Carl x Andrew (AndCarl)

A few days ago , i got a letter from a woman named Ann . She asked me to come and do some of my work . With a high paid price , i can not refuse , can i ? In the end , i am a human . No matter how good my work is , i still need money to live .

So now , here i am , on my way to the place i’ve known so far as Lutz Cemetary . Such a far place that when i reach here , it is midnight . The cart took me here turns back right when i get down . Behind me , the sound of the cart is quickly fading away . I take a deep breath , cold air fills my lungs . I would have worn more clothes if i had known i would be in this situation .

The moon is nowhere to be seen in the sky , neither are the stars . The wind blows so strong that none of the trees here can grow leaves . Every footstep of mine matches with the sound of crunching dried leaves .

This place is vast . In the letter , she mentioned about a church somewhere in here , but i cant see any sign of it . All the thing i see is grave arranged orderly , on the scale from rich to poor . I know that by the way a grave is decorated .

Everything is getting more and more suspicious . It feels like a horror book i used to read . Am i about to get murdered ? That would be lovely . I will be glad to see the most beautiful part of life .

Crack . The sound of breaking .

I turn to see what it is .

A black cat . An expected creature would totally be here and fit in the atmostphere perfectly . Though , that cat is weird . It is holding a letter in its mouth and has a lot of poorly stiched wound on its body . 

The black cat looks at me and then runs another way . I’m probaly not the person to receive that letter , but i decided to follow it .

Following it ,  I spots something . A person is half-laying in the ground . He is either a ghoul or dead body . The latter guess excites me .

He is tall , taller than me . He wears black clothes , opposite to his skin , as pale as a corpse . There is some scar on his face . Next to his side , there are a shovel and an oil lamp .

He must be a ghoul . He is so beautiful . My mind thinks 2 thoughts at the same time .

I takes out one of my empty syringe . He may be still alive . I need to make sure before doing it . Pump a little air to his vein , and everything will be done .

Im getting closer to him , but i have to stop halfway . A pair of red eyes is looking at me , and since when i didnt notice , his left hand has held the shovel tighly .  Those bloody eyes say it all , anywhere nearer and i will be the person who gets buried here instead .

The black cat is back . It is also looking at me . I dont know why i see the smugness on its face . 

It leaps down and nudges into him . He sits up and takes the letter from its mouth , the shovel hasnt left his hand for a second .

I put the syringe back in waiting for him to make the next move .

Read the letter , he looks up .

“Mr.Carl ?”, he asks me doubtly . I nod and he looks like wanting to sigh a lot , rethinking his life choices that lead him to here .

“I have a work from Ms.Ann . Do you know her ?”, I stand up admiring his beauty from up here .

He keeps being silent for a long time . “ I dont like you “ , is all he said before standing up and lead me the way to the church . I also keep on admiring him from behind .

This man is the perfect person to bury me and i will still enjoy it .

Coordinator x Perfumer 

“What day is it ?”, the question came out of nowhere .

Vera just asked this , and the fact she did really takes Martha aback . The perfumer is a workaholic and always gives no care about her surrounding . Why does the sudden change ? Did she hit her head somewhere too hard or something ?

“Umm , its twenty-nineth october “, Martha looked at the girl sitting across the table ,”Is there something special today ?”

“Year ?”. Vera gave no answer , she kept asking .

“1873″. Being polite , Martha answered .

“So it has been 3 years since it happened “, Vera said,”,time really goes fast “

“It ? Ah , you mean ‘it’ !”, Martha came to her realization . She knows what Vera is referring to . 

‘It’ is the wedding tragedy .This day , three years ago , Vera was about to marry a vampire , not by her free will .

“I still remembered about ‘it’ . Three years ago , but ‘it’ feels like yesterday to me “, Vera started to remember about ‘it’ .

The moon shined gloomingly for a dark night . A dark as ink night filled with wind in winter like that was supposed to be cold , but it couldn’t be any colder than the hand of her groom .

He was smiling and looking at her like how a predator looks at its prey in a corner . He had had this place decorated and had his monster friends come here . He had even prepared a fake priest .

