!It hurts!

No POV (Or author’s POV?)

Months had passed since that day, and a lot had changed with the six of them. Cutting to the chase, let’s start off by talking about their lives as of the moment.

First off, Mij.

She was at her usual pace now, not letting anything get in her way. She was being successful as ever. She had released her newest album named “No More”. It was basically her ‘hugot’ album to release all her feelings on the events that took place a few m...

 A/N: Omgomg THANK YOU MIJ FOR WRITING SUCH A WONDERFUL ASDFGHJKL-

Btw, the funeral is focused on my character more since Mij said it would be too long to ponder on each death. Besides, mine would have the most impact since the characters did resonate with my character the most n' stuff. Anyway, onto the chapter.

!Please keep quiet!

(POV: Mij)

Funny how we always take people we care about for granted. We only acknowledge them when they're...

A.) Dead.

B.) Dying.

C.) Going thro...

!The court is in session!

No POV

After weeks of discussion in court, Zoe Parker was found guilty for the murders of Maxine Perez, Miguel Rivilla, Patricia Herce, and even Matthew Weimer. It took a while to discover how he died, but Zoe had given up and openly admitted the events that led to his death. Bianca added a few more significant details to the tale.

Matthew Weimer had sent her a letter; it was basically a love letter. A few months passed and he finally arrived in the Phili...

(POV: Nikki)

                I arrive at the meeting place that this “invitation” told me to go to. I know that this was a stupid idea, but I followed anyway. I’m tired of this game of hide and seek. I want to know the truth. It’s me they want, right? They can have me. I don’t want anyone else to die. I arrive ten minutes earlier than expected so I could hide. I’m actually inside a trash can right now. How I got in? Please don’t ask. Though ever since I got he...

(POV: THE UNKNOWN #7)

                Something big is going to happen.. I can feel it. Everyone has been acting so strange lately… I want to get to the bottom of this immediately. If I don’t, I might just die as well. I swear I’ll kill whoever is behind this… Failure is not an option. I will surpass this ordeal; nothing can stop me.

And with that thought, I get out of my seat and call someone to help me out. She’s against this, but I no longer give a fuck. She fails to real...

(POV: UNKNOWN #6)

                We arrive at my place. We chat for a bit, talking about casual things. She then brings up Nikki’s case. We share some stories and stuff that we know as she was discussing it. She also asked me some questions about high school and all that. My relationship with Nikki, and stuff like that. I feel like she was asking questions that were too personal, but I answered them anyway. She then explains some more stuff and then wraps it up.

“…And that’s ...

(POV:THE UNKNOWN #1)

The airport, finally. I breathe a sigh of relief as I arrive. I’m finally back home. But, the atmosphere just seems very strange and off for some reason. It’s as if the world decided to turn its back on me…

“POTATO!” Someone from a distance had just shouted at me. I turn around and I see a familiar face waving at me. I walk towards her and greet her back in the rudest way possible.

“Fuck you, fuck yourself, fuck your dreams, fuck off.” Was the first ...

(POV: Mij)

                It’s been a day after the deaths of Pat and Miguel. Everyone’s just dying. Who’s next? I honestly don’t want to believe that it was Angeliz all along. I trusted her, everyone did. Angeliz and Nikki are coming back from Japan today. They should be arriving soon. I take a deep breath, sit down and turn on the TV to watch the news.

“Today, a man is found dead. Investigators suggest that this was suicide due to the injuries he had sustained. They assume t...

(POV: ?)

I was being chased by someone three times my size. I had a gun, but for some reason, I just couldn’t shoot. I don’t know what’s going to happen next anymore. I was running at my top speed, but she’s catching up to me. I take sharp turns around the halls and jump over various furniture just to escape. That didn’t seem to hinder her at all. How is that even possible!? From my peripheral field of vision, I could see her. Is she finally going to end my misery? Will she be t...

(POV: Zoe)

Sitting down and working for a giant company I own is very stressful. Now that I think about it, I haven’t seen them in a while. I’ve been so busy with work that I can’t even chat with them anymore. I have so much shit to deal with here. My employees don’t know how to do their shit right. It annoys the crap out of me. It’s not just my company that keeps me as busy as fuck. I also have to deal with Nathan and all his shit. My life basically sucks like shit. Why do I de...

