VAVAV
Nothingness, a blank canvas with all the colors and brushes next to it, yet empty and worthless, but so full of potential, just waiting to be touched with all the creativity imaginable.
Mukuro appeared to stare at the clock that was on the other side of the room, but her look was going past it.
She had zoned out into nothingness, as if she was in a state of standby.
Unknown to her another person was staring also.
Staring at her.
Junko looked around, the atmosphere around was lively, the dining hall was full and everyone was either eating or chatting with eachother, their voices and sounds of the plates, forks being moved echoing throughout the dining hall.
But to her, the atmosphere was bland, it felt cold and annoying.
She looked back at Mukuro, she knew her sister was bored and she knew It's on her to fix that.
-Mukuro, are you thinking about mr lucky student again?
Her sister seemed to snap back to reality.
-Uhh no.. I guess I was just zoned out.
-Geeeez Im so hopelessly bored, once these morons scram we should lure one of them to the AV room and kill them
-Bu..t didn't we agree to not start the killing until the plan is all set..?
-Yea but Im just so bored, c'mon it'll be like, a total accident, we'll say we should watch a movie and then when the lights go out...WHAM
-Junko please stop, you know we aren't supposed to kill anyone.
Junko looked up and her smile widened as she continued:
-Alright, in that case I'll just set up a date for you and Makoto, I'll pick the movie.
Junko briefly streched her arms above her head, pushed the chair back and stood up
-Hey Makoto...
Before she could say anything else, Mukuro springed up from her seat and grabbed her hand across the table.
-Can you please not do something embaressing.
Mukuro's eyes looked hazy, but nervous.
-Oh cmonnn I'll walk you trough what you gotta do! and I'll keep an eye on how things are going, in case I have to step in.
Mukuro sat back down and gave a shrug as her look fell on the floor.
-Did you mention a movie!? That's a great idea!
A voice emerged from the crowd.
It was the voice of The Ultimate Moral Compass.
Taka stood up in a flash and got everyones attention.
-In that case I recommend "10 away from everything"!
-it's a story of a gambling man who lost everything but still fights for his dreams, he meets the love of his life who helps his addiction!
-It's a great movie that will stir a lot of conversation! It would be great if you all came, I will prepare the AV room for 1:30 PM today!
-Looks like I'm gonna kill someone after all.
Junko said as a grin formed on her face.
-Stop joking about that.
Mukuro let out a sigh as her look lifted from the floor.
-Yahooo! what a wonderful idea Taka, I'll get popcorn and drinks for everyone!
Junko replied cheerfully.
-I would not usually accept but if the theme is betting I must also watch.
Said Celeste.
-I do have to admit Taka sure knows how to get everyone involved.
Kyoko added... probably anticipating a debate at the end of it.
-Very well it's decided! I will go begin preparing the AV room!
Taka turned and stomped out of the dining hall.
-Man, that dude sure has lost his damn mind from following rules all the time.
-We just fucking woke up an hour ago, I have no idea how he's got so much energy.
Mondo mumbled while swinging on one of the chairs, his legs on the table.
-Hey! Get your legs down from there! We eat from that table!
Hina shouted from the other side of the room.
-Ey why don't you stick to swimming instead of trying to boss other people around, while you still got limbs for it.
Mondo and Hina started arguing back and forth, but Junko turned to her sister again and started talking:
-Well this isn't all like I wanted, but you can stilllll hold his hand in the dark so no one else sees.
-Come on Junko, you know it's not like that.
Mukuro turned around and awkwardly smiled.
AVAVA
With the argument between Hina and Mondo having died down (Mostly thanks to Kyoko) Chihiro, Sakura and Hina were the only ones left in the Dining hall.
-Geez that guy is so annoying, I already feel exhausted just by talking to him
Hina sighed as she took a bite of a donut.
-Maybe it would be wise if we went for a swim so you can work on your shape and not get tired so easy.
The Ultimate Martial Artist advised.
-Yea.. I wanna become stronger so I am gonna come too!
Chihiro added.
-Ok but I am bringing this donut with me as well.
Still munching on the donut Hina and Chihiro exited the room.
Leaving the room, a gush of wind suddenly flew passed Sakura and the kitchen door squeaked.
She stopped in her tracks and her eyes fixated on the kitchen door.
A sudden, instinctive, ominous and almost irrational thought went trough Sakura's mind.
What is this feeling? Is something going to happen? Are we really safe.. here? What is .. this?
Silence filled the empty spacious room.
Sakura gathered up her thoughts and without trying to explain anything that went trough her mind, exited the room.
Silence resumed filling the room, as if getting heavier with each passing second, as if pilling up on itself, almost even creating some sort of sound, a static, feeling heavy.
. . .
-Puhuhuhuhu...
A faint yet clear voice broke the silence
... and shadow started casting from the doorway.
Junko emerged from the inside of the kitchen, carrying her notebook close to her chest.
A grin on her face, and a powerful look in her eyes.
As if breaking every fabric of existance in her vicinity, crumbling it up by every second her lips were slowly opening, silence laid dead, as she said:
-If you like swimming so much, I think I might as well make sure, that, you swim for your life.
