Chapter 9
"Next time you kill someone, make sure that they are indeed DEAD, as failure to do so will result in some nasty questions…"
"So you think that our teacher is actually a demon from a tribe that killed your parents when you were little and now she's back to kill you too?" Icama said, looking up from her homework briefly to stare at Minna.
"Yes," Minna sighed, happy that Icama had finally understood after the past two hours of ranting, raving, and trying to explain.
"You're paranoid."
Minna glared at Icama. "I am not, moss-lover. I swear that's her. She's trying to kill me, I know it."
Icama stuck out her tongue. "You're paranoid," Icama repeated slowly. "You just want a reason to get out of here. Believe me, I do too but I'm not making up stories about some demon gone human just to murder me now have I?"
Minna grabbed Icama by her shirt collar and glared into the gold eyes. "I am not making this up. Why would I make up something about the death of my parents?"
Icama shrugged, pushing Minna away. "I don't know. But, what I do know is that we should tell Koenma about your little assassin."
Minna shook her head. "No, Icama. We can't tell Koenma anything. He wouldn't believe me. Especially since my own best friend won't believe me. Anyways, I have to do this on my own. I can't have any outside help; which means you, Icama."
Icama stared at the window as Minna packed some food into a backpack. "Where do you think you're going, little miss paranoid?" Icama asked as Minna headed out the door.
Minna paused a second before answering. "Gathering evidence."
.::Outside of Sarayashiki Public Junior High School::.
This is so wrong, Minna thought. I'm willingly coming back to school to spy on a teacher after hours…what's wrong with me?!
Minna had been sitting in a tree for thirty minutes before the teacher came back into her room. Minna nearly fell out of the tree with boredom before anything interesting happened. It had been an hour since the teacher had returned to her classroom when a male human walked into the room.
"Good evening, Miss Yamaguchi! I was wondering if you would join me for dinner?" he asked, clearly nervous to be around her. The teacher smiled at him.
"Not tonight, Mr. Nagasaki. I already have plans. Perhaps another time."
Mr. Nagasaki nodded and left. Miss Yamaguchi shook her head and returned to her work.
"Wow, Minna."
Minna nearly jumped out of her skin at the sound of Icama's voice.
"Yup. You were right. Absolute demon."
Minna glared at Icama. She was the only person that could sneak up on Minna and Icama used that to her advantage.
"If you're going to be sarcastic, go home," Minna said, turning back to the schoolroom.
"No, I think I'll stay here. I finished my homework and there's nothing on TV. After this can we go eat dinner? I'm starv—"
"Shut up! Look!" Minna covered Icama's mouth and pointed at the teacher.
She had locked the door and was taking her hair off. Brilliant green hair tumbled down onto her shoulders and curled at the bottom. She shook it out before taking out some contacts that revealed brilliant white eyes and cat-like irises. Her nails grew out to an abnormal length and looked as sharp as a knife.
Icama's jaw dropped as she looked into the room. Minna simply glared as she watched the proceedings.
A giant demon had walked into the room. He looked almost exactly like the one from when Minna's parents were killed but slightly different. For one, this giant was much larger and his hair was a deep black instead of gray.
The woman examined the giant until she smiled. "I have found her, Paucity. You and I shall kill her when the time comes. However, I would like to remind you of your brother's fate when he failed to kill her. Don't repeat his mistake."
The giant grunted and went back through the hole in the wall as the woman followed, looking around one last time before closing the hole. The room was empty and the only movement was some papers fluttering to the ground.
Icama turned to Minna. "You've made me catch the paranoia. It's a disease, I'm sure of it. I saw those people but I don't entirely—"
"Do you believe me or not, now, Icama?" Minna asked, eating an apple as a vain twitched in Icama's head.
"Yes, you idiot. Now throw away the apple and let's eat some real food…like chicken!"
