"Ugh.. Stupid insomnia. I can't get any sleep now 'days," Chieko cursed under her breath as she sat on the forest floor. She then stood up and brushed the dirt off her jeans.

It was already 12:00 midnight. Girls of her age shouldn't go alone outside, especially at this time of the night. But she's an assassin—she never cared about being mugged by some inexperienced robbers in the middle of the night' she could easily slit their throat and leave them there to die as their blood gushed out and made the earth mud.

She headed outside of her apartment complex and walked her way to the nearest convenience store. The dark street was only illuminated by the faint street lights. Chieko looked up and saw millions of stars, twinkling brightly as they gave life to the night sky.

Beautiful...she thought to herself as she suddenly felt a rush of nostalgia in her system. Her eyes became sad but she shook it out, looked straight and continued walking.

"That will be 1575 yen ma'am." Chieko pulled her wallet from her pocket and grabbed the amount that she needed to pay her items. She handed the payment to the cashier and she gripped the plastic bag in which her items were held.

"Keep the change." She said and slipped back into the night. She took an ice lolly from the bag and peeled away it's wrapper.

On her way back home, she heard high noises from a nearby alley. Chieko was about to ignore it when she realised she would have to pass through it to get back to her block of apartments.

"Eekk! Get away from me!" A girl squealed. Chieko ran to the alley and observed in the faint moonlight a triplet of girls being surrounded by five thugs. She realized that the uniform the girls were wearing was also the same set of uniform that she wore to school.

"Come on.. don't be shy, let's have some fun..." the guy who looked like the gang's leader persuaded them and he grabbed the front girl's hand. The girl tried in vain to yank it away.

"Oi!" Chieko snapped which made the pause and look over. "You people are in my way." They continued staring at the raven-haired teen who stood there, staring daggers at them. The thugs grinned at each other and two walked over to her while the others grabbed the three girls' arms and dragged them over.

"Another cute girl appeared." One guy teased as they surrounded her. Chieko didn't budge when they approached her. She stared at them instead to torment them, which actually worked and they took a step back.

"Looks like this chick is tough..." The leader said, "But come on, we're willing to not hurt anyone if you and these girls will come with -" Chieko didn't even bothered listening to him as she stomped as hard as she could on the gang leader's foot. The man fell to his knees, massaging his injured toes. His mates then launched themselves at Chieko but she easily countered their attacks using the skills that she learnt from her years in assassination.

Soon, the gang found themselves lying on the ground as Chieko stood over them. She glared with an even more intimidating look.

"Useless scums." She spat. "Now run before I slit your throats." The gang quickly stood up, helping each other to make their escape.

"I swear you're gonna pay for all of this..." The leader left his words hanging while Chieko just yawned in response. As they disappeared from sight, she continued walking along the alley to get back home.

"H-hey! I recognise you!" One of the girls said which made Chieko turned her gaze to the girls who didn't look happy at all but instead wore this disgusted expression on their faces.

"You're one of those class 3-E rats aren't you?" The other girl said with disgust in her voice.

"I can't believe it. So that's why she managed to take down all of those delinquents; 'cause she's one herself!" Said a third. Chieko suddenly felt anger rush through her.

"Ungrateful idiots." She approached the three of them and they started to have a worried look on their faces.

"Want me to beat you three up like thosedelinquents?" She scowled and the three girls ran away. She then scratched the back of her head and stuffed her left hand in her hoodie pocket.

"Tch... me, a delinquent? So much for those people in the higher classes who go out at the middle of the night.." She mumbled as she continued walking back home.

"Nu~ya! AKIYAMA-SAN! YOU WERE REPORTED FOR ATTEMPTING TO BEAT UP SOME OF YOUR SCHOOLMATES LAST NIGHT!" Koro-sensei lectured Chieko as she entered the room with an annoyed face

"Yeah yeah.. I was sent to the chairman's office because of that, so shut up already.." She scratched her head as she proceeded to her seat at the back, ignoring her teacher. She then remembered the faces of the girls last night which made her want to stuff their proud expressions up their noses.

"Akiyama-san! Are you listening to your sensei?!" Korosensei asked once more as Chieko took her seat and slammed her books onto her desk, making everyone jump.

"Nope." She answered which made the yellow octopus even more furious due to her actions. Karma laughed at her seatmate's answer.

"Good job Chieko-chan.. beating up delinquents, sure is good ne?" Chieko gave her red-haired seatmate a surprised look. It shifted into an amused expression as she chuckled lightly.

"Who knew that you actually have good taste when it comes to hobbies." She gave off a faint smile before going back to her usual emotionless face. She noticed a certain bluenette jotting down something on his notebook, to which she just ignored as she nestled her head into her arms to sleep.
