Silence is my Nature
By: Hermoine147
Summary: He's ten and he's the city's most notorious killer, having killed a total of 178 people, ranging from a fellow child to an adult who can well defend himself/herself from the young attacker. He was caught and locked, tightly locked in a cell that not even a ray of sun can peek in. But suddenly, the young prisoner disappeared without a trace. Unbeknownst to anybody, he was sucked by a portal that lead to a completely different world, a world made of white birds one calls "rukhs". The young mass-murderer has to live his free-killing days in this world, together with a daughter of a family with great underworld history and political power, who was also sucked together with the young boy.
Author's note: ... _:(´□`」 ∠):_ KILL ME NOW, I deserve not to live. I'm sorry for the long wait for those whom have waited (or perhaps, for those whom I assumed who were for my own satisfaction) and for those who have just read, well, I really hope this would be to your liking!
Chapter 3: It starts Spinning
The room was filled entirely by her heavy breathing. The clouds outside was gray and dirty but strangely , what It drew was not ugly, It was a pure pure white snow. She gritted her teeth and sobbed. She laid down on her bed, her right arm draped over her forehead. Her room was dark. She bent her right knee upward. Oh yeah, when did she like snow again?
Or rather, why did she like snow again?
Because it was pure?
Because it was beautiful?
『いいえ.それより深い答えを持っている. 』
『 No, I have an answer deeper than that. 』
Answer? Deeper? No, I just like snow because-
『だって? 』
『 because? 』
Because it lightens my heart...
『 なぜだ? 』
『 Why so? 』
Eh? Now that I think about it, I don't really... know..
A light snicker escaped Kougyoku's lips, as a closed pair of magenta hues shot open, staring at the white ceiling. The snicker then formed a grin as her hands stiffened and made it crackle, muscles and bones, the same. As if she was to prepare for a fight.
『 じゃあ,俺 は君 に 教えて 上げる. 』
『 Well, I'll tell you. 』
『だから... 』
『 That's why... 』
『 俺 を ここから 逃走. 』
『 Let me through from here. 』
Kouen ran on the hallway. His long and slender legs stretched in every step. Earlier, was that-? He growled, panic clear from his movements and features. That overflowing killing intent.. was that..
Kougyoku?
He halted when he saw Kouha running from the opposite direction, the other boy was as frantic as he was. Cool sweat dropping from his forehead. " Brother, earlier, the intent I felt-"
"I know!" Kouen cut the younger's words off. He then stared at the main hallway in which Kougyoku's room was in the end of it. He narrowed his eyes and proceeded to hurry to his youngest sister's room, accompanied by Kouha, who ran next to him. When they were near her doorstep, they took each footstep audibly, as Kouen then lightly knocked on Kougyoku's door, hoping for some response. "Kougyoku, are you there? Open this instant, now." He ordered, not very convincing since he was far too worried to act stern as of the moment.
And there was no response.
He knocked again, "Kougyoku, OPEN IT, NOW." Might was now mixed in his tone as he banged on the door, almost tearing it open. As for Kouha, on the other hand, twisted the door knob rather impatiently, " Open it, Gyoku!" Both were now clenching their teeth.
"KOUGYO-"
That was when the door blasted open, making both reflexively jump backward, and in a defensive manner. What stood there was Kougyoku. The usual Kougyoku who stared at them with wide open eyes, expression removed from her face. . .Definitely,not the usual Kougyoku.
"What is it?..." She questioned, her voice almost mute but then, It was harsh. It was like she could kill anyone at the moment. Yes, definitely NOT the usual Kougyoku.
Kouha took three steps back. This is bad, Don't tell me that she's no longer- More sweat ran down from his forehead, to his cheeks and dripped on his chin. Shit.
Kouen then coughed once, calming himself and retaining his posture, "No, It's nothing.." He answered, "I was merely wondering and now, I have my answers." He then turned his back on the younger sister and left, his hands tightly coiled, his nails piercing his palm.
Kouha kept his mouth shut and followed Kouen, his brows arched. It would seem that the whole family members would be staying here tonight.
Aladdin walked in a lazy pace, having fun watching his breathe materialize into smoke. And, with no destination in particular. A dud. Kougyoku looked like that insane woman years ago but she's far to stupid to be able to do that killing. And innocently-looking to boot. If she's pretending... I would know.. But that doesn't seem to be the case..
