R:VCP | Chapter 14: Reminiscence

What the fudge~~~ Σ(ﾟ口ﾟ;

How did I end up in this situation!!??

My feeling right now?

(＞﹏＜)

In the garden of the rooftop, two people stood. One was a beautiful lady, with a hair that reflects the silver moon, while the handsome gentleman with a red flaming hair was also beside her.

The lady was obviously, our Main Villainess, Luna. And, the other was our heterochroma guy, Alistair.

Luna was looking at the moon, if you watch from behind, you'll only see a beautiful girl gracefully looking and beholding the moon, but in the reality this girl was actually a blushing mess!

Why? Of course, it was because what happened awhile ago~~

'Fudge!! Fudge! Fudge!!! Why!!? Why did I end up running away with him!!?? Owoooohhhhh *howl* so embarrassing~~'

Luna still in her own thoughts, didn't noticed that Alistair, was silently observing her.

*Woshhhhh~*

The wind have blown, but still the silence remained. Till,

"I'm sorry about that. It was just a sudden impulse when I was in my panicked state, that leads me to accidentally grabbing your hand, and dragging you along, running away, with me... "

Luna who was in her thoughts just a while ago. Broke the silence and apologize and explained to him.

With a meek expression, she then, bowed and apologize once again. For her, she knows that Alistair, this heterochroma guy, have already discovered her mask, so what's the point on continuing acting cold in front of him then?..

So, she decided to uncaringly and openly show her real personality then. With guilty and apologetic expression she then apologize again.

"I'm really sorry. It was my fault!" A number of persons, when receiving an apology... for polite and nice people they either reply to it with 'It's Alright' or 'it's good, don't worry' while for some people who doesn't care on the other hand, the most common thing they'll say is 'it doesn't matter' or even straightforwardly ignore the person who is apologizing.

Luna thought that Alistair would do one of these things too.

But, she never expected, even in her wildest dream that Alistair would answer her with.

"Hmm." Alistair made a sound of acknowledgement.

"So, I--- huh?" ('･ω･')? 'Wait, What???'

"It was your fault. *Sigh* but, at least you know it. Then that's good."

Σ( ° △ °)

'Wait-- just wait! What? My fault? My fault!? '

Luna who was actually, thinking of tons and tons of excuses and explanations, suddenly found herself stumped for words.

"Errmmm... Come again?" From her bowing posture, she then straighten her stature, and stare questioningly at Alistair.

Alistair, looked at her for a moment, the corner of his lips inexplicably raised. A small smile was present, but due to the night, and their lack of ambiguity, both of them didn't notice it.

"You said it was your fault..." A glint of teasing pass by Alistair's eyes, "So, I merely agreed to it. Hmm..."

Luna found herself still unable to refute. Can only remain silent still.

"Miss Luna?" Tilting his head with a small tinsy smile hanging in the corner of his lips, Alistair called out to Luna. "Not coming yet?"

Luna was dazed for a moment, heard him then looked up, and regain her senses.

'This guy... Is dangerous!! 囧 . His handsome face is really a fatal blow for girls! Luckily I'm not just any girl~~'

Luna fake cough awkwardly, and directly went pass Alistair. Where is she headed? Of course! Where else?

Alistair looking at Luna's retreating back, was really in a good mood. For what reason? Meh ╮(︶▽︶)╭ he doesn't know.

Now walking with her, by walking with her means following her who was fast walking, he now knows that his days won't be boring anymore.

"Duze, report. What will happen now that Belle didn't follow the plot?" A girl who's appearance was comparable to an angel, asked in a whisper to no one in particular. If one saw her like this, they'll obviously think that she is crazy.

But it would really be crazier if someone or something really do reply.
╮(︶▽︶)╭

[Reporting to host Camilla! Nothing will happen even if the plot now is not being followed. As long as you were not the one who made it like this, points deduction will not commence.]

A childish voice answered her. The girl hearing this revealed a smile.

"Thanks Duze!"

