"so chara where were you the past few days?, school was so boring without you" Remi asks as the two are at remi's apartment this time after chara got off work ,they are again stuffing their faces as remi handed chara the tangerine he just finished peeling and helped himself to another. "Boring? Or you didn't have anyone to carry your bag" chara said in a teasing tone. "Uh oh you got me , how did you knoooow?" Remi said, putting his arms up and accepting his intentions were exposed . "You idiot.." chara said smacking remi on his shoulder. "I was busy helping my uncle move , he finally got a very good job but it's in another town , I was helping him move his stuff and took the trip with him to help him settle down" she added , "your uncle moved? That means you live alone now?" Remi asked. "Well yeah I guess, but you're missing the point, uncle has a good job now, so maybe in a couple months I can quit some of the part-time jobs I do and focus more on my studies or have more free time" chara announced feeling quite happy again when she remembered this was the first time in a while anything good had happened to her or someone in her family ,she was so happy for her uncle who has been trying hard for this, but also kind of happy for herself,as even though she never minded the hardwork she did everyday, being able to relax a bit more and enjoy her early adult days would be nice . "Mmm that's nice" remi mumbled and continued peeling his fruit,he gave a rather lukewarm reaction to what was a major piece of good news chara felt she was sharing with her friend , she didn't bother about it though, she didn't expect remi to be as excited as she was for something that happened to her,but she still couldn't help but feel a friend who was more lively with their reaction to a major piece of good news like this from her would've been nice . Chara shrugged it off and changed the topic, "next week is going to be such a pain at school" she said as she took a bite of the tangerine and managed to get the juice to squirt in her eye. "Why?" Remi asked still peeling the skin off his tangerine. "Tsk tsk tsk ,ah that stings..... Well most of the other students will be back from their holidays next week so school's about to get to it's full power of annoying starting Monday" chara said and then took another bite, somehow biting her tongue this time, "fuc-!!!!".

"-So does that mean there will be more work for me to do with academics and stuff?" Remi said ,cutting off chara who was cussing in pain .

"Oh sorry chara, are you okay chara? Heres a towel chara and a glass of water" chara muttered to herself as she got up and took a towel from the kitchen shelf to try and clean the stinging juice off her face. "Oh yeah chara, put the towel in the washer when you're done using it please " remi said , pointing commandingly at the washer as he finished peeling his tangerine then took a bite ,and in almost cartoonist karma somehow managing to get some of the juice directly in his eye as well. "Fu-!!!!!"

"-put the towel in the washer when you're done " chara said ,giggling with delight. "Chara you evil witch I can't see, please help" remi pleaded as he rubbed his eyes trying to stop the sting.

The Sunday breeze was relaxing and the early sunset was a relaxing view, Arloh was enjoying the day quietly,sitting by himself in a cafe.

He was having a relaxing day but it was quite boring when he compared it to everyother day in the week, it probably had something to do with the arrival of the new girl in class. he sat enjoying the view of his surroundings at the outdoor cafe, just taking in the sights and not really thinking about anything specific , he enjoyed just slowing down and enjoying sights, but then he noticed someone familiar,someone who had managed to he on his mind all week, the rough silver hair was undeniably her's. The person was across the street looking at clothes in a store through the glass,Arloh got up and walked over and when he got close enough he finally made his presence known. "Well it's good to see you're just fine after you dissapeared last time"he said putting his hands on his waist,the girl turned around and to his dissapointment ,it was not remi ,but a random lady in a wig. Arloh was slightly embarrassed that he approached a stranger that way. "Sorry ma'am I thought you were someone else"he apologizes immediately and palmed his face, the lady simply nodded, made a "hmm" sound and left . *Why did I do that? That person didn't even look anything like her* Arloh thought to himself, sighed and went back to the cafe .