(POV: ?)

                What the hell is taking so long? I should just get a move on; I don’t care anymore. As I was waiting for her, old memories flash in my head.. Why at a time like this? Why does this keep happening? Tears slowly fall from my eyes.  I start to zone out…

“Hey, are you listening?” He says as he was snapping his fingers right in front of me.

“What?” I reply, as if I had just woken up from a dream.

“I said, I love you.” So he actually said tha...

(POV: Angeliz)

*RING!*

My phone rings as I was driving back to the hotel. Cold sweat trickles down my forehead. I really hope my prediction wasn’t right. I pick up and answer my phone. Fuck no texting and driving. Well, this is a call… Fuck that.

“ANGELIZ-SAN! TAKAMINA-SAMA… SHE-“ I don’t let him finish. I could already tell what he was going to say next.

“Whatever you do, don’t go near her body. But, don’t let anything touch her corpse either. I’ll be there ...

(POV: Angeliz)

                I cannot believe I was able to bear this burden of being with Nikki for such a long span of time. Right after the incident that occurred a few days ago, everyone in the studio started to trust me even more now since I was able to protect everyone. No one was harmed that time, thank God. The police weren’t able to catch Ponytail though. This makes things a lot more difficult for me. I have to be on my guard 24/7.

*Ring-ding...

(POV: Patricia)

                I feel completely useless. Everyone has something to do, except for me. I’m just here, not doing anything. None of them trust me to do anything. Am I really that stupid? Why am I only asked to help out when they start to do something art-related? Ugh.

                Something touches the back of my neck. Well, it didn’t really ‘touch’ though. It felt like something passed by my neck. I look around, but I know no one’s here but me. Was it a b...

(NO POV)

Angeliz patiently waits for the ‘criminal’ to wake up.

“Man, I didn’t know my kick could to that.” She says to herself.

Earlier, Angeliz had told Nikki and the others that she’d handle the criminal and she had instructed everyone to just continue what they were doing as if nothing happened. Angeliz then brought the unconscious criminal to an isolated room, still within the building. Angeliz already knew who this ‘criminal’ was. She wanted her to stop before she en...

(POV: Arissa)

“Nikki’s an idiot..” Blake says.

“Yeah she is.” I reply.

The two of us were monitoring Nikki and Angeliz on my laptop. At this rate, they might think that my company’s filled with idiots. Ugh. I really hope Angeliz can fix this. Blake and I continue monitoring them.

“I’m sorry about that mishap there. As I said earlier, that girl is mentally retarded. I didn’t want her to come, but I can’t leave her alone either. She could do something even worse if...

(POV: Angeliz)

“I’m so excited! I get to go to Japan! I get to meet Takamina-san! I really wish I could get her autograph and a picture with her maybe! Omg, she might give me an AKB0048 album for free! Isn't this great, Angeliz!?”

I know you’re hearing what I’m hearing, and yes you’re right. That, that, that is the MOST irritating, dumb, stupid, idiotic, moronic, imbecilic and annoying voice in the entire universe. I could come up with a whole new dictionary...

8:00 AM

(POV: Zoe)

It’s been about three days after Max’s death. Arissa’s managing Max’s wake and burial, while I’m here trying to help Nathan. Mij suggested that we bring him to a psychiatrist, but I know that’ll just make things worse. Nathan usually ignores me, but it’s like he wants to tell me something… I wonder what it is. I want to tell him something too, but… I don’t think I’ll be able to tell him, ever. I’m just going to make a fool out ...

(POV: Nathan)

I hear a beeping sound. As I was about to dash back into the room, I feel some people gripping both my arms. They start pulling me back. I could see Miguel from the corner of my eye. He rushes into the emergency room while I’m being pulled back. The two finally let go.

“It’s going to be alright. Calm yourself.” Zoe says.

“Yeah.” I say.

 I sit down and wait patiently. I look around. Blake, Zoe and Bianca are chatting with each other. Angeliz’s messing with ...

