"Let's fill the gun with ice cold water too" Sebastian says excitedly as he fills the huge water gun. 

"I've also found some water balloons that I'll hang around your body just in case" He says while giving me a strap to hang the water balloons on.

"You know Sebastian, I thought you cared about me and now you're gonna be the reason I die before ever owning a pet monkey" I say while staring into space.

"Stop being such a drama queen, it's only a silly little prank" He says like it's no big deal.

"I wanted to do so much in life like releasing baby turtles into the ocean or buy a pet pig and name it peppa-"

"You're a weird one aren't ya" Sebastian says as he takes my arm, dragging me away as i mumble the things i would have done if only i would've lived a bit longer.

"Ok now focus" He starts saying as he turns to me and lightly slaps my checks with his hands. 

"You only get one chance so use it well" He says as I nod.

"Yes sir" I say as I bring my hand up for a salute.

"Good. Now, tell me who you're targeting first?" He asks, sounding like a military captain. "I'm gonna start with my nicest brothers Noah and Enzo because it's more likely i'll be able to escape from them" I start as Sebastian nods.

"Then i'll go for the twins Julian and Hunter, they're likely playing video games right now and because they are together i'll be able to take down two at once" I continue.

"Then at last i'm going after the boss which is Zach, he's likely gonna catch and kill me the fastest and so i'll take him down last" I explain, tightening my grip around my deadly weapon. He takes out a thick black pen, drawing two lines under each eye on my face. 'How the heck did he find all of this?'.

"Good work soldier, just remember that your sacrifice will not be in vain" Sebastian says seriously as he stares into my eyes.

"Of Course sir, it's my job" I say.

"Hold your head up high soldier, now GO GO GO!!" He yells, pushing me aways as I stand up and run towards my first victim. I feel my heart beating as I run through the halls with my heavy gear on. I make my way towards the library where I'm sure Noah is studying or some shit.

I see him sitting peacefully in a bean bag with earphones on and a book in his hand. 'I'm already feeling bad at this point but you know what? war is never easy'. I push the trigger as I almost struggle to look at the scene before me.

"What the-" Noah says, jumping up as he feels the ice cold water shoot out right on his chest. 'Wow this thing has some real power'.

"Aria! what the hell are you-" He couldn't finish as i continued running through the halls, i have 4 more victims here i can't just sit around. I make my way towards the kitchen where Enzo's probably drinking his coffee this time a day. 'Oh and there my second brother sits with his coffee and phone'.

"Hi Princes, I was wondering if I could talk to- HEY!" He stands up, putting down his coffee mug with water now flowing in it and his phone all wet. 'Wait, why did I agree to do this again? oh right it was a dare'

"Come here and tell me right now why you-" And off to the next we go. 'Like i thought, Enzo and Noah are more focused on cleaning up right now and won't go after me right away' I smile at my right calculations as I only have 3 victims left.

I run towards Hunter's bedroom where they often play games and as i thought, they were right there playing some shooting game on the PS5.

'I'll need to be faster this time because there's no guarantee what they'll do after I shoot them. I scream like a warrior as I enter their room and fire away with the water aiming at their faces. 

"WHAT THE FUCK-"

"OH YOU'RE DEAD MEAT" They say turning towards me. Julian quickly tries to save his PS5 from the water as Hunter starts running like a maniac.

'Jeez he's scary'. I think fast and take one of the water balloons and smashing it at the ground making him slip and fall. I hear him groan as I take my chance and run for dear life towards my last victim. I run towards Zach's bedroom only to find him nowhere to be seen.

"Aria" I turned around to see my twin out of breath.

"He's in Xavier's office right now, I'll hold the others up" He says, making my eyes widened.

"But you'll.... die" I say feeling unable to move.

"It was an honor working with you soldier, now run" He starts.

"RUUUN" He yells as I tightened my grip on my gun. I run out towards my eldest brother's office. 

"Don't you dare die on me!" I scream as I run with my back against Sir Sebastian.

"OUT OF THE FUCKING WAY KID" i hear a very pissed up Julian yell.

"IF YOU WANNA GET TO ARIA THEN YOU'LL HAVE TO GET THROUGH ME FIRST" he yells dramatically. 'Okey this is getting ridiculous..'. I see the office as I run through the door and see Zach standing in front of me with his back facing me.

'Since when did Zach wear a suit?' I think as I spray him in the back of the head with my gun.

He's body stiffens slightly but surprisingly doesn't react as much as I thought he would. As he slowly turns around, I take my chance to pull up another water balloon and throw it at his chest. 

As the balloon hits him and pops, I immediately regret it as I notice that the person standing in front of me is, not Zach. There stands the one and only Xavier.

'I JUST THREW A WATER BALLON AT FUCKING XAVER AFTER SPRAYING HIM WITH MY WATER GUN!!' I hear a loud laugh in the room to see Zach standing behind Xavier. He quickly shuts up as Xavier gives him a chilling glare.

I flinch at the sound of all my brothers running through the door. Hunter grabs my collar as he brings my face closer to his and stares into my eyes with his cold ones.

"You're gonna regret doing that little girl" He threatens as i look over his shoulder to see poor Sebastian tied up, trying to crawl like an insect on the floor.

"Don't worry sis i'll save you" I hear his voice in the hall making me let out a snort. Hunter tightens his grip around my collar as he narrows his eyes.

"You think this is funny? you almost destroyed my fucking PS5" He says as i immediately regret laughing.

"Let her go Hunter" Enzo says, stepping forward.

"Besides, your PS5 wasn't the only thing that almost got destroyed" He says, giving me a glare. 'Just great Aria, now you've turned your nice supporting brother against you. "Oh and don't forget about-" Noah says before getting interrupted by Xavier.

"Everybody out" He says coldy making everybody silent.

"Oh no you didn't" Noah starts, noticing Xavier's wet hair and suit. "How supid are you to do that to him?" Julian says.

"This is not gonna end well" Enzo says, not sounding too concerned.

"You really have a death wish kid" Hunter says smirking. "I said. Out" Xavier repeats again with even more chilliness in his voice.

"Don't worry shorty i'll arrange a nice funeral for you" Zach says before closing the door leaving me alone with my eldest brother Xavier.

'Stupid brothers trying to scare me' I think as I feel absolutely terrified. He stands only about 5 meters away from me, staring. I try looking anywhere but him but feel the hard glaze boring into my poor soul.

'Why isn't he saying anything? How long is he just gonna stand there? what should i-' my thought gets interrupted but the sound of his slow footsteps coming towards me.

'Okey now i prefer him standing quietly away from me again'
