"Riinngg" Phew,I got to school just on time.I quickly sat down and turned to look at Otoki,just to realise that he was not there.Huh?I thought he was always earlier than me?Oh well,then I 'win' him today!But...That means he is late for school today!Did something happen to him?I wondered when Yagari-sensei stepped into the room and started the lesson.After the lesson ended,Kaneki(he is the monitor in case you forgot who he is cuz he is only mentioned in the second chapter)came up to me and stretched out his hand,"Mira-chann,would you like to come with me during recess?I want to bring you to somewhere." "Uhh...Umm...I—" Before I could finish my sentence,he took my hand and pulled me along. "Hey!Where are we going?" He grinned at me and said,"To a classroom..."

Just then,Otoki rushed into the classroom with an enormous bag.When he saw Kaneki and I,I could see that his eyes glowered with anger. "Where do you think you are bringing her to?" Otoki asked calmly.Kaneki was surprised that Otoki was there but acted cool,"Hmph,why do you need to know?" "Oh?That's because you have my servant over there,isn't that right,Mira?" Otoki grinned a grin that sent shudders down my spine.

"Hey!How many times do I have to tell you!I.Am.Not.Your.Servant!" I shouted. "See?She say she's not," Kaneki said. "She is and I won't let you take her to that classroom." Otoki argued.So he overheard what Kaneki said?I guessed. "What's wrong,can't afford to let your goddess go somewhere out of your reach for a while?" Kaneki sniggered,"It's not like I want to bully your precious little doll." "Hey!Stop calling me with all those names!I am not a doll,nor his goddess!I am just me,Mira!Don't call me other things!" I was mad.Why did they have always call me weird stuff? "I know what you are planning to do.Don't you dare bully her." Otoki furrowed his eyebrows and took my other hand.

"Wait...Bully me?..." I turned to Kaneki.He seemed to panick a little. "Aah...You planned this?It can't be right?..." I asked Kaneki. "Tch," He ran off pulling me with him.My other hand slipped off Otoki's.Otoki ran after Kaneki and caught up with him.He pulled me away from Kaneki,"I will not let you do that to her." I stood at a side and watched them argue and fight.Their uniform soon became dirty,crumpled and messy.Ehh,can I sneak off to the canteen?...I started to tip-toe off when Otoki commanded in an impatient tone,"Come back,servant.His gang maybe downstairs waiting for you." I sighed and stood at the same corner,"I am Not your servant!" But he was too busy fighting Kaneki and dodging his punches to hear me.Just then,Kaneki dealt a blow on Otoki's stomach.He coughed loudly and staggered back a little.Ouch,that must have hurt! "Hah,to think that you can easily get defeated with a small blow.I am just warming up,you know.If this is how you fight,I can take away the little girl so easily that it would be a breeze for me." Kaneki boasted. "I am NOT A LITTLE GIRL!!!" I shouted.Did I look so tiny to them?!Otoki stopped moving for a while.Then,he chuckled darkly and grinned.

Then,he chuckled darkly and grinned

"Uhm,Otoki-kun?Are you alright?..." I asked.Suddenly,he went into a blur and tore a part of Kaneki's flesh mercilessly on the arm with his vampire fangs. "Gahh!That hurts!" Kaneki cried,holding on to his injured arm. "Kaneki-kun!Otoki!Why did you do that to him!He is now injured!" I ran over to Kaneki but was stopped by Otoki. "Where do you think you are going?Leave him be,I don't care." He cornered me while Kaneki ran to get medical attention by himself. "You should not do that to him!It's wrong!Now let me go!I need to help him!You shall apologise to him later!" I scolded.He looked at me with cold eyes and muttered,"I will not let anyone take you away from me,my feed." And bite! He bit me and slurped up my blood. "Ugh...Stop it,you vampire..." I moaned in pain.After a while,he was satisfied and licked my wound and his lips,"That bite is to repay me for protecting you." "You did not protect me at all!How can I believe you that Kaneki wanted to bully me in another classroom?I am sure that he will not do such things," I said,still recovering from the bite. "You saw him panic just now,didn't you." "Yes he did but that doesn't mean..." He sighed and explained,"Yesterday,I heard him talk to his friends that he wanted to bring you to tease and make fun of you." I looked at him with disbelief.Why would Kaneki do that? "You are lying.I am sure he will not do that.Why would he even do that in the first place?" "Hmph,suit yourself." After that,I turned and ran to find Kaneki.

And I found him in the general office.A teacher was attending to his wound. "Kaneki-kun,are you alright?" I asked.He nodded.Okay,how did he recover from the pain that quickly?...After he was bandaged,he pulled me out of the office. "Where are you bringing me?" He grinned and replied,"To the classroom." In the classroom,I saw a few boys and they looked familiar.They are from...Our class?Why are they here?Just then,I remembered what Otoki had said,"Also to tease and make fun of you." Everything Otoki told me just then kept on playing in my head.No...No no no.I am sure they have another motive.They...They want to make friends with me,that's all.I tried to think positively. Kaneki announced,"I got her here." Later,he told them what had happened to him just then and all of them started talking about Otoki. "That idiot Otoki has some really sharp teeth." "And he is getting more arrogant and evil day by day!" "If he has sharp teeth...Ahh!He might be a vampire!" One of them exclaimed.Oh no!They know the truth!Just then,everyone looked at me. "Is that why you have those bite marks on your neck?" Kaneki asked. "Err..." Oh no,what should I say? "What is with you and that guy?" "Is he really a vampire?" Everyone moved closer to me.What should I say??? "So,what is with your boyfriend?" Kaneki cracked his knuckles,"If you don't spit the truth out,we will take it that he is a vampire.And we shall beat you up to repay for what that idiotic vampire have done to me,you useless girl." "No,don't do that to me!" However,he gave them a signal and they rushed up to me,stretching out their fists. "No,don't!!!" I screamed.Just then,there was a blur and in the blink of my eye,I found myself at the entrance of the classroom. "Aah?" I turned,only to see Otoki.He...He was carrying me!I was embarrassed. "W...Why are you here?Why are you carrying me?Put me down!" I said.

Why are you here?Why are you carrying me?Put me down!" I said

"I want you all to get away from her.Don't involve her in your business.If it's a fight,then you should get me instead."  Otoki put me down.  "Oh?We are glad to fight you,vampire." Kaneki glared at him. "Hey!No more fighting!Or I will call in the teacher!" I shouted angrily,"Violence will not solve anything!" "Tch." Kaneki bit his lips before going out of the room.The others followed him.Guess Kaneki was the leader then.Otoki brought me to the canteen and said,"Didn't I tell you not to go?You fool.You almost got yourself in deep trouble." "Well,if you had not injure him,I will not even be in that classroom!" I exclaimed and paused,"...Sorry...It is actually my fault...I should have listened to you at first.I do not know that class monitor Kaneki-kun can be so cruel......And thank you for saving me." He smiled and pat me on the head,"Good girl." "Hey!I am not a girl!I mean,don't treat me like some kid by patting me on the head and calling me 'good girl'!" "But you are a kiddie girl." "So not!" "Yes you are.Only kiddie girls need to be rescued." "No way!"

Just then,I heard some whispers around us.I heard them mentioned "Otoki" here and there.And everyone was at least a meter away from Otoki and I.What...What was that for?
