11 - Part C:

"Now this is unexpected."

"Aw! This sucks!"

"Release us immediately!"

"This is embarrassing..."

While our enemies are complaining, we discuss on what to do next in the dinning cottage while we're munching on some roasted bananas.

I thought roasted bananas were weird at first but once I tasted it, I couldn't get enough of it.

By the way, some of the enemies are my acquaintances and those are Sophie, Favion, Crisselda and the girl with purple pony tail hair from Luna fanatic club.

If I remember correctly, her name starts with a "V".

I heard Aeris say her name a couple of times but I can't seem to remember it.

(Note: The name of the girl with purple pony tail hair from the Luna fan club is Viona Falfeti.)

"So what should we do with them?"

Lokki asked and shoves a roast banana in his mouth.

"I say we execute them!"

Maple declared evilly and shoves three roasted banana in her mouth and starts chomping like a hamster.

Gotta say, she got a big mouth for someone who looks like a little kid.

When I said that she has a big mouth, I mean literally and idiomatically.

"We should use them as bait."

Kana said and takes a nibble on her roasted banana.

We all react to what Kana had said.

"Bait?"

Kana swallows her food and explains to us.

"The others who are left behind to guard the base will be wondering why they haven't come back yet. When that happens, they will be curious and send scouts to check the situation or reinforcements."

"And your point is?"

I asked.

Kana fix her glasses in place and answer my question.

"That will give us the opportunity to steal their flags."

The four morons who's dumbfounded tells Kana that they don't understand.

"I don't get it!" (Linel)

"Me neither man!" (Roc)

"Me three! Me three!" (Maple)

"Dude! My head hurts!" (Zack)

Kana ignores them and turn her gaze towards me.

"It's your call."

"HEY!"

Lokki, Maple and Roc shouted.

As for Zack, he's busy rubbing his head while moaning.

"Uuh! Dude!"

The others stares at me like they're waiting for me to decide which puts me in a tight spot.

Sigh! Why do I have to be the one calling the shots?

I think for a bit regarding on Kana's plan.

Well like Kana said, they'll be sending more people to check the situation which means there will be less people guarding the base.

When that happens, it will be easier to steal their flags but in order to that, I need to send in the strongest and fastest ones on our team to pull it off.

There are other complications as well like other classes will also try to steal the flags and the defense of our base will be weakened since most of the sentry guns are destroyed and will be sending people out.

Not to mention, our main entrance is busted open thanks to a certain someone.

I decided to ask Kana about those matters.

"Well, that's a good idea but how do we know the other classes won't try to steal their flags which will make things complicated?

Kana answers me with her usual poker face.

"They won't."

"And how do you know that?"

I asked.

She answers me.

"I'll tell you if we succeed."

Well then, since my questions is somewhat answered, it's time to ask my second question.

"Alright... Then how about the defense of our base?"

"That's been taken care of."

She answered me without batting an eye.

Knowing Kana, she has something hidden up her sleeves.

Since I have no more rooms for complains, I decided to go along with her plan.

"Alright... Let's go with Kana's plan."

Everybody else agrees with me while the four morons are still dumbfounded.

...

Here is the list of pairs who's in charge of stealing which classes' flag.

Class 1- Aeris and Ace.

Class 3- Wren and Roc

Class 5- Maple and Lokki

Class 6- Zack and Mathias

As for me and Kana, we're in charge of guarding the base.

We were able to decide the paring using our favorite random selector app and some of us weren't satisfied with the results especially Wren who demanded that I should switch places with Roc.

Thanks to Ace's negotiation skills and Kana's persuasion skills, Wren reluctantly gives up on the idea.

What's with Wren anyway?

Does she want to keep me by her side so much that she can have her revenge?

Or is there something else?

Sigh! There's no use thinking much about it.

Anyway, I had to loan one more phone from Kana and give mine away, so we can communicate with one another.

That's enough recap for now, Time to concentrate on the job.

Right now, Kana and I are on the tower looking out for upcoming enemies.

The reason why were up here is well, we can see the entire area from up here and the tower is also reinforced with a triple layered level 5 barrier which I have no idea how Kana pull that off.

In other words, this tower is indestructible.

Well, this is where our flag is located, so it has to be indestructible.

