Chapter one

The day we die

This is the story of how we die, but first, let me tell you a tale of three normal (well, as normal as they can be) teenage girls that was in the prim age of eighteen. This three are best friend, and people would always look at them strangely for a different girl with clashing personality and completely different appearance could never befriended with each other for they are too different.

You must be wondering as to how they could be friends. Well, all the people in their school or city didn't know. They were a different individual, never talk to each other, but then 'BAM' out of nowhere, they were best friend like they have known each other for a very long time. It just, happens. So let's tell you the tale of how this three died

It's a normal day, the sun is shining but not too bright yet not dull either, some of the clouds are blocking the sun yet never truly block it. A raven haired girl was seen in the library, looking for something to read.

It's silent. She noted while picking a book, her long raven hair swaying a little bit, she frown, it's not because it's quiet. In fact she loves quiet and calm atmosphere, it just that... With friends like hers there's no way she got any kind of peace, even when she's currently in the library, it just... Odd.

Well, better enjoyed it while it last. She shrugged then picked a book that caught her interest, then she chooses the farthest seat in the library. And fortunately, she found a good one right beside a window.

She takes a seat and open her book then sighed in content and started to read. Just to get disturbed the next second with a loud door slamming sound, she sighed again, this time filled with remorse.

"Eleanor~" Said a girl with a sing song tone while giving a smile and a cheerful aura. Eleanor just ignored her and continued to read, but if you're observant enough you could see her finger slightly tightened on her book. "Mou~ don't ignored me, Eleanor~" This time she used a whining tone.

Eleanor sighed; she closed her eyes and slightly massaging her temple while putting down her book.

"Maddie, could you please, for just... I don't know, a day, hour, I don't care even if it just a few second. Just give me some time alone." She said. Finally opening her eyes and looks straight to Madeline's eyes, deep blue sapphire clashed with mesmerizing amethyst.

Madeline or commonly known as 'Maddie' pouts. But she knows better because of so many years with her, she could literally saw the mischief in her amethyst eyes. "Well, where's the fun in that." She said while giving a smile.

Yeah right. It's a smile in other people eyes, but in her eyes, it's a smirk. A mischievous smirk. And she didn't like that smirk, not one bit. She narrowed her eye slightly.

"You're planning something I don't like, didn't you." She said with calm and flat tone.

Madeline stared at her with eyes and smile that practically screaming 'I'm innocence!'. She rolled her eyes inwardly, but only stared blankly at Madeline on the outside.

Madeline tilted her head with the same expression on her face. "I don't know what you're talking about Eleanor."

Eleanor look around her then noticed that something or someone's missing; she looked at Madeline with analyzing eyes. "Where's Ru." It's not a question and Madeline knew that.

"Outside." She said with her smile, smirk, whatever that even wider than before. Eleanor narrowed her eyes and she became tenser than before, like anticipating a fight.

"What did you do to her." She said with calm tone, but inside, she's ready to run. She didn't like how Madeline's eyes suddenly became more mischievous or how her cheerful aura becomes darker. Then a sudden realization hit her in the head. Shit!

And, Eleanor's gone in a blink of an eye. Looking at this Madeline's smile gone and replaced with a frown but back to her usual smile in a second. What she didn't notice is that, even though she is smiling she unconsciously leaks out dark aura around her.

Everybody in the library felt the temperature in the room drop several degrees below zero, and they decided to stay away from her. That, is the wisest choice they have ever take.

"No." They said coldly.

"But! I really, really wanted to go in that place!"

"And that concern me, how?" Eleanor said while still walking and fastening her step.

"Uhm... Because you're my best friend?" She said while trying to match her step with Eleanor's long stride, but failed.

"Who? Me? No. No. No, I don't know you." She said with blank face and cold tone.

"What! Eleanor! You're so mean." Madeline said, giving up on matching her stride, cursing on Eleanor's long leg. "How 'bout you Rufina! You'll accompany me in searching for Lucia's birthday gift, right?"

She turn around and just in time to see a brunette girl with ruby red eyes running to their place, when she's finally catch up to them, she stop to calm her breath.

"Tired already?" Eleanor said while raising an eyebrow with a hint of amusement in her eyes.

Rufina glared. "Fuck you, Eleanor! You and that damn leg of yours are both fucking irritating! You knew that I couldn't keep up with your ridiculous speed while you were speed walking!" Accused her while trying to calm her breath down.

"It's not my fault that you're short."

STAB!

An arrow of despair stabbed Rufina's heart while she's crying inside. "I'm not short damn it! You are the one who's too tall!"

"Hm."

"Not 'hm' you-you... Aargh fuck you!" She said, frustrated.

The frown on her face is the one thing that showed how annoyed she is, oh wait, she always had that frown on her face, Eleanor thought.

"Now, now, don't fight here. It's too crowded to start a commotion. Now! Who wanted to come with me!" Are they imagining it or they just saw a flowery background...? Nah! Just their imagination.

"Fuck no!/No." Both of them said in the same time.

