Well, and now, here's the chapter...
Inferno
''Chaos?'' I asked narrowing my eyebrows ''What are you talking about?''
''You didn't hear? Another student went missing''
''What?''
''What? But, h-how?'' I asked surprised and horrified.
''We don't know. But it's the third one already…'' She answered lowering her gaze.
I didn't say anything; I just stood there, glaring at the sky, confused by my own emotions and the situation.
''I… we should go back inside'' I murmured looking at her. She gazed at me silently, but nodded. I could feel her concern about the situation and I fought to hide mine.
''Alright, let's go''
We started walking towards the main salon. We were silent during all the way. There was not much to say anyway.
''Ah, I almost forget'' Said suddenly Reira breaking the silence. ''Rikako Oryou asked me again to join her club, but since I started taking classes after school as a dancer, I'm not available anymore, but maybe you could…''
I frowned knowing where this was leading to.
''I already said no to that. I don't like her, and I'm not into art that much'' I replied as calm as I could.
''C'mon, she asked nicely, and I think she would be really happy if you passed by her club'' She insisted staring at me with puppy eyes.
''Reira...'' I tried to shut her up.
''She seems really happy about her work'' She continued ''It wouldn't be really rude not to...''
''Okay!'' I cut her. ''Stop it already! I'll go, but just to watch her work and tell her straight that I won't join her club, not now, not ever''
She smiled at my outbrust.
''I knew you weren't heartless'' She mocked me and I glared at her.
''Oh, shut up''
We continued walking down the corridor, heading to our next class.
After a long day, the afternoon finally arirved, and the classes ended. The students started leaving to go to their club activities or dorms. I sighed lazily and took a different road, walking towards the room of the art club.
That part of the school was always really quiet. I looked around, and stopped in front of the door. In the wooden door it was a painting of a red rose. It was beautiful and very realistic. I wondered if Rikako painted it.
Then I sighed again, trying to remember why was I doing this… but finally I knocked on the door, and opened it softly. The room was bathed by the afternoon warm sunlight. The class was quiet too. I looked around and finally spoted her in one extrem of the room, under the window. There she was, Rikako Oryou. The sun bathed her gracile figure, she looked even more perfect under it. She was sitting on a chair, painting quietly. When she heard the door open, she turned to see me.
''Shiori, you came'' she said with a weak smile and soft voice ''Come in'' She said when I didn't come inside and stopped next to the frame of the door.
I closed the door behind me, obeying, and walked inside.
''Are you working in a new painting?'' I asked trying to start a conversation as I walked towards her.
''Yes, this one is really special'' She explained without stopping to paint. I walked towards her. I couldn't see her art from there, so I just stayed still. She smiled, but wasn't looking at me. ''I've been working in it for a while now, it's my master piece''
''Can I… can I see it?'' I asked politely, a little bit curious. She stopped painting and looked up at me, with a smile. But, somehow, that smile made me feel uneasy, it was like she was waiting for me to ask that.
''Of course you can, although it's not finished yet'' Then, she got up of the chair. I bit my lip and took a step forward to admire her art. She smiled and then turned it to me so I could see it.
When I saw the painting I felt as if all the air in my lungs had been taken out. An irrational fear took over my body.
Horror.
I couldn't move, I couldn't think. I froze in place.
''W-what's…?''
''Do you like it?'' She asked. I could feel cruelty and excitement in her voice ''It's you''
It was me. I was nude in the middle of the painting trapped in a cage of rosebushes with thorns nailed in my skin. Blood was running down my arms, and legs, my stomach and chest. My empty and dead eyes looked at the ground were she had drawn white roses stained with a red liquid.
I took a step behind, paralyzed, and touched the table I had next to me, some papers that were resting on it fell to the floor. I looked at it, and brought a hand to my mouth, trying not to scream. There were paintings of the students that disappeared recently. They were nude and… mutilated…
''You don't like my collection Shiori-san?''
I turned to her, she was right in front of me. I wanted to run away from her, but before I could even move, I felt an intense pain on my neck, and my vision started to blur. Rikako Oryou smirked at me, and then I fell, losing consciousness.
That was the last think I saw, her cruel smirk and empty eyes looking at me with crude sadism.
How was it? Did you like it?
There wasn't interactions with Makishima in this one, but Rikako revealed her true nature! What will happen to Shiori now?
If you liked it, please leave a review, it helps me a lot and makes me really happy! Any thought you want to share, even if you want to ask something about the fic! or corrections and consctructive criticism, via review or PM :)
