Okee. I have decided to do, after I finish this story, a completely different story about the zodiacs going to a school for heroes and villains. So, sry if you don't like it. Also a picture of Pisces UwU(yes she does have a tattoo).

Chapter 8

Pisces POV

To my surprise, I saw Scorpio holding a gun up to Virgo's head like they were playing Russian Roulette with a psychopath(Really dark game. Do NOT play.). I rushed up to stop Scorpio from pulling the trigger, but it seems I didn't have to, because he then just stood there, doing nothing.

"Tell. Me. Where. They. Are." Scorpio said through gritted teeth. I was getting closer. Only about 10 yards away.

"Never. Never in one million years would I tell you the location of my sibling." I estimated I had about 3 seconds to travel 7 yards.

"Goodbye!" Scorpio yelled, pulling the trigger. I was only about three yards away when Virgo dropped, dead.

Mystery guy then yelled, "Ooh, next death! Looks like Mr. Scorpio Scorpion killed Ms. Virgo Maiden in front of Pisces Fishes! Bet Pisces is beating herself up after that one!" He was right. I was beating myself up over it.

I ran inside the cabin before Scorpio could react. He hadn't noticed me. I grabbed one of my hatchets, ran back outside, and yeeted the hatchet at the Scorpion.

Lucky for him, Scorpio could run extremely fast, so he was able to make a getaway. I chased after him, picking up my hatchet on the way. Once I got a clear shot, I threw my hatchet again.

This time, I didn't miss him. My hatchet cut cleanly through his left thigh-knee area, leaving him with a dismembered lower left leg. He cried out in pain. He didn't die on spot.

Scorpio's cry was loud enough for Aquarius, who was about a quarter mile away, to hear. The water bearer easily found Scorpio, and teleported the pair away, leaving me with a severed Scorpio limb, a bloody hatchet, and a dead Virgo corpse right around the corner.

Aquarius POV

I was able to save him. What I mean by that is that Scorpio made it out, alive. But he wasn't the same.

I was able to replace the bottom of his leg with an artificial lower leg(with magic). It wasn't perfect, but it would have to do. He looked quite similar to Peeta Mellark from the Hunger Games, except for the fact that they have different color hair(A/N I've seen the Hunger Games movies, but in the book Peeta has blue eyes and he's crippled, just like Scorpio.).

After fixing his leg, I summoned a cane to help him walk. "Here you go, just be careful." I told him.

"You know that's not possible, Water-Bearer." Scorpio said, and I knew he was right. Scorpio was very... carefree is being too nice. He's careless. He won't take the right precautions, he most definitely won't listen to the rules, and he'll give as many heart attacks as possible.

"MEETING!" Taurus called.

As Scorpio and I walked towards the place we were meeting, Scorpio murmured, "Thanks for helping me..."

"No problemo!" I assured him.

When we arrived, Taurus immediately told us what he wanted to say. "We caused enough damage. We should stay on the low, have the other signs at it. Any questions?" No one did. "Great! Dismissed."

I thought the meeting was pretty useless, not to mention absurd. Not claiming the throne we oh so rightfully deserve was basically making us targets for the other teams. So, I decided to take the initiative that our team needed to take, and end things once and for all with the one person who might stand in our way. I made a quick call to the person I wanted to end things with, and we arranged a duel at 6:30 Central(the two of us were very good at keeping track of time) at the place Libra and Scorpio found. Libra could show my opponent where it is, and Scorpio for me

It's time Capricorn learned the meaning of the word 'dedication'.

Capricorn POV

Libra and I decided it would smartest to leave at six, so that we could get there and strategize. For a pair of enemies, we worked surprisingly well together.

When we got there, Libra told me exactly what to do. For this duel, she was the brain, and I was the brawn(I'm not saying I'm not intelligent. I'm actually one of the most intelligent signs).

When Scorpio and Aquarius finally arrived, Libra and Scorpio took 20 steps back and let us do the dueling.

It seemed that Scorpio and Aquarius had also strategized, because Aquarius knew exactly what he was going to do. He quickly murmured a spell and fired a purple beam at me. I jumped very high(I was a very good jumper when I was really little, and I'm okay now), and then Goat came out of the forest, went right into the spot I was before I jumped, causing me to land on his back.

Goat then charged at Aqua with me on his back, and at the very last second, I jumped off. Goat then bit into the Water Bearer's leg, and threw him into the pond about 4 feet away.

Aquarius was a very good swimmer, but with a weak leg, he couldn't manage to stay afloat. After about 20 seconds of doggy-paddling, he sunk underwater, never coming back up.

"Ah! Look at this! A third today! Looks like Aquarius Water-Bearer drowned after being thrown into a deep pond by Capricorn Mergoat's ravenous pet, Goat! At what perfect timing, too! It's now 6:45 at night, so no more killing is prohibited until 8: in the morning! Thank you!" The mystery guy made it seem like It was a good thing three have died.

Alive: Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Pisces

Dead: Aries, Virgo, Aquarius

A/N oof! Two signs died in this chapter! Anyways, I have written the first two chapters of my other story I'm publishing next. I'm actually considering publishing it before finishing this book, so let me know if you want that plz.
