Cold and rude. One of the few descriptions that perfectly fits with my sister.
Ice Princess. It was her title given by those who knew her and nicknames rarely gets wrong.
If this is a novel then she would be the cliché third rate villainess.
And what is happening in front of me right now was a scene straight out of a third-rate romantic story.
"...W-What?"
Golden locks like those of pure gold, face so cute that she would be second in my list, and probably also has a good personality too base on how she acts in the school.
Lana Raids a beauty, but not as beautiful as my sister. She currently has a stupid look while clutching her reddened cheek, it must have hurt as I heard the slap echoed in these remote woods of the school.
"Why did you slap me?"
I am a bit skeptical but with her not losing temper after she got hurt without a reason maybe I could vouch for her good girl card, especially when there were no people around the two, well except me.
"Why ask when you know the reason?"
It looks like my sister is a bit angry, even though her expression and voice did not even change when saying that, she does like to not get straight to the point when she's mad. Poor girl.
"What reason? Did I do something wrong against you?"
Trace of guilt can be heard from her voice, if before I was hesitating now I am 99.99% sure that she is an angel. Unfortunately for her the enemy she's facing is a girl that the devil would fear.
A bone chilling cold brush my neck all of sudden, shuddering I held my breath. It seemed the instincts of the lioness are working on point, better be careful as I don't want to be hunted today.
"Yeah you did. And people who commit crimes like you are sentenced with 10 curses of 'Bitch' everyday, I pardoned you after doing that but you cow did not learned and even committed crime much heinous than a murder, that is why you should be judged like one. So Miss Titscher what do you think the punishment that I should give you?"
I rate it 7.5/10. The pun did not go well with her voice that lacks emotion and her eyes that brings freezing pressure to anyone she looks.
Poor Lana she's shaking like a little white rabbit in front of hunter with a loaded bazooka in her. Its a bit overkill and she would probably do it as I saw her hand move towards the hidden pocket of her skirt.
Right, its not only Ice Queen I also gave her another fitting title, Crazy Bitch.
I guess its time to made my entrance. I hope my charm still works and her eyes did not gone red, it's still early for me to die after all.
"Cough!"
I hope it sounded naturnal. I stood out of my hidden spot in the bush that smell funny and familiar. Smile, show her a good smile.
"Oh, hey Lea! And Lana too, what a weird pair. Why are you two here? Did something happened?"
I walked not towards my sister but towards the poor girl's side, our mother told us not get too close to people especially when they have blade hidden in their clothes. It should be a deep saying about betrayals but it was something literal here.
My prescense seemed to have this angel slowly calm down yet she was still experiencing the after effects of someone who just survived from a serial killer.
Oh my beloved sister narrowed her eyes at me but I did not flinched instead faced it with innocence of a passerby that accidentally passed a (almost) murder scene. I showed calmness of a Buddha on the outside and shivering from the creeping fear like a horror movie's extra on the inside.
"You go back to the campus I'll handle this one."
I whispered to Lana acting like a hero that would sacrife his life for an innocent cow, no dog.
It seemed that my voice was not even loud enough to reach her ears as it took me 3 more times before she heard it, I hope the other one did not or....
"...T-Thank you."
She look to be genuinely grateful with my offer and she was ready to bolt out of here as fast as she can but before that I held her wrist and looked straight into her eyes.
"Don't tell anyone what happened here."
Lana was about to open her mouth but she suddenly stopped as frown appeared on her fragile face, it appears that she is hurt.
"Now go. Next time be careful with girls like her."
Hearing what I said she flashed away without even looking back at the saviour who sacrificed for her.
My confidence in her being a good girl lowered by 0.01 % because of that.
"I think I already gave you enough time, so Ter what are you doing here? And what did you think you just did?"
Its look like the boss fight is finally starting, and this boss was certainly not easy. What's worse than having a monster that had huge HP, hard to dodge AOE, an auto aim one hit skill, and that everytime 10% of its health are loss its attack patterns would change.
I can describe its traits that would make it an unbeatable boss but the person I am facing would not like it.
"Calm down first Lea. I'm only here because I don't want you to do something you will regret."
I hope my hand gestures that I am doing would make her a bit more sane. I read that hand motions can calm others down in some website I forgot.
"I already had a plan, it will be just another missing person case. If you did not want me to have a regret then you just did."
I gulped at her words, it sounded like a joke but I fear that she might do it.
I just remembered that the page I read was about was about pets, that's probably why it did not work on human especially like her.
It looks like I need to stop the funny act now and bring in the big guns.
"Stop talking like a psycho Lea. Do you think that Alfred would like to see you acting like this?"
Oh she flinched and hesitation flashed in her eyes, what a truly useful magic words.
Alfred Ness, the root cause of this charade and my sister's fiance. She was not like this everytime as she is more of a calculative woman yet I don't know why this girl becomes a stupid bitch each time its about about that guy.
Love is scary it makes people mad. Words of a great person I say.
However at the end of it she's still my sister, no matter how crazy and stupid she is when it comes to love I will support her.
I will be the best wingman, her support, and I will make it so that she will have the best wedding ever with the man that perfects her.
To finally nail the coffin and seal this scene I walked closer to her to give her a reminder that would douse her with a cold water, I hope that with this she will wake up.
"He is your fiance for god's sake, everything is already arranged long ago you will be with him and he'll be with you. So don't cause a scene like this, you don't want something like these to be the reason for your break up do you?"
As I slowly moved closer her ice-like expression slowly cracks showing me a vulnerable sight of the girl I looked up to. I hated her love but moments like this was the reason I am supporting her.
She is someone to be loved.
"...But what about the other girls? They are...pretty and have great personality too. I could lose Alfred to them, that's why—"
"No you won't lose him, you worry too much about girls like Lana that you are forgetting to care for yourself first. You already have a great headstart with him so don't waste your time looking back to the turtles behind and focus to your race, you are not stupid like a rabbit, if you don't slack you'll win."
I narrowed the distance to where a master of Iai could easily remove my head and let it experience my last amusement ride. Then I gave the lioness a pat on her head.
"And if he too gone stupid like a shitty made characters from the saturated market of fantasy romance novels then do not worry, I will not marry you but there should be someone out there who would because you are a lovely girl, Lea."
Overconfidence was the downfall of gods, thankfully she did not scratch me or worse stab me but she did slap my hands away from her hair, it rid my handsome smile.
"Who are you calling stupid? And Alfred would never leave me as it is already written in the stars that I am his bride."
She's complicated like everyone of her kind her emotions are enjoying the see-saw too much, but I am happy that she returned to normal. I am not hoping but please make this the last time she blows up, I am being overworked without any kind of pay.
"Why are you smiling like an idiot? None of my business what's on your head but the lunch time are about to end did you eat already?"
Its me who want to know what's going on your brain.
"No. I was going to cafeteria but suddenly saw you with Lana, thankfully I followed."
I received a glare but I did nothing but smile foolishly.
"You should have not. I am hungry let's go to the cafeteria, your treat."
She turned around and I followed her, it's not like she almost murder her rival as she got back to the Ice Princess persona almost immidiately, sometimes I wonder if she have a mental disorder, I hope not. I sighed but still replied.
"Yes."
This cold person with heart of fickle fire is my sister, Azalea Vonns, the villainess of her story.
And I am Aster Vonns her brother, and her wingman.
