Chereads / A Broken Hearth Mistery / Chapter 41 - A bit of my darkness

Chapter 41 - A bit of my darkness

Unique Part

It was the second period of classes, I had returned to school after missing classes due to the storm, apparently I missed the news that Professor Matsuo had died in a car accident, at least that's what Baki told me, if they knew the truth that he was killed by a classmate of this class, I think everyone would be in a panic, but I guess it was better that way, I think everyone would be in a panic, but I guess it was better that way, there was also a rumour that a senior student, when she heard the news, burst into tears, so she was easily branded as having had a relationship with Matsuo.

These days, even though I made the effort, I'm still upset with Emi, I try to act as if nothing had happened, but it's been hard, even Aki, has improved a bit the relationship she has with my sister, although from time to time, when she remembers what happened she insults her, and this time I couldn't get angry with her, to all this Emi was summoned because Matsuo surprisingly left something for her? What kind of relationship they must have had, did Emi really tell me everything or did she hide some things from me, every time I thought about this I got more annoyed with her.

Hikaru pay attention, you've been blank for 7 minutes, and you're on test.

I couldn't answer her because now I would get caught, I decided to listen to her, and do the damn maths test.

For some reason Aki was upset about something.

-Question 4 and 8 are wrong Hikaru, in question 4 you made a mistake in the decimal point in the third exercise, and question 8 the answer is E, not A.

On question 4 I was right, I got everything right, I just got the comma wrong, on question 8 I really had no idea what to do because I didn't know the formula, but Aki was always on top of the academic results, so I listened to him.

Akiri kept tapping the table with her finger, although it was funny to see her go through the table, but she looked annoyed because she didn't want to cheat on my exam, but it seems she couldn't help but cheat.

-12 is wrong, the answer is 6 not 21, in question 18 you overlooked a minus sign, you got the whole exercise wrong, in 22 again you got the decimal point wrong and 30 is a trick question, the correct answer is syntax error or you can't solve it because the formula is wrong and you can't proceed to an answer, the rest is all right.

I could tell he didn't want to give me the answers, so I corrected what he said and handed in the test.

Before leaving I looked at Asuna who made a gesture that I was going to scan her head, almost making me laugh in the middle of the room. I left the room and went to my favourite place with Aki, the rooftop.

If there's one thing I love to do, it was to see how a few snows fell when there was some sunshine at the same time, luckily for me that was happening now.

-Geez Hikaru you should pay more attention to what you do, you did two exercises well and because you didn't care you put the wrong answer, other than that you were pretty good, you should study more at home.... Wait a minute, I never see you studying at home.

I couldn't help laughing.

-I just pay attention in class... and I almost don't even do that.

-But, but, but, but you're always above average in your grades, sometimes you're even in the top 50 and 20 of the academy, except in history, where you do horrible.

-What can I say, I'm good at these things, and I'm bad at studying if I'm not interested in something or maybe I don't have the discipline to do it? Wait... How do you know my grades are above average?

Akari was putting her fingers together in embarrassment.

-Heee, let's just say I was always checking where you were in the rankings.

-Wow, you really are a stalker, I didn't expect that, you know? Emi always warned me about crazy girls like you, I hope you won't disappoint me.

-Don't treat me like a pervert, I'm not like that, silly.

Aki snuggled up to me in sorrow. How I wanted to feel her, she probably wanted it more than me.

-Please don't go on, you two will give me diabetes.

Aki stepped back when she saw Fangs, even I can't help but remember the scene when she killed Matsuo, it made me tense up.

-Relax Aki, I asked Colmillos to come.

She nodded at me, but she was very attached to me. I'll have to thank this fool later, at least he made Aki look to me for protection.

-So Hikaru you brought them.

I took out the documents I had in my backpack.

-Here are all the copies of the documents we took out that night... I'm afraid to ask, but I guess I'm guessing babies from that bag, but what is it?

Colmillos quickly skimmed through the documents, he stopped on one particular one that interested me too, on the Two Faces experiment, the problem is that that file is almost all censored.

-This is blood in particular O negative, I must drink blood daily, otherwise my heart will stop pumping for some reason and I think you know what would happen if that happens.

Yes I can imagine, sorry about the disgusted face, but I have to get used to it, what do you know about Two-Face?

