  5. Part I (1/17/16):
  6. Oh wow, high school... really takes me back to how brash I used to be
  7.  
  8. >be a transfer student from a mainly human filled school to one with an even distribution of mamono and human students
  9. >parents thought I should be more [spoiler]CULTURALLY COMPETENT[/spoiler]
  10. >like I really care about that type of stuff anyways
  11. >the only thing that really kept me going was the endless supply of [spoiler]chinese[/spoiler] cartoons and comics that the internet provided
  12. >didn't even talk to anyone back in my old school so going to another school seems like a drag
  13.  
  14. >it's my first day at this school
  15. >hallways were about 3 times as wide as the hallways at my old school
  16. >probably to make up for the *cough cough* [spoiler]larger students[/spoiler] *cough cough*
  17. >as soon as I thought that a centaur tramples right past me, knocking me over to the side causing me to bump into something head first
  18. >the centaur looks back as she slows down and realizes what she's done
  19. >"ah, I'm s-...."
  20. >at that moment, her face shifted from apologetic to pure terror
  21. >she quickly galloped out of sight around the corner from vision
  22. >rubbing my head, I wonder what that was about
  23. >more importantly, it felt more like I hit a steel wall....
  24. >wait a second
  25. >I slowly turn to face the supposed wall I hit to face a body of crimson
  26. >"OI! Who do you think you're running into?"
  27. >I slowly lift my head to get a look at her face, noticing that she was slightly taller than me by a couple of inches
  28. >she had 2 short, protruding horns from her forehead that stuck out about 3 inches
  29. >above that she had short, brownish gray hair that made her look tomboyish
  30. >"OI! Are you listening to me!?"
  31. >she grabbed me by both my shoulders and shook me violently
  32. >feeling dizzy, I look into her amber eyes causing her to stop the shaking
  33. >"I-I-I'm Anon. I'm the new transfer student. Today is my first day here."
  34. >the oni smirks
  35. >"Eh~ Is that so..."
  36. >her smirk turns into a full blown toothy smile
  37. >"Welcome to our school [spoiler]:D[/spoiler]!"
  38. >I sigh in relief
  39. >this could've gotten a lot worse
  40. >"T-thank y-"
  41. >she waves her hand to cut me off
  42. >"Soo... where's you're admission fee?"
  43. >wat.jpg
  44. >"What do you me-"
  45. >she quickly extends her arm and squeezes my left shoulder, sending a sharp pain through my body that causes me to collapse on the ground
  46. >"AHH!"
  47. >I hold my shoulder with my right hand, hoping the pain with subside and suddenly noticing the hallways are empty
  48. >aw man, just my luck running into someone like this on my first day
  49. >she slowly kneels down to my body and whispers in my ear
  50. >"You see... I run this school around here. Make sure not to forget that~!"
  51. >the bell rings [spoiler]thank God, holy shit[/spoiler]
  52. >she gets up on her feet and turns away from me
  53. >"The name is Akki by the way. Make sure you bring me something to eat by 11 PM sharp today or else!"
  54. >she slowly walks off to go to her first period class with a snicker
  55. >while the pain in my arm is finally subsiding, the pain in my heart is approaching like a storm
  56. >tears streaming down my face, I hit the ground in frustration
  57.  
  58. Just wait Akki! I'll get you back for this!
  59.  
  60. Part II (1/18/16):
  61. >>130353
  62.  
  63. >I pick myself up and trudge along to my first period class
  64. >the halls are completely empty since classes have started by now
  65. >oh boy, I really didn't want to stick out at this school
  66. >cursing under my breath, I open the door to the geometry class
  67.  
  68. >as I entered the door, it seems like I was interrupting everyone's conversation because the room got silent the moment I walked in
  69. >"Ehem, who might you be?"
  70. >I turned to see an older man writing down the pythagorean theorem up on the board
  71. >he turned his head to face me
  72. >the first thing I noticed, was his bushy, grey mustache that oozed with manliness
  73. >"I'm the new transfer student, Anon."
  74. >he extended his hand and shook mine with firmness and a warm smile on his face
  75. >"Oh nice to meet you, Anon. I'll overlook your tardiness since it's your first day but make sure you show up on time next time."
  76. >my heart lightens to know that I'm not in trouble
  77. >"T-thank you, Mr..."
  78. >he extends his arm to point over to an empty seat in the last row
  79. >"Wright. You can take the seat there in the back"
  80. >as I head down the rows of desks, I hear whispers between the other students
  81. >"Hey look, so that's the new kid"
  82. >"Hmm~... Doesn't look anything special"
  83. >"Yeah, I saw him getting into some trouble earlier"
  84. >"I heard that he's already been claimed by Akki"
  85. >I sit down at my desk and put my hands over my head
  86. >there's no way, right?
  87. >to be claimed so quickly, by a bully like her?
  88. >a shiver shot up my spine as I could only hear the whispers coming from the other students' mouths
  89. >the voices trail along and cloud my mind, filling my head with dread
  90. >"Anon..?"
  91. >the sweet voice snapped me back into reality, a light in the darkness
  92. >the turn to see who called my name
  93. >it was none other than the centaur from this morning
  94. >I swear something inside me ignited, causing my blood to boil
  95. >"IT'S YOU!"
  96. >whoops, I said that too loudly
  97. >everyone in class looked back at me including Mr. Wright
  98. >"Anon, are you feeling alright? We're in the middle of class right now."
  99. >I feel the blood rush to my face
  100. >"Oh no, sorry. My bad."
  101. >the lesson then resumes as there is about 25 or so minutes left in class
  102. >I suddenly feel something thin poke me in the arm
  103. >it's a sheet of paper with something written on it
  104. >I look up to see the centaur girl smile meekly at me
  105. >I take the paper from her hands so Mr.Wright doesn't notice and started reading the message
  106.  
  107. >"I'm sorry about what happened earlier. I hope you can forgive me. Btw, my name is Lilly"
  108. >heh, I hastily start scribbling text to respond
  109. >"Whatever, it doesn't really matter anymore. What's done is done."
  110. >she gives me a pouty look
  111. >"I really mean it Anon. I may have run away back then, but I'll take full responsibility."
  112. >hmm
  113. >"Really, it's okay, but if you feel bad, tell me about Akki and I'll forgive you completely."
  114. >she's sighs in relief and happily jots down her next message
  115.  
  116. "Well, as you experienced earlier, she's extremely aggressive and she gets into fights very often with the other aggressive students and always ends up winning against every encounter; however, unlike the other oni that I've seen, she's pretty solitary and I think she isolates herself with her over the top behavior, so I don't think she has many, if any friends. Earlier though, I think this is the first time she's ever picked on a human male. She typically only goes after other girls who are strong."
  117.  
  118. >the bell rings as I read the last sentence of her note
  119. >I get out of my seat with backpack and note in hand with new found determination
  120. >"Thank you, Lilly. I'll talk to you later."
  121. >I walk out of the door to my other class while Lilly waves me goodbye
  122. >Gym next, huh?
  123. >the class is straight down the hall, and entering the door was that shade of crimson I recognized
  124. >shit, she's gonna be in my gym class?
  125. My body was [spoiler]not[/spoiler] ready for this!
  126.  
  127. Part III (1/19/16):
  128. >>130533
  129.  
  130. >when her body is completely inside the room and out of sight, I shiver in anticipation
  131. >I can feel back of my t shirt beginning to get drenched in sweat upon my back
  132. >my heart feels like it's going to beat out of my chest as start to shake
  133. >Oh man, what am I going to do?
  134. >I wait outside the entrance to the gym, looking through the slit in the door to scout the area
  135. >Akki is sitting over in the corner on a bench by herself while the other few students that were there talked amongst each other
  136. >not good
  137. >if I go in now, she'll notice me immediately
  138. >...
  139.  
  140. >I wait a couple of minutes for an opportunity and alas! My salvation is finally here!
  141. >it was a group of about 6 guys walking towards the gym door
  142. >"Aw shit dude, that game was sick last night!"
  143. >"I know right!?"
  144. >looks like they're talking about something; maybe they won't notice if I slip in behind them
  145. >they all opened the door and went in the gym 1 at a time while continuing their conversation
  146. >I finally entered in last noticing how huge the gym was even with it moderately filled with students already
  147. >must be to accommodate for the mamono, huh
  148. >I look to see if Akki has noticed me, but to my success, she doesn't seem to be paying attention [spoiler]MISSION COMPLETE[/spoiler]
  149. >I continue walking with the group of guys to the opposite corner of the gym and one of them noticed my presence
  150. >"Oh, what's up? Never seen you around before. You must be new."
  151. >oh shit, I looked around to see if anyone heard him cause the openness of the gym caused his voice to travel a little
  152. >seems, like everyone is too engaged in their own conversation
  153. >"Y-yeah, I'm new here. My name's Anon."
  154. >he extended his arm and we shook hands
  155. >"So, are you hiding from someone? You were pretty close to us there."
  156. >goddammit, just let me blend in with you guys without any trouble
  157. >"Y-yeah, sorry."
  158. >they all chuckled a little, making my heart jump cause the other students started to notice
  159. >I turned my back so they couldn't see my face
  160. >"Hey dude, don't sweat it. Since you're new, you can stick with us for a little bit, but whoever you're hiding from will notice eventually."
  161. >I looked at him with a shudder
  162. >"Why d-do you say that?"
  163. >he points his thumb at his nose
  164. >"Smell. Mamono can track the scent of their prey to hunt him down, especially in gym class because the sweat you produce will amplify your stench, making you irresistible."
  165. >wow, I never thought of that; I should be careful not to overdo it
  166. >wait a second
  167. >I feel my back and it's soaked as shit
  168. >I turn my head slowly back to the bench
  169. >Akki was staring me straight in the eyes with a huge smile on her face
  170. [spoiler]Fuck[/spoiler]
  171.  
  172. >I feel a large slap on my back, ow
  173. >"Good luck, Anon. She's a wild one"
  174. >all the guys burst out in laughter
  175. >what a bunch of assholes
  176. >Akki waved me over with an intense look in her eyes
  177. >my body moved towards her involuntarily probably due to the fear of disobeying
  178. >I plop my body on the bench right next to her, shivering
  179. >"Hey buddy! How was you're first period class? I missed you so much already!"
  180. >I murmured trying not to piss myself
  181. >"I-it was good, I guess."
  182. >"That's nice to hear~. You ready to have some fun? Gym is my favorite class."
  183. >she slings her arm around my shoulder and pulls me near her tightly
  184. >I struggle to scoot away from her a little, which was a terrible idea
  185. >she pulled me in even closer and squeezed my arm with the force of 10 gorillas
  186. >"AHH"
  187. >my body locks in pain as I slowly slump over into Akki's body
  188. >her skin is soft and tender so I could ignore pain in my arm more easily
  189. >yet when I get a closer look, underneath the red surface is lean muscle that's not too bulky but you could tell that her body was well defined
  190. >she takes both her arms and wraps it around me, which surprised me since she was rough before
  191. >she tilts her head down and sinks her nose into my hair, tickling my scalp
  192. >"Anon, you smell pretty good."
  193. >she held me for a few seconds before she realized what she was doing
  194. >her eyes opened up wide with her face became an extremely dark shade of red
  195. >she hastily pushed me away, causing me to fall of the bench onto the wooden gym floor
  196.  
  197. >suddenly a loud whistle blew with a booming voice following after
  198. >"ALRIGHT! Everyone start up light jog inside the gym!"
  199. >Akki picks me up by my arm and gets me on my feet with a child-like grin
  200. >"Come on Anon, let's go!"
  201.  
  202. [spoiler]Oh boy, this is going to be a long class[/spoiler]
  203.  
  204. Part IV (1/21/16):
  205. >>131044
  206.  
  207. >everyone in the gym started up a light jog
  208. >the humans and mamono with [spoiler]normal legs[/spoiler] ran on the outside edge while the other ones stuck closer to the center
  209. >probably to protect their tails/legs from getting in the way or being stepped on
  210. >I jogged along the walls of the gym to prevent being trampled by the other students who were more in shape than I was
  211. >however, Akki jogged right behind me the whole time regardless even though she could easily pass by me at any time
  212. >we've been jogging for about a minute and I'm already starting to get tired
  213. >I look back at Akki with a tired expression
  214. >"Akki, you can go on ahead if I'm slowing you down"
  215. >She smiles at me wryly
  216. >"Okay, if you say so"
  217. >phew, she's finally gonna leave me alo-....
  218. >FLOP FLOP FLOP
  219. >damn it, she's stepping on the back of my shoes!
  220. >I turn back around and she's trying to hold back her laughter
  221. >"pff~"
  222. >"Akki, please! Stop being such a- OH"
  223. >I launch forward, head first into the wooden gym floor detached from my shoes
  224. >"Whoops, ha ha"
  225. >the other students run past me while looking back and trying to hold back their laughter
  226. >man, not again; this girl only gives me trouble
  227. >"HEY YOU THERE! QUIT SLACKING OFF!"
  228. >oh, it's the gym teacher
  229. >"Anon, come on, we have to keep moving"
  230. >she extends her arm with a warm smile on her face
  231. >oh sweet, she must feel guilty now
  232. >I reach out to grab her hand
  233. >"Thanks Akki"
  234. >ZAP
  235. >"HNNG, ow"
  236. >I tried to yank my hand from hers, but her grip was crushing my hand and something was sending a shock through my body
  237. >she pulled me up with a whoosh and let go of my hand revealing a hand zapper
  238. >"Heh, got you good, didn't I Anon?~"
  239. >she snickers, then rotates me to the correct orientation
  240. >"Break time is over Anon. Now get moving!"
  241. >she kicks me in my back to get me going
  242. >"Don't need to tell me twice!"
  243. >I rub my back while picking up the pace to continue with the rest of the class
  244. >looking back I see a pleased look on Akki's face
  245.  
  246. >10 minutes later, the gym teacher gathers us toward the center of the gym
  247. >"Get with a partner and lets get stretching starting with our legs!"
  248. >get a partner? [spoiler]shit[/spoiler]
  249. >I look to find a human male and see one several feet from me
  250. >I start to wave and move towards him
  251. >"Hey! Want to buddy u-"
  252. >YANK
  253. >I suddenly get pulled by my left arm and fall on my back sliding to see my adversary above me with crossed arms
  254. >"Anon, what do you think you're doing?"
  255. >damn it, leave me alone for once
  256. >"N-nothing. Just... you know?"
  257. >she doesn't look pleased
  258. >"No, I don't know. Lets start, shall we?"
  259. >she sits down right in front of me and puts her feet inside the gap created by my legs
  260. >"Huh?"
  261. >she then spreads her legs slowly causing the gap in mine to grow bigger and bigger causing the tension to build
  262. >"HNNG"
  263. >Akki shakes her head with a sigh
  264. >"That's no good Anon. You gotta build up that flexibility. No wonder, you're so tense all the time... I can help you out that you know~"
  265. >wut
  266. >"W-what do you mean, 'help me out?'"
  267. >an evil grin suddenly stretches across her face
  268. >"LIKE THIS! HORA!"
