Sorry it felt likeI cut that last one off, I felt like it was getting too long. In this chapter, I'm going to finish up most of what happened in chapter 2 of the game, and also chapter 3. So that way I can go into great detail for chapter 4. Idk, maybe it'll be a little less innocent than in the game, huehuehue. Also I'm gonna forewarn you about the pun on the word 'apocalypse.' I'm sorry in advance. Other than that, I decided to begin writing a LivXRavi fanfic for the new show on the CW iZombie, that'll probably be coming out in a few days. I'm having a bit of writer's block for my MSP fanfic tho, lemme know if yopu have any ideas.
For this chapter, I drew inspiration from the song "Power & Control" by the fabulous Marina and the Diamonds. Enjoy!
We left the headmaster's office in complete silence. We walked next to each other, with me slightly behind him due to the crazy fast pace he walks at. "Um, I guess we''ll be working together then, so . . ." was all I could get out. Klaus sighed.
"Just great." Well, that really did a number on my self-esteem. "I absolutely loathe looking after you with every ounce of my heart, and now this! Great."
I could've smacked him right then and there, that asshole. "You could've refused." I shot back. Klaus walked a little faster. "I would have, but the reward might be worth it." he said sassily. "Hmph. Then I don't want to hear you complaining." Klaus suddenly stopped and turned to me with a face alike I was a child caught stealing from then cookie jar. "I'm going to make you pass . . . no matter what."
I hated the way he talked down to me all the time. The only good thing about him was that his eyes were absolutely mesmerizing. He was feared by most of the student body, but I was determined to let him know that I was not going to be part of that majority.
"From this day forth," Klaus continued. "I will give you a special lesson every day. After class, you're going to be my slave doing anything I want." So I was going to be his slave, yeah, that didn't sound too naughty. But I knew what he meant. "Whatever." I figured at the very least, there was gain for me. I would get into the academy I've always dreamed of being a part of. It's almost like sucking a teacher off for good grades . . . except less demeaning. And I was certainly not going to do THAT. All I had to do was put up with him for a few days.
We started walking in silence again, keeping our thoughts entirely to ourselves. Something about it was somewhat oppressive. Until Klaus finally broke the silence. "I want to be a professor." he stated simply. I snuck a glance at his face. "So that I'd be able to yell and knock useless students like you back into shape." I rolled my eyes. Of course. "It'd be a great stress reliever." I said sarcastically.
Silence fell over us again as we were walking down the hallway of the main building. Until all of a sudden, the emblem affixed to my school uniform began to glow. I was being paired with someone.
"No way, it can't be." I heard Klaus say. When I looked up, Klaus' emblem was glowing too. A sphere of light came from each of our emblems and merged together in between us. It then exploded in an intense light, sprinkling tiny fragments of light upon the two of us.
We stood there in even more silence.
"Apparently you and I are buddies now." I said finally, growing tired of the immense silence. All the students in the vicinity stared at us in awe. In the crowd, I could hear things like "No way, Prefect Klaus lit up?", "You've gotta be kidding.", and "With Emperor Klaus?" Their mutters and whispers grew louder and louder.
"Great. Now I've got even more reason to worry about you." Just something about the way he said it made it sound like his entire life was over. He glared at me, the expression in his eyes sent chills down my spine. "I'm sure we'll get along real nice, Bunnyhead." The sarcasm in his voice cut deep. And my rosy dreams of academy life had been crumbled into oblivion.
I stormed off right then, to my next class. As I walked I angrily brushed the remaining particles of light off me. I was able to find my classroom fairly easy. Like every other place in the school, bubbles of contained light floated about the ceiling. And the walls were thick wood paneling. They apparently hadn't done any renovations since the academy's early years. The room was filled with other students happily chatting away with one another. Scanning the room for an open spot, my eyes fell on a particularly cute boy with an eyepatch over one eye and raven blue hair.
I introduced myself, but he seemed even more distant than Klaus. Not like a stuck up kind of distant, more like a quiet distant. He didn't say much, but he did tell me his name was Yukiya. "You there!" I heard a boy yell from across the room. I didn't know why, but I felt like he was referring to me, so I turned to see. For a second I thought it was Klaus standing there; he had the same silky golden hair, the same facial features, the same way of standing, even the same beautiful violet eyes. I even called out Klaus' name before I could think otherwise.
"I'm Elias, not Klaus." he said slightly annoyed. I understood why, he looked so much like Klaus the two probably got mixed up all the time. That would sure as hell be annoying. "Klaus is my brother."
I giggled a little. "Yeah I could tell, sorry about that. "
"It's fine, it happens all the time."
Elias seemed a lot more easy going than his brother Klaus. It it we Klaus instead of Elias, he would be in the middle of chewing my ear off about it right now. "Anyway, is there anything I can help you with? Any questions so far?" he asked me. He was almost the complete opposite of his brother. "Nah, I'm okay for right now."
At that point another guy with longer hair, dyed mint, shoved his way between me and Elias. "I've got one, babe. Do you have a boyfriend?" His face was uncomfortably close to my own. "I'm Luca Orlem. So, wanna ditch and make out around the side of the building?" Ugh, he was one of those guys. I've had my fair share of douche-bags like him, and I was not about to go down that road again, no matter how hot he was. Damn, this school is just crawling with hot guys . . .
"No thanks, I'm not in the mood for apoca-lips." I said with a smile. "Have a nice day."
"Feisty, I like it." Luca said as he began to walk away
"You'll only get trouble with him." Elias said to me. "Heh, so I noticed." Just then the chime of the school bell echoed loudly throughout the classroom. "See you later, I guess." Elias said before going back to his own seat.
