The Assassin

Chapter 9

"Miss Artuso wake up!" the teacher yelled. I lifted my head up an let out a yawn, stretched, then looked up around the class.

"What?"

"Will you be joining us?" He asked, anger obviously in his voice, I shrugged my shoulders in response.

"Alright time for the test class," he sighed, I heard a few people snicker while others groaned. The test was being handed out while I got out a pencil, eraser, and pen out from my bag with some difficulty with the cast on my hand.

I waited for him to give us the queue to start the test. "... you may start your test."

I'm too tired for this... I'm not going to hold myself back so I can just go back to sleep.

I turned the paper over and quickly got to work. I worked through the test very quickly, then put my pencil down and went over to the front and handed in my test to the teacher.

"You can't be done already, it's only been a few minutes," He huffed I put the paper down not wanting to argue and went back to my desk.

I am not in the mood for this. I groaned and put my head down on the desk.

At the end of class, Roy woke me up and told me the teacher wanted to talk to me and I had to stay back for a few minutes. When everyone was gone, he came over to me.

"How is this possible? You don't really pay attention in class how did you get 100% on a test you were not prepared for!" He exclaimed.

I can't say anything 'bout this... I'll just have fun with this. I snickered. "I've got to go so if that's all can I go... test me whenever you want nothings going to change," I signed, I left the classroom while he tried to find out what just happened.

After sometime Roy and I went to our regular place for lunch. I sat down on the ground and loosen my casts. While Roy got my lunch out of my bag.

"So were Ari? I haven't seen him today. Did the Imitator get 'em?" Roy asked as he opened my lunch and begun eating.

"No, but it was damn close, one of his friends died though," I yawned trying to cover my mouth with my hand.

"When did it happen?" He asked, obviously shocked not expecting that answer.

"Last night so I wasn't the only out. He was coming home with his friends when they got attacked by the Imitator. If you know who wasn't there to hear them, they defiantly be dead right now," I muttered as I grabbed something from my lunch.

"You mean the Assassin right, Roxie?"

"Yeah, who else?"

"Why are you so tired?"

"I was got home really late last night about when I started to fall asleep, I had to go to school."

I ate some of my lunch but ended up yawning and almost drifted off in the middle of the break. "Roxie..." Roy sighed as I let out another yawn. He pulled me down beside him and placed my head on his lap, letting me use his legs as a pillow. Eventually fell sleep on his lap. He woke me up at the end of lunch since he had a class to go to.

He's a good-bye to each other then he left me all alone then after some time I made sure my casts were on right then went to the gym. I sat on the stage, my crutches leaning down beside me as I read a book. It was a medical book not like they would notice that I'm reading anyways. 'Knowing the stuff is a good idea you never know when you'll need to know this to help someone or yourself, I muttered.

I already know some of it, but there are still things that I need to learn and it is always good to touch up on things as well. I couldn't wait for the class to be done. I get to leave early since I don't need to get changed, so I was pretty much at the doors when the bell rang. Dave quickly caught up to me, though.
