Chapter 6
Disclaimer: I don't own the KND.
Zack sighed. Nothing was going right so far. He had called Number 3 a skank, in other words a dirty sly girl.
He hadn't used this language ever yet until today.
"Umm, Zack… The team wants to talk to you about something…." Number 2 said as he stepped in the main then back out again.
Zack frowned. He knew what this would mean. Lecturing, grudges and misjudgment would follow. He didn't wanted to be hated it would mean more enemies.
As James had said once before, "In a world that uses society as a way of life there are a lot of rules! One we could start with 'To hate or be hated, to be kind or to be otherwise…."
The speech had actually gone on longer than that but there many other things in that speech that was otherwise essential to graduating out of the AC agency and into the ACE "Elite Society".
Zack looked up and noticed that the team, including Marianna and James, was sitting around the table. Everyone had various expressions on their face.
Number 4 then started talking, and boy was he mad!
"You are meanest person I've ever met! Calling Number 3 a skank is unacceptable! You are going to apologize, or else something bad will happen!"
Number 5 cleared her throat indicating that it was her turn to speak.
"Well, Number 5 thinks that you should apologize and leave Number 3 be! Number 4, Number 5 thinks that you should calm down. There's no need to murder someone over name calling."
Zack listened patiently. He wanted to say something but it seemed like the wrong time to so he waited instead.
Number 4 spoke some more.
"You dirty RAT! You made Number 3 cry! You're going to pay…"
Zack paid no attention to Number 4. He was zoning out as usual, thinking back to something that had happened long ago…
"You have no right to speak! You have done something wrong you witch!" a voice cried from the stands.
Zack watched the movie more intently. He knew something bad was going to happen to the girl on TV.
"Rebecca, you are the witch! You have no right to live! You have wronged, and nothing can be done to save you from damnation!"
The villagers then grabbed Rebecca from her home and set her upon a stake.
"You shall burn in hell for all those sins you have committed!"
Rebecca had tears streaming down her face.
"I am innocent! I deserve to live my life out normally"
Zack turned off the TV. Besides, he still needed to finish his homework…
Number 4 was still going. Zack wasn't surprised or even calm. He felt like the girl Rebecca in that TV show he had watched a few years ago.
They might as well burn me at stake at least, Zack thought in sarcasm.
As Number 4 had been saying…
"As I say, there must some way we can punish Zack! I mean hurting Number 3 like that is unacceptable…"
Zack spoke up. He getting tired of all the bull that was being spoken about him, it was time to strike back.
"Well, I see someone has got themselves a new hobby… going around and making outrageous statements about others, freaking out over small situations, and trying to be smart. I guess a smart guy like you can figure out what I'm talking about right?"
Number 4 then responded,
"You hurt Number 3! You're not supposed to hurt team members!"
Zack snickered. And this guy is supposed to be tough?
"I know that. Who wouldn't know? Here on my behalf, I'm apologizing for my inappropriate behavior. Deal?"
Zack then held out his hand. I wonder if Number 4 is going to shake it…
Number 4 came up and shook his hand.
Zack smiled with relief.
"By making amends Number 4, you have done very well! To make enemies with the AC would've been a bad choice."
Number 4 frowned with suspicion.
"No funny business, or else!" Number 4 said.

Even if there much reviews, I'm still glad that I have some. ;
