Chapter 3: Neko
Sfx: Sigh!
I can't believe this! They are from overseas but why do they need to sleep in my apartment?! Don't they have a luxurious condos or something?
Ugh! And even if i don't want too, they will start training me for a damn reason! I hate it! I hate this! Uwaaaaaaaah!! Why did I even picked that freaking mask?!!
My eyes started to get heavier as I continuously rant and shout in my head. The darkness covered my vision as I swam in my deep slumber...
Sfx: Jog, jog, jog, jog!
Why is my couch moving?? Am I dreami---
" Fuck's sake! Wake up!" I felt the gravity pulling me down that made me open my eyes.
I felt a small pain in my butt as I hit the ground. I glared at Amos but he just gave me a 'don't care' look. Damn this guy!
" Move. We'll start our training." I didn't say anything and just helped myself stood up. My butt hurts ╥﹏╥
" Most important lesson in fighting. When facing a strong opponent, you run." I didn't wait for any signal and just jog my way out. I don't wanna do this but it's better than nothing.
" Lesson two, fight like your life depends on it." Nellie suddenly throw a kick but luckily I manage to dodge...or so I thought =_=
" Lesson thr---"
" Wait, wait, wait! Schools about to start! Let's go home!" After cutting Amos out, I immediately ran but the bastard is absurdly fast that I can't keep track on him.
" He's having fun." Nellie said while running.
" Amos?" I almost laughed hearing that. All I can see is a son of a bitch bastard who keeps on bitching out on me.
" He might be impulsive but it's just to hide his own feelings." I just shrug after hearing that.
I can't judge him, can I? I mean, he's also a human after all. Although he's quite special, things are not easy to obtain.
My brow raised as we entered my apartment. The fragrant smell of garlic rice is everywhere. My tummy starts grumbling as my appetite began to stimulate.
" You cook way too fast, Amos" Nellie said while serving some food on her own plate.
" What? I thought you were the one who cooked this?" Amos replied with his right brow raised.
" Huh?! How can I cook when we were outside training Nats?" Nellie's curious voice acted like an arrow that strucked our heads.
(☉｡☉)!

" Oh? You guys are already here!" Said by a furry black cat with an ocean blue eyes. Quarts of its tail it white which makes it more adorable....only if it's not a talking cat =_=
" Is this a new version of the cooking rat?" Nellie whispered which makes me chuckle a bit.
" Worry not, I also received a calling." The cat assured us which makes Amos continue munching his food.
" I hope the noms are okay." He jumped on the table and pulled a bacon just next to him." Anyways, you can address me as Eight and I am one of your protector."
" Wow, I never thought that a cat can be a protector!" Nellie clapped as if she is being entertained.
" You got to move. School's about to start." I stood up hurriedly as I heard the word school.
*****
' I-I made it...' I am continuously panting while heading to my designated seat.
Amos seems to be calm and collected unlike me which looked like a rugged cloth. Gaaaah! If we only did the shitty training on weekends!
After five minutes, the class has begun and it seems like a normal day for me. Selene never showed up again after that incident and weird thing is, no one seems to noticed. It's like they never knew Selene.
Time flies very fast and class is already over. Way back my normal days, time used to be so slow that I wish it'll race it's way but now....I take it back (╥﹏╥)
" Let's go." I was appalled after seeing Amos waiting for me.
Ohh! The lion is transforming into a kit---
We heard a loud sound of explosion near us that makes me cower in fear. Amos pulled me outside only to find out the other guy yesterday.
He is above a small crater which I guess is the cause of explosion just a while ago.
" Are yo---"
" Stand back!" Amos shut me out and suddenly plunge towards the other guy.
His shoes burned up as well as half of his pants. A shackles with a chain connected in it seems to be Amos's weapon.
" Burn to ashes!" Amos shouts as the chain extend and emit a raging fire.
The small petite guy was fast and managed to avoid the attack." Tsk!" He clicked his tongue and suddenly vanished in our sight.
" You good?" He asked when he get near me.
" Why did you suddenly attacked him?" I asked hesitantly. Amos looks so pissed right now.
" Yohan will do no good. He might assassinate you so be careful around him." My brows furrowed as I hear him bad mouthing the Yohan guy.
Something's odd....(￣ヘ￣;)
" Amos, what happened?!" I was taken a back when Nellie landed right beside me.
Where did she came from?!!
" Yohan showed up." He simply said and walked out.
Sfx: Sigh!
I can only sigh after that sudden encounter. Nellie seems to be in her own sighing phase too.
" What do you think of Yohan?" Out of the blue, she asked.
" I-I....I don't know." That's right. I don't even have a so called first impression on him. He saved me but Amos said he might kill me.
" Can you imagine that petite little guy killing.... massacring his own group?" This time a clear image seems to enter my head.
" Y-yes." I just remembered him knocking out the big bulky guy when we first met. He seems to be more powerful than Amos himself.
Nellie smiled. A sad smile that makes me wonder if certain things." Unfortunately, he really din massacred every member of his group. Even his very own king." She gave me a reassuring smile that makes me wonder even more.
" He is a big news that Colosseum ever had. Yohan does not have a place to stay. His powers is also sealed with a God knows what reason is. Everyone sees him as a disgusting trash but I can see there's something more about the story." She stopped and stretched her hands.
" Ara! Sorry about that. I was just---"
" I think I understand." I don't know, but my heart seems to ache after hearing such story.
Sfx: Cling!
The sound of bell instantly made me jump back. My sense is quite sensitive to that hideous sound.
Nellie's boots emitted a blinding green color as it transform into something. The heel of her boots is attached to a huge curve blade which I think is very sharp.
How the heck is she balancing?!
ヽ((◎д◎))ゝ
" Hold onto me Nats!" She suddenly grabbed my hands and propelled her way up above.
" Aaaaahhhhh!!!" ミ●﹏☉ミ
" Hold on tight!" She said as she jump from a building to another.
How in the hell is she doing this?!!!
" Seems like you have a handful servant, eh?" Nellie stopped as we face the one who owns that bitchy voice.
We are at the end of the foothold and anytime now, we might fall from he--- Kyaaaaaaaaahhhh!!!!
" We're falling! We're falling! We're fall---" We ain't falling down?
" Leave this place, Nyan. I'll take care of this." Eight's suddenly passed through us and it seems like he's going to confront the enemy.
Nellie did not waste any second and drifted away using her most hateful power. Kyaaaaaaaaahhhh!!!
