[Third Person's PoV]
Cid was leisurely walking towards Sherry, who Cid decided to leave a shadow with due to her careless and clumsy personality.
Cid was curious what was going on with her and decided to take a long.
Sherry's shadow suddenly gained two purple eyes appearing under her while she was sitting down by her desk trying to quickly decipher the artifact.
The eyes on Sherry's shadow turned and looked towards her two guards that were tasked to protect her
"What's it look like out there?" Glen, who accompanied Iris and Alexia to meet with sherry previously, asked Marco
Who's Nu's ex-fiance, when she was still a regular girl. "It seems we're under attack the whole school has been hit" Marco replied
"Hmm, with our magic sealed, we can't afford to act rashly" Glen ordered
"Do you think they're after the artifact?" Marco questioned.
"It's hard to say. I know we aren't supposed to let anything distract her but…"
Before Glen could finish speaking Sherry interrupted by yelling "No way! It can't be… If that's true that means…"
Sherry then started scribbling and deciphering the artifact faster at a quicker pass, but before she could be done the window behind her shattered as a man wearing the fake shadow garden outfit appeared by the window.
"WHO GOES THERE!" Marco shouted while looking towards the shattered window.
The man on the window let out a malicious smirk as he said "WE ARE… THE SHADOW GARDEN"
He then started taking off his mask as he said "No wait… or was it something like The shadow Guardians" He then shrugged "Eh, fuck it who gives a shit anyways. The name is Rex, Rex the game of betrayal!"
While that was happening Sherry hid under that table.
'It's just like the manga and everything, oh well better get this over with' Cid thought while looking at everything from Sherry's shadow.
While watching them fight and everything Cid just continued walking a long corridor, while walking leisurely Cid casually just demanded "Come forth and Serve"
Multiple eyes started appearing underneath Cid's shadow, he then ordered "Spread out and accompany the girls that just arrived"
Cid's shadow then shot off into multiple pieces in different directions. He then put a hand on his chin as he pondered, "You know what fuck it, let's be fancy up in this bitch"
Cid snapped his fingers as he just uttered "Monarchs Domain", Cid's shadow then started expanding and surrounding the entire school area unnecessarily boosting his shadow's power.
Every single person in the area looked down on their feet in shock.
"What is this?" A random NPC student asked
"Is this another attack?" the NPC said scarily
"The hell is this? Was there mention of something like this" an NPC cult member said.
"I don't think so? Just what could this be?" Another Cult NPC responded.
Meanwhile as Cid just continues walking the corridor humming ominously, the girls of Shadow Garden were busy killing all the members of the Diabolos Cult that were outside of the Academy guarding it.
Cid then continues to look at Sherry is going through at the moment, she crouched down and was covering her head while Rex looked down on her sadistically about to cut her down.
But before his sword reaches her both Glen and Marco stopped it with their swords "Go! Escape now, we'll stall him to give you enough time" Marco said without taking his eyes off Rex.
As Sherry ran out of the room she closed her eyes and covered her ears to not hear more of the battle going on between Marco, Glen, and Rex.
While running with her eyes closed Sherry somehow managed to exit the building and know where she was going, probably due to her many years in the academy and remembering the layout.
While she was running managed to maneuver around many cult members that weren't yet dead and were about to be attacked.
As they ran towards Sherry, many Shadow Garden members and Shadow Soldiers appeared and started eliminating the cult members, giving Sherry an easy way across even though she doesn't yet realize it.
While running Sherry managed to enter another building that was part of the academy and continue running.
While running, a cult member spotted her and shouted "I just heard someone!"
"Who's there?!" Another cult member shouted.
"They found me!" Sherry yelled out in panic she then leaned against the wall, closed her eyes and crouched down
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! Please don't kill me" Sherry pleaded.
Sherry then took a peek when she noticed nothing was happening and saw that the corridor was empty. She left out a sigh of relief as she happily exclaimed "They left! They must have not really seen me then".
As she started running, the door to a classroom next to her suddenly opened, and as they saw Sherry they yelled out "There's a student over there, get her!"
"Nooooo!" Sherry yelled ducking while covering her head with her tiny arms.
When she peeked once again she saw that just like the other ones they were also gone. She once again let out a sigh of relief, "Thank goodness they still haven't found me!"
As she stood up and was about to start running again she tripped causing her to drop the key to the artifact, which Cid picked up as it landed by his feet.
when she looked up Sherry exclaimed "Cid!" Clearly excited to see him.
When Cid looked at her he just sighed and started patting her, "You really need to watch where you're going"
Sherry just started giggling, feeling warm and ticklish from Cid's head pats. She looked up to Cid and shyly said "I'm glad you're okay"
"I'm more worried about you. You really need to get at sneaking around" Cid said, sounding exasperated.
Sherry then put her fist at the side of her hips and tilted her hips slightly as she said "What are you talking about i was really great no one was able to detect out there"
Sherry then got really embarrassed by her actions and posed she quickly covered her face and started shaking her heads rapidly "Please forget you saw me do that"
Cid's face then got really serious which Sherry saw as she was peeking through her fingers and got nervous and serious herself
"No I can't forget that, that was too adorable" Cid said maintaining the same seriousness.
Which just made Sherry cover her face once again to cover red and flushed face.
"Anyways here" Cid said, handing her back the artifact.
"Oh right! Thank you" Sherry said while bowing her head expressing her gratitude.
She then realized they didn't have enough time to just stand there and start chatting. She grabbed Cid by the hand and started dragging him towards the vice-principal office.
