Hello! I'm back! I hope you like this chapter and sorry it took me so long to update. I'm pretty lazy during summer vacation. Well enjoy reading and remember, MORE REVIEWS! Thank you! ;3
Chapter 4
It's been about two weeks since I got my new roommate Soul Eater Evans.
It turns out that the school allows boys and girls to share apartments. As long as they remain in their own separate bedrooms during the night. Overall, sharing a room with Soul isn't as bad as I thought it would be. I'm actually kinda glad he's around. Soul is a great cook and keeps his room decently clean. Soul hasn't really caused any trouble, except when he listens to his music really loud while I'm studying or when he takes a really long time in the bathroom applying his hair gel, which I hid a couple days ago just to piss him off.
The cops that came to investigate Yumi's murder left about a week ago. They found no murder weapon or fingerprints anywhere, so they just left. That was extremely odd though, usually they would take weeks to investigate this kind of murder. Why did they leave then?
I've been too busy with school to focus on the case. The teachers have been assigning so much homework lately. Luckily the homework is super easy for me, but it's been piling up so fast that it's taken me a few all nighters just to keep up with it all. I think the teachers are just giving us all of this work to distract us with this whole murder investigation.
I look over to the clock. Better start getting ready.
I get dressed first and then I start making breakfast. Hmm.. I think I'm in the mood for pancakes today. Ugh.. I almost forgot to drag Soul out of bed. It's such a pain trying to get him up. That guy could sleep through an earthquake. Looks like I have to anyways since he's my only ride. I'd rather jump off a cliff into a field of spikes then ride in the car with my Papa while he sings twinkle twinkle little star nonstop.
After I finish making the pancakes, delicious looking might I say, I head towards Soul's room. I look to see him all wrapped up in his little mound of sheets, drooling like a little baby. He looks kind of cute when he sleeps.
"Soul get up! It's time to go to school."
The only response I receive is a long moan.
"Soul, I made pancakes. If you don't get up I'll eat them all!"
He only moves his head slightly.
"J-just five more minutes." He replies in a drowsy tone.
Well looks like I'm gonna have to do this the hard way. I walk over to the end of his bed and grab him by the ankles. I then drag him off the bed and he thumps to the floor.
"Hey! What the hell Maka?!"
"I told you to get up. Now get dressed and come out for breakfast."
"Fine."
When he finally leaves his room its time to go.
"Wait, I didn't get anything to-" He doesn't finish cause I stuff and apple in his mouth while we rush out the door.
Luckily we end up right in our seats just as the bell rings.
"Hi Maka." Tsubaki whispers.
"Hey." I silently greet back.
Suddenly I realize Blackstar isn't with Tsubaki. Wait a moment where the heck is Blackstar? He's always with Tsubaki.
"YAHOO!"
Everybody turns to see a certain blue-headed imbecile flying in from the window. Blackstar ends up landing safely from the high window, but unfortunately he landed right on our teacher. Looks like we'll be having a substitute. I hope the teacher didn't fracture their spine.
Hmmm… Maybe after school I'll try to get some info on Yumi's past. Why was she the first murder victim? I've been wondering what note specifically meant also. Is there a pattern going on?
I was so busy thinking of the murder I didn't notice our sub walk in. All of the boys in the class began to whistle and hoot. Then Soul had an enormous nose bleed. I looked to see a girl in her mid twenties wearing a extremely short skirt and a see through blouse with a pair of black pumps. She was tall and curvy. Her dark purple hair reached down to her shoulders, which complemented her yellow eyes. On top of her striking beauty, her breasts were the size of antartica. In some weird way, it seems kinda like she resembles a cat.
"Nya~ Hello my little kittens! I'm Blair-chan! This is my first day on the job, so behave okay!" Her voice sounded both overly enthusiastic and seductive at the same time. All the boys in the class gave her their undivided attention, even Soul. They're all idiots.
Yeah no surprise it's her first day.
"The school was in dire need of a sub, so I stepped in. As you all may have heard my, Yumi-chan, was murdered here. I wanted to see the place where her death occurred."
