Me: So we be back hi sorry it took forever sorta…Neru here kept her word and…worked me to the bone…
Neru: Well I keep my word as always and so does Haku
Haku: Hai! I kept Ne-Ne from killing Setsuna-chan!*Proud*
Me: And I thank you for that Haku cause Neru was close to killing me by over working…
Neru: Well if ya weren't slackin' off constantly I wouldn't have to do that!
Me: Well…ok fine I won't slack off for the next chapter and I said this once and I'll say it again sorry for the inconvenience this has caused but I hope you understand and continue to read this
Haku: Setsuna-chan has been working hard for this so I think she deserves the support
Neru: But we should stop stallin' and start the story y'know
Me: Well you two go ahead I gotta keep up the writing so I can get to up loading new ones! But first~ different dialog appears so to not confuse y'all here's how it will go Neru care to explain?
Neru: Sure I don't mind the different types of dialog are:
Thoughts = which are always in Italic
Memory Thoughts = are in Italic and underlined
Memory Dialogs = are in quotations, in Italic and underlined
Regular Dialog = is always in quotations
Dream sequences = are all in bold letters even the dialog this does not involve Memory thoughts, dialog, or Flashbacks
Flashbacks = are all underlined even the dialog
Everything in *-* are in bold letters it's just noises and stuff it's the same in every other type of dialog
Me: And those should be it or at least until I add more but that shouldn't really be happening but I should get going Haku Neru start the story without me until I get back from writing!*Runs inside work room*
Haku: Ooo~! She's pumped up!
Neru: Cause it's her life if she starts to slack off again…

Neru: Right Setsuna owns nothing even if she wanted to
Haku: And we hope you enjoy this version more than the old one and continue to read this!
The Genius Delinquent and Shy Cat Girl
Chapter 1: Neru's POV: For When I First Met You I Saw An Angel
Time is money they say, there's no time left they say, don't waste your youth on stupidity they say, keep goin' to school and keep on studyin' they say…sorry for your lost, he was such a good person, don't let it affect you, live on for him…
"What do they know?"
I lay on top of the roof of my home lookin' up at the stars as the slightly cold wind blew over my face. I never minded the cold since I was little to the point of people would call me weird. But it never bothered me not then and not even now. Plus knowing that the wind would blow ever so calmly over the world would put me at ease. Still lookin' up at the sky I slowly closed my eyes to try and drift to sleep.
"You monster!"
"Murderer!"
"Killer!"
"Why did you do it?! You could have saved him and yet you let him die!"
"But I didn't do it! It wasn't me! Why won't anyone believe me?!"
"Lair! You know what you did!"
"I swear it wasn't me! It wasn't me!"
"You liar why did you let him die! What did you do?!"
"I-I don't remember I just know it wasn't me!"
"If you don't remember how do you know it wasn't you?! Confess you little rat! You murdered him with your own two hands!"
"Murderer, Murderer, Murderer!"
"…Neru…"
*CRACKLE! ZZZZTTTT! ROAR! CRASH! BREAK! CRACK!*
"Sorry but…it was too late…"
I jolted and sat up straight in a cold sweat and in fear addin' in my unsteady breathin' from my so called 'dream'. But I knew better I never dreamed anythin' not even about my future anymore since that day. It was all just memories playing over and over in my mind no one else knows and no one bothers to know. To everyone else it's all just a poor sad girl moorin' over the lost of a human life and can't get over it. To everyone it's just a good girl turned bad due to one incident all because she can't get over it followin' the bad crowd cause she can't get over it.
"Hah…They…hah all…hah…they all fuckin' know nothin'!"
I looked up at the sky only to see the night sky turn into day ever so slowly as the sun starts to rise. Standin' up I stretched out my arms and sighed as I got down from my roof before the land lord comes by and gives me an ear full. Landin' on the grass below I headed towards the front of the house and headed inside. I walked in my mess of a house headin' towards a kitchen I never use which was the cleanest thing in my household. I went over to the fridge and opened it only to pull out a small bottle of soda openin' it and drinkin' it.
With the soda in my hand I walked back out into the hallway and walked towards my room. I opened my room and was met with a mess of a room. Anyone else would say 'This looks like shit when was the last time you cleaned?' My response would be is a simple 'Who knows'. I stayed standin' outside my door as I gazed at it with mixed emotions.
"Hey Neru you should clean more y'know?"
"Nah, you'll continue cleanin' for me won'cha?"
"Pfft, until I move out that is but I'll make sure you learn how to clean before I leave"
"Ahaha! Good luck wit that!"
And yet you never did make me…did ya…
I gave a yawn and I went towards my bed. Puttin' the bottle of soda beside the bed and laid down in bed. But after I did I groaned in pain because sleeping on the roof takes it told after a while. I only just chanted a simple healin' spell and the pain left. Lookin' up at the ceilin' a few thoughts came to mind but I tried to brush it off. Only to successfully do it for a bit until those thoughts managed creep back up in my mind again.
Should I really go to school…? I really don't wanna…come to think of it how long has it been since I step foot inside class…let alone inside the school buildin'…?
I turned my head over to see the alarm clock on the shelf only for it read half pass eight. I kept on procrastinatin' to myself whether or not to go to school. Thinkin' of excuses to tell myself so I have a reason not to go but nothin' popped up. I tried to think of anythin' and this included my list of fights with other people but nothin'. My gamblin' matches but those won't be happenin' until next week so then came in my last option my 'travelin' schedule. Sadly I was low on cash to even go anywhere and I was sure the fuzz was on my tale for the last chaos I was in. So that was a no go and I didn't feel like sleepin' the day away today so the last option was…
"Fuuckin' shit school it is…god damit!"