[You're welcome host Camilla~ but by the way host. Why aren't you making a move yet? Spade, that Capture Target is the one the original Camille likes right?]

The System who's name Duze asked confused. Camille, the girl who was talking to 'no one' , giggled.

"What are you saying Duze~?" She asked innocently tilting her head. "But, I am doing my best."

[Huh? But host!! You didn't do anything 囧]

"Hmm... Well, can you tell me again what's my mission is then~" She lazily asked.

[Well... Host Camilla, for your Main Mission...

Main Mission: Make Camille's dream come true; Make Spade fall in love with you.

Side Mission 1: Help the other Villainess to their happy end.

Side Mission 2: ??? Lock ???

Side Mission 3: ??? Lock ???

Some side missions are still lock, but you will be able to unlock it in the near future, so don't give up yet host!! Especially the prize of this mission is your own memories! So do your best host Camilla! So please get moving now host !!囧]

"Hmm~~ but I am moving~~" Camille answer nonchalantly.

[Host, but I never see you made a move... And the progress bar is stil--- Wha!?? How could this be!!?? Σ(ﾟДﾟ) Host-- how-w?]

"*Chuckle* see~~ I told you~~ hmm... So, the progress bar is really moving then huh... And it is the side mission 1 at that, right?"

[Yes, host... It's already 7% without you even doing anything... But how!!??]

"*Sigh* Duze..." Camille's joyful smile suddenly disappeared and changed into a sad one. "It's not that I didn't do anything... It's just that, someone else is doing it instead of me."

[=͟͟͞͞(꒪⌓꒪*)]

'Luna... Why?

Why are you doing this?'

The Opening of the Acquaintance Ball has finally started, everyone are now starting to swarm inside the Grand Ballroom Hall.

Everything has finally settled down, and the student representative Luna, who will do the honor of welcoming everyone has finally arrived.

Luna, who keep losing face and teased by our Alistair awhile ago, is finally back with her face intact.

The cold, emotionless aloof goddess of the male students is finally back, and is now making a speech for everyone and welcoming them to the great Skylarford University.

After her Opening speech. The Acquaintance Ball has officially started, and so does the official hunt. What hunt? 'Hunt for Luna' of course.

The participants? Of course it's the Heroine and the Villainesses.

So, when they saw their prey Luna went of the stage they immediately scattered and race to catch their prey, Luna.

But, sadly they were stop halfway.

"Belle, can I ask you to dance? Earlier you actually kinda left immediately, *chuckle* and I wasn't able to ask you by then." Jacob who was in the lead of the group asked Belle.

The Villainesses seeing Luna who was obviously escaping couldn't care less anymore and immediately went pass the Capture Targets, leaving Belle to handle them.

But, who could've thought that, the other Capture Targets wasn't actually here for Belle, but instead they are here for them, their Villainess.

So, they stop their designated partners from running away.

"Dahlia, we need to talk." Dahlia seeing Luna disappearing along the vast of students immediately feel anxious and when Damon stopped her, she was clearly outrage.

"Leave me alone Damon! Haven't you have enough!??" She looked at him with anger and hurt, her eyes brimming with tears and immediately brushed off Damon's hold on her.

Damon was clearly stunned for a moment seeing her like that, but he didn't let her go. Why?? He doesn't know too. But, he knows that he must not let go no matter what, or else he'll regret it.

Ivy was the same too. Tears was already falling from her eyes, but Liam still didn't let her go. She looked at the vast of students where Luna just were but Luna wasn't there anymore.

She immediately felt more desperate now.

"Let me go master! Please..." She keep tugging her hands away from Liam's hold. But Liam held her more tightly.

"No. Not letting go." He said firmly, Liam himself don't know why but he had this sudden thought that if he don't hold Ivy tight. She might disappear in any given time.

Camille seeing this scene couldn't help but frown a bit.

'Guess I'm the only one will be hunting Luna then. *Sigh*'

When she was about to go and run, a body suddenly appeared in front of her. Luckily she was able to stop herself in time or else a traffic accident will surely occur. Raising her head she saw the owner of the body who stopped her.

