Chapter 2

MARCIA'S POV

"I'm all done. Let's make this count. My first and last prank for this year." I gave my friends a thumbs up. Sara and Donovan seems to hate the idea but they know they can't say anything to stop whatever I'm doing. "But she's..." I shut Donovan up and dragged them both away from the lockers. The familiar clicking of heels made its way towards the the almost empty hallways.

"We're gonna die. I know it." Sara worried about the mess she's in. "Don't worry. I'm taking full responsibility." I smirked when Erika stopped in front of her locker. She looked at her phone before opening the obviously rigged locker door. Erika was calling someone when the trap I constructed triggered and every single disgusting liquid are now on her face, hair and body. She froze as I was laughing all I might in the shadows.

"I'll call you back." I can hear her as she hang up her phone and slammed the locker door. Little did she know that once she do that, a bucket of feathers pouring on top of her body, making her look like a human chicken. "We are so dead." Donovan was about to cry. "I know. There goes our social life." Sara was already sobbing. For me, it's a way to welcome a new year of school.

"Erika?!" Yelled her VP and PR. "What in the world happened to you?!" Asked Suzanna, the PR. I watched as Erika ignored her friends and walked towards the gym. She's probably going to have a shower there. I decided to go to class while keeping the humour to myself. When we walked in, all eyes were on us. Well, I don't blame them, they perfectly knew who I am and there's no doubt they are thinking that it's my prank.

"Did you heard? The student council president was the first victim for this year. That prankster has some balls to tricked the president like that." I smirked. They are all talking about me huh? How nice of them. "Rest in peace for that person who dare to tricked the princess." Rest in peace? That's not right. "Yea, only god knows what Erika will do after this." Somehow I feel a little bit worried about myself. Maybe, just maybe I overdid it.

I flinched when the classroom door were slide open revealing Erika and her posse walking inside. Erika's eyes were on me the moment she entered. If those eyes could shoot daggers right now, I'll be dead. But, seeing her in her gym clothes and tying her hair in a mess bun remind me of a goddess. I was surprised when the VP and PR watching me like a hawk as well. Damn these girls. I messed up with the wrong group of girls huh.

"We're going to die. I know we will." Donovan was scared for his life. Why are they so afraid of this little girl. Yes she looks creepy with her stoic expression, looking at me with those beautiful glaring orbs. Wait, did I just said beautiful? "I'm sure our club will be disbanded now. There's no doubt at all." Sara stated something I miss. The club... SHIT! THE CLUB! Why didn't I thought this through! It's too late now. What should I do to fix this?! What?! God if you're there laughing at me, tell me how to fix this matter!

I ant believe I just begged for help. I chuckled. "What's so funny miss Hanson?" I didn't even noticed the class started. "Nothing miss Laury." I replied while pretending to be listening. "Is that so?" Shit! She see through me. I noticed Erika looking up to her while shaking her head lightly and automatically miss Laury ignored me. "Focus miss Hanson." I nodded and kept my focus watching Erika's demeanour. Doesn't she have any anger in her? That's impossible.

The school day went well for me. But when it's lunch time, I was thinking it will probably be the moment Erika take her revenge on me. Surprisingly, she went to have her lunch with her friends and that's it. The revenge never came. She smiled like nothing happened this morning. She talk and listened to everyone who went to their table. Is that why some of the guys call her an angel?

She cared for her friends and all but does she really have that huge sense of patience? There's no way someone could even proceed their daily life after what I did. I just humiliated her in front of the whole school for goodness sake! I sighed as I eating my burgers. "Whoa relax man. You'll eat the wrapper if you continue doing so." I placed my half eaten burger down and chugging down the soda I bought.

"I can't live like this knowing she's not even angry at me for pranking her." Both Sara and Donovan putting their 'here we go again' face. "Look at them and look at us. Why do you think she could care less about us?" I was about to replied Donovan's question when a familiar voice greeted us. "Hello." We all looked up to Kay and Suzanna. "The president wanted to see you all."

Suzanna being her friendly self again. I gulped down my saliva knowing this could be the last lunch I could ever go with my friends. "Now." Kay said nonchalantly. I stood up and followed the minions towards their boss's table. Sara and Donovan followed us closely. Now that I actually seeing her this close, she actually has quite impeccable looks. I wonder if she's single or seeing someone now. Wait! That's not why I'm here.

"Sit. All of you." We did and we actually came face to face with the school Iron Lady. "What you've done this morning will not be forgotten. As you may know, your club will be disbanded if you can't fulfil a few of my request on time." Oh... she's playing that game huh. "Miss Laury informed me that you actually an exceptional martial artist. Is that correct?" I nodded. I can't deny that when my brother force me to take a martial art class when I was 15.