"I had to leave my relaxation to come here you know," in a dark room in an unknown location,a mysterious figure has a hostage tied to a chair ,circling around the hostage ,while his henchmen stand guard. "The Allfather is not happy at all.." the figure continues as he stops in front of the cowaring hostage. In the figure's left hand there is a white umbrella,adorned with trinkets and jewelry of all sorts, it makes a rattling noise as he walks closer to the hostage ,and using the umbrella,he lifts the chin of the hostage. "You promised to provide him a 'shadow' seat in the senate if he supllied you with arms and border control for your business" he says as he motions a back and forth swing at the head of the hostage ,like a golfer about to shoot."Allfather provided you with arms and security and easily fixed the border security problem for you , and when we asked for your part of the deal , you ignored us and even tried to hide.." he Snickered silently and continued "...you should know that you cannot hide from the Allfather, he controls everything,he didn't need the senate position, it was a test of your loyalty and capability to see what you can offer him and if you will be a reliable ally going forward, clearly you are not". The hostage who had been quietly whimpering and listening all along finally had something to say ,"look kid ,i tried, it was difficult okay?",he said with fear on his bruised face from the beating they had put on him earlier."Allfather doesn't accept failure" the mystery man snapped back, and this time gestured with the umbrella like he was holding an axe trying to split a log. "Look kid I'm still a member of the parliament,you can't just kill me" the hostage made a huge bluff ,hoping it would save him. "I can kill you right now and next week the narrative everyone will be saying - ashamed and guilty corrupt parliament member ,takes own life" the mystery man said and relaxed his 'weapon', "so don't even think you can threaten us with people caring about your position in the country,it won't matter". He leaned in closer to the hostage senator and moved down his glasses ,which had a a white round frame and also heavily bejeweled with diamond crested ropes of sorts hanging in hoops on both sides. He shone his teeth which were also bejeweled in diamonds at the senator and continued, "so we must use you as an example so no one ever thinks the all father has gone soft,you will not die , but if you did it won't matter a single bit,so what do you have to say for yourself" he asked the quivering senator who was out of excuses. "Look kid I have money, I can pay you double, no triple of what the Allfather pays you ,just let me go , please god damnit!!" the hostage pleaded agressively. "Ha!" The figure mocked and strted to spin his umbrella, "you think this is about money? Noooo no no, it is about using you to send a message to the other lap dogs ,...." He paused a bit and inhaled heavily "...that the all father always knows, and you can not escape!!!!!,you can not cross him!!!! And you can not hide anywhere on this hell of earth,even if you dig to it's core!!!!!!!" he screamed at the hostage while caressing the top of his bald head before calming himself and reverting to his calm demeanour, he pat the senator's bald head like he was a pet and continued now in a relaxed tone. "It's good that you have money....you will be able to afford your medical bills" . !!!!CRACK!!!! The umbrella which had a heavy still tip cracked against the skull of the senator who got knocked out immediately. The mysterious figure finally relaxed and turned around to leave the dark room. "I'm done here,take off a finger or two of his ,and give him a scar" he ordered the henchmen who had been watching quietly the whole time, "ahhh his sweat is on my outfit " he dusted himself down as he left the room " oh and some blood too, I hate when that happens" he sighed as he exited the dark room , coming out onto the deck of a small ,mostly empty cruise ship out at sea.

"Young master,you have a call" another henchman waiting outside handed a phone to the young man who was just torturing the unfortunate senator.

"The Allfather has a task for you, when are you going back to school?" The voice questioned immediately from the phone as the young man took it, "tsk I just got the rat senator and I have another job ey? It'll take me some time to get back. I still have cleaning up to do here and I will even have to end my holiday early,is it urgent?" The young man said and adjusted his flashy glasses and sighed under his breath. "It's not urgent now, but the faster you attend to it the better it will be for your image before the Allfather, I hope you understand ...Reuben" .

Monday morning and remi woke up feeling like a pregnant seal,he had to drag himself to school today, but it was okay because finally his class will get to see the much better awesome real him and not his fake cousin persona, he cleaned up,got dressed ,admired himself in the mirror and set out. He didn't run into Jerry or Trisha today,but they probably wouldn't have recognized him anyways. As soon as he arrived at the school compound he could notice the stares he got from the other students,they were all captivated by his dashing good looks and probably recognized him from his social media as well, he knew they were going to to swarm him soon.

A girl soon approached him as he was almost at the main entrance to the school halls, "are you?, are you really Remi? ..OMG ..it is you!!!" She squealed In excitement "..I watch all your games ,I'm a super super fan, can I get a picture?" She requested. Remi ran his hand through his hair and smirked ,enjoying the attention."of course of course, but don't tell anyone I go to your school...I would absolutely , definitely haaaaate to have to deal with fans swarming outside school in the mornings ,don't you think?" He said as he posed for the selfie with the girl. "I won't I won't , infact I won't post this I'll keep this as a treasure" the girl said as she hugged her phone close to her body ," ...I can't believe it, are you really studying at our school now?" She asked again still not believing remi was actually a student in the school. But before remi could confirm or deny it ,other students who recognized him started to swarm ,remi immediately ignored the first girl and started pandering to his fairly numbered audience. Even some of the students who had no clue about e-sports or Remi showed up as well , wanting to know what was going on, everyone got some pictures ,even a couple autographs and finally let Remi go back to whatever he was doing at their school, surely he was not a student here , him having casual clothes on and not a uniform also made the students believe he was here for a different reason.

But when Remi got to his class it was different, they knew 'rei' was Remi's cousin , so when he entered the class now wearing the school uniform he was given earlier in the day,he didn't get swarmed like earlier in the day, instead a couple of the students just were surprised to see him and murmured to each other ,some still has no clue who he was , and like three guys cane up to him and told him how they can't believe he really was Rei's cousin and they think it's cool he's in their class,they asked for pictures before going to their seats. But it was underwhelming for Remi, he expected a bigger shock from his classmates from his reveal, maybe they were just not aware of his actual fame,but what bothered him more was that they seemed to ask where rei was or if she was actually his cousin, more than acknowledging his presence.