I sat up and sluggishly got off the bed like a toddler who slept too late and didn't have the energy to get up. I walked over to my dresser and opened up one of the drawers to reveal whatever little clothin' I have left. At that moment I took off my shirt and unzipped my skirt and I threw my shirt on the floor as my skirt slid from my waist to the floor. I picked out a black pair of jeans and a white shirt that went under a yellow and black plaid shirt. Since my hair was already tied up in a side pony tail I left it like that and walked to the front door. Not even botherin' to grab a book at all not even somethin' to write with instead I put on my shoes and lifted up my right hand so it was right in front of me. It was only a few seconds later until a pair of keys shot out from the livin' room and hit the palm of my hand. I tighten my grip on my house keys and exited my house.
Hmm…should I run or should I walk or should I just skip all together…? Ugh no I said I would go…but I could just stay at the park with a sound barrier around me…
"To the park it is"
I started to walk towards the direction of the park when someone grabbed my shirt caller and pulled me. I grabbed their risk and was ready to flip `em over me but I stopped when I heard…
"Oh~ to the park now~ you DO have a day off from school now do you Neru…? Or are you skipping school AGAIN Neru you're not doing that ARE you RIGHT NERU…?"
SHIT!
"GEH! N-Nah…Ann where'd ya get that idea…I-I was just thinkin' where'd I'd go after y'know and I thought I'd go to the park ya know?"
"Hmm…then I'll drop you off since I'm heading that way as well I'm so happy I found you now I have some company"
"Y-Yea…glad to hear I could be of help…"
Fuckin' shit the one person I was hopin' to avoid…oh well at least she didn't give me an earful for sleepin' on the roof…
"Oh and can I see you before you head to the park?"
"Uh sure Ann but why's that?"
"Nothing much just wanting to give you your earful for sleeping on the roof again that's all"
Why's it always gotta end up like this?!
I gave out an annoyed sigh as I walked along side Ann towards the school. We had some idle chatter as we walked slowly to school but not as slow as I would have hoped. We made it to the school grounds as Ann told me to go inside. This is when I knew Ann wanted to make sure I went inside the school and not BS her which was what I was gonna do. But that went out the window in a matter of seconds so I did as I was told. I walked towards the front doors slower than a snail tryin' to sprint towards the direction of its food. Shitty enough Ann wasn't havin' none of my BS and told me to walk faster or she was gonna drag me inside the school and into class. So of course I wasn't gonna test that shit cause she's done it before not to me but the result was the same none the less. But…that never stopped me from pushin' someone's buttons to its limits before and it ain't stoppin' me now.
"Fine! I'll go to class but can ya at least spare me the lecture for after I come back from the park or is that not negotiable?"
"NERU I SWEAR IF YOU DON'T STOP STALLING I WILL DRAG YOUR ASS INTO YOUR CLASS!"
Well she reached her limit faster than I had hoped…
"Yea no I ain't testin' that shit for the life of me see ya later Ann!"
I darted off towards the school doors so I don't die and entered only to see empty hallways. Of course it wasn't completely empty there was the normal group of the so called 'Delinquents'. Then the occasional couple basically havin' sex with their clothes still on in some dim lighted area. So I pretty much rolled my eyes and puked every time I'd see a couple doin' the deed. I kept on walkin' towards the end of the hallway until I reached my class that's when I slammed open the door wide.
*SLAM!*
"Ah…Akita…hah…would you like-"
"Don't bother Sensei I don't plan on joinin' ya on anythin' so continue your shitty lesson without me"
Sensei gave a sigh and motioned for me to walk over to my seat. Which I did way before he did motioned towards me and as I walked over to my seat I gave a huge yawn. I sat in the back away from the stupidity of everythin' like always. Pullin' out the chair I plopped down and laid my head down and basically slept throughout all of class. When I woke up it was the end of class so I got up and headed out the door when my bitch of a Sensei decided to say
"Akita let's talk for a bit"
Fuckin' hells bells! Why is it that today is goin' so FUCKIN' shitty!
"What now? Don'cha see some of us ain't got time for this shit"
"Well I was just going to ask would you like to gain some time studying for the test here after school because I have no problem helping you with that"
"Oh yea suure I so wanna stay in this place for more than I have to ya know? Y'know why not keep me after class too! Make me die of boredom in a matter of seconds"
"Akita that was not my intent I'm just worried you are throwing away such a bright future with how smart you are"
Oh for fucks sake here we go again
"News flash I don't give a fuck `bout it anymore so go bother someone else who wants to spend some time with ya"
"I'm telling you I want to help why don't you just accept it you were so enthusiastic about everything until about a year or so ago when you slowly stopped attending class then you didn't want to pay attention in class you would get into fights what happened in the span of a year that made you change so much?"
"Hey Neru why don't you go read a book some time?"
"Nah nothin' catches my interest y'know?"
"Well what if I tell you I could find one or I already found one for you?"
"What no way? What's it called?"
"Well…that's a little tricky since it's from dad's library so it's one of a kind!"
"Hmm…does sound interestin' if it has no title wanna send some info `bout what's it all `bout?"
"Sure it's about…"
Different abilities…why am I rememberin' that now?
"It's none of your business so go do somethin' else with your life"
"But I just want to-"
"Help?! Yea no I heard that line more than once and every fuckin' time it's all a fuckin' lie so go fuck yourself I'm gone"
I walked away and slammed the door open and close then just walked around the school buildin'. Walkin' around I tried to avoid most of the guards' but that was easier said than done every time I would escape from one another one would be on my tail. It was only a split second but I saw a flash of white when I passed by a class when runnin' away from some guards. I paid no mind but it caught me off guard for enough time for someone to catch me. Shitty enough it did happen by none other than…
"Shit…Fox Rope huh, Lily?"
"I wouldn't get to cocky Neru but I'm assuming you aren't going back into class are you?"
Time to push some buttons makes it better that it's Lily's
"Nope. Care for some company Seito-kai?"
"Hah…you can stay in the council room but I'm putting you to work that's my only condition"
"What?! Are you really gonna make me your mail dog?"
"Yes it's that or you're now going to class if not you're screwing up your probation and you'll head to jail"
"Murderer!"