"A black belt, correct?" I nodded again. Erika smile. "My request, if you can beat me in a martial arts showdown, you can have your club and this morning matter will be forgotten. I will not state it in your student records." Beating her in a martial art showdown? Seriously? This fragile looking creature want to fight me?!

"Alright. I'll be there." I said while Erika smile.

"I still don't think this is a good idea. You're up against Erika for goodness sake. She's a martial artist genius!" Way to go Sara for crushing my hopes and dreams for defeating this princess. Anyway, seeing her in her shirts and shorts makes me wonder... how big is her knockers? I didn't even realised it was bouncier than ever. "Focus please. I know her breast is exceptional but that's not the point. The point is for you to stay alive." Donovan surprising serious about this.

Sara finishing up bandaging my hands and patted my side as she pushing me into the middle of the practice mat. Erika tied her hair in a high ponytail and smiled while walking towards me. "Any last words?" She suddenly asked. Who, me? I pointed at myself. "It's safe to say, I won a few championship in my time." I showed her my position. She stood up straight, looking at me. "I know. I've read your files. Too bad you have such bad records. You could be graduated by now."

Don't mind her Marcia. She's trying to get into your head. That's her tactic I guess. She didn't even bother to bandaging her hands up. More reason to beat the crap out of this bitch. I decided to attack first when she seems to be distracted by something. Bystander gasped when I, the school's troublemaker going to bruise this princess up!

Little did I know she actually manage to grabbed my fist. Without a care, she grabbed my arm and flipped me over her back to the floor without using much energy. What the fuck! "Never underestimate a girl that came from a prominent family that constantly being targeted by assassins." She said before letting my arm go. Assassins?! By now I know everyone are laughing at me. When I looked up, she was cracking her knuckles like it's no big deal for her.

Bitch! I got up and took a deep breath before closing my eyes and focusing myself to the fight. She's a talented martial artist I give her that. But, can she handle something I learned from my sensei? I smirked before opening my eyes, seeing her smiling at me. God she's beautiful. I ran towards her with such speed and while she focus on my speed, I slide between her legs and grabbed both ankle. I pushed it back and watched her fell face first on the floor. While she was in pain from the impact, I grabbed the back of her neck and turned her over. I smiled before punching her beautiful face with my fist.

I was worried when her nose started to bleed. "ERIKA!" Kay yelled but Suzanna hold her down. "Nice punch. I never expected you to be so violent." She said while wiping her bleeding nose. I released her neck and smiled. "What I do for survival." I got off her body and waited for her to get up. She looked at her bloody hand while chuckling away. "This is fun." She said before lunged towards me. I didn't even saw her hands were already around my neck.

"My mother likes to call this as Edvina Suplex." She said before releasing one of her hands from wrapping my neck, to my back. She actually lifted me up upside down and slammed my body on the practice mat like I'm some kind of meat. I heard something crack but not sure which part of my body does. I was speechless and surprised at the same time. Where did she get all those energy she been using? She's far from the girly princess image I had on her before. She's actually a tough girl!

I can't moved when I felt slight pain around my shoulder. What the actual fuck?! I can't moved at all. Ugh! The pain! Kay looked down on me with her wide smile. "5... 4..." she started the countdown! I need to get up! The club's future is in this fight! I need to get up. "2.." I screamed and stood on all two. Erika was surprised to see me up herself. "That's little twist didn't bring you down?" She sighed.

"Geez lady. That for a little prank? What are you?" I joked while trying to fix my twisted shoulder. I screamed when I manage to get my bones where it suppose to be. I ball up my fist and placed them under my chin waiting for her next attack. She looked at me over her shoulder with her ice cold stared. "I have no choice then." I noticed her nose started to bruised up but still, she look amazingly hot.

"Caught you dreaming again." She said before sending her high kick on my head. Thank God my reflex were quick enough to deflect her hard kick. If that hits my head, I'll be dead by now. Somehow I can feel her eyes were dead. It tells me she's been in worst situation before. What can be more worst while having everything in the world? I was not in focus when she manage to kick my guts and made me fell on my butt. She took a deep breath and looking up to me.

"Get up." She said before running towards me with her punches. I grabbed her wrist and pushed her back. Using one of my hands to balance my weight, I swing a kick to her right side. I smirked when she stopped moving a little. I stood up on both legs and give it all. It was my kick to her head that made her fell on the floor, facing down. I stepped on her back and placing some pressure on it. "ENOUGH! You win." Kay yelled and pushed my feet away from her friend's back.