When the bell rang again, I was ready to get out of there. Not only were everyone's eyes on me for being the girl to light up Klaus' emblem, but I also messed up a spell in class and I just . . . just don't want to talk about it. Anyway, I went to Klaus' office after class as I told him I would. I peeked through the crack in the door to see Prefect Klaus looking over some documents. He must of heard the creaking of the old door.
"So you came. I thought you would run away." He said without looking up from his work. "I said I'd come, didn't I?" I strolled up to his desk. "I'm not going to run."
"Then you better get started. Organize those documents in numerical order and put them on the shelf over there." Klaus directed me, still not looking up from his papers. Jeez, he wasn't kidding when he said he was going to enslave me. And with that I picked up the documents he had pointed to and began sorting them. This was how I was going to be treated from now on, I thought I'd better get used to it. Plus, I needed something from this guy, to be accepted.
I was done in only fifteen minutes. "Prefect Klaus," I called out. "I finished putting the documents away."
"Good. Now put all the books on that table on the shelf too."
There were eye rolls from me, but I did as he told me. I was in the C's when Klaus tried talking to me again. "I heard you grew bunny ears in the very first class."
"Shut up."
"It actually gives me a legitimate reason to call you Bunnyhead, Bunnyhead." he teased me. "We're buddies, not bunnies. Got that? Everytime you mess up, it hurts me."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah."
Prefect Klaus scowled at me with cold, vicious eyes, but once again I ignored him. I had a feeling I would be doing a lot of that.
"Alrighty, Mr. Prefect sir, I finished cleaning up." I said in my best jersey-girl dialect. Klaus was unfazed. "Take those books there and return them to the library."
Ok, how long is this guy's list of chores for me?
"Seriously?"
"Bunny ears?"
"Gah, fine!" I stammered as I grabbed the books and stormed out of Klaus' office. I came back out of breath. I had sprinted there and back because I felt like if I didn't, Prefect Klaus would yell at me for taking too long. I stood hunched over the coffee table. "Do you like, hate me or something?"
Klaus chuckled. "Your emotions are written all over your face, clear as day. I might enjoy teaching you." he teased. I panted heavily, still out of breath.
"You mean teasing."
"Heh, yeah." Jeezus, he was annoying as hell.
By the time Prefect Klaus finally let me go, my body trembled with exhaustion. My short little legs couldn't take all this physical activity at one time. He had me running errands for him all over the school. Yeah, not a fun time. I hobbled up the stairs of the north stairwell before turning the corner and literally slamming right into someone's hard chest. "NYEH PEOPLE!" I yelped.
"Whoa! Slow down, Pinkie." said a male voice. After regaining my composure, I looked up to see a handsome face of a boy with chocolate brown hair, side parted and shaved on one side, and bright blue eyes. His uniform was mostly shades of black and gray, as opposed to the usual shades of blue and gold. "Sorry, I wasn't paying attention!" I quickly apologized.
"Not at all, it's my fault too." said the pretty blue-eyed boy. "Hey, didn't I see you earlier?"
"What? No."
"Aha, sorry, wrong person I guess . . . I don't recognize your face . . ." His cheeks blushed a bright coral.
"Yeah, I'm pretty hard not to recognize." I said with a sweet smile. I was obviously referring to my long pink hair and heavy eye makeup. "Pleased to meet you, I'm Luna Glass."
"I'm Azusa Kuze." He said, and reached into his pocket and pulled out a small bottle. "Here. It's my apology for running into you." He took my hand and pushed the bottle onto my palm. It was filled with little star shaped opaque candies of all different colors.
"Aw, I love candy! What are these?"
"Konpeito." he said simply as I popped open the bottle and let a pink one roll out onto my palm.
"I mean, they call it something different here, but they're just little sugar candies."
"Well, thank you, Azusa. I'm almost glad I ran into you." I said flirtatiously. "Yeah," Azusa began. "I've gotta run, maybe I'll see you later, Luna." And with that we parted ways. He quickly left, but not before flashing me a sweet smile.
He's cute. . .
The next day was not much better; class seemed to drag on even more than yesterday, and I didn't even make a fool of myself today! Today I wore my hair curly, but it was still a considerable length past my butt. I had a three little monarch butterfly hair clips pinned randomly in my hair. My legs we sore from all the running around I did for Klaus. I wasn't able to bring myself to wear heels today, instead I opted for my pastel pink Y.R.U. Rose Qozomopolitan Platforms. Minus the ugly uniform, I looked like a fairy.
Wick was upset when I put on those shoes. For some reason he likes to cuddle up against the roses on the platform part.
It was already my third day at Gedonelune Royal Magic Academy. I was standing right outside Prefect Klaus' office door, about to knock, when it suddenly flew open, and I toppled forward, falling into yet another chest. Only this time I didn't have to look to know who it was. "Sorry, I spaced out." I apologized quickly. Me still against his chest, he said You're late." At this point I got off him.
"Sorry, class ran a little long." It was totally a lie, but an excuse nonetheless. And he fell for it, so . . . "I was just about to come find you." Klaus said adjusting his tie. "You don't need to come find me, I'll come to you as soon as class lets out."
"Particularly obedient today, are we?" I decided to let this one slide. "We're going outside today anyway." Klaus said as he began walking, momentarily leaving me standing there alone.
"Outside?" I said catching up to him.
"Did I stutter?" Klaus grabbed my wrist, dragging me to his side.