Fangs looked at my face, then looked at Aki who was pretty silent, I think it made us all sick to see what he did.

-Did you read all the files Hikaru?

Yes of course he did, otherwise I wouldn't be asking you about the Two-Face experiment, if you read Aki's file, both he and the agent who was in charge of the case have to do with what happened to him, and it's possible that one of them has the necklace I'm looking for.

Colmillos had begun to read Aki's file.

Shit of all possible things it had to be him, Hikaru it's possible that Mars and Two-Face are the same person, at least he has a partner.

-I don't understand you Colmillos, could you explain? - Aki finally spoke.

-I'm sorry, I shouldn't tell you that, it's something delicate that I shouldn't talk about, it's better that Aerosol tells you, Akari. I've already agreed with the boys, we want to meet with you early Friday morning, so you'll have to miss school.

- That's fine with me, but I'd rather you tell us about Two-Face now.

Colmillos looked conflicted.

-Hikaru, we all have our secrets, I don't ask you yours, don't ask me to reveal my friends'.

-But...

-Hikaru let it go, he's trying to be nice but he's failing to do so, but we'll meet Aerosol on Friday anyway, we'll get answers there. - Aki said patiently.

-If you're okay with it honey, then I'll wait, alright Colmillos tell me where to meet.

-Easy cowboy, on Thursday she will send you the location.

-She?

Colmillos just laughed.

-You take it easy, just wait, they are going to love my friends.

Now I was worried, if Colmillos was already a weirdo, what would Colmillos' friends be like.

Colmillos changed his countenance to a drastically more serious one.

-Now Akari if you turn into that again I have no choice but to murder you forever.

Honestly, I had just lost my temper.

I grabbed Colmillos by the hair on the back of his neck and put him in front of my face, I had probably let out what I hated in me, but this was my limit, I was sure I was looking at Colmillos like a madman.

-Try it blood sucking piece of shit, I've had enough of all this.

-Wow, wow, so you have more character than you already have, I like that look, I admit that I want to fight you again, but in your current state I would finish you very easily....

-Hikaru stop it.

I hit Fangs' nose, to my surprise it didn't hurt that much and from the bloodsucker's nose a trickle of blood started to fall.

Aki's voice had cracked a little. That hurt, I let Fangs go.

-Whatever, I've had enough of your bullshit vampire threats.

I expected Colmillos to hit me back, but he just took a long sigh, and wiped his nose.

-My team wants to take her down, especially after they saw what she's capable of through the school cameras, which, mind you, I had Sonar take out. If I'm not forced to take her down yet, it's because of me and thanks to Sonar, we think you can keep her at bay.

I felt uncomfortable as I was totally unaware that I had hit him.

-If that happens again, don't worry, I'll bring her back, but if you even try to touch a hair on her head, I'll see to it that you're eliminated forever.

-For everyone's sake there can't be another time, and Akari, start learning to use your powers, I know that every experiment has its differences, but you should at least be able to hit people, that would be very useful especially because your strength should be at least half of mine in that state, if you don't believe me take the example of the teacher I sent to sleep, and I'm sure he was a prototype not even what Akari is, or what my friend I had to kill was.

-No matter how much you tell me I'm trying so hard to do something, I've made progress with being able to grab things, but I haven't even been able to touch people, and you want me to be able to fight, I don't even know why I was able to hit Matsuo and that's frustrating.

-That's because they were both souls, or at least he was in that state, what surprises me is that he didn't need to separate from his body, but I'm not an expert on the subject either, that's all, I'm out of here.

In a second Colmillos had disappeared leaving a trail of wind behind him.

-Hikaru you must calm down, what are you going to do against Colmillos, understand you can't fight him, not again.

-Don't make a mistake Aki, yes I can, I already defeated him once, for you if necessary I would do it again, don't ask me not to defend you, because I can't not do it love.

-You're a fool, but I guess at least you're my fool, but don't be an idiot I don't want to see you get killed for me either, how do you think I'd feel if that happened?

That made me take off a little bit of my annoyance, but I was right again, I was only thinking about what I wanted and not about what she feels.

-I'll try to control myself more, I can promise that at least.

Aki smiled at me, and left the matter there.

-We're going, you have to talk to the counsellor so you can join your new class.

-You're right, let's go.
