Chapter Text
Life wasn't easy for a 16 year old school girl, Egamo Shikabane idlely thinks to herself, her pale white index finger pointlessly fiddling with her hair, Looking longingly out of the window with her pure black eyes, a bit creepy, sure, but beautiful nonetheless.
Constantly worrying for exams, worrying about the choice of her clothes(Even though everyone in this school wears a suit and only difference between boys and girls uniform is a skirt which is already a bit weird), worrying about anything that might happen today(Like Michagai san cutting a new window for the class because she wants some fresh air), Worrying about will there be enough food in the cafeteria for her(That fairy bitch is always faster than her and finishes all the food she wants to eat), Worrying about the after class Activities with her "friends"( Like beating up that blue fucker Red chan hates so much, That was always fun, Running away from Gebura sensei was not so much though...).
so much stress every day, every month and every year, is a wonder that her silky black hair didn't turn gray... Which she will be very mad about because she spend a lot of time taking care of her hair so they don't get greasy or leaks any liquid... oh look, That boring old cherry blossom tree is flourishing again, wonder what happened... And there's better something left after that big dry log is done. She is so hungry for a snack she can go and try to dig for it...but...better not, five second rule and all.
"Is there something you like to share with the class about outside the window, miss Shikabane? " Says the old man that is smiling at her, His white suits spotless, his gray tie elegant, His tone barely agitated but still frightening to hear.
Those green eyes is staring into her soul.
Quickly returning her attention to the class and sitting upright Instead of all lazy like, those words almost shoots out of her mouth, she hope she wasn't too loud..."N-nothing, Hokma sensei!"
"then you will very much be ready for this question, isn't it? Miss Shikabane?" He says, still smiling. His hand, holding a chalk, points to the questions on the blackboard, but she cannot understand any of it because she haven't listened and those are maths with letters in it... Who's the genius that tries to stick a letter into a perfectly fine number equation?
"... No, sensei.."
" It's okay, Please pay attention to the class and do not look out the window again for the duration of this lecture, if this mistake happens again, I will be doubling your homework. Is that okay?" That smile is so honest that you can mistake it as a smile of a saint.
"Thank you sensei!" and he is anything but a saint...Thank god, the gray hair devil is merciful today... Double math homework, she might actually try to kill herself if that happens...
Not like she will die, But it's pretty stress relieving, Not sure why or how it works though... Agitated the hell out of that butterfly the first few time it happened, He doesn't bother that much about it nowadays.
Thinking to herself, she stares at the black board and just started to daydream away.
.... That cloud looks like her hair clip.
" I thought you are going home, don't you have your double math homework form hokma?" says Michagai san, the tip of her big bat hiding under those long messy red hair, a few strain of it are discolored and unnatural, from all those failed hair dyeing attempts she and Red tried.
If you rememberd right, those attempts cost her the title of The big red bitch of the school, but the current red Is holding the title nicely so none of you really cared.
Smiling inwardly to yourself, those are good memories, and you are going to make a good memory today.
" And missing out on punching the shit out of that blue asshat? pass." Says you, with a big smile on your face.
"Yeah i though you won't." That's the one who organized this so called "hunt", Fudoma Akari, Appearing behind the shadows of Michagai san, You didn't notice her, Which is strange, but you guess this alleyway is a little too dark anyway."Not with something good right in front of your nose."
Hiding under that Red hood of hers, Her yellow eyes shining brightly, still pretty cool of her to give Michagai san and Shikabane a reason to beat her brother without holding that much back, that is what friends for, right?
not like she need a excuse to beat him up, but if she can get one, then she will have one.
"Don't be rude~ I'm not your Mr.Wolfy, but I want my payment upfront though... I'm sacrificing a lot of my free time you know? A few new restaurant opened at the edge of town and I'm really behind schedule on having a taste." A devilish grin appears on Shikabanes face. she walk a few steps forward towards Red, and right up to her face.
Licking her lips, Shikabane imagine ways to rip open Red's throat and drink her blood.
"..." Her eyes narrowed, staring at this glutton.
"give her the stuff." Putting her hand between Shikabane and Red's face, Michagai san calmly stares at Shikabane, showing nothing with her unmoving face.
"...fine, but I will be withholding the coupons until you finish the job." Says red chan, grabbing her bag from behind the air conditioning unit, outside of Shikabanes point of view.
Smart move honestly, Shikabane can't really control herself when it involves that.
Unziping it and taking out the black plastic bag, Red stares at her, Then throws the bag at the hungry girl.
Humming to herself, she opens the bag, Michagai san walk towards her, taking a look at what's inside.
"You actually found that one I requested!" The only black hair girl out of the three says happily, Taking out the contents of the bag.
It's a human hand, unprofessionally chopped off, A little bit of bone connected by some strings of flesh dangles down, blood dripping down Into the bag.