Dam…I'm amazed I ain't already in there to be honest especially when it all went down
"Jokes on ya I really don't care whether I end in jail or not but I rather not think of a way to escape it so I'll take the ladder and work for you instead"
"You never learn do you Neru?"
"Of course not but get me outta this Fox Rope will ya before everyone thinks we're doin' somethin' kinky"
Lily denied it a bit but the light blush on her face was undeniable so I took it as win for my teasin'. Lily obviously untied me right then and there while I laughed at her embarrassment. Lily wasn't havin' this so she glared at me as if sayin' you're dead. She then dragged me back to the council room and chucked me inside the room. Of course I looked around to see Kasane Teto in her seat readin' some papers and Yukari who was on the computer typin' somethin'.
"Hm? Oh Neru-chan long time no see welcome back to the student council room! You know you should-!"
"Don't ask me to join the student council Teto cause I ain't joinin' not even if ya paid me"
"Is the delinquent back? Lily I know you are the president but you really shouldn't help her not to mention using this place to hide her mistakes"
"Well shit hello to you to Yukari"
"Yukari I understand you don't like what I'm doing but it's better like this than us going to the Director saying we have to call in the police let alone getting a call saying 'Akita Neru has escaped from her jail cell' and we have to look for her"
"In which you'll never find me just saying"
Yukari glared at me from her computer screen and Lily bonked me in my head. It didn't really hurt so I laughed it off but what did hurt were the packets of paper that Yukari had thrown at me. Then Teto had handed me another stack of packets in my hands right after Lily did the same. In this moment in time I became known as the student council's mail dog. Thankfully I knew no one other than those in the student council would use that name. But it was only a few minutes into the 'job' and I was sent goin' from one side of the buildin' to the other side. Not gonna lie it was tirin' but it was better than goin' to class. I went back towards the student council room and opened the door lookin' tired as hell.
"Shit why am I bein' sent all over the fuckin' place!?"
"Do you want to go back to class?"
"Fuck no!"
"Then face the consequences Neru now here take this to the Home EC class and then go make copies of this and while you're at it give this to the director"
"Now…?! Can I at least take a break for a bit!?"
"When you come back from what I told you to do yes you can but now go do what I told you to do now!"
Fuckin' bitch! You're so fuckin' lucky I don't wanna go back to class!
"Oh and if you want you can take whatever food the Home EC class has made just ASK if you can don't just take it"
…Bitch…she at least redeemed herself time to go steal some food from the Home EC class
"Fine I'll be back in a bit"
I walked off towards the direction of the copy room to make copies then went to the Directors office to give him whatever Lily gave me. I walked back to the council room to drop off the copies then walked right back out to head over towards the Home EC class. I took the long way over to the class since I WANTED to take a break but Lily denied it. So I wanted some payback for it and she'll have to wait until I get back and it'll be a plus for me since she said I'll get to take a break. So I get to have a double break now.
Ugh…I regret comin' to school if I would've known Lily would be makin' me a mail dog I would've never came to school
It was only a few rooms away from the Home EC class when I started to smell of something sweet. I started to play a game with myself tryin' to guess what it was before I got inside the room. I guess on so many different things as I got closer it was a smell I was all too excited for. I walked closer to the room and the smell only confirmed my initial thought. I went and opened the door of the Home EC class and throughout the entire room was the smell of…
Cheese cake!
"Akita-san you're never around the school what business do you have in the Home EC room?"
"Well not me more like with the student council prez she wants me to give ya this"
"Oh this! Well can you give her this and this oh and give her this too"
What's with this stupid amount of stuff?! Fuck I'll never be able to steal a cheese cake! Today really is gone to shit…!
"Hmm…come to think of it it's just about time for lunch…well how about you take some cheese cake for the student council!"
How the hell am I suppose to that shit when both my hands are full!?
"Yowane-san can you come here for a moment I need your help with something!"
Sensei had called over someone but I didn't really care as long as I got some cheese cake. That was my train of thought at the moment. But when I first saw her…cheese cake didn't even matter anymore it was just become an afterthought in a matter of seconds. Her snow white hair was in a low pony tail in a black and purple bow. She wore a grey cardigan along with a black shirt and purple tie that was loosed up. Then her black and singled stripe of purple yoga pants with some light grey boots. But the most beautiful dam thing `bout her was her ruby red eyes that were like gems. Not gonna lie her body was a good plus but for me it was her eyes more than anything that was the best.
"Is that ok with you Akita-san?"
Shit what?! Fuck it
"Yea sure whatever"
"Good well Yowane-san you can go with her and you may head to lunch since class is about to end"
Shit wait hold it what I wasn't payin' attention what!?
The white haired girl nodded and went to grab her cheese cake along with some plates and silverware. Only to come back by my side and she smiled shyly and my heart just exploded it immediately went three hundred miles an hour. I didn't say anythin only because I was hidin' the blush that crept up my face. We both walked out the classroom and we both said nothin' not a single fuckin' word not one and it drove me insane. But I was just happy I could walk along side a girl like her who has become my crush at first sight. Which I found super fuckin' corny as hell but not gonna lie I was glad it did happen the only annoyin' part was we literally couldn't talk to each other. So the whole way of walkin' to the student council room was awkward as hell at least for me. Who knows what went through her mind but I died on the inside durin' this walk.
"Yo Lily I'm back!"
"Welcome back…did the teacher of the Home EC class give you anything?"
"Are ya blind now? I'm carryin' stacks of fuckin' paper of course Sensei gave me somethin' for ya"
"Ugh also Neru…please tell me you didn't steal anything from the Home EC class?"
I was gonna do that but I won't tell her that she doesn't need to know
"No I didn't I ain't that desperate to eat somethin' from the Home EC class"
Even if it was cheese cake
"Anyway did you bring anything from the Home EC class?"
