Sakae's POV
"Please sit on those vacant chairs." Our teacher said as she points the chairs near me, one to my right and left and three at my back. As a reply, they sat down at the vacant chairs. This is getting too uncomfortable. "And so, let's start . Say present when you hear your name. " the teacher said and as always, my name wasn't call again. Glad I'm used to it, When you’ve become this school outcast, no one will see you, that’s why I chose this school . But I am not a fully developed outcast yet. You could say I’m in the bullied stage. At first I thought it was the same thing, being an outcast is also being bullied. But here is different, being bullied resorts to scribbles on your chairs, your shoes disappearing ,verbal and physically abuse. While an outcast is where you become invincible almost to the whole school. They even made rules not to talk with the outcast students
"Teacher!" called the girl at my right side, she has silver hair and silver eyes. "You forgot to call Nakamura-san." She said, Tsk, If only we were close, I would tell her to stay out of it. If they are really smart students, they should have investigated about the events happening In this classroom and what kind of students and teachers are here. They are capable of doing that, If not, then how did they found out about where I go to school? "Oh? Nakamura-san, ahaha- right, Nakamura Sakae!" The teacher uttered. I thought that teacher was the type to stick to the rules, no roll call for the outcast. I guess A-UH has a huge influence, People sure have double personalities, especially if they’re in front of a different person, "Present." I replied to the call silently,"Then let's start the lesson." She smiled weakly .
"Hi, Sakae" greeted the girl to my left. She has brown hair and brown eyes "I'm Watanabe Atsuko and that one-“ she said and she pointed at the girl at my right “ I’m Takahashi Aya remember us from the bus? and the rooftop?" the girl said, she has silver eyes and silver hair . "And the boy at your back is Matsumoto Arata, at his right side is Yoshida Keiji and on the left is Yoshida Kei. " she continued and the brothers gave me a wink while the one at my back was expressionless. So he’s Matsumoto Arata, the one who asked me who I am back then at the bus. “Nice meeting you.” Atsuko said with a big smile.
And silence was all I replied,why are they here? I know I have become suspicious for them but why do they need to transfer here?. I just focused on the lesson and didn’t mind then that's what I decided to do but when suddenly I sensed an Unhuman
There's currently an Unhuman roaming around, I need to-, no, act like you don't know Sakae, I’ve had enough. "Arata-kun." Watanabe-san whispered behind my back as she showed him some device. "I know." Matsumoto-kun said and I heard a beep on the device Atsuko was holding. “It’s coming” Aya said turning the deivce off. I saw Aya closed her eyes and talk about something with Keiji about the probability of the Unhuman barging in in this room. "Let it be." Matsumoto-kun continued, what did he just say? Let it be? "What?" Watanabe-san whispered, what the heck?, if that's going to be his descision, then I'm leaving here, I don’t wanna be in this mess.
I stood up and went out of the room, I'm just glad that the teacher doesn't care even if I went out while the lesson is still ongoing. This is crazy. If I'm the reason why they transferred here, I ain't letting myself get involved any further. I ran to the rooftop. You could say, the rooftop is like my second home. the Unhuman is near. "No!" The other student shouted, There are currently 10 Unhumans inside the school building, how did it became that many? "Unhumans!!!" The student shouted with fear.
The school building is filled with terrified screams, as I scroll down my phone, I can feel One unhuman dead, and nine more to go. I just hope it goes well. "Why are you not helping?" Someone said, When I glanced at the right side where the voice came from , I saw a boy, an elementary boy to be exact. "Who are you?" I asked him standing up and putting my phone down . "Sakae, why can't you just leave the past behind?" He said, what is this boy talking about?, "what are you talking about?" I muttered. " I'm Alice's husband." He said, Alice? Who is Alice? "does it ring any bell?" He continued. “ Who's Alice?” I asked, somehow I feel like I heard it before..." So you must have forgotten about it." He said, as he plays with his tie.
"I can't understand you." I said. "But you still do remember, the incident that happened"he said and walked towards me,"What in-incident?" I asked him, why am I feeling strange? "The Incident, you know, the reason why the UnHumans haven't stopped yet." He said which made me drop my phone. Why the Unhumans haven’t stop yet, how did he knew about that? "that has got nothing to do with you." I said in anger and started to walk get down the roof. Why is this happening to me, why do strange things keeps happening? When I was about to reach the door , he suddenly appeared before me. "So much for being the chosen one." He whispered with a smirk on top.
"WHO ARE YOU?" I shouted as I pushed him back, "Like I said, I'm Alice's husband." He said, "How? how did you know about that phrase?" I said, "Now, now, I wouldn't let the fun be spoiled. Find the answer by yourself Sakae. You're running away from the reality." He said before he vanished completely in front of me. Who is he? How did he knoiw that phrase? Alice? Who’s Alice?
Suddenly, I sensed four presence appeared infront of the school gate. When I ran to take a look at it, I saw two girls and two boys, wearing the A-UH school uniform. Perhaps, Atsuko and the others comrade?, “ I better get out of this mess” I said to myself. I ran down the roof to camouflauge with the other students, I prefer to escape this way, I want to get home quickly.
