Waves: A Little Mistaken Fate

Chapter 30: The Preparations.

The next day, it was, at the moment, a peaceful morning as there were few students that are currently in school. Birds chirping could be heard, the smooth flow of the gentle breeze hitting on the green leaves also could be heard.

Eugene could be seen, seated on a chair and in front of his desk were two people, standing up with their faces having an angry look on them. They were both Jay and Tiara and at that moment of a little awkward silence, they angrily stared at Eugene before Jay broke the silence, “Now, answer us Mr. Eugene, what’s up with all the ghosting and the rumours of you hanging around with Velma and stuffs, are you in love with her?”

“Are you jealous?” Eugene responds with a facial expression that was full of mockery and all.

“Of course you sucker, how can you have them both all by yourself!” Jay replied with all seriousness in him as if he was in sorrow and was seeking for some sort of salvation to his desires.

“Come on Jay! You can’t be breaking character now! Priorities first before your desires!” said Tiara with an annoyed tone and facial expression in which Jay snapped back to reality and apologized to her before going back to character, “once again, Mr. Eugene, what is your reason of ghosting us and not joining the drama practice of kissing the class representative on the grand stage?........ Gosh! You’re just getting the rizz on you these days, it should have been me, not him!”

“Oh my God! Fine! Eugene, ignore him and just answer me! Why the fuck are you not giving us any of your attention or presence anymore?” Tiara asks in an angry mood but to Eugene, he found her all being so cute with her facial expression and pouting.

“Awwn, alright, I am sorry for not giving you guys much attention, okay? I promise to change my ways. It’s just that there have been a lot of things going on, things like; this school having a shootout, predictively on the day of the festival.”

“What!?” the duo exclaimed in harmony on what they have just heard. “Hahaha, w-why do you say so?” Jay asked with a tint of fright in his tone.

“It seems, no, to be more correct, I know, that the Long Don himself is paying a visit with the reason of being after our tails, precisely I and Velma.” Eugene said as he then lays back on the chair with a serious expression on his face. The news made the two weak on the knees, causing them both to grab onto something to sit.

“Come on guys, don’t be so down, that is the reason why I have been running helter-skelter with Velma on making accurate plans. I even missed school yesterday because of it and just don’t worry, things will probably be settled and we will come out with the upper hand.” Eugene explained as he assures them some hope in the hellish situation.

“Are you sure about that?” Tiara asked but surprisingly, she has readied her heart for the event but wanted more of the hope before the showdown.

“Yeah, I am really sure about it and we will sort things out, so that there will be less casualties than before, but as for the festival, the students shall truly have fun. If you want some more information about all this, why don’t you guys come over for some sleepover at my house?” Eugene asked.

“Really? Yay, that sounds more fun than the sudden Long Don’s news.” Tiara replied with a sudden change of mood.

“Alright, as long as I see Miss Grey again.” Jay agreed to the suggestion with a creepy smile.

“Hahaha, I don’t really need to worry about you though, miss Angel can easily take care of such situation and let’s not talk about the guests we have at home.” Eugene went further in giving his reasons.

“Huh? Guests? Which guests, if I may ask?” Tiara took note of Eugene’s last words and asked as her interest heightened.

“It will be too boring if I am to open it all up now, why don’t you try to find out by yourselves? Am actually expecting your visitation, more like greatly expecting.” Eugene replied with a snicker on his face.

Tiara sighs at Eugene’s reply and looked back at him with a tired expression before speaking up, “alright, fine. I guess I’ll trust you a little today.”

.........................

It was finally break period and at that moment, the five that were acquired from the Hidden City came to the school. Even though they were tough veterans in the field of assassinations, they still had social conduct written inside of them. They were silent but harmonious too, as they observed the school’s environment.

Looking outside the window, Eugene could spot them five and he suddenly rushed downstairs to meet them. He walked up to them and made a head gesture which indicated that he was asking what was up. B. Bones was the first to speak up and with a tired tone, he answered, “we were ordered by the scary madam to have a look at the school and it’s structure just to know more about our battlefield.”

“Fine, I guess I will show you around. Do follow me.” Eugene ordered and decided to be their guide to tour the whole school.

The five followed behind Eugene as they took a walk round the school premises, buildings and facilities. Even though this would be an error or an act against the school’s law but well, as for Vincestreet High, it’s quite different as the students can do whatever they like to. They were almost done with the tour as it remains the school’s main building’s rooftop.

Although they attracted much attention, they all shrugged off the eyes but were keeping notes of what was around them as well as seriously studying the school’s structure. As they reached to the rooftop, they six were able to find Velma and Jixie as usual, having their quiet lunch on the rooftop. Velma as always, munching on her lunch while Jixie who looked more like a savage than Velma, eating like one who was endowed with table manners and etiquette.

Velma looked up with some food particles around her mouth to know who was around and at what she saw, she was surprised but asked, “wow, is it time for me to be apprehended for my sins and why is it you, Mr. Eugene and a group of new faces that are handling it? That’s really unexpected.”

“Don’t worry much, your time hasn’t yet come. Anyways, you know we planned to look for some personnel? Well, let me introduce you to the “five”. Again, I have something that might sound like a good news, maybe? The Long Don is our next opponent.”

“Huh? That crazy occultic bastard that prefers the blazing of guns than peace?” Jixie asked with a hint of surprise but obviously that she really wasn’t that bothered.

“Yeah, that’s the guy. Pretty a lucky coincidence to have an informant who works for him as well, while I was looking for someone to look up the profiles that were on the red files. Due to our strong relationship, I was able to receive some special services from him and I was told about him investigating on both of our information. So as I am talking now, the Long Don is with his congregation, planning on how to take us down but again, how lucky are we to have his information concluded today. So, I’m inviting you guys in a sleepover at my house, since we are going to have an effective full scale plan on these cult bastards, as we have deduced that the shootout might take place on the day of the festival.” Eugene explains.

“Or you just find this a perfect time to prey on me, oh Mr. Eugene, you..... bad boy.” Velma teased as usual.

“Uhm..... I can do that for you.” Said B. Bones as he peeks out behind Eugene.

“Oh, yeah. Let him do that, I heard he is capable. By the way, allow me to introduce my new friends. Here is AE7, our eyes or sniper, B. Bones, our stealth assassin, G55, our rouge assassin, 113, our tactical player and 3Es, our frontier and then guys, meet miss Velma, the one that plays with herself with a steel baseball bat and Jixie, yeah, just Jixie.”

“Hey, give me some face here. Just Jixie? Is that all you know about me?” Jixie was pissed off as he got to her introduction.

“Sorry but that’s all I have. Anyways guys, this is the rooftop, AE7, you could use this space as your domain. That’s all, I guess.” Eugene concluded as he joined the duo on their feast while the five left.
