lollipop • chishiya shuntarou

stretching her arm, a wide grin etched in her lips as she threw the pipe away before heading the back door.

behind her were two unconscious guys, beaten to a pulp.

it was surprisingly easy for her to knock them down, two swift hit to their heads and they were both already asleep on the ground. she groaned in annoyance wanting more action but dismissed it. she was just happy that she didn't have to see their blood.

closing the door she strutted away to an abandoned store filled with furnitures. making her way to the bed, she made sure her purse was beside her and her cards were hidden under the side of her bra.

laying down, her head went back to what the guys were saying earlier before she made them sleep... probably forever.

"aguni wanted you to join the beach, you'd be useful"

the beach huh? she thought. it seemed like an interesting place. who was she kidding? she'd already seen the flashy place before, it wasn't entirely hidden with all the party lights and blaring music the place held every night.

feeling the urge to smoke, she quickly took a lollipop, popping it inside her mouth.

with that her mind traveled to a certain blonde that she met earlier. his annoyed face made her smile to herself. how she'd love to see that again.

with him in thought she took the paper that she stole earlier. sitting up straight she looked at it. it was all too familiar for her not to know where it lead to.

the circle with an all too familiar scribble of lines was a map. one she was too familiar with considering her line of work.

she decided to sleep then investigate tomorrow morning. laying her head her mind wandered to her game three days ago.

7 of hearts.

hearts. only one can survive that's for sure, she thought.

in the past 4 days she'd been in borderland she found that hearts games and spades are her definite favorites among the 4. she can clear diamonds that's for sure but clubs are the ones she hated the most. what usually happens with her in a game of clubs is either she let them do the work, only help when needed or she'd full out just order all of them around to be able to clear the game.

tonight's game however was interesting for her. among the ten players including herself there was one player who got shot inside one of the rooms of the building. she was shot on her thighs, deeming her unable to stand, but nonetheless she was still alive... barely.

the rules of the game was to find the killer before the allotted time was over, which is an hour. if they found out who before the time run out then the killer will die whilst they all will survive and if they don't, only the killer will live.

at the same time it was announced that there could be cards hidden inside. special ones that can extend their visas to be exact.

at the sound of free cards everyone bolted inside to go and find it. as for sachi she scoffed. the announcer said there 'could' be, never said that there really was. knowing it was a hearts game, she never bothered to go find the cards.

instead she waited for the killer to kill someone as she explored the building. everyone was wary of each other, never wanting to be in the same place with one another.

what baffled sachi however is. how'd did the killer find out that 'she/he' was the killer?. it wasn't like her first game where their roles where shown through the phone. there was nothing at all.

the mystery excites her but the scream and gun shot heard though out the entire building brought goosebumps all over her body.. the good kinds.

walking outside the room she walked through the hallway where she saw the other players came out of the other rooms, heading where the sound was heard.

a crowd surrounded a high school student sat on the floor, thighs bleeding. her blood pooled the floors as her heart wrenching wails was heard. every one pitied her.

"ne, so who's the killer?"sachi spoke from behind the crowd, a red lollipop was seen between her lips.

with those words everyone's eyes darted to the girl expectantly.

the girl wiped her tears before her hands rose to point to a guy.

the guy, who looked like sachi's age. glasses adorned his freckled face, eyes widening and jaw dropping as his heart went wild in a panic at her accusation. "n-n-no what are you saying?! it wasn't me!" he said in utter horror.. or was it all an act?

seeing his reaction amused sachi as she watched the scene play before her eyes. the players took a hold of him as he trashed around screaming and denying, everyone's attention was on him... but ofcourse not sachi.

her eyes were trained to the bloody girl as she sneakily removed her lollipop to pop a pill inside her mouth. damn is she a bloody mess or what?

the players were hellbent on taking the guy to the first room and place him on the 'killer's' chair. where they report who the killer is.

"why don't we tie him up for now then?" sachi said with an innocent smile.

"why the hell would we do that when we could just report him right away?" one of the stupid looking guy asked.

popping her lollipop back into her mouth she spoke" if you report him, the game would be cleared and you won't be able to find the cards right?" she explained.

the players looked at each other in realization before tying the denial killer down. " since you suggested it, you stay here " the guy said at sachi before leaving.

she scoffed in annoyance, she hated being ordered around.

everyone left and she was now alone with the tied up guy and the barely alive girl.

turning around to face both, a sinister smile adorned her face.

"now tell me.. why would you shoot yourself?"
