A school of delinquents.

The worst of the worst.

If you went to this school you were known to have a bad reputation.

This was my school and I was placed here for my reputation.

"There she goes" whispered a student to another one as they watched me walked by. Their eyes noticing every move I made. "The reaper of Ishiyama" they echoed. Moments like that have become normal scenario for me but they never really changed the way I felt about my identity at this school. After that day people warned each other not to associate with me. I heard their little whispers and felt their eyes on me. I was not to be talked too or else they would end up living a nightmare. Worse than you could ever imagine. It doesn't sound pretty does it? Thus thats how I ended up being alone at school. They were all afraid to find out what I could do. Even the toughest guy were convinced by their friends that I was supposed to be avoided. It was all superstitious and all for nothing. I hated how I got to be known as bad luck at school. If it that day didn't happen I would have been living a normal school life. Well as normal as Ishiyama got.

Slowly a large shadow casted it self down on me. With my path blocked, I looked up surprised by the sudden interaction. My purple eyes saw orange hair, thick eyebrows with a scar, and a pair of eyes that stared down at me. It seemed like he was analyzing my face. The guy made no noise and just continued to stare.

"Oh! He sure has balls going up to her." I heard someone whisper.

"What do you expect. Its Toujou Hidetora."

I then copied the guy in front of me and analyzed him. Then something clicked inside my head. My eyes slightly widened realizing he was there when I became "the reaper of Ishiyama".

Oh no… I thought in distraught. My stomach flipped seeing that something clicked inside his head as well. "You're that girl…" He paused for a second before nodding his head. "Yeah, I'm certain." He mumbled to himself. Taking a step closer he brought his face a little too close to mine. I could not hide the extreme discomfort I felt in this situation. My mouth slightly opened but no words came out. I couldn't speak and stood there frozen. But the urge to get away from him was greater than anything and I turned around swiftly before making a run for it. Thoughts raced and my heart beat rapidly.

This was trouble. He was trouble.

Watching my figure runoff, Toujou blinked in surprised. His expression then changed. A smirk formed on his lips and he chuckled lightly. "This is going to be fun." He announced already feeling a new challenge coming his way

After a while of running I stopped. I figured he couldn't have followed me and that I was safe. My breathing was heavy and I was exhausted. I looked around and thankfully there was no one around.

I took out my phone and saw the time. I cursed under my breath seeing the time.

I was late to class

Unlike many of the students here, I did actually care about my education. It wasn't up to par with the rest of the schools but Ishimaya was an ok school. I started to make my way to my class. Since I did not want to run into Toujou again, I had to take the long route.

I had been so preoccupied with the time that I didn't sense a presence behind me. "You sure run fast but not fast enough" I stopped dead in my tracks. How could he catch up so quick! I turned around and hit Toujou's chest. "Y-You!" I exclaimed as I rubbed my nose making him chuckled. "Listen, I don't know exactly what you saw but leave me alone." I stepped back from him and narrowed my eyes. My voice was direct and harsh but that still didn't wipe the smirk off his face. Yet again he started coming closer to me. "Stop following me and get lost" My feet started to move away from him and I bolted away. This time he didn't give me a head start but actually started running after me.

This guy doesn't give up! I growled under my breath. I shut my eyes tight and speed up. I passed the long hallways and dodged students. He had no trouble following my exact same moves. Which was funny considering the difference in size.

I had spotted a chance to lose him, up ahead was a window. If I jumped out of it at the right angle, I could land on a roof below it. He for sure wouldn't be able to jump out of that window since it was too small for his body to fit through. As I got closer I braced myself. I was a couple of seconds ahead of him and that was all I needed. I climbed up the window and looked down at the other side of the roof. I heard Toujous footsteps come closer. My head turned and saw his arm reach out to grab me. Before he could make contact I had flung myself out of the window. I was in the air for a brief moment before landing on the roof. The landing was a bit rough but I didn't waste any time to run away. I wasn't sure what his guy wanted but I didn't want find out.

This had gone on for several days. I had managed to avoid Toujou but he didn't give up. This time I was in the library hiding. I was sure this is the last place he would come look for me.

I was exhausted but I didn't want to know what Toujou had in mind once he caught me. I had heard he was super strong and one of the top fighters of Ishimaya. A shiver went down my back. He saw what had happened to me. Maybe he wanted to blackmail me?

