DAY 15

NIGHT

♦

IN FRONT OF THE CAVE

THE TENT

I WOKE UP in the middle of the night and decided to clear my head by taking a walk in the woods. I couldn’t step into the cave, after all. The girls would totally call the cops on me if they caught me creeping around at night.

I chanced upon the meathead jocks.

“Oh, hey there,” I said.

“Haruka!” one said. “We froze when we heard someone coming. Who knows what’s out here when it’s this dark?”

“So, why were you trying to follow me? Oh wait, it’s because you’re all idiots.”

“Hey, shut your damn mouth! We’re not idiots!”

Ugh. Loud, irritable, and rude!

“Guys, do you know how suspicious it looks to find you creeping around, stalking a bunch of high school girls in the middle of the night? Only idiots would get caught red-handed like that. Therefore, without a doubt, you’re idiots.”

“We weren’t stalking the girls! We’re here for you!”

I shrugged in surprise. “Didn’t know you guys swung that way.”

“Whoa, we’re not gay! We—we don’t even like BL!”

Loud, irritable, rude, and with a mind in the gutter!

“Well, why exactly are you hiding from the girls?”

“Can’t trust ’em.”

“You can’t trust them? You guys left the nerds to their fate and did nothing when the other guys attacked the girls! Pretty inexcusable to bring up trust, know what I mean?”

“You’re right. I just…I just don’t trust ’em.”

The meatheads looked like they were struggling to express their thoughts. Normally, idiots had no filter between brain and mouth, but it looked like they were trying to think. I wish they’d just leave instead.

“What idiotic rationale could you possibly have to distrust them? Just for the sake of pure idiot clarity, can you answer?”

“Pure idiot clarity? Bro, didn’t you hear about how Katsuyama and his friends used Puppetry and Mesmerize?”

“Yeah, I heard. The nerds told me.”

The meathead knit his brows in thought. Wait, “in thought?” Since when could those words describe this meathead? Did this world transform him?

“We couldn’t trust anyone after that.”

“That makes no sense,” I said. “The nerds and the other girls aren’t like those garbage delinquents.”

“You still don’t get it?!”

“I might just not be stupid enough to see what’s so obvious to you. I’m trying, though. If I can figure out what you guys are talking about, I might be able to understand creatures as stupid as goblins. Actually, have you tried talking with the goblins? You’re on about the same intellectual level, so you should get along just dandy.”

“Shut the hell up! You’re always such a dick!”

I was shocked. The jocks weren’t totally witless after all. Could they have a legitimate concern?

“You’re worried about Hijack, right?” I asked.

“Yeah, bro! Everyone was making a huge fuss about Puppetry and Mesmerize, but no one said nothing about Hijack! The Class Rep and the nerds warned us that we should hide our skills. So, I was thinking—who’s got Hijack?”

“How stupid can you get? Even after all their advice, you still let your guard down around me. What if I have Hijack? Too late for you to hide now, isn’t it?!”

“If you have it, then so be it.
