2.2 - Vengeance
-----
Not long after, a pack of girls came out from the classroom in a stack.
Alica ended up asking for help from all the female students in the classroom. She requested them to simply come with her to go and greet the sender of the ultimatum letter, all with the intention of scaring off the sender for good.
The girls agreed to come. Most of them thought that since nothing will happen anyway, it will be okay to follow along. Most of them only came to add to the numbers, without any intentions of joining Alica with her actions. Only a very select few who are very close to Alica have those intentions, and the rest are only there to bear witness.
Little do they know… that everyone coming will be affected.
The group of twelve girls marched towards class D, the classroom of the sender. Led by Alica, the group arrived in front of the classroom and took a quick glance inside.
Apparently, the sender was not here.
Inside the class, every single student was very surprised seeing so many female students marching in front of their classroom. They immediately knew something had happened, and they began to worry if a problem was about to arise.
To their surprise, the group of girls simply left the classroom without saying a word.
Alica only led the group to Class D to check if her target was still in their class. But, looks like the target had already moved to the promised location.
The location that was mentioned and promised inside the letter was the bathroom of the first year's floor. Where Alica and the sender first met, where the sender was captured by Alica's allies. Where everything between them happened.
During the walk, every student on the hallway can only open up a way for the group. Alica's group were stacked together tightly, all while keeping an eye on all the students they walked past. They wouldn't want to miss the girl that they are looking for. But, thanks to these actions, it makes it seem like they are watching the students closely as if they are a mean bully group from the first year.
Everyone got scared of the group and ended up opening a free path towards the bathroom. The girls hadn't done a single thing, and everyone was already worried.
The real problem has yet to begin, though.
I began to hear commotion coming from the outside, and I turned my glare away from the tap towards the closed bathroom door. Noticing the amount of noise, a grin formed on my face.
"They're here."
I said, and I kept an eye out on the bathroom door. Aside from me, there's two other girls by the tap water, talking with one another while fixing their make ups using the wide bathroom mirror. There's no one inside the bathroom stalls, so it's only us.
Looks like it's finally time.
BAAMM!!!!
The door to the bathroom was opened violently by the group, surprising everyone inside. The two girls aside from me were very shocked to see a group of girls marching inside the bathroom, all while looking very meanly as they searched the bathroom.
Their eyes landed on the three girls in the bathroom, and Alica specifically spotted me staring at the mirror. Seeing me with my new appearance, she was rather surprised.
"… You?"
She said to me confusingly, and I turned a faint smile towards her.
"It's been a while. You seemed very excited to meet me again."
I said happily to her, and that pissed Alica even further. This is the first time she met me since last Friday, and she certainly didn't expect me to look like this.
Looks like the efforts I made was worthwhile, after all. It managed to make Alica's face looks like that.
Surprise~, I'm quite pretty, right?
After realizing, Alica turned to the two girls aside from me in the bathroom. Those poor girls were only bystanders, and they had no reason to exist in this room.
"You two. Leave."
Alica commanded the two scared girls, and they ran towards the exit while keeping their heads down. Everyone gets scared whenever a large number of people suddenly barge into the bathroom angrily, so I think their reaction is quite natural.
What's not natural is my behavior. Alica noticed this, since I am basically being beaten one against many. Seeing me being extraordinarily calm, she knows that I am up to something.
And since she brought numbers, Alica isn't afraid.
"Guard the door."
Alica said behind her, and two of the girls who came with her left the bathroom as well. They closed the door shut, not allowing it to be opened from the outside.
All the preparations are done. With nine girls with her, Alica turned her pissed off smile towards me.
"You have some guts calling me out like this. You think wearing some make up is going to stop you from getting hated by everyone?"
Alica said in a friendly tone while folding her arms, and I giggled hearing her truly caring and considerate words.
"Hmm~. Thank you for worrying about me. But, I had no such intentions with my makeup. I simply wanted to show everyone what I am capable of, that's all."
