For the first time in his life, someone actually called him crazy for the first time, in a way that everyone who had heard his conversation with Arthur would have said the same thing.
For someone who's most of his life revolved around combat, the atmosphere of the school and the pace they trained that made life sort of what is the word... oh yes dull. That is the word dull, mind numbingly boring, that what led Kazuya to have a tea break with Arthur.
He was no help for the first 10 minutes. If he loved Ganessa that much marry her already was the only thing he could think as Arthur sung praises about his pandora.
Arthur did love Ganessa but he had a double meaning. He had hoped to motivate Kazuya into finding a pandora and forming a partnership. Little did he know Elizabeth was behind that idea in a major way.
"Don't you wish sometimes a couple of Nova would attack a nearby city? The chance for some good combat. That would make my day!" Kazuya told him as Arthur stopped his 50th explanation on the virtues of Ganessa Roland.
Arthur could hardly believe what he had heard. "Are you out of your mind or did someone slip something into that tea cup when I wasn't looking? I think what the sanest person would hope is that these peaceful days continued. Not that those monsters attack a city. What is the matter with you! You lost your sister to those things and you miss them?"
Kazuya had to agree, but he needed something to keep him more occupied. If it wasn't for the sparring matches between himself and Elizabeth he would be really going out of his mind.
The situation with Andre was not helping matters any. I mean come on hidden explosives in his gym locker, poison in his water bottle, and broken glass on the floor of his bathroom. These were child pranks if he was really wanting to kill him do something more serious.
Try and think beyond the obvious. He kept the badly placed explosives and poison. He figured that if the situation continued he would use what he was so kindly left for him and really teach the slacker a lesson on making traps.
Elizabeth was getting better and better in close combat and it was thanks to her Kazuya. Hey, wait a minute, since when did she start calling him hers? she wondered. Well, it did not matter for her he really was hers.
But she needed to find a special way to tell him her feelings. He was a great fighter, wonderful with strategy, but when it can to noticing the advances she was making.
Nothing, he noticed nothing. Not the make and perfume, not the way she changed how she used her uniform to accentuate her figure, yep he was really dense. But what do you expect when a guy spends most of his early childhood thinking on how to kill instead of how cute the girl are in class.
Satellizer had gotten the feeling that Kazuya was sticking her in the most dreaded place for men. She definitely felt like he was already giving her permanent residence in the friends only zone.
At the very least he was more friendly with her than with Ganessa. She challenged him to so many duels and she lost every single one.
It finally came to end when after getting tired of hearing her scream obscenities in a language that would make sailors blush, that he said the final comment, "If you can't decide to use a civil language, I will consider the next time actual combat, and if I do that the next time I see you will be your funeral."
Kazuya left a very scared Ganessa. She started to actually avoid him. Ask Arthur if maybe he could apologize for her, which ended up in failure. He told his friend that if she wanted to apologize to do so herself.
The week seemed to finally come to a close when he found himself in a situation he really was happy about.
Elizabeth had decided to train with him in a simulated Nova battle. He could concentrate on close quarters and she used her weapon to take care of long range combat. It had been a truly enjoyable experience. Andre saw the two walking outside of the center with a light sweat on their brows.
He being the pig that he was believed the wrong thing. He imagined that they used the excuse of training to actually used the simulator for something more intimate. He believed in the bottom of his perverted soul that they spent the time making love instead of training.
He had never even gotten that far, and he was her limiter. Kazuya had to die and he could not die quickly enough for his liking.
"Well, we took care of six rank S Nova rather efficiently. I do believe that we might have set a new school record," said Elizabeth while smiling. "It is dangerous to be overconfident and underestimate the enemy. Trust me the Nova we fought would be meek in comparison to the real Nova." Elizabeth wondered something.
"So you really did fight a lot of different Nova after all." Kazuya simply held his stoic look and did not answer. He did not like to talk about it, combat was never pretty and he had a nice time with her. Why would he want to ruin it by mentioning how many people he saw die, or how horrible the place looked after the battle.
"Elizabeth, have you talked with your Limiter?" Elizabeth looked at him with a bit of a surprised look on her face. "No, I haven't why? Did that blockhead do something like before?" Kazuya began shaking his head, "I think he is imagining things and it could lead to trouble for him and you."
Elizabeth heard the tone of concern for her the first time since she knew him, and could not help to feel happy about it. She took him in her arms, it would look like a very warm and loving hug.
"Imagine what exactly?" Elizabeth asked as he looked at him with a hopeful look. "He keeps thinking that I am trying to have a romantic relationship with you, I mean I know we are good friends, but I don't think you are in love with me."
She was now sure, he was really dense in these matters, she would have to take the first step or they really will be stuck as friends.
He came closer and the hug became an embrace. "I think you are blind to some things. I do love you, more than you possibly know or have noticed." She did not give him a chance to react or reply she took the risk and she kissed him passionately on his lips.
She was afraid that he would reject her until she felt that he too was kissing her back. Andre was now madder than ever, he took his cellphone and took a picture of the two kissing. He believed that this would be the proof he needed to justify his attempt to murder the pest. How wrong he was, and how dumb for not sticking around.
What became an enjoyable training session, became the start of a secret romance. But with the way gossip spreads in West Genetics, everyone would know of it sooner than the pair would have believed.
Kazuya went into his dorm room with such a smile, that Arthur who was waiting for him had to say it. "Did something good happen today or did you get assigned to the chevalier already?"
Kazuya simply told him something wonderful and nothing could make him feel bad tonight. How wrong he was. On a building across from the dorm, on the roof was Andre with a rifle and scope. He aimed at his enemies heart and pulled the trigger. In a matter of a mere second, the room was in a wide freezing field. The freezing had caused the bullet to be suspended in mid-flight.
Kazuya looked at it and saw, hollow point with a plutonium coating. Kazuya knew where the bullet came from as he followed the trajectory. He appeared right next to a very shocked Andre.
"Now that is more like it, loved the detail of the ammo selection. Andre, you really are improving." Andre took his time and tried to stab him with a poisoned knife. He evaded, grabbed him and slammed him on the roof.
"But you still have so much to learn. Andre, why do you feel the need to waste my time?" Kazuya looked at him as he was trying to get up from the where he was. "Elizabeth is mine! I told you if you try and steal her and you would die."
Andre shouted not caring who heard him. Kazuya's friendly demeanor dropped and he looked at him with pure murder for the first time. Andre could not help but to shake out of fear.
"Look I don't have much time for this at the moment. So how about this instead, we have a duel and we can put this issue to rest. If you win I will die, but if I win you will confess your attempts at killing me to the headmistress of the academy? Deal or do I take care of you right now?"
Andre knew that the way he was acting he would kill him in less than a second. In a duel, he would not use any limiter or pandora abilities. He had to make sure he promised that.
Kazuya agreed on no limiter or pandora abilities from either side. A pure human abilities duel. He agreed to the terms Andre suggested and they both agreed on Monday morning they would hold the duel at the training center.
Kazuya left and Andre was standing grinning. Kazuya would lose and die, and Elizabeth would be still his and only his. Never underestimate your enemy and always look beneath the underneath. Those were the last pieces of advice his favorite teacher gave him. He would make Andre see real combat, and see him face the music afterward. Believe it!
