Hey everyone. I've finished my exams and while I was studying I couldn't help but come back to this Fanfic and thought that it's been too long since I gave it attention. So I started reading and well-Here's the next chapter because I wanted to know what was going to happen next. I hope you enjoy this.

Also if you're reading Through the Spy Glass, that has also been updated!

Having entered the E-class, Aria found herself in the utmost oddest of circumstances. She hadn't imagined that her attempts to remove herself from the world of assassination by escaping from the very institution she had been living in for years, only to find herself enrolled in yet another practicing assassination but with the oddest twist where the one giving the teachings on assassination was also the target. It was one of the closest things Aria could place as comedic. The student's weren't that much different either, the regular gathering of the E-class expectant; that were being assigned as assassins.

It all so far from what Aria believed a junior-high school was meant to be like.

What was also fascinating was the fact that this class also had an assassin teaching them; Irina. Her appearance had been what led Aria to come to the E-class satellite campus in the first place but it had proven to be an error in judgment just as quickly. The arrangement of what was meant to be her ordinary life had taken an unexpected, unwanted and peculiar turn.

"Wow, sexy guy, it's a miracle-what really?"

Irina was teaching the class English ' everyday chit chat' as she put it but everyone proved to have issues with their L's and R's because of their inherited Japanese manner of speaking. Even Aria had admittedly struggled with these but it wasn't often considered a problem to have an accent, although there were speech classes that had to be taken for the five languages every Phoenix agent chose but that did not mean the accent would completely be erased and it was often difficult to maintain.

Everyone was trying their best though because Irina had threatened to French kiss them in front of everyone.

Aria leaned forward on her hand, listening half-attentively to the lesson. Glancing outside of the window passed the trees towards the forest where she had to outrun Karasuma; then back into the classroom over everyone's heads. These were regular students during lesson times but as soon as break came, the main topic of discussion was 'How to kill Korosensei'. The plotting on many different types of inventive methods and sometimes playing them out once their teacher was in sight. The main factor was how to either immobilize or distract their teacher on account of his inhumane speed. Their motive for killing; to literally save the world and the other reasons well there were 10 billion of them.

Yet that was also surreal to Aria. When she thought that the fate of the world had literally been placed in the hands of a group of teenagers who were struggling with their existence in a private school with a policy that discriminated against those that were not as academically inclined as the rest.

'This entire place….' Aria clutched her pen tightly in her hands.

"Don't run from your incapability's….master them!" Irina told her class.

"Could you please tell me how to get to my destination?"

"Cood y-you please tell me how to get to my destonation-ya!"

Nagisa yelped when Aria grabbed his face and started stretching his cheeks; he felt the light breeze blowing on the inside of his mouth, making it dry. He continued to pull against Aria's hold but she refused to let him go.

"Say it again," Aria repeated for the fifth time

In a bit of a muffle voiced Nagisa spoke: "Could….could you please tell me how to get to my destination?"

Aria grinned and removed her hands from Nagisa's face watching as he rubbed his sore cheeks "There's no point in understanding English if you can't get the pronunciation right. For instance, people tend to assume right with-

"It's difficult when you roll your tongue so differently pronouncing a word." Nagisa defended, still rubbing his cheeks. Nagisa and Aria were sitting outside together

"You said you wanted some help with your English. Practicing like this is the only way." Aria stated, "You heard Irina-sensei talk about your L's and R's; Like, really, light, right, wrong, collect, locket. You try."

Nagisa just stared at the sooty haired girl with wide eyes, "No thank you."

"Come on Nagisa; it's difficult not impossible."

Nagisa and Aria had taken to the staircase leading up the building from the back in front of the huge field that had been redefined as a sports field, it had running lanes and a soccer field with the nets set out neatly for the games. That was one of the advantages of having a classroom out in the mountains. Although from what Nagisa told her; it was Koro-Sensei who had cleaned the weeds in the area and repainted the field.

They were working on their speech, or rather Aria was helping Nagisa since she didn't have any problem with 'every day chit chat' speech, though he was great with the language itself, speaking it came as a challenge as it did to most Japanese students.

"How can you speak English so well?" asked Nagisa

Twirling a short strange of her hair Aria began explaining, hardly missing a beat despite the topic. "My father was a foreigner who moved here for work. English was his first language so I picked it up from him."

Nagisa's eyes seemed to spark with interest, he knew nearly nothing about her family because she never mentioned them and he felt it wasn't a subject you push in case but if she was willing to share he wasn't going to turn deaf. She lived alone so he was assuming the situation was 'complicated' he just didn't know the details and that meant he couldn't address them either.