"How `bout ya look up from the computer and find out for yourself and here's the papers they gave ya and I call dibs on the bean bag chair cause now I can take a break from the stupidity ya had me go through"
"If Yukari sees you sitting on her bean bag chair you're dead you know that right?"
"Let her try I love a challenge!"
I heard Lily give a sigh and finally looked up from her computer screen to see me and the beautiful girl beside me. Lily gave an apology for her rudeness and apparently for whatever nonexistent nonsense I did. I wanted to tell Lily to fuck off but I couldn't do that with my crush right here so I just walked over to Yukari's bean bag chair and said nothin'. Lily went over to my crush and asked somethin' I didn't expect her to do and it just made me die of happiness and out of a heart attack.
"Want to stay so you can have a slice of cheese cake?"
Fuck I can't hear her answer that means she motioned her answer did she say no? Did she say yes? Fuck-!
"Great you can take a seat anywhere in the room and again sorry for the lazy delinquent that's on the bean bag chair over there"
Lily I swear to everythin'!
"Neru can you come with me for a bit I need your help finding Teto, Yukari, IA and Gumi"
"Wait what `bout SeeU she ain't here or what?"
"She called in sick unlike someone who would just skip school so no she's not around now let's go"
Way to fuckin' make me feel even worse around my crush that I just met…! Wait hold it find…? Can't she just…
I looked over at Lily and her evil grin said it all she knew I had a crush on the white haired busty girl. It also made me realize why Lily had asked her to stay. I wanted to punch her just to shut her up but I wanted to hold back a bit and hear her plans. I walked over towards Lily and went outside the room with her. Obviously the whole help me find the others was a lie since she made Fire Clones in seconds and sent them on their way.
"So you like her huh Neru?"
"Shut it…if you're here to tease me `bout it I'll make ya shut up by force"
"Not even I'm here to help the both of us"
I don't get it both of us…?
"You're face says you don't get it but let me explain"
Please do
"Despise the way your crush looks she's not the most studious tries her hardest I'm not denying that but she has one of the lowest grades in the school"
"…Huh…not gonna lie that's kinda unexpected but how is this gonna help the BOTH of us?"
"Well you really shouldn't be asking that because I'm positive you know where this is going"
"Do I?"
"Yes you do stop playing dumb you're gonna help me get her scores up you have the highest score in the school and stop denying it cause you do"
"That's only helpin' ya Lily how does it help me?"
"Well all I'm doing is giving you the opportunity to spend time with her that's all but of course the relationship status you want is up to her and how she feels about you I'm just helping you so she gets to know you better that's all"
"And if I say no to that what would you do?"
"One I know you won't say no to this opportunity and two if you do well I can always go for second best which is Kamui Gakupo despise his frap boy domineer and his oh-so I can make any girl fall for me stupid act he has good grades"
"And you know over my fuckin' dead body am I ever lettin' Kamui Gakupo NEAR her let alone help her study"
"Then it's settle you'll be tutoring her starting next week Neru"
"Yea and don'cha like playin' match maker even if you sometimes play dirty huh Lily?"
Lily grinned as I walked back inside the council room. Openin' the door I saw my crush sittin' near the bean bag chair I was sittin' at and oh how it made my heart race that she did that. But Lily's words kept ringin' in my ear and I didn't know how to do it. How was I gonna help someone who I can't talk to not to mention my nonexistent people skills. So I walked over to the bean bag chair and sat down closin' my eyes as I was lookin' up at the ceilin' as Lily came back inside with Teto, Gumi, Yukari and IA. I didn't bother to look at `em cause I could tell Yukari was already glarin' daggers at me for sittin' on her bean bag chair.
"Well time to eat some cheese cake before Yukari kills Neru over there"
"Holy shit I haven't had cheese cake in forever! Neru-chan you like cheese cake don't you?"
"Well she likes anything cheese wise"
Shut it Teto and Gumi y'all ain't one to talk!
I guess the oddity of me not retortin' back with my sharp words got everyone but Lily on edge. They all tried to get me to say somethin' but they all kept failin'. Of course this isn't talkin' `bout my inner temperament cause it was just below boilin' point. But I kept it in hella fuckin' hard to do but I didn't say a single word. It took a bit but they all stopped but their uneasiness didn't go unnoticed.
"Hey, Neru mind if I ask you a question?"
"Yea sure what's sup?"
"Why do you always clap back at people who start to annoy you or just say things about you?"
Can't really keep my temper on the DL…I guess…
*Poke Poke*
"What's sup Teto?"
*Poke Poke*
"Teto stop pokin' me will ya?"
*Poke Poke*
I opened my eyes and to my surprise I was met with ruby red eyes. I panicked and jolted up straight from the bean bag chair. And to my annoyance I could feel Lily's amusement grow at my sudden reaction which was the worse. I tried to ignore her but that shit was easier said than done either way I kept my eyes locked on ruby ones as she handed me a plate with a slice of cheese cake on it. As I took it from her she gave me a smile and I'm positive I blushed from her gesture.
"…Thank…you…"
"Neru is being nice?! Who the hell are you?!"
Bitch! Don't push it Teto!
"Dead ass who is she?! Neru would have killed us by now for our remarks both literally and figuratively"
And don't think you've escaped it IA and Gumi's death was long overdue!
"Yo Delinquent you ok? Do you want me to take you to the nurse? Cause you might have a cold?"
That's it Yukari ya asked for it!
I stood up and placed the plate on the main table everyone sat then glared at everyone. Only to growl at `em then I shot out lightin' blades at each of them. Each blade had brushed their skin close enough to cut them slightly to serve as a warnin'. They each got the message and stopped their remotes but I left either way cause I wouldn't be able to see my crush. Not with the way I acted not to mention Lily will most likely tell her right now. Walkin' through the hallways I…regret my decision for one reason only…well two but the first reason should be obvious the second reason is…
I didn't get to eat the cheese cake!
