"Uwaah.. Kanzaki-chan, you're pretty good..!"

Kanzaki smiled at the compliment and refused to let her eyes drift from the screen as she played on, once again beating a record. She didn't see the way (Y/N) fidgeted from beside her, tapping her feet against the floor repetitively as she bit her lips restlessly, "Ka- Kanzaki-chan, you're beating the score again!"

Nodding, the black-haired student felt the adrenaline rush through her veins when her finger muscles tightened as she hadn't stopped for a long while now. (Y/N) watched in amazement, her own battleship having been destroyed about ten minutes ago to observe the way Yukiko moved her hands like she had been coming here for her whole life.

"I'm having a lot of fun (Y/N)-sa- Oh, did you lose..?"

She paused and took a second to glance at your screen with the two words, 'YOU LOSE' you coughed awkwardly and reached a hand in your pocket to pull out another token, only it was completely empty due to your excessive use of the claw machine earlier where there had been a little plush doll of Luffy D. Monkey, "You can have one of my tokens if you want (Y/N)-san." Despite being a little upset over losing, you were stubborn to show otherwise and looked up pridefully, "No thanks, this game sucks."

Beginning to stand up, you heard the familiar sounds on the game beside you and felt your eyes widening at the sight of Kanzaki's screen reflecting the same words that yours had, 'YOU LOSE.' She had turned, removing her hands to place them in her lap as her black hair swayed on her black as she smiled up at you, "Would you like to play together then? I want to keep playing with you, (Y/N)-san."

Your cheeks grew warm at the sight when you fell back into the seat, "We-well if you insist! I'm going to beat you this time! I can feel it!"

Red Eye walked along side of the road at night, he had long departed from you and he finally managed get away from Koro when the octopus spoke to him about his students and how much he adored them. Red Eye already knew he wasn't cut out for this job specifically and he had seen that when he watched you shoot Koro with his sniper. He couldn't do that and he was astonished when your bullet made contact.

He didn't realise it at first but he knew that he hadn't really been living his life to it's fullest potential, he was just wondering around aimlessly and listening to orders given by his superiors or people that remained hidden when they gave him orders for another assignment.

He wanted to do something else, see more as well and made his mind back when he had departed from you in that dark alleyway when you disappeared to wherever the wind had taken you. He had his phone held in his hand, held against his ear when he heard the voice of the man who had assigned him in Kyoto, "This is Karasuma."

"Hey Karasuma, I'm gonna have to back out of this one."

"Already? I never thought you'd back out like that, is there a reason why if I may ask?" This deep voice held a tone of curiosity and images of yourself sprung to Red Eye's mind, "Nah it's alright, It's just that I haven't really been around, you know? I want to see more than just red so I'm gonna travel and see new places. Besides I think that other girl was doing a way better job than me."

"That sound nice then, I hope you well- wait did you say other girl? There was someone else with you?"

"Hm?" Red Eye looked around, raising a brow at no one in particular and licked his lips, "Yeah, there was another girl and she wouldn't tell me that much but I figured she was hired as well because of how well her technique was - she even managed to hit the target, only a skim though. She looked really young as well."