  269. >her legs suddenly jolted apart causing mine to be perfectly horizontal
  270. >"AHH"
  271. >oh my god, the pain is unbearable
  272. >the tears start to build up in my eyes as my body shakes in reaction to pain
  273. >"AKKI, WHY!?"
  274. >she then reaches out and caress my cheek with her hand
  275. >her hand was very soft and warm making me completely ignore my pain
  276. >she looked straight into my eyes with a loving look on her face
  277. >"That's it Anon. Just look at me. We're going to get through this together."
  278. >I did just that for the remainder of the stretches and it went by like a breeze
  279. >what is it with this girl?
  280.  
  281. >a loud whistle blew signalling the end of our stretching
  282. >"Alright everyone! Come pick up your jersey and split up into two teams. Time for some Dodgeball!"
  283. >dodgeball, huh?
  284. >everyone was getting rallied up and the gym almost became it's own little stadium
  285. >with Akki supporting me, there's no way our team will lose
  286. >I pick up a blue jersey and put it over my torso and look around for Akki
  287. >wait, where'd she go?
  288. >I look at all the different faces that the blue team had but I couldn't find her, so I checked the other team, scanning their faces...
  289. >And there she was!
  290. >she waved to me without restraint and picked up a ball from the floor
  291. >[spoiler]welp, I guess my life was well lived. I regret nothing[/spoiler]
  292. >she then cupped her hands like a megaphone and shouted amongst all the voices in the gym
  293. >"I hope my feelings reaches you from way over here~!"
  294. >what?
  295. >I couldn't hear her; there were way too many people talking in the gym so I just shrugged it off
  296. >a loud whistle blow indicated the start of the match
  297. >I locked eyes with Akki cause she must be up to something
  298. >she then took the ball in her hand and kissed it...
  299. >what the hell is she doing? [spoiler]kek[/spoiler]
  300. >then a flicker in her eyes caused me to freeze in place
  301. >shit, she's aiming for me! I gotta pick up a ball or else!
  302. >I bent over to grab a ball, but the ball had left her hand already!
  303. >it spiraled through the air, slicing through the air silently closing in to my lowered head
  304. >the balls smacks me right on my cheek causing it to explode with a loud pop
  305. >I flew backwards and slid across the floor, spinning on my way to the wall
  306. >everyone paused their ball throwing to look at my mangled body
  307. >the gym then filled with laughter, which was quickly interrupted by the stern voice of the teacher
  308. >"AKKI! What did I tell you about limiting your strength?"
  309. >she scratched her head and shrugged
  310. >"My bad [spoiler]:P[/spoiler]"
  311. >I was out, but the game continued for another 15 minutes while I sat against the wall, trying to cool down my cheek with my cold hand
  312.  
  313. >suddenly the school bell rang, signaling the next period
  314. >I looked down at my watch; it was 10:45
  315. >I then looked back up and Akki was already in front of me
  316. >"Hey, don't forget the promise. 11 AM sharp" [spoiler]shit, I said PM in my earlier post. my bad guys[/spoiler]
  317. >oh crap, I completely forgot
  318. >"Y-yeah... I'll be right there. I got to go to the bathroom real quick though"
  319. >Akki then stuck her tongue out at me cutely
  320. >"Okay~! Don't keep me waiting too long! I'll be in the courtyard waiting for you then~!"
  321. >she then walks off out of the gym and fades into the crowd of students outside
  322. >I wait a couple of minutes in the gym for all the students to exit
  323. >...
  324. >Ha, she thinks she can order me around after all the stuff she did to me? Screw this!
  325. >I walked outside using the emergency exit sneakily with my bag over my shoulder, sighing in relief
  326. >I walk along the backside of the school, trying to find a place to eat my food in peace, but it seems like today just isn't my lucky day
  327. >in front of a dumpster are 2 orc girls smoking cigarettes
  328. >one of them locks eyes with me immediately
  329. >"Hey, you there! You didn't see shit!"
  330. >she walks up to me pulls the collar of my shirt menacingly to get a closer look at me
  331. >"Oh look! What do we have here? You must be the new kid that everyone's talking about! Akki's boytoy!"
  332. >oh crap
  333. >"You know, Akki has given us a lot of trouble in the past. Maybe it's time for us to pay her back for what she did to us"
  334. [spoiler]I guess this is it then? Already getting fucked up on my first day of school, great![/spoiler]
  335.  
  336. Part V (1/24/16):
  337. >>132006
  338.  
  339. >the orc girl flicked away her cigarette and suddenly kneed me in the stomach, causing me a gasp and fall to my knees
  340. >"ACK"
  341. >I spit out on the ground, holding my stomach in pain
  342. >Jeez, what a kick
  343. >she grabs my hair and pulls my head up to look me in the eyes while her snout-like nose is inches from my face
  344. >"Hmm, down already? How pathetic."
  345. >she takes her other hand and smashes me in the nose with her fist
  346. >I jerk back making my head hit the pavement as my nose starts to drip with blood
  347. >"Wow, I can't believe someone like you was chosen by Akki."
  348. >she slowly walks over to my body and crouches then waves her friend over, who was still smoking and leaning against the wall
  349. >"You see... Akki has really given us a beating in the past, but we still acknowledge that she's still too strong for us to take on so..."
  350. >she slowly caresses my torso with her hands, which sent a jolt of uneasiness through my body
  351. >"Since you're here, we may have a chance at revenge after all."
  352. >she moves her hand down towards the front of my shorts with a smug look on her face
  353. >I slap her hand away swiftly and scoot my body backwards while holding my nose as the blood began to profusely spill
  354. >I finally hit the wall with my back and try to stand back up, but a swift kick to my shin caused me to slump down in pain
  355. >she then took her leg and continuously kicked me in my stomach, which each blow feeling my I'm getting slammed with a reinforced steel pipe
  356. >"You stupid asshole. How dare you try to resist me? Know your place!"
  357. >she then takes the cigarette from her friend's fingers
  358. >"I'll forgive you for now if you stick out your hand"
  359. >I put my hands behind my back in resistance but instantly regretted my decision
  360. >"Still resisting, huh? You got a lot of fight in ya, I'll give you that, but there's a time and place for everything"
  361. >she hits me in the throat causing me gag, which she uses the opportunity to swiftly grab the tongue from my mouth
  362. >"You could've prevented this"
  363. >she takes the still lit cigarette and presses the burning tip directly on my tongue
  364. >the ash broke off from the cigarette, which I accidentally swallowed from inhaling due to the pain
  365. >coughing violently as my throat is coated in ash, my eyes start to water up
  366. >why? why is this happening to me? who is Akki really? what did I do to deserve this? what are they planning on doing to me?
  367. >why am I so powerless?
  368. > I feel so ashamed
  369. >"Aw, you're not putting up a fight anymore? I was just beginning to have fun... Oh well. Time for the best part!"
  370. >she slips her fingers into my pants and shifts them down my legs revealing my boxers
  371. >I don't even try to resist anymore at this point; she's too strong and there's nothing I can do
  372. >she then takes her hand and reaches inside my boxers and grabbed my man-sausage with the grip of an ape
  373. >so this is how I lose my virginity, huh?
  374.  
  375. >"HEY YOU THERE! What's going on over there!?"
  376. >I hear a loud, but familiar voice
  377. >I squint in the distance to see who it was.... and ah!
  378. >It's Mr. Wright sprinting over here
  379. >"Oh shit! We got to go! I can't afford another suspension, so let's get outta here!"
  380. >she removes her hand from my crotch and flees from the scene and looking back with one last glance
  381. >"Don't think this is over yet! We'll continue this later~"
  382. >as they left my vision, Mr. Wright finally reaches me with an exasperated look on his face
  383. >"Hey Anon. Are you alright? Do you know the names of those orcs?"
  384. >I begin to pull my pants up in embarrassment
  385. >"Y-yeah *cough* I'm fine. I have no idea who they are though."
  386. >I use the wall to prop myself up one more time as my knees shake from the blows to my stomach and shin start to take its toll on me
  387. >"By the way, what are you doing out here?"
  388. >he offers a hand to assist me in getting up
  389. >"I left my lunch in the car. Lucky I forgot my lunch out here today too ha!"
  390. >he gives a hearty laugh, but becomes serious again
  391. >"Are you sure you're alright Anon? I could look into the case and help give those girls the disciplinary action necessary."
  392. >"Sorry Mr. Wright. This is something I have to deal with on my own. I'm too weak, and I'm sure a situation like this will come up again."
  393. >he gives me a look of concern but eventually understands
  394. >"I see. You can talk to me about it anytime. Don't feel ashamed or anything about asking for help with anything."
  395. >Mr. Wright walks off to the parking lot and we exchange our goodbyes
  396. >I look down at my watch and see that it's 11:05
  397. >maybe if I head back in, I can tell Akki-
  398. >a wave of guilt hits me
  399. >I can't tell her what happened today; she'll definitely be upset about this
  400. >besides, I need the strength to deal with my own issues
  401. >I head back inside the gym door that I came out of
  402. >There aren't any students in here, so I can here eat in peace, and if someone messes with me, there should be cameras to identify them
  403. >I take out the ham and cheese sandwich I made for lunch and unwrap it from its ziploc bag
  404. >I lean down to take a bite, but I begin to choke up with tears streaming down my cheeks
  405. >I hold my arms around my legs and shake as the built up emotions get the better of me
  406. >SLAM
  407. >the entrance to the gym door opened wide as a recognizable red figure stood in the doorway
  408.  
  409. >"Anon! Where the hell were you?"
  410. >please
  411. >she started storming towards me; each footstep echoing in the gym and sent waves of grief in my mind
  412. >"I thought you used the bathroom! I was waiting for you in the courtyard."
  413. >please stop
  414. >"Anon, what's wrong? Why aren't you answering me?"
  415. >she finally reached where I was and her angry face turned into a solemn one
  416. >"Wait a minute. What happened to you? Are you alright? You don't look so good."
  417. >I turned my head away from her in shame and offer my food to her
  418. >"You're hungry right? Here, have my sandwich. I'm not really hungry today."
  419. >I handed over my lunch to her, but she didn't take it
  420. >"No, it's okay Anon. I'm more concerned about you. Did something happen while I was gone?"
  421. >she suddenly grabbed me and sniffed me intently
  422. >"Hmm, tobacco? I didn't smell that on you earlier, and I didn't think you were a smoker..."
  423. >in frustration, I pushed her away, but realized what I was doing
  424. > "Sorry, I didn't mean-. No, I just want to be left alone."
  425. >her face started to scrunch up and she started to shake
  426. >"Anon? Why won't you tell me anything?"
  427. >she looked as if she were going to cry, which surprised me cause she's usually thick headed and demanding so this is a surprising change
  428. >it feels wrong man
  429. >"I'm sorry Akki. I'm gonna go home. I don't feel so good."
  430. >Akki gently smiles at me
  431. >"Okay Anon, I understand, but if you're going to leave, let me give you my number."
  432. >She takes out the phone from her pocket to insure she gets my number as well
  433. >we exchange numbers and I turn to head out the emergency exit once again but her voice stopped me briefly
  434. >"Anon, you can talk to me if you need anything. I'll always be here for you, don't forget that!"
  435. >I close the door behind me leaving the gym and the vibration in my pockets startles me
  436. >I take a look and read that Akki has sent me a message
  437. >"I love you, Anon"
  438. >the text hits me with a pain in my chest
  439. >why? she's too good for someone like me!
  440. >I hit the wall causing the skin on my fist to break
  441.  
  442. >I walk away from the school and wander down the street aimlessly and reflect on the events that took place
  443. >if anything is obvious, it's that I'm too weak
  444. >I want to become stronger...No, I NEED to become stronger
  445. >I'm sick of being laughed at and treated like a powerless rag doll
  446. >continuing down a road, I notice the sound booming strikes
  447. >what is that?
  448. >I find the source is coming from a ragged building with boarded windows
  449. >I take a peek inside, and its filled with beefy men equipped with red boxing gloves
  450. >one guy is in there punching the bags, another is jumping rope, some weight lifting
  451. >I looked in awe
  452. >"Man, I wish I could become strong too..."
  453. >cough cough
  454. >I look over and I see a smaller, older man next to me with a cheeky grin on his face
  455. >"Hmm, what do we have here? Want to try it out!?"
  456. >He nudged me with his walking stick to provoke me
  457. >"Heh, heh. I know you want to try! I can see the determination in your eyes!"
  458. >he took out a business card from coat pocket and handed it to me
  459. >"If you're too busy today, you can come back later. Just call the number and we can get you all set up!"
  460. >he stuck his thumb out at me in reassurance
  461. >"M-maybe. I'll think about it. I do have to get going though. See you old man!"
  462. >I quickly run off and avoid anymore conversation
  463. >whew that was a close one; I'm not in the mood for this anyways
  464.  
  465. >I head home and plunk myself in my bed and looked up at my ceiling
  466. >man what an shitty day! I'm just going to do what I do best, nothing
  467. >as the images of today fly through my head, I feel the uneasiness build up in my chest
  468. >I stayed home for the rest of the day skipping the rest of my classes and Akki sending me an occasional text asking if I was okay
  469. >"Boxing, huh?"
  470.  
  471.  
  472. Part VI (1/29/16):
  473. >>132982
  474.  
  475. >BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP
  476. >my alarm goes off loudly signaling the start of another day
  477. >I eat a quick breakfast and head out to go to school
  478. >hopefully the teachers won't be too mad at me for skipping the second half of classes yesterday
  479. >while I walk, I think about the events that took place yesterday and decided that it's a new day, so things should hopefully go differently
  480. >however, I couldn't shake off the uneasiness of being assaulted by the orcs
  481. >I make my way to the front gates of the school and sighed
  482. >breathe in, breathe out; everything is going to be alright
  483. >as I step forward to make my way to the door, I felt a sudden tug on my arm and was pulled to the side with a great force
  484. >I was then embraced tightly between two arms and was pressed up against a soft body
  485. >"Good morning, Anon! You walked right by me without even noticing me... Oh well! I got your attention now!"
  486. >the voice was filled with joy causing me to be filled with a wave of relief
  487. >I slowly look up at her smiling, red face with her short hair falling over her 2 horns that protruded from her head
  488. >"Good morning Akki."
  489. >she released me and backed up jollily with her hands behind her back
  490. >"I know I sent you a couple of texts, but are you doing alright, Anon?"
  491. >wow, she's still worried about me
  492. >"Yeah, I'm alright now... thanks to you."
  493. >she hit me on the shoulder playfully, or at least attempted to make it seem that way but it sure hurt
  494. >"Oh~ You're just saying that! Don't tease me, Anon! I haven't even done anything!"
  495. >she is right though; she hasn't done anything since all she did was talk to me...
  496. >"I'm telling the truth though. When you're around, I feel more at ease for some reason. Come on, let's head inside"
  497. >I start heading inside the door while Akki stood outside briefly before catching up with me with her hands trying to cover her face
  498. >"I-I'll see you in gym class, dork~!"
