Chapter 2 - Ruthlessness on Display

...Hallway To Dorms...

...The musty hallway to dorms with cobwebs hanging around the corners and fungus growing on the walls...

A silhouette of man leaning on the wall, where the men and women dorms intersect.

She notices, walks past him

"Wait! "

The man shouted, revealing himself under the limited sunlight which is entering through the window nearby.

Man in his early 30's brown haired with stern and rough features covered with scars on his lips and nose.

...

...

She sighed..

"What is it?" and turns to face him

Punches her in the face

"How Devilish Can You BEEEE!!?" 

Her face facing downwards, her nose oozing blood...

In the silent hallway, the sound of dripping blood from her nose.

"F**k" said her while wiping the blood from her nose, her lifeless blue eyes piercing his soul, says,

"What is it?" in a calm voice.

...

...

The man in front of her was Michaelis Aspringer, her teamate, her long time acquaintance, probably the one whom she spoke the most with,

He was looking at her with contempt for the first time, holds her collar,

"Why did you kill herrrr?? Did you...."

Overwhelming emotions take over him...

Tears start to flow over.... 

"Did you really.....had no choice.... ?" he asked wanting to still believe she had a reason.... She must have....

It was the first time for her to see him cry.

Looking at him with blank expression...

"No..." said her with disinterest

In utter disbelief, He said, heavily breathing,

"How can you be...so...heartless?

She did nothing....to you.. she.....

was the most pure...and loving.....

I couldn't....couldn't...even....see her......for the last time.... "

She looks at him, as if looking down on him, holds his hand which is holding her collar and spoke

"Why are you like this? Did you catch some petty feelings?" 

As she say those words, she freed herself from his grasp.

...

...

"What??" he was aghast by her words and looking at her, a woman who shows no ounce of emotion and only  reflects coldness her eyes, as if mocking his feelings.

"We aren't here for that,

We are here to survive."  said her in monotonous bored voice

The voice he had heard thousand times, still felt sick in his stomach at her heartless and ruthless nature.

Finally gaining his senses, he replied,

"Hah! Survive you say! Will you kill me too...

to survive??" He meant to question her but still was afraid of her answer, expecting it to be in negative.

She paused a bit like the answer was obvious.

"Yes, if required to."she replied with no signs of remorse or guilt.

...

...

She sighed heavily and said

"You have wasted my time of training..."

started walking away.

With Michaelis laugh in disbelief

echoing within the hallway, as if even the walls were mortified at this situation.

...Washroom...

...A space just enough to fit one person,...

...A small washbasin beside the lavatory with a mirror cracked on the upper side....

...A flickering bulb on the roof....

Washing hands with a cheap quality soap.

the blood has dried up already on her hands.

"I guess I should just leave it"

Washes face with water, pulls back her  black hair strands of which some are bleached.

Looks at the mirror flickering bulb reveals features of her face,

Fair brown skin,pinkish red eyes reflecting light with a long scar covering whole of her right cheek upto her nose, bangs hiding her forehead, fresh blood underneath her nose and blood stains on her cheek.

...

...

'It's been days since I have last seen my face....'

She thought.

'That was one nice punch..' looking at her nose, remembering...

Sighs deeply

Suddenly nauseous...

Vomits and sits there

'I guess the food served today was stale again...'
