Chapter 2
"Mon dieu!" Klyst exclaimed as he walked back and forth inside the Headmistress' quarters, wearing his usual crimson collared victorian jacket which matched his orange-toned hair and blue eyes.
"This has been what? The third incident?" He was currently in-charge of the academy, as a member of the faculty, sort-off. With the recent happenings, the academy needed someone to take over while the Headmistress was away. He knew he wasn't that person --- but Senri wasn't also around.
"The fourth, actually." Anri corrected. She was sitting across him, her green hair brushed by the gentle wind that came through the open window. "I guess 'he' won't stop for anything..." She added before looking at the empty teacup she was holding.
"How could you even drink 'tea' at a time like this?" The resident vampire rattled then continued complaining in his native tongue; french.
Where are you two, Lady and Senri? Anri mused.

"Zid you hear whaz happened zis morning?" Asked a thick accented girl. She had hazel eyes and had short white hair, cut just above her shoulders and held in place by a black headband with a ribbon on the left. She was looking at the pale black-haired girl in front of her.
The girl was sitting in front of a desk while she was in front of it, leaning.
"I heard an outzider waz involved..." She added cheerfully. "Aren't you intrezted Claire?"
"Not -- my business, Victoria." Claire responed indifferently. She was again reading one of her favorite books. Her scarlet eyes slowly scanning the pages while her back resting on the wooden chair. "If I were you, I would mind my own matters.."
"Iz that zo? Not even one bit? I heard" Victoria smiled then sat on the vacant chair next to her. "Zon't you get bored with zat? Juzt reazing all zay long. How about taking a ztroll outzide?"
Claire slightly twitched. "Can you shut your mouth even for one second?" She then closed her book while her eyes remained on its place.
"Zon't you have friendz? or even zomebody to hang out? Maybe zat zemon, Yozai, waz it?" Victoria ignored her and continued as she looked at her newly polished nails. "You've been 'here' all morning.... or a boyfriend az ----" Her next words were then cut.
Claire dashed towards her and pinned her to the wall with such force that the impact made a dent to the concrete wall. Her pale hand was on Victoria's neck while her eyes glared at her.
"Don't you have any other thing to do besides pissing me off, Victoria Nevermore?" Claire threatened. She was shorter than Victoria. Her height was comparable to that of a freshman high school student but everyone in the academy knew never to measure one's age based on height. Claire was a vampire, born of noble blood and already a thousand years old. She was known to have a short temper but then manages to regain her composure back.
Victoria smiled. "What'z ze matter? Zid I zay zomethin' wro---" She then tried to taunt her more but Claire tightened her grip.
