"How could you fail?"shrieked a female voice angrily, her face hidden in the dark. "You had her right in front of you yet you let her go?"she screamed in disbelief. Glass shattered somewhere against the wall and people winced. "I'm sorry Mi...Miss! I did not mean for that to happen. She c-caught me b-by surprise b-by kicking me w-where the s-sun d-doesn't s-s-shine."whimpered Min Jun pathetically, trembling in fear on his knees. "I-it w-was a-an a-accident."he added, cowering back as heels clicked on the cold stone floors. Every step this person took, their steps became louder and louder, filling the noiseless hall with the cold sound of dagger like heels. "An accident you say."the female asked, breathing in his ear. He nodded desperately, not daring to look up but at the red shoes of the person. "I hired you for one job! One job! And you screw it up like the wimpy kid you are!"she ranted, slapping the poor boy onto his side. "This is your last mistake or you're a dead man!"she seethed, kicking him in the ribs and he groaned in pain, clutching his side. The other two nodded and murmured "Yes ma'am."to which she laughed wickedly, sending chills down their spins.
"No matter. We still have one more opportunity. Min Jun. Your parents are going to start work tomorrow at my place. They will help with the assassination. Be warned, if you fail or they fail, it's the end, for the both of you."she warned in that cruel high voice before chuckling evilly once more. "Don't screw up."she warned once again before leaving the three of them shivering in the dark. "You'll be spending the night here as punishment."she added with a gleeful chuckle just before she exited the dark and wet dungeon. The door clicked and all was silent once again for the drip drop of water.
"So...the paintball gun tournament is coming up."started Adrian, whistling to act inconspicuous. "So?"asked Mikado, answering the maths questions at a rapid speed, leaving Adrian slightly intimidated. "w-well, have you decided on a team yet?"he asked her casually, trying to act normal but failing. "if i were to say yes?"and he fell off from his chair in shock and hurriedly clambered back on it as people stared at him. "What?"he hissed. "You already have a team"? Mikado lowered her head to hide the fact she was laughing at his pure jealousy. "No. I don't."she reassured after recovering from her mini laughing fit. "I just wanted to see your reaction."she added to the pouting Adrian.
"Well...us three are going to be a team and we need a fourth member."Noah said, leaving the end hanging, like an unanswered question. "Sure. I would love to join."and all three sighed in relief. "What? Jealous?"she teased making all three blush slightly, especially Bennett. Adrian couldn't help laugh at him, pointing his little finger like a little kid. Noah rolled his eyes as Bennett started to retaliate against Adrian and Mikado just watched with a smile, a sad smile as she watched how three the boys were.
'Can I trust them? Can they trust me? Can I let my walls down? Will they accept me for who I really am? Will I accept them if they let their walls down? What does the future entail apart from death, Nancy?'Mikado wondered as she envisioned herself being close friends with the three of them, having fun at the park or camping. "hey, Mikado. Let's go. You finished haven't you?"Noah called out to her, as he waited for her at the exit to the library.
"Coming!"she whispered yelled, hurriedly backing her bag with her stuff. Adrian ran back down the stairs. "Hurry up."he motioned and started pushing Noah upstairs. Mikado suddenly helped to and they appeared in front of Bennett with a weirdly angled Noah. "Come on. Let's go. Afterall, we need to prepare for the tournament!"declared Bennett with a smile and the others cheered in response, running alongside each other as they exited the building with bright smiles and loud laughs.

Author's note.
So, this is the first volume you could say or true first chapter. What do you think? It's like season one of a series. To be honest, I thought his story would just turn out to be something that is short and not very good. I'm amazed at the rankings for this and extremely pleased. I hope you have enjoyed reading the 1st season of this.
So, you know and I know the names of two of the assassins. There are four in total. So, who is behind them? What is their motive? Will Bennett, Noah and Adrian accept Mikado for who she really is? Will she accept them for who they really are? Will they let their walls down and trust each other? What will the future entail four our four protagonists? And who are the other two protagonists? Afterall, my story is called six-teen-s for a few reasons.
No.1 cool word play
No.2 there are 6 teenagers
No.3 the teenagers are 16
No.4 there are 6 main characters
No.5 I randomly thought of that.
So again, I hope you have enjoyed the 1st season. the 2nd season will come soon. Small warning, there will be a small time skip that goes to the end of November.
