Chapter 4
Unpleasant meetings
Youre right! I am already done with the forth one! Thank you all for all your comments, I really appreciate it! Anyways, someone said that my character was confusing, and hey! She is! (thanks by the way :D) I know that Im not really good at describing a character phycologcally, so these comments are great! The thing about Zara, is that I have tried to make someone who tries her best to surpress her anger and hatred so she wont go completley insane, which is a bit difficult to explain (Geee....now Im pathetich...trying to defend muself heh....?) I am just trying to give an impression of someone who refuses to be weak and let something else take over.
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN GAKUEN ALICE; ONLY ZARA IS MY CHARACTER
Right then......
I really.....
Don`t want to go inside this door......
....
But I have to.....
I might get in trouble if I refuse.......
hm.......
When even that young boy didn`t want to enter.......
....
This isn`t good.....
....
She hesitated... Her hand rested on the door handle. This door... led to the dangerous ability class. Her heart pounded....Wait?...Her heart was pounding?! This was not good.... Slowly she lent weight on her hand and the door slowly opened, and she walked in.
The room looked normal enough... Windows...even though they were covered in curtains. Lights.. desks....chairs....and students... many students... ten? Fifteen? Maybe she was late. Anyways...that didnt matter much... They were all standing in a circle. Again she hesitated... They were looking at her casually.
All of these have dangerous abilities..... Hm.....
Her face wore an expressionless facada (wow....bummer) and she walked slowly to stand by the wall and rested her back at it with her arms crossed, staring at the celing.
She heard whispers, low whispers. Not a suprise. No one actually knew her abilities, and yet, they didnt dare to speak lowly about her, because after all, they were "dangerous" too.... She noticed even a small child sitting on one of the chair. His face just as expressionless as her own, sitting there...doing nothing..
So young.... she thought. What things can he do that makes him "dangerous"
Not even a minute passed, until another door creaked open..
Suddenly Zara felt a dark, dangerous presence, and she felt like her lungs were getting crushed. She didnt move, didnt flinch, didnt even turn her head against the door.
Complete silence....
This presnece is familiar.....but where? Zara couldnt reconice it....
" I see we have a new student in class......"
Zara turned her head towards the sorce of the talking.
The dangerous ability class teacher.
The dark presence.
She felt her eyes furrow slightly.
This man wore a long black coat, black pant, had messy, black hair and a white mask covering his eyes. Zara also noticed, he had many alice suppresing items, many rings and earclips were visible, and she guessed his mask also were a suppresor. She understood it quite well.... This man had a dangerous and unstable alice ability.
She didn`t answer him. Just kept her gaze at him, still with her expressionless face.
....
"Hey...Whats her ability then?"
Zara snapped her gaze at one of the girls. She looked like she was the same age as a elementary student, but there was just something in her face that made Zara uncomfertable.
All the other students stared at her now. Zara didnt move an inch. Even their black-on-black teacher seemed to be listening.
Zara let her gaze fall to the ground.
A short pause.
Then she looked up again. Fierce and stubborness burning in her golden eyes.
"I have no further interest in telling you what my abilites are. I am only here to learn how to controll them. I have no use for showing them off to you like I was some kind of entertainment.
All went quiet.
All the students shut their mouth, except the girl.
"That is no excuse! Stop acting so high and mightly! You dont have the rights to hide it from us, you know that! Stop acting like a bi*"
"Students.. would you please enter the other classroom and let me talk to the new student alone.."
The girl stopped midsentenced and sent a wide eyed stare at the teacher. She seemed quite suprised. The teacher had a small smile, as all the students turned around and left Zara alone with the strange man.
When the last student, who seemed to be the loud mounthed girl, was about to close the door, she sendt Zara a warning glare, making Zara hear the name Luna in hear head.
I see.... she thought... Not even bothering about thinking about a comment to her.
The door closed slowly, leaving them alone.
Zara went quiet, no bloody way she was gonna talk to this creep first.
"So.." He said.
"Your name."
Pause.
