It was a beautiful day, winter without snow, the birds on the tree were clapping and singing. The sun has just risen to the sky shining on the base of COMSUBIN. Inside, there was the room that colonnello slept in peacefully until the clock rang "tiriririririririririn!" (Seriously how annoying!)
Colonnello suddenly woke up of his sleep, confused, trying to shut that noise. After when he finally did he looked at the time that the clock showed. It was five O'clock. He wanted to ignore today's training and go back to sleep, but then he realized that if he did, lal will wipe his ass off so, he just had to get out of bed. In a lazy way, he got off his warm bed while yawning and stretching out his hands.
After a short while he was done. Showering and wearing his green army clothes along with his favorite camouflage bandanna all in thirty minutes.
He rushed out of his room, biting out a piece of bread on his way to the training grounds where the other trainees were assembled. When he finally arrived, it was already six O'clock. He noticed some students on a verge of crying because of lal's torture. Lal mirch sat under a tree far enough not to be able to get seen by the trainees, yet Colonnello caught her place easily. She did nothing on there, only kept watching them suffer with a faint smile, wanting to laugh the hell out of her on how lame they looked like, and of course she forced herself not to.
Colonnello was a whole hour late. Even if it was only a minute Lal would beat the crap out of him.
-Colonnello's POV-
The trainees are taking a break now. Lal of course didn't give them such a thing. They simply fell out of exhaustion after completing one hundred set-ups, thought it was nothing much for Lal.
Right now, she didn't yet notice my coming, so I snuck up behind the tree that she is lying under. Desiring to see her frightened face even for once! I happen to be carrying a bottle of water with me. (Yes. I'm pretty sure you have an idea on what he's about to do.) I just wanted to scare her by faking that I will splash her with the bottle of water. (Knowing that he would be beaten to death but it was his only chance seeing lal off gourd.) Just when I was about to move, I heard lal shouting at me without glancing at me. I then realized I was a dead meat!
-Lal's POV-
I noticed someone sneaking up from behind me. It is Colonnello. I'm able to determine surly about that thanks to his obvious shadow lying beside me, showing his messed up hair shadow. I noticed in his right hand carrying a bottle of water. Don't tell me he's trying to splash me with it?
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING COLONNELLO?" I yelled with top of my lungs. It isn't in an angry tone, just with a hint of annoyance.
-Colonnello's pov-
"damn it, you noticed! aah~ when I thought that I could scare you once , kora!" oh, Crap! I said it! She'll skin me alive!
"What did you say?" Ehehe I'm dead.
"Did you think that I would get scared if you did that?" She said it with a daring tone.
"Ya? kora!" Wow. She doesn't look like she was in a mood to wipe some ass's which is weird? She just left!
"Hmph, are you daring me?,kora!" I said in a low voice.
I followed up behind, and this time I opened the lid. Finally, I reached her, and splashed the whole thing on her! Yet, I only managed to throw half of the water. I even then laid my arms on her flat shoulders, so she wouldn't resist. She tries to remove my arms but only managed to remove my left arm, then I laid it on her head trying to pure the other half of the water! I continued laughing out loud, while she was boiling with frustration, surprised and slightly embarrassed! How cute~
"You dared me right? kora!"
"..." She got silent for a few seconds knowing this usually happens before hell comes out of her. Water dripping down offs her hair. She grabs my arm and took the bottle out of my hands. Tripping me with her foot making me roll to the ground this says I should pray before my death. With all her might she splashed the rest of the remaining water all over my body. It feels so cold.
-Author's POV-
"..." Colonnello went to silent mode suddenly. His clothes are soaking wet, and finally, he blasted out of laughter. Lal Mirch gave him a smirk.
"Heh! You're all wet, kora!" He said it with a grin, daring to push it further.
"And soon, you'll be dead" She raised a clutched fist.
His execution is near Colonnello thought, so he told himself to just enjoy the moment before his death.
One of the students approached the two. He claims to have taken a picture of them, acting as Colonnello's ally. It looks like Colonnello's prayers worked!
The student ran off to the soon-to-be-corpse, Colonnello, showing the picture he just took through his mobile, Colonnello then formed a toothy grin. He picked the mobile out of supporter's hands while looking at the picture with a big evil smile with eyes darted on Lal. She just looked at them with confusion.
"what picture?" She said
"hehee~ kora!" he chuckled lightly.