  499. >she runs off flustered, bumping into a couple of students on her way to her first class
  500. >you know, she's not as bad as I made her out to be when I first bumped into her
  501. >I went inside the geometry class where I was greeted with a friendly smile by Mr. Wright
  502. >Lily, the centaur, waved at me with a warm look
  503. >"Good morning, Anon"
  504. >hmm, maybe today will be a better day
  505.  
  506. >class was boring and long as expect but ended faster than I imagined
  507. >the bell rang and everyone got up to go to their next class as I stretched from my grogginess
  508. >time for gym, I guess
  509. >I grabbed my bag and got up out of my seat to leave, but a delicate hand pulled on the back of my shirt
  510. >"Um Anon"
  511. >I looked back and saw Lily's delicate face looking as if she's bothered by something
  512. >"Hey Lily, what's up?"
  513. >she twiddled her thumbs a little and looked away sheepishly
  514. >"You haven't really talked to me this period. Are you upset still?"
  515. >heh, she's still thinking about that?
  516. >"Nah, not at all Lily. I told you that I forgave you when you told me about Akki, so don't worry about it."
  517. >she looked back at me innocently
  518. >"Oh okay. I was hoping to be your friend, but I wasn't sure if you were still mad or not..."
  519. >oh I see
  520. >"Hey, don't sweat it. In my book, we're already friends. I gotta go though or else Akki will get upset. See you later!"
  521.  
  522. >I left the room with bag in hand waving back at Lily, but as I left the door, I immediately hit something causing me to close my eyes and flinch
  523. >oh boy, Akki must've been waiting for me again!
  524. >"HEY! Who do you think you are!? Oh... it's you~"
  525. >that voice
  526. >it's unsettling and fills me with terror
  527. >I slowly open my eyes to see a green, tusked figure; my tormentor from yesterday but it doesn't seem like her friend is with her right now
  528. >"Hmm, want to go for round 2?"
  529. >she pulls me in close and drags me away from the door quickly and takes me over against a row of lockers
  530. >"You little shit! You got off lucky last time. Today you won't be as lucky!"
  531. >she pushes me up against the lockers with her arm pushing me against the locker while she leans in to whisper in my ear
  532. >"Why don't we get to business right now?"
  533. >she swiftly punches me in the stomach causing me to spit
  534. >I slump over on her shoulder and see the passerby quickly hurry away to avoid getting involved
  535. >assholes... every single one of them
  536. >she then pushes me off of her and swings her arm to hook me in the jaw making to fall over sideways onto the ground
  537. >man, I thought things would be different today too
  538. >she then kicks me repeatedly in the stomach like yesterday
  539.  
  540. >suddenly she stopped the barrage and looked down the hallway
  541. >"Pick yourself up and get that pathetic look off of yer face. We'll continue this during lunch like yesterday. Don't be late or you're dead!"
  542. >I pull myself up against the lockers and realized that a certain oni came running down the halls towards us
  543. >"Hey Anon, I came to pick you up so we can go to gym class together... Wait a sec. Hilda, is that you?"
  544. >Hilda? So that's her name, huh?
  545. >"Yeah Akki. I was just here introducing myself to your boyfriend here. I know we've had our differences in the past, but hopefully we can get past that and move on to better things."
  546. >this cunt, I can't believe her
  547. >"B-boyfriend? We aren't like that... yet."
  548. >Akki gets flustered and grabs my hand
  549. >"W-well anyways, we have to get going. Class is about to start in a couple of minutes. Come on, Anon!"
  550. >she takes me by the hand and leads me away from Hilda and I look back at her to see an evil grin upon her face
  551. >"Don't forget what we talked about, Anon."
  552. >jeez, I just can't get a break from all this
  553. >we make our way towards the gym door and Akki looks at me with giddiness
  554. >"You ready, Anon?"
  555. >"Yeah... whatever, lets do this"
  556.  
  557. Part VII (1/30/16):
  558. >>135890
  559.  
  560. >we made our way into the gym that was decently filled with the other students having their own conversations
  561. >Akki took me to sit on the same benches as yesterday; I guess this is "her" bench
  562. >"Ah, it's nice to be with you again. First period was really long and boring."
  563. >she faced me and grinned widely, taking the weight off of my heart
  564. >"By the way Anon... I didn't know you were friends with Hilda. She's a violent one, ha ha!"
  565. >I could feel myself tense up as the I begin to sweat especially in my hand which was still being held by Akki
  566. >"O-oh, is that right? I d-didn't know that."
  567. >Akki sees right through me as I stutter and look away from her
  568. >her grip on my hand becomes tighter as if she were slowly trying to crush my hand into a fine powder
  569. >"Anon! What's your relationship with her? How did you two meet?"
  570. >oh no, she's starting to catch on; I can't let her know the truth or she'd definitely would be upset
  571. >"I ran into her on my way to this class yesterday, and she wanted to meet me since she heard about 'us'"
  572. >as I spit out that half-assed lie, I feel a wave of regret, but Akki eases her grip on my hand and smiles at me
  573. >"Oh I see. That's good then. Hopefully we can all get along this year since she apologized. Who knows~"
  574. >oh man, I hope I don't have to see that orc anymore that would suck
  575. >actually, I think it's about time that I stop taking shit from her; I'm not going to have her walk over me all year
  576. >[spoiler]equal rights, equal fights after all[/spoiler]
  577. >I start to shake in anticipation as I become more and more motivated
  578. >"Akki, you know what? I'm going to take this gym class seriously after all!"
  579. >she looked surprised but nods nevertheless
  580. >"That's great, Anon... Did something change? It seems like you weren't the type of person to like gym."
  581. >a loud whistle blow interrupted our little conversation to signal the short jog
  582. >she's completely right; I don't necessarily enjoy gym, but I need to build myself up if I ever want a chance against Hilda
  583.  
  584. >I jog right next to Akki, pushing myself to continue jogging no matter how much my throat burns
  585. >sweat coats my whole body in a magnificent sheen and my shirt is notably soaked near my armpits and back
  586. >I struggle as my legs began to feel like lead as each step I stretch out to take feels as if it could shatter the wooden floor
  587. >I look over at Akki to see her in fine condition since this is probably child's play to her
  588. >she looks over and pats my sweaty back with a quick smack that sent a slight pain down my spine
  589. >"Keep it up Anon! You're doing great!"
  590. >I feel myself become filled with more and more energy as her words help propel my legs forward until the teacher blows the whistle to start the stretching
  591. >I gasp for air as I sit down to stretch out my legs
  592. >as I reach for my toes, my hamstrings send a tingle up my leg showing how out of shape I am
  593. >finishing the hamstring stretch, Akki puts her legs between mine again
  594. >"Are you ready, Anon?"
  595. >I'm ready for anything
  596. >"Let's do this shit!"
  597. >she slowly widens her legs, pushing mine apart making the tension in my groin hurt more and more
  598. >I look up at her sweet face to take my mind away from the pain
  599. >she sticks out her tongue and reaches her arm out to pinch my cheek
  600. >"Heh heh. Anon, you're really handsome~"
  601. >we did the rest of our stretches like a breeze
  602. >the whistle blew again signaling the recreation time; looks like it's basketball this time
  603. >meh, not much of a fan but whatever
  604. >Akki and I decided to be on the same team this time and we threw some balls around
  605. >[spoiler]nothing interesting really happened for the rest of class[/spoiler]
  606.  
  607. >the ball rang as I was gulping down water from the fountain in the gym for 30 seconds but was yanked from my shirt collar, pulling me away from the fountain
  608. >"Jeez, can't you wait?"
  609. >Akki dips her head down to take a drink too
  610. >whatever, I guess I've been hogging the water
  611. >Akki rises up and stretches her arms up
  612. >"Anon, that sure was a fun period today. I enjoyed it a lot. Lets go get something to eat."
  613. >wait a second
  614. >"S-sorry Akki, I ca-"
  615. >she suddenly grabs my hand tightly and begins taking to towards the gym entrance
  616. >"You can, right? Let's. Eat. Together."
  617. >her grip becomes tighter like a scolding parent at a grocery store
  618. >she must still be worried about what happened yesterday
  619. >"Okay, okay. I get it. Loosen the grip, will ya?"
  620. >her grip did not loosen at all as we head out of the gym to the cafeteria
  621. >she ordered got a slice of pizza and I ordered one as well even though I made my own lunch [spoiler]shit[/spoiler]
  622. >I was then dragged to the courtyard and we both sat under a tree, cooling us in the shade
  623. >she begins to eat without a word; she just ate and looked at me occasionally and I did the same
  624. >there was nothing really to talk about, but it felt nice just to be next to her
  625. >it crossed my mind that Hilda must be pissed, but I was instantly relieved when I saw Akki's calm expression
  626. >I should be fine as long as I'm with Akki, right?
  627.  
  628. Part VIII (2/4/16):
  629. >>136334
  630.  
  631. >lunch is coming to an end as Akki and I finish eating
  632. >I lay back and look up into the sky to get one last breather before I'm faced with the cruelties of life once again
  633. >"Man, I wish this moment could last forever..."
  634. >whoops, did I say that out loud?
  635. >I look over to my red companion to see her face light up and a smile plastered across her face
  636. >"D-do you really feel that way, Anon?"
  637. >she leaned in closer, inches away from my face
  638. >I feel the blood rush towards my face as I'm in a somewhat vulnerable position
  639. >"I... uh"
  640. >my mind goes blank as I feel her warm breath gently tickles my lips
  641. >"I've been thinking all gym class about what Hilda said... and-"
  642. >she swallows and looks away timidly then looks back at me
  643. >"I'd like to know what you think about it"
  644. >oh god, this is happening all so fast; it's only my second day and things are moving at this pace
  645. >she then slowly leans back down onto me and quickly pecks my lips
  646. >I move my arms out from my side and try to create a little space between us so I can talk
  647. >"I, uh. Uhh. I'll think about it!"
  648. >I quickly stood up and made a bee line towards the door that goes inside the school interior but stopped at the door
  649. >Akki's gave me flustered expression that was mixed with a touch of despondence
  650. >aw man
  651. >I waved at her and shouted with cupped hands
  652. >"AKKI, I'LL TALK TO YOU LATER OKAY?"
  653. >her brief sadness was interrupted by my words, and she gave me a toothy grin and waved back shyly
  654. >I headed towards my next class with every step creating a feeling of elation in my chest
  655. >holy shit, what just happened? It all happened too fast
  656. >I pinched myself to check if I was still alive, and to my surprise I was!
  657. [spoiler]I went to the rest of classes I skipped from yesterday, but I didn't miss much so I was fine. They were boring and uninteresting since I didn't know anyone in any of the classes, but I was constantly reminded of the warmth of Akki's kiss race up my spine from time to time[/spoiler]
  658.  
  659. >the bell rang ending my second day of classes
  660. >you know what? It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be.
  661. >I walk out of the main entrance to head home, but I find Hilda waiting on a bench, scanning the passerby's
  662. >oh shit, I completely forgot; she must be pissed
  663. >I walk near a group of people, trying to conceal my presence, but to no avail
  664. >she looks me in the eyes with a ferocity of a demon out for blood
  665. >"HEY YOU PUNK! DON'T THINK YOU'LL GET OFF SO EASY!"
  666. >she jumped up from the bench she was sitting on and started sprinting towards me
  667. >crap crap crap
  668. >I started to run too, pushing my way through the other students
  669. >I turned around to see that she was struggling her way through the students and I took my opportunity to escape down the streets that I explored yesterday
  670. >Hilda broke through the crowd of students and came straight for me at a higher speed
  671. >there's no way I can outrun her; it was only a matter of time before she'll catch up
  672. >I took a quick detour through some guy's property and hopped the fence and treaded through his nicely cut grass in his backyard and made a sharp turn to jump the fence to get back to the front of his house on the other side
  673. >my sudden movements threw off Hilda because as I reentered the front of the house, she was just now hopping the fence to get to the backyard
  674. >I took the opportunity to hastily make my way down the street before she figured out what happened
  675. >pop pop pop
  676. >what's that noise? Sounds like it's coming from a building...
  677. >I look over to see the boxing gym from yesterday is right beside me
  678. >I then turned to see Hilda just now hopping the fence in confusion
  679. >oh boy, better hide
  680. >I enter inside of the boxing gym and hug the wall to wait until Hilda passes by
  681. >she sprints down the street, not noticing that she passed the window I was next to
  682. >ha, that's what you get, bitch!
  683. >wiping the sweat off my face, I turn to see 7 or so men staring at me
  684. >how am I going to explain this one?
  685. >"Hi, uh. I'm Anon. I'm not here to hide from anyone of anything, ha ha! I'm here to join!"
  686. >as I spit out my lie, I see the old man from yesterday make his way out of his office to confront me
  687. >"Oh hey there. It's you again. So you were interested after all?"
  688. >uh oh, my lie is coming full circle
  689. >"N-no, I just-."
  690. >he threw a pair of red mitts at me and I quickly snatched them out of the air
  691. >"Yeah yeah. Here, let me show you how to properly punch."

  695.  
  696. >slipping on the puffy mitts, my hands are completely covered in its tight leather
  697. >"Now boy, let me show you. Close your fist and have your thumb overlap your index and middle finger like this."
  698. >the old man grabbed my hand and moved my thumb in the position he was looking for
  699. >"Hah, yes. Very good! Now let's see you take a swing at one of the bags."
  700. >he pushes me over to one of the many punching bags that are hanging from a chain attached to a pole overhead
  701. >"Now give it a good hit, boy! Show me what you got!"
  702. >I clench my fist tighter and pull my arm back in preparation
  703. >this is for all the shit you put me through Hilda!
  704. >stepping forward, I throw my whole weight at the bag before me along with my fist, sending the bag forward with my body staggering forward due to lack to balance
  705. >the bag then swings back and knocks me on my back
  706. >the old man gives a hearty laugh and offers a hand to assist me back on my feet
  707. >"It's been a while, but let me show you how it's done."
  708. >he puts up a standard, textbook fighting pose
  709. >"A punch is a lot more than just using your arm, sonny."
  710. >he takes in a deep breath
  711. >his foot shifts forward quickly with his waist twisting in unison as his arm extends out towards the bag
  712. >POW
  713. >a nice, meaty sounds echoes throughout the gym
  714. >he then looks at me and smiles
  715. >"See what I mean? Not only does your arm extend outwards, but you have to pay attention to your legs and waist to bring more impact to your punch while allowing you to throw another one. Now let's see you try that again."
  716. >ah, I see; he explanation was simple, yet his demonstration stuck with me
  717. >I replicated his form and went through the motions step-by-step
  718. >I step forward, twist my hips, and extend my arm with a properly closed fist
  719. >POW
  720. >ahh, feels satisfying
  721. >I look over at the old man and see a spark in his eyes and a jolly expression across his face
  722. >"You're a natural, kid. You picked up on it so fast. Here, let me show you some more punches."
  723.  
  724. >we spend a good hour or so throwing punches at a bag in various different ways
  725. >jabs, hooks, uppercuts, and various other punches were taught to me, and I absorbed them all
  726. >sure they lacked power due to my out of shape body, but I could easily emulate the style
  727. >speaking of which, my arms were feeling extremely heavy and I was getting more and more tired as he showed me new techniques
  728. >despite that, the pain was secondary to my feelings of pure glee
  729. >"So what do you say... emm. What did you say your name was again, boy?"
