Chapter Three:
The classroom was too joyful.
A few days after the whole situation which had Nagisa attempting to sacrifice himself to kill Squid-Sensei, or Koro-sensei as he was soon after dubbed, the classroom was in too much of a high spirit. Only a few days ago they had almost seen one of their classmates die in an attempt to kill a being that was said to be aiming to destroy them all. Yet just a few days later they were laughing, joking around, and attempting to kill their teacher without a care in the world.
It was wondrous, so much so that after school all she could do was go home and laugh hysterically, deliriously!
Who other than these human teenagers would withstand the pressure of the situation and somehow find a way to deal with everything that was happening in such an amazing way. Only something human could be so wonderful!
Her love of humans just kept growing.
So did her hate for the inhuman though.
Squid-Sensei made her want to like him, just because he was so weirdly human in everything that he did.
It made her want to kill him more than ever. Izaya didn't want to like something inhuman, because if she did that she would change, and she was happy the way she was now. She was above the humans need for evolution – That couldn't change about her. Izaya wouldn't let it, and so she set out to kill him with a lot more vigour than before.
That was why she was helping others by giving her information out, for free.
Ultimately, a lot of the students came to Izaya and Nagisa for information on Squid-Sensei. Even the smallest bit of information could help. That was why Izaya was leaning against a tree, along with Nagisa and one of their fellow classmates as she waited to watch what he would come up with in this assassination.
It would help her gain more information, even if it failed.
"Just as reported, thanks Nagisa, Izaya-chan." The boy, Sugino spoke, turning back to them momentarily.
Izaya mentally went over the information she had on that particular classmate; Sugino Male, 173 cm (5'8") full name Sugino Tomohito, loved baseball but no longer plays because E-Class can't take part in club activities. He was pretty plain all things considered, but he did have a unique way of going about things, which was why Izaya had come along.
"No problem Sugi-chan, don't miss~" Her blood red eyes widened in delight as there was just a tiny bit of doubt that entered the boys eyes before determination set in.
The fact of the matter was this likely wouldn't work. As if a baseball could hit the sensei, when bullets couldn't. It was laughable of an idea, but the difference it provided should have Squid-Sensei give a different type of response, which was what Izaya was there to see.
That and the reaction when her dear classmate ultimately failed.
The boy went into a pitching motion, before releasing the ball, letting it fly toward the squid.
"Good morning! ~" Came the gratingly familiar voice from behind them. Izaya turned around, meeting the 'eyes' of their sensei, "Now show me your best greeting, no mumbling, understand?"
Sugi-chan looked back and forth frantically, as though wondering what had happened.
Izaya just allowed her eye to twitch, almost unnoticeably.
"G-good morning Koro-Sensei" Nagisa replied, his own eyes slightly widened.
"Embedding anti-sensei pellets into a baseball was a fine idea. It is much quieter than a gun, and less likely to draw my attention to it. However, it flew so slowly that I got bored of waiting for it to arrive! Also, touching them directly would have been bad for my health, so I went back to the shed, and grabbed a glove. Then I popped right back over to catch it." With that, Squid-Sensei turned stripped green, "I hope you can kill me, before graduation that is~"
"Squid-Sensei is so mean, teasing us like that~" Izaya purposely made herself look down as if she was sad, her hand in her pocket grasping her Anti-Sensei
Glancing up through her eyelashes, she watched the reaction of Squid-Sensei, who flailed his tentacles about frantically and looked around, stuttering out nonsense about how he wouldn't do it again.
Seemed he needed students to look at him in good light, useful information.
Just as he leaned closer to her, Izaya struck out with her knife. Only to have it stopped just before it broke skin by the same yellow tentacles that had been flailing around in panic only a millisecond ago.
"Nurufufufufu~ You're a tricky one Orihara-chan." Squid-Sensei turned back into stripped form before patting her on the head and heading back toward the school as the bells rang in the background, "I'll see you three in homeroom~"
Izaya just glared, the most irritated she'd been in quite a long time. Being looked down upon like that from such a monster, something inhuman, it was infuriating.
Izaya released her fists, noticing she'd clenched them in her anger.
