SOUL EATER: ~AFTERMATH~
Chapter 20 - Paintball War... Choose Your Colors Wisely?
(THIS IS AN OMAKE CHAPTER)
"Okay everyone, are we clear on the rules? No soul resonance, no leaving the battlefield until shot, and keep head shots to a minimum..." Jake finished giving instructions.
"GOT IT!" they all shouted back.
"Hey where's Messor and Ryder... Dani's not here either." Luna asked curiously.
"Messor and Ryder said they were going to play... Guess not." Jake shrugged.
"...and Dani?" Clarabella looked at him.
"She said she didn't want to play."
"Ha, your girlfriend is afraid to play? That's not cool." Soul chuckled.
"She's not afraid to play! She just doesn't want to..."
"Whatever... so are we going to start this thing?"
"Yeah, LET'S GO!" the two teams scattered like leaves in a gale force wind. Once they were in position the game began. The red team was made up of Jake, Death the Kid, Luna, Patty and Tsubaki, blue team had Soul, Black Star, Liz, Clarabella, and Messor wherever he was. Jake signaled to Kid who made his way around a group of trees. He laid down and began to crawl, that's when Jake lost sight of him.
"Patty, I need you to-" he started to command Patty until he saw rolling in the brush. "Never mind..."
Tsubaki tapped Jake on the shoulder and pointed to movement in the bushes. He nodded then opened fire. Whatever it was he hit it, then when she screamed he knew exactly who he had hit.
"YOU DICK! I SAID I DIDN'T WANT TO PLAY!" Dani was shouting at him. Her coat was covered in red paint.
"Well... you're already here, why not stay?" Jake asked chuckling and hiding his gun behind his back.
"I came to ask you what you wanted for dinner later... but now I don't think I'm going to make you any."
"Bu-... Daaaaaniiiiiii..." he whined. She ran over and kissed him on the forehead.
"Just kidding! How can I help?"
Jake handed her a paintball gun and told her who they were up against. She didn't seem to like the enemy line up but she agreed to play. She slipped off her coat and took away a layer of pants so she was wearing a t-shirt and shorts. Jake stared for a moment then came up with an excuse when he noticed that Dani was watching him.
"Um... You really wear that much clothes?" he scratched at his head while he spoke.
"Oh, shut up... thanks." she blushed.
"Well this should be easy we just need to watch out for sneak attacks."
"But Black Star is a ninja that's so unfair!"
"Yeah, but so is Tsubaki and to be quite honest she's a better ninja than him."
"Oh... I'm not that good." Tsubaki said blushing.
"What if he sneaks up on me an-"
"YAAAAAAHOOOOOOOO!" Black Star shouted from the trees behind them. Dani screamed and fired wildly hitting him right in the chest and forehead and knocking him out of the tree.
"Oops... sorry!" Dani apologized for shooting him.
"No... Dani that's the point of the game." Jake smacked his forehead.
"Oh... I GOT YOU!"
"Black Star!" Tsubaki stood up and ran over to help him, but before she could get to him was hit directly in the chest.
"OW! HE HIT ME RIGHT IN MY BREAST!"
Jake started laughing at the mention of the word breast and Dani smacked him in the back of the head. They looked around for where the shot had come from. Dani pointed something out that confused Jake.
"Which team has black paint?"
Messor was crouched on a branch with his paintball sniper admiring the shot he had just made.
"You missed her head..." Ryder said frowning.
"Shut up..." Messor said punching Ryder.
"WHEN DO I GET TO SHOOT!" he shouted rubbing his arm.
"When you pry this gun from my dying hands..."
"That can be arranged..." a voice spoke from behind them. They turned around to see Death the Kid pointing both of his paintball guns at each of their heads. Back over by their HQ Jake heard to shots fire in the distance.
"So, we got Black Star and they got Tsubaki. That still leaves Messor, Ryder, Soul, Clarabella and Liz."
"Patty..." Dani said poking at the girl who was rolling around like a pig.
"La-la-la-la, whaaaaat, la-la-la" Patty wasn't paying attention to her.
"Come on Patty, you gotta shoot someone."
"OKAY!" Patty jumped to her feet and shot Luna in the back.
"OUCH! WHAT THE HELL PATTY?" Luna shouted in pain.
"You're out!" Patty shouted back happily. She shot her again and Luna said she wasn't going to play if that moron was on their team.
"Great... now it's down to me, you, Kid and Patty." Jake sighed. Kid made his way back to the group and stood up.
"I've taken care of Messor and Ryder. Even better I did it with perfect sym-"
A paintball flew out of nowhere and hit him on his right side. Kid gasped and Jake thought that it must've really hurt.
"NOOOOOOOO! DON'T JUST HIT ONE SIDE! YOU HAVE TO MAKE IT EVEN! SHOOT MY OTHER SIDE! HOW COULD YOU?" he froze for a moment then fainted.
"Wow..." Dani stared at Jake for a moment. Liz grinned at Clarabella. They had managed to sneak close to the red team's base.
"That was worth the scolding I'm going to get later. She started laughing uncontrollably and Clarabella couldn't help but join her.
"Yeah, haha, it was totally awesome!"
"Was it worth giving away your position?" Jake asked standing over the two of them.
"...Shit..." they spoke at the same time before Jake shot both of them.
"Okay now, Dani and Patty I need you to-"
"Hello, Jake..." Soul walked out from behind a tree holding Patty by the arm with his paintball gun to her head.
"Oh come on Soul, you know I said limit the head shots..."
"Good point!" he replied turning his gun to Jake and shooting him in the chest.
"DAMMIT!" Jake fell over and looked at Dani who was hiding behind a tree out of Soul's line of sight, "Avenge me..."
Soul made Patty get on her knees and put her hands behind her head. He pointed the gun at her back.
"Any last words?" Soul asked her grinning.
"GIRAFFE! No, wait can I chang-" he shot her in the back and she fell face first into the grass.
"Well, that was cool... time to go tell Maka I won-"
"Not so fast!" Dani had made her way from behind the tree and pointed her gun right between Soul's eyes.
"Wait? I thought you weren't playing. That's so uncool..."
"I changed my mind. Girls can do that." she smiled pressing the gun against his forehead.
"Come on Dani, we both know you're not going to pull-"
-POP-... -POP POP POP POP POP POP-
"That's for shooting my boyfriend."
