Assassins

Dropping the Water Bomb

A/N: Just a little side note, the game makers (Melanie and Miltia) are unable to play Assassins, as they are the ones organizing the game. They know everyone’s target and have a grand list. In the end, they get money as well along with the winner, because they took the time to organize and plan everything out.

*Assassins*

FRIDAY

Yang was sitting in her last class, which was English. The whole school day was like a blur to Yang. Everyone, which means literally everyone, was talking about their targets. What their target does, where they are at certain times; basic information gathering and recon. Assassins was the talk of the senior class, which was expected, especially since there was a fairly large grand prize. Even some juniors were gossiping, willing to help out their upperclassmen.

Today was the day Assassins started, the most important day. At 3:15 P.M, the die will have been cast. Now that everyone had their targets and assassins assigned, people just couldn’t seem to keep their mouths shut. The blonde couldn’t keep tabs on all the information she was given throughout the day. Many rumors were flying already about whose assassin was whose, and their targets.

Of course, Yang couldn’t help but wonder who her assassin was, who wouldn’t? The blonde just hoped he or she was a dumbass and would make a stupid mistake. She wanted them to reveal themselves immediately. She knew that would be too good to be true. If they did reveal themselves soon, she needed to study her assassin’s car in order to avoid it. She was going to be cautious. After all, she was most vulnerable during the 15 minutes she is on her way home from school. And speaking of Assassins, Yang still needed to talk to Ren about the band schedule.

The last bell rang, and the blonde rushed to Ren’s locker, knowing he was about to leave for an appointment.

Yang and Ren’s relationship isn’t complex in any sense of the word. They met in middle school and, being polar opposites, somehow got along. It was probably due to the fact that they have an "opposites attract" scenario. She has golden blonde hair with an outgoing personality, and Ren had black hair with that single pink streak on his bangs, which she had a sneaking suspicion that Nora was involved in, as well as the fact that he is often aloof and withdrawn from the rest of the group.

Yang saw a green and black blob in the distance that were talking to each other. They were standing by the lockers and she jogged towards them in the crowded halls, “Hey Blakey.” She paused, “Ren.” Yang nodded her head and looked directly at Ren. “Sorry to break up the convo between ninjas, but could I talk to you alone for just a second?”

Ren nodded and they went into a more secluded corner of the lockers, leaving Blake behind. However, Blake was in the distance, staring at the two while they were having their conversation. In fact, to any onlooker, it would seem as if there two were having a secret meeting of sorts.

Ren was wearing a simple dark green t-shirt that was hugging his body tightly. He wore jeans and matching tennis shoes. Ren’s favorite color is green, so spotting him in a crowd whenever you wanted to was pretty easy. Ren scratched his head, “What is it?”

“Could you please give me the band schedule? I’ll admit, it does have to do with Assassins, but i’m sure you already figured that out.” Yang gave a shy smile. She could only hope Ren wouldn’t suspect her of being Ren’s assassin, after all this game was one where participants have to be smart. If she lost Ren's trust, her job would have gotten MUCH more difficult.
