Spider Gwen & The Recluse Assassin

V1:『Chips n Creeds』

Over an hour of gaming later, Gwen was winning offensively and Jack was winning defensively. They had already played in several arenas, killed plenty of AI, and even each other's vehicles. In terms of kills, Gwen had more, but in terms of Kills to Death ratio, Jack had a higher score.

"Oh come on! How come you don't die as often!?" Gwen laughed as she was chasing him through an apocalyptic map. "Come on! Get back here!"

Jack just gave her a quick glance over, a faint smile subtly taking his lips, before he turned his eyes back to the screen. He had never sat so long in one place for so long except for in class.

Reaching into his satchel whilst playing with one hand, he pulled out his blackberry phone and looked over at the missed calls and text messages that came after three o'clock. "Hm..."

Gwen raised a brow as he hit a wall in-game, though instead of taking advantage of it, she glanced over to see what he was doing. "Why are you on your phone?"

Jack's eyes flickered on over to her, "No reason in particular," stuffing the phone into his bag, he would nestle himself into the couch.

"Uh-huh, sure." She smirked slightly as she pressed the triangle printed button on her controller, firing a volley of missiles. Half of them made contact with his vehicle, sending him off the edge of a cliff, the other missiles exploding on the grounds near the edge. "Pfff! How lucky can you be!?"

Jack simply looked over at her again as he went back to playing with her. Driving towards a tunnel, just as a magnetic was about to pass overhead.

Gwen pressed the 'gas' hard, chasing after him and just before she caught up with him... Her car was plucked off the ground and captured by the giant magnet. "What!?" She rested her controller hand on the arm of her chair and turned her head to glare at him. "You did that on purpose!"

Jack shrugged as he looked over at her, "Tactics."

Pouting at him with her lips, she would pause the game. "Want something to eat?"

Jack's blinked at her when she had asked about food. "...Sure?" Putting his controller down, he stood up as she pushed herself off the couch.

His eyes watched as she padded her way over to the door to open and move it aside with her index and middle fingers. She glanced back at him, raising a brow. "Come on," she gestured for him to get a move on, to move faster.

Jack did as he was told for the most part, pocketing his hands and following her out into the hall, down the steps and into the kitchen. He then walked over to the window of the kitchen which overlooked the street. The cruiser was gone. "...Huh, your father left already."

Glancing over at him as she opened the pantry, she shrugged. "He said he'll be back tomorrow."

Jack slowly nodded to this and waddled on over to her side, peering over her shoulder as she walked into the elongated walk-in closet. "How much stuff do you have in here...?"

"Quite a lot, do you prefer chips or puffs?" A crinkling sound caught his attention as he looked to her hands. There was a bag of blue corn chips in one hand and a bag of Japanese Teriyaki Chicken puffs in the other, which she likely bought at the convenience store near the school or the Super Walmart.

"Puffs," Jack's eyes were on the funny animalistic cartoon character riding a scooter, whilst wearing goggles and eating chicken strips off a stick, on the front of the family sized foil baggy.

"Corn chips are healthier," She shook the blue chips bag lightly, "They're made with real corn."

Jack's eyes rested on her with a curious gaze, wondering if she was really giving him a choice.