He then tilted his head up and gazed at the gray sky. Maybe.. she's different? Perhaps, It was another person.
His train of thoughts was then interrupted by a sudden embrace on the back. He then looked behind him, only to find a familiar blonde who smiled at him from ear to ear. "Alibaba..." He muttered under his breath and a small smile then crawled on his face. "It's been long."
"Yeah! So So so so so sooooooooo Long! I missed you so much!" He then grounds his face on the shorter male, causing for Aladdin to push him back, pink tinge on his cheeks, "Stop it, Alibaba, It's so embarrassing!" He pleadingly scolded the other. While Alibaba merely rubbed the back of his head and sheepishly laughed. "How have you been?" Alibaba asked with a bright smile intact on his face as usual.
"Fine. Just a bit busy."Aladdin replied. Well, he was busy and he wasn't lying. Killing and fleeting out of the scene is already equal to 'busy' in a way.
"god, You're ten and I'm like, hanging out here. Man, take some break! More like, why does a ten year old much busier than I am? I rarely see you on your house. You always seemed to be out. I call on you and no matter how much I do, you're never coming out!" Alibaba rattled his mouth. It couldn't be helped for the blonde, he considered Aladdin as one of his best friends after all. And, Aladdin was much more mature than he looks so the younger could understand every words he spouts, unlike any other ten year old kids out there.
"You're busy. I know. I mean, As far as I remembered in your schedule, prelims would be out the corner but here you are, not in your desk on your home studying but talking like a mad man to me. I bet you went to the arcades and got your money blown 'cause it was 'fun'."Aladdin mercilessly and bluntly pointed it, making Alibaba dramatically grovel on the ground, clutching his chest area, making his white polo shirt crumple, "How cold-hearted!" He exclaimed, fake tears running down his eyes.
"Won't you stand up there, like, right now 'cause you're stealing attention from people and it's , you're in public, learn some shame." Aladdin again criticized, dragging the older by the arm.
"Okay, okay." Alibaba sniffed, dusting himself from the snow and dirt. "Oh! Hey Aladdin, wanna go eat? My treat!" He suddenly said, making Aladdin turn to him, "Wait, what-? You weren't broke? Like, seriously?"
"No I wasn't, I managed to leave a few dollars. Wait, I'm the one inviting and offering, why are you still continuing your sarcastic insults?!" He spat with a pouting lips. He then smirked, "Okay, If that's what you want, then I'm not gonna offer anymore."
"Okay.." Aladdin answered indifferently and continued on his way, making the older grab his hand, "WAIIIITTT! Okay, Okay, I'm paying up, let's go now!" They then proceeded to McDonalds for some fries and burgers.
Jafar heavily exhaled, Why in the heavens was he in the fast food now? He sipped on his float, glaring at the man opposite to his seat.
"What's with the glare, Ja'far? Isn't it good to eat outside sometimes?" Sinbad reasoned after receiving the murderous glare, a bit unsettled.
"Now, now, let's not be violent, Ja'far.~" The toned person with silver hair, Sharrkan, who was sitting next to Sinbad tried to calm the pale albino down. Not wanting scandal or worse, bloodshed on the Fast food.
Suddenly, a tall man was standing beside their table, making the three look up. "Oh hey, you're already back, Masrur?"
Masrur nodded, gently placing the tray which contained their orders on the table as they went and picked up what they ordered.
"Hey, what's the news about the case you guys're working on?" Sharkkan asked, taking a huge bite out of his large size hotdog.
Sinbad slightly grunted, evident on his face that it was not going well. "It's pretty hard, since I was never asked to be placed on a case similar to this before." He admitted.
Sharrkan hummed a response. "That's quite rare. So who's the suspect?"
Ja'far then stopped nibbling on his fries and rummaged his bag, pulling out a white tablet as he then worked his hands on it and showed the screen to Sharkkan. "This, here, is the suspect." He said in a serious tone, making Sharkkan choke on his hotdog and cough in pain, "What? WHAT? B-but that's a THAT'S A KID!"He shouted, not quite believing the Albino's words.
"He's not lying. That's why it's so hard. Can you imagine a kid, killing a total of 177 people? He's like, already one of Europe's top mass-murderer." Sinbad replied in a casual tone.