Madeline's joyful face became more somber now. Shit. She's peering at them with teary eyes. Double shit. Rufina, who has the weakest defense quickly give in and sighed in defeat. But Madeline still looking at them with teary eyes, looks like she won't give up until Eleanor gives in too. Hell no.

"No." Maybe it's her cold voice or maybe because of her death glare that made Madeline give up... Maybe both.

"Argh! C'mon! Your sister's birthday is near; we only have three days before her birthday to buy her a gift! So why wouldn't you just come with me and bought her a gift too!" Madeline said whining like a child.

"In case you forgot, the last time we're shopping I ended up couldn't walk the next day cause you didn't stop for eight hours straight." Eleanor deadpanned. "And I already bought a gift."

"...Okay! At least I have Rufina to go with me!" Rufina groan then look at her with eyes that practically screaming 'Traitor!' But Eleanor just ignore her stare and look ahead her.

There's a move beside her that made her flinch and warily glance around. She didn't realize though, but her friends are secretly watching her. They've noticed that since this morning Eleanor have been so tense and always flinch whenever there's a sudden movement around her.

They are not stupid; they knew that Eleanor's so called 'intuition' had given her some kind of warning. But, it looks like Eleanor wasn't going to tell them about it, there are only two reasons as to why Eleanor didn't want to tell them. First, she's unsure of what's her 'intuition' tried to tell her. Second, she just didn't want to. When she flinched again for the -nth time that day, Rufina patience snap.

"Eleanor, what's wrong with you, you look disturbed." The fact that she didn't cuss in her sentence already says at how much she control herself to not to yell at Eleanor to tell them what's wrong.

The reason, well... She still wanted to live longer. Eleanor opened her mouth to answer just to abruptly closed her mouth because of Madeline's voice cutting out what she's about to say.

"And don't tell us nothing's wrong, we aren't stupid. We saw how tense you're this morning till now." Her usual smile—she always thought that Madeline' smile was permanent on her face just like her face that always blank and Rufina's face that always had a scowl on it—has gone to god knows where and replaced with a blank face that didn't suit her.

Eleanor sigh then shake her head. She should have known better then to hide anything to those two; they've lived together for five years. Thinking about the memories they've shared, she'd almost smile but decided to suppress it.

"Sometimes, I just didn't know what makes me befriended with you two." Madeline just smile brightly at her while Rufina just scowl and shrugged.

"Simple. It's because I'm just too cute for you to resist!" Cue another beaming smile, great. Now she's afraid that she'll get a permanent blindness because of it.

"Ah... I see... it must have been a temporary madness or something." Eleanor once again deadpanned.

"Hey!"

"And I also don't know how could I stand your incurable narcissism and hyperness that never failed to piss me off."

"Am not!" And once again, Madeline's ignored.

"Don't put me in the same group as her! I'm perfectly normal!" Protested Rufina, which receive a scoff from Madeline.

"Yeah right, tell me now, who's the person who single handedly send a whole army of thugs to hospital for 3 month, just because they pissed her off." Madeline stopped and mimicking an expression of someone who's thinking. "Ah! I know! It's the girl who said she's perfectly normal. Please, like I'll believe that." She rolled her eyes.

"I-I u-uh... I-it's... Well how about Eleanor!" She said, suddenly pointing at Eleanor who only looked at them with a raised brow. "You send an army of hiding thieves to their knees just with a glare! It's a whole lot un-normal than me!" Eleanor remembers that day very well, it's not her fault that she found those thieves hiding place, blame her intuition.

But those thieves didn't want to listen to what she's about to said, she even thought of letting them go since they're not her problem—that and the fact that she's too lazy to take care of it, also because she has a little girl with her.

Babysitting her neighbor's child is a normal occurrence for her (the pay is nice and she also likes kids, so win-win). Well, that's until one of those thieves actually hurt the little girl accidently.

Then her perfectly controlled emotion crack and replaced with anger, it turned to rage quickly when she saw blood on the little girl and when she's started to cry.

Yeah, she unconsciously leaking a murderous aura and glared darkly at them. What surprises her is that all those thieves actually fall to their knees and apologize then giving them self-up to the police with scared face. She unconsciously smirks evilly when remembering it, her friends slowly backing away. Ah, happy memory...

"Well, at least I'm just narcissistic and not a psycho." There's a pointed look directed to Rufina.

"Hey! Am not!"

"Yes you're!"

"Am not!"

"Yes you're!"

"Am not!"

"Just accept it, we are not normal, and we'll never be." Eleanor said with a matter of factly tone.

The two keep bickering and ignored her comment, she shrugged and continued walking, Eleanor could only sigh at their antics. But it didn't last long, because she flinched again at a sudden loud voice. Now that, made those two stop bickering, now they both looking at her with curious and concern filled eyes. Eleanor could only sigh.

"It's nothing guys, really, I just had a weird feeling since this morning. That's all." There's uncertainty in her tone that made their relaxed figure turned into guarded.

They couldn't help it, it's obvious that her Intuition/Instinct have never been wrong before. Those two had felt the consequences of not believing her intuition, after all. They shudder involuntarily at the memory. They learn not to underestimate each other's gift.