(POV: Zoe)

The door is kicked open by Arissa. She isn't sick at all. She looks like she's going to have a mental breakdown at any time now.

"MMM-AAAA-- ISSSSSSS-" Arissa says loudly while stuttering.

"Calm down first, then tell us." Miguel says. Arissa shakes her head and tries to talk once again.

"CRRRITTTT--TI--CCCC CC-NNNNDITTT-NNNN GOOO HOSSSSPPPPP-!!"

She loses her breath. She doesn't look to good. I guess she is really sick.

"WHAT!? I'LL TELL YOU GUYS WHAT SHE SAID LATER, WE H...

9:00 AM

(POV: Arissa)

I feel really stupid. I’m not really sick. I’m just faking it. I forced my work on Angeliz, I’m ridiculous. But, I do believe that she can persuade Takamina and the management to accept the offer. She’s good at that. But still, I feel bad that I did that. I just feel too tired and stressed to work. I’m beginning to give up and just shut down the company. I just want a simple, peaceful life now, but ...

10:00 PM

(POV: Blake)

The rain's pouring really hard tonight. Nikki, Angeliz and Arissa are still stuck in traffic. I wonder if they got any new information from Marc. They're really taking long just to get back. I wonder what happened to them?

"OPEN THE DOOR, DAMMIT!" I hear a voice shout.

I could already tell. It was Angeliz who shouted just now. I head over and open the door.

"Woah." I say, shocked.

Angeliz ‘s carrying Arissa, using her arms, and Nikki's...

(POV: Arissa)

“WHY DID YOU DO THAT!? I ALMOST DIED, YOU KNOW!” Nikki shouts furiously at Angeliz.

“Sorry, sorry. We’re in a rush. Just don’t interfere too much and you’ll be fine.” Angeliz says calmly.

“RUSH?! DID SOMETHING HAPPEN!?” Nikki shouts worriedly.

“Not really. We’ll tell you later.” I say and we get in Angeliz’s car.

“Where are we going?” Nikki asks, with her face leaning on the car’s window. She looks like a little...

October 17, 2020

8:00AM

(POV: Mij)

Miguel and I are planning to investigate more about Max's accident while Angeliz is investigating Nikki's accident with Arissa. Well, at least that's my guess. I suspect that because Arissa and Angeliz seem to buy more and more stuff with my money. Geez, they have their own money, dammit. But then again, they could just be using my money for random shit. Miguel and I drive over to a warehouse where they sell a lot of chairs; we're hoping to learn mo...

(POV: Mij)

*RING, RING!*

I get my phone see the message I had just received. It's from Angeliz.

FROM: ANGELIZ "DA POTATO"

MESSAGE:

HOLY CARP. GO TO HOSPITAL NAOOOO BITCH.

WHAT. A. MESSAGE. SHE SENDS ME THIS SHIT WITHOUT EVEN GIVING ME THE ADDRESS OR THE NAME OF THE HOSPITAL. WONDERFUL POTATO.

But, she never texts like this. Is something going on? I wonder.

*RING!*

I immediately grab and look at my phone. It's from Angeliz again.

(No POV)

"Max doesn't seem so great. I'm guessing she's in a critical condition, right?" Angeliz asks the doctor.

Everyone could hear the conversation inside the emergency room. Angeliz seemed to be the only one with enough courage to talk casually right in front of her dying friend.

"How can Angeliz be like that at a time like this?" Arissa says with a worried look on her face.

"I don't know, but I think I should be talking to the doctor, not her." ...

(No POV)

"So, Marc asked me out on a date that time at the restaurant Treasure Chest. Angeliz drove me there. The restaurant was giant. I never knew Marc could afford that. Inside was even more stunning than the outside. I couldn't find Marc at first, until he hugged me from behind. He led me to an elevator that lead to the top floor. The top floor was different from the rest of the floors, the walls were embedded with pearls and only a few people, I'm guessing billionaires could only aff...

October 13, 2020

(POV: Nikki)

That world of darkness that I was in before, it’s such a lonely place. I’m glad I don’t ever have to go back there ever again.  Seeing my friends makes my day already. I guess I really missed them. They may be a pile of troublemakers and retards, but they’re awesome in their own way.

