The Role of Mages

Who was that?

I wake up in the morning to see that my room is pitch black.

" Wait... When did I close the curtains?" I ask myself.

" You didn't." A voice says.

I hear my door lock and a faintly see a figure walk towards me.

" Wait... Zero why are you in my room?... And why did your voice sound deeply than normal?" I ask.

" Hmph. You're just as curious as the last one was. Kyoto is it?" I grab my flashlight, turn it on and aim it at where Zero is.

"Is the person I'm looking at Zero? He looks like Zero but...." I think to myself.

He had pitch black hair and the whites in his eyes were black as well. With a silver split pupil.

" W-who-"

" I'm Zero. But...you can say I'm the side that no one would like to meet." He says with a dark chuckle.

He moves close to me, so that his face is about a few inches away from mine.

I begin to tremble.

" You're just like the last boy that was here. So skinny...fearful...weak." He grabs the flashlight out of my hands.

"... M-mind ex-explaining why you're in this room?" I ask, stuttering.

" Lately I've noticed that Zero has been keeping a close eye on you."

" What?"

" I'm not sure why but, I'm guessing that he doesn't want to repeat the same mistake again."

" What mistake?" I ask, really confused.

What is with this guy?!? First you break into my room without permission. Then shut off the lights and now talking about something I have no knowledge of.

" How did you even get in here?" I ask.

" Little Kyoto. Haven't you learned to always lock the door? You haven't done that since the day you've got here."

" Wait... How would you.."

" I did say that he's been keeping a close eye on you."

Why is he telling me this?

" Can you... go away?" I ask.

" Hmph. Very well." He puts the flashlight down and begins to walk out of the door.

" We'll see each other again." He says and walks out of my room.

I stand up from my bed and open the curtains.

" Good morning." I say to everyone at the table.

They say nothing and look pissed off about something. Except Celiest,  Mercurius and Ryland who were sipping their coffee. Or tea...

" What's wrong?" I ask.

" Your face." Samus spits.

" Your existence." Aster also spits.

" Oh I'm just really tired." Achned rubs his eyes and yawns.

Zero doesn't respond.

" Hey dipshit, the bag of bones asked you something." Aster glares at Zero.

" I'll spill coffee on you. That would be funny." Zero says with a sadistic smirk.

" Uh.."

Zero glances at me. He yawns.

" This is why I don't sleep a lot.... I feel like I want to murder people or laugh at them while they're in pain.." Zero lays his head on the table.