"Alright next sentence…I would really appreciate your assistance. Of course, right away. "

"I would lreally appreciate your-ow-ow-ow-ow, Aria!" Nagisa cried out as the girl started pulling on his cheeks again, but she didn't hold onto them too long before letting go.

"Stick your tongue out from your mouth a little when you want to pronounce L and then bring it in and keep it in the middle of your mouth, a bit uplifted so it will rattle when you pronounce R."

Karma then came over to the two; holding a small pink drinking box with a strawberry on it he strolled over to them, his one hand in his pocket. "What are you two doing? I thought I saw Glass-eyes pinching you." Karma addressed Nagisa.

"Karma, that's kinda rude-

"I'm helping Nagisa with his English, Tomato," Aria replied with a smile; she noticed Karma's brow twitch slightly with annoyance at the nickname she had chosen for him.

"Oh that L and R stuff, Bitch-sensei was talking about today."

"What about you Karma? I know that you're good in English too." Nagisa said as he continued to rub his cheeks that were tinted slightly red.

"Mmm, that kinda things not a weakness for me. I'm already really good." Karma replied his last bit in English for emphasis. To which Aria responded.

"That's true but everyone has a weakness when it comes to speech and communication."

"Not me," Karma replied to Aria in English, not wanting to be outdone by her in this matter. He was after all one of the best students in the E-class and while he was appearing to be lax; what always bothered him more than anything was losing or being outdone; especially by those who succeeded in catching his attention.

"Yours could be your mannerism with which you speak. To me, you sound sadistic which in my experience often repulses or scares people. It makes you unappealing."

Right now, Nagisa wished he wasn't this good at English to be able to comprehend what Aria had just said. He slapped a hand over his mouth; he had already understood that Aria was blunt and dangerously genuine when voicing her opinions but he thought she would be able to understand that there were certain limits, especially when it came to Karma. Karma might not give the impression at first because of the way he usually behaved, but he actually had a very short temper and never bothered to suppress it, instead, he took it out on whatever had set that fuse alight. Right now Aria was unknowingly holding the match.

Karma smirked, but his eyes had changed to hold a sharper look in them, one of warning. "And you're so stupidly naïve to think that you can just keep bluntly saying whatever you want without consequence."

"I do consider consequence, but I have yet to meet someone who is worth the consideration of delivering it. I think it would be a waste of time to let words of consequence from people who can't deliver deter me." As her conversation pressed on with Karma Aria was beginning to get an unappealing discomfort in her. It was starting to feel similar to when she spoke with Gakushu. It was the kind of feeling she got that caused her to make small slips such as, "Just like you."

Nagisa covered his face with his hands, 'Oh my god!'

Another thing Karma did not like was to be underestimated or underrated, it was similar to arrogance in this sense but it was the source of his pride, his ego and when people tried to pry at it; to crack his sense of self-he cracked their skulls.

"Aria, please stop talking."

"But why?" she asked curiously.

A vein appeared on the side of Karma's forehead, "Oh? So basically I'm not worth the consideration as a consequence?"

"Well yes, that's my opinion."

"Are you trying to test me?" Karma asked, hinting with a dangerous undertone.

"Not in particular but it seems that's your assumption."

Then the signal for break ended; much to Nagisa's relief. He mouthed a small 'thank you' to the sky before moving in.

"Okay, let's get back to the classroom!" Nagisa chided with a wry smile; he held out his hands in between Aria and Karma as if it was going to be a strong enough barrier between the two.

Aria was the first to make a move to stand, she casually dusted off the back of her skirt and picked up the plastic bags that were the leftovers of her store-bought lunch. She looked over at Nagisa and smiled.

"Come on then, let's go."

"I'll be there in a second." He said signaling for the girl to go in without him.

Nagisa stood up, he glanced at Karma and nearly jumped back when he saw the wide grin on Karma's face. It was the kind of grin he got right before he was about to start a fight with someone and then there was the wild glint in his eyes that was similar to an animal about to pounce on their prey. It was amazing how a few short-yet completely genuinely truthful statements from Aria had made Karma like this.

"Karma?"

His smirk widened, "This is going to be fun."

The following day during physical education; Aria soon realized that this place was not only allowing assassination but acting as a beacon for other assassins because of Korosensei's presence. Karasuma had come to the class with a disturbed expression and it stayed like this all the way during the lesson.

Aria looked at the two poles she had to stand on, above them was stand with balls painted like Korosensei's face attached to a string. They had to practice their balance and knife skills like this.

The knife in Aria's hand was green and rubber; harmful to only her one teacher. "Are you alright getting up?" Karasuma asked.

Aria nodded, placing the side of the knife in her mouth before jumping up and balancing herself onto the platforms, the Korosensei ball in front of her.