"thanks Toshiro you saved my ass! kora!" still eyes locked at Lal.
"No problem. we aren't friends just for nothing" he smiled with exact Colonnello's evil smile. Lal on the other hand grew impatient like she always been.
"show it to me to now maggot!" an she commands
"now, now, don't yell at him Lal-" he was cut by Lal shouting again
"how many times do I have to tell it's commander mirch"
"okay, okay, commander, are you sure you want to see it~? kora!"
"I wouldn't ask if-" Lal stops her yelling after colonnello shows her the picture. In that, She saw herself embarrassed with colonnello's arm lying on her shoulder while the other messing up with her hair, and looking so soaked with water despite on what she was in fact he was laughing.
"Wha!.. when did you?... You little-" She stops when she realizes colonnello's smiles don't seem normal to her.
"Hay! Wha- what's with the look?"
"So, lal, er- commander mirch, hmm, can we cancel today's training, and just relax? Kora!" He said it while taking cover quickly behind toshiro.
"and what makes you think that'll just easily do that?"
she ordered him to erase the picture right away, BUT NO WAY he'll let his chance slip away! Colonnello shrugged then swiftly ran away for his life, lugging the cellphone with him.
"stop loping around!" She cried out, still tailing him.
"I don't want to die yet! kora!"
"the picture.. you want it right? Kora!"
He knew how lal would be thinking that it would make her look weak If anybody saw that secret snapped picture of Lal mirch. She has always been so cautious about stuff like that, though nobody considers the same way as she does.
-Lal's POV-
Damn that colonnello it's his entire fault! NO, NO, it's that bundle of shit over there! Also known as toshiro I have heard. He, who took the picture in the first place! HE IS SO DEAD! I'll rip that guts of his! No, That would be too nice. I'll simply skin him alive! YA, that would do!
"HAHAHA!" It was almost an evil laugh, with darted eyes on the newbie.
"hay, Colonnello! how about this? I'll do for you shit heads whatever you want but-" I was cut by him saying.
"Whoa! No way! Kora!" I gave him a questioning.
"..." We were both silent for few seconds, Colonnello was waiting for his brain to function properly to register the situation. Toshiro knew that he should be going back to his intense training and so he said "good luck!" After leaving even giggling like a high school girl when staring at colonnello on how dumbfounded he looked like.
-Author's POV-
"And as I was saying, I'll do whatever in exchange for that picture or, is it too hard for your brain to operate on all that?" She sneered in a light of sarcasm, thought she is always on sarcasm mode.
"Man, don't be such a meanie! Frankly, it's too hard to state what precisely I want, Kora!"
He finally utters and says.
"don't regret it later. Kora!"
"so what it is it that you want?" She forced an unpleasant smile.
"…"
"SO?" She said lifting an eyebrow. I recognized that he still needs to think about it
"ahhh! No need to tell me anymore!"I yelled.
"Okay, okay, At how about we go to a coffee shop nearby, don't worry I won't make you wear a dress-"
"WHO SAID THAT I'LL WEAR A DRESS?"
"trust me no one did! thought-everyone-wants-you-to. Wearing your uniform is fine! Kora! and You don't want to go cuz' you're only embarrassed, right~? kora!" he said it with a half grin.
"Don't forget about the picture~ kora!"And he threats.
"Okay, fine! just shut the hell up, you're really annoying! also if you tell a single living human about this blame only yourself."
"well, at when-"
"after I'm done with paperwork, that means after six o'clock, but before that do five hundred push-ups!"
"yes, yes, and can I call you there by your name, lal?-"
"FIRST you just said it second it's commander lal to you and third of all.. Did you really think that I'll be nice after what happened?"
"No, kora!"
"...and... " Rolling his eyes everywhere except looking directly to lal.
"do I really have to do five hun-"
"do it now!" I aimed my rifle at him ready to fire.
"god, so harsh, kora!" He dropped down to give a full five hundred pushups, and soon in the middle he arose out on the ground then she heard his cellphone started dialing numbers.
'Click','click'
"takashi, toshi, yama, hitomi and send-" He stopped right after he heard lal's yelling.
"hey! listen up maggots!" Every trainee turned around facing her with fear.
"tody's training is! ..Canceled." she said the last part as if she wanted to rip someone's head off and surly it would be colonnello's.