At that time , everything was ready for a sacrifice marriage . But not for the bride , she didnt want to be here , she didnt want to marry that filthy bat . She didnt want to die .

“In my desperate time , i almost gave up . If you hadnt turned up with your holy pistol , i must have died there “, Vera gave Martha a meaningful look ,”I owned you my life”

“Ha ha”, understanding all thing she said , Martha gave out two humourless sound to hide her hot feeling inside her body. She is sweating intensely right now . She has no idea how to deal with this emotional circumstance . She trained to fight against monsters and beasts , not an elegant and smelt like white rose lady .

"So , do you. . .want to celebrate this. . .anniversary ?" , Martha asked with caution . Is this the right thing to do at this moment ? She has no idea .

" If i say yes , what will you do ?", Vera smiled quietly .

" I . . .i will dance !" , Martha cant believe what she just said . She is definitely a fluttered mess .

"Dance ?", Vera raised eyebrows . She didnt expect the younger girl to answer .

"Yes , will you dance with me ?", Martha tried to keep her cool . Stood up straight , she gave the perfumer a hand , invited her to join .

"It will be my pleasure !" , Vera took her hand .

Turn on the gramophone, the music is Pretend by Joker Studio , the perfect song for a slow dance .

They moved in sync with the melodies and with each other under the bright moonlight. Such a better couple that even the moon agrees with .

" Other people used to tell me that lov. . .no , all those things could only happen between men and women , but you know what ?", one more question also came out of nowhere . Vera is sure to be talkative today .

"We could do that just fine ?", Martha is uncertain about the answer . Her instinct tells her something is coming . From the older girl .

" Yes , we could do that just fine . You and i could do that , just fine ", Vera leans in closer with every words she said , until there are nothing between them .

Seer x Lucky Guy

Deep within Manti City , on the dark mysterious street , lies a bar run by mafia . Our main is there , Lucky is there enjoying his day off . Or we can say , drinking his miserable life away for today .

Such a rare event that its the first time has happened to him . Why does that happen ? What made everything turn out to be like that ?

It’s that detective’s fault , and also the damn fat owl too . Lucky hit the table with the bottle on hand . Damn his handsome face and his cute fat owl .

“Oh oh , be careful there , boy . You are going to lick the floor clean , if there is even a single drop on it . You get it ?”, the owner of the bar and also his mafia boss , Demi Bourbon , steps out of the corner . She must have come back from her business .

“ Boss , i know . I just cant help it . Im so done with that detective “ , Lucky hiccuped .

“How can ?” , Demi took a bottle of Rum on the table . She drank it all in one go .

“He is like everywhere . Wherever my mission is going , he is already there . I doubt that he even invaded my mind , in my dream he is there too . Heck ”, Lucky cursed under his breath .

“Sound like you get a crush on him “, Demi took a Vodka this time and sat down .

“What ? Crush ? Him ? No way ! Its impossible ! I hate him and he must hate me too , we hate each other “, Lucky’s face is all red , but he refused to admit his crush .

“Its only your thought . There was a time he saved you “ , Demi stated .

“It was because we were being handcuffed together ”, Lucky shook his head .

“He hasnt handed you in “, Demi continued .

“Yet ”, Lucky growled .

Now , its Demi turn to be done with her lackey . Things are as clear as crystal , how can he not accept it ? Mafia with detective is not that bad of a couple . 

“Okay , enough drink for you today . Nice wine should not be wasted on idiot . Go rest , you have a mission tomorrow “, Demi decided to kick him out . She did kick him . 

“Yes , Madam “, Lucky whined in misery .

“Good , now go “, after having kicked out Lucky , Demi hogged all the alcohol for herself . They belong to her anyways .

Thoroughly drunk , Lucky stumbled onto the street , he pumped into someone tall and sturdy. He was about to shoot them until he realized who it was .

“Well , well , look who i ran into . Such a coincidence ”, Lucky mocked .

“Please , we are meant to be “, Eli flirted . The owl on his shoulder hooted as if she agreed with her master .

“Urgh , dont make me puke “, Lucky pushed him away .

