Karmagisa: To Fall in Love with the Prey

13 | The Struggles Begin

<3rd POV>
"Nagisa! Are you alright?!" Ritsu finally made it to the scene and witnessed Akira on the ground. She followed the trail of blood that essentially led obvious red pool surrounding him.

"Never better." He spoke with his voice strained.

With once glace at Karma, Rigsu shoved him aside and kneeled over Nagisa.

"Well that escalated quickly." Itona tilted his head and squatted near Akira's body to examine. "You have to stop attacking the kidneys even if they are easy soft spots. You know hospitals would really use a pair."

"are you really lecturing me right now?" Nagisa rolled his eyes and leaned on his arm.

"You shouldn't be moving." Ritsu pushed Nagisa back down on the ground.

"Did anything happen beforehand?" Nagisa looked out towards the main school building.

"Well, there was a bomb that exploded but it was used as a warning to scare the other students, no one got hurt." Ritsu replied.

"Anyway, you have the hand cuffs?" Nagisa asked. "Let's hurry and lock him up." Nagisa tried to get up from the ground and Ritsu ended up helping.

Immediately, Nagisa got lightheaded all of a sudden and Ritsu support him.

"You're definitely not okay." She pointed out the obvious.

"I called Karasuma not long ago. He should be sending backup soon. And I️ don't think they are necessary, the cuffs I️ mean. Itona said whole lightly kicking the side of Akira's body.

Ritsu made eye contact with Karma and she wondered how he was still alive.

"Too bad we can't touch what's marked."

Karma blinked multiple times in confusion to her words.

"What is that suppose to mean?" Karma glared at Ritsu and her sudden bitterness.

"It's nothing." Ritsu turned away with a sassy hair flip. "I don't know what's great about you anyways."

"You sure you're fine, Nagisa?" Itona asked once more to confirm it. "You complexion is bad."

"Clean." Nagisa spoke. "Just a billet graze."

Ritsu pulled on Nagisa's sleeve and pointed out the blood stain on his uniform.

"But..."

"This? This is not my blood." Nagisa stated.

"Oh alright. Just clean up later okay?" Ritsu let go of his sleeve but it seemed to her that it wasn't the case.

The next day many students didn't show up for school and that included Sugino, Yukiko, and Isogai. Maybe because the parents were still in a fright after what had happen previously at school.

However, Nagisa was diligently working and Ritsu was painting her nails before the bell rang. The class started with that blonde, Nagisa's aunt. She began speaking in English and we followed along like usual.

For Kaede, she was flustered like always as she was talking to the others about her big chest.

Class went on and it felt like yesterday never happened.

During lunch, everyone dispersed into there groups like usual and I leaned back in my chair, about to take and nap.
Before I closed my eyes, I notice Nagisa getting up from his seat almost weirdly like he didn't have the slightest balance. He almost tripped one his way out, but leaned his arm on a desk with his other hand placed on his stomach.
