"Rock, Paper, Scissors!"
"Dammit!"
"Hehe, you're so bad at this Soro"
Both Akame and Soro clenched their hands once again. Akame looked at Soro with a smirk on her face.
"Heh, give up already, you've already lost eighteen times in a row"
"Like hell I will, I'm not giving up until I beat you Akame"
"Hmm...ok then have it your way"
Soro opened his eyes widely and looked down at Akame's left hand which was currently clenched, he was observing it's movements very sharply.
"Rock, Paper, Scissors!"
Yugo placed his book down and leaned over to see the results.
"A draw !?! that's the first one yet, you must be cheating Soro!"
Soro raised one of his eyebrows and looked at Yugo with a forced smile on his face, although you could tell he was annoyed.
"Dude...shut up"
Akame chuckled, she then looked at Soro with a smug look on her face.
"I'm so glad you finally learned how to play rock play scissors"
Soro's forced smile broke as he gritted his teeth towards Akame.
"SHUT UP! JEEZ..."
"PFF...HAHAHAHAHA"
Akame bursted out in laughter as she lowered her left hand.
"Ahhh...you're so funny Soro"
Soro crossed his arms and looked down with an annoyed expression like a child who was told he couldn't have what he wanted. Akame wiped the tears from her eyes from all the laughter.
"Alright, how about one more round and then we can play something else ?"
"Fine..."
"Rock, Paper, Scissors!"
Both Akame and Yugo's eyes widened and Soro's right after. They all had a surprised look on their face. Soro was the most surprised among the three off them, he could not believe what had happened.
"I WON!!! HECK YEAH!!!"
Akame didn't say anything, she simply grinned. Soro stood up from his seat and raised both his arms in the air.

"WOOOOOOOOOOO!"
All the other students in the bus immediately turned their gazes towards him. Soro lowered his hands shortly after and noticed all the faces staring at him, he was so embarrassed he didn't know how to react, he scratched the back of his head as he smiled at them.
"Haha....so what's up guys ?"
None of them responded, they just simply looked away as if nothing had happened and continued with what they were doing before. Akame bursted into laughter once again.
"BAHAHAHAHAHA, YOUR TOO GREAT SORO!!"
She kicked her legs around like a child as she continued to laugh, Soro simply sat back down with a gloom look on his face and stared out the window trying to erase his memory of what just happened. He noticed the sky was clear, all the clouds that he had seen 40 minutes ago before the journey had completely vanished.
[Hmm...that's strange, there all gone, has anyone else noticed it besides me ? should I ask Akame ?]
"Hey, Akame..."
"Hmm ? looking for another rematch ?"
"No not that. Have you noticed anything strange happen to the sky lately ?"
"Well now that you mention it, my dad told me he saw something fall out from the sky last night when we were having dinner"
"That's weird, did he tell you what it looked like ?"
"He said it was blue and glowing like some sort of star, something along those lines I think, Why do you ask ?"
"Just curious is all"
"Really ? It's not like you to care about this sort of thing, are you alright ?"
"Yeah i'm fine don't worry, anyways, what are we playing next ?"
The bus suddenly came to a stop. The blonde teacher got off her seat and walked over to the bus coach.

"Why did we stop ?"
The coach turned off the engine of the bus and then looked at her
"I can't drive any further ahead"
"What do you mean ?"
The coach pointed forwards. The road ahead had a large hole on it, almost as if a giant meteor had crashed down on it not too long ago. The teacher squinted her eyes at it.
"What on earth is that ?"
The students started mumbling among each other concerned as to why the bus stopped. The teacher turned around to face them and then cleared her throat.
"Ehem..."
They all looked up at her and became silent.
"It looks like we ran into a problem getting to the Kyanpu forest, but no worries, there's a place not too far back called the Henka forest where we can camp instead."
The students started mumbling again with confused looks on their faces. Akame stood up and spoke to the teacher directly.
"But Miss, why can't we go to the Kyanpu forest ?"
"Well you see....the roads blocked ?"
"Huh ?"
Akame slightly twisted her head in confusion. The teacher had no idea what else to say to her, she cleared her throat once again.
"Alright class, start leaving the bus and form a line on the pavement, do not attempt to walk further down the road"
The students obediently followed her command, however the mumbling started again once they left the bus and saw the hole on the road in front of the bus. Soro, Yugo and Akame stood together in the line. Yugo sighed as he gently pushed his glasses closer to his eyes.
"I don't understand why we are going to Henka forest, if the roadway to Kyanpu forest is blocked then we may is well return back to school and come back once the it's back to normal.
Soro had been staring at the hole on the roadway for a while, he was curious as to why there were no signs put up around it, could it have been that the road was only recently damaged and they were the first to notice it. Akame crossed her arms with a weary look on her face.
"Jeez this whole trip is ruined"
The teacher finally came out of the bus after discussing a phew things with the coach. She stood in front of all the students who where in line.
"Alright, everyone follow me I know a shortcut to the Henka forest"
The teacher got off the pavement and went onto a rocky pathway surrounded by trees. The students followed along, apart from Soro who was still looking at the hole.
["What could have possibly fallen from the sky to make such a big hole ?"]
Soro spotted a small blue flash coming from the hole, he started to walk closer towards it in curiosity, however he stopped when he heard Akame call for him soon after.
"Hey Soro! hurry up or your gonna get lost"
"Coming"
Soro turned away from the hole and ran onto the rocky pathway to catch up to the rest of his class

8 117On Tilt [in progress]
Going on tilt is like falling in love: both make you foolish and should be avoided at all costs. *BROOKEI hate Dean Hollis.I tell myself that every day. And some days, I almost believe it. Some days, I sell myself on at least a solid dislike of who he is and what he stands for.Like his stupid charming smile. His stupid sculpted forearms. And his stupid addictive cologne that leaves me light in the head and weak in the knees. He's a vintage blend of infuriating and intoxicating, all in one deceptively handsome bottle.Let's not forget his notoriety for emotional hit-and-runs. Dean is a bad decision just waiting to happen. I would know.Been there, done that... Literally.*DEANI remember the first time I saw Brooke Maccabe. My first thought was, holy shit. That's the hottest girl I've ever seen. I was trying to think of a good pickup line when she walked up to our door and gave Brendan a hug.My next thought was, fuck my life. Because that dime? She was my best friend's baby sister. And she was sixteen.Verboten. Off-limits. The Demilitarized Zone. She may as well have had a blinking red neon sign over her head that read, 'Look but don't touch: Violation punishable by death'.Problem is, I really wanted to touch.And the even bigger problem is, nine years later, I did.*18+ for explicit adult content