I don't have a slight idea that my kick actually make her vomit from her mouth. "The club will not be disbanded." Was all Kay said while helping Erika up and with Suzanna. I watched them walked out of the gym, carrying a very injured Erika. "You're... going... to die..." was all Donovan said when he pointed at a guy who looks just like Erika standing by the door looking at me. The guy turned his back to me and walked out of the door. The other bystander looked at me with pity in their eyes.

"That's Erika's little brother, Merlin. He's not happy man." Nice going Donovan Shit, am I in more deep trouble now?

"Good luck Marcia." Said one of my female classmate while laughing at my misery. I slammed the locker door and sighed heavily. "She was the one who challenged me!" I said out loud. Everyone in the hallways turned mute and looked at me like I'm a crazy girl. "She did but you don't have to hit her like she's a man." Sara and Donovan showed themselves behind me. "What am I suppose to do? It is a fight. All I want is to win and she was good at deflected my attack. I didn't know what happen at the last part. I just kick her hard."

I explained. "Seriously? You didn't noticed she was flinching while holding her side before you kick her on the head?" Donovan making sure. I nodded. Wait, holding her side? "Wait, holding her side? What do you mean?" Sara sighed. "She was holding her side after you manage to kick her right side. She was in pain but didn't say anything I thought you would noticed that when she didn't stopped your attack." Sara explained. That bitch! She was hurting but still challenging me to a duel?!

"I think I should apologise before going home." Sara crossing her hands on her chest. "You think?! You should Marcia! She's at the nurses office. Go now. We saw her friends walking out of there but no Erika. She's probably still inside." Donovan said while pushing my back. They are forcing me to go huh? I sighed and just obliged just for this time. I am nervous when I stood in front of the nurses office door. What should I say when I see her? Should I say hello?

I lost my train of thought when the door was being opened from the inside. "Oh! Marcia. Are you here for Erika?" Asked the Nurse Emily. I smiled at her. She's a young nurse that just transferred here last year. We had a little fun while inside her office too. I scratch the back of my head and nodded. "She's inside. Do behave. She's a Larove after all. What you did was unacceptable." I sighed while looking down. "I know." Emily let me in and she closed the door while she stepping out.

I didn't see her anywhere. I was hoping for her to be laying on the bed, moaning or something. "Not enough you're a troublemaker, you're a peeping tom now too?" A voiced startled me. I was beyond surprised when Erika are shirtless. "I ... I... oh god.." she seems to not be aware of the situation now. Her breast are the most magnificent human body I ever laid eyes on. She's such a busty woman! That's for sure!

But something caught my eyes. Her whole stomach was bandaged up and I can see her right side bleeding through the bandages. Is that my doing? It is huh. Damn Marcia. You just hurt a woman! "Is that my doing?" I asked. She looked down on her stomach. "Nah. Old wound. I forgot about this. I didn't feel any pain but your kick remind me of it."

"Old wound?" Erika smiled as she put on a robe. "I'm sorry. For everything. I didn't know about it. I'm sorry." Erika laughed as she sat on the bed. "I don't mind at all. I'm the one who challenged you after all." I watched her reading a file instead of resting. "Why are you insist on working instead of resting your wound?" Erika sighed. "Because I'm bored laying around doing nothing. Beside, I used to it. The pain I mean."

She looked up. "Did you find an advisor?" I looked away. I can't tell her I don't know about that. I'm waiting for Rose's decision. "I take that as a no. You have 3 more days." Was all she said. Even after I beat her up, she still a snob, power craze bitch. "Are you talking bad about me?" She asked while looking at me. "You shouldn't say shitty things about me. I've been lenient about your club and all." I looked up when her cleavage is showing.

"My body is too much for you?" She joked. "Shut up! We're not done. I know I'm not capable of pranking anyone anymore, but I have my ways. Beware princess. I'll make you rue the day you trick me into bashing your face and make me look like the bad person." She chuckled at my ranting. "You want to challenge me, hag?" That pierced through my heart. "Hag? THATS IT! It's on!" Erika closed the file she was reading.

"Oh it is so on! But remember, if you prank me or anyone else, your club, your grade and your records will be affected." I froze and looked away. "What about your end?" I asked. "Hmmm. If I lost my patience, I'll walk in my bikini all over the school the whole day." I covered my sudden bleeding nose from view. What is this, anime?! Jesus! Probably the hit from her kick earlier make my head melted.

"Oh... are you fantasising it already?" She laughed. "It's a deal. Right?" I grinned. "I'll make sure to make you go crazy on me." So I can watched her walking around with a bikini on. I smirked all the way. "Now if you please, I'm going to change to my clothes. Or are you going to watch me change?" She offered. I turned my back to her and walked out of the nurses office.

"So... let's make sure I win this bet, alright..." I smirked.