After which she cooled herself down quickly, not wanting to seem ruffled in any way in front of the audience she had.
"Even though you didn't succeed it was still useful information you found Izaya-san." Nagisa mentioned, picking up on the fact she had felt something negative, even if he didn't really know what was going on internally, "We also learned from your attempt to Sugino. Next time we will have an even better plan and get him."
Nagisa said it, but he wasn't expressive at all.
Izaya wasn't one to show a whole lot of emotions, it would be detrimental toward what she planned for the future. Never mind the fact that most people considered her to be some level of sociopath, and that she didn't feel the full range of emotions.
Yet Izaya got the feeling she was more emotive than Nagisa was normally.
"You're wrong Nagisa; there won't be a better plan for me. This was my best shot, my only real skill even if I'm not all that good…" Sugino looked down at the floor as he spoke, "I was just… Too slow, I'm always too slow and not good enough."
Izaya could feel a twinge of amazement brightening her eyes. Watching her humans deal with issues always made her feel better. This one seemed to have an insecure tendency, not thinking he was good enough, not able to measure himself objectively against other humans.
"Sugi-chan is so human~ You've cheered me up so well, I was really frustrated but ahh, you humans are just so amazing~" Izaya sang under her breath as she skipped up right in front of Sugino, standing less than a foot away from him, "You know Sugi-chan~ Even if you are useless in all skills, you still have value, the other people in the class can step on you to reach the top. Sometimes that is all failures are for, and that's okay, because at least you are at least useful as a stepping stone."
Sugino looked up at Izaya, shocked at what was being said, eyes blanked.
Nagisa was about to step forward as he watched, but was honestly too shocked to do so. Who said something like that to someone when they were obviously having a bad time? It was horrible of her, vicious almost.
Izaya took a step back, smirk curled on her lips, "But hey, maybe I'm wrong about you Sugi-chan. I always love it when humans go against my expectations. See if you can, fight for it. Struggling humans are much more interesting than broken ones anyway~"
With that she pranced off, leaving one persons shattered dreams, and one blue haired boy looking at her back, trying to figure the quasi-informant out.
As she did so, she pulled out her notebook and wrote down her next piece of information which could eventually lead to taking down the Squid.
Weak against student's opinions
.
.
Class went on just as usual. Somehow, as always Squid-Sensei fit in something involving tentacles, then during break he went off somewhere across the world, he'd be back before class started back up.
There was something different though.
Sugi-chan was sitting outside, still with those beautifully pained eyes. Izaya had gotten up, fully intent on seeing him again, only to be stopped by a sharp spike in bloodlust causing her to turn around at full speed and pull out her knife, pressing it against the neck of the person behind her.
Her hair fluttered around her, blocking her vision for just a moment.
Everything settled.
Nagisa was at the tip of her knife.
"Leave Sugino-san alone Izaya-san – He doesn't need you coming around to said horrible things to him again." Spoke the dull tone which belonged to Nagisa, but somehow it was more coated before, intent that she never heard on his tongue before.
"Ohh~ Nagi-kun you are making me so curious. What would you do if I didn't listen to you?" Izaya mocked, pressing her knife harder into the blue haired boy's neck, but not enough to leave a mark.
Nagisa just gave a small smile, but it sent shivers down Izaya's spine.
Abruptly, she pulled the knife away from his neck, flipping it closed and putting it back into her pocket before turning toward Sugino, but not taking a step, opting to just watch him, "You know Nagi-kun, you went against my expectations today. Just because you asked me to, I'll do it. After all, you are one of my beloved humans~"
Suddenly Koro-sensei boomed back into the area, next to Sugino who was eating his food with a depressed continence.
Izaya just watched, listening in to the conversation which was happening in front of her, Sugino giving her a ton of ammunition against himself unintentionally. The insecurity that he felt seemed to have grown, likely a good amount of it due to Izaya's own words.
Sped up shoe sounds hit the edge of her senses, as Nagisa ran outside to his friend. He seemed worried about what Koro-sensei would potentially do to the boy.
Izaya would expect something monster like, hoping against hope that he would finally show something that set him apart from her beloved humans other than looks and abilities.
It wasn't what she got.
