School starts back tomorrow so I won't do daily updates anymore, more like every two or three days :(
————————————————————

The sun warms my bones, brightening the insides of my eyelids as I let the white noise of excited voices wash over me. Kuina left about a half hour ago to go look for Chishiya, and, to my surprise, I'm enjoying myself. No more thoughts of the two innocent people I'd brutally murdered in cold blood. Nope. Not one.

My visa expires soon, so I'm going to be playing tonight. It better not be a difficult game, I don't think I can take it right now.

As my internal monologue continues, I don't notice the hush that descends over the pool until shade blocks the sun from hitting my body.

"Aikaaa," I open my eyes a crack in annoyance, then widen them as I realise who it is.

Niragi looms over me, head tilted to one side and assault rife in hand.

He carries that thing every goddamm place he goes, like he's in love with it.

I smirk at the thought, but he wipes it off my face by roughly grabbing my arm and pulling me up so we're nose to nose.

"Get off." I hiss.

People are starting to stare.

"Don't look at me like that." He says coldly, then smiles again, "I'm just trying to have some fun, like the rest of you."

Then, without a warning, he leans in and trails his tongue from my chin along my jawline to my ear. I recoil in disgust. Why would such an attractive man give such an ick?

I push him off me, "piss off," then start walking around the side of the pool back to the main building. I'm going back to my apartment.

A cold feeling runs through me as he grabs my arm again, tighter this time.

"You can't touch me like that, I'm a militant." I desperately say.

"Yeah, well so am I. You're coming with me."

Nonononononono.

"Niragi get off me."

He doesn't answer, just starts dragging me back in the direction of his apartment.

I panic.

I push him into the pool.

I'm about to run, when I feel a hand grab my arm. He's taken me down with him, that bitch. The last thing I hear is a collective gasp from the people around us before I'm engulfed in water.

The second my head goes under, I'm propelling myself back up. I take a deep gasp of air, thanking the higher beings that the water isn't cold, and shove my fringe out of my face. I manage to reach the side, and haul myself out, but just before I'm clear of the water, Niragi somehow manages to grab my ankle.

I stare back at him, dripping with water, and he scowls, eyes red and furious from the chlorine. We're in a checkmate position.

"You dropped your gun," I say, motioning with my eyes to the bottom of the pool.

He breaks our eye contact for a split second, and that's all I need. I use my other boot to kick him in the face, then scramble to my feet and sprint away, leaving a trail of wet footprints behind me.
