  She was finally done with her essay. Kit turned off her computer, and as she was standing up, she decided to get a snack. She walked towards the kitchen and opened the fridge. She saw some yogurt she didn't remember buying. It was blueberry flavored, and because of this, it reminded her of Zurui for some reason. Kit grabbed the yogurt, and once she closed the fridge, lightning struck. Kit flinched upon hearing the lighting, so she accidentally dropped the yogurt. She picked it up and turned around. She flinched again because Zurui was there.

  "Oh, god. You scared me." Kit uttered.

  "Oh, I'm terribly sorry." Zurui said while slightly grinning.

  Kit turned to face the kitchen drawer, and she grabbed a spoon near it. She turned back to Zurui. "What are you doing here?" She asked.

  Zurui sniffed the air. "I smell blueberries." He said, eyeing the yogurt Kit just opened. "Do you perhaps have more?"

  Kit nodded. "Help yourself." Zurui excitedly grabbed two yogurt cups from the fridge and a spoon from the kitchen drawer. He then started to eat the yogurt gleefully.

"So, what do you want." Kit asked.

  Zurui looked at her as if he had forgotten why he was there. "Oh, yes. My apologies. It seems I've gotten a bit distracted." He chuckled and put a spoonful of yogurt in his mouth. "I'm here to inform you of a job I've received."

  "Give me the details." Kit said.

  Once Kit said those words, the atmosphere changed. Zurui became extremely serious. "Our target is a teacher from Eclipse University. Her name is Deborah Green, and she teaches chemistry to seniors."

  "Why is she a target?" Kit asked.

  "Well, as I said before, I don't ask my employers any questions, but there's something about her being a drug dealer. I think it was that she goes to nightclubs and secretly sells drugs in the alley." Zurui said.

  Kit crossed her arms. "What do you need me to do?"

  Zurui didn't answer immediately since he was eating his yogurt. "I need you to make a reservation." He said with his mouth full of yogurt.

  Kit was surprised he needed something so simple. "A reservation?"

  He swallowed the yogurt. "Yes. I need you to make a reservation for Moon nightclub. You see, during the afternoon, I did some investigating and found out Miss Green is choosing Moon nightclub as her next target to sell drugs. Oh yes, and make sure the reservation is for tomorrow at 9pm." He blew her a kiss and disappeared.Kit sighed and went to her room to grab her phone. She was about to put the phone number but didn't know it. She groaned. She slumped on the bed, and something fell on her face. It was a note with the club's phone number. At the bottom of the note, it had Zurui's name written and a small heart drawn next to it. Kit dialed the phone number.

  She woke up to hear her awful alarm. Kit got ready and walked down to the bus stop. She later arrived at Eclipse University.

  "Hey Kit!" Alexander approached Kit. "Oh, wow. You're looking pretty tired today."

"Yeah, I stayed up late finishing my essay." Kit said.

  "You really should stop finishing your homework at the last minute. It's the reason why you're always tired." Alexander scolded.

"Says the one who stays up playing videogames all night." Kit teased.

Alexander blushed. "Hey! I don't do that anymore!"

"Yeah, ok." Kit didn't believe him.

"Well, all of that aside, are you doing anything tonight?" Alexander asked.

"Oh, sorry. I'm going to a nightclub with my new friend." Kit said.

  Alexander looked surprised. "You?! You're going to a nightclub!? I thought you didn't like parties?"

  Kit sighed. "Well, my friend was able to convince me to go."

Alexander crossed his arms. "Is it Levi who convinced you to go?" Kit nodded.

Ding dong dang doong

  That was the first warning to get to class. "Ah, we better get going!" Alexander grabbed Kit by the wrist and pulled her. They ran inside and down the hall. They arrived at a door that was the entrance to their classroom. When they opened the door, a girl zoomed inside the classroom.

"Kimishu Zhang, you're late." Said Professor Sable. The girl bowed down to apologize.

  "I'm so sorry, Professor! It's just that I missed the bus and had to run all the way here!" She kept bowing up and down.

  Professor Sable forgave her and said to never be late again. Kimishu sat down on a nearby desk. She was trembling. Kit sat down behind her.

"Looks like you haven't changed at all." Kit whispered to Kimishu.

  Kimishu turned around, and when she saw Kit, she smiled. "Kit! Long time no see!" When she yelled those words, the professor gave Kimishu an irritated look. When Kimishu noticed, she quickly sat up straight and shut her mouth.

  "Alright, hopefully Miss Zhang will stop interrupting." She went quiet and gave Kimishu a cold look. "Now, let's begin, shall we?"
