On the way back from the sushi bar incident where he almost got chidoried by Kyoko-sensei, Tao walked home like usual. Suddenly, he was chloroformed by someone and was knocked unconscious by the unknown kidnapper. He stayed asleep for four hours, and, by ten o'clock, he woke up, strapped to a chair inside a dusty basement.

After he had seen his surroundings, Tao began to panic. No matter how hard he looked, the boy saw no possible way out. The doors were locked shut and the walls seemed sturdy abd extremely durable. With his hands tied, he couldn't conjure up any sort of flames, so, all Tao could do was wait.

A few minutes later the door finally opened, revealing a tall, slim figure in the dark doorway. The boys eyes widened, taking in the figures familiar appearance. Even though he tried to think of all the possible people that could share the same looks as this person, Tao still couldn't believe the woman that stood before him.

"A-Asuka?"

The girl was indeed Asuka Koizumi. With a pair of blood covered scissors in her hand, the pale skinned girl approached Tao, snapping them as she came closer. The boy wriggled in his chair, screaming.

"Why are you doing this, Asuka?!"

The girl didn't say a word. All she did was smile. A wide, horrific grin that shot fear into Tao's heart. He was helpless. No Azhul to help him or any jutsu yo defend him. This was it. He was about to die.

"Asuka, please, stop this! What have I ever done to you?"

Finally, Asuka stopped, only inches away from the boy. She stooped down to Tao's level, making eye contact with the terrified boy. Her amber eyes glinted with insanity, as if they were dancing with some sort of excitement. Asuka, now only a few inches from Tao's face, smiled with delight. Grabbing a piece of cloth from her pocket, Asuka blindfolded Tao, giggling as he struggled out of the ropes.

"Asuka, what the fuck do you think you're doing?! Get me outta here!"

"Oh, don't worry, Tao-kun. You won't mind if I have a little fun with you for a bit, right?"

The girl began to cackle, only frightening Tao even further. This wasn't the Asuka he knew... This was a psychopathic girl he was talking to! He struggled and wriggled, but nothing could get him out of these ropes. They had been tied well all right. There was no chance of escape at this point.

Oh my God... What's gonna happen to me?

Asuka's hand caressed the boy's head, ruffling it gently as he tried to pull himself off the chair. She didn't say anything for the next few minutes... All she did was laugh. Then, Asuka raised her scissors, ready to cut.

Then, snip.

A lock of hair fell softly to the ground, causing the girl to laugh even harder. She ran her fingers through Tao's hair, the grin remaining on her ghostly face.

"That's some fine ass hair you got there, little boy..." she whispered into Tao's ear.

The next day, Tao remained in Asuka's basement, his voice beginning to crack from all the screaming. He had no idea what Asuka had done to him last night, and he didn't want to know either. Shivers trailed down his spine as he heard the door creak open, footsteps beginning to approach him.

"Good morning, Tao-kun. Are you awake now?"

That voice. It was Asuka again.

"Wha-What did you do to me, Asuka? Wh-Why are you even doing this anyway? I thought... I thought you were...

Before he could finish, the blindfold was swiped off. Tao blinked a few times, trying to get his eyes used to his surroundings again. In front of him was Asuka, holding a jar of black stuff in her hands. Tao gasped.

"Wha-What the fuck is that? Are you crazy?"

The girl ignored him, untying the ropes that had bounded him for several hours. Asuka smiled as he leaped out of his chair, rushing towards the door.

"Oh, no, it's fine... I've got what I need now anyway. You may be on your way now, Tao-kun~"

Sprinting out of Asuka's house, the boy rushed to home, locking himself in his room. The boy began to shiver, tiptoeing towards his bed.

"Just... Just what did Asuka do to me last night?"

It was then when he went through all the possibilities in his head, running through each and every scenario. Just what had she done to him? Did she physically scar him? Or pulled off all his nails? Or even worse...

Shit... Don't tell me she did that to me last night...?!"

In panic, the boy scratched at his head, only to notice something different. It was then when he realized his head of luscious hair treated by the finest of loreal shampoos was completely gone.

After that, Tao ran away. He couldn't possibly let anyone see him like this, right? Asuka had gone straight to the roots and pulled every single strand out, and now, Tao was a small bald boy. He looked like a skin-coloured bowling ball! If he were to go out into public again without his head full of hair, he would be shamed by the masses for sure. How likes a fourteen year old boy with no sexy hair at all? His hair was his life... He had to get it back somehow.

"I know what I'll do. I'll find a cure. A plant, herb, anything will do as long as I can get my hair back! As long as I'm bald, I can't show my face to the village!"
