The Lost Shadow (Sequel to: The Lilac Shadow, a Karma x OC fanfic)

Chapter 5: Toy

Back again!

=======================================

Aira's POV

Walking to school, I notice the gazes that weren't here during the first day. Maybe because Karma pulled me aside on the first day amd went back later on just to leave?

But now his sadness and Asano's confusion makes sense. It is because I forgot about them.

"Aira-san."

Hearing someone call out to me, I look behind me, smiling at Asano. "Ohayōgozaimasu, Asano-kun."

"Ohayō, Aira-san. Why weren't you here yesterday? You don't have to answer it, I am just a bit curious." Asano added, smiling back.

Suddenly, pain erput in my head, and my vision gone black, making me fall.

"But...you feel like the one for me."

When my vision comes back, I blink slowly, adjusting to the light before looking beside me into a pair of purple eyes. Looking around, I find the students staring at us with envy and hatred stares directed at me and Asano.

But now, it doesn't really matter as I remember his feelings for me.

"Gomen, Gakushu-kun." I whisper, and he seems to know what I mean, because he smiles. "It doesn't matter. We can still make new ones."

Stifling a sob back, I quickly stand up, taking my bag. How did I get two boys who love me so much they are willing to forgive just about anything?

But in the end, one of us gets hurt.

"I am sure you know about last year." I state, not asking. He nods.

"And so, I will tell you this: I lost most of my meories from last year, some of them changed to the opposite thing that I originally did. Yesterday I didn't come was because I was in the hospital after recovering some memories. Everytime I have a headache, like just now, is because I am remembering something." I explain quietly, just loud enough for Gakushu to hear and not the others.

He stays quiet for a while, and we walk in the silence until we reach the school. Going to my shoe locker, I open it to find three letters in it.

Taking them, I open one to only find it a love letter. Opening the other two, ome is also love letter, but the other one is something like a threatening letter, telling me to stay away from Karma and Gakushu, or else something bad will happen.

Smirking slightly, I tear them up, throwing the remains into the rubbish bin. The love letters are useless, and what could possibly happen? I have died once anyway.

"You know, you can give the letter to the teachers. They might be able to find out who did this." Gakushu said, appearing behind me.

"Don't need them. I can find out who by myself. For now, you should keep distance from me. I don't want you to get caught in the pranks they will be pulling on me." I explain, the tiniest bloodlust leaking out.

"And also because I will be repaying them with my own pranks, just not as childish as theirs."

Upon hearing my words, Gakushu sighs, nodding. "Just don't kill them. I will be going first then."

I watch him walk away before walking over to Karma's shoe locker, waiting for him. After a few minutes, he comes in and sees me.

"Aira-chan, were you waiting for me?" He asks, smirking. Peeking behind him, I see a brunette walking over before a smile appears on my face.

She is just in time, and even better, there's no one around.

Leaning in towards Karma, I put my hands on his shoulders, whispering, "I can help you get the stalker away with about 5 days starting next week, but you have to try to stay as far away as possible. Can you do that?"
