~Coral Coast College, Principal’s Office~

'That's the last of them.' I thought as I threw another person on the ground, I turned around and walked over to where Nina was standing and took my stuff from her "Let's go, the lesson will start soon." I said.

"Why not skip college?" She asked me and I looked at her with a confused expression "Why?"

"We can talk about why you let them hit you deliberately." She said with a smile as she walked towards the gate.

'It can't be! She saw through me?' I thought as a smile played on my face, 'to be honest, I expected her to notice.' 

I followed her and went beside her "Where do you want to go?" I asked her, she looked at me and smiled "There is this cafe that opened not that far away, let's go there." She said and we both there.

....

We have already arrived at the cafe 20 minutes ago, so far she hasn't said anything other than look at me.

"Getting irritated?" She said with giggled and looked at me as she placed her hands on the table.

"Tell me...who are you?" I asked her and she shrugged her shoulders "Don't you think it is better if we got to know each other first?" She said with a smile "What do you have in mind?" I asked her.

"Let' play a game we each ask each other questions in turns, one question at the time up to 15 questions. How about it?" She asked me "I down with it... but let's make it more fun by haveing a bet, what do you say?" I asked her "Go on." she said with a smile.

"My bet is that I can make you join my side before all my 15 questions are up, so if I win and you do join me you have to do something I want, but on the other hand if I can't make you join me before all 15 questions are up then I will do one thing you want. What do you say?" I asked her and she smiled at me "Bring it on, I wonder how you will make me follow you." She said

"So who will start?" I asked her.

"You can start but, you are not allowed to ask questions about anything outside this world if you know what I mean." She said with a grin and I raised an eyebrow in surprise 'Does that mean she is not from earth?' I thought as I was thinking about my next questions.

"Then I will start, my first question is..."I hesitated about my first question before I smiled "What are the 5 words that best describe you?" 

She was quiet for a moment before she spoke "Benevolent, Ruthless, Unpredictable, Faithful, and Prideful." She said and I smiled.

"My turn, What is your goal?" She asked me and I smiled "I am going to take over this world." I said and she smiled at my straightforwardness. 'It's not like it's a secret or anything.' I thought.

"My turn... What are your 3 biggest character flaws?" I asked her.

"Talkative, Aimless, and Bold." She said and I smiled satisfied with her answer.

"Now it's my turn... What are the 5 words that best describe you?" She said and I was surprised as she asked me the same question I asked her at the start.

"The five words that I feel best to describe me are resilient, ambitious, optimistic, determined and Ruthless," I said with a smile before signalling that it was my turn.

"My third question for you is... If you are in a bad mood, do you prefer to be left alone or have someone to cheer you up?" I asked her.

She was quite hesitant before she said: "Left alone."  I nodded as I took out a pen and paper "She wants...Cheer.. Her up." I mumbled and she raised both her eyebrows "That's not what..." I stopped her by raising my hand.

"It's your turn, hurry up and give me a question," I said.

"My question for you is... Do you judge a book by its cover?" She said "No." I said without any hesitation.

"My fourth question is..." I went silent for a while thinking about what question I should ask, after a while I smiled and looked at her "What was the strange energy you used yesterday?" I asked her and she frowned "Mana." She blurted out and the smile on my face disappeared.

'She doesn't seem to be lying and the fact that I have never felt such a strange energy before would further prove her answer right, but Mana? Are you fucking with me?' I thought.

What did this prove and mean? 

This proved that she is not from this world and it implied that where ever she came from they had magic, this made me want her on my side even more.

"My turn...If you try to fail and succeed, which one have you done?" I asked her.

"I don't know, what kind of question was that?" I asked me and I didn't reply as I put some random words on my note before looking at her and tilting my head while clicking my tongue, she was frowning the whole time.

"What did you write down?" She asked me and I smiled "Something random." I said.

"Doesn't matter, now that it's my tur..." I stopped her before she could finsh by raising my hand, "what are you doing, it's my turn." I said and she looked at me with a confused expression.

"What do you mean it's your turn, I already answered your question, so that makes this my turn." She said and I smiled.

"Your question was 'What did you write down?' and I answered, which makes it my turn." I said with a smile and she let out a sigh as she realised that I trapped her.

"My question is... Who was the first person to look at a cow and say, "I think I'll squeeze these dangly things here, and drink whatever comes out!" I asked and she showed a confused expression "I don't know." She said.

"Is that so," I mumbled while adding Qi to my voice making it so only she could hear me. She raised and eyebrow "What was that?" She asked me and I smiled "I don't know." 

Looking at my cunning grin made her realise what just happened "Not again!" She said as her eye turned cold.

"You getting the hang of this, now onto my next question... Would you kill the people important you for your own good?" I asked her "Of crouse not, what makes you say th..." Before she continued he placed her hands on her mouth and I laughed.

"I almost had you there." I said and she let out a sigh of relief before looking at me with a serious face "Why are you asking me these kinds of questions?" She asked me "I want you to waste the amount of questions you have. Anyway, it's my turn now." I said as I looked into her eyes.

"If firefighters fight the fire, then what do freedom fighters fight?" I asked her.

"Freedom." she blurted out without thinking about it "Fuck you and these questions." She said with an angry tone.

"Oh, my," I said as I took out my pen and started to write random things on it again with a serious face, I kept looking up at her before looking at my notes.

"What are you writing now?" She said before she realised what happened again. She closed her eye for a while before opening them.

"I am writing random things, anyway it's my turn again," I said with a smile.

"I don't think there is anything else I need to do now, I know fully what type of person you are so let's get to the chase, this is my last question and this question is what will make you join me," I said with a serious expression.

She shrugged her shoulders "Hump." 

"If you don't join me then the people you care for in this world would die but if you do there is a chance they might live, so knowing this would you join me?" I asked her and her eyes turned cold "Are you threading me?" She asked me and I tilted my head sideways.

"I won't be the one hurting them, but there is something else, so answer my question would you?" I asked her again.

"Why would I join you, if there is someone out there who has the guts let them try I will kill them before they even realise." She said with a prideful tone.

"It's not 'someone' but 'something', so tell me, would you or would you not?" I asked her for the third time.

"If it was something I could not handle on my own the I would." She said and I smiled "Good, it's great to have you on my side." I said and she frowned "I didn't join you yet so why don't you tell me what it is first? this is my question to you." She said.

"A XXXXXXXX," I said and she widens her eyes in surprise as she went out of the cafe and looked up towards the sky, I paid for the drinks and went outside and stood next to her.

I looked at her and closed her mouth which she opened in shock.

"By the way, this means I win the bet right?" I asked her with a smirk.
