Clever || S. Chishiya

.02

Fifteen seconds of silence passed. Chishiya found that he didn't hate her company. Her uncaring attitude was much more enjoyable than the panicking of everyone else. That didn't mean he cared about her, she was just the smartest person here.

"Chishiya."

She glanced at his now outstretched hand, debating. What's one person knowing her name going to do?

"Sora." She grabbed his hand and shook it. He smirked a bit at her actions. She quickly dropped his hand and kept looking around, watching people be dumb and try to open all the doors.

"The game will now commence. The time limit is 20 minutes. Game start. The tagger is on the move."

Pretty much everyone in the building froze. Sora wondered where the tagger would start, and if someone would succeed in finding the safe haven. Suddenly, a loud trumpet sounded. After that, the building was deathly silent. Everyone was looking for the so called tagger.

"You'd think these people would be smart enough to work together." Sora mumbled, mostly to herself.

"In this world, it's every man for themselves." Chishiya answered.

"Working together to find the haven would save you the work of finding it yourself and going through all 724 doors of this place. There's a reason the master choose this building." He had to admit, she had a point.

"Three minutes have passed."

"You know how many doors there are?" He glanced at her. She grew quiet at that, ignoring him completely. That's when Chishiya realized she slipped up. Somehow, she knew this building and she wasn't willing to give it up.

That's when it happened, the first round of gunshots. Sora would of fallen off the side of the building if she hadn't of been so lost in thought that she barely heard it. Chishiya didn't seem all that surprised.

"Maybe you should get down." He suggested. "One wrong move and you're down for the count."

He wasn't wrong. If the tagger came up here or saw her, he could easily shoot her or push her down. But Sora liked the thrill. Still, if she wanted to survive she had to get down.

So she swung her leg over and hopped down, following the male not too far from her and leaning against the wall. She wasn't very tall, but her height was enough to see everything.

"EVERYONE! THE TAGGER IS CURRENTLY AT THE SECOND LEVEL OF THE CENTRAL AREA! THE TAGGER HAS BAD VISION BECAUSE OF HIS MASK! LETS INFORM EACH OTHER OF THR TAGGERS LOCATION AND SEARCH FOR THE SAFE-ZONE TOGETHER!"

Sora nodded, silently agreeing it was a good idea, well if anyone responded. People were more than likely too afraid to answer. But the smart ones, the ones who have already played, might.

"It's a good idea, but no one will respond." Chishiya spoke.

"Hmm, we'll see." He looked at her, seeing the teasing smile on her face. This was the first emotion shes shown since the moment they met.

"THE TAGGER IS MOVING FROM THE FOURTH LEVEL TO THE CENTRAL AREA! ANYONE NEARBY RUN!" a girl suddenly shouted. A smirk spread across Sora's face as Chishiyas turned into a shocked one.

"Really?" He mumbled. Sora laughed a bit, knowing she was right. He just shook his head at her cockiness.

The girl who shouted was trying to save a woman, but failed. The tagger came around the corner so the girl went running and climbed up the side of the building. Sora cringed at the physically effort that must of took.

"Oo, a climber?" Chishiya mumbled. "She's pretty good."

"Probably a mountain climber in her time in the original world. Although buildings are much different than mountains." Sora commented, leaning her head on her hand out of boredom. If this tagger didn't slip up soon, or someone find the safe place, they were all doomed.
