Chapter 4 - The Glitch Assassin

As Ike thought this his curiosity kept growing and growing, would random victims still give him xp or did it give him nothing?....He decided to find out tonight, putting his black hoodie back on he headed out of his room and into the hallway he was scanning for his first victim he stopped at the door with 6799 engraved on it.

'Perfect' he thought but then he noticed he had no way to get in, the only way to get in is if he used his Network. Closing his eyes he concentrated on nothing but his hands, he could feel his power combining together slowly making a dagger the item he wanted, using the tip of the dagger he pried open the door and crept inside. Once he was close enough Ike slowly lifted his hands with the dagger tightening his grip while bringing it to his victims throat. He lowed the dagger right onto his neck....and brought it down with all his force, killing him instantly.

"I'm going to have fun with this" and with another menacing smile Ike left the room for the next victim. Again walking through the halls he searched each door he past, it wasn't long before he found the next victim.

This one was probably going to take a few hits before he was fully taken care of but his stats looked promising for some good xp. And with a good job from his dagger he was inside in no time praying on his oblivious victim. Again Ike lifted his hands up and over bringing it just over the victims neck and with a swift move he did it again.

He did this a total of 4 times before he was satisfied. Each time he killed them slower and slower...he was no longer doing it for the xp...he was doing it for fun. Ike headed back to his room, fell into his bed and went to sleep instantly.

[ Total xp 1652/2000 ]

The next morning when Ike woke up he got a notification from his new Network.

A dot showed up in Ike vision telling him the directions for him to follow so he could reach the cafeteria. As Ike was walking through the hallway he past one of his victims rooms from last night, he saw Tatum the one person that had talked to him since he go here if you don't count Cristian. He walked of to Tatum and acted as if he was oblivious to the whole situation.

"What happened?" Ike said with a frightened look on his face.

Tatum turned around to see Ike.

"A student was killed in there room during the night but no one knows who did it."

"How did they find him?" Ike said

"Apparently a friend noticed he wasn't coming out of his room and decided to come check up on him. When he saw his friend like this he yelled out for help, that's when all these people came out to see what happened."

Right after Tatum had finished his sentence more students started to pile up making it impossible to escape the crowd. They crouched down going under people eventually escaping the huge mass of students piled at the door. Tatum and Ike walked over to the stairs so they could chat without being buried by the others.

With a concerned face Ike asked Tatum "Has anyone gotten any of the guards to come and check it it out?"

"Some one did but the guards didn't believe them or they just didn't care"

"But why, don't they need us for there amusement" Ike replied with air quotes surrounding the word amusement.

"Like I said they either don't believe them or don't care, they might not care since the guy died in his sleep meaning he was weak and he wouldn't fulfill there amusement" Tatum answered

"Breakfast is almost over, you wanna go get something to eat before it ends?" Tatum asked Ike

"Sure" Ike replied

Then they both stood up walking off the stairs and to the cafeteria.

"By the way I didn't catch your name back there"

"It's Ike Torres" he answered

The two of them arrived at breakfast just in time to eat something to at least satisfy them.