"And...? What would you achieve after you showed everyone this ugly face of yours?"
Alica finally went frontal, and my grin grew wider.
"The fact that all of you are going to regret messing with me."
I said with a condescending tone and smile, making Alica's fuse lit. She lifted her hand up and signaled the girls behind her, and the girls began to move forward to reach me.
But, things will not end like last time.
VWOOSH!!!
Very suddenly, wind breezed very powerfully inside the bathroom.
The girls were caught off guard as they got pushed back slightly from the powerful wind. Thanks to the wind, their hairs become uncontrolled and even mess up their clothes. Some even fell to the ground after being pushed by the wind.
This is an enclosed space. The window is as small as a human head, so it shouldn't be possible for wind to flow that strong inside this small room.
Unless…
"What just…?"
Alica mumbled while looking around, but her eyes eventually landed on me.
Me. Who is completely unaffected by the powerful wind.
Me. Who is simply grinning at her and the girls.
Me. Who is staring down at them with a demeaning gaze.
As soon as she saw my expression, Alica knew that this was all a trap by me. She received that letter with the purpose of getting her into this closed off room on her own volition, and she thought she had the upper hand when she came here alongside nine other girls.
Unfortunately, I was never alone here.
I lifted my right arm at her, and I pointed it towards her face. Seeing me still smiling as I did it made Alica realize just how deep she had fallen into the trap. Not just her, but the girls behind her are also staring at me with high levels of fear.
Alica and the girls have definitely heard about the rumors. The rumors of how I am somewhat related to supernatural things. And knowing all of those rumors combined with the current situation, they all became very frightened of what is about to happen.
From this point on, things will become dangerous.
"W-Wait, this is--"
"Too far? Or too much? Well, in any case, you won't be able to get out of here until the very end.
You want to apologize? Well… It's Too Late."
I said coldly at her, and she cannot look more scared. I lifted my left hand in front of my chest, and I formed the pose to snap my fingers with that hand.
Then, I snapped my fingers.
FLICK!!
And the room turned dark.
The light was turned off. The bathroom window behind me was instantly closed off by something, completely putting a stop to the sunlight that was entering the room. As a result, the room turned completely pitch black.
The girls screamed, yelled, and even cried as they begged to get out. The bathroom door got smacked and pulled as the girls tried to leave, but it didn't even budge a little bit. They shouted for the door to be opened, but the two girls outside didn't even open it.
It's almost like they couldn't hear what was happening on the inside.
For ten seconds, nothing really happened. The only thing that has happened so far was the lights turning off. Aside from that, Alica and the girls are mostly fine.
Alica tried touching the wall, anything to keep her body balanced. She arrived by the wall and wondered deeply as to what was happening.
Behind her, the girls started yelling and begging to be let go. From that alone, Alica guessed that something must be happening to them. She tried thinking of what to do, but something else happened before she could.
Her legs felt like it was being held by someone, and she yelled as hard as she could.
"Alica!!"
The girl behind her shouted, but Alica was still screaming. The hands are pulling her legs, forcing her to fall on the ground. After falling, Alica tried holding the floor so that she wouldn't get pulled. But to her surprise, the hand pulling her let go.
She tried standing up again and tried running back to the other girls, but things started to happen even faster than before.
The light was turned on for a moment, and everyone turned their gazes towards the center of the room. Right behind where Alica is standing, everyone kept their shocked gazes towards that place.
A single woman is floating in the air behind Alica. She had long black hair that was waving around in the air, and her eyes were pitch black. Her skin is pale, and she had a terrifying smile as she faced them towards the girls.
Seeing this, the girls couldn't breathe nor say anything. They only looked in pure shock at the demon floating behind Alica, and they all stayed silent. One of the girls who was closest to Alica pointed her hand behind Alica. Seeing this, Alica slowly turned around.
As soon as she saw the woman behind her, Alica screamed.
That's the queue for the chaos to ensue even harder.
