Minnows in a Shark Pond Alyona see's to the preparations on this Saturday's tea party herself, as usual. None of the servants had a good sense for kind of decor and she offered them them mercy in not beating that sense into them. Such a thing would be too petty, and today of all days would get blood on an otherwise pristine Angelic Pretty coordinate.
Her hair was curled for the occasion and she woke up early to make sure her appearance was as perfect as possible, as well as to clean up any contraband or documents from the darker side of the Census Clubs work. They kept the animals in check by making them work for their money instead of relying on their entitlement, it also made sure that she stayed in power as long as the scheme ran cause she controlled the flow of power and wealth.

If only she could monetize entry to the student council room....

While the darker parts of her mind considered the feasibility of renting out keys to locks she puts on the student council room, it takes a back seat to the chime of the call button from the gate:
Alyona is confused by their being 2 girls at her door, one an expected guest and the other very unexpected.
Meliyaya was the former, her usual teatime buddy since she liked the pleasant formality of the whole thing. The little girl was so cute even Alyona's colder side could only want to keep her out of trouble and away from her seedier activities. It helped that she even spoke Russian, so she couldn't miscommunicate her thoughts. The girl wore a more cobbled together style, mimicing Alyona's Lolita fashion given they made few pieces for girls as small as her. Alyona was waiting for her birthday to come to commission a dress for her proportions.
The other guest was more concerning, though her happy expression and a lack of any of the student councils muscle being around assured here she wasn't found out: Madoka would be tall and imposing if she wasn't the schools main social butterfly who probably had a career as a Japanese diplomat awaiting her. Her signature style was a cheerful Gyaru, showing more skin with a pink floral crop top, long flashy nails, equally flashy makeup, and a jean miniskirt.
"[Hiya!]" Madoka says into the intercom as she waves in the distance.
"[Привет!] Yaya says as she jumps and waves.
The two are buzzed inside of Alyona's fortress of a house. She had already told the guards the hide their weapons or else, she had a reputation to maintain after all.


"...So somebody actually drank the yucky juice?" Yaya says to Madoka as she sips on her tea, the tower of pastries on the center of the table glimmering in the sun as muchas the fine china.
"Of course not! It was actually water I put a bunch of food dye in to get everyone to try their best tennis instead of slacking. We didn't make middle school reigonals, but we did have alot of fun!" Madoka says, her place at the table hasitly assembled. There was an uneven amount of sweets, something Alyona would adjust for in the future.

"So what did you do with the bottle then?" Alyona says, cocking her head.
"I dumped it down the sink one night when it started to stink on a shelf. Legend says even now, Kagoeka's sewers harbor a monster made of NASTY JUICE!" Madoka says with theatrical flair, causing both of the other girls to laugh.
"If I see that juice in a bleeding zone I'll make sure to call for its creator to step in an resolve it personally" Alyona says with a cocky smile.
"Alyona... are you sure you should be going into those? I know your quite strong but Kuki-chan always says you leave a huuuuge mess" Madoka says cautously, not wanting to provoke her.
"As long as my Tovarichi are with me, nothing can challenge us. Its my service to the community" Alyona says with her charms fully turned on

Yaya gets a sad look: "I wish someone would protect Ai-san... she seems so sad and that makes me really sad..."
Madoka pats the girls head, and Alyona takes a sip: "Would it make you feel better to them brought to justice?" the Russian asks.
"Yes! they need to learn better manners than to be so mean to someone because their life is as hard as Ai-san's!" Yaya says passionately.
Madoka looks at Alyona in the knick of time: her smile warps for a second into something gleeful and sharp. She doesn't linger on the sight for too long before refocusing on the foreigners eyes as she speaks.
"I agree, Sailor Moon would punish such people quickly and make them realize the error in their ways" Alyona says as the plans on monetizing the student councils time halt on her darker side: she wanted to see whoever made Yaya frown never even think they have the power to wound Alyona in such a way ever again.


5 girls enter their respective restroom with one being a captive Ai Suishi who is pushed against the wall as the door to the bathroom closed and small gang boxes their prey in. The other 4 are generic looking girls who have desperately added accessories and worn their hair differantly to try and stand out, even the leader being a brown-haird girl with large silver hoop earrings as her defining look.
"I'm suprised you know, you don't stink like shit today!" the leader says, playing wth a silver earring as she paces and speaks in a cocky tone.
"So me and my friends decided to help you stay clean" she says as the go to the stalls and take some buckets of somewhat dirty water out, 1 per girl.
Ai just trembles on the floor and waits to be soaked. She deserved it after all, every bit of abuse to her mind and body in her mind was something she had to suffer. When the door opens again, Ai doesn't even look. It was probably just a lookout confirming nobody was coming to help: She could not have been more wrong when she glanced up at the blonde twintailed girl and the two people she brought with her. One was a white-haired girl with an eyepatch, the only Asian of the group. The other was a tall and burly boy with a fucked up looking face who looked terrifying posed aside the short Russian girl who led them.

"Why don't you keep going while we record the audio, Hanabatake-san? Give the student council a real show before you get punished. And it will be something a bit more severe given they just rescued her from another group of bullies in addition to all your other offenses"
"Oh your on her side now Gaijin? You can record me talking all you want but just because your little clerical club can talk to the president doesn't mean your word means anything" Hanabatke says back to Alyona, her cronies nodding along.

