Well, not really, I don't overlook it. -Violet
Thank you Violet for your cooperation. -Mr. Bence
Maria, don't you want to be with Violet? -Darius
YES, MR. BENCE! HE IS RIGHT! -Maria
No, to both of you. Now we have roughly *He narrowed his eyes calculating how much time would be left* Sirinqety lirs. Everyone discuss what your performance will be based on. -Mr. Bence
Darius had an overwrought look on his face. Violet bore her laugh from reverberating through the auditorium, for an unusual reason his unsettled reaction was very familiar to Violet, Darius walked toward her, wiggling his hair, left and right, Violet began looking at the ground immediately. He pulled her by the wrist, walking her away from the stage.
What do you want from me? -Darius
What do you mean? -Violet
WHY DO YOU WANT TO OPERATE WITH ME? -Darius
Are you this lonely, seems like working with someone is something new to you, aw. -Violet
Oh my goodness, why did you want to collaborate on this performance with me? -Darius
Answer my question before you get a response. Did you tell the academy about me going to earth? -Violet
Yes, I did, and do you have an issue with that? -Darius
Yes, I do, who are you exactly? Who are you to dish around the academy? -Violet
A prince, sweetheart, this whole enormous academy is in my father's inheritance, actually, let me be more unmistakable with you, I own everything. This necklace you're wearing, I can throw it away, and you can't do anything about it. -Darius
He began touching the golden necklace Violet had been wearing. That necklace wasn't only the last memorable thing Violet had left from her father, but the only thing she remembers earth by having "Back off" she said pushing Darius in a sort of way of defense.
Don't touch me, and you certainly are not allowed to touch my necklace. -Violet
She said pointing her finger at him, whilst her brown eyes were turning furious red.
Wow, you genuinely are mad huh? Calm down Viol. -Darius
DON'T CALL ME BY THAT NAME. -Violet
Just a little reminder. I don't consider it at all, it-it's not like that name matters to you. -Darius
Yeah, it doesn't. Now you dragged me here to just trigger me? -Violet
Of course not, my brain is not the size of a peanut to waste anytime here with you. Why were you out of the castle at midnight yesterday? -Darius
Wh- my God, I don't know, go ask your awful father. -Violet
Hold your tongue, where is the respect for the all-mighty king? Do you know something? I always just think about whether you're kahili or human, and I'm pretty sure you're a human. -Darius
And I was pretty sure you're a donkey, and still am sure. -Violet
Say that to your "Best friend, Jake" he looks like a donkey without fur. -Darius
You look like a bear. -Violet
No, I look like an angel. -Darius
Say that sentence to your navy wings, and I'm certain that there wouldn't be a friendly agreement. -Violet
Forget about a peanut, your brain is the size of the real deal, the pea itself. -Darius
I'd say that to you. -Violet
But a smart person wouldn't sneak out of the castle at midnight. -Darius
What are you- I didn't sneak out, were you watching me? For sure you were, you stalked me on earth you'd stalk me here as well. -Violet
How can it count as stalking when someone opens the door of each room, come on. You just don't know how to sneak out, one day I'll teach you how to precisely. -Darius
She began smiling, but they still didn't even discuss what to do for the performance, about six minutes gone just like that, and she then said
Can we talk about our performance instead of this stupid topic? -Violet
You picked me as a partner, so that'll be your problem. -Darius
How about we perform-
Nothing, nothing at all. -Darius
For a second, Violet thought he was stating a joke, but he was being sincere, "Nothing?" What exactly was he going for, Violet ignored what he said, and was thinking hard. Working on something historical was probably going to get declined by Darius's "Smart logic" But she had to give it a go, working on such an idea, would help Violet uncover more information she couldn't read from the book "A Falling wings"
I was thinking *She pressured on the word thinking* that we should do a short act regarding the history of Aquene maybe? -Violet
eh no, I'm not doing that with you. -Darius
THEN WHAT DO YOU WANT?! -Violet
Drive you crazy, I know why you're doing this, and no Violet, you can't avenge your dignity, you have none. -Darius
I'm not here to make friends with you, nor to draw your attention, I'm here to finish the assignment. -Violet
For heaven's sake, stop hiding your truth away. Just admit it already, your holding a grievance over why I and Azazel told the academy about your dumb incident. -Darius
Well, he was right, Violet could've spoken to Mr. Bence, and told him that she would mind working with Darius, although, she chose to fulfill her hate toward him, but how did he get her thoughts valid, it reminded her of when Queen Iris had answered a question, she didn't state out loud. She had glued herself to the wrong person, he will undoubtedly make her life a living hell, there has to be some way to persuade him to just work quietly, the issue is VIOLET BARELY KNOWS ANYTHING ABOUT HIM! Does he sneak out? Is there something he hides from his parents? What is it that he hides?