The whole class suddenly went quiet. We were supposed to pretend like Yumi's death never even happened.
Wait a minute. That's Yumi's cousin! This is perfect, I can ask her a few questions after lunch about Yumi.
Blair decided to give us a free period rather than teach the lesson plan. I guess that isn't so bad since I've been wanting to read a few more chapters of the novel I'm reading.
Class ended up going on forever. Nobody else was really doing anything productive. All of the guys in the period just stared at Blair the whole time and the girls were either just gossiping or silently pouting about all the guys in the class not paying any attention to them. Tsubaki just did her homework while I read. I peeked over to Soul just as he was having a major nosebleed.
Huh… What was the nosebleed for? I then noticed that Blair was reaching for something on the shelf nearby. Her skirt was so short that her see-through panties were on display for the whole class to see. Angry at Soul, I kicked him hard in the thigh and gave him a hard Maka-chop to the head. He spent the rest of the period unconscious. Well he's gonna be pissed off at me later, but at least I gave him something to do instead of staring at Blair's butt. I felt a small sense of victory for some reason. I swear guys are such morons.
When lunch finally rolled by and everyone exited the classroom, except Soul because he was still passed out. I walked up to Blair to ask her some questions about Yumi.
"Excuse me , I couldn't help but hear that Yumi was your cousin."
"Yep, she was! Nya~ Yumi-chan was my second cousin on my daddy's side!"
She didn't seem really upset talking about it.
"Umm.. Hi I'm Maka Albarn and well, I was wondering if you could tell me a bit more about Yumi. I don't mean to pry or anything. I just wanted to write an article for the school newspaper."
I ask giving her my special look with my innocent eyes. I feel a bit bad about lying, but I can't really tell her what I'm really doing.
"Ask away my little kitten."
I grab out a notebook and pencil to start asking questions.
"Well, were you to close?"
"Not really. I hardly ever saw her and whenever I did she was mean to me."
"What was her personality like?"
"She was always super stuck up since her parents were filthy rich and she could seduce pretty much any man."
I wonder if the seductiveness runs in the family.
"Do you know anything about her if you two hardly knew each other?"
"Well I do know that she is half-japanese and half-french. Her mother was a famous fashion designer and her dad owns a huge oil company in Japan."
Hah that might explain why the word lust was in French!
"Oh and she also had this really popular blog that she ran with her best friend."
"What was her friend's name?"
"Oh her friend's name was Mako Higurashi."
"Did you ever meet Mako?"
"Nya~Yes, once I met her when Yumi had a sleepover at my house. Those two little brats trashed the place when they invited the whole student body for a toga party during their junior year. Mako is similar to Yumi in ways. Both of them were little monsters. I remember hearing that she would always torment this poor kid."
Hearing about this makes me agitated. People like this piss me off.
"Do know the name of this person?"
"Yes, I think their name was Crona if I remember correctly."
The name Crona interests me. I kinda want to meet this person.
"Did you ever meet Crona?"
"No, I just read it one day on Yumi-chan's blog. Her and Mako were boasting about it online."
"Do Mako and Crona still attend this school?"
"I believe so. Nya~"
Well, looks like I have some more investigating to do. I'll have to check the latest updates from Yumi's blog right before she died. I still have to talk to Crona and Mako too.
"Thank you for your time."
"Your welcome! Bye Maka-chan!"
Right when I finish talking to Blair Soul finally wakes up.
"Huh! What happened?"
"We have to go find someone named Mako Higurashi preferably before lunch ends."
"I know her. She was Yumi's little sidekick. I hate her she is just like a clone of Yumi, except worse."
"Well too bad, I'm not going to enjoy this either, but I need to interrogate about Yumi. Do you know where she hangs out?"
"By the band room, probably making out with some random guy. How do you even plan on talking to her anyway?"
"I have a plan, but I need your help."
"Fine. Let's go."
We then head off to the band room to interrogate Mako. I hope this goes well.
