Animal Crossing : No Way Out
Chapter One : A Shot in the Dark
His furry brown feet padded softly across the blood red carpet. His breathing was steady, his expression calm. In one hand he carried a box with lots of black, mechanical parts in it. In the other he carried a small pearl telescope, with the initials T.N inscribed in it. As he carefully ascended to the top floor, he became less and less composed. At the top floor, he gave in and sighed nervously. He hadn't wanted this job. He hadn't wanted this assignment. He hadn't wanted any of it. But he had no choice. It was this or death. As he reached the window, he opened it quietly and began assembling the parts in his box. He assembled them into a long sniper rifle, and set it down carefully on the floor beside him. He hurriedly placed the telescope to his left eye, and closed his right one. He peered between the trees towards a large wooden house, with a sky blue roof and a rose garden.
"Ohhh, it had to come to this..." he sighed nervously. He picked up the sniper rifle, switched on the laser sight and place his eye to the magnification lens. He scanned the area in his small, circular scope, and quickly found an open window in the houses' wall. He lined up the laser sight with his sleeping targets' forehead. The magnification was so powerful that he could see the boy's chest rising and falling, rising and falling... Soon, it would not be moving at all. He took a deep breath, and readied his paw to pull the trigger.
TommoPK woke up suddenly, immediately forgetting his dream and scanning the room. He glanced at his alarm clock. 02 : 04. Two in the morning. Normally, he would have shrugged it off and gone back to sleep, but he couldn't escape a feeling of wariness developing in his stomach. And that was when he noticed it. A very thin red line, thin enough for him not to have seen it earlier. He traced it back to its' source. It was coming from Nookington's, the department store down the road. The line juddered suddenly. Then TommoPK realised what made lines like that. This line was a laser sight, and the things that make laser sights are... guns? No... But, yes, somebody was aiming at him from the top floor of Nookington's. He quickly thought of everybody that worked there. Harriet the hairdresser... no WAY. She's not a killer. Tommy and Timmy? Nah, they were too young to be killers. But Tom Nook himself? At the exact same moment that TommoPK had realised who his mystery assassin was, a shot echoed through the night sky. It took less than a second for the high-velocity projectile to start finish its' journey through the tranquility of the night and tear into his leg.
"GAAAAHHH!" TommoPK screamed, waking up his neighbour Angus. Blood poured out of his leg, but he managed to haul himself up off of his bed and out of view in case anybody was, oh, say, SHOOTING AT HIM THROUGH THE WINDOW. He crouched and sprinted down the stairs, switching on the lights as he went. He had to sprint with one leg, seeing as it had been shot by, he presumed, the owner of Nookington's, the evil raccoon businessman, Tom Nook.
TommoPK sprinted out of his house, going around the opposite side to Nookington's. He knocked on Angus' door, and was met by an angry bull in pink pyjamas.
"TommoPK! What are you doing screaming like that in the middle of-" at the sight of TommoPK's blood-spattered leg, he fainted. TommoPK rushed into Angus' house, dragging Angus himself in with him. He walked over to Angus' high-end stereo, and programmed it to play Cafe K.K. He lay down on Angus' green sofa, his leg propped against the wall, and tried to relax. He focused on Angus' chest rising and falling as he lay unconscious on the floor, and eventually closed his eyes and fell asleep again.