The room was quiet. There had been students in here before but once they recognized me, they left in a hurry. "The Reaper running away from someone…" I said out loud and a laugh escaped my lips. How ironic. I rolled my eyes. It had been a while since someone had the guts to face me. I usually got rid of them by bluffing about my skills. But this Toujou guy was different. He cracked the image of the reaper for the first time.

It was something I didn't expect and I didn't like it.

I got up from my hiding place and decided to leave. Toujou should be in class about now so I didn't have to worry about him for a while.

I had exited the library and was making my way back to class. As I turned the corner, a hand grabbed me. I let out a gasp and before I knew it I was hoisted over someone's shoulder. "Finally caught you!" Toujou yelled in victory. I tried to struggle but his grip was tight . "L-Let me go!" I hit his back repeatedly but that was no use. It was as if he felt nothing because he didn't even flinch. "This is the only way I know you won't run away." He said and began walking. I groaned in defeat. "Look I just want to talk." He admitted. I glared down at the floor. "Then why did you chase me?" I asked in a low tone. "You were the one that ran away." I said nothing and continue to glare at the floor. Knowing that I couldn't escape, I just hanged across his shoulder. Good thing I always wear shorts I felt the skirt of my uniform raise a little from the position I was in and the air hit my skin. Ugh I hate this! I placed my hand over one of my eyes, dreading what was happening. I went from someone who was feared by others to being draped over some strangers shoulder.

Toujou finally stopped once he made his way outside. We were on the roof and alone. As we made our way outside, we passed by several students who gave us quite the shocked expression. Some even prayed, saying that Toujou would curse the school even more by abducting the reaper.

"I don't want want to chase you again. So if I put you down don't run for it." I said nothing. "But if you do, I won't play around anymore but actually take it seriously."

My eyes widened

That was him playing! I felt my face go pale. I had exhausted myself everyday for the past four days hiding and running away from him. Toujou (now that I thought about it, never broke a real sweat) was only playing! I clenched my fist in defeat. "Fine..." He had been holding me firmly with one arm but now placed both hands around my waist as he carefully put me down in front of him. It was like he was putting down a porcelain doll. He put me down carefully as if I would shatter if he was too rough. Now he was gentle but hoisting me over his shoulder, was no problem. Once I was on my own to feel I stared at him with a stoic expression. He didn't seem disturbed by it.

"I'm just ganna be straight...I saw what you did that day..." I was right. Even though I knew this, my chest tightened. I wanted to put that day past me and all the hurt it caused. I was about to tell him to forget about it and not to waste his time with that but before I could, he continued. "I want you to do it to me"

My mouth hung open as I looked at him with a bewildered expression. "W-What!" He peered down at me. He was dead serious. "You hear me. I want you to do whatever you did to those guys to me" He was so set on this that I could not believe it. "Do you know what happened to those guys?! They ended up in a coma!" I couldn't help but speak loudly. This guy was nuts. "So?" There was no concern in his face. "I am sure I can handle whatever you did." He then started smirking. Hunger lurked behind that smirk. "Besides, it will be fun to test out my abilities. I've only seen Oga do something similar to you. If I can handle whatever you throw at me! Then I can defeat him in a rematch!"

This guy is exhausting and confusing. My irritation increased trying to think of a way to get rid of him. I felt like if I told him the truth, that whatever happened was only a one time thing that it wouldn't get through his thick skull. I sighed seeing him waiting for me to respond. Bluffing was out of the window because I couldn't wrap my head around something smart to say. Honesty was the only real option I had but I had a bad feeling about it.

"Sorry to dissapoint you but what you saw can't be done again. I can't do it." I crossed my arms in front of me. I looked over to the side. My image of being a master of fright, was crumpling more and more because of this guy.

I glanced back at him, expecting him to be shocked but instead he had the same expression as before. "I see…" He said after a few seconds. "You're just scared that I will defeat you and that's why you don't wanna do it!" I froze in place. "No! Didn't you just hear what I said?!" He seemed taken back before smiling. "I am good at reading the meaning behind things and you don't have to pretend." I dared not to blink at hearing his words.

This guy was a total idiot.

He placed a hand on my shoulder and a gleam went in his eye. "If you help me, I will be your only threat. I'll take care of whoever wants to challenge you and you will get to keep your reputation." I didn't even say anything before Toujou patted my shoulder and nodded. "It's a deal then!" With that he turned and walked away. "I'll find you tomorrow and we'll start practicing!" He yelled out to me before leaving the roof.

What have I gotten myself into?
