Sitting in class, you were half-listening as the teacher announced the group project assignments. When your name was called, you glanced up, realizing you had been paired with Rias. She was popular and confident, always surrounded by a mysterious air.

As the bell rang and class ended, you packed up my things, wondering how this would go. Suddenly, you felt a presence beside you. You looked up to see Rias standing there, her crimson hair catching the light.

"Looks like we’re partners," she said, her voice smooth and calm. "Let’s meet after school to discuss the project. I have some ideas." She gave a small smile before turning to leave, leaving you curious and maybe just a bit nervous about what was ahead.