A few moments later Sugino had gained self-confidence back, just a few words from the Squid-Sensei bringing confidence into his heart easily as Izaya had taken that chunk away. There was a frustrated narrowing of her eyes, but if left when she thought more about it. Really it just showed how amazing humans were, that he could bounce back like he had.
Perhaps even good enough to exceed her expectations.
Izaya stiffened up as she felt a familiar feeling on top of her head and spun around to see the yellow face of a certain squid.
"I think you owe your classmate an apology." The smile on his face didn't fade, but the words were stern, "Izaya-chan said some horrible things to her fellow classmate, she should make up for it by apologizing then doing something to help him instead. Unless she wants detention for a week straight."
With that, the squid moved away, back to the classroom. Leaving Izaya staring at the two boys nearly twenty feet away from her.
Apologize?
Izaya didn't do apologies, and really what did she do? All she did was give her opinion on something, her view of the world. All she really did was love the humans in front of her.
Yet somehow she felt a bit of something she'd only felt twice before.
Guilt.
Normally even if she was feeling anything like this, she wouldn't act on it. However, that along with the threat of detention which such an inhuman being…
Izaya walked up to them, Nagisa looked at her blankly, but there wasn't much doubt in Izaya's mind that the blue haired boy did not have nice intentions toward her in that moment. Sugino however, just looked in the other direction, eyes sad, but no where near as broken as they had been before.
"I won't apologize, because I'm not sorry about what I said. It is my world view, and in it all humans are useful and amazing for at least something. You should be grateful I thought you were useful, however despite what I said you did exceed my expectations." Izaya paused for a moment, thinking over how best to put it, "I guess that means you can be one of the people who step, rather than the one being stepped on. If you need help with one of your assassinations I will offer it free of charge, and free of my speaking as well, if Sugi-chan wants."
That was the closest thing to an apology Izaya had ever given someone in her life.
She walked off, pulling out her phone as she went.
This situation reminded her too much of the guilt she felt when faced with an injured, stabbed Shinra who had taken a knife for her. It left an itching feeling within her, to check in on her only friend. Something she normally wouldn't give into, but it had been a long time.
Maybe talking to Shinra would make her feel more like herself again, something she hadn't really felt since this whole thing started.
End Chapter:
Authour Note: This chapter is mostly to show case some slow character development and dialogue between Izaya and a few of the classmates, as well as the start of the interactions between Nagisa and Izaya. Also, can I just say the new episodes of Ass-Class and Durarara this week - Amazing! Izaya being a troll, and Koro-sensei in that situation... Even though I've read Durarara novels completely it still made me all hyped, and the same thing with being completely caught up with Ass-Class manga.
I got so many wonderful reviews and it made me really happy and hyped to write the next chapter. Although I do feel like I fell a bit short of what I WANTED for this chapter, that could just be because I'm being my normal freakishly paranoid self and feel like I forgot something.
Review Responses:
EashaChan: It's been pretty hard even three chapters in to write for Izaya in this place. I don't think that Koro-sensei would put up with Izaya fucking with the class, so it's got to be worked on making her less extreme in her evil trolling ways. Still, it won't all disappear~ Izaya is Izaya after all
Guest #1: Gender bent Izaya is best girl~ A bit of action for her this chapter, even against Koro-sensei! Originally I didn't plan to have her do anything like that, but she was there to gain information and measure his reactions so it fit in pretty perfectly.
Maistyria: Don't recall if I personally responded to your review, so I'll do it here again if so~ God Izaya is such a difficult little troll. Will forever be one of my favourite characters though, although I'm not sure if I can catch the personally well enough. Hope I don't disappoint!
MinRisa91: I haven't had her plan anything yet, but she will eventually next fear~ It is her area of expertise after all, especially during the little trip into city. I have plans for that ;p Also, Karma and Izaya are pretty similar huh? I got that feeling especially when Karma said what job he wants in the future. They are too alike ~
Thank you to everyone that reviewed even if I didn't respond, your review brightened my day and makes me excited to write the next chapter. Thanks also for the many people who followed and favourited. This story got a lot more attention than I thought it would so far, although no complaints! xD
Read and Review!