He didn't like those questions so he didn't address them and just went to his seat , chara who was seated next him was smiling ear to ear with her head resting in her palm. "So how is your first day at school Mr superstar?" she asked as soon as he sat down. "I don't like it, why is everyone in our class just asking about Rei? Why do they care?" he complained as he took a book and pen out of his bag and placed them on his desk, "probably because they met her first and now she's just dissapeared when you show up..." Chara speculated "...and also ..she's way prettier than you so the guys would care about her more" she added with an obnoxious shrug. "Tsk,.." Remi hissed and then closed in to Chara covering his mouth with his hand and whispered "..I think our classmates are just really a bunch of old men and women and they don't have internet, I was swarmed by students from other classes" . Chara chuckled then mimicked his gesture and whispered back ," Well not everyone will recognize a social media famous person and also most of our classmates aren't exactly interested in what you do, 'B- sports'? Or what's it called?" She said as she scrunched her face and side eyed Remi to see if he noticed her jab at him, he did notice as he whacked her in the back of the head with his book ,"it's E-sports not B-sports ,you coconut" he whispered back and furrowed his brows . "Ow!! sorry don't kill me please supreme ruler" Chara whispered,rubbing the back of her head. "supreme ruler? The nicknames don't stop,you little- " Remi whispered back and whacked Chara with his book again, Chara took the 'declaration of war' and smacked Remi with her book right in the face, "ow!! Foul play!!" Remi whispered in complaint as the two soon started going at it ,having a very quiet back and forth hitting each other with books.

At the back of the class Arloh was in his usual seat ,he watched the two silently try to give each other concussions.His idol Remi was right there ,in his classroom he couldn't believe he was actually Rei's cousin,he thought if approaching him, but decided it was better to wait until after school, he also wondered why and how chara was so friendly and familiar with both cousins, where they all friends? And most importantly, where was Rei after she dissapeared from his house last time, was she okay?

As Arloh watched and thought of the peculiar situation,the class door flew open and a young lady walked in with the flamboyance of an exotic bird,the class was suddenly quiet as they observed who it was,her heeled shoes clicked and her feathered hairpin glowed,the designer bag hanging from her wrist would get all the attention if anyone else wore it, but on her it was just an accesory. Her tall slender figure moved with poise and her face was as pouty and haughty as it gets,her dark eyes pierced everyone with nothing but sheer confidence as she turned to look at the other students. As soon as the class realized who it was ,they erupted in noise and murmurs,some girls immediately moved from their seats and Remi and Chara where frozen in the middle of their roughhousing as the entire class seemed to be commanded by the girl's presence. Her long orange hair seemed to flow in the wind as she paused in front of the class a bit and announced "I'm here my babies!!" .

The girls swarmed her and led her to her seat ,asking her questions about her holiday and the boys tried to get in on the conversation, almost the entire class were her subjects. Remi and Chara watched as almost the entire class went chaotic ,treating the ginger haired girl like a world class celebrity. "Who is she ,how is she doing that?" Remi asked as the book in his hand dropped to the floor , seemingly entranced by the girl's presence. Chara's face turned into a frown as she looked at the girl , most of the class had swarmed to the corner where her seat was, surrounding her and treating her like royalty ,while showering her with questions. "That's the evil witch ice queen of this school" Chara said , squinting her eyes at the girl with a spiteful look. "Ice queen? There's nothing cold about her" Remi replied as he observed the girl who was now very energetically addressing her subjects talking about her holiday events. "She's not the one who's cold, it's the people who stick with her who turn cold and miserable that's why those of us who aren't affected by her brainwashing ,we call her the Ice queen" Chara explained,now not-so-subtly stabbing her desk with her pencil ,while still maintaining her glare on the ginger haired girl. Remi looked at the little holes in the desk and gulped "he..hehehe...you don't seem to like her very much do you Charls?" He asked sort of nervous ,using the nickname he used for Chara anytime he got her pissed. "Oh I don't like her one bit, since I got to this school all she ever did was make people dislike me for no reason and act like she had no clue what she was doing" Chara said ,still glaring at the girl. "Wait so I've been hanging out with the class loner? That's no good" Remi said and clicked his tongue,Chara turned almost immediately and gave him a piercing glare. "Sorry ,not the time" he immediately apologized as he could feel the bead of sweat form on his forehead.

Arloh was still watching everything from the back of the class, he was one of the students who knew the story of Chara and the ginger haired girl, he was there when everything started,he also knew that no one actually called her the 'ice queen' that was just Chara,infact the entire school loved her. But he also knew that the name ice queen was actually befitting of her , she was an enigma , a personality that was as chaotic as it was flamboyant and charming,one of his least favourite people who Rei reminded him of when he first met her, this was someone he also couldn't stand....he watched as she mindlessly indulged in the attention she received from the other students. She really pissed him off , he didn't like her at all ,he thought he disliked Rei but not nearly as much as he disliked ..Bel.