Raising her brows slightly annoyed, she asked.

"What? Want to stop me too?
(￢_￢)"

Spade who was just watching a moment ago, after seeing Camille suddenly run, gave him a start. Why? He doesn't know himself why? It's just that after seeing her run, he somehow felt that if he let her go, she will never come back.

He will lost her again, and not even a second later, he had found himself in front of Camille and stopped her by standing in front of her and not letting her pass.

"Yes." Simple and straightforward answer he answered her. He thought she'll ask him 'why?' but didn't expect that Camille instead replied him with a sneer.

"Hypocrite." She sneered glaring at him with unmasked hurt and hatred, where did it come from? She didn't know.

Camille didn't know why but after seeing this guy, she couldn't help herself but feel bitter and her chest suddenly feeling stuffy. She didn't know what to do, so she could only glare at him.

But, Spade still stood there not moving, seemingly not affected to Camille's glares which is full of hurt and hatred and that was unceasingly thrown at him. But on the contrary this guy was already at loss, because he didn't know what he did that made Camille hate him like this.

But, he didn't know that Camille herself, didn't even know why she was acting like this too.

[Brother Gi...] Duze who has a clear view of everything couldn't help but feel sad for them, after all, he is the only one who knows the truth, that this two was separated by fate...

Oh no. That's not right. It isn't only those two... But, looking at the others... He knows that everyone, not only them, is being played by this so called 'great and mighty' fate.

Belle looked at Jacob, who is still in front of her. She is clearly angered and seeing him stopping her once again just made her more and more angry.

She was about to explode when she suddenly remembered the past... Hers and their memories together.

' "Oh no!! Sis Selene!! Sis Kallore is boiling hot again!! Come! Come immediately she might explode!! (ｼ;ﾟДﾟ)"

"Natalia!!!! What do you mean I might explode hahh!!? (╯'□')╯︵ ┻━┻"

"Oh no!!! Sis Selene help!! Sis Kallore is after me!!! (((╹д╹;)))"

"Come here you brat!!!"

"(((╹д╹;))) Ahhh!!!"

"*Giggles* run away immediately sis Natalia or else sis Kallore will surely extinguish you to death once she caught you~~ ('ᴖωᴖ｀)"

"Owwww~~~ Baby sis Kisse!! If you have time in reminding me, how about just helping me then!!!~~ (o;TωT)o Ahhh!! Sis Kallore I'm sorry!! Baby sis Kisse help me!!!"

"Sorry sis Natalia, I have my own fight here too~~ (o;TωT)o I can't help you~~ so good luck!! Fighting!! (๑و•̀ω•́)و"

"Noooooo~~!!!! "

"Come here you brat!!!"

"Ahhhhh!!!"

"Tsk. *Sigh* they started fooling around again... "

"Sis, Camilla~~ just let them be~ at least they won't trouble the others anymore right?~~
('ᴖωᴖ｀)" *sneakily spills the bowl of concocted medicine in the plant*

"Hold it- - - You~~. What. do. you. think. you. are. doing--- *eerie vibes~* *eerie vibes*"

"Σ(っ °Д °;)っ Ahh-!!! Sis, Camilla *nervous laugh* I-it's not what you think... I, I... *Slowly backing*"

"Hehehe. *Scary smile*"

"Ahhhhh!!!!! Sis Selene help me!!!!"

•••

"Everyone I'm back~~!"

"_('ཀ'」 ∠) _ Sis Selene... Our Great Sis Selene~~ huhuhu.

" What happen to you? (*'･д･)?"

"_(:ｪ」∠)_ Sis Selene-nee chan~~ "

"Σ( ° △ °|||)!!! What happen to you too?"

"Sis Kallore bullied me!!" / "Sis Camilla bullied me!!"

"Ohh... (¯∇¯٥)"

"Sis Selene, you're finally back~."

"Hmm... I'm back ('ᴖωᴖ｀) so what happened here? Hah~~ "

"Ohh.. it was the same just usual...