“Wait “, Eli caught his hand ,” You are drunk . Let me take you home , the streets are dangerous at night “

“Im dangerous too . Why dont you stay away from me ?”, Lucky hiccuped . Trying to push the detective away seems like his best choice to protect his career now .

“Not to me “, Eli hugged him tight .

Lucky cant get out , doesnt want to get out . Am i . . .trapped in this ‘trap’ . . . Fine . Let indulge in this warthth a little bit , just. . .a little bit .

Lucky fell asleep when Eli whispered into his ear , “Let go home “

Lawyer x Thief 

Kreacher Pierson is the deputy of the court , one of the people promised to bring justice to the world , punishment to those who deserved it . He is coming to meet a reporter , who said that he had information about the famous thief ‘Pioneer’ . If he has that information , it will be really useful . 

The place they are about to meet is a room in a private hotel with high security . What a pain ! 

Kreacher arrived at the room mentioned in the letter . Number ? Checked . Floors ? Checked . No cameras ? Checked . No one is around ? Checked . 

Kreacher swifly opened the door . After coming in , he carefully closed the door . Its fine to be careful these days , you will never know what will happen next in the future . 

"I am the deputy of the court . I heard that you had a report on the thief ", Kreacher announced himself with the reporter , who is enjoying his tea time and definitely doesn’t expect anyone to come now. 

He must have come much much sooner than the time in the letter , Kreacher thought . 

"Yes , i do “!, Freddy said with wide eyes , but then quickly grabbed the document on the table ,” With all the information i have gathered about this buglar , I'm so surprised that the government has not caught them yet ! " 

"Might i assume that you are here to give those documents for us to handle the rest ?", Kreacher stepped closer . 

" No . I don’t trust the government “, Freddy put the document back to his bag , and about to take something out if the said deputy is going any closer ,” and after seeing you here . My trust has gone from minimum to non-existent" 

"Then why are you here , Mr.Riley ?", Kreacher stopped in his place , took his hat off and hid his hand in it . Both of them maintained their distance . 

"To strike a deal . I will sell these to whoever pays the most " , Freddy said in a mocking tone , “ the government , the public , or even the thief himself “ 

That man is sure troublesome , is he thinking that he has an upper hand here ? , Kreacher wondered .

"Mr.Riley , i need to remind you it's the responsibility of every citizen to give the government any criminal-related information ", Kreacher walked backward to the door , kept his eyes on the reporter , hand is still hidden," Its the best for your safety " 

"Such fancy words coming from a thief . Right ? The famous thief 'Pioneer' ?", Freddy definitely cant be wrong . He knows it as clear as the sky what the real identity of the person in front of him is . The only thing he doesn’t know is what will happen next in the future . 

He shouldn’t have said that , shouldn’t have touched something he shouldn’t touch . Now . I . Am . Mad  , Kreacher cracked his facade . 

" Ha ha ha ! Yes ! Yes . It . Is ", 'The thief' laughed in madness and locked the door .

Hell Ember x Lucky Guy 

“Losing everything and having nothing to lose , which one is worse ?”

“Mr.Beck , fancy meeting you . What are you doing here this late ?”, Lucky ran into someone he did not expect to meet here when he had gone out for a walk . A hunter is hiding in the survivor’s garden .

“I. . .umm i . . .i am just here to. . .to . . .you know. . . “, the hunter , Hell Ember or Leo , for short , is stuttering . He didnt expect anyone to go out this late either .

“No matter what you said , Mr.Beck . Its against the rule to come out of your place this late “ , Lucky said .

“I guess i also broke the rule going out here . Let keep it a secret from Miss.Nightingale then “ , Lucky fixed his glasses position .

“. . .thank you” , Leo said softly .

“Can i join you to stay here ? I dont want to come back in yet “ , Lucky pointed at the bush next to Leo .

“Sure , i dont own this place . You can do whatever you want “ , Leo moved slightly .

“Mr.Beck , can i ask you a question ?” , Lucky started .

“What is it , kid ?”, Leo patted Lucky’s head .

“What does family mean to you ?”, Lucky looked at the hunter .

