Punishment? Hadn't humiliating herself been enough? But Yukari knew better than to argue with Mitsuru right now. Instead, she simply hung her head in shame and listened to Mitsuru declare her punishment.
