Sanctuary (Karma Akabane x OC)

An Unlikely Bond

He chuckled coldly before turning to walk away from the girl. However, Katsuna was not just about to leave this conversation unfinished, in return, grabbing the boy's arm, making his face whip round in surprise. Without missing a beat, Katsuna swung her hand around, colliding it with Karma's cheek. This sent the boy's head quickly whipping to the side from the impact, caught off guard by the attack.

"Asshole!" Katsuna shouted, exploding in anger, before grabbing her fallen bag off the floor and marching out of the train station.

This left Karma standing in shock, his hand holding his pulsing red cheek. He started chuckling, the sound slowly becoming a menacing howl, causing the people around him to become uncomfortable and move away. 

After a few seconds, the boy stopped, the anger seeping to the surface once more.

"This isn't over," he growled under his breath, "It's just getting started."

"You slapped him?!" Nagisa spluttered, "Like actually slapped him?"

"Yes, for the hundredth time," Katsuna whined, regretting her choice of speaking out.

Whilst the two were heading up the mountain to the wooden campus, Katsuna had mentioned the situation concerning Karma to her friend. She had ended up losing sleep last night, the incident replaying in her head through til the early hours of the morning. It wasn't the fear of what the boy would do in response that had kept her up but instead the sole factor that, for the first time since being in E Class, she had lost her cool and responded with a violent action.

I guess the stress is really getting to me after all.

She was ashamed of herself and had planned to apologise to the red head before class started.

"I just, I can't believe it," he continued, wide eyed at the earlier remark, "And you're telling me he didn't react at all?"

"I'm saying I left before he could react," she mumbled, lowering her gaze to her feet, "I was just so angry for some reason, it's not like me."

"No-No," Nagisa carried on, shaking his head at the girl, "I mean he didn't run after you or anything?"

Katsuna turned her head to face Nagisa in confusion, "No? But like I said I got out of there pretty damn fast, I doubt he had time to catch up."

Nagisa soften his eyes at her reply and mumbled something under his breath.

"What?" the wavy haired girl asked, thinking she misheard something Nagisa said.

"It's nothing," he smiled, speeding his pace up, "Come on, we're going to be late at this rate!"

The pair opened the door to their class, cutting off their chatter as they encountered the bleak mood of their fellow students. Katsuna scanned the classroom, confused by the quiet unsettled faces of her classmates. She met eyes with a certain redhead who was sat smugly in his chair, grinning over the discomfort shown in the faces of the other students.

"Katsuna look," Nagisa murmured, pointing to the teacher's desk.

She followed his line of sight, gasping in horror as she witnessed the cause of the unnerving atmosphere.

"Good Morning you two," Koro-sensei chuckled, appearing suddenly behind both students, "And Good Morning boys and gir-".

The teacher stopped still, his voice disappearing as he looked upon the disheartening sight before him.