  730. >"My name is Anon, old man. You know, boxing is a lot more fun than I thought it was going to be."
  731. >he slaps me on my back suddenly causing it to sting
  732. >"Oho, I knew I saw something within you. Let's get you all set up in the gym. My name isn't old man though, it's Mr. Smith. There's usually a teacher here that can walk you through everything, but he shows up on the weekends."
  733. >we go into his office and fill out all the paperwork necessary
  734. >looks like I'll be coming here Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays
  735. >hmm, I've never felt this much hype before; I usually don't have anything going on, so this should be a great change to my life
  736. >I leave the gym to see that the sun is setting over the horizon
  737. >the redness of the sky reminds me of Akki
  738. >I wonder how she feels about boxing...
  739. >I walk back to my house with her in mind and take in a nice breath of fresh air
  740. >when I arrive home, I shower and lay in my bed, feeling content in the change of pace
  741. >I grab my phone that was placed on the table next to my bed and turn it on, only to feel a wave of uneasiness
  742. >15 New Messages From Akki
  743. >oh shit, I wasn't paying attention
  744. >Akki: Hey Anon! Want to walk home together~
  745. >Akki: Are you mad at me because of what happened at lunch
  746. >Akki: Where are you Anon? I can't find you anywhere.
  747. >Akki: Anon, are you okay? Is someone messing with you again?
  748. >Akki: Please text me back, Anon. I'm worried about you.
  749. >it just keeps going on and on
  750. >I quickly respond back
  751. >Anon: Yeah, I'm doing fine. I got a little sidetracked and didn't see your messages, sorry. I'm not mad at you or anything, ha ha. I'm about to go to bed right now though.
  752. >there, that should be fine; I put down my phone on the table, but then it vibrated as soon as it left my hands so I picked it back up in a hurry
  753. >Akki: Can I come over?
  754.  
  755. Part X (2/7/16):
  756. >>139034
  757.  
  758. >oh crap, this is the first time a girl ever wanted to come over
  759. >Anon: Sure you can I guess. I live on 123 Easy Street. I've got the house with the rose bushes in the front, you can't miss it. I'll leave the door unlocked for you.
  760. >Akki: 123 Easy Street... we live on the same street!?
  761. >huh, that's weird; all the times I've been here, I've never seen Akki around in this neighborhood
  762. >I shrug and head up the stairs to reach the door, but before I got there...
  763. >DING DONG
  764. >whoa, that was quick
  765. >"Hold on, I'll be right there."
  766. >I twist the lock and creak open the door with a deep breath and there she was
  767. >she was dressed in long, purple pajama bottoms and a simple t-shirt with a billiard ball with a 9 on it, but instead of yellow, it was light blue
  768. >wait a second... 9 ball? There's no way she's a fan right... it's probably just a weird coincidence and she probably just likes pool or something
  769. >"Hey Aaaaanon, my eyes are up here you know?"
  770. >her slurred words broke my concentration as I realized I was staring at her chest this whole time
  771. >"Oh, ha ha! My bad! Come on in, Akki."
  772. >I open the door for her and she walked in and took a look around with a child-like curiosity
  773. >"So Akki, did you want to talk or something?"
  774. >she finishes surveying the house as I close the door behind me
  775. >"No. Not rrrrreally. Show me around will ya?"
  776. >dang it, I thought she needed something; it'll be too rude to kick her out since she just got here, but I really wanted to play some games before I went to bed
  777. >"Yeah sure."
  778. >I went through the kitchen, bathroom, and family room with her and we arrived at the stairs to head to the basement
  779. >"A-actually on second thought, I haven't cleaned up at all so we ca-"
  780. >she pushes me out on the way with a slump and makes her way down the stairs
  781. >"Whaaat are you worried about, Anon? You showed mmme everything else. Might as well show me your room too."
  782. >jeez, she's extremely pushy, isn't she? Also, she's slurring a lot for some reason. I wonder why
  783. >I head down after her to see her exuberant expression as she shuffles through my shelf stacked with various PlayStation games
  784. >"Anon! I didn't know you had so many games."
  785. >come on now, be careful with those; it took a couple of years to build myself up my library
  786. >she takes Katamari Damacy off the shelf and hands me the disk from within its case
  787. >"Oh Anon, I love this game! I want to play Aaanon, come on!"
  788. >I take the disk and insert it into the PS2, handing the controller to Akki as she plops down on the couch across from the flat screen TV
  789. >eh, I guess if she just wanted to play games I guess that's fine
  790. >I begin to head towards me room, but my hand was suddenly gripped and pulled back towards the couch
  791. >"Wwwait Anon, where are you going? I'm just about to get started!"
  792.  
  793. >she yanks me with the force that lifts me off and ground, and slamming me into my couch head first
  794. >"Ow"
  795. >I attempt to rearrange my positioning on the couch, but caught myself off balance and ended up leaning into her body
  796. >"Aw, c'mere you~"
  797. >she pulls me in closer, wrapping her right arm around my body while still holding onto the controller
  798. >wait a second... that stench; she must've been drinking! No wonder she's slurring so much.
  799. >meh, I guess oni's are known for their love of sake so I'm not really surprised, but at the same time, we're still in high school...
  800. >oh well, she does what she wants I guess
  801. >she then rests her cheek down on my head and sighs
  802. >"It's nice to be next to you, Anon. I ffffeel at ease when I'm with you. I'm sure you heard that I used to fight a lot, but now it seems like there's no need to anymore, ya know?
  803. >I rest into her warm body and watch her roll up household object in the game
  804. >man, what a comfy game
  805. >I feel myself starting to drift off a little and I start to notice she's starting to miss more and more objects overtime
  806. >her body slowly shifts her weight on me as she begins to nod off
  807. >"W-wait, Akki! You should probably go home. You're getting pretty sleepy, and I am too. We got school tomorrow after all."
  808. >she puts a finger on my lips to silence me
  809. >"It's okay, Anon. It doesn't matter. I live like 5 houses down anyways."
  810. >she then takes a blanket that was placed next to the arm of the couch and wraps both of us underneath the fabric and smiles at me
  811. >"Here, warm enough for you?"
  812. >I nodded silently and leaned into her body as she struggles to play the game
  813. >I guess I'll close my eyes a little bit
  814. >...
  815. >!
  816. >uh-oh, I turn my head to look at a nearby clock to see that it is 2:13 AM
  817. >crap, how long have I been asleep, I should go back to my r-
  818. >I attempt to move my body, but I am held down tightly by a certain red oni
  819. >both of her arms embrace me like a giant teddy bear as her leg crosses intersects mine as I am pushed up against the couch horizontally with her body being on the outer side
  820. >her face, only a few inches from mine, is soft, and delicate and she breathes in and out as she continues to sleep regardless
  821. >I try to slip out of her grip by moving slowly downwards, but her interjected leg keeps me from continuing
  822. >"mmf"
  823. >the grip tightens around my body as Akki sinks deeper into sleep
  824. >guess there's no fighting it, eh?
  825. >I sink deeper into her warm body and embrace the comfort she provides
  826. >I lean forward and plant a kiss on her cheek
  827. >slowly, but surely, I drifted off to sleep again
  828.  
  829. Part XI (2/9/15):
  830. >>139766
  831.  
  832. >"Anon, get up you fool!"
  833. >huh?
  834. >"Anon! Come on, we're gonna be late!"
  835. >...what?
  836. >I slowly open my eyes to see Akki shaking me violently
  837. >"Whoa, what's going on..? Oh yeah that's right."
  838. >jeez, I still can't believe she stayed over last night; at least I got to get comfy
  839. >I look over at the clock in the room and holy shit! It's 20 minutes past the time my alarm is usually set!
  840. >oh shit, gotta get moving
  841. >I stand up from the couch, but I start to shake and my bones start popping from the weird positioning on the couch
  842. >I take some steps towards my room and notice my whole body hurts all over
  843. >my legs are shaking violently with each step and my arms feel heavy and sluggish
  844. >I reach out to open the door and shocks are sent through my arm from extending it
  845. >wow, I must have overdid it yesterday, huh
  846. >I quickly throw on some jeans and a t-shirt and look over to see Akki coming inside the room, realizing that I didn't shut the door
  847. >"W-what are you doing?"
  848. >she scratches her head with her bedridden hair
  849. >"My house is in the opposite direction of the school, and I'll be too late if I go back now, so I'm gonna need some clothes to wear today..."
  850. >[spoiler]wat.jpg[/spoiler]
  851. >"W-whatever. Just get something out of my closet-"
  852. >she starts digging through my dirty laundry basket placed at the foot of my bed and pulled out a pair of grey sweat pants
  853. >"Okay, this'll do just fine~. I'll just wear my Cirino shirt since I already have it on."
  854. >she starts taking off her pajama bottoms and throwing it in my dirty laundry basket, revealing her black panties temporarily
  855. >"Jeez Akki. You could at least go in the living room to change you know?"
  856. >she snickers mischievously as she pulls up my sweat pants
  857. >"What are you so afraid of Anon..? Afraid of a little skin, huh?"
  858. >oh man, it's morning and I'm already starting to sweat
  859. >"Agh, whatever. I gotta brush my teeth and take a piss really quick and we can leave."
  860. >I make my way upstairs with my backpack over my shoulders and made sure to close the door behind me this time
  861. >phew, finally a little privacy... or so I thought
  862.  
  863. >as I flush my piss down the toilet, I make my way to the sink to start brushing my teeth, but the knocks on the door startled me
  864. >"Hey Anon. I gotta take a piss too you know. Come on, hurry up!"
  865. >jeez, I just got in here; I started to brush more quickly but the door opened up behind me
  866. >fuck me, I left it unlocked
  867. >she came barging in and took and sat on the toilet seat and started to pull the sweat pants down
  868. >"Akki please-"
  869. >the sounds of the liquid leaving her sent a shiver down my spine as I turn the other direction to finish brushing
  870. >when she finished I spit out the grime from my mouth and gargled and all that good stuff, but Akki suddenly grabbed the toothbrush from my hand and started applying toothpaste to it
  871. >"Wait, what are you doing?"
  872. >"What does it look like I'm doing? I'm about to brush my teeth. I left my toothbrush at home so yours will have to do for now."
  873. >come on man, at least wash it off first-
  874. >she insert my brush into her mouth and starts brushing as if it was her own making me gag slightly
  875. >"Girl... Akki, I've never met anyone like you jeez. Come on, we gotta go."
  876. >she finishes her brushing with a spit down the sink and a quick glance at me to view my reaction
  877. >"Heh, it's almost like we're married, huh Anon?"
  878. >"Y-yeah, w-whatever Akki"
  879. >I rush out of the front door to avoid anymore of my objects to get "contaminated" by her
  880. >she soon came after and followed closely behind me as we start running towards the school
  881.  
  882. >we finally arrive at the school 5 minutes before class starts
  883. >my legs start wobbling around and my lungs feeling like they are about to implode from the constant sprinting
  884. >"Hah, hah, hah... we made it"
  885. >the last bit of students are scurrying to make it inside and I look over to Akki who put her fist out at me
  886. >I reciprocated and our fist bump was complete
  887. >today is going to be a good day; I can feel it!
  888. >"Alright Anon, my class is a little further down than were yours is. I'll come pick you up so we can walk to gym together again"
  889. >she quickly grabs me by the shoulders and pulls me into for a quick peck on the lips
  890. >"I had fun last night! We should do it again soon. See you later!"
  891. >she ran off down the halls to her class and I begin to approach mine
  892. >I entered the room and although all the seats were filled, I was still here on time
  893. >I make my way to my seat and sigh in relief
  894. >time for day 3
  895.  
  896. Part XII (2/12/16):
  897. >>140840
  898.  
  899. >I slouched in my chair and pull out my notebook out of my bag in preparation for class
  900. >the bell rang, starting the first period class
  901. >all that chaos in the morning turned out alright I guess
  902. >"...Good morning, Anon."
  903. >huh, who was that?
  904. >I look over to see Lily looking at me with her blue eyes as if she needed something
  905. >"Oh hey, Lily. What's going on?"
  906. >I've been pretty distracted lately so I forgot about Lily completely even though she's the one that got me into this mess
  907. >"Nothing really, Anon. So... how's it going with Akki? "
  908. >whoa, that question came out of nowhere
  909. >"Uh, it's been good, I think."
  910. >I go back to my notebook and start writing the notes that Mr. Wright was putting on the board
  911. >5 minutes passed, and I feel a tug on my shirt and a whisper
  912. >"So Anon, what do you think of her?"
  913. >she's still on that?
  914. >"She uh... She's alright. Being around her is nice I guess."
  915. >I got back to my notes, but she tugs once again but more firmly
  916. >"So uhh Anon, have you uh... done it yet or..?
  917. >my patience is running out
  918. >"WHAT DO YOU WANT? JEEZ!"
  919. >...
  920. >the whole class looks back at me, as well as Mr. Wright who stops writing and raises an eyebrow at me
  921. >"Anon, come see me after class."
  922. >fuck
  923. >Lily looked at me with solemn eyes and her fuzzy ears drooped down
  924. >"I'm so sorry, Anon. I didn't mean to. It seems like every time we talk you always get into some sort of trouble."
  925. >yeah, no shit
  926. >"Why do you want to hear so much about me and Akki?"
  927. >she shifts around a bit showing that she her discomfort
  928. >"Well... I'm a little concerned. She is an oni after all. A demon. I think you should be more careful."
  929. >something about her statement threw me off a little
  930. >"A demon..? I know she's a little pushy but still..."
  931. >she gave me a sharp look that seemed to cut through into my soul
  932. >"You don't seem to understand, Anon. I've seen some indescribable things that would change your outlook of her. You are better off without her."
  933. >what?
  934. >where is this coming from? I don't understand at all; why would she say something like that?
  935. >"Why Lily? I don't understand."
  936. >"If you continue to be with her, you will see soon enough."
  937. >the bell rings, cutting our conversation short with questions swirling around in my head
  938. >Lily gets up and leaves the room as I made my way to Mr. Wright to receive my stern lecture
  939.  
  940. >I wait next to Mr. Wright at the front of the room as the last bit of students sneered as they left the room to give us a bit of privacy
  941. >he finishes erasing his notes on the board as he begins to talk
  942. >"You know why I called you here, right?"
  943. >I stand up straight and give him my full attention to hopefully lessen the punishment
  944. >"Yes sir."
  945. >he looks back at me with a warm smile as his bushy, grey mustache slightly perking up along the corners of his mouth
  946. >"Make sure it doesn't happen again. By the way, make sure to get some proper gloves and shoes for Saturday"
  947. >what's he on about?
  948. >"Gloves and shoes? What do you mean? There isn't any school on Saturday... is there?
  949. >he gives a hearty laugh and pats my shoulder
  950. >"You'll know soon enough. I'll see you later, Anon. I wouldn't want you to be late to your next class, ha ha."
  951. >"See you later, Mr. Wright!"