"Hey Aria, aren't you getting hot in the undershirt?" asked Hinano Kurahashi. She was a petite girl with short wavy orange hair and fading green eyes with a bright expression. She was standing on the poles right next to Aria.

"Not really," Aria replied. She always wore a long-sleeve outside-she needed to.

Aria mimicked everyone, taking stabs at the ball. The exercise may have seemed easy to the eye but it required balance and precision and you had to be unafraid of the ball to bounce back at you and knock you off the poles.

'This is assassins training huh?' Aria thought, feeling slightly bemused while she continued to jab her knife forward. The rubber was soft and wouldn't cut anything aside from their teacher if anyone was able to get a hold of him.

Karasuma watched Aria carefully since this was her first time training but she already had a good sense of balance compared to how the other students were when they first began this training; then again he assumed she had some sort of gymnastic background like Hinata Okano; she also adapted easier to these sort of exercises. However, her speed, adaptability, and parkour-that didn't look like ordinary gymnastic training to him.

Aria was continuously thrusting her knife forward and hitting the ball in front of her, without a sign of resistance or struggle. Then an urging to turn her head came about and she stopped, looking to her left near the forest. There she saw Irina, Korosensei dressed as a ninja and another man. He had short black hair and sharp brown eyes giving way to an intimidating appearance. Creased lines in his skin showing his age. He was dressed in a black suit and long grey trench coat.

She wasn't the only one who noticed though because Kurahashi called on Karasuma, "Karasuma-sensei, over there."

"Just ignore them. Continue the exercise."

PE was a bit difficult when everyone was staring back at their strange spectators and after class Karasuma sat everyone down on the field to explain to them the reason for the onlookers; that there was going to be another assassination of sorts taking place.

His own.

Yesterday after school while the teachers were all still there; they had a visitor appear; this was a man known as Lovro. Aria knew the name well enough of this person; he was yet another assassin of Phoenix Academy to idolize. Although he was retired now, he had a reputation for being one of the most talented assassins of his time. Now he made a fortune training youngsters to become assassins and getting them hired. Of course, this was similar to what Phoenix did, but the difference was that Lovro was considered more of a freelancer. He had apparently shown up to bring Irina back as it didn't seem that she would be succeeding in killing KorosenseI. So she was being withdrawn but Irina was refusing to leave, so Korosensei had chided in a solution for a sham assassination on Karasuma; one of them would have to 'kill' him and whoever succeeded would get their way as the prize.

Of course, it was obvious that Karasuma didn't have much say in the matter as he was muttering about the 'stupid octopus' making his own decisions just for a laugh.

"Anyway, that's the case. So expect some disruptions today, though your classes should remain unaffected." Karasuma explained to the group.

Aria sat like the rest of the classroom with her knees tucked up to her chest, if not a bit more uncomfortable with the position. Her placement of normality was feeling more disrupted by the simplicity of this sham assassination.

In short, it irritated her.

"It doesn't seem like we're going to be having regular classes today." Aria leaned her hand on her knee.

"Mmm," Nagisa nodded in agreement, "Karasuma-sensei can't catch a break."

Without replying, Aria turned to her right to look down the field where she saw Irina coming down to them with an open pink flask in her hand.

"Karasuma!

She cheerfully called Karasuma as she came closer. Praising him and then offering a drink. Everyone just stared at Irina with deadpan expressions of disbelief to think that she would try a seduction tactic like that. It was flawed for numerous reasons.

"Go on! Knock it back. It's delicious." Irina said, holding the cup out to Karasuma. All the students were whispering what Karasuma was thinking there was something in that drink that was not conventional.

"It's probably going to knock him out too," Aria whispered to Nagisa, who nodded in response.

Karasuma spoke to the class, with a wry expression. "Probably a muscle relaxant so she can immobilize and stab me."

The change of Irina's expression was enough to give her away; had she been seen like this now Aria was certain that all of her admirers from Phoenix would reel back on their idolization for the women. She was legendary for pulling off the greatest assassinations by means of seductions rather than brute force.

'Although once you're no longer a stranger, that air of seduction is quickly deduced to useless.'

Probably realizing that her plans weren't going to work, Irina attempted to switch tactics but it was in short, pathetic in comparison to her last when she faked falling and injuring herself to get Karasuma closer to her. He just walked away instead.

"This is kinda…painful to watch." Nagisa trailed as he stood up with Aria to leave since their P.E teacher didn't seem to be in the mood for anything today.

