Chapter 8

Merlin's suspension has finally come to an end and is now back at school. Merlin just slept for most of it anyways. She got some side eyes from different students as her bully stopped coming near her. But why should she be worried about what they think? As long as her brother is with her, they'll make it one way or the other. After the entire thing moved on, Merlin entered the school baseball team. She has used this as a reason to eat a lot more.
"You sly fox." Meguro would normally tease her about her trickery.
Using the baseball as a reason to fatten up and furthered her knowledge in Judo. This happened for 3 years. 3 years of lying and manipulation. And it all leaded up to this night.

The group of girls parted ways, bringing Merlin delight. Only two of the girls she wanted the most. But killing all of them will sure be a treat. And she'll get what she wants, and no one will stop her from doing so. But that bitch Lynae (don't judge, I finally gave the bully from last chapter a name) will for sure be her first target. While Lynae was walking home, Merlin was following far behind her. This happened for a while before Lynae turned around and looked towards Merlin's direction with an annoyed look.
"You've been following me for a while. What do you want, you fucking weirdo?" She questioned with annoyance.
That made Merlin's eyes shimmer with joy. She has finally looked her way. Merlin's mind became fogy, and she couldn't think straight. This was when Merlin pounced on Lynae as her smile grew wider. This immediately frightened the girl as she tried to get Merlin off of her. I mean, who wouldn't?
"L-look... I'm sorry abou-"
"Shut the hell up!" Merlin roared as she began to strangle her.
"I don't give a damn about your apology."
Tears of blood ran down her cheek and onto Lynae's one. Lynae's vision started to blur as she clawed into Merlin's arms. The feral girl then started to tighten her hands around Lynae's neck as joy and the suspense started to build up in her chest. Lynae tried her best to fight off Merlin, but it all went to waste. Then something snapped. A loud gargling noise erupted from Lynae. Merlin then realized that she broke her windpipe. Lynae was choking on her own blood. Blood and saliva started to trickle from her mouth as her eyes started to water. But yet she wasn't satisfied with what she's seeing. Merlin wanted to see more.
"I wasn't planning on using this. But you're not pleasing me with what you're giving." Merlin hummed before pulling out a large kitchen knife. 
"I hate to leave a mess, but you leave me no choice."
And with that, Merlin started to stab Lynea in her face. The slicing nad tearing of her skin and tissues brought Merlin much joy. If only Meguro was there to see the excellent job she's doing right now. But either way, her brother will be just pleased hearing about it. One of her eyeballs came out with the knife, making Merlin pause for a moment.
"How did you come out? Can I keep you? I'm going to keep this." Merlin smiled as she slid the organ off of the blade. 
She then placed it inside a ziplock bag and placed it on the side. 
"I'm liking this. How about we take more parts of you?"
And before she could do anything else, someone shrieked in horror. Merlin's head whipped around to see one of Lynea's friends standing there with something in her hand. Lynea must have let something behind and one of her friends came back to return her property. A psychotic smile crept onto Merlin's face before pounced on the girl.
"I hope you put up much of a fight compared to Lynea." Merlin grinned.
"Just don't die one me to quick. I want to have some fun with you."

Couple days ago

Hiroki's students were doing their normal routine of training while Merlin sat in the corner of the dojo doing her homework. Every now and then she'd stop what she was doing and watch the students practice. Their calls roared through the building before it was over tuned by her father's voice.
"Enough!" Horoki ordered.
His pupils did what they were told and looked at him. Horoki was quite proud of how far his son has gotten in Judo. And his daughter was an ace student, despite the embarrassment she has brought onto him. It was the least she could do to redeem herself. He has the best children someone could ask for.
"Good. You have done well to last this long against Ishida." He commented.
"Keep up the good work, Masaki."
"Yes, father!"
Meguro went to put his glasses back on as the other students complimented him.
"You know, sensei. That was honestly a bit of a challenge." Ishida commented.
"Oh, please, don't flatter me."
"It's true, though. I've never seen a middle schooler as strong as you."
"You're a future gold medalist for sure." They all continued.
"Hey! Cut it out, Munemitsu and Suzumoto!"
"If we lose in the world championships next month, we're gonna count on you to avenge us."
"Guys, stop kidding around!"
Merlin smiled at their interaction.
This year, a number of members of his dojo are representing Japan in the world championships. And among them, Ishida is talented enough to become the champion. Then there's his son, Masaki. Masaki started judo at the age of 7. It's been 6 years... He's only thirteen, but he's talented enough to fight on even footing with adults. Now the three representatives and Horoki are the only ones left in this dojo who can spare with him.
"Now, Masaki, about the timing of your hip sweep..."
And Ishida, who's closest to him in age, is particularly fond of him.
"Your lift needs to be a tiny bit later."
"Oh, I get it."
Masaki thinks of Ishida as his older brother.
