Reader's POV

{ They're here already. But it's just Nigel...
Nigel is in the position Oliver was supposed to be in. 
And no one else is in their positions.
That means Oliver and the others can't come...
And Sandy's group... I heard the whistle, but that doesn't mean their okay. }

{ I need to assume that this is...
The worth case scenario. 
It may be the worst situation, but I still have to fight.
I still have to win.. How?
Come up with strategies, Y/n. }

I continued to think.
At least I had Emma with me...

"What is it, you two?"

"Isn't there a way without killing?"
Emma asked. 

"Hm?"
"Maybe we don't have to fight."
"What are you saying?"

I turned to Emma and nodded.

"I condone your hunting for sport. But we also hunt. 
I don't know what's right. But I don't want anyone else to get hurt. That's why I wanted to end this hunting ground. But... it's not like I want to kill you,"
Emma said.

"How regrettable. My gift from yesterday wasn't enough for you?"
he asked.

"I do hate you. I can't forgive you. But that's a different issue. 
Now that Bayon, the owner of this hunting ground, Is dead... there's no point in shedding any more blood. 
If we can end this without fighting... I won't have to put my friends in further danger. And you won't have to die either,"
Emma continued.

"Heh. You had me worried. But you haven't lost the will to fight. Good,"
he said.

I looked around.
I knew Nigel was here... but where?
Then, I knew where and I smiled.

I quickly turned back to Leuvis.

"I can't make the wrong decision. This is the only chance I have. That's why I have to ask,
Can you be satisfied in another way, without fighting?"
Emma asked.

"No! It's a foolish question. 
Why do you think I waited? I want to hunt and kill you. 
And I would die happy if I was hunted and killed by you and your friends,"
He responded.

"You have beautiful ideals. But the world isn't made of just ideals.
One's sense of values, or what's beautiful or ugly varies. Among us too."

"Don't think that we can come to an understanding with each other."
Emma said.

"Our only option is to be in conflict,"
he responded.

I picked up my gun. 
"Yes. There you go.
It's been nearly ten minutes. Three more seconds,"
he said, looking at his watch. 

I took a deep breath.

"Two."

"One.
Shall we begin?"

Then I pressed it, Emma and I both ran off as all the guns aimed at Leuvis. 
They all shot at him.

"I got hit a bit, eh?"
Leuvis said.

I grit my teeth.
He didn't even dodge...

"So your plan is to hide first? But what's your next move?"

{ It's only, Emma, Nigel, and I. The plan has changed.
And Nigel was holding that gun. What are we going to do? It's obvious.
We're going to break Leuvis's mask as planned. }
