The King Is Still Standing chapter 7

'Like dominos reality has a view steps before real disasters begins'

"hey man we better hurry home quick, it's getting dark"

"oh? are we getting scared~?"

"No! just can't see very well and also want to relax in my room" *sob, sob* crying catches everyone's attention "hey look! Someone's crying, Are you alright?!" they grew closer "hey~ she's very pretty" one suggested "shush! Hey! if it's okay we'll like to help anyway we can?" they questioned getting her to stand " bring me back shiva " she muttered under her breath "excuse me?"

"Bring me back my shiva!?" she exploded ice caved in the boys "AHHHHHHHH!"

The Next Day, news spread to unfortunate ears

"uh?! You can't be serious you want us! To go to shirayuki's house!"

"yes indeed, she hasn't come to school again and since she missed out the entire first semester she'll be in more trouble if she continue to skip class" Nekonome-sensei called us in to discuss shirayuki's absences but "that is why I think shiva and moka-san will be perfect candidates because of their leadership title" I really didn't want to be laid with responsibility even if it's my fault. "please bring her back, I don't believe she's a bad person just misunderstood"

"oh how motivating Mrs Nekonome I'll take into account when I'm a popsicle" I shivered at the mere thought "okay here's her room number, if she isn't there check her usual spot by the cliff near her house" weird thought it would be the lake "Nekonome-sensei do you have a minute!?" a dumpy type person walked up nonchalant and droopy "oh kotosuba-sensei is there something you wanted?"

"yeah I came to discuss shirayuki and her recent attack on my members of the soccer team, she nearly killed them" I was shocked to hear this, "poor kids were frozen in a glacier paired with beaten to death, to bad they are only seriously injured and not dead" is story seems way off, beaten to death? Yet only seriously injured "this is a major problem, this is her second time seriously hurting another plus her numerous absences, the only solution is an expulsion for her" well this is really becoming my issue now.

"really? She nearly killed the students?! We're taking about the shy shirayuki-san!?"

"kurumu please don't yell so loudly and yes the same shirayuki-san who tried killing Keito-san" I responded in an agitated mood "I don't understand why she would do it?" I see someone noticed it as well "hey!? may it's lack of love from being completely rejected by shiva-kun?" why does yukari sound correct "Hey! don't say such mean things! Your making shiva up set!" kurumu was fiercely gripping at yukari checks in my defence "don't worry shiva, even If it's your fault weren't you annoyed with her? She did encase you in ice?"

"yeah, yeah she's a Meany~ she deserves it~" yukari was being harasses by kurumu's grip "but to believe that a girl so fragile would result in such a brutish means of violence, it's unacceptable"

"Believe it or not! I have the factual evidence that shirayuki did it" a familiar deep voice approaches "here's her notebook from the crime scene" it was the same scrapbook that she showed me "forgive me, but I did take a peak and I'll say I feel sorry for you shiva" he flicked through the pages stopping at the ones with black ink seeped inside "at the beginning of the year she fell in love with a teacher, even though that form of love is prohibit she ignored it and when she couldn't she lashed out, turning him into ice, that is why she was suspended she was too dangerous" he sounded like he told the truth but was suspicious "don't you think that she's better off to never have existed? She holds no difference if she just disappears"

"what are you getting at sensei?"

"seriously, don't you think she's annoying? Someone to claim they know you just to hurt you? I know how that feels"

"wait!? The teacher you mentions it's you?!" he grew a wide smirk just covering his face "That's right! She hurt me real bad~ just like you, she didn't care about my thoughts in the matter" this is getting more terrible in shirayuki's position.

Even though I'm not the right person to talk to her I was forced to go, maybe it's my punishment for being a sad loser. "okay we're looking for room 8-6, here it is!" I came to a worn door with bottom and top completely filled with scratches, and remember not here probably cliff. *knock, knock* "who is it?" shirayuki answered, thank go she's here "Shirayuki-san! It's me shiva Abaddon, I came to discuss with you about your expulsion!" the door shuttered at my voice getting colder "I'm sorry that it was me who had to collect you, I wouldn't want you to see me after I what I said so has an addition I came to apologise" the shuttering stopped "I know I wasn't so kind on your feelings I had two others who care about me and forced me to choose between them, so when you joined in I was pushed to stress and cut someone off but that was awfully rude of me so I'm sorry, am I allowed to see you again?" there was no response, a cold linger stare at the door *Shink!* "ah?" *Boom!* "WOow!" the silence was ruined when ice spears destroyed the door and causing a backfire to explode "ugh~ ow, that's going to bruise"

"what do you want~" that same cold voice stood across me "shirayuki, that wasn't a very formal greeting" she looked away annoyed "look I've been told that you attacked two students, I don't want to believe them but I keep being shown that you're capable" I rose up to see her blank stares "please we must go tell them you didn't mean anything by it, or they'll result in an expulsion for you!" her dead eyes didn't change "please shirayuki, I don't want you to be tossed out because of a misunderstanding" for a second her eyes her coloured but not for long "why should I apologise for something I didn't do?" I was dreaded now "I admit I froze some boys but I never in anyway actually hurt them" I knew it, "you seriously don't trust me do you? would you think a girl like me actually hurt others? You've crossed the line shiva, I truly thought you understood me"

"Mizore wait!" before I could get a word to her, she took off into a generated blizzard "I'm going to kill that bastard!" my anger was boiling up.

