CHAPTER SIX
Conversation under the tree
Meep_ Meep_ Meep.
Those were the sounds Asuka awaken to. At first, she couldn`t understand as to where she was at. She glanced around herself, and became more aware of her surrounding, recognizing the location.
She was at a hospital.
Grunting, Asuka seated up pulling her red hair out of her blue eyes. She glanced around, wondering how exactly she ended up at the hospital. Last thing she remembered was…
The vampire.
Asuka was a smart girl, thought even if she had been terrified out of her mind, she knew a vampire when she saw one, and that guy was definitely a vampire. Asuka glanced at her wrist, and saw that it was wrapped in bandages and it wasn`t hurting anymore. She was still not able to believe that she had been bitten and hadn`t changed into a vampire.
Wasn`t that how someone turn into a vampire.
Suddenly, the door opened and her guardian Misato Katsuragi entered the room. Misato was a police officer who worked in the station and was well known and respected. Wearing her signature red jacket over a small black dress, the woman emitted a sexiness that would make most models jealous, thought Asuka was used to it by now.
"Don`t make me worry for you like that Asuka," she said taking the redhead into a hug.
"Er…Misato, I`m…I`m fine really."
Misato pulled out of the hug and looked at her straight in the eye.
"You sure!"
"I`m fine, really."
"I`ll take your word for it," Misato said, ``so what the hell happened?"
Asuka sighed.
"i`m not too sure myself."
"How come?" Misato asked, now curious.
"It`s going to sound crazy," Asuka stated.
"Try me,"
"I`ve been attacked by a vampire."
Silence reigned as Misato simply starred at her before straightening up.
"A vampire?"
"I`ve seen its fangs with my own eyes Misato," Asuka told her, "It was the scariest thing I`ve experienced in my entire life."
" Well, it does sound crazy…"
"See I told you…."
"How did you got away?" Misato asked.
"I didn`t," Asuka said softly, "Someone saved my life…don`t ask me I don`t know who it was, but someone saved me."
"The nurse told me that they found you on a gurney at the entrance of the hospital," Misato said, "Maybe your savior didn`t want to be known."
Asuka lied back down on the bed, watching the sky outside.
"Maybe."
When Misato left later on, Asuka fell asleep thinking about her mysterious savior.
The news of Asuka being in the hospital after a mysterious attack spread through the school like wildfire, since Asuka was one of the most popular girl in school it was no wonder that most of the school population were interested. To everyone`s surprise, the girl in question wanted to forget about the incident altogether, which made most people even more curious, thought Rei was simply watching from the sideline with amusement to the entire thing.
It was strange to see them trying to figure it out. Rei was glad that the attention had diverted away from her at the moment. She had been tired of the constant hassle she had gotten from people lately. She had been this close of ripping their heads off their necks.
Now it was lunch, and Rei had taken a seat under the large willow tree that dominated the school ground to simply read her favorite book. It was an isolated spot in the school ground so she won`t be disturb…
A shadow passed in front of her and someone seated beside her. Looking up, she was surprised at who it was.
None other than Asuka herself.
"At least they won`t be able to find me here," she murmured thought Rei heard her perfectly.
"You`re hiding?"
Asuka focused on the blue headed girl beside her, "I`m sorry"
Rei let out a smile, "Are you hiding?"
"You can say that," Asuka answered, "You?"
"I`ve found this location a great place to read," Rei answered, showing her the book.
"I`m not bothering you, am I"
"No," Rei told her, " IT`s nice to get company once in a while."
Asuka let out a smile, "I`ll bet it is…Hey, you`re that new girl in my homeroom right?"
"Yes, you`re correct," Rei answered, "Rei Ayanami."
"Asuka Langley Soryu."
The two girls shook hands.
"Great to finally meet you," Asuka told her, "Though, you have been a topic of conversation for the Stooges."
"Stooges? Rei repeated, not understanding the term.
"Yeah, the three idiot i`m usually with," Asuka told her, "Touji, Kensuke and Shinji."
"So, why do you call them idiots then," Rei asked again.
Asuka took a seat beside her, putting both of her arms behind her head, "That`s because that`s what they are."
Rei decided to shrug her shoulders, "If you say so."
Asuka grunted in reply.
The two stayed silent after that thought not for long.
"Asuka,"
"Mmh."
"I don`t mean to sound repetitive," Rei said, "but are you alright?"
Asuka starred at her, "Why do you ask?"
"Because you`re not acting as the people recognize you for," Rei stated.
"hunh?"
"The Asuka i`ve heard about is always at the center of attention," Rei told her, "and yet, here you are hiding from it with me behind this old tree."
Asuka actually laughed, "I know right, I don`t even understand it myself."
Rei closed her book and placed it on the ground beside her. She, then, turned toward the redhead, "Want to talk about it?"
Asuka sighed glancing at the sky, "I`m not even sure who to talk of it to. If I told the Stooges, they`ll laugh it off, even Misato don`t believe me."
"Then, tell me," Rei said.
Asuka then told her everything about the attack till she passed out and waking up in the hospital. When she was done, Rei simply watched the sky.
"I believe you."
"You…you do."
"I don`t see any reason you should make it up," Rei told her, "So why shouldn`t I trust your words?"
Asuka starred at the girl across her. She was surprised and taken aback at how easily Rei believed her. She had expected her to laugh, or tell her she imagined it. The girl was easy enough to talk to and Asuka was wondering how she had spilled everything to the pale albino blue-haired girl, and for once, Asuka felt glad she had talked it to her.
"Thanks Rei,"
The blue haired girl simply smiled, "It`s nothing, i`m just giving you a helping hand."
At that the bell echoed across the ground and both girls stood up.
"Hey will you be here tomorrow?" Asuka asked.
"If nothing comes up, sure," Rei told her.
"Great, i`ll meet you up here during lunch tomorrow,"
"Okay,"
The two walked up the school, and somehow Asuka felt slightly better than she felt earlier.
Yeah, that`s the first one. on to the next and review.
