Chapter 2 --- Meet Beemo.

Paperworks kept rushing in and Pato was stressed out. "Ugh, all these reports to do." The sound of gossiping and typing filled the air. The office was full with Donors and Moderators. Pato gave a disturbed look at everyone. "Aye! Potato-head! Stop slacking off!" Pato looked back at the short-haired brunette. Showing her cunning expression as usual. Her hair swayed as she walked towards the emotional Pato.

She banged her hands on his desk only to shock him. "Wh-what is it?!" Pato answered the aggresive woman. "If you're gonna be sloppy, you will have to face me!" Pato groaned. "Yes Kate, the princess." He said sarcastically. Kate fisted her hands. She gave an irritated look at the now giggling Pato. "Why, yo-" someone cut her off and she swung her head around. Her angry look dropped into astonishment.

A tall guy was facing her, trying to as some questions. But, she wasn't at all looking at him in the first place. She was looking at a girl talking to someone. Kate's eyes gazed at her across the room. Kate was snapped out by a tap on her shoulder by Pato. "Hey? You okay? What were you looking at? I handled that guy off for you just now." Kate was trying to recall what Pato was saying. She then blinked.

"Oh, sorry. Um.. who's that girl over there? The one talking Mossy.". "Beats me". "I've never seen her before. Is she a new Donor?". "Maybe". "She looks cute~". "Shut up, you lesbian" Kate punched Pato in the shoulder. "Ow!" Both gave a small giggle.The girl that Kate mention was observing them. A frown merged from her face. She lowered her head.

"Beemo?" a voice said. She looked up seeing a worried De-el. "Are you okay?" Beemo nodded. "You're quiet as usual. I see you looking at Pato. Why don't you go say Hi to him?" Beemo blushed at what De-el said. "I.. I can't see him." She said. "Why not?" Beemo looked straight back at De-el. Her cyan eyes filled with intimidation. "I guess you're scared." De-el held Beemo's hand and pulled her towards Pato. "N-no!" She whispered in her mind trying to pull away her hand softly.

Kate's eyes gleamed with excitement. "Ahh~ Beemo, you're so cuute! I'm jellyyyy!~" Kate jumped up an down in excitement. Beemo just gave her an innocent look. Most of the time, she gazed at Pato who so happen to be gazing back at her. "Excuse me, I'll be right back." Pato got up from his chair and walk towards the bathroom behind Beemo. Something tripped him and he fell on top of Beemo.

The room was quiet for once. Everyone stared at the two people on the ground. Both blushed. "Um.. my chest..". "A-ah! Sorry!.." Pato drew back his hand. "You IDIOT!!" Kate started kicking Pato. "H-hey! Stooop!" De-el lend a hand to Beemo for her to get up. The four of them paused as a sort of sly laughter annoyed them. There stood a guy laughing uncontrollably at them. "Whats the matter with you, Dinesh?" De-el gave an annoying look at him as usual.

"Ahahaha!! I'm the one who tripped Pato! Ahaha! I'm sorry, it's too funny." De-el and Pato were annoyed. Dinesh cleared his throat. "Forgive me, that was silly." Pato shot out his arms out at Dinesh, grabbing his neck firmly. Dinesh just gave him the creepy smirk as if he had an advantage to Pato's action. The three boys started laughing and fighting playfully.

*splash*... *splash*... *slosh*...

..*squeak*..

Beemo stared intensly at the bathroom mirror as water trickled down her face. "They look like they're having fun..." she wiped her face with a towel and walked out of the bathroom. She passed another girl who seem to be viewing some images on her phone. Beemo took a peek before she walked away.

She froze.

That girl was viewing images of Pato that the girl took. Beemo's eyes widened with jealousy.

*thud* "NO!" *thud* .. *smash*

"Whats happening?" De-el questioned. Kate, Pato, De-el and Dinesh listened to the sounds which were coming from the bathroom. The four of them creeked open the bathroom door revealing a huge mess. Toilet rolls were spread everywhere. The walls and floor covered with smudges of blood. The mirror was cracked into two. The back door of the bathroom was wide open. The four of them gazed in horror.

Dinesh's gaze fade off easily. He then put on a smirk on his face as if he knew this had happen. Pato ran out of the bathroom using the back door. De-el followed behind. Kate just looked at Dinesh who was smirking to himself. "Wh-why are you smiling about?" Dinesh ignored her words and walked calmly towards the back door taking the left turn instead of the right. Kate just stood there. Terrified.

*pant* *pant* *huff* *pant* ... "Ack!" *thud* "NO! PLEASE!"

The woman was cornered at a back alley. Her face utterly terrified. She backed up until her back was pressed against the wall. She stared in horror at the killer. "W-what do you w-want from m-ME!?" The killer gave no reaction. Sweat trickled down the woman's face. As the killer raised the blade it held, she could see her own reflection. She knew her life would end.

*slack* *slash* *slosh* ....

Blood covered the entire wall. There lied the dead body of the woman. The killer dropped the knife, cackling softly. She smiled. Beemo took a few steps bending over and picking up the woman's phone with her bloody hands. She turned to walk away but paused. Beemo's eyes widened. There stood Dinesh, giving her a cunning look. "I knew it was you.." he said and disappeared. Beemo fell to her knees.


"...What horrible monster have I become?.."