"When a target is fully aware like this they're going to be on guard. And she's not being very discrete." Aria said; crossing her arms she made a move to turn only to stop abruptly and turn sharply towards the forest area around the sports field. There was without a doubt someone watching in the distance. Her eyes widened, the blurred vision in the distance cleared and she saw Lovro standing there. He was watching the scene from the shadows, observing his student. Aria turned away, walking back with Nagisa.

"Is something wrong?"

"No."

Lovro had observed Irina's attempts to get Karasuma, partly he felt he couldn't blame his former student for her attempt as this was the type of assassination she initially used to but she should know that under the circumstances where the target is aware of the assassination that it wasn't possible for her to seduce them. Especially someone like Karasuma who came off as a lot more-rigid; than the targets Irina was used to.

While Irina was talking with two students, the rest went to take their leave to the classroom. Watching from the distance, Lovro noticed one of the students stop; a girl she turned her head over to where he stood and he instinctively moved closer behind the tree. As soon as she had looked over though she turned away to join the rest of her classmates.

'She couldn't have seen me could she?'

The rest of the classes had gone by without much disturbance aside from the usual class and assassination attempts; although there was a rule about assassination attempts during class. Korosensei didn't want the students disrupting the class with assassination attempts and were meant to focus on their studies only, during this period. It didn't make much sense to Arai to wait though when the assassination literally had the entire world at stake.

That was what Aria thought about whistle she sat in the classroom eating her lunch and paging through a book of which it's content she had failed to see the meaning to when she was still lost in her thoughts; ignorant of the chatters around her from the other students.

Glancing at Aria by the desk-glance at Karma by the window and so on; that had been Nagisa's pattern for the last three minutes as he watched his two friends. Yesterday's short encounter between Karma and Aria made him admittedly dry-throated and nervous. Nagisa had been one of Karma's few friends while they were at the main campus and he knew the kind of person Karma was. His nature, what he liked and disliked and his tells-that included a certain look he had on his face after Aria walked away.

'Korosensei might not be his only assassination target now.'

Aria, of course, being as she was, seemed completely oblivious to the kind of target she had just set on herself. She had unknowingly challenged Karma.

"Karma…" Nagisa tapped his friend's shoulder to get his attention. Karma turned around to acknowledge him with a quick 'sup'.

"Um Karma, what happened with you and Aria yesterday; are you okay?"

Karma suddenly grinned, closing his eyes in a seemingly innocent manner with a light tone he replied, "Of course Nagisa! That was just a little banter, nothing to think twice about."

Nagisa's shoulders sagged and it was not on account of relief. "Yup, you're up to something."

"Of course not."

"Karma, I know that Aria might seem kinda blunt but that's just the way she is. I don't think you should take it personally."

Karma just continued to smile, patting Nagisa's shoulder with a little force but not enough to hurt. "I told you Nagisa, it was just a little scuffle. It's not like I'm going to try and do something savage to her. In fact, I'd like to know more about her. What's her favorite food; activities…worst nightmares."

Nagisa gulped; he could somehow depict Karma seeping a dark aura around him and he knew that there was no sense in trying to talk Karma out of whatever his intentions were. He was conflicted because this time Karma was going to aim his guns at Aria and she was completely unaware of it.

"Karma, I'm telling you Aria just-

Karma turned his head away to look out of the window and pointed to Karasuma who was sitting under a tree, eating his lunch. He seemed in complete contrast with the natural scenery in a full white shirt-black tie suit meant for something in the commerce faculty. Yet there he was sitting under a tree eating his lunch.

"Hey look at that," Karma said noticing someone else coming into his line of vision who contrasted with the outdoor scenery. "Looks like Bitch-sensei is at it again."

Everyone moved to the window and temporarily, Nagisa decided to leave the topic of Aria for another time. Aria had left her seat as well to take a look at what was happening on the other side of the window; she piled through with everyone else, allowed to move to the front since she wasn't one of the tallest students in her class. A little above Nagisa's height.

Irina was approaching Karasuma with one of the green rubber knives meant for Koro-sensei as they were harmless to humans but perfectly effective against the teacher. On the other hand, Aria heard that while those were effective against him; weapons that were harmful to humans he was immune to. It was an interesting twist.

"What's she thinking?"

"She knows that she can't catch Karasuma off guard like that right?"

There were murmurs of the same context going around the classroom as they observed the spectacle. It didn't' look like Irina was making an effort to hide her attempt to attack Karasuma. The class grew a little rowdier when they could see Irina taking off her white blazer and dropping it down at Karasuma's feet.

"Is she trying to seduce him again?" asked Sugino.

"There's no way this is going to work," Maehara stated confidently.