The students are confused. They kept staring at each other with mixed up expressions from gladness and uncertainty, they knew something might have hit Lal's head. Her majesty would never miss a day of torture. Later they noticed colonnello confidence lasting longer than usual, standing beside her with plastered smile.
Some were crying, and some were kissing Colonnello's feet, tears of joy drifted down on everyone's cheeks! Oh, how much Lal Mirch craved to punch Colonnello as a sand bag.
After leaving the training grounds someone shouted.
"READY FOR A PARTY!" One of the students said.
"YES!"They all agreed.
"This is not a camp you know." Lal muttered, Colonnello overheard her complaint yet continued acting as if he didn't. Finally Lal went to her work.
-Author's POV/4:30-
Lal mirch is doing her paperwork so, she hasn't finished yet (well obviously) Colonnello on the other hand is asleep most of the time. Thankfully he just woke up out of dreamland. Then he went to the bathroom and took a shower.
-4:45-
After he was done with showering he got dressed wearing a white T-shirt, a black leather jacket with Lots of pockets everywhere and black jeans it had two big pockets on the right knee and one on the other, also, with a white scarf that covered his neck and mouth, his favorite bandanna clutched around his head around his forehead.
He was planning on what to do next since there was plenty of time left, and so he thought.
"I'll go bother lal with her work, kora!"
On his way to Lal's office he passed a group of his friend's in the hallway whispering, as if someone had just died, they looked annoyingly cautious since it made it harder for me to eavesdrop. Toshiro is among them, he walked up to them wanting to know what the hell happened to them and so they noticed his coming. They bumped into him. Every single one asking him questions one on another, he got confused and didn't understand a single word that they spout, and they are all over him like ants. One said. "SO YOUR RE" and another said "you're really gonna-" and other said "NO WAY! YOU-" the only one who wasn't questioning him is toshiro. He is standing right where he was, looking at colonnello with a dubious smile. His hair is shadowing around his eyes, his clothes are the same as Colonnello's army clothes except that the jacket was buttoned on.
-Colonnello's POV-
"EVERYONE! JUST SHUT THE HELL UP!"I shouted with all my might and they all froze with glares.
"PLEASE! TALK ONE AT A TIME! Now, you hashirama, what were you saying?" I looked at him waiting for his reply.
"Are really gonna go out with our leader lal mirch?" And he said with bugged eyes. I froze in my place looking blankly at him.
"ya! ya! Toshiro told us what happened!"
"Oh, joy, What more.. did he... tell you?, ..kora."
"Well, he told us what happened so Lal would actually go with you, and what happened in the training grounds, mmm, and then you told her and she accepted." So, toshiro didn't tell them about the picture He knew if he told them about it they will know that she wasn't really her intention to come.
"That's not the full story! kora!" damn, If lal knew that they are now aware of the picture story lal will hang my head off! even thinking that I haven't kept our promise.
"Actually, she didn't agree right away, you see, toshiro, took a picture of us after what happened with the splashing and stuff so, when she knew about it, I took advantage of it, kora!"
"And don't get your hopes up, sadly we're just going to a coffee shop. Kora!"
"hinn~ no wonder she would go."
"yeah, and if she knew that someone already knows about this, I swear I wouldn't see tomorrow. Kora!"
"and no way you're gonna find another chance."
"you'll live the rest of your life as hell, as if we're not already in."
"Thank you, captain obvious, kora! There for, YOU SHELL ALL SHUT YOUR MOUTHS!" I shouted, pointing my finger at them "YES SIR!" they somehow randomly made a salute.
"AND COLONNELLO THANK YOU FOR WHAT HAPPENED TODAY!" They all said at once. I went to Toshiro's direction wanting to rip his guts off.
"Toshi, If you hadn't help that time you would've been dead, kora!" I said, then left them.
-Author's POV-
Colonnello is finally on Lal's doorstep. He reached the doorknob and opened the door slowly, hoping she wouldn't notice. (he just wanted to see what's she's doing) He peaked through the small hole that he made. The scene was unexpected. Lal Mirch was actually asleep. Her office is big, there were small plants in almost every corner, there was a huge window behind her desk curtains attached to it that covered the bright sun light. Mountains of paperwork were laid everywhere on the floor and around her desk, but it was all arranged perfectly. It seemed that it was already done with whatever work it had. Her desk is brown colored, there is two small squared tables placed in front of it with two chairs.
