Chapter 8 - Decoy“It’s almost been a week since we had lunch together. I had been busy in the hospital. Strangely, a lot of dead bodies had been found lately. The CSI called me in to perform surgery on these dead bodies to find out the cause of their deaths.” Takamina said.
“Sure.. There’s even a dead body beside you, fondling with your fingers.” Rena replied, signifying Maeda who was playing with Takamina’s fingers.
“Were you even listening to my topic in the first place?” Takamina questioned.
“Rena.. It seems like somebody is fondling with your fingers too.” Mayu giggled at Jurina who was playing with Rena’s fingers. Rena then looked at Jurina who replied with her cat like smile before looking back at Mayu.
“I gave up on resisting this a long time ago. Now I just let her do whatever she wants.” Rena then shrugged her shoulders.
“Rena-sama, I think you should show Jurina-sama some of your affection. She seems to like you a lot.” Yuki said.
Upon hearing this statement, Jurina immediately hugged Rena tightly. “That’s right, Rena-chan. Show me some affection!”
“Hey.. You’re hugging me too tight. I can’t digest my melon pan properly.” Rena complained.
“What about you, Yuki? You should show Mayu some affection too.” Kojiharu then said jokingly, causing Mayu to blush.
Yuki then smiled at Kojiharu’s statement and ruffled Mayu’s hair. “I already am.”
Mayu instantly turned tomato after hearing this statement.
“Would you look at this little red mice!” Yuko teased.
“S-Stop teasing me!” Mayu voiced out loud. Yuki then giggled at Mayu’s shyness and ruffled her hair again.
Kojiharu who was looking at the intimacy of Yuki and Mayu, suddenly voiced out. “Hey, Yuki. Do you want to come to my house and have a little chat sometime?”
“Well sure, Haruna-sama. But for what purpose?” Yuki questioned.
“Girl stuff. I noticed that you have very good fashion sense. So I may want to ask you for some advice or maybe get a little tip?” Kojiharu answered.
“A model getting advice from a vampire? That’s a new one.” Maeda sounded.
“Nobody’s perfect, Acchan. Besides, it’s better to get different point of views from different individuals, right Yuko?” Kojiharu asked. Yuko remained silent as she was busy glaring into Yuki’s face. Yuko then finally voiced out.
“Nyan Nyan, I don’t want any blood sucking creature to be alone with you at home. I just can’t help but to worry.”
Yuki then grinned “What’s the matter, Yuko-san? Afraid that you might lose Haruna-sama to me? No worries. I do not perform barbaric acts such as to steal your girlfriend from you. I’m not a werewolf.”
“Are you saying that werewolves steal other person’s girlfriends?” Yuko glared at Yuki.
“No. I’m just saying that werewolves are barbaric.” Yuki answered with a smile.
“Enough fighting, both of you! How can both of you still be able to argue so much even though you both had been through so much together?” Rena questioned.
“Well, Yuko-san started it. Haruna-sama invited me to her house and I just accepted the offer. She was the one who started the argument.” Yuki explained while pointing her finger at Yuko.
“How dare you point that bat finger of yours at my face! Of course I will be worried with a vampire staying alone in my girlfriend’s house!” Yuko shouted.
“You’re a vicious beast, and yet you stay alone with your girlfriend. So I don’t see the problem with a vampire being there as well.” Yuki said.
“That’s not the point here!” Yuko shouted again.
“Yuko! I’m just inviting Yuki over for a little chat. Why are you so jealous?” Kojiharu asked.
“W-What do you mean jealous? W-Who’s being jealous here?” Yuko stuttered.
“Yuko, you sure do not know how to lie, do you? You’re stuttering a lot.” Mayu said.
“Err… Nobody interested in the dead body news anymore?” Takamina sounded after a long moment of silence.
All of a sudden, a tall figure appeared in front of their table and started a conversation. “It’s been awhile, Yuko-san.”
“Sado!?” Yuko said with a shocked expression.
“Shh!! Yuko-san, this is the public. Please call me Shinoda.”
Rena’s SPTdex sounded.
Beep! Beep!
1 supernatural being identified
Species : Werewolf
Type : Beta
Threat : Extremely high“The Beta wolf?!” Rena’s voice echoed into all of their ears causing them to gasp in shock.
Sado then looked into Yuki’s direction and showed a frown. “ Young lady, you smell like a…”
“Like a vampire?” Yuki answered.
Sado then immediately looked back at Yuko. “You’re hanging out with a vampire now?”
“Don’t put me on the same level with that bat. I’m here because of my girlfriend.” Yuko explained.
Sado then looked at Kojiharu and smiled. “ So you’re Kojima Haruna.”
Kojiharu then replied with a gasp “H-How did you know my name?”
“Before that, let me introduce myself first. My name is Sado, using the human name Shinoda Mariko, the Beta wolf.” Sado introduced.
“Please do not start an argument with me. I’m tired with Yuko-san alone. I can’t stand another one.” Yuki warned Sado.
“So Shinoda, what could you be doing here? You’re not still carrying your orders, are you?” Yuko asked with a frown.
“What orders?” Takamina asked.