Aria kept her arms crossed, watching the scene unfold. Irina couldn't have been that conspicuous right? She was a professional for a reason. No matter how good she was with seduction assassination or if that was all she had learned while under training; she would have developed her own sense of understanding when a plan would go array. With her knife held high, Irina didn't go straight to attack Karasuma, instead, she moved around the tree and stopped; her lips moving but no one could hear what she said.

Then it all happened instantly.

Irina pushed on her heel, holding tightly onto a nearly unseen piece of string that was attached to her coat; when she pulled it one of her coats arms hooked onto Karasuma's leg and as he wasn't expecting it; had ended up falling on his back and that's when Irina literally took the chance to pounce on top of him.

Everyone cheered as they realized Irina's plan to catch Karasuma off guard and have succeeded. The anticipation grew as Irina raised her knife into the air then thrust it toward Karasuma. However, recovering from a fraction of his shock Karasuma grabbed hold of Irina's hands to stop the knife from hitting him as that was all it took for the assassination to have been a success. However, after some more struggling Karasuma's hold went lax and he visibly sighed before releasing Irina's hands and letting her 'stab' him in his chest.

That was enough to hype the students watching who had become filled with pride for whatever reason towards their teacher. Some were even clapping and cheering on.

Aria looked away from the window and moved back to her desk, turning to the next page of her book.

'A sham assassination?' her fingers curled against the paper, nearly to the point where it would rip.

It was a simple mission; one target with minimal status, barely reaching the criteria for the job. No need for espionage nor further digging; all information provided as well as location it was like following the directions on a manuscript. In fact, it was so simple that only two agents were sent; both unsullied-both fledglings. Both familiar with one another by now. And both had the issue of needing to graduate. Therefore the academy had come to a decision to allow the two to go out under 'supervision' without interference or assistance, merely spectating. The two agents had successfully tracked their target and had cornered him. Now it was the matter of who was going to gain their final credentials to pass.

"COME ON 62-DO IT"

The voice that screamed at her; that should've echoed through her whole body was just a compressed thud in comparison to her own heartbeat that she could hear booming in her hears and vibrating through her whole body. Her breaths were coming out in short pants, yet it didn't feel like she was breathing at all. She stared at the figure in front of her; a man's body leaning against the wall; his leg bleeding from the small bullet that she implanted in him.

Her target was so close; she knew it. Just one bullet at the distance they were and it would be over instantly and then she would reach her goal. It seemed so simple when it was explained to her and yet she couldn't do it.

She heard the voice of her partner, still shouting at her yet it was in a cheering manner as he encouraged her; telling her to hurry along and do what needed to be done. Do what she was assigned to do.

While she could see nothing but the absolute terror on the man's' face; she could feel nothing but her own fear running through her body like a flowing river. Her hands felt numb and heavy as she held the gun up, her finger on the trigger; which she had pulled so easily before now suddenly felt like it had locked itself preventing her from firing again. Her right foot extended back slightly, on the tip of her sole, slightly curved; if only she could gather the strength for further motions.

She could feel her hands growing wet with perspiration, along with her face even though the weather was cold that night.

"GO ON 62-THIS IS WHAT YOU ARE MADE FOR. PULL THE TRIGGER!"

She continued to stare at the man trembling before her; she felt her throat go dry as she applied more pressure she didn't think was possible to the handle and her foot curved further-but then she saw the man's eyes in front of her flash. Going from the frightened deer in the headlights to merciless as he reached into his pocket and flung out a gun. She shut her eyes.

The trigger sounded.

She didn't feel anything; there was no pain from the bullet tearing through her skin, flesh, and tendons, there was no loss of warmth, no metallic taste that was meant to come after being shot. Just the sound of footsteps in the silence and the clashing of clouds from the sky signaling for rain.

"Open your eyes 62."

Doing as ordered, she opened her eyes to the sight of a lax body in front of her, the target laying with his head tilted in an uncomfortable angle, his eyes wide open but blank from their loss of life, the blood drilling down his forehead from where the bullet was lodged, running down and dripping from his chin as tears would. From behind him, a visible splash of red. When she felt again, she realized that some of that had gotten on her face as well. Small splatters, yet she couldn't bring her body to move.

"Take a good look 62," her instructor stated. "This is what happens to those fools who waver, linger and are just a second too late." A firm hand fell on her shoulder and the voice grew softer so that only she would hear. "There is no point in having the knowledge to use the tools you've been given if one does not have the will to use them."

She didn't move still; she didn't say anything. Simply staring at the dead body in front of her.

"You won't be able to reach him at this rate."

A third voice entered then; the agent's superior that had been assigned to observe them and evaluate.

"Good job 68-it looks like you're ready."

A light snicker trickled into her ears as she felt a slight pressure on the side of her cheek, a warmth pressing to it before it was gone along with the hand on her shoulder.