-Colonnello's POV-
NO WAY SHE'S ASLEEP! This is a rare scene, it's one of Lal's RARE SCENES (and they are acting as a real lady, eating and being kind.)
AND, AND …Keep yourself calm colonnello! There's no use of panicking! Kora! But's! ...what should I do? Kora. Should I leave? Or should I wake her up? … why would I do that? She's going to beat the crap out of me! Kora! OH! I KNOW! I'm gonna draw on her face~ kora! Lal, that's a payback to what you have done to me before, when you drew on MY face so many times, Kora! I took a thick black pen out of her pencil stand. Her head is laid on her arms atop the desk, silky blue hair slipped on her face,the Papers everywhere around her, it was messy and didn't look like it has been done with work yet. There is at least twenty different pens on her desk. Just when I was about to draw my cellphone suddenly rang. Crap, I bet it's a divine punishment kora! My ring tone started increasing in volume. And 'BAAM!' I hit my leg on the desk. OUCH IT REALLY HURTS! Oh, shit what should I do? I pressed the busy button.
"Damn you toshiro, why the hell are you calling me at a time like this? Kora!" I said it with the lowest voice that I could manage. UH, He is calling me again I ran toward door and I threw my phone down the aisle, the throw was so strong that made it fall way too far from me.
"Opps, Kora!"
-Author's POV-
Lal peered up from the table.
"Tch, god, colonnello, what are you doing?" She growled as the Blonde appeared in the doorway, while noticing a pen in hand.
"I hope you weren't attending to do something stupid?" She muttered.
"Aha-ha.. why would I do that?" and after a long time deep in thought "HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Kora!" He only managed to say.
"Happy birthday my ass." Colonnello didn't know but, after Lal Mirch awakens from her long-rare-Innocent-looking-but-really-not-sleep her mood becomes just like a pissed off angry lion, it's not like she wasn't before though.
"I gave enough time for you just not to hear some of your stupid excuses."
"yeah, I noticed that, but I tried kora!" this time Lal really wants to Choke colonnello yet, miraculously she didn't want to argue about it, so she only said.
"What the hell do want? I'm busy." He struggled in holding back his reply.
"what do you mean by busy? Weren't asleep? kora!" he chuckled lightly.
"s-shut up!" She said yelling at him.
"you know, as your commander I have a load of shit to do!" Colonnello turned around looking at all the paperwork that has been done with.
"yeah, about that, you sure look like you need some help in all that, kora!" he then laughed with a sweat drop.
"Thank you."
"so, do you need any of my help? kora!" He sat on the right chair, his head laying atop of his hand. He kept staring at her.
"..." She didn't really know what to reply either with a slap or a her usual yell, and so she ignored, hoping he will leave miraculously. She opened the pen's led to start with her work but knowing Colonnello's nature of stubbornness.
"are going to do your work without enough light? kora!" He said. Still with his gaze focused on her, Lal Mirch was even more stubborn, she continued ignoring him.
"Well do you want me to turn the lights on for you? kora!"
"On your way out, yes, please!" She said it while doing her work.
"You really want me out huh? Kora!"
"Oh, Sorry I thought that it was already obvious." Expressionless as ever she was.
"OK, kora!" He says as he gets up. The switch is beside the door, considering the room was big enough which would make it hard to notice him afar, so he switched it on and opened the door and closed it. Lal is too focused on her work and thought he was long gone. She didn't even bother to look up and confirm, but she didn't hear anything. Yet, Colonnello kept his presence unnoticed and his arms folded around his chest he just kept staring and smiling.
-Colonnello's POV-
It's been two minutes that's a new record!
"Ahhhh~ AH! Why the hell do I always have to deal with this crap in every single day?" She complained.
"This is so tiring…"
"can't anybody else do that?"
-Author's POV-
She raised her arms holding the papers that annoyed her. When She was about to turn her gaze toward the ceiling in her half way of lifting she saw Colonnello nearly going to die out of laughter.
"UH!" Lal accidently scattered the papers everywhere, her hands still floating in the air from the shock.
"ARE TRYING TO GIVE ME A HEART ATTACK?" She shouted at him
"HAHAHAHAHAA! why would want to do that? Kora!" While removing a tear from his eyes.
"Sorry, kora I couldn't help it aha-ha!"
