Chapter 3

Antagonist's Third Person P.O.V.

Antagonist was smirking like a psycho as Hajime sealed the blood oath. Now, he could protect this boy. Honestly though, why would He have sent him here again? He must be bored. Antagonist let out a sigh.
His senses suddenly sharpened, and his reflexes were activated. The collar and chain around his neck grew warm, turning red with a brown hue, indicating that the oath was sealed.

"You know, even if my blood does taste that good, don't drink it all." He laughed.

"O-oh. Uhm...Sorry." Hajime mumbled.

The footsteps were approaching far more quickly than Antagonist had expected.

He quickly drew a knife out of one of his pockets and locked the living room doors.
The doorknob rattled, indicating that the person, or people, were trying to get in.

Hajime opened his mouth, ready to speak. But before he could do so, Antagonist covered his mouth with one hand and placed his index finger to his own lips.
"Shhh..." he silently warned.

He gestured to the book, nudging Hajime to go retrieve it.

They grew impatient. The rattling of the doorknob stopped.

Everything was silent.

A crash broke the silence as the door came falling down.

Antagonist titled his head and chuckled. The albino chucked the knife at the nearest window, shattering the delicate material. He ran towards Hajime, who was now holding the book tightly and picked him up bridal style.

He turned his head towards the cloaked figures.

"Ciao," he smirked.

Jumping through the window with a terrified Hajime in his arms, he landed gracefully on the blades of grass outside.

Then, he ran like a madman.

Antagonist could easily tell that Hajime was drenched with fear. His eyes were closed tightly and he was hugging onto the book. In addition to that, the oath had made him linked to Hajime's emotions.

Pathetic humans. Antagonist thought. The scenery was blurred around him. Running was only one of his skills.

Unlike Hajime, he wasn't fully human. He was fictional. And fictional people have many of the impossible. Antagonist was one of those people.

He jumped into a nearby manhole, falling into the darkness. He had used this place many times.

"You can open your eyes now," he chuckled.

Hajime's olive eyes opened ever so slightly.

"Where am I?"

"That's a secret too!" He stuck his tongue out.

Just then, he realized that Antagonist was holding him.

"GAH!" he rolled off Antagonist's arms. He landed on the cold floor with a thump.

Since he (Antagonist) and Hajime were linked, a surge of pain shot through Antagonist's body. He flinched.

"Sooooo....." Hajime spoke. "What now? Where am I? Who were those people? What were they there for?"

The albino rubbed the back of his head.

"Geez... You talk so much. Maybe I'll have to seal that mouth of yours too," he chuckled.

That only fueled Hajime's anger even more.

"Well then... that leaves me no choice. Maybe I'll experiment it this one time." Hajime mused.

Antagonist looked at Hajime with a blank face.

"Try what?"

"Antagonist. I order you to tell me what the hell is happening."

Antagonist froze. The collar warmed up yet again. His mind started functioning on its own.

Words poured out of his mouth.

"Those people were after the book, which you are linked to through mind and body. I cannot touch that book, though it is really important, you're the one who can do that. I am to protect the book, which means you too. People will come out of nowhere and ambush you, to try to steal the book for themselves," he finished.

Oh well. He was screwed. This blood oath was such a pain. Why was it even there in the first place? He never asked to be the bodyguard of this hopeless brown-haired idiot. Well, he never had the choice anyway. It was all Him.

Antagonist turned around to face a large heavy metal door, locked by a code.
He punched in the numbers to the password.

"1-1-0-3-7"

Click. The door creaked open, revealing a room.

He stepped inside.

"Are you coming or not?"

"I need more information before I can go inside. I can't just trust anyone anymore. What if you were after the book too? Even though you're a character from the book, it doesn't mean that you aren't also after the book. I mean, that's kinda like a plot twist right? That's what happens in the story. The protagonist is actually the antagonist. So what if- Mphf!"

Antagonist had leaned over to seal his lips with his own. Just to shut him up.

His lips are warm.

Hajime pulled away, flustered. "Wha-?"

"Did you like my gift? Honestly, it was only to shut you up since I can't put duck tape on your face. You asked too many questions... So it was your doing," he laughed.

Hajime wiped his mouth.

"You're so disgusting."

"Thanks. I'll take that as a compliment." He winked.

He turned around, his coat flying out behind him and walked into the room, leaving Hajime behind. But he knew he couldn't be away from him from a long distance. Literally. It was one of the contract rules.
He gingerly touched his lips.

He also knew the consequences of kissing the person he had to protect.

But... he had to do it.

He wasn't going to let what happened last time happen again this time.

This time would be different.

He would protect this boy. Even if it would cost him his life. Besides, it would be interesting to see what he would do next...