Like Madeline's gift to see future, well, it's more like a vision, a flash of it, it's only showing something that'll change drastically, but it can always change (future isn't that predictable after all), and sometimes it's difficult for her to tell between dream and vision. Just like how sometimes Eleanor has difficulties on telling what her intuition is trying to tell her.

That is why Madeline's eyes seems to hold knowing gaze, it somehow creeped people out, and also the reason as to why she never have close friend before she met Eleanor and Rufina. And the same as Madeline, Eleanor also has the same gaze, only wiser and it also held knowledge and intense that sometimes people would look away if she looked into their eyes.

That's also the reason as to why she's always alone and seems like unapproachable, because whenever she gaze at people's eyes, they feel like she know all of their secrets; almost like she can read their minds, like she saw through them, and it scares them, it freaked them out.

Rufina has a gift of seeing things or someone's past, she had difficulties at separating between dream and real memory though, and she also had a problem with her energy. Whenever she use her gift for too long then it'll drain her energy. That's why she always uses gloves, because her gift would activate whether she liked it or not if she touch people or things directly, especially if those things has a strong history. She didn't know how to control her gift, the same as Madeline and Eleanor.

So, when Eleanor said that her intuition trying to tell her something, they unconsciously became tenser and became more guarded. What? They couldn't help it, better prepared right? They keep walking with tense shoulder, the playful atmosphere have gone for god knows where. Eleanor keep glancing here and there, Rufina was busy at finding something suspicious. They didn't look at Madeline who for a while put on her serious face and thinking hard, but then shake her head and sigh.

She couldn't stop her thought on her last night dream, could it be? No. It's not possible, 'cause it's involving that anime that she and her friends like to watch, Madeline sigh again then put on her smiling face. It's just a dream. But why did she felt like she's trying to convince herself. The silence was broken by Madeline who started to talk again.

"Let's just go to the usual cafe, it would calm us down... I think." The other two just shrugged, agreeing instantly.

They walk for a few minutes before they finally arrive in a Cafe with big brown butterfly statue on top of the building. Once they get inside and take a seat they just choose the usual order since they're a regular. It was then that Madeline settled for a chocolate cake for Eleanor's little sister birthday. A few minutes after Madeline ordered the cake, Eleanor's head started to pound with excruciating headache.

"Lucia would love it, so please, can we go home now." Rufina said while looking at her sandwich in a bored manner.

"Yeah, sure. After we finish eating."

"Hm..."

Thunk. Stab. Stab. Thunk. Stab.

They looked at Eleanor who stabbed at her cake repeatedly and looked at it blankly. "Um... Eleanor?" Madeline's question went ignored.

"Okay Eleanor, what's wrong." Rufina said, finally fed up with the constant noise.

"Nothing." Eleanor said with her usual blank face.

"Don't lie Eleanor, even though you're a very convincing liar, your behavior didn't support you this time." Eleanor raised an eyebrow in question.

"You didn't touch your cake." Rufina said in a matter-of-factly tone.

"Not touching my cake didn't mean anything." Eleanor replied flatly.

Madeline laugh. "Eleanor, dear. Didn't touch your cake already told us many story and none of it have any good meaning behind."

"I'm just not in the mood—" she ignored Madeline and Rufina's (mocking, definitely mocking) gasp of surprise. "—and my head are hurting with this headache that I have ever since... I don't know, a few minutes ago?" Eleanor said while massaging her head a little and sigh.

"Well then, since we're all done and you don't have any mood to eat your cake, let's just go." Madeline said while giving her usual smile.

Rufina grunted in annoyance before finally stood up from her seat, and picking up her things. Eleanor sat for a little longer while looking at a spoonful of cake, she shrug, eat just a little before picking up her belonging as well, then the three of them continued on walking.

"Is it because of that fucking demonic intuition of yours?" Rufina said suddenly, breaking the silence.

"Don't say that about her intuition, we both know how many times that intuition saves u—" Madeline stopped talking while giving them blank look.

Her smile that usually adorning her face, gone, and there's just, blank. Eleanor and Rufina glance at each other, they knew what that looks means, it means that Madeline have one of those 'sight' so now they just have to wait. They stopped in front of a crossing road, and when the sign for cars to stop lightened, they move to cross the road, while Eleanor holding to Madeline so that she wouldn't lost her way. It was this time that Eleanor's headache worsened and she stopped walking.

So these two didn't realize the truck that coming their way real fast, (too fast actually) when they were crossing the road, Rufina did though, so she tried to pull them back, but it was too late. And then there was a loud BAM and CRACK and a lot of pain, the next time they opened their eyes, they were faced with a little girl with a white hair and a pair of turquoise eyes, she smiled at them. She opened her mouth and say.

"Welcome, you probably wondering where you are?" They nodded, her smile get a tad bit brighter. "Well, to make it simple, you three are dead."

They blink. What?

AN: so, what do you think for a first story? apologized for any bad grammar, review please?