  952. >I left the class feeling a wave of relief, knowing that I wasn't didn't have to face a detention or something
  953. >I look around to see if Akki was here yet, but I guess she's running a little late
  954. >suddenly I was tugged by the loop on the top of my backpack and landed flat on my back with my eyes closed
  955. >slowly opening my eyes, revealed a wretched tusk figure; my tormentor from these past 3 days
  956. >"How's it going, Anon? I was very lonely during lunch yesterday. Hope you can make that up to me during lunch today~"
  957. >she picked up my already sore body and put me on my feet while grabbing the collar of my shirt, leaning in to whisper into my ear
  958. >"You think you can just ignore me? You must think I'm some sort of pushover, huh?"
  959. >she quickly punches me in the stomach to knock the air out of me, but then pulls my head back up and locks eyes with me
  960. >"You think Akki is always going to be around to protect your sorry ass?"
  961. >she knees me in my side
  962. >"You might as well just give in. You belong to me now!"
  963. >ha ha, you have to be kidding; I'm not anyone's bitch!
  964. >I contract my neck muscles and sent a wad on spit to her cheek in retaliation
  965. >the fury that built within her slowly showed in her facial expression as she pulls back to throw a punch at my face
  966. >I flinch momentarily to await the impact of her fist, but it never came
  967. >"Hey, what's going on here?"
  968. >that voice... this situation; the timing couldn't possible be any worse
  969. >I hastily spoke up to come up with some sort of excuse before things were to get ugly
  970. >"We're just... uh, messing around. You know, uh. Horseplay? Yeah, horseplay. Just students being students, ha ha."
  971. >Hilda lets go of me and wipes the spit off her cheek with her shirt and walks off in the opposite direction
  972. >"This isn't over"
  973. >she finally makes her way out of our vision and two red arms came to a hug me from behind
  974. >"Anon~ What do you mean, horseplay? You can't do that with anyone, but me!"
  975. >I look back at Akki's concerned face and take my hand and pinch her cheek
  976. >"Owowo, Anon jeez~ You can't do that with other girls, Anon."
  977. >at least she's oblivious to the bullying; I'm safe for the time being
  978. >"You're too worried Akki. Come on, let's go to class."
  979. >she links her arms with mine with a smile as we make our way to gym class
  980. >Hilda is my problem and my problem alone; if I can't overcome this alone then I cannot call myself a man
  981.  
  982. Part XIII (2/14/16):
  983. >>142062
  984.  
  985. >we make our way to gym and sit down on "her" seat
  986. >we talked a little to kill some time, but there wasn't much to talk about since we've been around each other for a while
  987. >sometimes it was just a look and a smile
  988. >I guess when it comes down to it, it's good that we can share moments like these too
  989. >the teacher blew the whistle, starting the jogging session
  990. >although my body was sore, I feel like I'm getting more used to the exercise since my stamina has been building
  991. >we sit down to stretch and it went through easily, as well as relieving a little bit of the pain from this morning
  992. >push ups, sit ups, and planks were a little more easy as well
  993. >slowly but surely, I was becoming stronger
  994. >finally recreational time came, and for today it was soccer
  995. >lots of running to build up my stamina and leg muscles
  996. >as soon as I knew it, gym was over and it was time for lunch
  997. >Akki and I finished drinking water from the fountain and she gave me smug look
  998. >"W-what are you looking at, Akki?"
  999. >"Heh~ seems like you're getting a used to the exercise. I hope you aren't thinking of leaving me for someone else or anything~"
  1000. >she gives a laugh and grabs my sweaty hand with hers and moves it to her face to have it caress her cheek
  1001. >"You are mine after all."
  1002. >I quickly pull my hand out from her grasp in embarrassment and slide it in my pocket
  1003. >"Y-yeah, lets uh get something to eat."
  1004. >I'm not sure I'll ever get used to this much affection; my heart can't take all this love so I'm not really sure how to handle it
  1005. >Akki then comes up and bear hugs me from behind, making it seem as though she's going to snap my spine
  1006. >"Anon, you know I love you right?"
  1007. >"Yeah, of course I do so loosen the grip will ya?"
  1008. >she grabs on tighter instead
  1009. >"Are you sure?"
  1010. >what's with her? Is she still worried about this morning?
  1011. >"I'm absolutely sure. Akki don't worry so much. Come on, let's go to lunch before the line gets long."
  1012. >I grab her hand for once causing her to loosen her grip and lead her out of the gym
  1013. >I looked back at her to see the embarrassed look on her face that was partially covered by her other hand
  1014. >"A-anon"
  1015. >we made our way to the lunch line without another word and got our food and made our way to the courtyard
  1016. >eating in silence for about 10 minutes, we both suddenly look at each other and started laughing
  1017. >we ARE like a couple, huh?
  1018. >I scratch my head and start clearing my throat as I can feel it drying up
  1019. >"Y-you know, Akki? I uh..."
  1020. >Akki perked up at my sudden words and gave me her full attention with a soft smile
  1021. >"I uh... I think I want to go out with you, maybe..."
  1022. >oh boy, I said it
  1023. >my heart beating rapidly as I feel a bit lightheaded, but as I look at Akki, I am shoved into the grass without even realizing
  1024. >she climbs on top of me slowly with her leg placed between mine and her hand on my shoulder to prevent me from getting up
  1025. >"A-anon, are you serious? I'm not dreaming am I?"
  1026. >I take my free hand and finger through her short hair while caressing her cheek
  1027. >"Yeah, I'm serious. At first I thought that you would torment me, but somehow, being with you alleviates all my worries. I've really come to lik-"
  1028. >she cut me off with a kiss that pushed my head straight in the grass causing me to suffocate
  1029. >the kiss seemed to last for hours until she finally raised her head from my face as I gasp for air and leaned back down to continue
  1030. >the softness of her lips entranced me as the lack of oxygen combined with the her touch caused me to enter a trance filled with bliss
  1031. >she finally pulled away when she realized that I was turning blue and giggled
  1032. >"Sorry, about that A-anon. I couldn't control myself. I guess we're official now."
  1033. >yep
  1034.  
  1035. Part XIV (2/16/16):
  1036. >>143076
  1037.  
  1038. >it was the end of lunch and Akki and I finally got up from our spots in the grass
  1039. >she looks at me with a quiet giggle
  1040. >"Want to walk home together?"
  1041. >"Sure, that would be nice"
  1042. >I waved to her as she went to her next class with a slight skip in her step
  1043. >doing the same, I found the rest of the day to be boring, but I waited in anticipation for school to end
  1044. >Akki met me out side of the front entrance of the school with both hands behind her back and a toothy grin once she saw me
  1045. >I looked around to see if Hilda was here, but oddly enough after our quarrel from this morning, she was nowhere to be found
  1046. >I was getting a little paranoid; maybe she was up to something?
  1047. >the warmth of Akki's body that embraced me suddenly snapped me out of my train of thought
  1048. >that's right... even if she was here, she wouldn't be able to do anything because of Akki's presence
  1049. >"Jeez~ Anon, are you even listening to me?"
  1050. >what?
  1051. >"Huh, did you say something? Sorry, I wasn't paying attention, ha ha."
  1052. >she started to pout as her eyes began to water slightly
  1053. >"Anon, are you hiding something from me? It seems like you aren't opening up to me."
  1054. >I waved her comment off
  1055. >"No, don't worry. I was just thinking that it was a long day today. Come on, let's go home."
  1056. >I take her hand and lead her away from the school until she picked up her pace and walked along beside me with a gentle grip on my hand
  1057. >it was a peaceful walk that consisted of talking about the other classes we had until she brought up the games that she liked to play
  1058. >"Anon, I know that Katamari Damacy is really fun, but next time I come over, we should play something together where we both can play."
  1059. >"Like what? I've got a bunch that we can play. It's up to you since I've played most of them at least a little bit."
  1060. >she ponders for a little bit
  1061. >"Hmm... well, want to go play something when we get to your house?"
  1062. >"Sorry Akki, not today. I've got something I have to do today."
  1063. >that's right! Today is Wednesday, so it'll be my first proper day to go train at the boxing gym
  1064. >Akki looked disappointed, but she soon came to understand
  1065. >"Oh that's too bad. What were you going to do today?"
  1066. >hmm, I'm not sure if I can tell her about the boxing since it'll lead to more questions and eventually narrow down to Hilda
  1067. >"I uh... Got plans with friends."
  1068. >she looked genuinely shocked at my response
  1069. >"But Anon, I didn't know you had any friends..."
  1070. >ouch... well I guess that's true but to have it reinforced stings a little
  1071. >"Y-yeah, I made some in my other boring classes."
  1072. >"Oh, I see. Well, good for you Anon! I'm happy for you!"
  1073. >she took the bait easily, but I don't feel so good about it
  1074. >I feel like I've been lying too her too much, but I figure that it's better than having her flip out if she were to know the truth
  1075. >"Hopefully, you'll introduce them to me sometime!"
  1076. >"Y-yeah, one day."
  1077. >we finally made it to my house
  1078. >pulling my keys out of my pocket, I look at Akki's face to see her cheerful smile beaming at me
  1079. >she attempts to lightly punch me in the shoulder, but it hurts anyways
  1080. >"I hope you have fun, Anon! I hope you enjoy yourself. Tell me how it goes later, okay?"
  1081. >she brings me in for a quick but tight hug followed by a smooch and waves me goodbye as she walks down the street to her house
  1082.  
  1083. >I open my door and make my way to my room to get changed
  1084. >I put on some blue shorts and a grey t-shirt and took out some old tennis shoes that seemed a little worn down
  1085. >"Better than nothing, I guess."
  1086. >I make my way to the window and scouted the area to see if Akki wasn't around as a precaution and headed out once I saw that everything was clear
  1087. >but then I wondered, is this really okay?
  1088. >it feels wrong to do this behind her back, but I don't really have a choice now, do I?
  1089. >if I didn't do this, I would always be fearful of Hilda and get pushed around for the rest of high school
  1090. >my doubts faded, but the weight of my lies still felt heavy
  1091. >I finally made my way to the boxing gym and looked around for Mr. Smith
  1092. >he wasn't in the main area, so I checked his office and saw him filling out some paperwork
  1093. >"Uh hey, Mr. Smith. It's me, Anon. I'm here to start my training."
  1094. >slowly looking up, he gave me a stern look that threw me off
  1095. >"Oh it's you, boy. Hmm, well to begin, get started jumping rope. Don't stop until I finish looking through the paperwork, got that?
  1096. >I took a look and saw that the stack of pages was stacked about a foot above his desk; doesn't look like too much
  1097. >"Yes sir! Seems simple enough."
  1098. >he gets back to his signing without another word as I make my way back to the main area
  1099. >I take a jump rope that was placed in the corner of the gym and unraveled in and started going at it
  1100. >huh, this isn't too bad
  1101. >it's just jump rope, so this shouldn't be much of a problem right
  1102. >...
  1103. >10 minutes pass and my legs are killing me
  1104. >the rotations of my wrist are causing my arms to become slightly numb yet painful
  1105. >how much longer is this going to last?
  1106. >I keep going regardless of the pain, closing my eyes to think about something more pleasant
  1107. >Akki... yes
  1108. >her sweet smile and soft touch propels me to continue
  1109. >...
  1110. >ahh, the burn; it's been about 20 minutes now and I'm shaking now
  1111. >I eventually just stopped because I wasn't sure my body could handle anymore
  1112. >I take my shirt and pull it rapidly to get some air onto my torso that's soaked in my sweat as I gasp for air
  1113. >I finally take a look at the office to see, Mr. Smith standing in the doorway
  1114. >"Not bad, Anon. 20 minutes for a first timer. I'm pretty impressed you kept up for so long. Take a short break, you earned it."
  1115. >he looks down at my shoes,at my hands, then back up at my face
  1116. >"Before we continue, I'm gonna need you to buy some new shoes and also some wraps and gloves for practice cause you might injure yourself."
  1117. >gloves and shoes? Where have I heard that before?
  1118. >he continues with a slight cough
  1119. >"Well, I recommend that you go to Mick's Sporting Goods to get your equipment since my grand daughter works there and if you tell her that you know me, you might get a discount, I don't know ha ha."
  1120. >what a nice old man
  1121. >"Thanks, I'll keep that in mind."
  1122. >he then get's me to do various stretches and takes me to lift some weights before we get to the actual punching
  1123. >eventually, it was late in the evening so I finally left the boxing gym feeling a sense of accomplishment
  1124.  
  1125. Part XV (2/18/16):
  1126. >>143749
  1127.  
  1128. >it was going to get pretty dark out, but I decided that I was going to stop by Mick's Sporting Goods before heading home
  1129. >the store was located in a shopping plaza that was several of miles from my house, so I decided to take the bus there since I didn't have a car yet
  1130. >I waited on one of the benches and sent a text to Akki telling her how my training when
  1131. >Anon: I just got out of the boxing gym, and I'm on my way to pick up some equipment
  1132. >...wait a second, I can't send this
  1133. >I deleted the message and rewrote it as my chest sank
  1134. >Anon: I had a great time with my friends. We played some games and stuff, but we went out to the store to buy something for one of them so I'm coming home a little late."
  1135. >hmm, sounds convincing enough... and SEND
  1136. >I slid the phone in my pocket, but instantly vibrated in my pants
  1137. >heh, she sure does respond fast
  1138. >Akki: I'm glad you had fun, Anon! Don't come home too late now, we still have school tomorrow! Text me when you get back. Love you!"
  1139. >if it wasn't for the lie, I'd feel really good right now; oh well, gotta do what I gotta do
  1140. >the bus pulls up and I hop on, paying my fare and taking a seat in the back and put my earbuds in and listened to some tunes
  1141. >it wasn't long before I made it to my stop and left the bus to walk to the store
  1142. >the sun has completely disappeared from my view and the lights in the parking lot started coming on when I walked past the 5 or so parked cars
  1143. >I made my way inside the store and scanned the place to find the boxing area since I don't want to waste to much time
  1144. >there weren't that many people in the store either since it's a bit late, so I felt a little pressure to hurry up cause I'm sure they might be closing soon
  1145. >I finally found the boxing stuff; it was somewhere near the back of the store next to the shoes
  1146. >very convenient for me cause I easily picked up a pair a standard red boxing gloves along with some tape, put it in my hand basket, and make my way to the tennis shoes
  1147. >I scanned the shelf to find what I wanted but I felt a tap on my shoulder
  1148. >"Can I help you find anything today..? Wait a second. Anon, is that you?"
  1149. >the voice startled me because it was the last voice that I wanted to hear, especially at this time of the day
  1150. >I turned to see Hilda right besides me, which made me jump and knock a couple of the shoe boxes off the shelf
  1151. >"Heh, well I'm about as shocked as you are. Luckily for you, I can't do anything to do or I'll get fired ha ha."
  1152. >she leaned down to pick up the boxes that I dropped
  1153. >"W-wait, I can get them since I knocked them over..."
  1154. >I stooped down to help, but she pushed me away with a glare that got me to stand back up
  1155. >"Don't worry about it Anon. This is my job after all. What are you in here for anyway? I didn't know that you were the sporty type."
