Chapter 8

The class was about to start but Alvin and Emily were nowhere to be seen! That was when I saw my brother, Alvin coming towards our table grinning happily like an idiot as if there's no tomorrow. "Hey! Where have you been?! We thought you got stuck in the toilet like Mr. Auston!" He gave me a disgusted look. "How can you compare your hot Brother with that fat geezer? And for your information, I just got a date with my mate! Hah, take that!" My Brother childishly said with a victory smile, the same kind of smile whenever he challenges me, his little Sister. "Damn it!" Ryder exclaimed as Ricky threw his hands up in the air. "Hah! That's 100 bucks, Ryder! Now pay up boy." Ryder annoyingly fished out his wallet pulled out five 20 bucks and tossed it in Ricky's hands. Alvin stared at them confused and I decided to help him. "While you were gone, these two sidekicks of yours made a bet whether you got the girl or you didn't and as you can already tell, Ryder lost." I laughed at the situation, Alvin, on the other hand, didn't seem so happy about it. "Oh, won't you look at the time! It's so late already. I'm leaving! Bye bye!" Ryder pretends to look at his invisible watch and smiles before running away from the Alpha. "Uh, yeah Like what he said! It's late. So, um... Bye! Love you, Babe!" Ricky gave me a quick peck before turning around and disappearing down the hallway. Alvin growled in slight displeasure as he shook his head. "I swear those two will get it from me when we return to the pack house." I giggled and patted his shoulder. "Do go easy on My Rick" he rolled his eyes at me and I pouted. He saw this and sighed in defeat. "Fine. But only just a little." I smiled and hugged him before we both went our separate ways for class and now, I need to find Emily before she gets lost! Or maybe she already is. With that thought in mind, I close my eyes trying to heighten my sense of smell. There were many hundred scents around but I managed to block out what I didn't need and zeroed in on her scent. "Found her!" And zoomed down the hallway to find her. Emily's P.O.V I blushed at the thought of him calling me Emy. I kind of have to admit that I like how my name rolls off his tongue like that. No one ever calls me that, much less gave me a nickname. Oh, wait... I nearly forgot... Kelly and Kaylin used to call me that when we were close... and I used to call Kaylin, Lin as her nickname. But... we grew distant... I grew a little upset at that thought but shook off the feeling. I have no time to be feeling this, I have a mission to finish and that is to end a guy named Alvin's life weirdly Carly's brother has the same name as the guy that I'm supposed to kill. . . Hoping that it'll possibly please Father with this accomplishment. Not that I'm hoping or anything. After getting out of the janitor's closet, I started making my way to my next class, English. I didn't like English either, just like art. Kaylin has been Super good at art since young and she can easily make a replica of an artwork. She did that for her previous Mission, she was supposed to steal the original painting of "Starskell" from an auction house at Mayfield in Sandy Cove Floranna. She painted the replica in less than a day and went on her Mission that night to switch up the painting and killed off the artist and the curator of the exhibit. After that, my dad was able to sell the original at a very high price and framed the artist's brother for murder and for switching the painting. Nobody even knew that the painting was swapped until Father announced it at the conference about the death of the artist. Kaylin did such a good job at cleaning up the mission that no one was suspicious about the incident. Everyone assumes that the curator and the artist got into a fight because of the artist's Brother. Father also hangs her artwork around the house and it makes me feel inferior to Kaylin every time I see it. Kelly, on the other hand, was the queen of English. She was able to attend high-ranking meetings because of her wide vocabulary, and she was able to convince everyone that she was the CEO's stepdaughterp. The daughter, of course, is also a makeup professional hence her looks can easily be disguised during missions. She was able to sabotage the new event of the Kashen Company after the shareholders believed that she was the stepdaughter and the company immediately went bankrupt within a few hours that is when Father stepped in and became one of the largest shareholders. But the most incredible part is when Kelly and Kaylin go on Missions together. They collaborate so well that even when their plans faltered halfway they can easily get the situation under control. Father always praised them and gave them all the credit when it was due. Heck, they are the twinsets in the assassination squad, some of the other assassins working for my Father even call them the goddess of the death angels. And. .then. .there's me. . .the nobody. I hung my head Low in shame and inferiority when suddenly I felt an impact on my left shoulder. "There you are! I have been looking everywhere for you Emily!" I yelped and turned around to see Carly smiling at me as she tugged my arms across the hallway. "We're going to be late!" Oh, crap I nearly forgot that! We ran for five minutes and crashed into the room, getting funny looks from strangers who were probably going to mingle around with me for a week. I can't blame them for staring at us like some crazy people. Our hair was sticking to our faces due to the running we had to do around this enormous school. The weird part is that Carly doesn't even look tired at all! How can she manage her system like that? I have been training for years and I still get out of breath at times when I push myself to my limits. Carly dragged me to what seemed her regular seat and sat down, combing her messy hair back in place. I followed suit and sat down catching my breath, Carly looked around and giggled. "Looks like he's late again." I frowned. "Who's late again?" She laughed and took out her pencil case before answering. "Mr. Auston is always late, Rumours have it that he always goes to the toilet to do his big business before his lessons and that sometimes he gets stuck in the toilet seat he has to call for help. Hahaha! That was funny when you imagined it. Your teacher being stuck in the toilet seat, I mean, come on? Who does that nowadays?" After what she said, I was imagining the scene and let out a chuckle. It was funny. "There you go! You're smiling again, smiling looks good on you Emily." I stopped laughing and stared at her confused. "Huh?" She smiled and rested her elbows on the table. "You looked sad earlier so I wanted to cheer you up. I know that my brother can be stupid at times but he's a nice and romantic guy." Oh, she thought that I was upset with her Brother. Well, I might as well play along. "Well, I don't think cornering me in the janitor's closet is a romantic thing." I snickered causing Carly to turn my way, "he did what? Don't tell me that you are going on that date because he forced you to?" The devil in me woke up and had a very evil idea planned out, this is going to be hilarious! "Y-yeah he even started kissing and touching me, I was too scared to say anything because I was scared what if he hurt me later on if he finds out I told you." I started to tremble acting as though I was really scared and about to cry, Carly gave me a look of disbelief so I started shedding a few tears a little making it more believable, someone just gave me the Oscar awards already! She came over to my side and comforted me trying to cheer me up, "I can't believe he did that to you! I don't care if he is my brother, if he dares hurt you or do such a thing to you again, I will rip his arms off! No one violates my best friend!" If there is a volcano about to erupt in the classroom, it's Carly, before I could say a thing, the teacher came into class making everyone settle down, Carly went back to her seat and I shot her a weak smile to tell her I will be alright. . . I just wish for this lesson to end, I can't wait for lunch as Alvin is so totally going to get it from Carly, this is going to be hilarious!
