The annoyances of life (pt.2)

"Man, what a hassle." I sighed.

The plan was to go call Tetra for a walk, but now my mood is ruined.

"Look, How about we just forget about this encounter, okay? You lot who just watched this, don't say a word, ok? I'm sure this girl who just attacked me also wouldn't want you to spread info about this encounter." I'd rather leave before everyone gets on my nerves and I accidentally kill a bunch of students.

Taking a deep breath, I walked along the crowded corridor and came into Tetra's room.

"Oh, hey. Do you need anything?" The queen bee asked, not surprised by my entrance.

It makes sense, though. She's definitely got more than enough points of intelligence to hear approaching footsteps through the wall.

"The way you put it makes me sound like I always force you to do random tasks.. Anyway, wanna go outside?" I took a seat on her bed and pulled down my right sleeve, revealing Blood's head.

"Sounds good. You have no idea how boring it gets, sitting in your room for hours at a time." She glanced at the clock.

"Oh yeah, I've been wanting to ask this for a while now. Why do you spend all your time locked up in the dorm? Surely, there's something better you can do with your time." Having spent a few weeks in school, I haven't seen her around the campus even once.

"I think you'll understand me on this one.. The reason is that I can't handle the people around here. They all severely lack any depths to their thoughts, and interaction with them will probably make me just as dumb." I totally agree with Tetra's point.

"River's got me for chat, so we're fine as is." Blood added.

"Well, that's a lie. You spend most of the day sleeping, cause school is boring as shit, so I have to be the one gathering information instead." I'm starting to doubt the old man's advice, but I'll stay here for a few more weeks just in case anything important does show up amidst the boring classes.

After talking about the student's stupidity for a few more minutes - a fun topic to say the least - we finally left the school's territory.

~~~

"Nice ass."

"Wut?" The three of us turned around to look at the direction of the remark, only to find another student from our academy.

"We left the school to get away for dudes like yourself. Is that so hard to grasp?" The goat head aggressively spoke as he extended his neck to reach the poor guy's face, scaring the living crap out of him.

"Haha. Am I that scary now? River, Tetra, what do you think?" Turning his head to in our direction, Blood asked.

"Yer."

"Definitely."

"Well, that's disappointing. Yo, kid. You better run away now or I'll bite you or something." The goat head finished the interaction and we went back to walking.

"What is this? Can I just not get a break from all the kids and have a chat with you two peacefully?" I lightly kicked a rock, but apparently my interpretation of "lightly" may have been a little off.

The rock shot forwards and broke a stone wall. Someone's house.

"Hey, umm, River. You do realize you're the same age as these students? Also, I think you kicked the rock a little hard." Blood made an unnecessary comment.

"Thanks, man. I just DIDN'T NOTICE THE WALL SHATTERING TO PIECES. Aaah, for fuck's sake." The little annoying stuff keeps piling up, and it's getting really irritating.

"Your anger management is lacking, no?" Tetra always makes good points. Perhaps I should learn to keep my head from her.

I took a look at Blood to see how he was coping with everything, but he did's seem to happy either. I'm not sure if we belong in the human kingdom after all. Everyone also stares at Tetra all the time, mainly because she's not human, but also because she's got an attractive body.

I guess that dude we just scared wasn't wrong after all.

"Mommy, look, that cloaked man just broke somebody's house."I heard a kid's voice.

"Shh, don't point at strangers." His mom shushed the kid and they walked away, however, the amount of noise, both from the kind and shattering house, was enough to attract a bunch of people.

"Hah, what is this? At this rate, I'll end up murdering everyone in the city. People, you can hear me nice and clear, yes? Good, good. Now, all together, go right the fuck away right now or you'll regret it." I had a salty smile on my face.

"You aren't actually planning to start a slaughter here, are you?" The queen bee asked to confirm.

"No, I'm not. Just wanna scare them away before they piss me off enough to reconsider the choice." Saying that I nodded to Tetra.

She nodded back and activated her sound ability which slowly drives people mad and hurts their head if they don't leave the vicinity.

With screams of fear, everyone dashed away, and Tetra disabled the ability.

I should ask what it's called, but I'm not in the mood for that.

"Ahh, that's nice. So much more peaceful when there're no dumbasses nearby." The goat head said with relief.

"Agreed."

"Now then, shall we have a peaceful walk as planned?" The queen bee seemed to bee* in a better mood too.

With all the trouble out of the way, we proceeded to enjoy the evening. Oh jees, it's already evening? Ah, who cares anyway. There's never a bad time for a walk.

(*see what I did there? The bee seemed to "bee" in a good mod. You-You get it? Hahahaha. Haha. ha. ... I'm sorry.)
