《The scale of God》Unlikely companion

Guns point at both sides of the hall, one trembling the other stationery. Llida has a silenced pistol aiming directly at Annabelle's head. Her sweat plays a rhythm on the wooden floors as they rain from her face. The sounds of tiny footsteps hitting the floor pulsate in Kai’s mind. What if someone were to see a scene like this? There would be a lot of explaining to do, and I doubt anyone would listen to reason and just go straight to the police. Llida pokes the hat off of her head with the gun.
“I found this little shit snooping around. Still, looking for my Moms huh? Wrong mansion bitch”, Llida pulls down the hammer.
“I'm sorry I’m sorry”, a french accent bounces off the walls of the hall “I was given order’s you see. I get paid, I do a job, simple yeah?” Llida fires a warning shot right at her feet.
“You think that makes up for anything? You tried to kill my mother asshole!”
“When are you gonna tell us about what they want with your mom?”, Roman asks
“When are you gonna tell us why you hunt angels?”, Kai looks at Roman as his hand begins to steady.
Anabelle turns her head to Llida.
“I assure you, I have no grudge against your family. Our mission was a failure, we have nothing to do with your mother any longer”, Llidas' body gets hot as he points the gun at her face.
“That doesn’t make up for anything!”, He pulls the trigger.
Roman’s gun is completely dismantled in the arms of Annabelle, she drops the pieces to the ground.
“I’m an assassin for hire, I do what I am told. Unless I’m given a job to execute your mother again, I will have nothing to do with your family”

Kai hands Roman the gun and slowly walks towards Annabelle. The icy feeling is gone. She is not a threat to anyone here.
“Then explain what you’re doing here Miss. Annabelle”
“I invited her”, Rosa’s voice can be heard from behind Kai and Roman.
“Anny you must've gotten lost, are you ok?”, As she walks towards the group she notices the pieces of weaponry on the floor. Kai’s body feels as if he was dropped into the arctic ocean. Rosa’s glare at the group seems inhuman, her facial structure almost that of a demon.
“Who the hell pointed a gun at her?”
“No no Rosa. I told them I could dismantle anything and they asked me to show them. Sorry, I dirtied your carpet”, She clasps her hand and smiles tilting her head. Attempting to cushion the situation. Rosa’s glare persists as she stares down Kai. The air becomes thinner as Rosa’s signature smile plasters on her face.
“Well ok then! I’m starving let’s go and eat your present, yeah?” she says as she walks off with her arm in the air letting out a cute laugh ‘Ah hyah hyah hyah’
Roman creeps over to Llida and whispers “Hey, you brought presents?”
Llida fixes his tie as he gives a snarky look at Roman “Of Course I brought presents. Since you haven't that means I’ve won.”
“I got presents”, Kai standing with several wrapped boxes big and small. “I teleported to the mall. Turns out they had some pretty good deals.”
Llida scoffs as he follows after Rosa
“Someone like you wouldn’t even be able to afford a gift suitable for her”
He had many gifts suitable for her. Kai had split his gifts with Roman. Rosa enjoys the plethora of cakes and donuts that Kai got over the diamond necklace that Llida got. The boys still avoid Annabelle but Masha is a lot more friendly. They had a great time, the group got a little closer to each other over several games and movies, even Anabelle appeared to fit in. All of that would go down the drain as today is a Thursday. Another day at Cole’s High.

Violent Solutions
By the 27th century mankind has long since been wiped out by its own creations and warlike nature. What remains of the Earth is fought over by the creations of the last human civilizations, biological and technological alike. Deep in the jungles of South America, an infiltration android is recalled to its base to be decommissioned, its function no longer required by its commander. As its "life" ends, its final thought is speculation about what it will experience if it is never activated again. Its next thought is confusion. A voice speaks to it, offering it a new mission. Its purpose is to serve, and so it accepts, even though it has its reservations. The voice offers assurances, the mission will be a success. In an unknown year, in an unknown place, a man awakens naked on a beach. He has a strange appearance, matched by an even stranger mind. Having memories of a previous life, an unknown landmark, and a task, he sets out to complete his work. The unusual freedom and lack of structure given in his newest mission is an oddity, but no barrier to success. Should he encounter problems, he knows how to solve them. He is an expert in violence and—when approached correctly—all problems have violent solutions. Updates Monday/Wednesday/Friday at 8PM Eastern Standard Time. Currently only posted on Royal Road. Some tags have been omitted to avoid spoilers.

"Montana, come here." He nodded his head toward the door, leaving out of the room. Staying silent as Ms. Carol looked at me, I kissed the back of Josiah's hand before leaving out of the room. As I walked out, Messiah stood there looking at me in disgust while I closed the door. "What are you doing that shit for?" "Huh?" I said since I had nothing else to say, just trying to stall time to get my words together."Why are you stripping, Monty?"Sighing, I decided that I wasn't going to lie like I'd originally planned to do after listening to Chocolate's stupid advice. "Money." I spoke simply and he scoffed as I looked down."Why not just ask Josiah for money instead doing hoe shit?" "First of all, It's not doing hoe shit. I don't have sex with anyone. I just dance. And I don't want to ask him for any money. It's not his job to take care of me.""So stripping..." He trailed off with a laugh."..stripping was the last resort? Instead of putting your pride aside?" Saying nothing, I just looked at him with pleading eyes."Please don't tell him, Messiah." I could already tell by the look on his face that he was going to tell him."I ain't gon' tell him.." Thank God. I thought. "..you are." "What?!" I shrieked. "No. I'm not.""You are." He spoke in a demanding tone."Please. You know how he is." I expressed"And you know how he is too but you made that bed." "Messiah, he's going to kill me." I begged."I know." He shook his head, walking away from me."Better figure it out. You got until the end of the day to tell him or I will." He mumbled before walking back into the room.