"And I can't believe you even remembered that! I thought your memory space is at most one week! thank you Red chan!"
The smiling girl happily grabbed the piece of flesh, and bites off a finger.
Crunch
" Oh, such Delight! hey Michagai san! do you think that boy can grow it back? "
"finish your food." No longer interested in the content, Michagai san sits down on the air conditioning unit, clearly bored.
" I hope so too~ I will want more you know!..." Sitting down right beside her, Shikabane is chewing all those fingers and taking a bite out of the palm, happily eating every single last bit of flesh on it.
A person walks by the alleyway. Looked around a bit, then walked in.
" What are you idiots planning this time... And why are you feeding Shikabane san human flesh? You know she gets a blood rush after it." Ah, there he is. with clearly a annoyed tone, he walks into the alleyway, his deep crimson hair is the most noticeable thing about him, other than his clearly more gorgeous uniform.
The vampire.
" Shut up, tic. I asked you to be here because I want some extra hands, not because I want to get bothered by useless questions" says red, a bit of anger in her eyes.
" Oh, of course, I'm just not gonna ask that my friends are going to kill someone, especially her brother, today. what do you want, fudoma?" Pinching his nose, the boy puts down his expensive schoolbag.
" So you do know why we are planning to do, I thought you are a idiot like us now...how sad." Says Red, every single one in the alleyway can feel the smirk on that hood.
" I'm here to look after you, you fuck, to make sure you don't kill your brother and get yourself killed by your grandma. and don't dodge the question, you asked me to be here, why? " He crosses his arms, the red jewelry piece that replaces his tie shining nicely under the afternoon sun, his crimson eyes filled with frustration." I thought I made it clear. I don't want to join you guys for this kind of activity."
"Relax, you're not gonna dirty your hands, pretty boy." Grabbing a pack of cigarettes out of Michagai san's pocket, Red lights one and continued speaking "You're here to pick him up and bring him home after we are done, or else he just gonna run towards the house of that dog."
"...sigh, so that's why" Relaxing his posture, the pale boy looks at his watch, It's almost 16:30. "Then we are not waiting for the wolf, let's get this done quick so Shikabane san have time to go home and do homework, I have my bats to feed and Gebura sensei is going to kill Michagai san if she goes home late again."
A cigarette butt falls to the ground,and a boot steps on it.
" Figures, the bastard is always late... I don't have his number, text him." Releasing a puff of smoke, red crouched down and starts grabbing masks out of her bag.
red chan is bit mad about it...Shikabane thinks Is honestly better for the two to not meet each other, or the both is gonna start fighting each other for the next three hours or so.
"you two done?" says Michagai san.
"Yes, I'm wondering the same." Shikabane adds, chewing the last few finger bones.
" I was waiting for you to finish your food, but I guess we can start now... Send me the location when you lots are done. I'm going to that cafe."
"See ya later Kyuki san!"
"Goodbye." Michagai san add
"I told you to call me... Nevermind, I'm going. See you guys tomorrow." Picking up his bag, Kyuki leaves the back alley.
"annoying fuck...." Muttering to herself, Red throws the masks at both of them.
"He's just worried." Easily catching the two unspecial mask, Michagai san hands Shikabane one, who takes it with a smile.
" I know, that's why he's annoying. "
"hmm~ Talking about him at his back is impolite. You know? " not like Shikabane ever knows what is polite anyway.
" I would say he is annoying to his face. Shut up."
" Leave now? " says Michagai san.
Taking out her phone and checking the time, red sits down on a box that was somehow there "There is still half an hour for his club. Pretentious fucker joined art club because dog is there."
"hmm."
"Still bullying the only one who puts up with him hmm...Oh well~ You should stop calling him dog though." Snuggling closer to her favorite, Shikabane smiles, Her head resting on the shoulder of Michagai.
" I call that fuck whatever I want... So are you taking your knife or not? " She looks over to Michagai.
" bat is good enough. "
" hmm? Where is my weapon? "
" You can bleed black acid, chew your own fucking arm open for all I care. "
"fineeee.... You definitely care, though "
" I said shut up. " Retreats deeper into her hood, Her hand, wearing those old gloves her grandma gaved her, pulls the hood down to hide her eyes.
"love you too~" says Shikabane, the ever present smile on her face.
"love you too." Michagai san says, unblinking
" Ah, that's so sweet Michagai san! Thank you! " Shikabane wraps her arms around Michagai and getting even closer to her. She almost can smell the bare flesh underneath those clothes.... Such a treat.... She used to let her bite of a piece of it, not anymore, because apparently, normal people doesn't do that.
Which is dumb and stupid and not cool!
"hmm."
After a while, the three of you exits the Alley way, only a few broken bones left behind.
" Remember, Crippling is fine, just don't beat him to death, Egamo."
"ok! "
"got it."
Oh, this would be such a good memory.
