School started again, and strangely, Setsuna didn't show up on the first day... or the second... or the entire week. The teachers gave excuses but never properly explained why.
And Setsuna wasn't answering her phone. Septarion said maybe she just wasn't feeling well, and I wanted to believe that. After all, we had an amazing Christmas, even if the food I made wasn't exactly "edible" like it should have been.
So I tried to put it out of my mind, but time passed, and now it's been ten days since she last spoke to me on the phone, ten days since she showed up at school, and ten days since she's been seen at the magical girls' base.
On top of that, Septarion strangely mentioned that monster activity has gone crazy. Strong monsters are starting to hide away, leaving everything "stalled," while weak monsters are fleeing the city like mad.