I continued to walk down the hall way until I reached a window that lead to outside and jumped through it. But I didn't think I was gonna regret it as quickly as I did. When I jumped out I instantly saw my angel. And I panicked when I shouldn't have and it didn't make it better that I finally heard her speak since I first saw her. But…it wasn't the best thing to hear at the moment since I lost my balance and was headin' for the ground floor head first while time felt like it slowed downed as I said.
"SHIT!"
*THUD*
"Fu-AucK! Shit! Ah that hurts more than I expected…!"
I groaned in pain for a bit before I sat up straight and looked up at the window were I basically jumped out of but failed the landin' miserably. Nice. Granted I got myself distracted by my crush and that's on me I'll take responsibility for that. But that payoff from the fall was large and painful but as always I sucked it up and got up. Sadly immediately right after I felt a shock of pain and I couldn't keep my balance and fell forward. I hit the ground face first and I couldn't care in the slightest so I stayed on the ground and closed my eyes.
Fuuuuuck! Ugh shit now I gotta chant the fuckin' strongest healin' spell I got well at least I gotta excuse to head home early…WOO! Hooray for injuries-!
*Poke Poke*
Fuckin' shit which idiot is this?
*Poke Poke*
Ugh! I swear!
*Poke Poke*
Do it one more time I fuckin' dare ya!
"Di-Did I kill her?! Did I just kill my tutoring teacher?! Oh my god what have I done!?"
Who's that?! Wait tutorin' teacher?! Fuck off it's not my crush is it?! Please say it ain't then again I never heard her voice before until a couple of minutes ago…
"Should I hide her body? Should I see if she's still alive? Would a healing spell work for this? Will I go to jail for this?!"
Quite the opposite in fact everyone would praise ya cause ya've got rid of the delinquent who everyone is goin' after constantly
I heard the white haired beauty start to pace back and forth in a panic as she continued to speak out loud in her frantic panic mode. As much as I wanted to get up and show her I was fine I couldn't really deny the pain I was in. So while I stayed on the ground with my eyes still closed I spoke up and it of course startled her.
"Eh!? Are you a ghost?! I'M SO SORRY DON'T HUANT ME I DON'T LIKE GHOST AND I DIDN'T MEAN TO KILL YOU!"
"Wait- No- I didn't die nor am I a ghost!"
"Eh…?"
"I'm the blonde short girl face plant on the ground with her eyes cl-"
*Poke Poke*
I sighed and opened my eyes grinnin' slowly. I looked at my crush and once I opened my eyes she beamed in delight and gave out a sigh of relief. Two seconds later she hugged me and in her delight of not bein' a murderer. I blushed obviously also I was tryin' to ignore the pain I was in. Cause why should I worry bout the excruciatin' pain I'm in when my crush is huggin' me. Priorities am I right?
I hope she never let's go…and she smells of vanilla and strawberries…
*Poke Poke*
"Yea wha'sup and verbalize your answer don't just poke me"
"Th-Then do me a favor…"
Before I could answer she let me go turned me around to face the other way and it sounded like she did the same. I was stunned by her sudden movement so I stayed facin' the other way starin' at the school buildin'. Not to mention the undyin' pain I was in that I couldn't heal myself at the moment and it took a bit but she eventually spoke up only sayin':
"I'm so sorry please forgive me for nearly killing you!"
"Eh- Oh- Nah it's my fault I got distracted"
"That's my point I distracted you"
"Of course ya didn't-! I-I mean I was just thinkin' of some stuff and well when ya call out I snapped outta my daze and figured out what I was doin'…I was apparently jumpin' out a window so…"
Why is it easier to talk to her this way?!
"Oh that's good…I thought I had killed my one and only tutor…"
Only tutor huh…so Lily never gave her a tutor…now I got some shit to talk bout with Lily…
"So Lily informed ya…when are ya free then? Ya know to get this started with"
And so can I look forward to it
"Oh um, uh tomorrow is good if it works for you?"
"Nah that's good is your place good?"
"Yeah no problem"
We stayed sittin' there not lookin' at each other as the conversation died it got kinda awkward. I wanted to just stare into her ruby red eyes but I didn't want to look desperate so I didn't say anything'. Instead I looked up at the window and saw all the different students walk by. I peeked over my shoulder I saw the white haired beauty start to use some magic. Purple light flashed out from her hands and then a cheese cake had started to appear.
Cheese cake!
"U-Um di- do um uh"
"Hm?"
My crush shoved the plate and silverware in front of me lookin' like she was ready to cry in her frantic panic. I didn't want her to cry but I didn't want to take what I'm assumin' is her slice of cheesecake her share. The share that I had left in my anger but I had accepted that so to take the slice made me feel bad. But the part of me that didn't want to make her cry won over everythin' so I took the cheesecake hesitantly.
"Sho- Can…I take uh…a bite…?"
*Nods Nods*
"Ya sure? I mean ain't this your slice from earlier? Don'cha want it?"
*Nods*
"So ya don't want it?"
The white haired girl had a face of panic as she waved her arms around frantically. I couldn't tell what she wanted to say so I gave her a confused look. The busty girl looked around and tried to come up with answer on how to respond. I stayed sittin' quietly until we both heard the next class bell ring and we had a moment of…
"…Ah…"
"…Uh…"
Lunch is done huh that was fast…faster than normal at least…
"…um…HaVe-ahem! I need t-to get…..class! Um-! Uh-!"
"Ah…!"
My crush shot up from the ground and started to run away but stopped when her back was fully towards me. She started to fumble with some of her words when she spoke but she had said what she said. Then she turned back around again only to bow and waved good bye then ran off to class. I stared at her as she disappeared around the corner. Lookin' at the cheesecake I took a small piece and ate it and that was the best fuckin' cheesecake I ate.
Holy fuckin' shit! This is amazin' I wonder who made this cause I gotta get `em to make this for me again!
"Ahhh~~~ that's so satisfyin' and good to the last bite! And time to go home then"
I got up from the ground and…that was my worst mistake. The pain I had completely forgotten `bout came back feelin' like I got shot ten times. Obviously I fell to the ground immediately chin first.