“Ohaider.” Angeliz says.

I sit up straight and I greet her back.

“Albert’s getting your breakfast. You’re going to be discharged today.” Ange...

(POV: ?????)

This place, it’s empty, lifeless. I’ve been here for quite a while now. I don’t know why I’m stuck in this barren wasteland. I used to have such a happy life, with my friends around, though some of my friends bug me, I still love them no matter what. I wonder what happened to him. He was the man of my dreams. WAS. After he had done that, I don’t think I can trust him anymore. I may not know why I’m in this dark and empty place, but I can officially say that I’m ...

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!"

(POV: Arissa)

I stab his chest. He falls to the ground in pain. There were tears coming out from his eyes and blood spewing out everywhere. No, this is too easy. He wouldn't lose that easily. Or did I really kill him? Wait, no. He never gives up without a fight.

I back away with my sword on my right hand, ready to attack. My other sword remained in Blake's chest. A few minutes pass, I know he ...

(POV: Arissa)

Angeliz and I were teleported to different locations. I ended up back at the supplies center. I suddenly see and arrow coming towards me, I quickly dodge and run towards the source of the arrow. Three more come at me, one hits me, but the other two miss. I slice the bushes and see Blake. Gotcha.

(POV: Blake)

Shit, she's fast. I stand and run away from her. She didn't seem to give chase though.

"Ohaider." Angeliz says.

This is bad, Arissa's a few feet a...

(POV: Maxine)

Nathan and I walk towards the direction of where Angeliz's voice came from, once we arrived, we hid behind the trees and bushes. I slowly bend down and grab my bow. I aim at Arissa and shoot three arrows at her, two hit her, but one misses. She turns around and runs towards me, I run away as fast as I can.

"WOLFE HAS BEEN KILLED BY ~REYES, A. E.~"

"What the!?" I say. How the fuck did he die so quickly? I stop running and turn around. Arissa was right in front of me....

(POV: Blake)

Well, she's dead. I thought to myself.

"Are you alright? You're bleeding." Bianca says while hugging me.

"Yeah, I'm fine." I say.

She steps back and says, "Liar."

"Yeah, yeah, whatever. Let's get going before Jamie kills the crap out of us." I say and walk away. Bianca follows. We walk aimlessly around the arena for minutes.

"SURPRISE!" A high and pitchy voice shouts. I quickly turn around and see Jamie running towards Bianca and raises her whacking sti...

(POV: Zoe)

The sun is slowly going down. Jamie's hunting for food, while I'm setting traps and making weapons. I start walking around the place, finding a good spot to set some traps, suddenly; I see a giant hole nearby. I approach the hole and look down. Holy shit. Who sets such a giant trap like this? I wonder. It would be too obvious, unless someone really dumb didn't see that thing coming. And how the fuck did that person have time to make such giant trap in a span of a few hours? I p...

"Blake, just put your face really close to hers, and the rest of you, say 'Welcome back!' on my signal." Angeliz says.

(POV: Bianca)

The tutorial finally ends. I slowly removed the helmet and open my eyes. I see Blake. His face was so close to mine. I could feel his breath; I could see every detail of his face. He smiles at me and he doesn't move his face away. I immediately turn red and I end up staring at him. Suddenly, I hear people shouting, "Welcome back!" I quickly move my body ...

(POV: Maxine)

I felt something poking my face. I slowly open my eyes, it was Nathan, as I had expected. He smirks and says, "You look great, dress up we're being called already." He says. I have a feeling that he's messing with me now, that smirk looked suspicious. I look at myself in the mirror. "NATHAN YOU ASS!" I shout.

 "You look great, right?" Nathan says and chuckles.

There are permanent marker drawings all over my face! He drew on my face while I was asleep. What the hell. ...

"So, explain everything." Jason says.

"Alright, so Arissa owns a company, right? It explains why she's always busy. So she ends up not having enough time with him, but he was always patient, and he'd say, it's okay or something like that. Arissa loved him, but he didn't want him to be lonely all the time, so..."

(POV: Arissa)

"You have work even on the holidays? That's tough. Need help?" He asks.

