โฆ ๐ญ๐ฐ/๐๐ฐ : heavy swearing/cuss words, injection of a needle, suicidal behavior?
imagine there was a vaccine that everyone in twisted wonderland had to takeโwhether they were humans, merfolk, beastmen, fairies, or any other living creatures. it was mandatory and most people got it during their teenage years.
so, of course, when the infamous prefect of ramshackle expressed confusion of said knowledge, their friends knew they had to immediately take the shot. what they didn't know was that their dearest prefect suffered from trypanophobia.
"LET ME GO, YOU SON OF Aโ"
"IT'S FOR YOUR OWN GOOD!!"
"FUCK YOU MEAN 'FOR MY OWN GOOD'?? LET GOโ"
"PREFECT, STOP TRASHING AROUNDโ"
"I DO WHAT I FUCKING WANT, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!"
though, they immediately knew of the fact when it took all five of them; ace, deuce, jack, epel, and sebek to try and hold them down. keyword : tried.
jack was holding them in a headlock, ace and deuce were pinning each of their arms onto the infirmary bed, sebek and epel were holding each of their legs in place, whilst ortho watched with concern. the doctorโwho was sent to do the vaccinationโonly smiled patiently as he waited for the tantrum to be over, as if this was a normal occurrence for him.
crewel watched from the sidelines, sighing in exasperation before nodding at the doctor to do his job. the doctor fetched a hypodermic needle from his bag and at the sight of the syringe, yuu began to breathe frantically.
"get that big ass needle away from me."
they shook their head rapidly when the doctor slowly approached their quivering figure, unsheathing the needle from the safety shield and flicking it a few times, smiling eerily like the grim reaper ready to take their soul.
"don't you fucking dare, DON'T YOU DAREโ"
ace struggled to roll up the sleeve of their uniform but he managed, presenting their soon-to-be-punctured upper arm to death itself.
"ACE, I'M GONNA FUCKING KILL YOU, YOU ASSHOLE!!"
"YOU'LL THANK ME LATER!!"
their life flashed before their eyes, and just before the doctor could inject the god forsaken needle, they bit jack's arm, hard.
during the moment of weakness, yuu used it to punched ace across the face and kicked sebek in the nose. deuce were lucky enough to dodge the incoming fist, missing by an inch, and epel quickly retracted when they bit jack's arm, not wanting to be the next victim.
they jumped out of the bed and made a bee line towards the exit, jumping from bed to bed in order to avoid getting hit by crewel's binding spells.
"OW, WHAT THE FUCKโ juice, epel, get them!"
"it's not juice, it's DEUCE!" said boy yelled as he and epel dashed towards the exit to catch the runaway prefect. from the distance, the boys could hear them laughed maniacally while screaming, "I LIVE!!"
"PREFECT, STOP!!" epel yelled, trying to catch up as he wasn't as fast as deuce, the heartslabyul student was in the track and field club after all.
"SO LONG, SUCKERS!!" yuu chortled before picking up their pace, somehow being able to run faster.
"yeah no, i'm calling rook," epel muttered under his breath before fishing out his phone, quickly dialling his upperclassman's number. deuce huffed and did the same, "i think i'll ask cater too."
on the other hand, yuu rounded around a corner to calm themself. hair disheveled, panting, adrenaline coursing through their veins, but still on high guard. you never knew, their friends might just jumped them from out of thin air and startled them like how this arrow didโ
the hunt continued with new participants, and yuu screamed bloody murder when five caters surrounded them, arms opened wide to caged them.
"prefect~ where do you think you're going?" all five of them asked simultaneously, smiling eerily like the doctor back in infirmary which sent shivers down their spine.
"SAVING MY ASS FROM DEATH!!" yuu barked back, scanning around for an opening to escape, which seemed impossible with five caters and rook somewhere watching their every moves.
"now, now, you know it's mandatory to take the shot, right?"
"and i know that i don't give a FUCK!!"
"aww, that's no way to speak to your upperclassman~"
the caters slowly approached them, caging them like a bird with no way to fly, exceptโ
yuu gambled their chances and kicked one of the caters in the shinโwho happened to be the real one. the impact caused him to lose focus and shattered his unique magic, giving yuu the chance to flee.
they were busy whooping in victory to notice rook trailing behind them with that CREEPY ASS SMILE! WHAT IS IT WITH EVERYONE AND CREEPY SMILES?!
"HELP MEEEEEEE!!" yuu cried out in fear, facing forward as to not look at rook's face lest they pissed their pants.
they skidded to a stop when they reached towards a dead end, the only escape routes were the balconies on both sides. rook stopped in front of them, slightly panting and brimming with sweats just like them, "who knew trickster could run so fast?" he tried to make light of the situation.
yuu's eyes drifted back and forth between the two balconies and rook noticed. he held both of his hands up in the air to show he meant no harm, like a person to a scared cat, trying to calm them down.
