School Garden.

Selina: Who sent you?

Danson: Shouldn't I be the one to ask you this question?

Selina: Are you in the same league as them? *glanced at Jiro and Aaron who are at the 2nd floor*

Danson: Don't link me together with them.

Selina: If not, who are you?

Danson: That's for you to find out.

Danson walked away.

Selina:*Thinking* He looked familiar. Where did I see him before?

-----------------------------

2nd floor.

Jiro: Who's the guy that was talking to Selina?

Aaron: Beats me.

Suddenly, a masked man left a file on the table and walked away swiftly.

A post-it note was on the file.

Jiro took out the note and read it.

Jiro: Tonight's targets.

Aaron scanned through the pages.

Aaron: There's two.

Jiro looked at what Aaron is looking.

Jiro: Wow, one for you and one for me. Which one do you want? The 100,000 one or the 90-

Aaron: You can take both if you want.

Aaron walked away.

Jiro: Hey dude, I can't handle them together at once!

Aaron: Ask Bowie then.

Aaron was out of sight.

'He really loved the girl, don't he?'

Jiro looked around.

Jiro: Don't scare me like that!

Bowie was sitting on the stairs, masked.

Bowie: So it's the two of us tonight?

Jiro nodded.

Bowie sped down the stairs.

Bowie: See you then!

Jiro raced towards the stairs and ran down.

JIro looked around and there wasn't anyone.

Jiro's cellphone beep.

Message:
Want to know who I am?
Wait longer!
Haha.
Bowie.

Jiro smiled to himself.

-----------------------------

Class 401.

Aaron walked in and only Hebe was inside.

Aaron: Where are the rest?

Hebe: I don't know…

Aaron: Oh…

Aaron sat at his own desk.

Silence.

Students started coming in and take their own places.

The bell rang and it was time for lessons.

----------------------------------

During break.

Genie: Hebe, why are you eating alone? Where's Selina?

Hebe: I don't know…

Genie: Even Aaron's not around, I thought you two were good friends. *smiled*

Hebe: Well, something happened.

Genie: Oh… No matter what happens, try to cheer up!

Hebe: Thanks Genie.

-------------------
School. Rooftop.

Selina: Do you like Hebe?

Aaron: Why do you ask?

Selina: If you have ulterior motives towards her, I won't let you off.

Aaron: What makes you think so?

Selina: You and Jiro are not simple.

Aaron: What do you mean?

Selina: I don't have to spell it out, do I?

Aaron: Then who are you?

Selina: I don't have to tell you.

Aaron: Are you one of those people who wants Hebe's life?

Selina: No, I'm protecting her from those people, and also from YOU people.

Aaron: I will never hurt her.

Selina: Assassins can't be trusted, you thought of killing her didn't you?

Aaron: I… I don't have a choice.

Selina: So what's the reason behind the fight? It's related to Hebe, isn't it?

---Recall---

Jiro: You are supposed to be in showbiz, why are you here?

Aaron: Boss sent me here because you couldn't kill Hebe, and it's been dragging for 4 years.

Jiro: I don't understand, she's such a nice girl… Why would people pay to kill her?

Aaron: We don't have to know, we just do our jobs and get paid.

Jiro: Aaron, you like her too, don't you?

Aaron: But I don't have a choice…

Jiro: You do, as long as you keep her alive, we can think of ways to get her out of this mess!

Aaron: If you can't kill her, let me do it.

Jiro grabbed Aaron's arm.

Jiro: Are you an idiot?! You loved her don't you?!

Aaron: Love is nothing compa-

Jiro punched Aaron's face and Aaron fell to the ground.

Jiro: Stop speaking like you're a robot! It's okay to have feelings!

Aaron: I'm indebted to Boss, I must obey all his commands.

Jiro pulled Aaron's shirt.

Jiro: Snap out of it!

Aaron: We are assassins, we are not supposed to have feelings.

Jiro pushed Aaron and he fell to the ground.

---End---

Selina: You knew Hebe way before you transferred in?

Aaron nodded.

Aaron: My meeting with her was a coincidence.

---Recall---

'AHH! SKY!'

Aaron began to run and he bumped into a girl.

Aaron: I'm sorry!

Hebe: It's okay.

Aaron took Hebe's phone by mistake and he ran away.

---End---

Selina stared at Aaron.

Aaron: What?

Selina: You don't look like Sky.

Aaron: Thanks to a girl named Bowie, she helped me with my face.

Selina: You meant the one who used Bowie knives to kill? She's a girl?!

Aaron nodded.