"Come! We don't have a lot of time" she said while running, not yet realizing how intimate her actions are…
A/N: Oink for me you little pigs as I deposit your scraps for you to eat and enjoy 🥱
Anyways enjoy 😉 😌 ☺ 😘

[Third Person's PoV]
As Sherry was dragging Cid along, Cid decided to tease her.
"We're already at the hand holding stage? Take me out to dinner first" Cid said with a teasing smirk.
"What?" Sherry looked at Cid in confusion, while Cid held up their hands that were being held by Sherry with a raised brow.
"Waaah!" Sherry screamed as she tried to disconnect their hands.
But Cid just continued smirking, he interlocked their fingers making Sherry unable to let go.
Sherry's face turned beat red when she noticed Cid's action, steam started coming out from the top of her head.
"Wha- Wha- Wha- What do you think you're doing!" Sherry shouted, flustered beyond belief.
Cid just looked at her in confusion "What does it look like I'm doing? I'm holding your hand"
Sherry then started feeling butterflies in her stomach and assumed the worst "Wha- Wha- What if I become pregnant?! Uh oh I can already feel something in my stomach, is the baby forming?" Sherry panicked "I'm too young to be a mother"
Cid just turned towards Sherry and looked at her in shock 'No way she actually believes that? This is real? I thought it was just an anime trope!'
"What are you talking about? What baby?" Cid asked, in disbelief of what he was hearing.
Sherry then put a hand on her stomach and looked at Cid with watery eyes "I'm having this fuzzy feeling in my stomach, it started ever since we started holding hands. I once asked father were babies come from and he said when a boy and a girl hold hands a baby is born between the union of the two of them"
Cid was really resistant the urge to burst out laughing, he took a hold of their intertwined hand with his other free hand and looked at Sherry in the eyes with a serious expression
He used all his experience he had in acting and said "I promise to take of both you and our unborn child when he arrives"
Sherry looked up at Cid as she softly whispered "Cid-kun…"
Cid couldn't hold it together anymore, that was his breaking point, he started laughing, so much so to the point he had to use the walls as support, while Sherry looked at Cid in confusion.
After catching his breath Cid then explained "He was lying Sherry, he probably said it cause you were small and were too young to actually know about, so to spare you the details he told a white lie. Babies don't come from holding hands"
"Then the fuzzy feeling in my stomach?" She asked as her whole world came crumbling down.
Cid just shook his head "It's call having butterfly in your stomachs"
"THERE'S BUTTERFLY IN MY STOMACHS!" She screamed out in shock.
Cid rolled his eyes and patted her head "No silly, it just an expression, it means your nervous, anxious, or excited,"
"Oh" she said "Then that means I'm not pregnant?" She asked with a tinge of disappointment.
Cid just chuckled and shook his head "No, you're not pregnant"
Sherry then grew really embarrassed, she crouched down and covered her face with her hands wanting to crawl into a hole and never come out of it.
Cid just shook his head again and looked at her in amusement. "Well come on you were taking me somewhere weren't you"
"That's right, the artifact! Come on we have to go quickly" Sherry realized she had more important things to worry about than her own embarrassment, she quickly stood up and started sprinting to the vice Principal's office with Cid following right behind her.
When she entered the office she immediately started looking on the bookshelf for her research papers, while Cid sat down by the couch and waited for her to finish.
"Now where is it?" she softly muttered to herself "Ah! Here it is! My notes!" Sherry exclaimed as she took out a small stack of papers.
"Here take a look, these are some documents from my old research" Sherry said as she started handing it to Cid.
She pointed towards the picture of an eye, and as she was about to explain Cid said what it was "I see… so it's the Eyes of Avarice"
Sherry's eyes went wide "Wait you know of it? Wait that's right you study the ancient languages and history as well, this is perfect"
"Then you know that we must stop it at all cost, if it releases the amount of magic it has stored then the entire school would be blown up"
She then held up the key of the artifact she was carrying "This is the only way to stop it, it was originally designed to fix the eye's effect. It regulates the excess magic it has stored and releases it safely.
If we get to the eye before it explodes, we could use this to stop it but I haven't finished decoding it and I left all my equipment in my lab"
"Let me get it quickly then"
"It's too dangerous you could be hurt"
Cid just gave her a confident smirk. "You've seen a bit of how I fought in the tournament, do you really think I'll be in any danger? Plus I'm really good at being sneaky so no one would really be able to detect me"
Sherry then looked at Cid with tears in her eyes. She reached over and grabbed his hand as she asked "Please… Please promise me you'll come back safe and sound, alright?
Cid just smiled as he patted her head "I promise, alright? You don't have anything to worry about."
Cid then stood up from where he was sitting and walked out, while Sherry held her hands together and prayed "Please stay safe Cid"
As Cid was leisurely walking towards her office he soon encountered Rex with a bunch of his goons surrounding surveying the area.
When they saw Cid, Rex made a sadistic expression, "oh lookie here, if it isn't a wandering student. You must have some real shit luck if you ran into us."
But Cid didn't pay him any attention, he just continued walking as if they didn't exist.
Rex then scrowled "Who the hell do you think your ignoring, you fucker. What are you too scared to talk"
But Cid just kept walking with his Hands in pockets and walked past them.
Rex turned around and put a hand on Cid's shoulder "Where the hell do you think you're-" before Rex could finish and as soon as he put a hand on Cid's shoulder, he alongside his goons combusted into black flames making them scream out in agony.
"ARGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
But once again Cid just continued walking without stopping as the figures behind him turned into ashes scattering in the wind…
