Love is Hard to Repair
A/N: Hi! I know, very long, but I won't delay you guys any longer, here's chapter 7!
Chapter 7: Cherita Alonzo
NORMAL POV
After the gunshot, the participants shot out like bullets, trying to figure out how to get out of the rune barriers first though.
"Heh, this will be so easy, I have the decoding alice, and I can just decode this and get out, no problem at all." Gemma smirked at the other contestants before she started decoding the barrier.
"One second she's mad and the next she looks like she just finished eating hundreds of sugar, making her go crazy, is she bipolar or maybe…no way…but…no, maybe, maybe she's mental?" Dominique spaced out when suddenly Doriane slapped her at the back.
"Would you mind our own business, we need to get out of here too, you know, so think up of something. I can't just do all the thinking here." Doriane shouted.
"And here's another bipolar one, great, I'm surrounded by mental patients." Dominique thought but thought up of something anyway.
Not only were Dominique and Doriane thinking, but the others also were thinking of different methods to get out. Gemma already left, she was already probably near the island. Antonio couldn't get out, he still couldn't get what the ruins meant, the base of his alice wasn't just trained enough to understand this. All of them were in deep thought, when suddenly, a maniacal laugh snapped them all out and apparently, it came from Abalone.
"Mwhahahahahahahahaha…"
Everybody who was present, who saw, who heard and who felt it looked at her. Even the "TEG" and Gemma, who was now about to get her "item", and somebody else in the island, looked at their backs and stared at the boat; which was about five miles away or so; for a while.
"Um Abalone, why are you laughing? You're looking kind of creepy and everybody's probably thinking the same thing." Melanie, the transferee from Greece, who was also Abalone's best friend and partner-in-crime, said.
"Hush, my dear Greek female best friend-"
"You can just say Melanie, you know…" Melanie thought, who was turning a light shade of red since everybody was looking at them.
"We all know that both of us are "TEG" fans and always read their weekly magazines-
…
Somewhere in the island/ around here somewhere…
"We have weekly magazines?" (Mikan)
"Where in the world did she get those?" (Cary)
"I never even heard of us having magazines!" (Vanilla)
"HARRY, LORENZO, COSMO, CHRISTOPHER!" (Everybody except mentioned and Lesly)
""Wa-wait! We can expla-" (People going to be killed)
"It's-" (Harry)
"Well…" (Lorenzo)
"No money…" (Cosmo)
"A trick?" (Christopher)
"What?" (Everybody who's going to kill the mentioned)
"My gastronomical satiety admonishes me that I have arrived at a state of deglutition inconsistent with dietic integrity." (Guess who? Lesly)
…
"Mikan?" (Everybody who's confused)
"Sigh…she said 'I've had too much to eat.'" (Mikan)
"Oh, wait a minute, Lesly, are you eating my choco banana cake again?" (Vanilla)
"NOOOO! Stop your self-regarding intentional points of view and provide I for one the enchanting scrumptious lip-smacking choco banana cake!" (Take a guess…Lesly)
"Self-regarding?" (Shannon)
"I for one?" (Ricardo aka Rick)
"Enchanting?" (Wanda)
"Scrumptious?" (Ren)
"Lip-smacking?" (Chloe)
"CHOCO BANANA CAKE?" (Everybody who's bewildered)
…
"Mikan?" (Everybody who's confused)
"What she means to say is that 'Vanilla, stop being so selfish and give me my yummy choco banana cake.'" (Mikan)
"Ohhhhh…" (Everybody who now gets it)
"LESLY!" (Vanilla)
"VANILLA!" (Lesly)
"This conversation is going nowhere…" (Mikan)
"I agree." (People who agree)
…
Back to the "Boat of Chance"
…
"Since I always read their weekly magazines, I know most about them, even about how to figure out their ruins." Abalone said then took Melanie's hand and dragged her to the ruins and the next thing everybody knew, they were already using their alice to get to the island.
Well, that sure was interesting…?
…
Time passed: 5 minutes
Participants able to get out: 4 participants
"You know guys; I am getting bored here…" Holographic Mikan said, appearing out of nowhere.
Sighing, Holographic Mikan said "Here's a clue, this boat was arrived at by me, was observed by me, and was duly overtaken by me, making it seem like me."
After a moment of silence, nobody said anything.
"Well?"
Sigh…You guys are hopeless.
…
Time passed: 8 minutes
Participants able to get out: Still 4 participants
"AHA!" Everybody looked at the source of the noise, which was from Antonio.
"I figured out the ruins and what the clue Mikan gave…"
After scribbling something in his somewhat notebook or whatever, he was able to get out, but before that, parting words were said.
"…Bye losers."
Well, that was kind of him.
I'm going to make him my first victim.
Good luck, Antonio.
Hey, where's Cherita? I haven't seen her since the beginning of the game, but I know she's one of the participants. Oh well, she better not make any trouble!
…
Time passed: 10 minutes
Participants able to get out with strategies…and information: Only 5 participants
When everybody became silent, a deep voice suddenly was heard.
"The barrier shall now be lifted."
After a few seconds, the barrier was gone and everybody jumped to the water.
Doriane, with the help of his sister, rode with the water.
Ella was just swimming.
Torence, who was a Scottish transferee student, teleported to the island.
Since they were all so occupied, they didn't realize that the ranking was already posted.
Ranking:
1st: Cherita Alonzo
2nd: Gemma Martin
3rd: Abalone Vena
4th: Melanie Urchavick
5th: Antonio DeLaCruz
6th: Torence Kingseign
7th: Dominique Belizaire
8th: Doriane Belizaire
9th: Denzel Allan Dominos
10th: Ella Ionesco
...
