Chapter 3 - Murder Mystery And A Bucket Of Chocolate

Don't let them bother you okay, they're just..

Just highschool bullies Akira cut in. And I'm not worried she said adjusting her hoodie. They can only bark and not bite.

Uhh... they do bite actually, just watch your steps so you won't end up like Isabella. Elsie said a distant look flashing through her eyes.

Who's Isabella?

The b!tch you're going to end up like if you do not stay in your lane.

Watch it Kiana! violet snapped.

What your low-life friend is still fragile to know one of your friends jumped off the school's roof.

Enough Kiana, we all Isabella would never do that Elsie said.

Ha! You have Soo much trust in your weakling of a friend. She jumped off the roof because she couldn't survive a little highschool drama, and now she's a vegetable on an abandoned hospital bed.

You see... That's where you're wrong Kiana, Isabella would be back soon and you better focus and try to build your little "fashion" store before the real queen of fashion returns Eli pointedly replied making all colour drain from Kiana's face.

She's.. she's... still alive? How did she survived such a fall? 

No.. no..it can't be, she fell from the last floor.

Akira's pov 

Kiana was reaction really weirdly to the news that this Isabella was still alive. 

Here reaction was more intense than the normal shock you feel after hearing someone miraculously survived a dangerous accident as that fall.

There was something off about her reaction, something I can't place my hands on.

What is Kiana hiding I thought aloud unknowingly.

Huh? What do you mean Luna and Leo responded simultaneously freaking me out.

What do you mean " what's Kiana hiding " Ak violet asked.

I don't know but Kiana seemed so nervous when Eli said she'll be returning soon.

Her reaction was way too intense... I said placing a palm under my jaw.

Maybe you're overthinking things don't you think? Violet said.

Yeah, Kiana might have hated Isabella for being better but I don't think she'll harbor such evil thoughts, she was shocked as everyone at school when she found out the next day.

Oh she wasn't in school when it happened?

No she wasn't.. well she actually left school on that day and returned an hour after we found her in a pool of blord during the general talent training.

Where was she when the incident occurred and how did she know she fell from the last floor I asked.

The isn't any proof that she fell from the last floor Ak, the cameras on that part of the building likely developed a fault so the incident wasn't covered, so no one knows which floor she fell off. Luna said.

Really, Kiana just said that I replied making the entire table fall silent.

Lunch ended with no one saying a thing. We just filled out of the cafeteria and to our different changing rooms to go prepare for fitness class.

Rosevale took the well-being of their students seriously judging from the lineup of activities on the school's curriculum which totally different from that of the normal highschools in the country. Here students are being trained to lead and stand out.

I changed into the provided two piece fitness wear, wore a black mask that covered my entire face and then wore a blue hoodie this time.

I found a huge door with "Gym" written on it, with the help of the map after walking for two minutes. The hum of the sensor whirred softly as the door slid open on it's own. Before she could take a step... 

SPLASH! 

A cold, thick bucket of chocolate syrup drenched her from head to toe. Gasps echoed through the entire gym as students turned to see what had just happened. Majority laughed while some just stared. 

Standing nearby, smirking with a half empty bucket still in hand, was Alan! One of the annoying boys from earlier. 

Akira stood frozen for a second. Everyone bone in her body wanted to flip him like a piece of pancake a rearrange his face with blows, but that meant 3 hours detention for two straight weeks. 

She decided to fight him with something more powerful - The Law. 

You do realize you just violated Rule 7 section C of the student conduct code, right? 

She asked staring coldlyat him through the mask. 

Alan blinked. "What? "

She pulled out her phone, already recording. 

"No student is allowed to set up a physical prank that results in public humiliation involving food substances, especially near gym equipment. She tilted the phone toward the gym's wall where a clearly printed student rules poster was mounted. 

Before Alan could react, Coach Damien, the gruff but fair gym teacher, stepped out from the locker room. He took one look at the chocolate puddle, the bucket in Alan's hand and Akira's soaked form. 

Office. Now. Principal wants a word. 

"But"

Now! 

The crowd went silent. Alan's smirk vanished as be pleading stared at his friends for help. Everyone stared, some with their phones out. Akira still sticky but strangely triumphant, watched him wal

k off in shame. 

From a side of the gym, Violet grinned and gave Akira a proud thumbs up.