Leo stopped for a moment , “. . .everything . It means everything to me”

“Well , should i be happy because its just your answer “ , Lucky smiled sadly ,”If everyone answers the same as you , then does it mean im the only one who has nothing “

“Kid , what’s wrong ?” , Leo can feel it , the broken in his sound , the darkness in his eyes . He used to be like that before .

“We had a few drinks , everyone got drunk and started to talk about their past and dream “, Lucky sighed ,” Only then , i realized how much i am different from them “

“ Kid , head up and smile . You are still too young to think about that , just get up and keep living “ , Leo encouraged .

“But. . .”, Lucky wanted to say something .

“No , dont say anything . Listen to me , im talking right now “ , Leo made the silent sign .

Lucky stayed silent .

“You know about my incident ?”, Leo asked .

Lucky nodded .

“I regret it , i regret every single pieces of it “ , Leo shook his head ,” and dont tell me its not my fault . Its neither about him nor her , i just hate that i gave up too soon at that time “

“When i set that factory in fire , i wanted everything to end . I was being too. . .stupid . Too stupid to realize that there was still a little hope for me , she was still waiting for me to come “, Leo told his story . Sound more like his feeling about that time .

“And then. . .you know the rest . I get surrected here , and become a . . . “, Leo coughed , “. . .fate is sure to be both kind and cruel at the same time , but at least im being thankful about this chance . I cant be more happy to meet her again , this time i will not give up “

“And neither should you , kid “ , Leo patted Lucky again , “Dont give up . If you think that you dont have anything back then , you can start to make something now “

“Lucky ! Where are you ?”, some is shouting in the manor .

“See , they are looking for you . Who can say that someone worrys for you is not your family . Kid , losing everything or having nothing to lose is not that bad . If you refuse to give up , you will find something to live for “, Leo said the wise words .

“Now , go back there with them or both of us will get caught out here “, Leo shoved .

“. . .thanks . Mr.Leo “ , Lucky felt something bloom inside him . He stood up .

Lucky walked back to the opened window and climbed in .

“Guys ! Im here ! Sorry for taking so long , i just dozed off “ , Lucky called out . Getting attention from 2 people , William and Eli . 

“Doze off on the lobby ?”, William is confused .

“Yes , yes i did “, Lucky avoided those eyes looking at him .

“Its okay , please be more carefull next time . Its easy to get caught “ , Eli looked over the opened window ,”by a cold in this weather “

“Yeah , yeah , i will “, Lucky is sweating instead . The seer might know something , he is unexpectable .

“Let go and tell the others ! Dont make them worry too much “ , William dragged both of them away .

This moment might be something he should treasure , Lucky thought and smiled , maybe he will be nicer to Mr.Leo in match more .

Bonus scene :

“I heard you are trying to hit on my papa”, Emma grabbed Lucky clothes and picked him up like how cat picks up their kitten .

“ Ha ha”, Lucky made out 2 humourless sound and begged, “ Please have mercy “

“Oh , i will “, the gardener smiled .

Dear diary ,

Its me again , yours sincere doctor , Emily Dyers .

It has been nearly half a month since i became the doctor of this pirate ship . By chance . Accident i might say , i thought this job offer on this fancy-looking ship was the opportunity for me to sneak out of the country . I did not expect it to be a pirate ship . A fancy-looking pirate ship though .

Everything has been busy since then . I only get a little time to write for you . The pirate life is so wild that i’m not used to it yet , but right now i already am having a big problem with the captain's daughter .

Emma has come for me today . Again . And it is the nineth time this month . She is always coming here with minor injuries that definitely dont need taking care of . And i swear by all the salt in this sea , all those injuries were made purposely .

Like how it could be real that she fell off the ship , then a shark bit her hand . Hence , i need to take care of a wound which looks like a paper cut on her hand .

Like what ? What does she want when she keeps doing this ? Again and again ? What is her purpose behind ? Is she trolling me ? What is wrong with her ?

And why do i like taking care of her ? Why am i acting like those action of her is normal ?

Every time i see her smiling , my heartbeat goes fast , so fast . It feels like a high blood pressure symptom, but i am not in any bad health state . What is wrong with me too ?

That is all for today , i hope tomorrow i will be normal and know what is happening .

P/s : Its not seasick , i checked .
