Everyone was done with their turn, it was finally mine. 'Shit, what if Shoto recognizes me? I doubt he wouldn't.' I thought, a pang of guilt hitting my heart. When he'll recognize me will he be upset or worried?'Since I don't want to deal with those thoughts right now, I pushed them back and readied myself behind the starting line, cocking the airsoft handgun in preparation. 'Well if Shoto will be looking at us the whole time, I might as well enjoy it.' I smirked to myself.

"3... 2... 1... Begin!" The camp counselor announced much to everyone's anticipation

Once the countdown was done I immediately felt a pair of eyes boring into my very soul. I guess it didn't take much time for him to recognize me. Of course he's my boyfriend so he better recognize me, I'd be somewhat offended if he didn't.

Plus I also didn't mind the attention on me, in fact I was more than happy for it. It gave me motivation to do my best, well not absolutely best since I could get caught but you know what I mean.

Guns began to rapidly fire at me, luckily I managed to run and dodged them, seeking shelter behind a tree. But that didn't stop them from still trying to hit me. I can heard the rapid firing and the ammos hitting the bark of the tree.

I can't stay here for much longer. I need to move and I haven't even shot my gun yet. Looking at my surroundings for anything that can help me I spotted a handgun magazine nearby, I managed to grab it with my foot. Extending it and kicking it in the air towards me. I caught it with my hand and began to formulate a plan.

I should have really formulated a plan beforehand, but it was unexpected that I would actually participate in this silly competition. Instead of whining and sulking around, I decided to make my next move. Which was to climb up the tree and shoot down the 2 umbrella men.

"How come they weren't shooting the others down? It's only me. God, Shoto is gonna be so worried after this." I grimaced

'The ones running this camp might already know who I am, so that's why they're shooting at me. Testing if their theory and hunch is correct.' If what I was thinking was right then I shouldn't really show off my skills. I now realized that taking Momo's place in this competition was a stupid idea.

To risk or not to risk. And I chose to risk it. This game could be the reason why my identity is compromised and everything that I had built up will be wasted. 'No! I need to keep being level headed! But then again... What's life without a little risk? A boring one that's for sure. Also not unless I prove to them I'm someone else then my identity wouldn't really become compromised. I could purposely get shot or even shoot myself.

Then that alone could prove I'm insolent, when it comes to this kinda stuff. Yes! That's just what I needed! I can turn this whole situation around. 'I'll just shoot myself first then those men. If they shoot me, they could actually hit a place that's vital or really hurts.' Putting my plan into action, I shot myself in 3 different non-vital areas. Making sure that they'll bruise up.

"Shit, okay that really hurts. Shoto you better kiss these boo-boo's away later." I hissed in pain

'You've felt even more shitty when a bullet actually pierced into you, so don't complain.' I thought to myself, looking back at the 2 men who continuously shot the tree, I easily shot them down. Making sure that they won't get back up so easily. The 2 camp counselors, Watanabe Ren and Yoshinda Akane looked shocked as they watched the 2 men fall helplessly.

Not only them but everyone as well looked shocked. I'll have to do a bit of explaining later. I dropped to the ground and easily and quickly shot down all the targets in one place, not bothering to move to have aim at them.

Once my rapid firing had ceased, because I was out of ammo, I pulled out a handgun magazine I found beforehand and reloaded like it was no biggie. I was a natural at it. Then I kept shouting down the targets, not missing a single one.