On a hill a girl cries with the howling breeze, "as usual you come here to cry your icy tears" some fierce hands held onto a jumpy mizore "Wow~ there don't want to 'accidently' jump to your death" he held her close to the cliffside "there is some strong winds around here, I wouldn't be strange if a girl falls off"

"kotosuba-sensei are you trying to?" mizore looked back to the nastiest grin "NO! let me go! Let go, let go, let go!" flailing about trying to escape she was causing a ruckus *push* "ah? WoooooAHHH!H" in a dramatic turn mizore pushed kotosuba off the cliff "oh no Sensei!?"

"kukuku~" fear drived into mizore's eyes has she just saw a tentacle sprung from below and wrap around her leg "gees~ I was only joking~ but I guess I can't forgive you now" when she looked down she saw a man suctioned to the cliff side "if it was anyone else they would be dead" complete terror mizore started to move away but kotosuba dragged her down "where do you think you're going?~ I'm going to drag you down here with me" she tried helplessly holding onto some edges and grass "come on~ this is what you deserve~ you're a dangerous student who should have been expelled ages ago!"

"n-no~ I'm not~"

"You attacked me, I only used self-defence! Just like shiva!" she flashed horror in her mind "you know it's true, you can't help it you are just a monster"

"no, no I didn't mean it!"

"Quit complaining! No one cares about you anymore! It's better if you just died right here~" the horror, it seemed into her mind she releases she has no one to turn to or care about her anymore, he was looking right. 'I never had anyone~ everyone just hated me and it's my fault~' her thoughts gave up and soon after her grip 'I'll just die, and leave no trace of me… every~'

"MIZORE!" at jet speed shiva came to save mizore grabbing her a booting down the teacher "it's okay, I've got you, you don't need to worry about him anymore" she opened her eyes seeing the black and purple demon hovering from the edge "shiva~ you came~"

"of course I did, why would I leave you to die" she looked at his soft face crying more tears on the cliffside "heh! You little bastard! Thought you can get rid of me that easily!" there was something attached to shiva's leg, the teacher was still holding out and was weighting him down "get off you lunatic!"

"Why!~ I thought we shared a common interest?! To see mizore banished from this school!?" she looked at him shadowing his eyes "shiva~?"

"YOU CLEARLY DON'T KNOW ME AT ALL SENSEI!" he yelled with fury "I WILL NEVER LET MIZORE BE PUNSIHED FOR SOMETHING SHE DIDN'T DO! AND I KNOW IT'S YOUR FAULT!" he yelled more rage and hatred and I got worried just gripping him tight "mizore!" he grabbed my attention "I'm going to disappear for a second, hope you can wait" I was confused, what was he planning "go to my friends, they will gladly look after you, also pass something on for me" I looked into his crying eyes "tell them I love you" I was surprised but then shocked when he threw me over the wall back onto the safe ground "Wait!? SHIVA!" he fell towards kotosuba-sensei making sure he was taking him down with him, "NOOOOOO!" my tears leaked for him as I watched helplessly has he fell to his death.

I mourned over the edge has I just heard footsteps approach the grass "umm shirayuki-san? Is that you?" I turned to meet the same girl from before who loved shiva "did shiva get here before me? Where is he?" I just cried more tears as I, a stranger to her life and his had to say the truth "h-h-he~ … I-i-is" I stuttered slowly rising my arm "h-he j-jump-ped t-to safe me~" she looked horrified running to the edge looking over to see nothing but crashing waves "y-yyou're lying~ he wouldn't die?!" I was too weak to answer just slightly shaking my head "n-nn-no, stop it he's not dead he can't be! Come are you sure it was shiva?!" I managed to give her a nod "no, no nono nonon NOOOOO!" she collapsed to the ground in a fit of devastation, the only person she loved is dead. "he told me to tell you something~" I spoke up getting the weak girl's attention "he said that he always loved you" she finally broke jumping to me and holding me in a tight hug, I broke just after.

Tomorrow came and it was a very depressing day, moka told the others what had happen but they didn't feel any lighter. We all gather around his tree he normally sat at, mourning the pain "h-h-he's not actually gone~ this is like last time, he'll be back~" yukari was gripping tightly around moka "yukari~ h-h-he i-i-isn't coming back~"

"Why~! He always come back he's not allowed to die!" she was a broken child tearing up because she's not meant to know of death "That bastard!" Keito punched the tree in anger "I'll find the man responsible for it and torture him to death!" she didn't take it lightly "he's not gone, I'll keep my eyes close and If I never open he'll be right there dancing with me under moonlight, like the couple we are" kurumu was probably the worst out of everyone, refusing to believe it then there's ginei "come on pal, this joke your playing has gone on too far!" ginei also ended up punching the tree "when I heard I thought it was my time to comfort the girls but I expected you to slap me across the head, why didn't you!" he punched the tree again "Why did you leave me I thought we we're friends!" ginei was taking things a little to far hammering the tree everyone stepped in to restrain him, they all really missed him. "ahem~ would this be a bad time to interrupt~" they turned to see a short haired girl with snow white skin, crying as well "I-I just came to ask, since shiva said you'll accept me, I'm not saying you have to! just he said we can be friends~" moka broke off from the group hug walking to mizore "you were the person he save right?" mizore nodded "then treasure that, you have the most latest memory of shiva and even if he didn't ask you to join, I would gladly become one of your friends on the spot"

"really?~" mizore questioned "yes" moka answer bringing her into a hug, sealing at most comfort. "AHhh! Goddamit!" the comfort broke off when moka screamed, mizore turned around to see what's wrong just to meet him, "you guys look really said I hope I didn't ruin anything?"

"SHIVA!" everyone sprinted to him tackling the poor fool.

I'm not going to lie, I state up cried when I killed my character, and I put on sad music to push it further. Hope you enjoyed this one, I would say my best yet but I liked the date one with kurumu also spoilers, she isn't going to let this fake death slide, no one will.
