Early in the morning, Rei was holding Killer’s head for some reason as she stared at the girls who did not gain immunity. Killer was doing nothing and remained comfortable in Rei’s arms while the magician sometimes had to look at her to make sure.

“After some consideration, blocking trolls, and tallying up, one of you girls will be off the challenges but at least not the show,” Rei said.

“Not that I’m afraid,” Eriza said.

“Oh shut up,” Rei said. “Now… the girl who will be voted out is… Rosa!”

“What?” Rosa said as she looked disappointed.

“Oh thank god not me!” Jeanne said as she was panicking.

“Most people find just shooting a laser boring. Even if the practical stuff you did on the side can look impressive,” Rei said.

“Hah! Suck it,” Eriza said.

“Don’t be so prideful,” Rei said. “You were close to being voted off too!”

“Hmph! There are some people out there who have poor taste,” Eriza said.

“Before I give you my head, can I at least be Pretty Pink?” Rosa asked.

“Sure,” Rei said. “I’ll even take care of your cat friend too.”

“Thank you,” Rosa said before she changed into her magical girl form. “I’m… ready.”

Setting Killer’s head on a table, Rei held her wand and pointed at Pretty Pink. In a flash, the contestant disappeared with her head now on the shelf where Jeanne and Killer used to sleep in. The head looked shocked and sat there in shame.

“You did your best Pretty Pink,” Rei said before looking at Eriza. “At least better than certain girls.”

Eriza raised an eyebrow and said. “And?”

“Also…” Rei said and she went to the halls and poofed up a door where Rosa’s toy house was. “Killer and Jeanne will finally have their own bedrooms thanks to me.”

“We could have had free rooms?” Jeanne asked.

“Now you do,” Rei said. “I only made you girls make your own rooms as a test and well… we got extra room. You two would need to share though.”

“I shall be a thoughtful roommate,” Killer said.

“Well um… at least we don’t have to sleep on the shelf again,” Jeanne said.

“Oh ha ha! Look at the hero of justice being just a pitiful head,” Eriza said as she wanted to mock Pretty Pink. The disembodied heroine looked though she wanted to tear up.

“Hey! Back off!” Noel said.

“Or what? She’s a loser and beneath us,” Eriza said.

“I know back where you are from, you treat losing nations this way. But this is a random person who does not need you to mock her!” Noel said.

“And what can a beginner mage like you do about it?” Eriza said as she clearly did not care.

Noel was fuming at the dragon girl and said. “Ever since I came here, you have been nothing but a… a bitch! I swear! I will win this not only for my credibility but to avenge Rosa… I mean Pretty Pink!”

“Noel…” Pretty Pink said. “I should’ve been the hero.”

“Oi! Remember! Don’t f*ck with my heads! That includes her!” Rei said.

“Hmph!” Eriza said. “Just for you to know, I am willing to bow down to Rei or any of you if I were to lose. Which is unlikely! Ah hah hah hah!”

“Now that’s out of the way, I got a trip to prepare for ANGA,” Rei said.

“What?” the girls asked.

“Yeah. Invited as a guess. We may also have the show on hiatus, but who knows. I’ll give you girls the prompt for the next challenge as well. That would be… a duo challenge!” Rei said. “A pair of you will have to perform for me to work on your teamwork skills. Pairs will be decided in an upcoming mini challenge as well.”

“I would need to work with someone?” Eriza said. “They better not weigh me down.”

Noel glared at Eriza and then looked at Jeanne. “I hope I can be with her instead. I’ll take Killer if I have to.”

“Oh oh,” Jeanne said as she looked nervous.

“As you wish,” Killer said.

“Good! For now, just think about what to do and take care of Luna while I’m gone,” Rei said. “Also don’t bully Pretty Pink too far. Some light teasing will do since well… losing is meant to be a punishment. Just don’t be like Eriza.”

“Hey!” Eriza said.

“Now, I’ll be off to give Killer that spa treatment that I promised her,” Rei said.

…

Downstairs, Rei set Killer’s head on a table for her spa treatment. Well, as best Rei can provide in a backroom filled with more heads and boxes. Killer looked around and remained composed as usual.

“What will it be besides my death?” Rei asked.

“I’ll take anything you can provide. I’m not good at making personal decisions like this well,” Killer said.

“Right…” Rei said. “I often start with a wash.”

“I suggest you make my hair remain slick and smooth, please. It makes me look cool for my employers,” Killer said.

“Okie dokie!” Rei said as she placed Killer in a tub and sprayed her hair with water.

“I hate to admit this but you are by far the most difficult target I faced,” Killer said. “You tested my patience as well as my employers.”

“Oh, did they call you on it?” Rei asked.

“Yes. They felt lied to and threatened to release my real name to the public if I do not kill you soon,” Killer said.

“Wow, didn’t think you would be willing to tell me all of this,” Rei said.

“That is not classified information nor did they agree that it is classified,” Killer said. “A rub on the right and move my bangs to the side more, please.”

“Sure thing,” Rei said. “I must admit that you are pretty polite. Are you perhaps opening up to me?”

“I have to be a professional when conducting business,” Killer said. “I do admit in respecting you a bit more and are not the monster that I viewed for years.”

“Gee, thanks,” Rei said.

“I do find it weird that Jerome is filming us though,” Killer said. “Not that I mind.”

“When’s the spa part happening?” Jerome asked.

“In a bit!” Rei said as she dried off Killer and placed her on the table. The magician then gave Killer a massage of her face and every moving muscle that a head has.

“Hmm… I must admit that your services are satisfactory,” Killer said. “It is a shame that it will be gone.”

“How about I make you this deal, if you don’t kill me, you can have all the spa treatment as you wish for free?” Rei said. “I don’t often give things for free! Please take the offer.”