"I'm alright. I can do this." I tell him.

"Do your best." He says and smiles....

10:00 AM

They all went out of the plane, carrying their things.

"So where will we all stay and where are we?" Zoe asks.

"Don't worry about where we're going to stay, I've got that covered. Anyway, we're in Capitol. The place's name is literally Capitol. It's an artificial island made just to replicate the Hunger Games. My friend owns this island." Blake replies.

"Heyo! Blake, Angeliz! Long time no see." Someone shouts and approaches them. He beams at them and l...

8:00AM

"AHH!" Zoe screams. "What the hell was that?" Nathan says while approaching Zoe. "Oh, sorry. I accidentally broke the glass." She replies. "I can help you clean up." Nathan says and starts helping out. "Guys, it's time to eat breakfast." Blake says over the plane's microphone. Nathan stands up and throws away the pieces of shattered glass. He offers his hand to Zoe. He grins and says, "Stand up and let's go!"

(POV: Zoe)

Why is my heart beating rapidly? Damn....

July 31, 2020

6:00 AM

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" Maxine shouts at Angeliz's ear while she was sleeping. Angeliz falls off her bed and once she got up she slaps Maxine's face.

"Why the hell are you here?" Angeliz asks.

"To greet you, what else?" Maxine says.

"How'd you get here so early?"

"Got up early, got Nathan to bring me here."

"You'd even bother Nathan for this? The fudge man."

"He was the one who woke me up."

"Really?"

"Yeah, he was like, Max get up! It's ...

9:00 AM

"Hm... Its July 12 today... July... OHSHT, ARISSA'S MESSAGE." Angeliz shouts. She gets out of bed and rushes to eat breakfast and change clothes. "Wait... She never said where we'd meet. Wait... Is she coming HERE!?" Angeliz freaks out. "If, if she sees... I guess I have to think of a distraction for them." Angeliz mumbles to herself. Suddenly the door bell rings, Angeliz dashes to the door, hoping that she'd be ahead of Blake and Bianca to open the door.

(POV: ...

11:00PM

Angeliz finally arrives at her house. She slowly gets out of her car and walks toward the doorway. Maxine follows. Angeliz knocks on the door and immediately Blake opens the door. He looks at Angeliz and says, "What the hell happened to you?”

"I'll explain later, let me in." Angeliz answers.

"Alright, alright." Blake says.

Angeliz and Maxine get inside, Maxine sits down on the couch and Angeliz walks over to a room and gets bandages and water. She come...

7:00PM

Angeliz arrives at Maxine's house. She runs towards the entrance and knocks on the door. A few minutes pass, she knocks again. No one was opening the door. "What the hell!? Why isn't anyone opening the door?" Angeliz says, pissed. She had soon become impatient and kicks the door open. She walks  inside of Maxine's house. "OW!” Angeliz shouts. "These doors are too small." Angeliz says to herself. She gets inside, but there was no sign of Maxine nearby. "Where the he...

"Ack, I can't think, I don't know where to start in making this character!" Angeliz shouts to herself in the tranquil room.

"Hey, what the hell!?" Shouted Blake.

"Oh, sorry. I can't think of a design for this character I'm making." Angeliz replies.

"Try going outside rather than trapping yourself in this room to get ideas." Blake says.

"Rather not. It's a heat wave out there." Angeliz replies.

"Oh yeah, I'll introduce you to her later. I'll just ...

11:30 PM

"Nikki, you idiot. See what happens when you don't think before you act? Look at yourself, you're in a coma!" Angeliz says to Nikki, who was lying down on the hospital bed, unconscious. "Gah, I sound insane talking to you, it's like I'm talking to myself. Oh yeah, I'd better contact the others so that they could visit you." Angeliz then picks up her phone and starts texting.

A beautiful dark and starry night, perfect for going out, eating dinner, watching the stars, and a lot more. This night is perfect. Especially for the girl named Nikki Abarquez. For her, this is the night, the night that would change her life forever. She stood in front of the mirror, looking at herself and smiling, thinking to herself; "This is the night, the night of my life!" "Are you freaking done staring at yourself? You know I still have things to do after this." That w...