"Fack-! Cod damit! UGH!"
Healin' spell it is…!
I chant my healin' spell but it wasn't as strong since healin' ain't in my area of expertise. Thankfully it was strong enough for me to be able to move around a bit but not strong enough to completely remove the pain I felt. So I got up from the floor and took the now empty plate and put a protective spell so it doesn't brake along with the utensils. I stretched out my arms a bit tryin' to let loose a bit and then started to walk off towards the direction of my house.
Fuck I'ma feel this more tomorrow aren't I…? Well…at least I get to see a pretty girl tomorrow
"I guess it's worth it…"
"So skipping school was worth it huhNeru?"
Oh for fucks sake!
"A-Ann…! Hi…uh…"
"So Neru...? Care to explain?"
Ann had smacked me on the back with her hand as hard as she could and fuckin' shit was it hard to ignore. I had tried to not let it show on my face but it was hard as shit to do I'm pretty sure my face had a scrawl of pain written all over. Ann looked at me sighed then started to drag me home by the ear.
Great…
"Ow! Owowow! Ann! Hold it-! OW!"
"Who was it?"
"What d'ya mean?! 'Who was it-?!' OW! Shit Ann!"
"Don't play dumb with me Neru you got into a fight with someone that's why you hurt all around right? So who was it?"
"The hell it was no one! I didn't get into a fight! And why the fuck does it always have to conclude into 'Oh Neru got into a fight' the hell!"
"It's your fault for acting this way! Now hurry up I'm taking you to my house I have most of my medical supplies there"
"Right…thanks…like always…"
"No problem…BUT you won't get away from whatever stupidity you've done in school!"
"OW! WAI-! ANN! OW!"
Ann continued to drag me back to her place by the ear as she complained bout the number of times I came back to her place beat up and needed healin'. We both arrive to her place and headed inside. Ann's place was always filled with your everyday medical supplies but also she has things no medical place would have cause she would make `em herself. Granted nothin' she had could harm someone's health in anyway but cause logic to all heal and maybe some safety precautions it's illegal to make your own medical supplies and stuff.
Good job government nice this is what y'all do
"Neru go to the other room and I'll be back with what you need but you'll have to tell me what injuries you got so I know what to get"
"…Like hell you'll actually believe me-"
"Neru cut the crap"
"I fell out a window"
"…You're joking right…?"
"No…I jumped out a window and…got distracted so I couldn't stick the landin' and hit the ground head first…that's it"
Ann and I had a moment of silence and it was pretty awkward not gonna lie but after what seemed like forever Ann burst out laughin'. It was appreciated but not at the same time but I knew my face was bright red for tellin' her what had happened. And this ain't talkin' bout HOW or WHO got me distracted in the first place and I'll never say anythin'.
"Hey Neru when do think I'll get to meet the girl who stole your heart?"
"Don't start! …Plus I don't swing that way…"
"Oh yes you do swing that way! The looks you sometimes give the female models and ESPECIALLY when they're in swimsuits ya so swing that way~"
"Ugh f-fine! When the…time…comes I'll…introduce ya to her…so don't continue askin'!"
"I can't wait to see who Neru's girlfriend would be~!"
"Sh-Shut it!"
Huh…that's a memory…and I never got to introduce her to ya…
"…Not like I can get her to be mine…"
"Neru…who's this person you want to make your's?"
"Huh? Oh- Shit…uhh…no one…?"
Fuck the one thing I end up sayin' a loud is THAT!
"Uh-huh…right…I won't peer into your business but please don't go raping someone please"
"I AIN'T GONNA! OW! WHAT THE HELL ANN!"
"Stay still! Come on most of your body took a toll from that fall and not to mention the fact that you tend to sleep on the roof top made the fall feel worse for you so I'm fixing that plus the pain your feeling right now so Sit. Still."
I sat still tryin' not to anger Ann or make her question me any further and after bout an hour or so Ann was done patchin' me up. So I got up and stretched out my limbs so I ain't so stiff and then said bye to Ann so she doesn't question me any further. But she stopped me before I reached the door I turned around and she threw me a small container that was full of medical stuff.
That's an apothecary for ya has the right medicine for everythin'
"So I take this before I go to sleep right?"
"Hai looks like you know this by heart at this point"
"Yup anyway thanks Ann see ya-"
"Wait Neru"
"Yea wha'sup?"
"Why do you continue doing what you're doing?"
I looked at Ann in a confused way I tried to play dumb basically but I knew what she meant. It was a conversation we had a while ago but I ignored every word she had spoken. Maybe today wasn't my normal day I mean I got to meet a cute girl so obviously today ain't fuckin' normal. But I heard every word Ann had said and I already knew it was goin' to turn into THAT conversation. And I started to turn bitter over it.
"Neru come on you know he never wanted for you to turn out this way"
"Yea but HE should have thought `bout the consequences of leavin' me!"
"Neru he never chose to leave you! Come on you should change your ways Neru"
"Why…? Cause that's what HE wanted…well guess what? I ain't changin' my ways I act the way I fuckin' want leave it at that Ann…"
"…I knew you would say that…haa…what would he say if he saw you now…"
"Shut up Ann"
"Neru stop your nonsense!"
"He was so proud of you Neru…and yet…"
"Neru I'm so proud of you! You're a great lil' sis aren't you?"
"I said shut up!"
"Why couldn't you respect his wishes for you? He had high hopes for you…"
"Neru…promise me…"
"Neru…at least change for Nero's sake-"
"Sorry but…it was too late Nero is…"
"NERO IS GONE! FUCKIN' HE DIED BECAUSE OF OUR IGNERANCE AND MY LACK OF AN ABILITY TO SAVE HIM! I COULDN'T HEAL HIS FUCKIN' WUONDS CAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW A SINGLE HEALIN' SPELL! AND THE STUPID FUCKIN' DOCTERS COULDN'T DO JACK SHIT TO SAVE HIM! THEY DIDN'T EVEN FUCKIN' TRY! WHAT NOW ANN! HUH?! YA WANT ME TO TELL YA I HAD THE CHANCE TO SAVE NERO FROM DYIN' BUT I COULDN'T?! CAUSE OF MY LACK OF KNOWLEDGE ON HEALIN' SPELLS?! NOT EVEN THE SHIT THEY TOUGHT IN SCHOOL HELPED!"
