    Today was the day of the attempted assassination. Last night, Yor & Shopkeeper was able to have a nice little chat and went over a few points about the situation. Yor was also able to get back home with Loid safely, Anya sound asleep, also safe. Yor sighed as she fixed her dress and looked at herself in the mirror. Hmm..I hope nobody recognizes me, especially Loid-San and Anya-San! I also heard Millie likes her music, she might be here with Sharon and Camilla too! She turned around and checked for her mask that Shopkeeper had gave her. What did it look like again? Maybe a white mask with some type of rose design? Shopkeeper said it'd look nice on me..here it is! Yor smiled as she took it out of the box and placed it on. Will it help keep my cover and people might not suspect me? It'll have to do! She sighed as somebody knocked on the door. "You can come in!" Matthew walked inside and Yor smiled. "Director-San! It's nice to see you again!" It actually had been a while since the whole cruise incident with Olka. (Cruise Arc) "Good evening, Thorn Princess. Are you ready?" He asked as he put his hands behind his back, and Yor nodded. "Yes! I'm ready to protect-uhm..what's her name again?" "Her name is Aiyako, she's the main star of the group. The group is called Star X Girls." "Ohh!" Yor finally remembered her name and smiled as she took out her daggers. "Remember, those might not be needed. Don't try to kill him, just keep Aiyako and the others member safe." Yor nodded and smiled. I think I'm ready!

    "Director-San, when does the stalker come by?" Yor asked as she looked at her lap. "The show starts at 5:30, and ends at 7:00. It's expected that midway, he'd make his arrival, sometime around 6:40. We'll be waiting behind stage so when he makes his entrance, we'll be able to stop him. If he proceeds to get any more hostile and start trying to get physical with us, we'll restrain him and kill him when nobody is around. It's cruel to have people watch murder, even when it's deserved. Most of the fans are probably under the age of 18 as well." Yor nodded as she smiled and looked at the clock, it was almost 5:00. "Everything should go according to plan, there's no suspected backup, or anybody else that'll come with him. But it's time to meet up with the other bodyguards, don't try to interact with any of the members." They got up and started to ascend down the hall, walking closer to the practice room. "Do the members not know?" Yor asked and Matthew shook his head. "The people say that they don't want them to worry, so it was best if they didn't know. They don't want any unnecessary stress to them and the public, like if they were counting down their 'final' minutes." Yor nodded as they walked inside and a few faces looked at them. "Are we ready?" Matthew asked and they all nodded. "Yes, sir!" "Remember, this is a dangerous man. He's been committing multiple cases that are much more serious than this, and yet his identity remains unknown. All of the cases still connect back to him. But we're ready, then let's-"

The telephone rang.

Who's calling? Yor looked over as she wondered. Matthew walked over and picked it up.

"Hello?"
"Director-San! How much bodyguards are there?"
"6 is here with me right now, where's the 7th one?"
"Oh shit! He backed out last moment and I just saw the stalker with a group of 8 with him! They all were wearing these black jackets with the hood on, and they were holding flammable oil with matches and guns!"
"An arsonist group.."
"They were right behind the building and they left to some place down the street!"
".."
"Holy hell! What do we do?"
"Our last resort is to depend on who we have, we can't hire anymore now, not knowing their strength without undergoing any training."
"Should I warn the others?"
"Do not. It'll be fine. We'll figure something out, they'll be arriving at 6:40. We'll devise something by then."
"Alright, we'll be extra precautious and keep a lookout!"
"Good."

Matthew hung up as he turned around and looked at the bodyguards. "There's been a change of plans. The stalker is coming back with a group including himself, of nine people. We'll have to think of something else." He sighed as there were a few gasps.