"Zara." Zara felt herself stiffen a bit under his glance. This guy was really creepy.
" I see." He nodded slightly.
"Well thats a start... Persona." He said and gave her a light nod with his head. Was he mocking her..?
" Very well. Welcome to the dangerous ability class. I am sure that you dont know the reasons for this class but actually...."
" Students from the dangerous ability class are sent out to misssions for the school. Dangerous or not.. students here are mostly forced to do them, am I right?"
Zaras sendt Persona a small, evil smile. (you go girl!)
Persona didnt say a word until; "Hn...I guess it was excpected since youre actually teaching at this school, still it leaves us the main question..."
"You want to know what my alice is...." Zara straighened up from the wall and rested her arms down.
"Yes. Correct."
"Whats yours?"
Zara saw that Persona didnt like that question. He didnt move or show any change of expression, but she could feel a change in the air around him. He waited. It seemed like he was thinking about what to do... Like he was unsure abour showing it to her or not...Then he started walking towards one of the curtains, and stopped in front of it. He reached out his and, and touched it with his fingers. Zara watched. What was gonna happen now..?
Suddenly the area of where Persona had touched turned into ashes and fell down slowly to the floor. Unwllingly, her eyes widened, and she flinched.
"The mark of death. That is my alice"
Personas lips tugged into a smile as he turned around and walked towards Zara. " If I want, everything I touch, dies." He walked closer. His footsteps sounding suddenly loud inside Zaras ears. She didnt move. Didnt dare and didnt want to show him weakness.
He moved so close he could touch her with his arm if he would. And he did. He reached up his hand and lifted it up to her face, almost touching her with his fingers on her forhead. She felt her heart make a jump out of suprise. She refused to move, and she tried her best not to shiver. But the thought at his power and the sudden closeness worried her. She felt the tip of her finger slightly shake, and in repay she sent the man in front of her a warning and threatening expression.
A low chuckle escaped his lips. Amazed. She actually didnt show fear even though she knew he was dangerous..
It felt like ages before he moved again.
He lowered his hand and took a couple of steps backwords, giving her space again. She laid her arms i cross after something that seemed like hours.
"Now you know mine." He said. "Now show me your powers." Zara stiffened. Now what? She really didnt want to show, or tell about what raged inside of her. Not at all. She sighted loudly, shocking her head.
"I really...really dont want anyone to know about my powers." She lifted her head and stared at him again. " I know quite well about the elementaire headmasters intentions.." Now THAT suprised him. How could she know that?
"Still. You will have to show me. As the teacher here in you class it is absolute. Or you might never learn to controll these powers. I heard from Narum-sensei how he found you."
Zaras eyes widened and she gritted her teeth, turning her head away. "Khh..!"
She suddenly turned her heal and quickly walked towards the door. Persona did not stop her. She stopped when her hand was resting on the doorhandle. She spoke; " My powers...Are mixed...." Persona listened carefully. "Some of them I have had since birth, other I have recived all out of sudden. They bring destruction, pain, desperation and salvation....." Her hair covered her eyes as she spoke. " I did not wish for them... neither will I discard them...And if I lose completley control of them" She opened the door and sent him a deathglare. " I might end up doing more then just harm myself..." She turned herself around again. " I have said to much, remember it well." Zara closed the door quietly behind her and started walked out, leaving the class behind. She didnt stop walking until she was deep inside the northern woods. She knew quite well that the other teachers had said not to wander off away from their eyes.
Screw it.
She sat down, resting her back on a great tree.
Pain.
Damnit it hurt!
She bit down on her lower lip so hard she begun to bleed, and tried to supressed her shaking. She almost..Almost! Lost her controll when that maniac showed his power, and by talking about her own powers, her memories had been burning her from the inside, feeling like them crushed her from the inside. She was sweating. She had to learn how to proper controll it, she had to!If not.... She dug her fingernails into the roots of the tree. She took several deep breaths..trying to calm down... she would have to speak with this Narumi again....
Why....?
Why am I not able to controll it?!
....
Damn it!