"Neru…I'm sorry but you don't have to blame your self-"
"FUCK THAT IT'S MY FUCKIN FAULT! I TOLD HIM JOININ' THE GAMES WAS A GOOD IDEA I FUCKIN' PURSUADED HIM TO ENTER IT I'M AT FUALT! I TOLD HIM WE DON'T NEED HEALIN' SPELLS CAUSE WE'RE UNSTOPABLE! I TOLD HIM IT WAS FINE! AND LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENED! LOOK AT THE CAUSE OF MY IGNURANCE AND STUPIDITY!"
AND THE OTHER TWO DID NOTHIN' TO HELP INSTEAD THEY IN CURAGED US FUCKIN' UGH!
"Neru I-"
I never got to hear what she said at the end cause I left in anger and frustration. And slammin' the door behind me I basically nearly break it in the process. All my frustration came out and so I left to the one spot I go to which is also the place to where all hell breaks loose. It was a forest that's not much to the public eye so they don't really bother goin' near it. And then add my power outrage to that and everyone avoids it to all hell. I didn't walk nor did I run there I just teleported there a skill only mystics can master in weeks or days even. But it takes non mystics to learn it in years or not at all cause they're not skilled enough.
Stupid! It's my fault it always has been! I caused Nero his death it was all me!
I started to beat myself over everythin' involvin' Nero. I couldn't help it to be honest since his death I blamed myself for everythin' involvin' Nero. And it had turned into a 'what if' scenario 'If I did this' 'If I did that'. A 'What I could've done to prevent his death' is my mind set every time and it all comes back to me. I clenched my fists and looked around at my surroundin's and forest was all I could see greenery everywhere along with the left over traces of my last fit. Craters, burnt trees, broken trees, even the bits of pieces of rocks it was all still there. Fuck and some of the craters were big enough and unrepeatable enough so a small pond was able form or a lake.
Eventually the bitterness I felt towards the conversation was too much and it finally got the best of me. Cracklin' noises had come out of my hand and I went straight for the first tree I saw and broke it in two it looked as if a lightin' had stroked it. Once, twice, even trice I broke, smashed, and blasted everythin' I saw and broke it in two. But it wasn't enough it normally isn't enough…
"Neru so…you don't feel…different now that I told you…that well you know you're different from everyone we know including me"
"Not gonna lie…it's weird but it explains a lot y'know…"
"Like what?"
"To let out steam I have to acknowledge the sides that make me a monster!"
"Think of it this way you just resemble both mom and dad! And look you even got mom's pointy ears and dad's werewolf tail!"
"And because of that shit it keeps remindin' me that I'm a hybrid! A hybrid that's strong enough to eliminate a whole country and yet they couldn't save their own family!"
I don't remember what had happened after that nor do I know how the hell I got into the position I am now. But I must've passed out sometime durin' my little tantrum since I woke up to a soft voice and after a bit it became pokin'. I opened my eyes and saw white and red my initial thought was…
Ah…shit who's draggin' me to purgatory…?
"Ah…! You're awake!"
"Am I dead? Am I goin' to purgatory or hell?"
They shook their head and I took it as a 'You're not dead' what a disappointment that was if ya asked me. But that aside I sat up from the floor and tried to adjust my eyes so I'd be able to see better it took a bit but I was able to see clearly again. Rubbin' my eyes once more I looked behind me and what a shock I got when I saw…
Of all people to find me it's my crush! Today really did go to shit!
"Oh uh…hey…"
"…Hi…um…a-are you…..ok…...?"
"Eh? Oh yea I'm fine just fell asleep that's all…"
Ah what a cheep lie…
My crush looked at me and she looked like she knew I lied but didn't call me out on it instead she smiled. I felt bad not gonna lie but I returned her smile with a small smile of my own while avertin' eye contact like the plague. We couldn't really start a conversation either especially while facin' each other then add in the amount of awkwardness around. And it all equals: 'That one awkward moment ya have with your crush that slowly ends up bein' an awkward confession and ya feel like crawlin' into a hole and never see the sun for the rest of your life' what a great moment of my life. So like the time we kinda first talked which was mostly my crush panickin' bout whether or not she killed me. Ah don't we both have great memories with each other. We both turned around avoidin' eye contact even more like the plague.
"So uhh what ya doin' around here?"
"Oh nothing I just walk around really…."
"In an absurd place like this? Y'know with all the craters and stuff I didn't think this is the safest place ya know?"
"That is a scary thought but…it's a beautiful place don't you think? With the pond just down the hill we're sitting on and with the flowers blooming along with the green grass and chirping birds it's a nice place to be don't you think so?"
I looked around for the first time without any bitterness `bout this place and holy shit she wasn't wrong. This forest is hella fuckin' beautiful. I smiled to myself obviously not like the red eyed girl can see me smile to begin with. We both sat there in silence that was oddly comfortable. After a bit I felt some one pokin' me. I got an idea that my crush was more than shy which was somethin' I thought was cute. Either way I turned around to face her and I felt happy that I got to stare into her eyes and I also caught a glance of her immense amount of cleavage. This wasn't my intent I swear but since my face started to feel hot and I tried to ignore it but it's not the easiest fuckin' thing to do.
Cause like dam look at `em! Wait-! No-! Don't look at `em!
"Uh yea…wha'sup?"
Don't look Don't look Don't look
"Um Wanna…uh…start…..introductions?"
"Oh yea the name's Akita Neru and what's yours?"