Somewhere in the island/ around here somewhere…
"Hey, I thought Gemma was the first one?" (Chloe)
"Yeah, me too." (Shannon)
"I'm confused as all of you guys." (Ria)
"Yeah, I mean, she was the first one we got to see to go outside the barrier; we all saw her; and I doubt that Mikan made a mistake and accidently left one out." (Rica)
"You guys are wrong." (Mikan)
"What do you mean? You saw it too, right? Gemma was the first, and she did it impressively also." (Louwie)
"Mikan's right. You guys are wrong." (Kyouta)
"Is that you, Kyouta?" (Everybody who's shocked)
"Hn." (Take a guess; I'm pretty sure you know)
"Yup, that's Kyouta. I'd know his universal answer anywhere. I'd know it anywhere." (Cosmo)
"Back to the topic, how come it was Cherita first? Honestly, I didn't even see her." (Clarisse)
"That's the point, idiot." (Take another guess, I know you know)
"Huh?" (Everybody who's confused)
"Clarisse, you just answered your own question." (Mikan)
"What?" (Clarisse)
"Mikan, just explicate to everybody by what means did Cherita Alonzo acquire the leading rank and what technique did she proceed with to be able to escape the vision of all our eyes and not yours or Kyouta's." (You know…)
"What I mean is that Cherita deserves to be first. Before the game, did any of you see her?" (Mikan)
Everybody shook their head. (All of them are in hologram form somewhere now, the last conversation wasn't, they were chatting through telepathy last time.)
"My point exactly, but we all knew there were 10 participants already, right? Question is how? Well, that's easy, through Vanilla, Rica, Lesly and Linda of course. We all know nobody can get away with anything other than me out of those four. Vanilla could feel through the vibrations and movements while they were inside the building that they were 10 of them. Rica could listen to the steps they each took and since she's already in base 8, she can distinguish whose, and how many. Lesly's knowledge alice says it all and Linda's eyesight is even worthy to rival anybody, including me, but she can't see through alices is one of the disadvantages of it though." (Mikan)
Nobody dared to interrupt Mikan.
"But how come you guys didn't notice her when she left the boat? It's simple, her alice." (Mikan)
"Her alice?" (Chloe)
"Now that you do mention it, what is her alice?" (Shannon)
"Her alice is the alice of-
…
At the island…
…
"AHHH!"
…
Somewhere in the island/ around here somewhere…
"What was that?" (Rick)
"Linda, what's happening out there?" (Mikan)
Linda's eyes became distant for a while then she came to her senses.
"Dominique and Doriane went into cave C, the cave where you have to find another opponent, and their opponent was Cherita." (Linda)
"That doesn't explain the scream, Linda!" (Wanda)
"No way!" Linda's eyes became distant again.
"What's wrong?" (Christopher)
"That can't be possible, Linda." (Lorenzo)
"What's not possible?" (Mint)
Holographic Mikan suddenly disappeared.
"Minrover, Lucille, one of you better explain right now why Mikan suddenly went there or I'll chop your heads off." (Kyouta)
Linda and Lorenzo suddenly looked terrified and a bit of guilt.
"Dominique Belizaire is dead."
…
A/N: Chapter finished… How do you guys like it so far? Please review!
I'm just kidding, continue reading…
…
"What do you mean she's dead?" (Vanilla)
"That's exactly what I mean. She's not alive-"(Linda)
"No she's not; she's still alive, but barely." (Mikan)
"Mikan, what is going on?" (Harry)
"Never mind that, Kyouta, Rick and Clarisse come with me. Linda, I want eyes on everyone. Lesly, when I come back, come with me immediately. Everybody else, act and stay calm, pretend that nothing has happened. We can't let the other participants be part of this situation. I made sure nobody other than us seen, heard, felt, what just happened. The others are still unaware of what just happened, even those who are watching through the television. I'll tell you later at the end of the day, for now, do what I just said." (Mikan)
Everybody nodded.
...
MIKAN'S POV
I knew from the start she was dangerous, but I didn't think she was already at this base to do something this horrible! And to think the girl I'm talking about is just a few feet away from me!
Focus, Mikan! Everybody's panicking already, you need to stay calm. I took a deep breath then sighed.
How did things turn out like this? Why did things turn out like this?
After fifteen minutes, Kyouta, Rick and Clarisse arrived. Their reactions when they saw what happened to Dominique were expected though. Anybody would be terrified. Even I was a bit shook up.
Clarisse covered her mouth by her two hands to stop from sobbing and her eyes were wide
"No way." Rick muttered under his breath, but Kyouta and I heard it perfectly.
Kyouta's eyes widened a bit and returned normal, but he still looked a bit wary.
I sighed. I turned my back on them. "Come on guys, let's go. Rick, use your alice to make Doriane unconscious and Kyouta."
Look after Cherita.
They both nodded. Rick showed Doriane, who was shaking in both fear and anger, but fear was dominating, something but I didn't care to see what it was, I was too preoccupied by looking at Cherita. She was looking at me like I was food or she was starved, but not by hunger. She was looking ready to kill me.
I tore away from her gaze and saw that Doriane was already unconscious. I looked at Clarisse and she immediately knew what it meant. She lifted Doriane and put him on her shoulder. This would have been funny, a guy about six feet and two inches being carried around by a five feet and four inch girl on her shoulder, if, and this is a huge if, if only we were in a different predicament.
"Let's go."
Kyouta, Rick and Clarisse nodded. I was at the front. Clarisse, carrying Doriane on her shoulder, was at my back-left. Rick at my back-right. Cherita in the middle, while Kyouta was at the back. We were making sure that Cherita wouldn't escape, but I doubted that she even wanted to. She looked just ready to kill again.
I was right, this batch was interesting, but not the interesting that I would have imagined.
