Phase of Revenge
"Hey, hey Toku, we're here, wake up!"
-thud- "Oww…" I sat up, rubbing my head. Guess I fell asleep on the way…
"Ow!" Alfred-san exclaimed, "you hit my chin!"
"I-I'm sorry," I blinked my sleep away and looked out the car door.
There stood a HUGE house with… three stories? Is that what you would call a mansion? In addition, there was a beautiful front lawn with colorful flowers….arranged in an American flag? Alfred-san never ceases to amaze me…
"Well, are you getting out or not?" He stood waiting by the door.
"Oh yeah," I hopped out, grabbed my suitcase, and headed toward his house.
"Ah, I see you finally woken up," Honda-san stepped out of the door and led me inside.
"Yes, and… where will I be staying?" I looked around and saw a huge staircase leading to two upper floors with multiple doors in the halls.
"I believe in one of the rooms at the third floor," he started to lead me upstairs.
"We don't need to take our shoes off?" I looked around for the shoes area.
"It seems that in America, it does not matter. I would leave them on though."
"Heyy Kiku, use my elevator if you're taking her upstairs!" called out the American.
"He has an elevator in his house?" I stared at Honda-san, awestruck.
"Erm, I did not know either."
We went up the elevator and when the doors opened, I saw several hallways with rows of doors and windows at the ends.
"Oh my…" I gasped. I have a feeling I will get lost in here.
"Here is your room key," he handed me a little key with some number, "I believe your room is the second to last in the first hall to your left."
"Uhmm… okay, arigatou," Is this a hotel? I looked around, "wait, where is your room?"
"Mine will be on the second floor," I slumped, "but do not worry, I will still be nearby," he patted my head.
"Hai," I walked toward the first hall. Since I was in a new place, I was afraid to be too far from Honda-san.
"I will be helping Alfred-san so you may do as you please in the meantime. I already took care of your cake so do not worry about that. It will be ready when the time comes."
"Arigatou, wakarimashta," I bowed at him. He left and I headed to my room.
"My room should be around here…" I counted down the doors and then one suddenly flew open and someone dashed out and ran into me.
"Watch where you're going!" shouted a younger sounding boy.
"Ow… I'm sorry," I looked up and saw a blond child in a sailor suit. I got up and found myself a head taller.
"I-I'm sorry too," mumbled the kid. I guess he realized the position he's in. "Say, I never seen you before. What's our name?"
"I am Tokumi, Honda-san's—"
"Child?"
"No! Not exactly…"
"Sister?"
"Not at all."
"Then what?"
"He is just taking care of me okay!" I said, flustered.
"Fine then," he straightened up, "I am Peter Kirkland."
"Kirkland..? Are you related to Arthur Kirkland by any chance?"
"Don't remind me."
"O-okay, I'm sorry." I will take that as a yes, "So, did you come with Arthur-san early?"
"Nope" he said proudly.
"Nope?"
"He was taking too long so I ditched him and came myself."
I admire his courage, I think. "Wow, that's amazing." I grabbed my suitcase, "I am going to my room now, next door, so I will see you later, I guess."
"I was leaving anyway, so bye," he ran down the hall and skipped down the stairs.
"Strange little kid," I said to myself as I started opening the door. I walked in but bumped into something and the door slammed shut behind me.
The room was dark despite the little light coming from the covered windows and I started hearing some eerie noises.
"W-who's there?" Being someone who gets frightened easily, I started trembling. Is this room haunted?
Someone grabbed my shoulders, "Boo"
I jolted up and tried to grab the door knob but felt something soft rather than the hard door.
A hand grabbed my arm and dragged me further into the room.
"Let go! I'm sorry for disturbing you, spirit-san who owns this room!"
The windows flashed open and I found Gilbert-san laughing his head off by the curtains.
"Hey, it was getting good," whined a familiar French-sounding man.
Realizing it was Bonnefoy-san, I jerked him off and stood back. "W-what was that for?" I rested against the wall, still trembling.
"Oh man, that was so awesome!" Gilbert-san fell to the floor, still laughing.
"We got you real good, didn't we?" winked Bonnefoy-san.
I felt my face get hot from embarrassment. Sure, I am terrified of scary situations but I still have my dignity. "Why?"
"Nothing from me, I just wanted some fun," turned away the albino.
"No one messes with big brother France and gets away with it."
"When did I mess with yo—The sword fight isn't it?" I slumped down to the floor and sighed.
"Oui," he crept closer to me, "and big brother France doesn't like losing."
"Oh hey! There you guys are," Antonio-san peeked through the door, "you know this place is huge."
"Sorry but we couldn't risk this plan with you in it," shrugged Gilbert.
"Hurtful…" whined Antonio-san, "Francis, what are you doing to her?"
"Nothing," he patted my head and I scooted away.
"It looks like something," he helped me up and I hid behind him, glaring at Bonnefoy-san.
Francis looked away a bit and laughed nervously, "Just a friendly prank that's all, hah hah hah…" he started out the door.
I put my foot out and tripped him, making him fall on his face.
"Err, I'm gonna go see when Matthew is coming," Gilbert-san dashed out, stepping on Francis-san on the way.
"Ack," he moaned, still on the ground.
"I… will go do my knee thing to Alfred again, adios" he left the room, stepping on him also.
"Gah," he lifted his head up a little.
"The bigger they are, the harder they fall, jerk." I stomped on his back and stormed out the room as well.
"Pourquoi…?" The Frenchman was left on his own.
HURRAY! New chapter, finally! Tokumi finally thought she was going to get comfortable but 2/3 of the Bad Touch Trio had to ruin that. Will this revenge cycle end? Who knows. Introduced Peter Kirkland (aka Sealand) this time. Who's next? Thank you for reading, please tell how I'm doing so far ^.^