Sado then sat herself on an empty chair and explained. “You see, I originally had an order from the Alpha wolf to eliminate Kojima Haruna.”
Upon hearing this statement, everybody stood up from their seats except for Yuko. Rena was literally reaching for her gun which she hid in her bag.
“Wait. Please let me finish my speech.” Sado said.
“After hearing your statement? I don’t think so.” Maeda shot a glare at Sado.
“Hey, come on guys. Relax and sit down. Let her finish.” Yuko convinced.
Once everybody settled down a little and sat back down, Sado finally continued. “I said that I originally had orders to eliminate Kojima Haruna, but I’m not going to do it. I got into a little argument with the Alpha because of this.”
“Our whole clan had arguments with the Alpha before. In fact, none of us like her as the leader at all. She’s like a dictator. The reason why all of you are still obeying her is because all of you are too afraid to go up against her. You guys need to learn to stand up for yourselves. Take a look at me. Free from dictatorship!” Yuko explained.
“I get what you mean, Yuko-san. This is why I’m on your side now. I want to stand up for myself too. So I’m not going to attack the girl. Don’t worry.” Sado said.
“Then what are you doing here?” Yuko asked.
“I’m here to warn you, Yuko-san. The Alpha had already sent out Team Habu and they’re heading towards here right now.” Sado said.
Yuko then suddenly started laughing. “Team Habu? You mean Mayuge’s team? They’re a joke! Basically only Mayuge is the elite one in the team. The others are rubbish!”
“You seem pretty confident about this, Yuko.” Jurina said.
“Well, I think that even Takamina could kill them with her scalpels.” Yuko said before bursting into laughter again.
“Yuko-san, this is serious.” Sado said.
Yuko immediately stopped laughing and sighed. “Mayuge used to be a nice girl. It was because of this new Alpha that changed her personality so much. Now she’s like the Alpha’s loyal servant.”
“So, what do we do now?” Mayu questioned.
“Right. So, Takamina, Mayu and Nyan Nyan go home first. They’ll be here anytime. You too, bat. You can go home and sleep. It’s still day time.” Yuko said while shooing Yuki off.
At that time, Kojiharu immediately clinged her arm on Yuki’s arm. “Well, since Yuko had asked for you to go home, it means that you’re not really needed here. So, why don’t you come to my house now and have a chat?”
Yuko immediately changed her mind. “Alright. You stay here, bat. You don’t have to go.”
“Come on, Yuko! All of you here are powerful enough to fend off the so called Team Habu since you said that they’re so weak. I’m just going to have a little chat with Yuki, that’s all.” Kojiharu said.
“Alright, fine! But make sure when I come home, this bat is gone.” Yuko warned.
“Acchan, will you be alright?” Takamina asked Maeda in a worried tone.
Maeda then caressed Takamina’s face “Minami, didn’t you remember that zombies are near invincible? Don’t worry, ok? Wait for me at home.”
Soon, Takamina, Mayu, Kojiharu and Yuki left the scene.
“Sado, you’re staying too? Are you not afraid to be branded a betrayer?” Yuko asked.
“I’m already on your side, Yuko-san.” Sado explained, as 4 girls appeared in front of them.
“Well, Yuko-san, it’s been a week since we last met. You seemed prepared for our visit. It seems like someone leaked this information out. You even brought some friends along to play. Well, I brought my team to play too.” Mayuge said.
“This is Team Habu? They look funny. Look at her eyebrows.” Jurina laughed at Mayuge’s thick eyebrows.
“Sado! You’ re betraying us as well?” Mayuge shouted.
“I’m not betraying anybody! I’m merely standing up for myself! You should too, Mayuge. I know you never liked the Alpha.” Sado said.
“Shut up! Where’s the girl, Yuko?” Mayuge shouted.
“She’s not here. If you want to hunt, try us!” Rena shouted back.
Mayuge then grinned, “Alright, then. Let’s go to a more silent place, shall we?”
All of them then reached an abandoned building a little far away. It was the perfect place to battle.
“Shall we have a team battle, Yuko?” Mayuge proposed.
“We have 5 members over here and you have 4.” Yuko said.
“It’s ok. I’ll sit this one out.” Sado said.
“Mayuge, you’re not serious about having a team battle, do you? Everyone knows that your team members are weak.” Yuko dissed.
“Shut up, Yuko! We’ll see about that very soon!” Mayuge shouted.
“I’ll go first.” Maeda volunteered.
A brown furred wolf walked up towards her and stated snickering. “Such a cute girl.. Too bad I’m going to mess up your face a little!”
Maeda literally replied with a cute smile. The wolf then leaped towards her, attempting to crush its paw on Maeda. She dodged to the side and managed to grab hold of the wolf’s shoulder. Maeda then opened her mouth wide to reveal her razor sharp fangs and closed in for a bite. That bite literally almost tore off the wolf’s shoulder. The wolf howled in pain as blood continued flowing nonstop from its wounded shoulder. It then collapsed on the floor, unconscious with a huge amount of blood loss. Mayuge’s mouth was pried open from that scene.
“I don’t think I want to mess with her anymore.” Yuko said.