"Better luck next time baby doll."

A bitter taste filled Aria's mouth and she quickly swallowed it down, tasting the jelly donut she had and suddenly disliking it.

That day on, Aria didn't dwell much on the goals of the E-class to assassinate their teacher. The rest of her time was filled with reading the material, doing her work accordingly and so on. Hardly blinking at the mention of the assassination by the other students who could continue about their day as if it was a regular topic-which in a way it was just as it wasn't.

Aria soon came to realize what was worth noting in the classroom and what wasn't. So far there hadn't been anything 'out of the ordinary' and she found herself able to cope quite alright with her work. In fact, she found that Korosensei was very efficient in these terms for a teacher who was literally the target of assassination for his whole class.

One day at the end of class, Nagisa and Karma came up to her desk right after she pulled her book bag around her shoulder and slipped her chair back into her desk.

"Hey Aria, we're going to go ask Korosensei to take us with him to Hawaii, do you want to come?"

Aria paused, "Going to Hawaii, why?"

"Sonic Ninja is premiering there tonight; we heard Koro-sensei talking about it. Are you deaf as well as blind Glass-eyes?" Karma asked sarcastically.

"You know I'm not deaf or blind Tomato," Aria stated. "I do want to go and see the movie though."

Nagisa's impatience overran his worry about Aria and Karma's issues in the company. Least in the movies, there wouldn't be a lot of talking. "Yeah, so what do you say? We've gotta catch up to Korosensei before he takes off."

Aria took out her cell phone and sent a quick message to Isogai, telling him to inform their manager that she wasn't going to be coming in for work today and that she would make it up with a double shift over the weekend. He responded quickly enough and told her 'no problem'; she then put her phone away.

"Okay, let's go."

Korosensei was standing outside, stretching his tentacles when Nagisa, Aria, and Karma came up to him. Nagisa was holding up a magazine with the advertisement for Sonic Ninja.

"Korosensei, please take us with you."

"Oh, you kids like that franchise too?" Koro-sensei asked, sounding surprised.

Nagisa smiled, "Yeah, we've been waiting for the sequel."

Korosensei looked at Karma, "I didn't expect you to be into superhero movies Karma."

Grabbing a stand of his hair, Karma tugged on it lightly explaining that he liked the director; who actually hardly dealt with comic material. Aria then figured out that the friend Nagisa once referred to who liked Sonic Ninja as well as Karma.

"And you're also a fan Aria?"

She nodded, smiling up at her teacher, "I really enjoyed watching the first movie and reading the comics."

"I'd like to come too!" Another voice chimed in, coming from Nagisa's cell in his pocket. Nagisa pulled out his phone and looked at the screen, Ritsu appeared holding up a sign pardoning her intrusion on the boy's device.

"Ritsu, why are you on my phone?"

Ritsu explained that she downloaded her data onto everyone's phone as a means to facilitate information sharing amongst the students. As for coming along to the movies; she really wanted to experience the speed of Mach 20 and perhaps find out some weaknesses of Koro-sensei's during this time.

"Alright then, it'll be a bit of a tight fit but I'm sure you'll all be fine as I give you a taste of my speed!"

The three students barely felt themselves move before they were tightly confined in Koro-sensei's large gown, Nagisa on the right, Karma on the left and Aria in the middle little ways in front of them. The feeling was similar to that of standing in line for a roller coaster, you were excited until you actually reach the front and go in, realize what you're about to do but can't turn back because you are already strapped in your seats with no means of escape.

Nagisa gulped, "Guys, I asked on a whim but now that we're actually doing this…."

"Neither one of you considered the safety of traveling at Mach 20 did you?" Aria asked bluntly, feeling her stomach churn.

"Apparently neither did you." Karma pointed out, grinning still although is throat was a little dry all of a sudden. Ritsu was fine as her main body was still in the classroom and only her data on their phones but the rest of them were made of flesh and bones-which were actually not as durable.

"Don't' worry," Korosensei reassured the group of four. "I'll accelerate gently so no one gets hurt."

With that Korosensei took off, a huge gust of wind blowing from the impact when he ascended into the air. The wild rush made the student's stomachs churn in an uncomfortable delight and then settled once Korosensei started moving forward through the air now.

Everyone looked down at the view of the urban area, the buildings and residents then very soon leading out into the ocean that was far more vast, spotting a few ships in the deep blue.

"So fast!" Nagisa gasped.

Karma laughed, "I can see the Pacific ocean!"

Aria stared silently in wonder the sight, she hadn't gotten an aerial view like this before and she was certain no one else had either. As Korosensei continued to speed across the water, they were barely able to catch sight of a few boats or marine life that might have been coming out for the surface because of the speed they were going at, no one really cared though for the experience was worth the glimpses.