Sis Kallore was teased till she became a pot of boiling water ready to explode.

While Sis Natalia continued to tease her, even knowing the consequences, so she was hunted down by Sis Kallore.

While this baby sis Kisse of ours on the other hand has once again, secretly, salvaged and gave her medicines to her plants.

And for the consequences for what she did, I made her drink the whole bowl of her medicine without sweetening it.

That's why the two of them looks like a dead corpse by now."

"∑(￣□￣*||| ohh... That's why... *Chuckle* ('ᴖωᴖ｀) well...

Hmm...

I guess there's still kids who needs a lecturing huh... *creepy smile*"

Natalia and Kisse shuddered.

"Natalia~~ what was this about you teasing Kallore~~ hmm? ('ᴖωᴖ｀)"

" _(☉д☉」∠)_ that-- that Great Sis Selene!! I didn't meant to!! I didn't mean it!!! ｡･ﾟﾟ･(>д<)･ﾟﾟ･｡"

"Hmmm~~ good! Now~~ baby sis Kisse ('ᴖωᴖ｀) what happened to your medicine then~~?? Hmm?"

"That-- I, That-- (o;TωT)o Great Sis Selene!! I'm sorry!! I'll never do it again!!! Huhuhuhu."

"('ᴖωᴖ｀) good~~ now Camilla..."

"(゜-゜) yes, Sis Selene?"

" ('ｰ∀ｰ') *sigh* do you also know what you did wrong?"

"Ermmm yes? ( • _・)? "

"*Sigh*... Your wrong is, you're too mature for your own good!! <(｀^')> you should let loose even a little! You're still young after all, okay???"

"Ok~ （￢з￢ ) "

"*Sigh* and as for you... (☆-ｖ-)"

" Σ(°ロ | "

"Kallore~~ come here
(*,,＾－＾）ノ "

"Σ(っ °Д °;)っ I, ermmm... I'm busy!!!! =͟͟͞͞( •̀д•́) *Run*"

" ε=ε=ε=(~￣▽￣)~ gotcha!!"

" Kallore... Do you know what you did wrong??? ＾－＾ "

"( ＿ ＿)/ hmm... "

"*Sigh* Kallore... I know how you feel... It's really difficult to hold up a person's anger and irritation and all~ I know, because I'm the same... But as the second elder sister, you need to control it because you and I are the role model of our younger sisters..."

"I know... *frustrated sigh* but it's just it's really difficult you know... It's really suffocating and uncomfortable."

" ('ᴖωᴖ｀) Then I'll tell you my tiny little secret then, on how I calm myself when I'm about to outburst. Okay~~? ☆（ゝω●）"

"Really? "

"Of course~~"

"Okay~ Sure!! o(*^▽^*)o "

"So, here it is *whisper* *whisper*"

Belle after returning from her daze state closed her eyes.

" *Mumble* *humming* your head *mumble*~~" Belle was mumbling something, while her eyes close. She seems really into it. Jacob who saw this can't really hear her mumblings so he leaned forward to listen.

But before he could even lean more he saw Belle's close eyes' were leaking with tears and then he heard her voice, no she wasn't mumbling... But she was actually singing.

" Calm, calm, calm your head *choke* and let it cool down... Just sing *sobs* and sing and sing *sobs* and sing and don't forget *chokes* to smile~~ calm--- calm--- huhuhuhu. *Sobs* your head--- hea--- *sobs* and--- *cries*"

(* The song here is "row, row, row your boat" I just change the lyrics...)

She was just singing...

"Let it--- *chokes*"

It was just a childish song...

"Cool down~~"

But, when you hear her sing it...

"And sing..."

Her broken voice that shatters,

"And sing---"

with pain,

"And sing--- *sobs*"

and hurt...

"And siiingg---"

The pain she buried inside of her...

"And don't *chokes* forget~~"

She forced a smile while tears we're falling,

"To smile~~"

...Is finally,

released...

"Sis---

*Sobs*

Selene......"
