《Different》Chapter 24 - Terrible Roommate
Advertisement
Soro started slowly stepping back. He held his hands up ready to protect him self.
"Hey, hey relax"
Toumo got up. He began rolling up his sleeves whilst activating his ability.
"So you got away last time eh ?"
"Let me explain..."
Toumo stared at Soro dead in the eye. He had no intention of holding back against Soro. Not even one bit.
"You made me look like a fool in front of those ladies when you disappeared !"
He started to generate glowing ropes around him. Soro started sweating.
"Wait, I didn't mean to disappear"
"Save it for the ropes"
The ropes he had created began hastily taking the form of a spear. Soro turned around and ran out of the room. Toumo chased after him.
"Get back here you little sh*t !"
He began launching spears made out of tangled ropes at Soro with every spear nearly hitting his foot.
["Why did he have to be my room mate ?"]
Soro manged to safely exit the dorm while still being chased. Toumo was far too infuriated to even realize that he was wearing nothing but boxers underneath. He stopped for a moment to concentrate on his ability. All the ropes he generated began tangling together to form one giant spear, almost ten times bigger than the ones he was throwing. Soro could no longer hear the footsteps of Toumo chasing after him. He felt relief for a moment.
["Phew.....I think I finally lost him"]
He turned around to see the distance between them and spotted a enormous spear above Toumo.
"Oh dear lord....."
Toumo glanced at him as he smiled.
"Why don't you try and dodge this ?"
Toumo held both of his hands in the air, preparing to aim it at Soro's direction. Soro stood still in complete shock.

["What the hell do I do now ?"]
He closed his eyes.
["It's fight or flight and I know for a fact I can't fight against that. But I do know that I can run"]
He began controlling his breathing.
["It's about time I learn how to control this thing. I have to focus and imagine a place I have good memory of."]
Soro began visualizing the location of many different places he had been too. After a couple of seconds the image of the headmaster's office suddenly came to his mind.
["Wait a minute, I don't wanna go there !"]
It was way too late for him. He had completely vanished and appeared on the sofa he sat on during his meeting with the headmaster.
["What's this comfy feeling underneath my feet ?"]
Soro opened his eyes and looked below him.
["I'm at her office......this is bad"]
He looked around the room to try see if she was there. Luckily for him it was empty.
"Phew...."
["Let's get out of here now"]
He began heading towards the door. But he quickly had a change of mind as if the devil on his shoulder was now speaking to him.
["Wait a minute. I'm in the headmaster's office by my self. Doesn't this mean that I can look around here things and try find out who she really is ?"]
He stood still for a moment to collect his thoughts.
["I'll just look at a phew things and be gone"]
He walked up towards a desk full of papers.
["Let's see here..."]
He held up some of the papers.
["Hmm...these are all applications from other students"]
He put the papers down and crouched down to open one of the drawers on the desk. There was a folder inside. Soro picked it up and opened it a couple of documents inside. He read the title off of one of them.

["Project Erase ??"]
He turned over to look at the contents. At the very same moment he heard a sound of a door being unlocked.
["Oh no....."]
Soro quickly put the folder pack in place and shut the drawer. The door opened up. A sound of heels hitting the ground was heard.
["I have to get out of here. Imagine imagine imagine....."]
He began visualizing the room he was staying in at the dorms. He waited for a while then opened his eyes.
["It worked !"]
Soro looked around the room to make sure Toumo wasn't around. He gasped a breath of relief.
"Phew....that was close"
["I wonder what that "project erased" was all about. If there's one thing I know for sure, it's that I shouldn't trust that woman"]
He took his phone out from his pocket to check the time.
["2 PM. I still have time to look around. Who knows maybe I'll run into Akame on the way"]
He left the dorms and began exploring the area for a good while. He spotted Rika walking by and called out to her.
"Rika!"
She turned around in shock.
"Y-yes !? oh it's you Soro"
"What's up ?"
"I was just looking around the place"
"You're staying at the girls dorms right ?"
"Yes..."
"By any chance have you seen a girl with pink hair and eyes ?"
He held his hand up to his shoulder.
"About this tall"
Rika nodded.
"Yes. My roommate fits that description"
Soro jolted out in joy.
"Woah for real !?"
"Yes, her name is Akame. Why do you ask ?"
Soro scratched the back of his head and smirked.
"She's a good friend of mine"
"Ah"
"Anyways do you know where she is ?"
"Of course"

His devastated parents are reeling from the Recession, his friends are shiftless drunks, and his younger sister has been committed after discovering Jason's body. In an attempt to assuage the trauma his family has experienced and break away from his own shitty existence, Evan decides to grab his portion of the modern American Dream by trying out for that year's American Idol auditions in Nashville. Never mind that Evan's a 21-year-old virgin with a self-image as poor as his social skills. Never mind that he's never even attempted to sing before. In 21st century America, anything is possible, or so Evan's been told by a cultural upbringing of "Follow your dreams" and "Everyone is special" and "True love awaits". Speaking of true love, Evan asks Lily Trent to accompany him on the journey. Lily is a childhood acquaintance with whom he's recently reconnected and developed a crush on. Lately Lily's been working as a stripper, a cynical and jaded young woman who may or may not have her own motivations for joining Evan on the trip. Evan hopes the time alone will spark reciprocal affections in Lily, and an improbable come-from-nowhere triumph on national TV will not only free his family from their blue collar burdens, but win him the respect and love he craves-- not just from others, but from himself. Together, Evan and Lily discover why learning how to fail may be their generation's greatest lesson. Cover art by Gerry Siorek