"trickster, please, c'est dingue!" he tried to plead, yet it fell on deaf ears as they made a run for it.
rook's eyes widened as he saw the prefect jumped off of the balcony, straight towards the ground below, his hand missing an inch from the cuff of their neck before his fingers gripped the air.
he stood there, stunned, frozen, thinking that he just saw and let someone died in front of him whilst he could've prevented it. mind already going haywire and blamed himself for being too late and not fast enough, for letting someone's life slipped through his fingers just like that, but soon snapping out of the daze once he heard leona's gruff voice screaming, "THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!"
rook gripped the edge of the balcony, looking down to see the beastman clutching the arm of the prefect tightly with one hand from the lower level, his upper body bent over the railings. with a grunt, he used the other hand to pushed himself back and with the help of ruggie, the both of them managed to pull yuu back onto the floor.
the three of them flopped onto the floor, a bit shaken up by what just happened.
"man, i know we all have problems and stuff but reconsider it firstโ" ruggie didn't even get to finish his sentence as it was cut off by the prefect sprinting away with a, "THANK YOU!! I'LL REPAY YOU BOTH LATER!!"
both beastmen only watched them with unreadable expressions, "damn, the hell ruffled their furs?" "seven knows," "get yo ass up, you are NOT sleeping here," "make me."
back to the prefect, they were running through the hallways, ignoring the curious looks they received from the other students. all of a sudden, their hair stood on end as they heard the familiar chanting of, "OFF WITH YOUR HEAD!"
they tripped at the shock of the sudden weight around their neck, faceplanted on the floor, muttering, "i think i broke my nose..."
they heard a sigh from above and was met with vil who pulled them back up onto their feet, scanning for more injuries as he dabbed the blood running down their nose using his handkerchief.
"a nosebleed, bruise on the forehead, and possible brain injury."
they heard some approaching footsteps from behind vil and took a peek across his shoulder, vil gripped their chin gently and chided them to not move.
"prefect, i apologise! are you hurtโ YOU'RE BLEEDING!!"
"lower your voice, riddle. you'll give them a headache."
vil sighed once again as he let go of yuu's chin, passing his handkerchief for yuu to hold, and opting to gripped their shoulders with both hands to ensure they wouldn't escape this time, "now, let's go back to the infirmary, for real this time." he looked at them straight in the eyes.
'i'm gonna die for real this time!' they panicked, their breathing going rigid and blood ran cold. they couldn't escape from two housewardens, they were already too tired from all the previous running and dodging and escaping. they needed to think quick!
"IS THAT NEIGE VISITING NRC?!"
to say vil's neck snapped towards the direction they pointed at was an understatement, they were worried he might broke his neck but hey! his gripped faltered for a second which gave them a chance to slip away.
at the sound of riddle's shouting, both deuce and epel appeared from around the corner they were hiding and tackled the prefect to the ground.
though they immediately let go of yuu when all of a sudden, vibrant blue smoke filled their visions and lungs, along with the familiar voice of a certain humanoid who dragged yuu out of the crime scene.
"let's go yuu!" ortho led them to a vacant classroom, away from the eyes of their hunters.
inside, the prefect let out a breath they didn't know they were holding and collapsed to the floor, "i've survived..."
ortho hovered around them, scanning their current state before talking, "prefect, let me do a quick scan on you! it seems that you've received some minor injuries during your escapade!"
"oh yeah, sure, lemme justโ" they stopped abruptly when they felt a prick on their right upper arm, the exact same spot where they should get the...
once the realization dawned upon them, their eyes zeroed in at the sight of the syringe injecting itself into their skin. their eyes trailed from the needle up to the culprit who they thought was an ally.
"how could you...?" they whispered, heart broken into a million pieces at the betrayal. a wolf in sheep's clothing. the devil in disguise.
"it's for your own good," at his words, they choke out a sob, shook their head, and took a step back away from him before their back hit the wall behind.
"i trusted you..." they croaked out, feeling light-headed as black dots began to consume their field of view.
"WHATโ OW?!" yuu's hand immediately went up to touch their cheek in shock, feeling the sting of where ace had slapped them as they looked at him incredulously, "THE FUCK WAS THAT FOR?!" it would surely leave a mark.
"just shake me awake, god dammit!"
"tried to!" grim came into view, hopping onto yuu's stomach, "you were dead."
"we would've thought you were actually dead if it weren't for your pulse..." they heard deuce muttered under his breath followed by ace's groan, "yeah, yeah. now, go! we're gonna be late."
yuu got up from the couch and did a quick stretch before walking towards the bathroom, not forgetting to stick their tongue out at ace. right, they were having a sleepover at ramshackle. you could hear epel complaining about recording himself doing the ten steps morning skincare routine assigned by vil, jack doing some morning exercise with sebek, and ortho making some breakfast with a suspicious amount of chili sauce.
'huh, maybe it was just a dream?'
"prefect, come have breakfast first! you need to eat before the vaccination!"
'...or was it a prophecy?'
