F*ck Yeah! I'm The Villain

Its not because we can't take revenge

that we should feel sorry.

The real reason to feel sorry...

is when one is hung up on revenge and can't live their own life.

-Yoshimura

I'm hurt Melia, you don't know what I am? After all, I'm a big part of your life. The very existence of your being..."

I keep my back straight٫ my mind is going haywire now that I know what this thing is. Just how did it manage to infiltrate the academy!?

"I was wondering when you and I would finally have some alone time. I waited patiently. Then I saw your friend Gazora walking all by herself. It was just too good of a tempta-

"Dont you touch her!" I circulate the mana throughout my meridians I can feel them swelling from the intensity of it all. This body is not use to holding so much power.

I prepare myself to launch a powerful attack once that thing is close enough. The huiyin palm strike. Combined with my fire element٫ if I am able to land a hit near any of its vital organs٫ I am sure this elaborate illusion will fall.

I feel its presence getting closer٫ before it can get within arm's reach I hit it. My right hand burns with power٫ I'm overexerting this body. I thought it would automatically adjust. That was just foolish thinking.

It's screams so loud I feel myself getting sick. Its as though someone is scraping their nails along a chalkboard and driving a metal knife into my neck.

Its screams make me lose my composure and I feel a hand grab my neck. Its grip is so tight my eyes bulge out.

"You killed my mother٫ and for that even if I die you're coming down with me."

---------------------------

I've been in this place for two days now and Melia hasn't come to see me yet. What could have her so busy to the point that she can't check on her best friend.

Weirdly I'm not that worried. I'm more concerned on whether Sebastian is coming to visit again. I miss seeing his face. He's my best friend's prince but why can't he be mine as well? there's nothing that says he can not. I just want to see concern from him for me.

I wish I could say I felt guilty....but I don't.

"Good morning Gazora٫ how are you today?" The nurse asks.

"I'm good٫ I could be better though." Dejection comes over me when I look at my half grown back leg.

"Well there is a cute boy outside here to visit you so hopefully that cheers you up." My heart skips a beat at her words. He came to see me again.

I can't help the tiny fire of hope that lights up in my heart. That I have a chance.

"Send him in." I motion weakly.

His familiar scent enters the room before I see him. It's a mixture of the forest and a subtle hint of mint.

"Hey٫ Ora how are you?" his voice is deep. Its makes my body tingle.

"I'm o-okay. I could be better though." I cough weakly. I cover my mouth with a handkerchief in my hand. Indirectly giving him a view of my fair skin.

I'm pretty and I look like I nerd protecting. Don't most guys go for that sort of thing? I'm not worried he's just hiding his feelings.

"I don't want to disturb your recovery but I was wondering if you'd seen Melia. I knocked on her door and she hadn't answered so I thought she came to see you." His words made my heart turn cold.

Tears rush to the back of my eyes but I will them back. I don't want him to see me cry.

"N-no٫ she hasn't been by here at all. Do you think she's upset with me? We are best friends٫ you'd think she would want to know if Him okay..." I can't help but splash dirt on Melia.

I wonder if its possible for me to ruin his image of her. I am her best friend. My words should have some kind of credibility with him? He'll believe me.

"Im sure its not like that. I haven't told her yet so she is probably still in the dark. I'll check the library. Get well soon."

No! Her can't leave me already! He just got here!

I do the only thing I can think of and fall out of the bed.

*Crash*

He turns around just as he was headed out. He picks me up off the ground٫albeit a bit roughly.

"Ouch"٫ I let out a tiny yelp like a kitten. His arms are squeezing me too tightly . He puts me back on the bed.

"Can you pass me that glass of water? I-I was trying to get it but I fell." I lower my eyes٫ my eyelashes trembling with fresh tears coating them.

The rims of my eyes are red.

"Here." His baritone voice is ice cold٫ I pretend not to pick up on his growing annoyance.

I reach for the cup٫ our fingers graze each other. His are cold to the touch. Different from the warmth I felt the day he carried me.

"I'll be going now....and Ora٫ please stop embarrassing yourself.. It's off putting."
