Chapter 7: School Problems
The next day Akane walk to school like usual. Today she was going with her mother, Mitsuru and the whole group, to fight the Shadows. They didn't actually tell her where they are going, Akane wanted to know, but they are keeping it as a surprise party. Akane sighs and keep walking, she didn't want to go to class, she wanted to stay at home today and sleep. Lately she's feeling tired, there are times when her head hurts too. Akane believe that is because of all the situation she's facing. She may be suffering from stress.
"Akane" Misaki was behind her. Akane just nodded and they walk together "How are you feeling?" She asks
"Not so well, but i'll survive" Said Akane and take out her MP3 Player. Before she could put on the headphone, Misaki talk to her
"I wanted to ask you something, Akane" Misaki looks nervous. "Did Mitsuru told you about that Dark Hour thing?" She asks. Yesterday Mitsuru and Yukari told Akane that Misaki can experience the Dark Hour too, and she was there when she awakens her Personas. Akane didn't saw her that day because she focus on the Shadow that was attacking her.
"Yes, they told me everything. But i have the feeling that they were hiding something from me" She said and they arrive to the entrance
"Like what?"
"I don't know. There's something... I'll talk with my mother about it later. Meanwhile, i have something interesting to tell you"
"What?"
"Haruka can't experience the Dark Hour" She said and Misaki's eyes widen
"Really? I thought he could because his mother can summon a Persona" Misaki explain and Akane shake her head
"Looks like he is a special case. Mitsuru told me that maybe it's because of his father, he didn't have a Persona or enter the Dark Hour so there was a 50% chance that he could have the potential... Or don't"
"I see. My father may have the potential" Said Misaki
"Maybe, i don't know. Speaking of which, Is your father still living in New York?" Akane asks. Misaki's father lives in New York because he work for the branch of the Kirijo Group in America. Every year, she and Yukari goes to visit him and there are times when he goes back to Japan.
"Yes, lately he has sent me presents to make up for his absence. He also calls me a lot" Misaki look at the school "I want him here and not there"
"At least you have one" Said Akane "I don't know anything about mine. Mom only told me his name. She don't talk about him too much, looks like it bring her bad memories"
"Did he leave?" Misaki asks
"I won't be surprised, actually. Mom was pregnant when she was still on high school" Akane enter the school and the first thing she saw was Haruka talking to a girl. Akane recognizes her, she's from her class and she isn't the type of person Haruka would talk to. The girl is a bully, her name is Murasaki Okuse. Akane walks to them and heard the conversation.
"Let me guess, Yamagishi. Someone is messing with you?" Ask Murasaki "I'm not in the mood to hear your complaints, Kid. Get out of my face before i knock you" She said with her fist ready. If Akane didn't know her at all, she could never tell she is a Bully. Because she didn't look like one at all. Her uniform is in order, her long brown hair is well combed, she had makeup and her dark blue eyes were beautiful... But looks could be deceiving, especially with someone like her. "Are you deaf now, Haruka? Get lost!" She almost yells at him. She didn't want to get anyone's attention. Akane gets Haruka's attention
"What are you two doing?" She asks. Murasaki didn't answer, she just ignores her.
"Akane, are you alright? Mom told you just get out of the hospital yesterday" Said Haruka. Murasaki sighs
"Perfect, why don't you two get a room and leave? Leave me alone" Said Murasaki and take out her phone
"What is your problem, Murasaki?" Akane asks and Murasaki shrugs
"Why i should tell you about my personal life? Tell this kid that i'm not available to hear him anymore. All the words that came out of his mouth just piss me off. Find someone else to talk that is not a bully" Murasaki push Haruka away and he falls to the ground. "You think that i can be your friend just because i'm kind to you? Stupid"
"Hey!" Akane help Haruka to get up "Apologies with him, now!" Akane demanded
"Where are we? In Kindergarten? Do me a favor, Arisato" Murasaki look at Akane right into her eyes "Fuck off"
"I'm not scared of you, Murasaki. They say you are a Bully but i never saw you punching someone near the school"
"Um, Akane" Misaki try to interfere
"Come on, Misaki. I bet she's just words and not-" Before Akane could finish, Murasaki punches her right in the face and Akane fall to the ground. She didn't get up after that. Everyone saw that, but no one say a word. Murasaki looks at them and then at her phone, and walk away. Misaki and Haruka look at Akane, she was knocked down. Some students whisper as soon Murasaki walks away.
"Is she dead?" "I don't think so... But you heard that punch?! That must hurt a lot!" "I feel sorry for that girl" The students gossip loudly. Misaki ignores them and check on Akane. Murasaki punch her right in the left eye.
"What do we do now?" Misaki asks and sigh
"Let's take her with the nurse" Misaki and Haruka takes Akane to the Nurse Office.
School finish very quickly for Akane, thanks to Murasaki. She spend a couple of hours in the Nurse Office with a black eye. Misaki and Haruka stay with her most of the time but eventually they have to go to class. Now Akane was laying in one of the beds in the Nurse Office and looking at the ceiling. She could feel the pain coming out from her left eye.
"Well, i deserve it" She said and get up. The Office was empty. She take out her phone and check her email. There was a message but it was from an unknown number. Akane open it and regret it. It was Annabelle...
"Hey, How are you doing? :3 Listen, this is important. When you have the time, can you come to the velvet room? We need to discuss something about your power that i forgot to tell you" Akane sigh and was about to delete the message but other arrive. It was Annabelle again. "Nice black eye. It suits you ;D And it's so cute too" Akane's eyes widen and jump out of the bed to look around.
"That bitch! How did she know?!" She almost yell
"Because i'm behind you" Annabelle appear out of nowhere and Akane fall to the ground
"H-How?!"
"Because i want to? Anything is possible when you want it" She explain, even if it didn't make sense at all.
"That doesn't make sense at all, you are crazy" Akane get up
"Thanks. My older brother and sisters said the same exact thing. I think they are just jelaous because i rule over the power and possibility"
"Sorry, but i still don't understand"
"Good, stay like that. Maybe at the end of the year, you'll understand what i'm saying"
"No, i don't understand because you are such a... Forget it. I'm not in the mood to fight. Just tell me what you need to tell me about my powers and leave"
"I'll tell you later because my master is the one that have to explain it to you"
"Then why are you here?!"
"To bother you" Annabelle said with a big smile. Akane throw her pillow at her and she dodge it. "See you later" She disappear
"Come back here!" Akane yell but Annabelle was gone already. "If she do that again, i'll kill her"
