The Legendary Dark Demon

Chapter 10

I woke up at the wrong side of bed this morning. I had trouble sleeping, and the result of it are the dark circles around my eyes and enormous eyebags, palagi nalang akong humihikab.

I am surely not in a mood to go to class today, so why did I bother going to school, you ask?

It's because of some shitty research proposal papers that dues today. Unless I pass it this morning I will surely fail, and failing and Haruka don't mix. Mataas ang pride ko sa sarili at hindi ako basta basta nagpapatalo.

I barely had 3 hours of sleep dahil sa tinapos ko pa ang misyon ko. I came back to the house already feeling tired pero nalaman kong may hindi pa pala ako nagagawang project. As much as I want to kill my professor and strangle him with my bare hands, hindi pwede.

About my mission last night, it went successfully and that is the fucking reason kung bakit kulang ako sa tulog.

Mautak din ang lalaking iyon at talagang walang planong sumuko that's why he ended up headless up and down if you know what I mean.

I was walking like a zombie around the school campus, konti pa lang ang tao dito, sinadya ko talagang maaga pumasok para makabalik ako sa aking kama at matulog ulit.

After I went to my professor's office and slammed the project in his face, not really literally, bumalik na ako parking lot but I realize I'm to damn sleepy to drive so I settled on the mini forest.

After a few minutes walking or was that sleep walking haha, umakyat ako sa isa sa mga puno at doon matulog, I was gonna close my eyes when I felt the air changed, I sensed a thing towards me and I quickly dodged it, ng tiningnan ko ano ang bagay na iyon ay napangisi ako.

What a surprise! Ano naman kayang ginagawa nang babaeng iyon dito?

May nararamdaman akong papuntang bagay nanaman na papunta sa akin kaya sinalo ko ito gamit ang kamay ko pero may umagos na dugo sa daliri ko.

Tss.

Inilabas ko ang dagger ko panangga sa mga matutulis na barahang papunta sa akin.

Yes, you heard it right, cards. Not just ordinary cards, they are specially made just for her but if you don't look at it intently ay aakalain mong normal lang na baraha ito pero mas mabigat talaga ito at nakakasugat.

"Quit hiding Rave, show me your freaking face" I said but all I could hear was her chuckle.

Ahhh this girl, she really likes to tease everyone, a very playful girl indeed.

May paparating pa sa akin sunod sunod sa magkaibang direksiyon kaya iniwasan ko nalang to. I really am quite curious how she pulled it off.

To my suprise may isa pa pala papunta sa mukha ko and I quickly tilted my head to prevent it from scratching my precious face but I was too late it wounded my cheek.

Oh damn kakahilom lang nung sugat dito eh, buti hindi nagkapeklat, mababaw lang naman.

"Alright come out know I'm tired of you and your card tricks" I said and threw the dagger east, sa isang puno kung saan naramdaman ko siyang nagtatago.

"Tss, fine fine, you win" sabi niya at lumabas na sa pinagtataguan habang nakataas ang kamay na parang inaaresto ng pulis.

Wala pang isang segundo ay sumungod siya sa akin at niyakap ako.

"Haru-chan I missed you" she said in a sharp tone.

"Yeah, get your filthy hand off me" sabi ko at ngumuso lang siya

"Hindi ka talaga nagbago Haru-chan still as distant as ever"

I just rolled my eyes.

"What are you doing here?" sabi niya

"You? what are you doing here?" I threw the question back at her and she pouted.

"Hey, I was the one who asked first!" sabi niya habang nakanguso parin, pretty childish.

"Mission." I said shortly

"Really? Me too!" sabi niya at itinaas ang isa niyang kamay na parang grade one.

Tinignan ko lang siya, telepathically urging her to continue.

"Well, related to the heir of Yukumi Mafia"

Miyembro siya ng isang mafia, a mafia reaper to be exact, she's Raven Ashville, one of the few alive people who knows my identity as the dark demon of Otokawa Mafia, it was an accident though, since then we became friends, palagi kaming nagkikita tuwing may mga illegal transactions kung saan kasama ang Yukumi at Otokawa Mafia. Both mafia's are not rivals, unlike the other's.

"What about him" sabi ko, though I never really knew the Yukumi heir.

She just rolled her eyes.

"Worst, boring job ever, I only have to look out for the spoiled brat 24/7 and protect him from any threats of his life. Damn,  sinong mag aakalang mamanmanan ko ang taong yun buong araw,  that idiot only knows how to flirt and make out with women" sabi niya in a frustrated tone.

"So he's studying here in Imperial Academy?" sabi ko

"Duh, its a school full of mafia heirs and reapers after all" she said.

"Since when did that started? The guarding"sabi ko

"Last week lang, may natanggap kasing death threat ang Yukui mafia kaya I'm here looking out for his ass everyday" she said and groaned.

"And you plan on stalking him with a binocular whole day in a tree?" sabi ko

"Yeah, I was told to protect him discreetly, ayaw kasi niya may aaligid sa kaniya psh..." sabi niya

"Does he know who you are?" -ako

" Nope he doesn't go to the mafia base often." tumango nalang ako.

Each mafia clan have a base where members of the clan gather. Doon nagaganap ang importanteng mga pagpupukong ng buong organisasyon at minsan tambayan ng mga walang magawa.

"Well if that's the case then you can always go undercover as a member of the school." sabi ko at natigilan siya.

"Oo nga, then I can watch him without being bored , why haven't I thought of that earlier"

"Because you're stupid" I said in a boring tone.

"Haru-chan naman eh" and she made another duck face again.

"Hmmm, ano kaya ang ididisguise ko? how about a nerd?...naaah...hmm how about..."

"Yeah go ahead, matutulog muna ako"

Sabi ko habang sumandal sa isang puno.

"Ano? Haru-chan naman eh, tulungan mo ako?" sabi niya habang inaalog ako

"Kaya mo na yan, do whatever your stupid mind thinks of, its not my life, its yours" sabi ko sounding too sleepy

" Eeeeehhh! Haru-chan!!" sabi niya habang muli akong inalog-alog

"Don't disturb me or else" sabi ko habang itinutok sa kanya ang dagger.

Nakapikit ako pero alam kong nakanguso siya.

"Tsh KJ" dabog niya and that was the last thing I heard before I fell asleep.