After some time, the sun began to set, Nagisa noted that there wasn't a lot of wind or sound because Korosensei's head had been deflecting most of it. Korosensei went to explain that it was his skin that hardened under pressure to endure Mach wind pressure. After that, the rest of their journey went on with a science lecture on a similar material in everyday lives that was like Koro-sensei's skin. He had even brought materials for the demonstration; that included a beaker, water, and cornstarch.

Ritsu then whispered to them, "Why don't you assassinate him now? I think this is the best chance."

"That's crazy talk Ritsu." Karma deadpanned replied. "We'd all plop in the ocean."

"Unless you were counting on a suicide assassination," Aria commented.

"We're not." Nagisa clarified.

The time had gone by quickly then, Korosensei was just reaching the end of his lecture before the island of Hawaii came into view. The sky had darkened completely and all the lights had turned on illuminating everything with a breathtaking view. Korosensei landed on the roof of the movie theatre. Before they went down, he had changed his skin color to appear human and put on a fake nose and black wig.

Aria took the time they had to admire the view overlooking the docks leading down to the beach where several boats were parked.

"This is the first time I've been to Hawaii."

"Too bad we can't take a tour," Karma said.

"Not if you want to make it for the movie, now come along students."

Aria couldn't help but stare in awe at the size of the theatre; she had forgotten what it looked like having gone so little times that she could count on one hand how many but her memories of that time were blurred like most of her childhood. There was a large screen pasted in front of the cold room, surrounded by dozens of rows of seats. Her head continued to dart around from one point to another.

"What's going on with you?" Karma asked as they took their seats. Aria was sitting in between Nagisa and Karma while Korosensei was on the right side of Nagisa. "Never been in a theatre before?"

"I haven't been to one in years," Aria replied before taking one of the pink blankets offered by Korosensei who had given each of them one to huddle up with. Even Ritsu had changed her own schematics to put on a coat and gloves.

"This is exciting, it's my first time in a theatre."

"But this is an America screening, they won't have Japanese subtitles," Nagis said

"Don't worry, the three of you have good English grades and Irina-sensei has been working hard with you." Korosensei then extended three small tenticles with a round bud, telling them to put it in their ear and he would explain to them any unusual words that would crop up. After that, he gave them each their own popcorn and soda to enjoy the movie.

There wasn't much disturbance during the movie, everyone's eyes were fixated on the screen for nearly two full hours; there was the occasional boisterous fan who would give out a cheer during certain fight scenes but other than that it was pleasant. The three students were also just silently watching but Nagisa had to do a check in on Aria and Karma. His friend hadn't made any mischievous attempts as of yet and the way they were behaving towards one another resembled civil so perhaps he had overreacted, after all.

Karma's eyes were seemingly locked on the screen just like everyone else in the audience however there was a reason he had thrown the blanket over his legs instead of his shoulders like Aria and Nagisa had; first because it was pink with heart shaped smiley faces and second, using the dark, the noise and the blanket, Karma was able to slip a tube of mustard out of his pocket without being seen, unscrew it and carefully manoeuvre it to Aria's drink where he could squeeze some into the straw before she noticed. Karma waited for her to take a sip of her drinks so that he wouldn't get caught while she went for her soda; then when she put it down he immediately went into action.

Placing the tube which was equipped with a special tip to thin out the amount that would come out at a time; he carefully at the opening of the straw, he squeezed quickly, ensuring though that there was no sign of it on the external surface and then returned his attention to the screen. A smirk playing on his face as he eagerly waited.

Some might call him malicious but Karma considered it justifiable mischief when Aria had probed him more than once.

'I'm going easy on her anyway; it's not wasabi.' Karma thought, leaning back in his chair to watch the scene.

For a few minutes there was no reaction, Aria continued munching on her popcorn her eyes seemingly fixated on the screen. The film then took a turn into another big fight scene, there was an explosion in the world of the movie that destroyed half the city; the entire theatre went black and then slowly the screen light started to glow an orange warmth from the fire portrayed on the large screen.

Aria then reached for her drink and Karma didn't bother to glance, already detecting her movement from their proximity. His lip twitched upward while he continued to stare ahead of the movie. However after sometime when he didn't hear anything, he glanced over at Aria and saw her calmly placing her drink back in the cup holder.

'What the heck?' he frowned, turning away.

Karma gave no further indication of his disappointment and neither student looked each other's way as they kept on watching the movie. Although Karma would always pause when Aria went to take a sip of her drink but there was never any reaction from her.