I know what you did yesterday night. -Violet
Violet spat out the dumbest words in history "WHAT DID HE EVEN DO YESTERDAY" She blackmailed him, in the worst way possible, she was cringing, and she felt completely humiliated, if he responds by saying that he wasn't doing anything, that would be so awkward and would show how desperation she is to get under his skin, and that wasn't something she wanted.
What- How- who told you? -Darius
I- um- I saw you doing it. You either work quietly on what I'm asking you to, or I'll be telling your- your parents about this. -Violet
Fine then *He said clinching his teeth*, in return, you better stay away from Azazel, you don't want to be disclosed, right. -Darius
Huh, Azazel? Why? -Violet
Let's just say, he isn't a person of enjoyment, and you don't need to know the rationale for everything. -Darius
Yes, I do, when everyone is acting in this weird quirky way. -Violet
If it helps, take it as a tip. -Darius
I'm not interested in your "tips". -Violet
You shouldn't care, just take it as it is. -Darius
Regarding the performance, I want to do it all about the history of Aquene. -Violet
YOU *Laughs* nice joke sweetheart. -Darius
I'm not messing around, or at least maybe a story relating to Aquene. -Violet
Darius seemed to be sniggering, with a broad smile with his teeth, but was disappointed, he stopped leaning on the wall, and stood upright, facing Violet, taller than Violet in approximately four centimeters, he then said
Are you sure you want to work on it, I can literally get a passing grade without the-
Yes, I want to. -Violet
Your choice. I'll talk with father about the storyline. -Darius
Why it's a simple act, right? -Violet
Violet, confounded about what he was planning, Violet began smelling a certain scent, a scent of disappointment "What is this smell?" She asked herself.
Sure it is, but you know, we need some props to fit the act. -Darius
Oh okay, can you just share what the act is about? -Violet
That'll be for later. -Darius
I don't trust you, at all. -Violet
That's good, let me fix that sentence for you: you shouldn't trust anyone. -Darius
I only distrust people such as yourself. -Violet
It doesn't work that way, sweetheart. -Darius
That word "sweetheart" was biting Violet continually, how long can she be able to hold all these emotions from bursting like an inflating balloon? In the middle of the "Talk" Mr. Bence was seen conversing with someone in an audible voice.
A human? Why am I being informed just now? -Mr. Bence
It happened lefliexs ago, you were temporarily suspended from employment at that time. -?
Oh no, *he placed his hands on his forehead* so you're asking for precautions? -Mr. Bence
Yes, I am. -?
The figure of the kahili seemed to get clearer, a woman wearing a prestigious outfit like she had been the chief of something, gloves on her waist, an odd-looking gun pocketed inside of her jacket, and her jacket had a special embroidery "Head of-
And the rest was covered by her angling the buzz on her left, and her blonde hair tied into a bun. She handed him a formal envelope written: "from king Angun to Mr. Bence Clark."
Do not unfold it here, you are one of the people I personally trust, so just- be careful of the students to spill rumors. -?
Fine then. How is Nid-
Darius suddenly pushed his hands against Violet's ear, taking a look at the same area Violet was supposedly catching some whispers, and then waving directly to someone. He was blocking the chat she was overhearing. She couldn't tell what exactly was he trying to do, Violet tried to resist him touching her ears. "STOP IT" She screamed, and he let go.
WHAT WERE YOU DOING?! -Violet
Oops, sorry, thought you felt cold. -Darius
What are you even talking about? -Violet
You know it's snowing? right? Happen to think you would need some earmuffs, but fortunately- I mean unfortunately you seemed cold. -Darius
How? Wait it's not snowing. -Violet
Yes, it is, look outside. -Darius
Violet could've sworn that the sun's assertive shine was being hit on her face. Something was up for sure, she missed the juicy chat that can come once in a while, and of course, Darius had to be the one ruining it.
It was snowing, at least that's what Violet saw. Everything seemed to be soo over the place, nothing was coming consecutively, neither was it make sense
Gotta go. -Darius
Violet pulled him by the hand, stopping him in place "ugh" he said as he had been in a history lesson, Violet completed.
What are you doing? -Violet
Leaving the auditorium. -Darius
The bell didn't ring yet, so we have more time. -Violet
He looked really tense, tenser than Violet ever saw him acting. "Why exactly is he in such a rush?" Violet was brooding to herself, he just looked at Violet tapping his expensive shoes on the floor, waiting impatiently for anything else Violet had to say.