Arata's Point Of View
I guess our plan didn't work, the result was worse. She surely sensed the Unhuman yet she didn't help and it appears the Unhuman that came here was a carrier for 9 more Unhumans. "Atsuko , call the Academy for some back-up, at this rate we won't be able to handle things without someone getting hurt" I ordered and she called. We transferred in this school so we could know more about the girl and also, the principal approved us to do so, he said just to make sure we do our job and that is to kill UnHumans and he will let us do what we want.
We are one of the platoon that is highly respected by the other platoons, because we are special , we don't need the A-UH substance to kill the UnHumans, we have our own way to kill the monster, anywhere and anytime we want.
"Arata, Akihiko and the others are here. " Keiji reported, as he continue to shoot down the Unhuman, it takes a lot of bullets to kill the Unhuman, around 5 to completely make them disappear. "Great, tell them to help us." I ordered. Even though we are special, things may go out of hand sometimes and the worse is, our familiar said that if we use our powers, there may be some side effects, until now, it' s unknown what are those counter effects but what we hope is that the counter-effects can't be that serious or life threathening. When we used our powers for the past couple of fights, we haven’t felt any strange things happening to us so we make sure to only use it during Emergency.
Akihiko's POV
When we arrived at the Academy, I felt a strange presence. Who was that? Maybe it’s the Unhumans? But something was quite off, Unhumans never sent me goosebumps before."Akihiko!" someone called, when I looked straight, I saw keiji running towards me, "Help us. There are currently nine UnHumans roaming around the school." He said between his huff, "Nine?" I asked again to make sure. This never happened before, that's too many. "Yes. Nine." He replied, this is serious, "Liza and Grace, evacuate the students while we lure the UnHumans at the roof." I ordered and they started moving, I need to lure them somehow and the rooftop is the good place.
Sakae's Point Of View
"Everybody!, evacuate!, get out of the school building and go home!" two girls shouted, leading the students out of the building, I was about to get out of the building when realization came that I left my phone at the rooftop. I'm one of an unlucky girl. I need to get it, and so I ran as fast as I can to the rooftop.Why do I neded to get that cellphone so bad? because that cellphone is my researching tool.
Third Person’s Point Of View
As Sakae hurried at the rooftop, Akihiko and the others hurried to the rooftop as well, luring the Unhumans with them, "Arata!, at the rooftop! " Akihiko shouted, and dash towards the rooftop, "Yes!" Arata replied and so Arata and the others run at the rooftop with the nine UnHumans. Suddenly the UnHumans vanished and the only reason they would vanished like that is not because they were killed, It's because they sensed someone near them more tastier as their food. If they were killed they would have been turned into a valuable gems.
"Darn it!, hey Liza!, is someone still inside the school except us?" Akihiko asked running as fast as he could, "I'm sorry. I don't know". Liza replied, " they teleported at the rooftop!" Atsuko shouted , "Then that makes things easier” Akihiko whispered, when they reached the rooftop they saw a student circled by the UnHumans who were drooling, ready to eat their prey.
"Sakae?" Arata shouted and his teammate ready their guns filled with A-UH substance and pointed it at the UnHumans.
Akihiko's Point of View
When we reached the rooftop, we saw a highschool girl circled by the UnHumans. Her presence, it’s similar to the one I sensed earlier."Sakae?" Arata shouted, he knows her? As I observe the girl, she's not even moving an inch or should I say even though UnHumans are circling her, she's expressionless, Maybe because she’s scared
"Sakae, don't worry we'll kill the UnHumans, stay there." Aya said and we glanced at each other, signaling to start attacking the UnHumans. I went to the girl to ask her if she's okay as I shoot the Unhumans she spoke, "You all ruined it." She murmured and looked at me. "What?" I asked in confusion. "I could have died now but you ruined it. " she said. What is this girl saying? She wanted to die? she's crazy. "Now,I need to wait another chance, a chance that I could finally die. " she said to me. "No,why do you wanna die?" I asked her "Isn’t there only one reason why some of the humans want to die?." She replied, somehow that made me speechless, then she run away and jumped off the building. "Miss!" I shouted . "Not again??!?" Arata exclaimed. When I ran to look at her, she was running away from the Academy. How could she survive the height?who is she?..
After we finished the UnHumans, I was still thinking about the mysterious girl earlier. "that was the girl that we were talking about that is mysterious" Arata said. "She is?" I asked, "Yes, she did that too last time we met, she jumped off the building but survived and even sensed where the UnHumans will attack or appear, Nakamura Sakae." He said. Nakamura Sakae? Sakae..
Sakae's Point of View
My escape is a success. Today, many Unexpected events happened, seriously Unexpected and also Irritating, I hope they would just stop bothering me. I hate this life. I could have died earlier but It was interrupted and anyway, who is Alice? this day is so tiring. The boy who asked me why I want to die,
Isn’t it to escape reality?