'Did the tube not squirt anything or does she not have any taste buds to notice?" Karma wondered, before reaching for his own drink. He took a heavy sip and automatically tightened his lips to keep from spitting out the contents right in front of the audience. He could taste the tangy spiciness of the extra-hot mustard he had gotten.

And it did not mix well with soda slush.

Karma held his hand over his mouth, Nagisa noticed that he was fidgeting in his seat and leaned over. "Karma are you alright?"

"Fine," Karma growled which told Nagisa otherwise but also told him to leave it alone-whatever it was.

"He probably drank too fast," Aria told him.

Karma then glared over at Aria who was still watching the movie with unspoken tranquillity. She then looked over at him and held out a white handkerchief for him and smiled which only succeeded to further annoy him.

"I don't like mustard with my drinks-and apparently neither do you."

Taking the handkerchief so that he could wipe his mouth, Karma continued to glare at the girl who had just apparently outwitted him at his own game.

After wiping his mouth, he removed the handkerchief to reveal a visible smirk, "Not bad Glass-eyes. Switched the straws up on me huh? Pretty smart of you."

Aria shrugged, "Not that smart-you were just obvious."

Karma swallowed down his irritation in an attempt to make one last jab with his blade in hopes of hitting the target.

"Were you just trying to steal an indirect kiss, Aria-chan?"

"No, I was trying to avoid drinking mustard," Aria replied calmly. "But with you asking that question, could that have been your intention?"

Karma let out a sound that mimicked choking "Wha-

"Just asking, but I know it wasn't."

Karma narrowed his eyes at the girl, this girl certainly knew how to crawl under his skin. He hadn't been this annoyed with someone until Korosensei who kept foiling his assassination attempts when he first showed up in E-class. Now it was her who was managing to get the better of him.

Korosensei seemed completely oblivious as to what was happening since he was focusing on a scene that really 'emphasized' the main female character. It seemed that despite his sharp senses, he was easily distracted by his own preferences.

The movie was coming to its final scene; where the hero, the heroine and the villain were all facing off amongst the flames of chaos in the background from the fight. The heroine was standing in front of Sonic Ninja, protecting him from the villain coming towards them. But then the villain stopped; reaching for the devil mask on his face.

"You're saying that you would kill me, even if you knew who I really was?"

When he removed the mask, there was a man who resembled the heroine's appearance but with a far more masculine face.

"My brother?!"

After the movie Koro-sensei took off as quickly as possible so that they could return home; he stopped off in front of the E-class building. Nagisa was more than satisfied after watching the movie with the cliffhanger, saying it would leave them wanting more. Although Karma had to disagree saying that it was cliché for the heroine's brother to be the villain and Ritsu even said she could determine the ending by examining other Hollywood films.

"Cliché becomes cliché because people more than expect it; they want it," Aria said to them. "If they get anything else it's usually a disappointment."

"Ooh, so you liked the ending?" asked Karma to which Aria nodded and then turned to Korosensei as an example; who was balling over the concept of long-lost siblings.

"Thanks for the day, Korosensei," Nagisa said

Aria bowed with Nagisa, "Yes thank you very much."

"You're welcome, be careful on these roads at night okay kids." Koro-sensei waved before adding. "And write an English report on the movie for tomorrow."

'The experience was unusual.'

Was what Aria concluded after she came home that night; she took a quick shower, changed into her nightclothes and then went to the table to write her report on the movie as Korosensei had instructed them as payment for taking them to Haiwaii. It hadn't taken more than ten minutes for Aria to finish it though and the rest of the time she just sat at the table, letting her thoughts play through the experience.

By far she was yet to understand how things worked in that classroom. In the A-class she understood quickly how to function and adapt and she was able to do it easily because all that was required then was getting good grades. Manners, etiquette was irrelevant, as she had seen before. But in the E-class it was much more different than she expected; not just because of their teachers who were assassins, a target and someone from the Ministry of defense but even the students. They were able to go about the day like the assassination mission had no effect on their school lives. There were times when they would shoot at Korosensei or try to stab him whilst having a regular conversation. It was obvious they knew by now that Korosensei wouldn't be caught off guard and allow himself to get hit by them and at the same time, the students didn't seem to mind that.

Aria was confused about this prospect because everyone there was balancing on the line of being an assassin and being a student. Both seemed to be the priority and Aria didn't know how to fit in with that. In fact, she was positive that there was no way for her to fit in with that dynamic.

As Aria moved to the bed, she closed her eyes with one resolve.

"I'll come back; just promise me…."

"I promise, nii-nii."

"What?"

"I promise-

"Not to kill."

That's it for now! I hope you enjoyed this chapter and be sure to keep a look out for the next one since I already started on it.
