Hello and welcome to Chapter 4. I hope you that you will like it. This chapter and 4.5 introduces a more comedic approach, but is well worth the read.

…There really isn't all that much to talk about since I talked about most of the important things in the last chapter.

So does anyone know how many of you that Gainen found? If so then please tell me. ^_^

SO ENJOY AND REVIEW OR GAINEN WILL GET YOU!

Chapter 4

Annoying Habits

Inquesta Building – Office #43 (Riko's Commandeered Room)

Tuesday September 8th 16:29

"So then why do you want me to find out everything about the new student?" I could tell Riko was purposefully teasing me. "Exactly what do you want to know about Tatsu?" I never realized before just how annoying a person could be. "Do you like him Reki?" Riko began to laugh and I wanted nothing more than to jump at her. Or at least set Haimaki after her but then I remembered that no matter what I needed this information. Besides the last time Haimaki spent a day with Riko did not go too well for him.

"Get me the information and I'll get you what you want." I hated Riko's idea of payment because if anyone saw me getting it for her I would feel like I could die.

"Oh but now Riko wants to know how the "robot" of the snipe division has developed feelings for someone." Her laughing stopped abruptly as I pulled out my new rifle and aimed it right between her eyes. She swallowed loudly, "I'll ge… get you your in… information."

As I pulled the rifle away from her face, she seemed to notice for the first time that the rifle wasn't my dragunov. "Where did you get the new rifle? Did something happen to your dragunov?"

I didn't see any harm in it so I pulled out the bag of bullets and laid it on the table along with the rifle. "They were in the package that had appeared in my dorm." I didn't pull out the necklace because I felt that I should probably keep it a secret.

"What about your dragunov?"

When she asked this I just stopped. I hadn't really given my old dragunov much thought.

This new rifle just seemed right in my hands… it felt like it was a piece of me. Ever since I had opened the package, my dragunov hadn't moved. It was still leaning up against the wall in my dorm. I attempted to stick to being mostly quiet, "I still have it…"

Riko then proceeded to stand up to her full unimpressive height, "Well then Riko will get you your intel and Reki shall go and get Riko her new game!" She then proceeded to spin herself out of the room saying some incomprehensible babble.

I decided to visit Riko's usual customer to see if he could save me from a visit to that idiotic store…

Boys Dormitory: Kinji's Room

18:56

"No I am never going back to that store ever again. And besides, do you have any idea of how many peach buns I've had to buy since Aria came back from the training hall screaming? Oh yeah, how did the fight go? All Aria could do is mumble about thunder…"

I contemplated what I had told the teachers about Vlad's violent demise. They had obviously been relieved that Vlad was dead again. But they hadn't questioned about the ease at which Tatsu had killed Vlad. "He was granted Rank-S…"

"Do you mean that Tatsu was able to kill Vlad?"

"Yes…" He started to look at me weirdly and by this point I wanted nothing more than to leave.

"Tell you what, if you tell me exactly what happened at the exam, then I'll get you Riko's payment."

He had me backed into a corner. I couldn't tell him how I had been noticed so easily during the exam and I definitely didn't want to get Riko's damn game. I guess

I could do what I had done to the teachers and leave out some of the details. "He used a scythe and cut Vlad into pieces…" Okay so I went with the extremely shortened version, so sue me.

He sighed loudly, "… well I suppose that will be the most I'm gonna get from you. Since I know how much you hate to speak. So I'll get you Riko's cursed payment for you but next time you've got to tell me everything that happened at the exam. Alright?"

I nodded and left quickly asking him to deliver it to my room once he gets it.

Well this one was pretty quick… I wanna ask you all if you think my chapters are too short because you still aren't reviewing my story… Anyway I've written chapter 5 and I will type it soon but first I get to type chapter 4.5.

Review Please… :_(
