10:22 pm — apartment complex- Shibuyait has been an hour since the taggers began to haunt you all. you sighed to yourself and you pressed your hand onto your thigh, staining your hand red in blood. yes, you had gotten shot by now, but just because of that arisu guy. he tried to save you again, but this time it was a mistake. you had a plan how to get rid of one of the taggers, but of course he had to ruin it. you also noticed the guy with the hood stand on the fifth floor, watching the scene with amusement on his face, which annoyed you. but by now he had gone away, probably somewhere around the building, or already dead, like the other half of the players. they were all so stupid. but you couldn't complain now, since you got shot yourself.
you just had to kick them down. it's a simple job, right? you ran up to the tagger with the horse mask from behind and grabbed the pole of the railing, swinging around it, but suddenly, arisu yelled out of nowhere. "y/n!! watch out!" you heard his voice echoe through the entire building, making the tagger turn around. he suddenly pulled you back and the tagger began shooting bullets at the two of you, making you flinch at the sudden, sharp pain in your right thigh. you groaned and went into the staircase with arisu, and yes, you knew his name by now. you slapped him across the face, "this is your faul– argh!" you fell back against a wall as the pain in your thigh got worse, not even being able to form a complete sentence due to the pain. you closed your eyes tightly and ripped off a part of your jacket, wrapping it tightly around your thigh, over the wound of course to stop any bacteria to get up into other parts of your body. you reopened your eyes and glared at arisu, sighing before humping off to the next floor above you. he was still a bit shocked due to your slap, but quickly followed you. "y/n! you can't play in this condition." he said in worry as he wrapped his arm around your waist. you groaned, "and whose fault it that?! my plan would've worked if it wasn't for you!" you snapped back and slapped his arm away.
you began to try and open more apartment doors on the third floor. suddenly... click. your eyes widened and you smiled in relief, forgetting all your pain. "I found the safe roo–" your smile vanished as more gunshots went off, from inside of the room towards you. you dogged them and hid behind the wall, slamming the door shut before humping away quickly. "there is another tagger inside the safe room!" you shouted to inform the others. "time left: five minutes." how in the world were you going to beat the tagger inside the safe room and end the game in five minutes?! that was impossible. but, you weren't alone. arisu and the hood guy walked up to the room and went inside, they probably didn't hear you call. you were about to say something again, but Chishiya ran outside and let the door closed while arisu was still inside the room. his hood fell off and he had shoulder length blonde hair, his roots were brown though. his facial features were rather feminine, but in your opinion, he was handsome. you quickly shook your head to get rid of those thoughts before slowly walking towards the safe room again, sighing as a slight worry for arisu build up inside you.
you opened the door again and went inside, noticing that only in one room at the right corner of the apartment was lit. you went into it and saw that arisu was 'fighting' the tagger with the horse mask. you humpled up to them and grabbed the tagger arm, trying to help arisu in any way you could, groaning as the tagger elbowed your face and made you fall back again a wall. your vision slowly got blurry, probably due to blood loss and the kick in your face. you tried to get up but your body slowly turned numb, making you exhale slowly before everything went black.
flashback
"y/n! wait for me!!" you heard your best friend's voice from behind you as you continued to run through the big penthouse. you suddenly accidentally ran into one of your maids and immediately got up, apologizing but the maid apologized as well and you told her that it's fine. himari finally caught up to you and stood beside you, tugging at your sleeve. "y/nnn~" she said with a grin, pointing at the back glass door where he stood. you glared at himari, "why is he here?" you asked her and crossed your arms skeptically, arching an eyebrow. "because he wanted to see you soooo badly!" you explained and pulled you towards the door, making you roll you eyes. you always had photoshoots with him, but he made you hella uncomfortable, you didn't know why, yet. you slid the glass door open and stepped outside instead of inviting him in, because you didn't want him in your home. you just stared at him, waiting for him to say something, since he was the one who wanted to see you. "hey, hun." he said and winked at you. he was a famous model who had requested to collaborate with you a few months ago, which would get the both of you more fans and followers, but you never cared about how many followers you had.
you never wanted to be famous after all. but you somehow just became famous, you couldn't even remember how. you finally spoke up, "don't call me that. i have a name." you replied, a dry tone in your voice. he wrapped an arm around your waist and began walking around the huge garden with you, rubbing his thumb on the fabric of your crop top. "let's have a talk." he finally said and looked straight forward, smiling. "go on." "well, y/n, as you see.. you always seem to hate me a lot, but for no exact reason. I hope I do not make you uncomfortable or anything like that." he said in a calm tone, making you knit your eyebrows together. you never knew why he made you uncomfortable, he just did. "well, I'm not sure myself why you make me uncomfortabl–" "so I really do make you uncomfortable? my dearest y/n, I'm terribly sorry." he said, letting go of you and crouching down. he took your hand into his two own hands and kissed your knuckled, making you cringe. usually, you were never the type of 'lovesick girl's, unlike himari. but you wanted to love and he loved equally, not to he forced like this. "I want to let you know that I'm quitting my collaboration with you." you suddenly stated and pulled your hand away from him.
"huh?! so suddenly? but you didn't even–" you cut him off, "I did already sign the papers and gave them to your manager. she said that it's fine and that she already has found someone new you could collaborate with." you explained and began walking back. "but–" "get off my property now." you simply said and walked off, back through the glass door before sliding it closed. you sighed to yourself and after an hour, you were finally done explaining himari the whole story and situation.
flashback end.
