Hello, I am still a newbie writer so please be tolerant! My name is Satsuki, 15 years old, learning English (It's actually my third language) and therefore writing stories.
About this fanfiction
It's going to be about Karma and his hardships (made up by me, of course). The manga doesn't really focus on him so much and he's my favourite character so I want to write about him. Also, I'm kind of a sadist so it's gonna be angsty XD.
Note: When I do a horizontal line, it indicates the time difference - like few hours/ days later or change of POV (Point of view)
Alright, shall we begin?
"Akabane" It read. My house plate, I mean.
I stood before an enormous mansion in the outskirts of this town, dully taking out the keys and opening the doors. I went into this dark place to get welcomed by nothing at all. My parents were working after all. They didn't have the time to stay here and take care of their only son with the large sum of money they have made by working overseas for four years straight. Wow, it has been so long already? I was surpised I still remembered their faces.
Well, whatever. Being on my own all the time was fine. I could do whatever I wanted. I could go wherever I wanted. And there was noone to nag me about the chores or anything else. It was easy, they just sent me money every week so that I could buy what I needed. No need to call. Coz I was 'the genious', mature and understanding son capable of living all by myself since my 12, wasn't I? And it's not like I was worth their attention anyway.
Walking up the stairs, I headed to my room. It was spacious though more or less empty if I didn't count the books, bed and table in. Throwing my bag onto the floor, I burried myself into the bed.
The class was fun. The kids tried to kill that octopus teacher by making him eat some strange food that even a moron wouldn't dare touch. Of course he did eat it but the only thing it did was crook his face. And while he was talking with them, teaching them about the poisons, I started shooting. Sure it startled both him and the others but it was fun as everyone else joined me.
PE was fine too. Karasuma-sensei made us run throught the mountain while being tied to someone else. I got Nagisa-kun as my partner and hell, he was slow. But that's understandable, considering his... size. In the end, we made it.
I grinned. I liked that place. Much more than this empty prison. And that's why I stood up and took some random book, going out. Anywhere was better than here. Maybe I could go to the park. It was only three p.m. and there was still daylight. Considering it was Octomber, I had like four more hours until it would get completly dark. Good.
It turned out that I have rushed things too much. Autumn was a rather cold season and a shirt with a single blazer just wasn't warm enough. Having read the book, which was about Japanese history by the way, for almost three hours, my eyes got tired.
I stood up and started walking without having a certain aim in my mind. I looked up at the cloudy sky. It was going to rain. And just as I predicted, it did.
Rain was nice. Tender, washing away everything that's heaving your mind. Closing my eyes, I let it fall on me and tried to concentrate on the feeling of drops falling on me. It made me remember that I was still alive, still capable of feeling. It actually has been some time since I felt something.
I was soaked and so was my book. In no way did I mind. I hated it. My parents gave it to me when I was 9. Throwing it somewhere to the grass, I smiled.
The streets were empty, no people walking around. Of course they wouldn't, what kind of idiot would go out in this kind of weather? Except for me, that is. And even though I knew it was stupid, I still stood there and enjoyed the rain.
Cold.
Yeah, I was used to it. Cold nights spent alone. Cold rain which was now my only confidant. The me who got so accostumed to the cold that it became the very part of my existence.
I wonder when it was that I became like this?
Eight o'clock and I just finished taking a shower. My homework was still waiting to be done though I knew I wouldn't do it. Not today. I just didn't feel like it. Actually the only thing I did feel up to was to sleep.
Screw homework. I was gonna sleep.
"KARMA-KUN! WHY HAVEN'T YOU DONE YOUR HOMEWORK?! DO YOU KNOW HOW SAD SENSEI IS? AND HE DID HIS BEST TO THINK OF IT!"
"Karma-kun," Isogai-kun sighed with a nervous smile.
"I think you just started an hour enfilled with tears and complaints of Koro-sensei." Nagisa scratched his head.
And I just couldn't think of any other response but to give him a smile. One that would say that I didn't regret anything and that I was enjoying it a lot. Maybe I was. But I didn't feel any joy at all.
Alright, this is the first chapter. I know there's no action going on and it's kind of boring but don't worry! I will do my best to make this fanfiction good enough for my readers! Please tell me what you like or don't like so that I know how to improve. Also, I have to confess that I'm not very good with time so it might take me some days to update. Sorry.
And by the way, I think it's obvious to you what's wrong with Karma. Try guessing!
Love you guys, bye!
