Bad choices
Disclaimer i do not own Akuma No Riddle and expect a couple updates soon. Please rate and enjoy.
"Stupid sun, stupid training, stupid morning. Isuke- sama can't live like this. Much less with an idiot meathead in charge. Why am i even doing this?" She thought as the first morning light interrupted her precious slumber. The vexed female pushed her sleeping partner off the bed as she stretched, a smirk planted on her face, knowing exactly why.
The woman on the ground groaned, being semi used to being thrown off the bed, stretching. Taking this opportunity to get a workout in until Isuke decided to use her back as a leg rest. "Are you done yet" The annoyed woman asked, wanting to get started on breakfast. "You're not going to stop complaining until I do so i guess." She replied, rolling her eyes. Who would have known that the two would stay together after the black class.
A couple rooms down the injured assassin was about to start the day by doing some push ups before a sharp pain in her arm reminded her that it would be impossible. Then angry woman punched the floor, accidentally waking up her sleeping queen.
"Tokaku, are you alright? You didn't hurt yourself did you? I didn't throw you off the bed did I?" The smaller woman was begging to worry. What if she had accidentally thrown her injured lover off the bed without knowing it or if her assassin had hurt herself doing her morning workout? The smaller woman had started to freak out a bit, rushing to her girlfriends side only to find herself annoying her protector some more.
"Ichinose, stop. Let me be damn angry for a second" She yelled, stressed from the whole situation they were in. The smaller woman backed away, sad with tears forming in her eyes. All she had ever been to the assassin had been a burden, always messing things up, since she was born.
Tear after silent tear were running down her rosy red cheeks, tired of always being a burden on everyone else until the upset assassin wrapped her arms around the crying woman.
"Both of my arms are wrapped around you, it hurts me physically but it hurts me more to see you cry because of me. Love is trying to make you partner smile even if it will hurt you, love is protecting who you care about the most. If you're feeling guilty about what happened in the cafe, don't be, just be happy that we're both here together now." The assassin looked away, thinking of the things she had just said. Never in a million years thinking that even she, would be loved. "Tch, you always get me to say such embarrassing things" she confessed. The smaller woman nuzzled her head in her preacius knights shoulder knowing that there was no other place like her arms. Warm, sturdy and always there to comfort her. The small woman felt better knowing that it was safe now. The past was in the past.
"Thank you Tokaku, I love you so much. I feel much better now but your arm. Please take care of yourself and let it heal." She replied, still worried if she had injured it some more. The assassin shook her head no, feeling better herself after comforting her sweet lover.
Minutes passed as the two held each other until the assassin planted a gentle kiss on her precious lover's forehead. "Let's make breakfast together, we'll have to go to training soon."
After breakfast the drill was the same, get to the academy with the fish still in the pond. Fish being the codename for Azuma Haru. The day would consist of more training for both women.
One would learn management of resources, leadership and manipulation while the other would train in the art of incendiaries, bombs, strategical planning and blueprints/ layouts of buildings. Today's class would be conducted by Kouko Kaminaga.
The structure of building was very important, if a certain device would be placed in an incorrect spot, the whole building would collapse. if placed correctly, success would be guaranteed. Blueprints were very important too. Knowing every exit, entrance, elevator, and possible points of entry could also stop a target in its tracks or help secure them. It could be the difference between life and death but would be next to nothing to the untrained eye, a simple yet extremely useful skill to possess but it took patience.
The assassin would get annoyed easily after wrongly identifying weak points from the strong ones. She felt the stress accumulating, knowing that failure would result in death. A death that would be very much in vain if it was due to failure. Trying to focus, the assassin looked down at her hand, her ring a grim reminder of what failing would take away from her. Knowing that failing would insure her death, never to be able to touch her lovers smooth warm skin or kiss her sweet lips. Never to witness her smile or be able to smell her refreshing aroma. She exhaled and focused once more, placing all the information she had just received into her work.
A headache and a couple hours later, the woman had finally successfully passed the what seemed to be, overly complicated lesson. Exiting the room to find her lover and three other assassins guarding her while she waited.
"It's about damn time, and here i thought you might not have been as stupid as i thought you were." The sadistic assassin preached, finally standing up along with Haruki. "You can have your pet back, we're going to the cafeteria." She added while walking away.
The assassin glared, her hand reaching towards one of her throwing knifes, knowing that she could kill the wretched woman without even breaking a sweat if she wanted too. More annoyed than usual, she calmed down as the assassin who had taught todays lesson left accompanied by Suzu Shutou who had also been with Haru talking while those two finished off the lesson.
Calming her ill temper, they too made their way to the cafeteria; beat after an exhausting day of training. After finally returning home, the women took a bath together then collapsed on the bed. It had truly been an exhausting day for them both. It was about damn time for the day to end.
