RED (Dianakko)

12

Akko woke up with a start, feeling cold and parched, but most of all she was hungry, just like the night she saw that dead animal, but this time all she could dream about was Diana, and just wanting to taste her.
So she got up quickly got up, and slushily walked to what she thought was the bathroom, but turns out it was just a really big closet, but she eventually found the bathroom, turning on the shower head and stepping into cold water, not bothering to take off her clothes, she just wanted to clear her head of all these hazardous thoughts that are plaguing her.
After what felt like hours, Akko finally left the bathroom, drenched, but now level headed, and feeling more at ease with herself, so with that she left the room, looking around in confusion, trying to figure out what she wanted to do.
"Good to see you up and about," Ixtec said, startling the poor girl, as she turned swiftly around to face the man.
"Um hey, so uh about this whole...training thing," Akko rushed out.
"Right, training, first let's get you something...decent to wear, and then we eat, I bet you're starving," he responded, giving her a once over, making her feel very self conscious of herself.
"Now come with the child, let's get you something to wear," he said, turning on his heels, as he walks off, not bothering to look back at her.
Akko hesitantly followed him, keeping a good amount of distance between them, trying to distract herself by looking around the halls, thinking how strangely empty such a big place like this is.
"Are there more of you...us here as well?" Akko questioned.
"Hm yes, but usually they're busy with training, study, or doing their jobs, but don't worry, you don't need worry about them, you're way more important than them, that's why I'll be personally training you," Ixtec explained, stopping in front a door, giving her a toothy grin, before walking into the room.
She followed him in, taken aback by the size of the closet, looking at all the different suits, vests, skirts, dresses, and so much more.
"Here, wear this, and please comb your hair, I'll get someone to fix that mop of yours, so hurry up now," He said, handing her an outfit, before walking out the room.

After getting dressed, and having someone play with her hair, she left the room, having someone bring her to the dining room, seeing three plates filled with delicious looking meat and really red looking drink.
"Take a seat child," Ixtec said, gesturing to one of the chairs, as he took his own seat.
She did as told, taking the closest chair, hesitantly looking around the room, expecting someone else to join them.
"She'll just us later," he said, noticing the questioning look on Akko's face.
"Who is she?" she asked, poking at the strange meat on her plate.
"Bo, she is the one who gave you life," he chuckled, as Akko froze in place, remembering the woman very vividly.
Ixtec ate silently, watching the girl hesitantly eat the food laid out for her, watching her eyes widen, and started to eat more of the food.
"You should have a sip, it's one of our finest drinks," he said slowly, dowing half of the red liquid in his cup.
She looked back and forth at the man and the cup, before finally deciding to grab the cup and took a sip, and the taste was the most amazing thing that she has ever tasted, it was like a mixture between sweet and salty, with the taste of something metallic, so she continued to drink it all.
"Wow, this is sooo good, what exactly is it!" Akko exclaimed, feeling her spirits lift up.
"Ah it's the blood of a unicorn, mixed with some human blood as well," Ixtec stated bluntly, not even trying to hide the fact that they're drinking blood.

Akko looked down in shock, feeling like she was suffocating, her whole body started to tremble, before leaping out of her seat, throwing up in the nearest corner of the room, trying to get the image of blood out of her mind, but her previous nightmare came back full force, as the picture of her tasting Diana's blood played in her mind, making her throw up again, before taking off, trying to find her room, not wanting to be near that man or the smell of the drink and vomit that was in the air.

She stayed in her room for the rest of the day, glad that Ixtec didn't bother her, as she curled up, crying and gasping, trying her best to get rid of these grotesque thoughts that seem to find their place in her mind, but what seemed like hours, she finally let herself rest, this time the nightmares didn't invade her mind.
