Chapter 24 - Chapter 24

Monri: Nice to see you two again after a long time. Are both of you still doing archery and music?

Aria: Yup, we've been on the grind. How about you? What have you been up to? Are you and Kayla dating? I saw you come in together.

Monri: I've been good, just working, and no, we aren't dating, we just live together

Aria: Aww, that's a shame you two would be a great couple, OH, since you've never been here before, we are going to play The Game, like the one we did after school

Monri: Really? Everyone here still plays it?

Aria: Of course, why else would people come

Andy speaks in his quiet voice

Andy: Maybe to see everyone again...

Aria: That's boring.... OH Monri, are you busy in 4 days?

Monri: Probably not

Aria: Well, I need a hunting buddy, and Andy here doesn't like hunting, so would you like to join me, Pleaseeeee

Monri: Alright, if I have nothing going on that day, then I'll join you

Aria: YAYYYYY YOU'RE THE BEST

She walks up and hugs him with all of her strength.

Monri: can't.... breathe

She lets go of him and steps back.

Aria: oops, sorry

Monri: It's fine, you're just the same. Andy, how is your music career going

Andy: It's going good.... thanks for asking

Aria: Yeah, my brother is killing it

Monri's phone rings as he sees Cassandra calling him.

Monri: Excuse me, I need to take this

He gets up and walks to a quiet corner and answers the phone, and puts it to his ear.

Monri: Hey, Cassandra, is everything all right?

Cassanda: yeah.... my mom is going out for a week.... so she will pay you when she comes back for the whole week

Monri: All right, is that all?

Cassandra: One more thing.... actually never mind.... It's not important.

Monri: Just say it

Cassandra: I was wondering.... if you wouldn't mind... staying over tonight.... I..... just never been alone in the house for a week...

Monri: I wouldn't mind at all

Cassandra: Really?

Monri: Yeah, I gotta go, but I'll text you when I'm going to your apartment, but I'm with some friends, so I'll come later in the night

Cassandra: Okay.... thank you

She says the last part very quietly and then immediately hangs up. Zane speaks up, and he is standing next to the bar with a blue wooden box with the top open, and next to it is a pencil and small rectangular papers.

Zane: Everyone, I think it's time to play the game, and since there some new faces i will explains the rules, so to start everyome come over here and write your name on the peice of paper and put it on the box then someone will pick teo peices of paper and who ever name is on it will be one of the two team captains

One by one, everyone goes up and writes their names on it and puts it in the box.

Zane: As usual, Harvy will pick the two papers for the team leaders

Everyone looks a Harvey as he is leaning back on a chair, as he has curly white hair, black eyes that also look tired, as he is wearing a black sweater, sweatpants, and slippers. Harvey spoke in his usual tired voice.

Harvey: Did some say my name?

Zane: Yeah, we need you to pick two pieces of paper from the box

Harvey: Okay

He slowly gets up and yawns, then goes to the box and grabs a random paper.

Harvey: First team leaders are..... Zane

He grabs another random paper.

Harvey: Second team leader is..... Monri

Zane: Well, as the two leaders have been chosen, does anyone need a reminder on how the game is played

Anthony: I forgot. Can you say it again?

Zane: All right, ok so the two team captains will pick 13 members each and the leader will have 3 squads with 4 people each and 1 extra for backup incase so eoen gets hurt, I decided to up the quality on the game as in a bit two limos arrive to take each team leader to a warehouse i own, while we wait Me and Monri will start choosing each member, Monri since you havent played in a while, you can choose first

Monri: Thank you. I chose Kayla.

She walks to Monri's side.

As Monri picks Aria, Zane picks Serra and Adrian. Before Monri can pick the next person, everyone hears some vehicles driving and stop outside as Zane speaks.

Zane: Well... well, the limo drivers got here earlier than expected, so let's rapid fire, let's do 4 at a time