"That's not really the case, if we compare him to those of the underworld. There's even a family who goes unscathed despite killing a lot of people for their own gain." Ja'far pointed out and everyone on the table knew who was it that he referred to.
"Certainly, if we claim the Ren Family's evil doings, society won't believe us, but instead, will team up on that bloody excuse of a family." Sinbad gritted his teeth narrowed his eyes in anger. "You can see how unfair the world is."
"Talking about the kid..." Masrur started as he then pointed out on their right and on the farthest table," He's been eating there for a while."
They all then went pale. "WHHHHAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTT?!" Sinbad, Ja'far and Sharrkan screamed in synchronize.
Sinbad then abandoned his seat and made his way to the 'criminal's' table.
Alibaba went to the rest room, excusing himself to 'pee' while Aladdin was left alone on their table, gulping down some fries in a binge manner. Alibaba's the one who'll gonna pay for it anyway, and he was terribly hungry.
Suddenly, someone slammed a fist on their table, making him dumbfounded for a second, wide azure orbs in shock as he slowly turned his head up, seeing a man with purple long hair, tied into a low ponytail and fierce pair of golden eyes. He then regained his composure and gulped the fries down, followed with a sly grin, "Hi Sir Policeman, you want something from me?" He asked playfully.
"How did you know I was with the police?" The man retorted, demanding for a convincing answer. Aladdin simply shrugged, the smile turning into a grin, "Because I always see you, Deputy Inspector, Sinbad, a.k.a. Sin."
Sinbad gasped, looking at Aladdin in disgust, "Looks like some kid did their assignment."
"And it seemed that the teacher wasn't so happy by it." Aladdin made a smiley face, his muscles already tense and is already in his offensive position.
Sinbad drew a heavy exhalation and glared daggers at the criminal, "I don't want to turn this fast food into battlefield, There will be a lot of people that will be dragged and possibly killed."
"But if you leave me alone, The result will be the same." He sipped on his coke, as if there wasn't any police currently trying to threaten him.
"Why you!" Sinbad snapped, making a fast grab on Aladdin's shirt, making his feet not intact with the floor anymore.
"Huh? What's that?"
"What's happening?"
"Hey, hey, stop that man! He's choking the child!"
Many whispers then flooded the whole fast food, whole attention on both of them. Masrur, Ja'far and Sharrkan then ran on Sinbad's side, trying to calm the Deputy Inspector down. "Stop it, Sin! This isn't the good place to make a huge ruckus!" Ja'far reprimanded, a bit frantic.
"As everyone says, Sir Deputy Inspector. What you are currently doing abides the law and it's called 'Child Abuse', you know." Aladdin smirked, making the four police officers to scowl at him. "Remember this, Mass-murderer Aladdin. I will definitely, without fail, catch you!" Sinbad threatened, pulling his hands away, making Aladdin land with his butt first as the child rubbed it in pain.
The four then left the Fast food, earning a mischievous smile from the mass-murderer. "That's such a shame~"
Alibaba then came back, blinking many times upon seeing Aladdin sitting on the floor, "Exactly what are you doing, Aladdin."
Aladdin chuckled in response, "Nothing, I just felt sitting on the floor because I was extremely pleased."
"Get up, you weirdo, you already finished eating before sitting on the floor because you were pleased, right?"
"Yeah, for now." Aladdin replied, as both men then exit McDonalds before the manager comes and kick them out himself/herself.
Alibaba had already parted ways with him as he sat on a swing on a park, the darkness of the night enveloping the sky with merely a single dim light called 'moon'.
"Just exactly why am I on a park right now?" He wondered, speaking his question lightly. He then sat up from the swing and walked away from the park, maybe returning to his house for now wouldn't be a bad idea at all. He needs to spend his time on his house that his mother and father left him before the police takes it away from him.
He chortled, his fingers intertwined and supporting the back of his head. How fun, how fun, how fun. It'll finally get fun starting from now. The police will start chasing like crazy. Yes this is the thrill I wished for.
A visibly gleeful smile enveloped his features,not even paying attention whom it is he is passing through in the busy street and large crowd.
『 君 が 持っている, でしょう? 俺 の ナイフ. 』
『 You have it, right? My knife.』
His eyes shot up in sheer surprise, And even after hearing the voice and those words,
And He can't
Turn his head back to at least take a glimpse of
his subject of revenge.
