The Contest for Family Head [DISCONTINUED]

Chapter 1: The Notice

It was a day like any other, all the students of Luna Nova just finished their morning classes, now they were slowly but surely filling the cafeteria to get their lunches. While the other students were getting in lines to get their food, the red, blue, and green teams were lively chatting and laughing, since they already got their food first.

"Like I was saying, let's all go to town and buy some snacks for the sleepover tonight, and besides, it's a Friday night, who would want to spend a perfectly good Friday night, studying." Amanda states.

"Well, unlike you, O'Neil. I believe every day is suitable for studying." Diana protests.

"Oh, how could I have forgotten about you. Please forgive me, princess." The fiery-haired witch rolls her eyes and leans back on her chair.

The platinum witch was about to respond but was interrupted by a goblin. "Hey, Akko, you've got a letter." The goblin takes out a red envelope and hands it to the brunette.

"Thanks, Gobiru. Who's it from?" Akko asks, looking over the envelope.

"No idea, I just came here to deliver. See ya later, Akko, I have more mails to deliver." The goblin worker waves at the witch and walks out of the cafeteria.

"Can't believe you even befriended the fairies and the workers. What are you, the Friendship God?" Sucy deadpans.

Ignoring her friends teasing and giggling, Akko ripped open the envelope and read it. The letter was in Japanese and it was from her family. Due to the jokes and laughter, no one realized that the brunette's expression was slowly morphing into a deep frown. During the reading, Akko tried to calm herself by drinking her glass of water, but to her avail, it didn't work. Her friends' lively chatter was interrupted by a loud crash, similar to one of breaking glass. All eyes were on the brunette even the neighboring students, what they saw was an alien expression on the brunette's face, the usual happy-go-lucky, friendly girl was gone, instead, there was a girl full of anger and hatred, she had a dark expression that no one had ever seen, she looked livid. The loud crashing noise was the glass Akko was drinking from, now in her hand was multiple glass shards covered in dark crimson. As blood slowly started to drip from the girl's hand to the tabletop, the platinum blond finally snapped out of her stupor and grasped the brunette's shoulder.

"Akko, stop! Your hand!" Diana shrieked, worries covering her voice.

Taking a deep breath, Akko finally released her grip on her glass or what remained of it. Crumpling up the letter, she stood up and told her friends. "Sorry for making you worry guys but I wound be able to go to the sleepover tonight." As she tried to leave, Avary went up to her, and forcefully grabbed her hand.

"Where do you think you're going, Kagari. Don't you think we all need an explanation for your sudden outburst? Don't let your little fame get to your head, we all remember what kinda screw up were and you still are, you're still a useless little muggle and now you don't have the Shiney Rod, you're useless." Avary mocked, some of the students started to laugh with her.

The green, blue and red team were about to counter the mocking, Akko quickly moved her arm and quickly gripped Avery's collar and slammed her against one of the pillars with a loud slam. With the sudden impact the students and Avary stopped laughing, the girl winced in pain, she was about to retaliate but when she looked at her captor's dark red eyes, she felt hilt run down her spine. The bluenette was petrified, and eyes full of fear didn't give it away, surely her shaken body was.

In a dark and serious tone, Akko spoke calmly and quietly but enough for all the students to hear, since the room was so quiet. "Usually I would play along with you pointless teasing but today, today is not the day. I am in a really bad mood today and if you mess with me again, I will ruin yous and your family's life, I have more than enough connections and materials to do so. And don't you think for a second I'll hesitate." By this point, all the students were equally frightened, no one could tell how much fear the bluenette felt. When Akko let loose of her grip from the girl's collar, Avary fell to the floor, shivering and quietly sobbing. Without a single glance, Atsuko finally left the cafeteria, leaving behind shocked, frightened, and bewildered girls.

"Didn't know Akko could be so..." Amanda trailed off, at a loss of words.

"Scary?"

"Serious?"

"Livid?"

"Angry?"

"Threatening?"

"Blood curling?"

"Fearsome?"

"I believe the correct word is intimidating." Diana chimped in.

"But, there was something sexy about that too, ya know?" Amanda commented. No one disagreed just quietly nodded.
