Fate Online: Shadow

"You’re here again! Didn’t Cathy told you before that she doesn’t ever want to see you again!?" her dark-skinned friend growled angrily.

"That’s right, it would be better for you to leave now Mister. You don’t want to cause a mess here as you’re already stepping in school grounds" the other girl who has copper-like hair said.

The man didn’t even bother to heed their words and just looked at Cathy and said, "Cathy, please. Will you talk to me? I’m sorry about everything! Please!"

His voice attracted more attention to them than it already is, and without anyone noticing it, his eyes seemed to indicate that he was satisfied with the attention he managed to attract towards them.

’Hmmm! Let’s see if you still won’t talk to me after this. I’m pretty sure girls around your age really cares about your reputation around your school’ the man thought maliciously.

"Shut up! I don’t know who you are, so leave me alone!" Cathy angrily said as she doesn’t seem even bothered about the people watching them.

"Let’s go, girls, ignore him!"

Cathy angrily said and she started walking away, while her two friends snorted towards the man and followed after Cathy.

"I’m your father! How dare you turn your back on me!?" the man suddenly yelled angrily which shocked the students around them.

When Cathy heard what he said, she stopped and slowly turned around and looked at the man.

"Father? I never had a father growing up, how dare you say you’re my father after leaving us and running away with a younger woman when my mom was still pregnant with Summer!?"

"I told you again and again that I don’t ever wanna see your face, or even talk to you! You’re not my father, you’re just a horny as*hole who’s trying to get back with my mom, and you’re trying to use me because you know that mom would certainly kick your stupid as*!"

Cathy grinned and slowly walked towards him, and stopped just three meters away from the man.

"You know what? F*ck you!"

She gave the man the almighty double middle finger on his face!

Seeing her actions, the man was suddenly consumed with anger and raised one of his hands and smack it towards Cathy’s face!

She just stood there and glared at him, as she didn’t even care at the hand that was about to strike her face.

It was because...

"How dare you, you bastard?" a voice suddenly sounded from behind the man, and his hand that was just about to slap the daylights out of Cathy was suddenly caught into a vice grip.

The people were relieved after seeing that, and finally, some security guards and some teachers are already heading towards them after learning about the commotion happening on their school entrance.

The man turned around and saw a scary looking dude, whose face right now looks like a demon that had just descended from hell!

"Who the fack are you? Can’t you see tha-"

Slap!

The man didn’t manage to finish what he was about to say when a huge resounding slap landed on his face, and the people around them even flinched from how powerful the sound of that slap was.

The man held his cheek, and then looked at Viper with rage-filled eyes and said, "Did you just facking slapped me!? Do you kn-"

Slap!

"Yeah, I did, twice! Motherfacker!"

"Language!" a certain teacher yelled, the teachers and the security guards already arrived a few seconds earlier, and they were just about to intervene but decided not to when they saw Viper. It was because they were already familiar with the man, as they knew that she’s Cathy’s soon to be a stepfather.

"Sorry!" Viper said to the teachers.

"And you man? I don’t care who you are or what you do. I’m advising you to never appear in front of Cathy, or else.."

"Or else what? I’m her father! It’s my right to-"

Slap!

VIper once again slapped the man, and this time it was even harder than the first two that the man even fell on the ground, and Cathy and her friends just watched the one-sided slapping onslaught with shock in their eyes.

The teachers wanted to get the students inside the school building but failed to because the students are clearly more interested in what’s currently happening right now, that even detention failed to scare them.

"Her father?" Viper laughed.

"Your fatherhood came to an end the moment you left Olivia and her kids. How dare you strut around calling yourself her father?"

The man slowly stood up while holding one of his cheeks as he glared hatefully at Viper.

"Why do you care? Who the fack are you to tell me that!?"

"Me? Well..." Viper shrugged his shoulders and slowly walked beside Cathy and put his arms around her shoulders and said haughtily, "I’m her father, and we don’t know who the hell you are. My daughter did tell me before that a man had been constantly harassing her for the past few days, we even reported it to the police and the school administration, and got the man to stay a night or two in jail, but the harassment still continued after that. Could it be that you’re a stalker mister?"

Viper acted shocked and horrified, and the people around them, no matter how young and old they are, laughed. It was because they quickly realized that Viper is deliberate putting a label on the head of Cathy’s so-called Father.

Deliberately putting a legitimate reason about why Viper had hit the man, and with how the event turned out, the people around them especially the parents would surely act as Viper’s "witnesses".

After all, who likes cheaters?

Even a cheater wouldn’t like a fellow cheater.

Cathy suddenly felt warm and safe when Viper wrapped his hand around her shoulders, and her eyes couldn’t help but turn red as she tried not to cry.

"Why you!"

Viper let go of Cathy and slowly walked towards the man, as both men stood facing each other, with only a few inches separating them from almost kissing each other, but Viper was clearly looking down on as he was a few inches taller than the man.

"Hehehe" Viper grinned, as his eyes turned increasingly cold.

Slap! Slap! Slap!

"Schsop!"

Slap!

"Pwease!"

Slap!

"Ish hurlts!"