"…Yowane Haku nice to meet you…"
"Yowane-san then…can I ask ya something?"
*Nods Nods*
"Do ya know who I am? And did Lily tell ya anything?"
Yowane turns back around as do I and the silence gave me a hint of maybe she's tryin' to actually figure out who I am. In which is highly not possible since my name spreads around the school like wild fire which is not got fire. Or option two which is most likely to happen is she's tryin' to think of a lie of some sort so she doesn't tick me off in some way. In a way I wouldn't blame her since my name goes with some brutal stuff not includin' what happened that day with Nero. Thankfully not many remember the incident but for those who do avoid me like the plague. Hell people who lived in the neighborhood for so long suddenly moved cause of me.
Here's hopin' she doesn't know that or my name in general
"No not really…do I need to know who you are?"
She doesn't know! Yes! I might have a chance!
"Nah it ain't important I was just wonderin' if Lily had told ya anythin' `is all"
"Are you referring to Lily-nee by any chance?"
"Lily…nee? Are the both of ya family?"
"Ah no not really our parents are just good friends and we knew each other since we were both little so she's like an Onee-chan to me"
"Hmm…sounds nice…"
I know how to tease Lily now
"Are you an only child Akita-san?"
"Huh? Oh uh…yea…I'm…an only child…"
Now I am at least…
"Oh so-sorry I didn't mean t-to pry into your private life!"
"Nah its fine really don't mind it really not like I got much to hide anyway…but on that note what subjects do ya have trouble on Yowane-san?"
She didn't answer right away instead I felt the aura around her change. Kinda like she didn't want to answer the question in a way I knew Yowane-san struggled with every subject. I grinned to myself and decided not to say anythin' instead I asked the opposite of what I had asked. It took her a bit but she finally answered.
"Um Home EC class and gym class I'm pretty good at but other than that um…"
"Don'cha worry `bout that I can take a hint and once I'm done tutorin' ya you'll be able to ace the mid terms in July I'll guarantee ya that!"
"I…wouldn't guarantee…..anything Akita-san….."
Hmm…she sounds too gloomy…and it's not a good gloomy…then again not like gloomy is a good sign to begin with
"Why ya say that? Nothin's impossible y'know anyone can…change…"
What a hypocrite like answer ain't that right Nero?
"Can you…not say things that you don't do yourself Akita-san?"
"Eh-?"
"Ah- No-Nothing it's nothing a-anyway I should get going It's getting late and Lily-nee is probably getting worried by now so…"
I saw Yowane-san get up and cleaned her pants as she turned around and bowed to say good bye then left runnin'. I kept watchin' her as she got smaller and smaller the further she got away. Since we were talkin' on top of a hill I could still see her for awhile but a feelin' of unease had started to creep up on me. As she finally disappeared the moon had rose and day turned to night I got up from the ground and decided to teleport out of the forest. At the edge of the forest I had walked towards the nearest connivance store and I had shop lifted the place. After that I had actually returned home with my winnin's openin' the door to my room I threw what I had 'bought' onto my bed.
The room feels oddly occupied…
"Show yourself intruder!"
Ya obviously don't know who ya messin' with here!
"Well you're as sharp as ever aren'cha Neru-Neru~?"
"Who's there?! Show yourself!"
"Hmm…but if I do you'll end up in shock, sadness, anger, hatred and you'll want to kill me and I don't got time for that literally so why don'cha calm down for a bit Neru-Neru?"
"Oh I'm calm so show yourself…Nero!"
"Well would ya look at that you remembered my voice!"
Grrr how can I forget you're the one that haunts me every day since your death ya can't even let me have a good night's rest!
"So? Are ya gonna show yourself or are ya just gonna taunt me?"
Plus you're just an illusion like all the others…I just wanna get this over with…
I looked at the empty room as it was now getting' full by a fake Nero. I couldn't help but cringe in anger at the sight of him just appearin' in front of me. When Nero fully appeared he had on the biggest grin and looked as if everythin' goin' as planned and I hated it. Why does he have the right to smile when I couldn't why does he look like he's enjoyin' life to the fullest? When I'm here not bein' able to return back into a normal life where people don't call me a murderer!
You should have never been born you monster!
"Hm? Neru you look pale you ok? Don't tell me ya caught a cold now? I kept on tellin' ya to stop sleeping out on the roof top! Here get in bed you'll feel better once ya get a good night's rest-"
"Well aren'cha just actin' like a fuckin' hypocrite? A good night's rest? Fuckin' bitch ya should know I never had such a thing since YOUR death Nero"
"My…death…?"
"Yes YOUR DEATH! The death that changed everythin' for me! Everywhere I go they all call me murderer! It's all because of-! All because of…"
Who am I kiddin'? Blamin' it all on ya an illusion like all the other's…the real fault is on me…the one who couldn't save your ass…
"…Neru…you're not blaming yourself…for what happened to me…are you?"
I didn't respond. I just couldn't `cos if I did…I'll just burst into tears. At this point no one knows what I have been through and what I'm goin' through. How can they? No one will know what it's like to be rejected by society just for the way you're born. And every one will just start callin' ya somethin' ya ain't cause of one thing that happened.
"…It's unfair…"
"Neru…"
"You're unfair…how could ya just ask if I'm ok? Don'cha know of the pain and frustration I had to go through?! …Of course ya don't you're just an illusion…just disappear already…"
I didn't say anythin' else to the fake Nero I just went towards my bed and called it a day. Since I didn't want to hear him any longer I tried to call it a day quickly. But I didn't completely fell asleep until what felt like decades. In all honesty I was just happy I could actually sleep `cos for some reason I actually got sleep. Well as much sleep as I could get before I woke up from the 'dream' I was havin'. And they were oddly vivid like more vivid than normal thankfully I got to at least sneak in an extra hour of sleep. But it wasn't as much as I'd hoped and this doesn't mean I don't remember what happened last night. I groaned in absolute agony still stayin' in bed thinkin'
This sucks…