“I only used fifty percent of my biting strength. I never knew it was enough to knock out such a huge wolf.” Maeda shrugged her shoulders.
“What do you mean!? You almost tore its shoulder apart!” Rena said shockingly.
This time, a yellow furred wolf came up front.
“Ooooo…. Let me try! Let me try! Rena-chan, I wanna go!” Jurina excitedly shouted.
Rena nodded her head and said. “Alright. But please control your power.”
Jurina then went up front and looked at the wolf. As Jurina looked closer at the wolf, she pouted and looked back at Rena. “Nee, Rena-chan.. Do you want to go? This wolf seems very weak.”
Upon hearing this, the wolf got enraged and pounced towards her. “Why you little-“
Jurina immediately silenced the wolf with a shockwave that sent it crashing into the wall.
This time, Mayuge pushed a black furred wolf front as Rena took the stage. The wolf then laughed at Rena. “A human!? You must be joking-“
Rena immediately silenced the wolf with two of her gunshots hitting both its legs, causing it to fall on the floor, paralyzed. “Wow, you were right, Yuko. They ARE weak.” Rena shockingly said.
“T-That’s not fair! She wasn’t even ready yet!” Mayuge said.
This time, Yuko walked up front and cracked her fingers and neck. “It’s just you now, Mayuge.”
Mayuge then looked at her watch and started grinning evilly. “It has already been an hour. It seems like I don’t have to fight at all. The REAL hunt has already begun.”
Yuko immediately pounced on Mayuge, pinning her down. “What are you talking about, Mayuge? The Alpha sent your team for the hunt!”
Mayuge started laughing all of a sudden. “Oh, no Yuko-san. My team is merely just a decoy to bring your friends away from the girl.” Yuko’s eyes widened in horror from Mayuge’s statement.
“What!? I didn’t know about this!” Sado voiced out.
“That’s because the Alpha had already suspected your betrayal. You were not informed of this plan. Now it’s too late to save the girl.” Mayuge explained.
“You tricked us! That was the real reason you insisted on the team battle. To waste our time here!” Yuko growled.
Kojiharu’s house“So, Haruna-sama, you invited me here to talk about fashion tips, right? What is it that you would like to know?” Yuki questioned.
“Well… Let’s put that aside for now. Let’s talk about you first.” Kojiharu said.
“Me? What’s there to talk about me, Haruna-sama?”
“You have been keeping something to yourself, don’t you?”
At this time, Yuki seemed flustered a little. “I’m sorry, Haruna-sama. I’m not sure what are you talking about.”
“Yuki, look. You can’t lie in front of me. I can basically see through your thoughts. You know what I am talking about.”
Yuki faced the floor, silent, not wanting to look into Kojiharu’s eyes. Kojiharu then started the conversation. “So what are you going to do with Mayu, Yuki?”
“I-I’m not sure about this either.”
“You have to explain this matter to her before it’s too late. You know how she feels about you. She likes you.”
“Yes. I’m aware of her feelings towards me. This is the sole reason why I’m not sure of what to do.”
"Yuki, Mayu is like a sister to me. I don’t want to see her get hurt from this matter. You need to act fast.”
“Don’t worry, Haruna-sama. Give me some time to figure things out a little.”
“I’m glad you will, Yuki.” Kojiharu nodded her head.
“Let me excuse myself to the toilet for a moment.” Yuki said as she walked herself to the toilet.
As soon as Yuki entered the toilet, a loud banging is heard furiously on the entrance door as a voice screamed out in fear just outside the door. “Help! Let me in! Let me in! A wolf is chasing me!”
Without a moment of hesitation, Kojiharu rushed towards the the door and opened it. A girl then rushed into the house and slammed the door tight before locking it. she then fell down on the floor, panting crazily and shivering in fear. Kojiharu lifted her up and brought her towards the sofa to sit her down.
“Who are you? What happened?” Kojiharu asked.
“M-My name i-is A-Akimoto S-Sayaka.. A-A wolf was c-chasing m-me…” the girl finally answered, but still shivering in fear.
“What kind of wolf?” Kojiharu asked.
“It has fur of gold with glowing red eyes.” The girl answered.
“Golden fur? Red eyes? I think Yuko told me about this before. It must be the Alpha wolf. Alright. Stay here and you’ll be safe.” Kojiharu said to the girl still shivering in fear. During that time, Kojiharu’s phone rang.
“Moshi Moshi! Kojiharu desu.”
“Nyan Nyan! Where are you? Are you alright? Are you hurt?” Yuko sounded from the other side of the phone.
“No. I’m at home now. But I let a girl into the house.”
“You did what!?”“She said that a wolf with gold fur and red eyes was chasing her. I think it’s the Alpha wolf.”
“What’s her name?”“She said that she’s Akimoto Sayaka.”
Yuko immediately became silent for a short moment.
“Where’s the bat, Nyan Nyan?”“She’s in the toilet now.”
“Alright. Nyan Nyan, I want you to get out of the house now.”“But the Alpha wolf is roaming outside!”
“Nyan Nyan! Akimoto Sayaka’s real name is Choukoku! She’s the Alpha wolf!”Chapter 8 - Decoy