  1156. >I quickly put the basket behind my back to hide its contents
  1157. >"Y-you know... just getting some tennis shoes."
  1158. >she gave me a smug grin and looked around to make sure if any one else was watching, and unluckily, there wasn't
  1159. >she twisted my arm and jolted it behind my back and took the basket in one swift motion
  1160. >"Boxing gloves and tape..? Why would you buy this, hmm~?"
  1161. >quick Anon, think, think!
  1162. >"Uh, it's for my friend who likes that sort of stuff a lot."
  1163. >she didn't quite catch the bait as I thought she would but she seemed interested anyways
  1164. >"So Anon, tell me about this friend of yours."
  1165. >"H-he's a muscle head type of guy who goes to the gym a lot. He... he doesn't go to our school though but I've known him for a while."
  1166. >she shoved the basket back into my hands with a strong force that caught me off guard
  1167. >"Yeah whatever Anon. Like I believe any of your make believe friends. You got some gloves cause you recently started boxing, right? My grandpa told me all about you."
  1168. >grandpa?
  1169.  
  1170. >the slow realization kicked in... Akki is Mr. Smith's granddaughter? What luck is this?
  1171. >"You look surprised, Anon. I'd be too if I was in your situation. Why'd you start anyways? To get a workout or maybe... to beat me up?"
  1172. >she turns around with a giggle as the blood rushes to my face in embarrassment
  1173. >"How simpleminded, ha ha! I've also heard something peculiar today too~ You would never guess."
  1174. >I don't even want to hear anymore at this point; I feel like I've been broken down enough
  1175. >"I saw Akki in the hall earlier today, and guess what she told me?"
  1176. >oh god no
  1177. >"She told me that you two started dating! How rich!"
  1178. >I guess it was only time until she found out, but it still feels me with uneasiness with what she might do
  1179. >"Anon, I've been doing some thinking... and I want to give you an offer."
  1180. >she looked around to see if anyone was watching, but nope
  1181. >she took her light green arm and slowly but surely pushed me against the shelf and got close enough to my face that I could feel her breath
  1182. >"How about you leave Akki and date me instead?"
  1183. >excuse me?
  1184. >"What better way to get back at her than to steal the guy she loves from her? You're a pretty decent looking guy so I'm not afraid of being around you or anything like that."
  1185. >what the hell is going on? This is happening too suddenly
  1186. >"And don't worry. I won't beat on you anymore when we're together. We could start over, it's up to you."
  1187. >I looked at her face to confirm her words, and they seem to be genuine; however, I could also feel the anger welling up within me like a kettle boiling water
  1188. >I slapped her hand away in frustration and pushed her away promptly to regain control of the situation
  1189. >"Hilda, you must be out of your mind! You really think I'd do something like that! Fuck off with your bullshit!"
  1190. >my voice echoed throughout the store since it was quiet, which probably caused all the employees to hear
  1191. >Hilda took a couple of steps away from me and sighed deeply
  1192. >"Tsk tsk, Anon. At least I gave you options, but I guess we gotta do this the hard way then since you got a couple of screws loose."
  1193. >she pulled a box of sneakers off the shelf that was surprisingly my size and handed it to me
  1194. >"Here go sit over on that bench and try these on. They should be comfortable."
  1195. >I did exactly as she said and the shoes were a perfect fit; fits snugly around my feet with a little breathing room and it was a basic grey color so I can wear it without standing out much
  1196. >"Fit alright, Anon?"
  1197. >I nodded at her, which caused her to grin in a sweet matter that threw me through a loop
  1198. >it was my first time seeing an expression on her face that didn't evoke fear; if anything, it was sort of cute in a way
  1199. >now that I notice, although she's an orc, she isn't really ugly like you'd think an orc would be
  1200. >her light green skin was fair and her jet black hair covered her whole head and came down to mid neck level with a defined straightness
  1201. >I realized that I was staring at her and started to feel a bit confused because I never looked at her like this before since she'd usually torment me at school, but now it's more peaceful
  1202. >"Hilda, why are you so violent? I think if you were a little more kind, dare I'd say, but I think you'd be really cute."
  1203. >she was stunned by my comment and looked away sheepishly
  1204. >"Anon... you're pretty bold for someone with a girlfriend."
  1205. >oh shit, what am I doing; why am I getting wrapped up in her pace when I already have Akki
  1206. >"Y-yeah, you're right. Well I really like these shoes so I think I'm gonna buy them. Mr. Smith said you could give me a discount... so um-"
  1207. >she pinched the bridge of her nose and waved me to follow her to the front of the store
  1208. >she rung me up and got like 20% off of everything, which was nice
  1209. >I was about to leave the store but her voice stopped me dead in my tracks
  1210. >"Don't forget what we talked about, Anon. You better be prepared for tomorrow!"
  1211. >she cracks her knuckles and I walk out, which send a shiver up my spine as I left
  1212. >as I waited for the bus to take me back home, Hilda's words looped in my head, which gave me an unsettling feeling I couldn't shake off
  1213. >man, what type of situation is this
  1214. >the bus arrived and I got home at like 9 PM, so I quickly showered then slid under the covers and stared up at the ceiling and thought of the events that occurred tonight
  1215. >I finally passed out asleep, but forgot one thing
  1216. >I didn't text Akki when I got back
  1217.  
  1218. Part XVI (3/1/16):
  1219. >>144750
  1220.  
  1221. >BANG BANG BANG BANG
  1222. >"zzz... what?"
  1223. >BANG BANG BANG BANG
  1224. >oh shit! What's all that noise?
  1225. >I look over at the alarm clock in my room, but it's about an hour earlier than it's supposed to go off
  1226. >what gives?
  1227. >I walk up the stairs as the banging gets louder with each step
  1228. >it seems like the noise is coming from the door
  1229. >I peer through the peephole to see Akki in her a thin jacket and shorts, looking around nervously muttering to herself as she turns away from the door
  1230. >"He's probably not here. Maybe I should go back home..?
  1231. >at that moment, I cracked the door open and tapped her shoulder to get her attention
  1232. >"Akki, what are you doing here? You're an hour early and probably disturbing the neighbors with that loud knock of yours"
  1233. >her face brightens up and she lunges at me with a hug that lifted me off of the ground, twirling both of us around with a spin
  1234. >"woah, woah, easy there! What's up?"
  1235. >she finally puts me back on the ground lightly with a laugh and then yawns deeply
  1236. >"I-It's nothing. I just wanted to see you that's all. I couldn't sleep last night, ha ha!"
  1237. >I could see the heavy bags under her eyes showing that she was speaking the truth
  1238. >"If that's the case, go back home! An hour worth of sleep is better than nothing."
  1239. >she slaps me on my back and makes her way into the house without restraint
  1240. >"It's too late for that now, Anon. Might as well kill some time before school starts."
  1241. >"Eh, well what do you want to do?"
  1242. >she scratched her head then shrugged at me
  1243. >"You hungry?"
  1244. >"Hmm, yeah I guess. I could get you a bowl of cereal or something if you want"
  1245. >she sluggishly pushes me towards the basement stairs with a wobble
  1246. >"Nah Anon. Let's go out somewhere to eat since we got a lot of time. Go get ready, I'll wait for you up here."
  1247. >"Oh okay. That sounds good."
  1248. >I made my way down the stairs and went to my room and threw on a t-shirt and jeans and my backpack then headed upstairs to brush my teeth quickly
  1249. >Akki was leaning up against the door with a spaced out look as I finished getting ready
  1250. >I waved my hand in front of her face, but it took her a good 3 seconds to realize that she was out of it
  1251. >"Oh... heh, sorry about that Anon. Let's go!"
  1252. >she opens the door to begin heading out, but I grab her unoccupied hand and squeezed it out of concern
  1253. >"Hey Akki. Are you doing alright? You don't look so good... maybe you should have someone call in sick for you?"
  1254. >she turns around with a joyful expression and then tenderly brings me in for another hug while resting her cheek on the top of my head
  1255. >"Anon... you're such a sweet guy. I shouldn't have been so worried last night. There's a place nearby that I really like that you might like too!"
  1256. >she pulls back from the hug and takes my hand and leads me away from my house after I lock the front door
  1257. >we make our way to a side street that is about a 15 minute walk from my house
  1258.  
  1259. >>152510
  1260. >she lead me to a building that had an old-fashioned look to it
  1261. >the outside of the place was occupied by about several rocking chairs but about a few elderly people were sitting down and reading their books
  1262. >we entered the place to find that the first section was filled with merchandise like teas, candies, and various pancake mixes
  1263. >the interior of the place had wood paneling and each step we took creaked as if we were on an old ship
  1264. >a waiter was adjacent to the other part of the building that was filled with the tables, so we followed him and were seated across from each other next to a window that gave us the view of passerby cars
  1265. >Akki opens up her menu and looks at me over the booklet
  1266. >"Have you ever been here before, Anon?"
  1267. >I shook my head and looked through the menu to find various meals available
  1268. >buttermilk pancakes with fruit toppings, double meat breakfast, sunrise sampler... it all rumbles my stomach thinking about it
  1269. >the waiter comes to ask us for what we want to drink; I get some orange juice for that pulpy goodness and Akki gets a coffee to try and wake herself up
  1270. >Akki suddenly starts giggling to herself as she sips up the coffee
  1271. >"W-what's so funny? Is something on my face or something?"
  1272. >she stops with a pleased sigh
  1273. >"When I think about it... this is technically our first date, ha ha!"
  1274. >heh
  1275. >"I guess you're right. It's nice to spend time with you like this outside of school. It's a really good stress reliever!"
  1276. >"Stress reliever..? You feeling stressed out, Anon? Something going on that I don't know about?"
  1277. >huh..?oh shit!
  1278. >"Nah, everything's fine. I'm just speaking generally like homework and stuff. Yeah, just general stuff, ha ha!"
  1279. >man, I better be careful not to let anything else slip out of my stupid mouth
  1280. >Akki looks at me questionably then just shrugs it off
  1281. >"Well Anon, if you need help with your homework, we can do it together you know? I know I mess around with you and stuff, but I don't want your grades to suffer because of me or anything."
  1282. >"No no, don't worry Akki, I'm doing alright with that sort of stuff. It's nice of you to offer though."
  1283. >the waiter walks up to us to take our order; I ordered the double meat breakfast for the protein and Akki ordered some blueberry pancakes
  1284. >while we waited for our order, we messed around with the triangle peg game at the table to kill some time
  1285. >Akki was able to figure out the puzzle right when our food arrived
  1286. >the aroma of the food made my mouth fill up with saliva and I take a bite out of the hash browns I got
  1287. >robust with flavor, yet simple in design; the party potato, egg, and bacon mixes into my mouth creating the ultimate comfort
  1288. >Akki ate her syrup coated pancakes in no time as well
  1289. >when we finished, I left a couple of bucks on the table for tip and we got up to go pay the bill at the shop in the front
  1290. >Akki's cheeks puff out as she makes a pouty expression
  1291. >"Anon, you paid the tip, so I can handle the bill. I suggested that we come here so it's only fair that I pay for both of us!"
  1292. >man, I never would've imagined having this conversation in my life before coming to school here
  1293. >"Look Akki... I'll pay for it. I mean, I'm the guy afterall-."
  1294. >she walked up and took out her credit card and paid for it in full with a smug smile
  1295. >"Anon, it's alright, I got it this time, but you owe me. Next time you can invite me to somewhere you like, okay~? Promise me?"
  1296. >hmm... clever girl
  1297. >"I promise, but I'll pay next time, you hear me?"
  1298. >she nods and grabs me hand as we exit the restaurant and make our way to the school with filled stomachs

  1304.  
  1305. >Akki and I made it to the school about 10 minutes early, which was surprising since I thought we would be have to rush after we finished eating, but that wasn't the case
  1306. >we stopped in front of my first class and hugged, but Akki slumped into me, pressing her whole weight against me as if she was going to pass out
  1307. >I attempt to create a little distance with my arms to look her in the eyes, which were half open and with a red tint, making her appear even more demon-like
  1308. >"Akki, come on! You have to go to class."
  1309. >I shake her a little to get her out of her trance
  1310. >she wakes up a little and creates a little space between us and stretches out her arms with a deep yawn
  1311. >"My bad, Anon. I'll see you in gym! Don't go sleeping in class now~"
  1312. >the irony is rich
  1313. >Akki walks off to her next class as I enter the door to mine and make my way towards my seat in the back next to Lily
  1314. >I waved at her, but she looked away with a "hmph"
  1315. >did I do something? meh, whatever
  1316. >I shrugged it off took a seat while taking out my notebook and calculator
  1317. >Mr. Wright wasn't here yet since Akki and I arrived pretty early so there was a lot of time to kill
  1318. >I took out my phone and put the earbuds in my ear and cycled through playlists to find the Anime Mashups playlist and went to town
  1319. >I put my head on my desk with my arms as a cushion as my eyes slowly close to enjoy the tunes, but was abruptly shaken
  1320. >taking one earbud out, I turn my head over to see Lily's angry face
  1321. >"Anon! You didn't listen to a single thing I said, did you?"
  1322. >"What are you talking about?"
  1323. >she took her hoof and stepped right on my foot, almost crushing the bone causing me to yelp and sit straight up with my unoccupied earbud dangling
  1324. >"Hmph! It's not like I care about your safety or anything..! By the way, what are you listening to?"
  1325. >I hold my pulsing foot in my hand and try to massage it with the other
  1326. >"J-just some music, jeez! What's your problem anyways?"
  1327. >she quickly takes the dangling earbud and places it in her ear
  1328. >...
  1329. >"You listen to this type of music, Anon?"
  1330. >"Yeah sometimes. You probably think I'm weird for liking this stuff, right? Ha ha!"
  1331. >she takes the earbud out of her ear and places it straight into mine with a squish that sends a shiver through my body
  1332. >"Not my cup of tea, but I don't necessarily think any different of you. If anything, it makes me worry about your safety."
  1333. >I took out both earbuds and paused my music to give her my full attention
  1334. >"What are you implying, Lily?"
  1335. >she shook her head and sighed
  1336. >"Well, oni's are pretty powerful naturally, so if Akki were to make a mistake, your life could be in danger and a geeky, loner like you might..."
  1337. >at that moment, I couldn't take this insensible conversation anymore
  1338. >"Lily, I trust my girlfriend, okay? I don't worry about those things because she wouldn't do that to me intentionally, and if something were to happen, I wouldn't hold it against her."
  1339. >she looked at me wide-eyed but decided not to argue any further
  1340. >"Don't say I didn't warn you."
  1341. >finally, Mr. Wright came in and class started briefly after and went by quickly
  1342. >I left the class to be greeted by my orc tormentor who waved me as an indication to follow her
  1343. >I looked around but Akki was nowhere to be found, and I realized my hand was being pulled as Hilda starts to drag me off towards the courtyard
  1344. >where are you Akki?

  1346. Part XVIII (3/23/2016):
  1347. >>159173
  1348.  
