Sayaki P.O.V

       It was finally here...

      The much dreaded exams.

       When I was in the B-class,I had kept my facade of faking to be one of the less smart students but actually,I had already learnt all of these basic stuff a few months after being an assassin.

        I shivered at the thought of it.

*flashback starts*

       The old assassin growled.

       I had gotten another question wrong...
 
        "No!You useless girl!"

         The whip landed hard onto my flesh.

        It burnt.My whole body was in pain.

       Gritting my teeth,I tried not to let a sob take over.They would punish me more if I did that...And if I delayed my answer any longer...

       "I...I'm sorry!!T....the...answer...is...15??"

  *flashbacks ends*

       The torture I had to go through...

        But I guess their way of educating 13 year olds was actually successful.

        Till this day,I remember everything from my 'lessons'.

         Groaning,I flipped open my papers and looked around me.

       The E class was suffering,which meant I had to suffer too....

       Not that I minded.

      I chose the pen I hated the most as my 'weapon' and stepped into the 'battlefield'.

      This would be fun.

      
     *time skip to after exams*

      I scored a flippin:

English: 73/100
Math:89/100
Japanese:84/100
Science:72/100
================
Total:318/400
Social Studies: 36/100
Home Ec:99/100
Rank:48/168

    Yea...I scored a 99 for Home Ec cause it doesn't really affect my cover...

    But when i noticed my classmates' dissappointed glances and the rankings on their result slips,I realised that I might have...umm....blown my cover a little too much...

     "I might have underestimated this school's education system...I can't even bring myself to face you all..."

      A anti sensei knife zoomed towards that over dramatic octopus.

      I saw a certain red head stand up.

      "Karma-kun!Sensei is feeling very depressed right now-"

       He paused half way when Karma threw all his test papers at him...

English:98/100
Math:100/100
Japanese:99/100
Science:99/100
===============
Total:396/400
Ranking:4/168

    Holy crap.That guy was smart.

    I smiled and stood up holding my test papers.

     "Ooi octopus!I may not have gotten top 10,but I fufilled my target!"

      Of course..I could easily be top 10...a higher rank than Karma even...

      "Uwahh!!!Sayaki-chan and Karma-kun....Awesome!"

       The class started flocking towards our test papers.

       "Wait a minute...Sayaki-chan....Why would you be in E class if your scores were this high?You should have been able to stay in B class...or even go to the A class!"

       Crap.They caught on...Comeon...think of something...

 
       "Ouu...uhh...I...My....umm...my test scores were only able to reach this high because of all the time octopus put in teaching me...and...alot of self studying!"

        The class bought it and continued gawking over me and Karma's results.

       Phew...that was close...

      Pfft...Weak...They must be secretly judging at how weak and pathetic you are...

       Groaning inwardly,I paused and put on my headphones,drowning myself in music.

       Lately,I've been listening to music more as it helped drown the voice.

       "....Saya....Sayaki!"

        "Ehh?"

         Nagisa was staring at me...

         "Sayaki-chan...I was calling you for the past five minutes...Please try to lower your headphone's music,okay?....Anyways...I wanted to ask whether you would like to be in our group for the field trip...So far,Karma-kun,Okuda-san,Sugino-kun,Kayano-chan and I are in the group."

        I heistantly agreed,ignoring the bad feeling in my gut...

        "B...but...I wanted to ask...Kanzaki-san..."

         I could feel heartbreak in Sugino's voice.

         Ignoring the sadness that was in my chest,I light-heartedly smiled and told Sugino...

        "Sugino-kun...I'd gladly give up my place!You and Kanzaki-san will have much more fun together!"

        "Uwaahh?Thanks Sayaki!Your the best!"

        The group started making pans for the assassination...noone caught the ever lasting loneliness within me.

        That was when I realised...I didn't have a group...

        Keeping all pain in my heart,I sat down and drowned myself in music again.My mind repeating the same phrases over and over again...

        Don't let them in...

       Keep your mask on...

       Emotions are unnecessary...

       * time skip *

       The day that we were going to Kyoto finally arrived.

       For others,it would be a fun day.

       For me,it would be the much dreaded day.

       This place...Red....I see it everywhere.

       The first time I killed...The first time my hands were stained...

        It was here...In Kyoto.

   
A/N
