Mistakes for the Better

Chapter 2

George spent the rest of the walk thinking about ways to go about the assassination. He settled on using a bow and arrow since Sapnap, based on the file, was exceptional at hand to hand combat.

Soon George made it back to his house. He placed the file onto a table before going back outside. He had decided since Sapnap's street was connected to a semi-busy road, he would pretend he was going on a walk but, in reality, he would study Sapnap's house.

He reached the address the folder gave him. He looked up at the house. It was a decent sized house that could probably hold 2-3 people. The outside walls were horizontal wood planks, painted to be a darker grey. The second story overlapped the first in a section creating a carport. A concrete path led from the front doorsteps to the mailbox and connected to the driveway at the sidewalk. A few tall windows in the front showed certain rooms including the dining room and the living room. The rest of the windows on the sides and the back were covered by white curtains. The small porch in the front didn't have any decorations besides a brown doormat that had a cute little panda on it with a few plants in the background of it. Wooden fences about 6-8 feet tall closed off the backyard, however an exceptionally tall tree could be seen in the backyard.

"That's it!" George thought. "I'll use the trees around the house to get to the tree in the backyard. From there I should get a clean shot. That is if he opens the window."

After George got an idea for the plan he walked away from the house and back to his own. He decided he would go back at night to figure out a way to get Sapnap to open his window in the morning.

George decided to take a nap before heading back to Sapnap's house.

With the last clash of his sword to the dummy, Sapnap put away his sword and headed to the kitchen as it was getting closer to dark and his hands were getting sore from all the training he had been doing. He grabbed something to eat and walked over to his couch. He sat down and let out a small sigh as he got more comfortable. He had an uneasy feeling about something bad possibly happening but, he shrugged it off.

After finishing his food, he grabbed his phone from his pocket, checking the time. "It's already night?" He asked himself. He stood up and stretched. He headed over to the kitchen, putting his dishes in the sink before closing the curtains that he had forgotten to close earlier.

His sandy colored cat, Mogwai came out from behind one of the tables, stopping Sapnap from going to grab his keys. Mogwai meowed at him, passive-aggressively reminding Sapnap to feed him.

Sapnap acknowledged this and headed over to the kitchen again. He put the cat food into his cat's food bowl. Mogwai happily ate the food. Sapnap leaned down and pet him before grabbing his house keys and walking out the house, locking it behind him.

He walked down the sidewalk and to the park. Once he reached the park he sat down on one of the benches and decided to watch the night sky for a moment before he headed back.

After a few moments Sapnap walked back to his house, unlocking the door, walking in, and closing it, locking it again behind him. He was now feeling more tired so he drowsily walked over to his room before lazily flopping on the bed. He got situated under his covers and fell asleep soon after.

------

Once George was sure Sapnap would be asleep, he went over to his house. He had decided that he would head to the breaker and cut the wire to the air conditioning. The house would be hot in the morning and he would have to open his window.

George snuck over to the Circuit breaker located on the side of the house. He picked the lock on it and cut the wire he thought was to the air conditioning. Only after cutting it, did he realize he cut the wire that controlled how hot it was. He panicked for a second but then thought about it. It would most likely do the same thing he was planning to do; the room would be cold, not hot.

George headed off back to his house to wait out until Sapnap was to wake up, based off the folder.

Sapnap woke up to the sound of his alarm annoyingly beeping at him to get up. He slammed his hand on the snooze button before groaning and rolling out of his bed. His hair was a mess and he looked tired and grumpy.

When he got out of bed, a gust of cold air hit him causing him to shiver. He decided to look at it later and opened the window to let some warm air in.

He then walked over to the closet, grabbing some clothes before heading to the bathroom to freshen up.

He placed the clothes on the sink and turned on the water to the shower. After he took the shower, he put on the clothes. He then dried his hair and put his bandanna on his forehead to move his hair out of his face. He brushed his teeth and styled his hair till he was satisfied and went back into his bedroom.

Now that he was actually awake he went over to the breaker to try and fix the problem. He opened it only to find the wire was cut.

"Dammit, how did this shit happen?" Sapnap said, angrily. "Whatever, I'll deal with it later" He sighed annoyed.

Sapnap headed back inside and back to his room to grab his phone. 

And that concludes chapter 2. Also, if you guys have any ideas for titles I'm open to them. I need a title for this story.