  1349. >Hilda pulled me towards the doors leading to the courtyard, but I had a sudden realization of what was going to happen
  1350. >am I about to get my head beat in today?
  1351. >man... I've only trained at the gym a couple of times; there's no way that I'm ready to face against her now
  1352. >I yank my arm away from her out of pure terror, but her hand remains attached to mine as if they were super glued together
  1353. >Hilda stops in her tracks and turns her head to face me only to show a cheeky grin before continuing her motion towards the courtyard
  1354. >I guess there's no stopping it then
  1355. >doing anything else would make a scene, and thankfully the courtyard is vacant in the morning so there won't be too many people to see what's going on...
  1356. >I guess that means no one will hear me if I cry out for help either; welp, hopefully I'll come out of this without too much trouble
  1357. >she pushes the door open and brings me along towards the grassy area, and finally stops at a nearby tree that Akki and I sit under during lunch
  1358. >finally releasing my hand, Hilda takes a couple of steps away from me, then does a 180 to face me
  1359. >I enclose my fists and raised them calmly with my legs shoulder width apart
  1360. >Hilda looked at me questionably then chuckled and put her guard up as well, emulating my style
  1361. >we stare each other down, anticipating who would be first to make the first move
  1362. >...
  1363. >I took a quick step forward and threw a jab with left hand towards her face, but she tilts her head to swiftly dodge it
  1364. >shaken by her evasiveness, I continuously throw jabs at her face that she easily weaved herself from impact
  1365. >hmm I've got to change things up to throw her off guard
  1366. >after about 15 or so jabs, I took my right arm and hooked her right in the chin with a loud POP
  1367. >her head jutted to the left from my blow as I take my other arm to follow it up with a straight punch towards her nose
  1368. >she quickly realized that I hit her and turned her head, so my first made contact with her cheek instead
  1369. >the blow from my left hand seemed not to faze her due to the neck spin as well as my lack of training, which minimized it's overall effectiveness
  1370. >she quickly countered with a swift jab to my stomach, which made me drop my chin in order for her to combo into an uppercut with her right hand
  1371. >I was lifted off of the ground briefly and landed on my back with a loud thud in the grass
  1372. >my body was frozen as the pain from her punches finally settle in with a harsh stinging that rattled my bones
  1373. >her strength far succeeds mine by a long shot; there's no way I can hope to stand a chance in my current state
  1374. >by the time my body decided that I could move again, Hilda towered over me with a frenzied look on her face
  1375. >aw man, this is it
  1376. >I closed my eyes and curled up into the fetal position on my side and awaited the pain that would soon be upon me
  1377. >...
  1378. >however, that pain did not come
  1379. >I slowly opened my eyes to see Hilda's extended hand that was offered to me with a hearty laugh to accompany it
  1380.  
  1381. Part XIX (3/28/2016):
  1382. >>160481
  1383.  
  1384. >she pulls me up from the ground and smiles brightly at me
  1385. >"Anon, I see you've learned a lot. I was pretty surprised when you landed that hit on me. I can still feel it a little bit ha ha!"
  1386. >her words reached me, but didn't have any meaning since my mind was racing due to the current situation
  1387. >"You surprised me when you started throwing punches at me. I never thought you'd go for it, but you know, even though you aren't strong enough to beat me..."
  1388. >she extends her arm and places her hand on the shoulder, which made me flinch but then realize that she wasn't trying to hurt me
  1389. >"I still think it's honorable that you stood up for yourself even though the odds were against you. I think that's pretty admirable, which leads me to why I brought you here in the first place."
  1390. >oh no, where is this going?
  1391. >"Remember what we talked about at the store yesterday? I wasn't joking, Anon."
  1392. >I tried to respond, but my jaw hurt when I opened my mouth
  1393. >she started to slowly walk up to me and I began to back away from her, but my back eventually ran into the tree that Akki and I sit under during lunch
  1394. >"Um... I'm really sorry for everything I've done to you up until this point. I really mean it. I hope you can forgive me."
  1395. >gulp
  1396. >"I-I don't know. I have to think about it."
  1397. >she takes her hand off my shoulder and pulls my earlobe slightly
  1398. >"What's there to think about, Anon~?"
  1399. >she starts to feel up my cheek with the palm of her hand, making me shudder from discomfort
  1400. >"I... uh..."
  1401. >at this point, I couldn't take it anymore; I needed to leave before things got any worse
  1402. >I turn around and tried to make a break for the door back inside, but Hilda quickly tackled me to the ground from behind
  1403. >"Not so fast! I'm not done talking with you yet!:
  1404. >her arms wrapped around my torso to prevent me from breaking out of her grip, but I flailed my legs around like a fish out of water
  1405. >however, my efforts were fruitless since I quickly ran out of energy, allowing Hilda to hold me down without any resistance
  1406. >she turned me over and pressed her arms on my shoulder's into the dirt and looked me deeply into my eyes
  1407. >she then slowly lowered her head towards mine as I quickly shut my eyes to prepare for what's about to happen
  1408. >I felt a tender sensation upon my lips that seemed to last forever
  1409. >our lips would disconnect briefly but she would lean back down and position her lips so her tusks wouldn't dig into my skin but nevertheless continuing her assault while my eyes teared from the lack of air
  1410. >her hand lifted from my shoulder to my cheek as her thumbs wiped away the tears that rolled down my face
  1411. >although the physical sensation was nice, my heart twinged and the head raced at a mile a minute
  1412. >it seems like nothing has changed; I am still powerless
  1413. >I can't believe I still can't defend myself against her... Akki would be disappointed
  1414. >...
  1415. >Akki... how am I going to explain this to her?
  1416. >as soon as I thought that, the entirety of Hilda's body was lifted from my torso in a swift motion in one second and out of my vision in the next, which was then followed by a loud THUD
  1417. >I slowly rolled over and tilted my head to get a view of what happened, and saw that Hilda's body was launched about 50 feet from me
  1418. >next to me instead was a form with the warm shade of red that was more reminiscent of blood than the beautiful sunset that once reminded me of her
  1419. >her body trembled uncontrollably as the realization of the situation seemed to slowly sink in
  1420. >I looked up to see a miserable yet angry expression on her face as if she didn't know whether or not to cry or to fly into a fury; it was an ugly, horrid face that I never thought that I'd ever have to see
  1421. >the combination of her expression and the horns that protruded from her head, made my heart sink
  1422. >the Akki that I hold dear is falling apart right before me; the gentle yet playful Akki appeared more vicious and... demonic
  1423. >oh god, what have I done?

  1425. Part XX (7/5/2016):
  1426. >>163957
  1427.  
  1428. >Akki turns away from me and walks slowly towards Hilda with each step getting slightly quicker until she reached her
  1429. >without saying any words, Akki raised her fist and smashed it down onto Hilda's helpless body
  1430. >each punch made a meaty sound that echoed through the courtyard with a slight pause between each hit
  1431. >my mind was still fuzzy from all the events that's taking place, but I don't want Akki to continue this onslaught
  1432. >it was my fault after all...
  1433. >I pushed myself up off the ground and sluggishly moved towards the two with each punch sounding more like cannonballs being shot off the closer I get
  1434. >in this moment, I started to think back to all the warnings Lily had been sending my way
  1435. >"She is an oni after all. A demon. I think you should be more careful"
  1436. >"If Akki were to make a mistake, your life could be in danger"
  1437. >...
  1438. >step by step, the regret from the mistakes I've made flashed in my mind, but fills me with even more willpower to continue moving
  1439. >I finally stopped once I was behind Akki, who had yet to notice I was there
  1440. >I peek over her shoulder to check on Hilda's condition... oh man
  1441. >I've got to stop her now!
  1442. >... jeez what do I say in a situation like this
  1443. >WHACK
  1444. >another punch landed on Hilda's already unconscious, bruised body which send a shock through my body, waking me from thought
  1445. >suddenly my body moved on it's on as I embraced Akki from behind, wrapping my arms around her
  1446. >"Akki, I'm so sorry. Please stop, let's talk about it!"
  1447. >her raised fist, coated in Hilda's blood, slowly declined to her sides as her state of rage subsided
  1448. >she started to well up, and all I could hear was small whimpers and gasps for air as she slowly slumped over
  1449. >I took my arms and reached up towards her cheeks to feel the wetness from her tears that began to fall
  1450. >"I-I just wanted to get along with everyone... why did it turn out like this?"
  1451. >I opened mouth to respond but the words got caught in my throat
  1452. >"I'm so sorry, Akki"
  1453.  
  1454. >when she stopped crying, she stood up abruptly causing me to lose hold of her
  1455. >she turns to face me with a slight smile, although it was obvious she was still hurting
  1456. >"Anon, I know you wouldn't cheat on me because... I trust you."
  1457. >she looked over the side with a deep sigh before muttering again
  1458. >"I just wish that you could trust me too..."
  1459. >she words cut right through me
  1460. >"So... um,it looks like I've gotten out of control again. I'm going to go turn myself in to the teachers"
  1461. >she walks away towards the doors leading back indoors, but she stopped and turned to me again before leaving
  1462. >"Whether you trust me or not, I will always love you Anon; don't forget that"
  1463. >she heads inside as I bury my face in my hands
  1464. >damn it, I screwed up big time
  1465. >I walk towards Hilda to take another look at her, and her face was swelling and bruising as the rest of her body laid motionless
  1466. >I take a long look at her... this is what I wanted, right?
  1467. >she deserved what was coming to her, right?
  1468. >... no, not like this
  1469. >sure she's been tormenting me this whole time, but something about seeing her all messed up like this makes me feel more sorrowful than relieved
  1470. >I kneeled down next to Hilda and sighed
  1471. >"You know, all the terrible things you did to me really hurt, you know? I should be glad that you got beat up, but..."
  1472. >for some reason, I started to get teary eyed
  1473. >"I'm sure if the circumstances where different, we could've been friends"
  1474. >I turned around and saw a couple of nurses come running towards us with a stretcher
  1475. >they hastily put her on the stretcher and took her back inside where a bunch of nosy students crowded the area
  1476. >I made my way back inside as well with about a hundred stares looking at me
  1477. >"lover's quarrel, huh?"
  1478. >rumors were spreading like rapid fire already; I look down at the ground as I made my way to class, but was pulled aside by a school counselor waiting for me in the hallway
  1479. >"Anon, come with me to my office. I need you to explain everything that happened."
  1480. >oh great
  1481.  
  1482. Part XXI (7/9/2016):
  1483. >>194351
  1484.  
  1485. >I was lead into a large office by the counselor, who appeared to be a man in his mid 30s
  1486. >he sat down in his desk chair while I pulled mine out from underneath the table
  1487. >he woke the computer up from sleep and started clicking his way through until he found my student portfolio
  1488. >"So, Anon. How are you enjoying things at the school so far?"
  1489. >his voice was calm and reassuring, causing me to relax a little
  1490. >"It's been alright, I guess."
  1491. >he finally stopped and looked at me from his computer screen
  1492. >"Well, I just wanted to make sure because it looks like you skipped out on a couple of classes on your first day, so I'm wondering if anything happened."
  1493. >oh crap, that's right; I did skip didn't I?
  1494. >"Uh... well, you see... I uh"
  1495. >to be honest, I could tell him exactly what happened and get Hilda in trouble, but I had a nagging feeling that I shouldn't say anything at all
  1496. >"There was an emergency at home that I needed to take care of, so I had to leave immediately so I didn't tell the teachers or anything"
  1497. >he typed what I was saying into my portfolio on his computer
  1498. >"I see. Can you tell me what happened today? I'm just curious from your perspective since a situation like this hasn't come up in a long time."
  1499. >"I-I don't know, sorry"
  1500. >he looked at me questioningly, then let it go
  1501. >"Well Anon, you can come in whenever and talk if something is bothering you. That's what the counseling center is for anyways. Some male students who have a hard time with mamono students come here and try to resolve any issues they may have, but the first step is to open up and discuss what's on your mind. Everything you say is confidential, and we try our best to help work through any problems the student may be having."
  1502. >he handed me his business card as I started to lose interest in what he was saying
  1503. >"It's fine if you don't want to talk now, but I'll be here if you need to vent or just talk about life in general."
  1504. >he signed a late pass for me quickly and ripped it out his little booklet
  1505. >I left the office as we said our byes
  1506. >hmm... what a waste of time
  1507. >I could've used that time to check up on Akki... in fact, isn't that her?
  1508.  
  1509. >I see her with her backpack heading out of the school
  1510. >I start to run after her to catch her before she leaves, going through the doors leading outside
  1511. >finally catching up to her, I grab one of her shoulders, which gave her a jump
  1512. >"OH... Anon, it's you."
  1513. >she gave me a slight smile
  1514. >"Akki, I really need to talk to you. There's a lot of things I need to tell you."
  1515. >she put her hand up to stop me from talking, then opened up her back pack and took out a note card with a pen in hand and begins to jot something down
  1516. >she then handed it to me while putting her pen back in her backpack as I started to read it
  1517. >"Oh, is this your adr-"
  1518. >she puts her hand over my mouth and sighed
  1519. >"Let's talk later at my place, okay? I've got a lot to tell you too, but I don't want to do it here."
  1520. >she takes her hand off my mouth for a moment, but instead gives me a long, drawn out hug then places her hand on my cheek
  1521. >"I'll see you later then, Anon. Make sure you go to class, okay?"
  1522. >she then runs of quickly before I get a chance to say anything
  1523. >I look at the note card in my hand then slide it in my back pocket as I head back inside to my next class
  1524.  
  1525. Part XXII (7/11/2016):
  1526. >>195617
  1527.  
  1528. >apparently the whole incident took about an hour, so I arrived at gym class with 30 minutes of class left
  1529. >when I arrived, all the students stopped talking momentarily to face me, then resumed playing their game of badminton while starting their whispering
  1530. >eh, I'm not really feeling up to doing anything right now especially when Akki isn't here with me
  1531. >I handed my late pass to the gym teacher, but told her that I wasn't feeling well so I got to sit out for the rest of class
  1532. >from class to class I went without really paying attention to anything except for listening out for that final bell
  1533. >and when that bell rang, I sprinted out of my desk, through the hallways, and out of the school doors
  1534. >the anticipation of what I was going to say was slowly eating away at me ever since the incident, but now, I can hopefully make everything right
  1535. >I sprint down the road, weaving my way through the students in an attempt to get to my destination much faster
  1536. >"FINALLY!"
  1537. >I reach the street that I live on in about half the time it usually takes
  1538. >out of breath, I slip my hand into my pocket and pull out the note that Akki handed me earlier
  1539. >hmm...
  1540. >I pass by my house and continue down the street looking at the address plaques of each house until I finally hit the end of the cul-de-sac, which conveniently held Akki's house
  1541. >it was a decently sized house; larger than mine but had a flower bed that ranged many different colors under the front window
  1542. >but I wasn't here to smell the roses
  1543. >I make my way up the driveway and up to the front door where I took a deep breath and rang the doorbell
  1544. >...
  1545. >I ring it again just in case, but hear someone rushing up some creaky stairs
  1546. >the door finally swung open and behind it was Akki with the biggest grin on her face
  1547. >"Hey Anon, come on in. Make yourself at home!"
