Chapter 3: Anima Attack II
"Hey, what is it? You look strange. Did something happen on the phone? Don't tell me you have to leave again because I'll never forgive you!"
Arit spoke up as she saw the worried look on Mark's face. She first spoke in a worried tone because she thought that something bad might've happened, and she didn't want Mark to be in any trouble. But once she saw him smile at her in that mischievous way that he always did, she immediately lost all her worry, and she just became annoyed as she shouted at him! He was just too infuriating!
Mark moved quickly and grabbed Arit by the waist before pressing her against the wall and smiling down at her. Arit almost felt her heart burst out of her chest once he did this, and she felt her whole face growing hotter as she looked up at him. Mark smiled at her, and Arit suddenly felt like her shirt was too tight! She looked away in embarrassment as Mark's eyes trailed down her body, and she felt like he was eating her with his eyes!
"You'll never forgive me? I don't think I can agree to that. What would I do without you?"
"Get off me, you bastard!"
Arit placed her hand against his chest and struggled to push him back in anger. Mark just laughed as he took a step back and gave her some space. Arit's heart was beating a mile a minute, and she had to put her hand to her chest and take deep breaths to stop it!
She hates it when Mark teases her like this and then just laughs about it! There was no doubt that she thought Mark was handsome, and Arit knew that he thought she was beautiful too. They were both attracted to each other, and that was fine. But Arit would never enter a relationship just because of something as shallow as ordinary physical attraction.
Arit didn't know how Mark really felt about her because he was always laughing after doing things like this! He would tease her and pin her against the wall, but then he would just laugh it off like it was nothing! That was not the sort of relationship that she wanted with someone! She couldn't allow someone to play around with her heart like that!
"Sorry, sorry. I got ahead of myself there. You're just too tempting."
Mark said this with a kind grin on his face, but his voice was intense and deep, and it made Arit's body tremble. Arit felt great anger fill her as she thought about smacking Mark immediately! This bastard deserved a good beating for the nonsense he always pulled! But she didn't bother doing anything, and she just turned and started to walk back to class.
Tilda was in City A trying to meet with a friend that she hadn't seen in more than three years, but she didn't think that she would suddenly get a ping from her phone that there was an Anima attack so close to her location! There were no responders close by, and Tilda knew that it would take some time before the ones further away could get there, so she had to abandon the friend that she planned to meet, and she decided to come here instead!
Tilda cursed as she remembered that she also needed to file a report for this attack later! The report would take so fucking long, and no one wanted to do it! If Tilda was a worse person, she would have abandoned all the citizens just so she wouldn't have to write that damn report!
Crack!
As Tilda reached the port, she screeched to a halt as her feet left long cracks against the ground, and she was shocked to see a monster three times as tall as her slamming its large hands into one of the containers, denting it and making it cave in on itself. The monster then grabbed the container and threw it into a ship that was docked at the harbor with immense strength!
Boom!!!
The container crumpled into a twisted shape as it slammed against the wall of the ship, and the ship began to rock back and forth on the water as it tried to gain back its balance!
"Run away from there!"
"Wait! There's still someone in there! They'll die!"
"You'll die if you don't get out of there right now! Let's go!"
"Argghhh! Wait for me! Help!!"
People were screaming and running away from the monster as they tried their hardest not to get hit by the giant containers that were being tossed around. Tilda waited for just two seconds so she could properly assess the situation before she quickly burst into action! Tilda dashed at the giant monster at a slower pace and tried to get its attention! The monster looked like a hybrid of a man, a gorilla, and a fish. It had large hairy arms and feet, but its head was fishlike with giant eyeballs that were staring down at Tilda without even blinking once!