Alyona thinks for a moment as Renka continues to record the confrontation on a tape: "I'm on the side of love and justice" she says before grabbing the recorder and turning off the recording.
"Now, Hanabatake-san: you and your pathetic excuse of a gang can put the ice water down, or I can make you feel exactly what you were going to inflict on Poor Suishi-san"
The lead girl's look is defiant as she dumps a pale of ice water onto Ai, cubes included to incrase the pain. One other girl does the same before Archie starts forcing the pales of water out of their hands without the need for a command. he's about to knock them over, but a head shake from Alyona tells him to leave them. One last girl has a bucket, but as Archie turns his gaze toward her and appraoches, she starts to shake. Her boss isn't moving into help her and hte large boy is getting closer and closer. Her first instinct kicks in, and she sheepishly surrenders her weapon of thermal warfare.
"Thank's, now get lost while we deal with your boss and make better friends next time" he says. The 3 underlings run as Hanabatake seethes.
"Get back here! We outnumber them!" the leader insists. Her answer is the door closing behind her.

Renka stands in front of the door: "You made your own hell: it is a mistake all will make, but yours will be earthly"
Archie rolls his eyes as he grabs Hanabatake's wrist and steps on a foot headed for his crotch: "Wrong move" he says in simple, intentionally Oafish sounding Japanese.
Alyona approaches Ai and sees her shivering with her eyes closed, shutting the whole experiance out. She'd heard about this girl and as a bully herself wondered how bad it was. There was no business here, nothing she owed these girls or the boys who had attacked her before. It was just animalistic sadism enforced by a system where demoralizing the disadvantaged is what children were compelled to do. Lenin would weep seeing a soul so used to being tread on.
"Suishi-chan: up" Alyona orders in a nice voice.
The large girl slowly brings herself upright to see one of her many bullies seemingly at the Census clubs mercy. She looks at Hanabatake for a second and no more, seeing only hate in her eyes.
"I brought you a new uniform since in case they made this decision: change but give me the one your wearing now" Alyona says as she takes a folded girls unform in her size out.
"...Why?" Ai asks
"Because she's going to be wearing the stink she hates so much home while gettings a chance to freeze herself" Alyona responds with a more cruel smile.
Ai wordlessly goes to change in a stall as Alyona looks her prey over by walking around her: "I expected this sort of thing from the private schools I went to in Saint Petersburg, but I expected Japan to have a better solution to people like you than for someone like me to take action"
"Yeah, your no better than me, glad you know" Hanabatake growls.
Alyona pulls on her hair as hard as she can for just a moment to shut the girl up: "I wanted to resolve this with civility, because a friend of mine was deeply upset bullies like you still haunt the schools halls. But you proved yourself no more than a human-shaped animal, so you will have to learn like on: through punishment and pain"
Ai listens from the stall, not wanting to come out in the short sleeved uniform. Her usual undershirt was sopping wet and her grotesque body was bad enough when hidden under her usual clothes. Alyona knocks on her stall: "Come out when your done, I don't want you to miss the fun part"
Ai unlocks the door and folds her arm behind her back so they can barely be seen, witnessing Alyona forcefully undress Hanabatake and dunk her clothes in a bucket of Ice water.
Hanabatake's body was scrawny and weak looking as Ai surrendurs her old, beat-up uniform to Alyona, save for the undershirt. The bully squirms as her opponent forces the large-sized sailor top on her chest, the fabrics sagging from being saturated with water. The tights tear on the way up her legs, the ratty skirt can barely cling around her waist. Alyona dumps one of the remaining buckets on her for good measure.
Ai looks away: she deserved this, not her. Archie kept her in place and resisted her attempts to try and break his grip while Renka watched on, the look in her eyes saying that their victim deserved this pain.

Alyona taps Ai's shoulder, her smile more wicked than before: "How can you look away? Your getting justice for what they've no doubt done to you a hundred times over! If you let an opressor walk all over you then you will never win against them, even a futile effort at resistance is better than rolling over and letitng them play with their food!"
"So make her truly afraid to mess with you again: what do you want done now?"
Ai wanted this all to stop, but Alyona's presence was strong. She forces herself to look at the humiliated and humbled girl. The one things that shined on her that wouldn't hurt her too much stuck out like a sore thumb next to her uniform.
"Her... Her earrings" she mutters just loud enough for Alyona to her.
"Your will be done" Alyona says as Archie stops Hanabatake from thrashing around while she slides them out of her piercings and hands them to Ai.
"Renka? Do the honors" Alyona says Archie releases the lesser bully, the white-haired girl capturing a photo of Hanabatake in all her misery.
"Its not blackmail, don't worry. But if you ever think about hurting another student, I'll make you never live down your reputation. Employers will look at your records and find this event if you don't start playing nice with your peers. Honestly, I thought Japan would be better about this" Alyona says in a cold, angry tone.

Ai leaves with Alyona and her club, but tries to leave just as quickly. Alyona's voice stops her, like an authority greater than a teacher was speaking:
"I meant what I said: if they expect weakness from, you show strength. Your bigger than them anyways: you choose to be a victim and your letting them make you miserable. Thats not a good thing"

Ai doesn't want to acknowledge their words. Her mind had long internalized the idea that she was worthless, and the idea that she should even fight for some self resepct had only been very recent. Alyona's piercing blue eyes were the opposite of Ai's own in what they said. The foreigners eyes would break before bending and make everyone bleed with her if it meant some last show of force. Ai's eyes gave up before they even started and offered no fight, focused endlessly on Shu as her own body and mind rotted away.
She didn't mind that for so long, so the being told she should twice recently must be a sign of some sort as the Census club chooses to get her driven home in a fancy car with a bald European man in the drivers seat: Its no suprise a girl like Alyona owned more than schoolchildren.