  1548.  
  1549. >I step inside her house and started looking around the place as I took my shoes off before stepping onto the hardwood flooring
  1550. >the family room was in immediate sight and had a modernized yet Japanese feel as soon as I saw a wall with a couple of posters with calligraphy on it
  1551. >as Akki closed the door behind me, she headed over to the kitchen area in a rush
  1552. >"Sorry Anon, I was just making a little snack don't mind me."
  1553. >I take a peek in the kitchen, to see Akki pouring an assortment of sliced fruits and berries into a large bowl
  1554. >she then picks it up the bowl and waves me over to follow her down the steps leading to the basement
  1555. >at the end of the stairs was the living room with a kotatsu in the middle of the room as well as a flat screen TV on the opposite wall with various DVDs underneath
  1556. >we kept walking down the hall until we reach Akki's room
  1557. >as I head inside, I began to admire everything about the house, but her room was pretty neat in a way that I could appreciate
  1558. >there was a bookshelf filled up with manga and anime DVDs, and on top of it laid a katana and wakizashi set
  1559. >her desk had her laptop on it, which was already open and running with her internet browser showing "Trust exercises for couples"
  1560. >Akki stepped in front of me and swiftly closed the browser with a click, which made me remember why I was here in the first place
  1561. >before she could turn around to face me, I get on my hands and knees and head sunk on the ground
  1562. >"Akki! I'm very sorry for everything that happened today. I will tell you everything you want to know. Please forgive me!"
  1563. >although my head was still down, I could hear her turn from her desk and face me
  1564. >"Anon... it's alright, I forgive you. As I said before, I know you wouldn't cheat on me. You're not that type of person after all."
  1565. >her words were reassuring, but I set my mind to filling her in on everything
  1566. >next thing I know, I started telling her about how Hilda and her friend beat me up on that first day, and how I started boxing lessons in order to put her in her place
  1567. >I also told her about the various encounters in the hallways with Hilda as well as how she had an unexpected sweet side to her when I saw her at the sports store
  1568. >Akki listened quietly as I rambled to her, as I started to feel the tension from holding everything in, release as I spill everything to her
  1569. >once I was finished, Akki kneeled down and caressed my cheek
  1570. >"Anon... you've tried your best didn't you?"
  1571. >her words startled me, as I raise my head to look at her face
  1572. >she looked so joyful; the grin on her face stretched from ear to ear as tears started to fill her eyes
  1573. >"I'm so glad that you opened up to me about all of this. You have no idea how happy I am to hear it from you. To tell you the truth though Anon, I have something to confess as well."

  1575. Part XXIII (7/19/2016):
  1576. >>196352
  1577.  
  1578. >Akki gestured me to sit in her computer chair as she digs around in her closet
  1579. >she then pulls out a bandana out and faces me slowly with a somewhat nervous look on her face
  1580. >it was golden brown with black stripes, as if to signify the strength of a tiger
  1581. >a deep breath came out of her mouth as she begins to wrap the cloth around her head, poking her horns through two holes that seemed to be there for convenience
  1582. >"You see, Anon. I was way different before I met you."
  1583. >she stared off in space for a bit then looked back at me
  1584. >"I used to fight... a lot. Ogres, hell hounds, dragons, orcs, and even other onis."
  1585. >she sighed and shakes her head
  1586. >"And the thing is, I enjoyed it quite a bit. It got my blood pumping, and it made life exciting... at the time, of course. You see, Hilda wasn't the first nor last to fight me. She was just another challenger back then."
  1587. >her lip began to quiver
  1588. >"It was fun until I realized there were no more challengers left to fight. Everywhere I went, humans and other mamono would avoid me entirely. And before I knew it, I was completely alone... Until I met you."
  1589. >her demeanor did a 180 as smiles brightly at me and hold her arms out towards me
  1590. >I reciprocate by standing from the chair and complying with my arms in a soft embrace
  1591. >"I'm sorry I got you wrapped up in this whole mess, Anon. If only I was more-"
  1592. >I pushed myself away from her and looked her in her eyes then reached up towards her head
  1593. >as the fabric reached my fingertips, I slowly pulled it off of her short hair, making sure to slip it through the holes that her horns made
  1594. >I then place the bandana on my head and began tying the fabric to keep in in place
  1595. >"Dragons, orcs, hell hounds? Bring it on! I know I haven't been training for that long, but I'm no pushover. Akki, you don't have to suffer alone anymore. That's what I'm here for after all."
  1596. >I say that confidently, but know that I'm no match in my current state; however, if it's for her sake, I would face the whole world
  1597. >suddenly Akki leans down and kisses my cheek
  1598. >"W-whoa"
  1599. >the smooches continue as she makes her way over to my ear then whispers
  1600. >"Thank you, Anon~"
  1601. >the hot, moist breath from her whisper gave me goosebumps, but snapped me out of it when she began to nibble on my earlobe
  1602. >she then extends her arm to my chest and pushes me back on her computer chair, but traps me in place by kneeling on top of me
  1603. >her face was extremely red, but her expression was the happiest I've ever seen
  1604. >"Hold still, okay?"
  1605. >she takes the unties the bandana off my head and folded it into a thin strip, which she uses to cover my eyes and tie around the back of my head
  1606. >"You trust me, right?"
  1607. >it was completely dark, I have no idea what she's planning on doing, but I know she wouldn't hurt me
  1608. >"Y-yeah, of course"
  1609. >I then feel a soft sensation on my right cheek as well as what seemed to be her fingers shuffling through my hair in a comforting manner
  1610. >the soft kisses slowly made their way down towards my jawline and finally my neck
  1611. >the onslaught slowed down a little with brought out feeling of the softness of her lips anymore; it was startling, yet felt really good
  1612. >at this point, I couldn't hold it in anymore
  1613. >"Pff, ha ha ha ha, please stop. No more! Ha ha ha"
  1614. >she took her hand off of my hair and wrapped it around my back to hold me in place while she continued to kiss my neck
  1615. >oh man, what do I do? I can't move, I can't see, but I can feel everything 3x as much as normal
  1616. >she stopped briefly without saying a word; is she giving me a break? I have no idea what she plans to do next, but I anxiously await
  1617. >she starts to pinpoint one spot on my neck and furiously kisses it and begins to suck and eventually I felt her teeth digging into me slowly as I feel my skin start to pinch
  1618. >"O-ow, Akki? Wh-what are you doing?"
  1619. >she doesn't stop, but instead continues to suck even harder for a good 2 minutes until she finally releases with a few soft kisses around the area
  1620. >"You're mine and always will be. Don't forget that~"
  1621. >she hugs me once more, burying her head in my chest as if she was going to listen to my heartbeat
  1622. >I felt completely exhausted even though I didn't do anything, but she seems to be full of energy
  1623.  
  1624. >suddenly we both stop as we both hear a door slamming from above us
  1625. >"CRAP, mom is home! Uhh, Anon, I gotta hide you. I'll be back to get you out. Don't move, okay"
  1626. >she swiftly picks me up and drops me on the ground, sliding a door shut in front of me before running out of the room
  1627. >"Whoa, what's going on? I can't see anything."
  1628. >I begin to take the blindfold off, but it's still dark; she must've put me in her closet
  1629. >I touch the area where the hickey was beginning to form as I wait patiently in the enclosed space, anticipating what will happens next
  1630.  
  1631. Part XXIV (7/25/2016):
  1632. >>198355
  1633.  
  1634. >I remained motionless as I controlled my breathing in order to have any hope of hearing anything that's going on above me
  1635. >Akki's footsteps shuffle up the stairs in a hurry as she makes her way towards the front door
  1636. >...
  1637. >silence, I can't hear a damn thing
  1638. >I stand up on my toes and tilt my head to the ceiling in hopes of catching anything
  1639. >"So, I got a call saying that you got into a fight at school?"
  1640. >oh shit, that was quick
  1641. >"You've got a lot of explaining to do, Akki!"
  1642. >oh man, I'm starting to feel the guilt again
  1643. >suddenly I hear jumbled footsteps coming back down the stairs; must be both of them since their voices are also getting louder
  1644. >"M-mom, it isn't like that! I did it for Anon."
  1645. >they seemed to have stopped in the living room briefly
  1646. >"Hmm... explain it to me then"
  1647. >there was a long, uncomfortable silence that was finally interrupted by a loud sigh
  1648. >"So... Anon, was his name? What's your relationship with him?"
  1649. >I'm kind of surprised that Akki didn't tell her mom about me yet, but it didn't matter to me that much
  1650. >"Anon is a guy I really like, mom. N-no, I love him to bits. In fact, we started going out recently, and he cares a lot about me. I don't regret anything I did today."
  1651. >I can feel my face going red at this point
  1652. >"Hmm. If that's the case, you've made me proud! I'm glad you met a man that's worth fighting for. Why didn't you tell me sooner?"
  1653. >the footsteps grow closer towards Akki's room until I can hear them right outside of the closet
  1654. >"W-wait, why are you going in my room?"
  1655. >I hold still and hold my breath abruptly as I hear the closet door creaked as it is being leaned upon
  1656. >the quietness brought out the feeling of my heart rapidly beating as if it were about to burst out at this very second
  1657. >"I'm very happy for you Akki. I was so worried. My daughter..."
  1658. >I hear clothes being shuffled around; maybe she leaned in for a hug?
  1659. >"I really want to meet this guy. Is he treating you right? I don't want you to get into fights anymore. I don't like seeing you suffer the way you used to. I just-"
  1660. >"He has a really good heart, mom. There's no reason for you to worry anymore, okay?"
  1661. >I hear them take a couple of steps away from each other
  1662. >"By the way Akki, give me your phone and laptop. I'll let you use it when you need it for homework."
  1663.  
  1664. >"W-what? Why?"
  1665. >the phone sounded as though it was quickly snatched out of her hands
  1666. >"I'm happy for you and all, but that doesn't mean that you can fool around this week. You DID get suspended for a week so don't expect to be let off the hook."
  1667. >oh shit that's right; Akki didn't tell me about her getting suspended or anything when I saw her, but that makes sense
  1668. >jeez, I've gotten her into quite a mess, I gotta do something nice for her soon
  1669. >"Oh yeah, and I don't want you going out to see your boyfriend for the week either."
  1670. >...WHAT
  1671. >"B-but-"
  1672. >"No buts. I don't want to encourage this type of behavior from you. What you did was admirable, but you must face the consequences for you actions. What type of parent would I be if I just let you get into trouble and let you take it easy? Do you understand what I'm trying to say?"
  1673. >as much as I hate to admit it, she's right
  1674. >...there was no response
  1675. >"Don't forget that I love you Akki. I just want the best from you, alright?"
  1676. >I heard a kiss being planted as she walks out of the room before stopping suddenly
  1677. >"Oh and by the way, it smells like a human has been in here? You wouldn't know anything about that, would you?"
  1678. >ah, have I been found out?
  1679. >"No, no. No one's been in here ha ha. I think you might be smelling these sweatpants that I've been holding on to."
  1680. >sweatpants..? She still has those!?
  1681. >"Why do you have someone else's sweatpants? Eh, never mind that I asked."
  1682. >the footsteps decayed softly, as Akki's mom heads out of her room and back up the stairs
  1683. >"Augh, what are we going to do, Anon?"
  1684.  
  1685. Part XXV (8/2/2016):
  1686. >>200156
  1687.  
  1688. >I look at Akki's face and feel troubled by the scared expression on her face
  1689. >sighing as I step out of the closet and place a hand on her shoulder as reassurance
  1690. >"You know, this whole mess is all of my fault. I'll just go and introduce myself to your mo-"
  1691. >suddenly, Akki stomps in frustration and shakes her head
  1692. >"No! You can't, Anon. All the things I did back then puts her on edge sometimes and she won't be happy to see you. Not now at least."
  1693. >she does have a point, but...
  1694. >"Y-yeah, I get that, but what else am I supposed to do?"
  1695. >her fearful look dissipated into a mischievous grin that startled me to my core
  1696. >"Well Anon, just stay the night then! You can't leave my room without permission though~"
  1697. >this is insane
  1698. >"You mean to tell me to stay here, until it's time to leave for school the next morning without getting caught by your mom? How's that gonna work!?"
  1699. >she winks at me and puts a finger on her lips
  1700. >"It'll be fine if we keep it down. The house is pretty squeaky so if my mom comes back down, you can just get back in the closet."
  1701. >her hand comes on my shoulder as an attempt to reassure me instead, but I'm not buying it
  1702. >"Besides Anon. You didn't really get a good look at her, did you?"
  1703. >I shook my head but was starting to feel a little curious about who she really was
  1704. >"Hmm, she does work as a body guard during the day, so she could easily break bones if she wanted to. You wouldn't want that to happen to you, would you~?"
  1705. >I gulped and started to realize the situation that I'm in
  1706. >"So it's settled then! I'm so excited! Having you in my room, all to myself..."
  1707. >ehh, I don't like how things are turning up, but it doesn't seem like I have any other options at this point
  1708. >either go upstairs and face the wraith of Akki's (probably buff as hell) mom or stay here and be subject to whatever she has planned
  1709. >"By the way, you just told me that you skipped the first day. That's no good Anon. Let me help you out."
  1710. >maybe things won't be as bad as I think they'll be?
  1711.  
  1712. >we decided to do some homework together to pass some time while idly chit chatting about various things
  1713. >the desk in her room was pretty empty since her laptop was gone so we both were able to work next to each other, but we were both squeezed up on the same chair since there was only one in her room
  1714. >while she looked content, I was beginning to feel a little hot and bothered, thus defeating the purpose of this study session
  1715. >"Ahh, I can't do these problems anymore Akki. I'll do it later!"
  1716. >I stood up from the chair and stretched out a bit and looked back down at Akki, who started puffing her cheeks out which made an adorable pouty face
  1717. >"W-what's the face for?"
  1718. >she gets up from her chair as well and faces me
  1719. >"Okay, let's take a short break."
  1720. >... there's not much to do, huh
  1721. >Akki broke the silence though with an off putting question
  1722. >"So... uh, Anon? I hate to bring this up, but... Hilda kissed you, right?"
  1723. >uh oh
  1724. >"Y-yeah, but she forced me to do it. I don't like her at all though, and I feel ashamed for not being strong enough to stop it. I hope you understand."
  1725. >she walks up to me and puts her thumb on my lips sensually
  1726. >"I see. I know that you'd never do something like that, but I'm still bothered by it. She just went and had her way with you when I was gone... It's really upsetting"
  1727. >she takes her hand and pushes me as I back into her mattress until I laid down on top of the covers with her arms at both of my sides
  1728. >"It was like this, wasn't it?"
  1729. >I nodded silently, and she moved her hand to place her fingers on the hickey she made on my neck
  1730. >"I'm frustrated that she kissed you, so... I want to erase that memory from you and replace it with something better."
  1731. >Akki got up from the mattress and walked towards her door; closing it and finally locking it
  1732. >she dimmed the lights as she turns her head towards me
  1733. >"Now that I've got you right where I want you, I hope you're ready for what's to come, Anon~"