“Hmm… you do raise a big offer that is hard to refuse,” Killer said. “My contract did say that I have the right to refuse if someone offered me a better deal.”

“Yes, yes,” Rei said.

“I need some time to think about it if your service can amaze me further,” Killer said.

“I can totally amaze you further!” Rei said as she kept on massaging.

“A little to the neck,” Killer said. “I do love a nice touch at the stump.”

Rei stroked the neck stump and went back to the face occasionally. Killer was left distracted and relaxed as she felt more refreshed than usual. Rei was about to touch the nose, but stopped for a moment. Killer saw the finger and winced at the sight.

“Kiyah!” Killer said.

“Whoa!” Rei said. “Sorry. I just remember that your…”

“Excuse me. Please continue,” Killer said.

“You sure I can touch your nose,” Rei said. “I assume that you rather not have me touch it.”

Killer, for once, looked scared and sad as she said. “You don’t plan on doing that again, are you?”

“No. Do you trust me? I’m trusting you to not kill me,” Rei said.

“You are right. I must trust you and not betray your trust,” Killer said.

“Okay then,” Rei said as she rubbed Killer’s nose.

Killer had one eye closed and the other to keep an eye on Rei. The bounty hunter calmed down a bit and just let Rei do her job. Rei looked relieved that Killer’s suspicion was lessened as she then went to the next treatment which is a facial. Rei slapped some face mask onto Killer and some cucumbers onto Killer’s eyes.

“Just rest here,” Rei said as she placed Killer on a shelf.

“As you say,” Killer said.

“So um… that offer?” Rei asked.

“I shall spare you for now if you are willing to offer me this when I desire,” Killer said. “For how long is uncertain. Perhaps much longer if I win.”

“You got to earn the title to be my assistant,” Rei said.

“Fair enough,” Killer said. “I shall do my best to get more from our deal. I do hope you can keep yours.”

“Phew,” Rei said.

“But watch your back. My employers could be watching or perhaps do something about me,” Killer said.

“Yikes,” Rei said as she couldn't believe that it was not truly over.

…

“Argh! My nose itches!” Pretty Pink cried.

“There you go,” Noel said as she rubbed Pretty Pink’s nose.

“Ah… much better,” Pretty Pink said. “Thank you so much for caring for me.”

“It’s the least I can do,” Noel said. “I just could not stand that demon. She really crossed the line this time.”

“You were at least serious about avenging me, right?” Pretty Pink asked.

“Kind of,” Noel said. “I admit that I acted on impulse with the need to do something about this.”

“I hope you win then. Maybe Jeanne too but anyone but Eriza,” Pretty Pink said.

“Anyone but Eriza will do at this point,” Noel said. “If only more people applied for NSA, Rei would have gotten more people to choose from that won’t kill her.”

“You know, I do find it suspicious that this is a thing at all,” Pretty Pink said. “You would think that if word got out, the producers would be arrested right?”

“I think so too,” Jerome said as he was still recording them.

“Oh right… we’re being recorded,” Noel said.

“I’m interested in solving this mystery too,” Jerome said. “Like this entire show seems sus.”

“I guess I got something else in mind as well,” Noel said. “I don’t think Rei is a bad person but she’s in a bad spot.”

…

“Another questionnaire with all of us. Well Pretty Pink is still here, just below us,” Rei said.

“This is so embarrassing,” Pretty Pink said.

“Ha ha!” Eriza said.

“Oh shut it you,” Rei said.

Genie Schutter: Hi Rei. I wanted to thank you for inviting me to be a judge on your show. I had a lot of fun, and it was good to see both Ophelia, and Luna again.

“No problem girl!” Rei said.

“Me too!” Luna said.

“Wait, what’s your history with her?” Rei asked.

“Kind of ran into her after the accident that made me and Kate lose our heads,” Luna said. “They helped us out and gave us the head detachment powers you see today!”

“Oh,” Rei said.

“I wouldn’t call that a power, child,” Eriza said.

“It is to me!” Luna said.

Genie Schutter to Jeanne: Hey Jeanne, I wanted to express my appreciation for your music and magic. You did really well. Keep working hard and build up your confidence, and you'll do fine. Also tell your dad not to try feeding on me or one from my country, one of his men almost got himself killed doing that, It only turned him human fortunately enough, but he could have exploded into flames. Its a fifty/fifty shot as to which way it will go, as our blood is toxic when unrefined into a serum. I told his other man about that but I don't know if he got the message.

“Oh um… thank you,” Jeanne said. “I promise to do better.”

“I hope so too,” Noel said.

“I feel the same,” Killer said.

“Oh thank you girls,” Jeanne said. “And about those men… my papá is probably finding a way to overcome this. I have no idea how, but he always finds a way.”

“That’s… odd,” Noel said.

“My family is weird,” Jeanne said.

From Tigerman2011: *pant* alright, barely got out of that situation with that damn vampire. Lifted a train to ram as a distraction and got the f*** out of there, but I doubt that did anything to him other than annoy him. Saw a human Senator got sent flying at me while that happened, not sure if it was the explosion or him just throwing that guy at me while I ran away, but oh well.

Rei, I see you casted a human illusion on me so I can see the show live, I appear to have a human face and hands as well as my wings being used as a cape to sell it, although my size is still an issue. Then again, I know f*** all about magic, so I guess I owe you something.

“You’ll only delay the inevitable unless you are really that smart,” Jeanne said sadly.

“Human illusion? I did no such thing. I just made sure Jerome did not spot you,” Rei said. “As for the thing you think is a human illusion, that’s actually a leftover mask from the abandoned theater. Placebo effect I think got you.”

“There was a demon around?” Jerome asked.

“Not now!” Rei said.