Who is that lady over there? -Violet
I- How am I supposed to know? Figure that out for yourself. -Darius
Why did you do that then? -Violet
Do what? -Darius
Why did you cover my ears like that? -Violet
I told you, it's cold, and your lips seem to turn blue. -Darius
They aren't. What did you tell Azazel to do? -Violet
I didn't tell Azazel to do anything *he bent his neck to Violet* You should start to grasp that you aren't some main character of a story, nothing revolves around you. -Darius
Violet just stood frozen, "A main character?" That sentence pretty much made no sense to her. She is no main character for sure, "a main character isn't a person which suffers, right?" She thought "A main character is a person with wealth and luck." There was no clarification as to what a protagonist of a story really meant, she recalls her friends saying that to who was pretty irritative, aka kelly.
"I'm not a main character" she screamed, it took her some seconds to actually realize that she just showed an actual hostile emotion, "CONTAIN YOURSELF" she reproached herself, out loud as well. Darius giggled lightly, she walked away, with her face seeming like she had a makeover using blush on her face only. "Pathetic," Darius said muttering, Violet bumped past Azazel, and he gripped her sleeve.
Could I talk with you? -Violet
Violet recognized what Darius told her "Do not trust Azazel." Does she accept? Or just ignore Azazel and proceed walking to Maria.
The lesson is ending after a few minutes. -Violet
I know that, what were you talking about with Darius? -Azazel
And why do you supervise? -Violet
I'm just really prying. -Azazel
In a topic that doesn't include you whatsoever? What do you want? -Violet
I want you as my partner. -Azazel
Huh?- What? -Violet
Does he want her as his partner? "WHERE DID THAT EVEN COME FROM?!" she questioned herself, his and Darius's actions were getting very vague from time to time. Darius was staring at her from the corner of the auditorium, and Azazel was right in front of her.
That's a no, we can't change our duo members, Mr. Bence made it explicit, it's not really a decision in my hands. -Violet
You know he's hazardous, You Shouldn't rely upon him. -Azazel
The same is supposed to go for you, Azazel. -Violet
She really didn't want to stay hopped in a conversation that would end in yelling, both were certainly rivals, and the two of them gave her a weird sentiment, a very comfortable one, on the other hand, they weren't acting like grown boys, they were acting more like kids around her, not goofy, but very upsetting behavior. She walked forward to Maria, looking around, and then behind her, Azazel and Darius were having a discussion that was not heard at all.
Hey! What happened? Darius, then Azazel? -Maria
I'm interrogating it like you are. -Violet
A person such as Violet isn't living a systematized life, everything is a dump, one tells a lie and the other tells another one. It's like the boy who cried wolf, each lie that is told is not helping to believe what they claim to be the reality.
What will you choose for your performance? -Maria
I don't know. -Violet
How don't you know? -Maria
I actually do not know, Darius said that he would "keep it a surprise" -Violet
Are you absurd? He is going to ruin everything. -Maria
What if he really does have a great idea, I can't give an assumption to his interaction without-
Violet, I know him very well, and he isn't a kind-hearted person, that is another reason why I wanted you and me to work together. -Maria
I don't trust him, and I don't forgive him. -Violet
For what? -Maria
Yo-you haven't heard? He and Azazel spread a-a rumor. -Violet
Oh yeah, that, but Violet, taking vengeance on them, always would backfire. -Maria
Who even said that I'm-I'm holding a childish grudge over what they did, I just wanna irritate them. -Violet
The same will go for you, Violet, you got yourself in trouble, horrendous trouble. -Maria
I'm not afraid of them, they aren't my-my parents or something. -Violet
That's exactly what I said two years ago, and it didn't end well. -Maria
What did they both do? -Violet
"The-they" the short glimpses of flashbacks were being played into Maria's head. Students laughing, falling into a puddle of mud, and tearing rose petals. Violet might've gotten herself into the trap of her enemies, but it's all too delinquent, she already is here at the academy, she already left earth, she already is exposed, she already is left confused, and she had always been already shamed, she already faced Mr. Bence and told him unhesitant that she is fine with working with the heart of hate, Darius, the bell rang, Darius and Azazel were still settled within their long conversation, Darius had his two hands determining, Azazel whispered something to his ear that made them stare at Violet for a few seconds, and took again to their "conversation" that seemed like an argument that was preventing the flame of a fight. Violet was so submerged in what they had been doing. Maria was shaking her shoulder, and had that "Please be okay!" Expression.
Why are you looking over there? -Maria
Nothing, how many minutes are left? -Violet
Didn't you hear the bell? We finished today! -Maria
Oh, really?! So I can go back to the castle? -Violet
No, you have to first claim your assignments and then head to where you want to go. -Maria
The smile on Violet's face grew more and more, finally, this day can be over, this was her first time completing a normal day at the academy without running away, crying, or having all the academy's eyes set on her.
