Dear Diary,
Today was another awesome day! Lizzie and I went to the forest today to hunt! We had a bet who could catch more animals than the other. Liz won but it was kinda unfair because he could shoot things whenever he wants. I can't kill them like he does, I need actual weapons for that! Besides I don't need a stupid bet to prove I'm the best! We ate the meat we caught, so the grown ups wouldn't know we went to the forest. For some reason it's off-limits to go to there but there's nothing dangerous about trees!
That prissy guy was there too but he wasn't much help since he kept tripping over everything. I don't know what Liz sees in that guy, he's just a pain in the ass. I wish Luddy could have joined us. I bet he would have been better than that Roderich guy.
Father wasn't that pleased when we left without his permission though. At least it was fun! I still have to do a ton of training to make up for it.
The awesome Gilbert signing out! (Writing a diary is really fun!)
Chapter 4. A Promising Start or an Illusion Ready to Shatter?
Lovino was still seething. Just his luck to have an idiot of a little brother. He scowled as he rubbed his sore ribs. Feliciano wasn't heavy or bulky, but damn his elbows were sharp.
"What'd you do that for, you bastard?" He had some guilty satisfaction seeing that his younger brother wasn't unscathed but the guy's defiant expression really pissed him off.
"I should be saying that, the poor guy was terrified!"
"He deserved it! What were you doing with that bastard anyway?" He could almost hear his little brother rolling his eyes as he pouted.
"We were just talking. He didn't talk much, though," He added thoughtfully." I wonder what's bothering him."
Lovino snorted in response. "I don't know what you see in that bumbling idiot."
"He's a nice guy, you know! A bit awkward but really sweet." Feliciano hotly retorted. "What do you have against him, anyway?"
"He's rude, a bumpkin, and have you looked at his hair?! It looks like he slicked his hair back with a whole barrel of gasoline!"
"Okay, I never said I approved of his fashion sense." Feliciano admitted, though couldn't help but add a retort. "It's not like we really cared about OUR clothes for the last two years though..."
"You're missing the point!" He opened his mouth only to find out he had run out of steam so he settled for a dissatisfied sigh. "Just don't go off and disappear again, jackass."
His eyes slightly widened as the expressive sibling hugged him from behind. "I won't." It was a rare tender moment between the two, until the albino decided it would be a great idea to bust down the door again.
"You-" "No time!" The pale intruder quickly cut off the incoming rant. "Get ready in five minutes tops, we need to move out NOW." The two shot up as if the house was burning. "What for?!" The devilish grin that Lovino had seen at the time of the house deal resurfaced. "We're going hunting."
In all the years in Feliciano's life, the sight below as his perch on the rooftop had to be one of the most grotesque. "Okay, what is THAT?!"
A hunched figure, wearing what presumed to be a clown outfit, lumbered on the stone pavement. Its face was horribly dabbed with make up, its visage pasty white, and the eye liner looking like it was scrawled on. Almost hidden by the oversized sleeves were hands, twisted into claws, that were dripping with red that could not have been tomatoes, or any other food substances for that matter. With the curved ram horns and a long furry tail, the creature looked like a demon straight out of a twisted fairy tale.
"That." Gilbert replied with grim excitement. "is our target." The albino started to confidently explain to the puzzled siblings. "Okay, since you guys are new to this whole thing, you'll be sitting this one out. Instead, you'll be analyzing our battle styles and locating an enemy's weak points. Got it?"
"Yes, but-"
"Good, Lud get ready!" The blond nodded, eyes shining with determination. "
"Wait-" The words died in his throat as the duo jumped off the roof.
"Give it a rest, Feli." Lovino was almost casually lounging on the tiles, an apathetic expression on his face. "They'll take care of it, we just have to sit and watch. What's better is we don't even have to do anything since it doesn't matter!"
"True..."
"We just have to relax here until it's over."
Ludwig was nervous. Which didn't make any sense since hunts were something he had gotten used to a long time ago. Counting the fact that this was his seventy-fourth soul collection, this should have been a routine. No, it wasn't the fight itself that made him anxious. Then what was it?
'You gotta remember the entrance Ludwig! It needs to leave a huge impression on the enemy! Use one of the eighty-nine poses I tought ya!'
"Yes, I know." 'I'm never going to use them though.' He thought to himself secretly.
The monster, or the technical term, evil human was preoccupied licking the gore from its claws when he struck. Leather met skin, making as the creature howl in pain.
"Are you Cobel, the Golden Venger?"
Beady eyes narrowed, the fangs slowly moved, gnashing and spitting, trying to articulate actual words. "You don't have to reply, I already know the answer." With that the hunt began.
It was a one-sided fight. Even before the beast charged, the long whip struck, leaving gashes in the offender's skin. As soon as the monster stumbled, the whip coiled around one of the horns. With a sharp tug, the thing crashed to the ground. Within moments the monster imploded, leaving trails of black smoke and a floating red orb. Ludwig smiled inwardly, having beaten his personal record by 0.2 seconds. Then he stiffened.
A glinting silver knife had buried itself in his right shoulder.
This is the longest chapter I have ever written so far! I have no idea how it happened, it just grew on its own.
I have a test coming up so I can't update for some time. Sorry!
