People probably don't know this, as its not something I talk about a lot, but I'm afraid of the creepy crawlies. Like, very much afraid. Not of them, just them touching me. All those 'ugh' getting on your skin, all the legs. Anyway I cant, so I'm hoping to find a couple ants kill them and be done with it.
I look up to see how much time I have left and find that its already been 6 minutes. I start to stress out a bit before calming down 'I still have time' I keep reminding myself while cursing the stupid Manhwa for wasting most of it. Cause like seriously, even if it wasn't trashy, 40 minutes is a while.
I keep looking around to no avail. 'Why does this damn train have to be so clean' I grumble. Like seriously I cant find a single bug, and its pretty cramped in here so I cant just go searching everywhere.
I try my best to avoid the bugs, the blood and the fight, meaning my search area is pretty small. I look over to those who are still seated hugging their children or significant other and sigh. Its quite sad to know that they don't take it seriously enough, or they are scared. Either way they will probably die. I could help them but then again, I can barely find any bugs, having others looking for them will lower my chances of finding any. I look out the window thinking I could probably break the glass and find some bugs outside. But with what am I going to break the glass with. All I have on me is my bag, which is definitely not strong or heavy enough to land the hit.
Deciding against the idea I keep searching, keeping my eyes out for the smallest movement. While I'm crouched looking under the seats I get yanked by my hair.
"Ow" I exclaim while grabbing onto my hair to stop it from getting ripped off.
I look to see who pulled my hair and find a man wearing a black suit, with a long beard and a smile on his face. He has blood all over his clothes and I recognize him as one of the guys who was fighting another old dude. Seems this guy won and I'm the next target. I stand up, with his hands still pulling my hair and kick him in the balls from behind. He clearly didn't expect it because he immediately lets go of my hair and goes crouches down.'Damn that was easy', still not knowing whether to continue this interaction or look for the bug I decide on the latter. He's not worth my time, and he'll hopefully look for another target.
I was wrong.
He got up and started chasing me while I kept running to the end of the car. A fight was going on so I used that to my advantage and got behind them. They paid me no mind, but seeing how beard guy is a lot bigger than me, he'll probably have a harder time reaching me.
I was wrong.
He easily got passed me, and was looking pissed. Note to self: Dont go kicking guys balls cause while it deals damage, they get mad.
I could probably take the guy in a fight, but I don't have much time and need to find the stupid bugs. The car is not very big, so its not long before I reach the end and hit a wall. I turn around and find him a couple feet away no longer running but walking as though he cornered a prey.
I look up to the ceiling, whether it was to silently pray or something else, I will never know but what I do know is that I found what I was looking for. I look ahead to see he is still a couple steps away, clearly taking his sweet little time, smiling at me menacingly. I look over to the screen which is somehow always following me to check the time. 5 more minutes, plenty of time for now.
With the goal in my mind, I take off both of my sneakers and throw one at beard guys head. The second I hold up in my hand and attempt to jump and reach the ceiling, it doesn't reach so I have no choice but to throw it. Up on the ceiling, a spider web hangs with 3 small spiders, whether it is luck or something else that I happened to come across 3 spiders, the exact amount I need, when time is almost up, is beyond me. My aim is not perfect but I don't have time to try and fix it as the shoe I threw at him did literally no damage whatsoever and only served to fuel his anger.
I am not kidding when I say that he is close, like really close, like it would take less than 10 seconds to reach me close. My shoe hits its mark and kills the spiders but I dont have time to dwell on that. I got my 3 kills meaning I only have to survive until the time runs out, before the system thing kills him. Sounds pretty easy to me.
The beard guy, no longer taking his time, lunges at me aiming for my throat and I barely dodged. I got a whiff of his scent and gagged 'Ugh, for a dude wearing a suit you would think he puts on cologne or something'. I jump on the seats and sprint like my life depends on it, which it does, but thats before I remember 'Wait, I can take this guy on. I didn't take self defense for no reason' There were many reasons I took self defense, the main one being to keep a good figure.
I'm still carrying my bag so I stop in my tracks and turn around to face him, only to find out he is no longer chasing me. Seems he knows theirs not enough time left and that he would rather kill someone else than waste his time chasing me. This was not so good as this means that if he does end up killing someone else, he wont end up dying when the system kills those who don't have 3 kills and he might target me once this initiation thing is done. Which is not good, like at all.