Since it's daybreak, I don't have to turn the night vision on in this binoculars to spot enemies.

Not to mention my eye sight is 20-20.

While I'm busy doing my job, Kana is idly fidgeting with her phone.

I wonder, what does she always do with that phone of hers.

Maybe I could sneak a peek.

I move a little bit closer without her noticing and took a peek.

As I did, I saw what she's doing.

She's playing Tetris.

Don't tell this is what she's been doing everytime I see her fidgets with her phone!

She noticed that I'm staring at her phone screen and turn her head towards me.

"Do you wanna play?"

She asked while offering her phone.

I reject her offer.

"Not thanks."

And went back to my post.

Now that's anti-climatic.

No wait! Isn't Kana a secretive type?

I bet she knew that I was looking and switch from whatever she was doing to playing Tetris.

I make my second attempt.

As I look on her screen again, she wasn't playing Tetris anymore.

She's playing a Gacha Game.

She slowly turns her head towards me.

"Do you wanna play?"

She asked while offering her phone again.

I reject her offer again.

"No thanks."

And went back to my post afterwards.

Now that proves my deduction.

Before I was able to take a peek, I saw her fingers move faster which means she switched.

If she was really playing Tetris this whole time, I should have seen her playing Tetris instead of a Gacha Game.

This time I'll catch her!

I circle around to Kana's right side while pretending to look for enemies.

As I was near her, I quickly take a peek.

When I did, I saw her playing a cheap point and click Zombie Survival Game.

She slowly turns her head towards me.

"I know you want it."

She said while offering her phone.

I'm pretty sure she's making fun off me.

I didn't say anything and went back to my post.

I'm not giving up yet!

I quickly turn towards Kana and use the binoculars to take a peek.

As I did, I saw Kana typing on a writer app.

This is what she typed.

You're bored, aren't you?

She continues typing.

Don't worry, you won't be bored for long.

I can't help but to blur out.

"What does that even mean?"

She answers me by typing.

5

"Five?"

As I reacted.

She continues...

4

"Four?"

3

"Oh I get it! It's a count down. So what for?"

She didn't answer me and continue her countdown.

We have a visitor.

Boom*

I use my binoculars to see where did that explosion came from.

It's at the front gate.

I saw two guys in shock standing on the mine field while another guy who is lying down unconscious.

The students from that area are in shock as well.

I'm guessing they figured it out that not all the mounds are land mines and try to stand up but got unlucky.

I look towards the west side from the main entrance and saw two guys throwing stones at the mounds and did not explode.

After that, they say something to their comrades who are trapped, and one of them tries to stand up.

As he did...

Boom*

He exploded and fall unconscious which cause panic on their side.

I look at the other two sides and see if they tried the same thing.

They actually did and got the same results.

Boom* Boom*

Now that's weird.

Are they all unlucky or there's something else?

I decide to ask Kana on a particular matter.

"Hey Kana, you said that 20% of the land mines are real while the rest are just dirt right?"

She answers me with her usual poker face.

"I lied."

I can't help but to react exaggeratedly.

"You what??"

She repeats herself.

"I lied."

I'm annoyed and frustrated that Kana would lie about that so I ask her to state her reason.

"Why the hell did you lie about that?"

She answers me.

"In order to fool your enemies, you have to fool your friends."

"What kind of a sick twisted logic is that?"

I asked angrily.

She answers me.

"It's a saying from my home planet."

I ask her about that.

"A saying from your home planet?"

"Earth from the milky way galaxy."

Holy crap! She's from earth?? I ask her to make sure.

"You're from Earth as in the Earth from the milky way galaxy!"

"Yes."

And she answers me.

"Now that explain why your hair and eyes are black!"

I pointed out.

Kana didn't say anything and picks up the assault beam rifle with a scope that's lying on the ground and points it at the entrance.

I found that quite strange and ask her about that.

"Hey! What are you doing?"

She answers me without looking at me.

"I'll provide back up, you attack them."

"What?"

I reacted.

"They're coming."

She said and cocks her gun.

Chuchuck*

I almost forgot that the enemies are here.

I jump down from the tower which is only twelve feet tall and prepare to attack.

Eight people enters the base from four different direction.

The ones who were near the main entrance enters normally while the others jumps over the wall.

We're surrounded.

This will get ugly.
