The Vampire Cat System

While, Bernard and the girls were busy having a tour around league city someone was preparing himself and mustering the courage to go outside and face them, this person was none than Ryan, after spending time mulling about what Quzin told him over and over, Ryan realized the old man was correct and just holing himself inside his room crying and blaming himself would not fix anything, so at this moment he was building up his momentum.

Ryan stood before the mirror inside his room and was rehearsing his words and what he was going to say to them and when he finally sees them, due to he was still feeling guilty he didn't know if he should look them in the eyes or not, besides that he was afraid of how they would react he knew he had betrayed them and no one would take the act of betrayal likely, he realized no matter how much he rehearse his words and what to say he wasn't getting them right and would always make one mistake or the other when he got to the next line.

Ryan felt frustrated, he didn't really know apologizing with words could be this difficult what's more he had no idea how long he could keep practicing his words but he knew that if kept going on like this there would be no end to it, he didn't want to make another mistake in front of Bernard and the girls was why he thought about rehearsing his words in the first place but now he realize it was as good as useless, after several minutes Ryan gave up rehearsing and sat on his bed.

He held his face and cried once more, however as if he had gained courage and motivation he sniffed back the mucus about to drop from his nose and stood up.

Just as he was about to walk towards the door he suddenly heard a knock on his door making him startled as he jumped up in fright, he couldn't help but thought about who might be knocking on his door although he and the second years had formed a complicated relationship of some sort they would not bother themselves to come to his dorm nor do they care about him so he was sure the person knocking on his door was likely Bernard or Emelia, even more, he could be both Bernard and the girls were there to check on him.

Thinking he was them, Ryan stood up, took in a deep breath, and walked toward the door with his legs trembling from nervousness, however, he still forced himself to walk to the door as he held the handle to the door he hesitated for a while, he still didn't know what to say to them yet nevertheless he twisted the handle and slid the lock to the side.

"Hey guys, I was about to come and see you all.."

Ryan said, the words had just left his mouth when he saw who it was he widened his eyes in shock and was about to slam the door right back and lock it, however, he was a bit slower than his visitors because just as the door was about to be slammed someone suddenly sent a punch through the little gap and hit him right on his stomach sending his figure flying backward.

"Long time no see, Ryan."

A voice could be heard the next moment, as several students walked in he didn't need to think much before he knew the seconds were out to get him, clearly, they had gotten wind of what he did but he wasn't scared of them nor was he going to giving into another demand of theirs anymore, Ryan finally stood and glared at the several students that were mixed with both second years and first years.

The leading student chuckled when he saw the look on Ryan's expression, but didn't really care as he walked over to Ryan's bed and sat down before he snapped a finger making a student by the door side lock the door so no one could see them or eavesdrop, after all, they had been warned after the recent incident that any second years caught beating up any first-year student would be severely punish and the punishment wasn't something that could not be taken lightly.

The leading student snap his fingers once again, making the group of students by his sidewalk towards Ryan, before he could put up any form of struggle he was grabbed by the arms tightly until he couldn't struggle anymore, as the leading student saw this he looked at Ryan with schadenfreude and amusement, and he signal for them to bring Ryan before him as they brought Ryan before him he was made to kneel down, with both his arms and shoulders held from the sides.

"Ryan...Ryan...Ryan, how many times did I call you? Three right? For a while, I have been thinking and wondering how the old man Quzin got wind of what we were doing on the assembly ground until I finally heard a rat sneaked out and informed the old man." He said." And relax am not saying you are the rat, cause I know you would never tell on your dear friends.

"However, if it was up to me alone I wouldn't have bothered to come here but then I had no choice you know why because after the recent incident we are now between a hard place and a rock, so I would like to ask you a simple question, were you the one that informed the old man Quzin or not?"

After he was done talking, he drew closer towards him and stared at him dead straight in the eyes, making Ryan subconsciously quiver, however, he wasn't afraid nor was he going to give in anymore was what he promised himself and he would keep to that no matter what happens even if they tortured him, and with a fearless look on his face Ryan opened his mouth and said."Yeah, I was the one who called Quzin, you can torture me all you like but if I was given the opportunity to do it again I will still do it..."

Those words had just left his mouth before he choked on them with another punch to his stomach making him screeh he wasn't going to shout nor would he give the seconds years the chance to find any weakness to use against him again.
