Includes: Mentions of blood, violence, angst, minor cussing, and kidnapping. (This is Assassination Classroom, people. Literally the whole point is killing someone)
You and Karma have been friends since childhood, playing tricks on your teachers is what led you two to class 3-E together. Now, you play tricks on your new octopus teacher by trying to murder him, stabbing him whenever you can. Recently, last Valentine's Day you had confessed your love to Karma. He knows you have a crush on him, but he hasn't said anything, and recently things have been weird between the two of you ever since you told him.
Today, your class was going on a field trip to some far off town, so distant that you were going to take the train. Kuro-sensei had given you giant red books that he thought you would actually read through to see the sights. It was the size of an encyclopedia. There was no way.
People started getting into groups of who they would be going with for the trip. You were alone. Only recently had you gotten off probation from your last prank with Karma, so you didn't really know anyone else to ask. You had not received good enough grades in either academics or assassination to attract any new friends either.
Karma came up to you in his own thankfully, saving you the embarrassment. "Hey, we need a sixth person for our group. Wanna join?" You obviously told him yes. The group went and planned all the places that they wanted to see (without using the encyclopedia), and mapped out the best places to assassinate Kuro-sensei.
Sadly, you had to ride in the back of the train. The students in classes A-D were in first class, while you E class people were stuck in coach, crammed in with some really sketchy people back there. Regardless, you felt safe with your classmates, trained assassins, and, well, an alien that could go mach 20.
Finally, you were at your destination. Kuro-sensei was with another group, so you could actually sightsee instead of only worrying about killing him. There was a ton of really cool places you went and saw, including a giant palace. After lunch, the group went walking down some of the back alleys.
"This would be a great place for ambushing someone," the green haired girl from your group said.
No sooner had she said it than your classmates were trapped in a ring of people. They were the same sketchy people from the train. "This little missy is a smart one. From that prestigious middle school, I guess that makes sense." The leader of the high school gang smirked down at your group and grabbed her, slinging her over his shoulder. She tried kicking him with a wail, but he hardly flinched. "Listen up, kids. If you let us take the pretty ones without a fight, you won't have any harm come to you. Nice and easy." What did that mean?
Another two of the gang members picked you up. Well, at least you were 'pretty', you guessed. You were not going to be kidnapped that easily though. Using the techniques you had learned about in the classroom, you easily flipped out of their grip and kicked their kneecaps. They yowled in pain. Two more of the goons came. Soon, it was an all out brawl. There was too many of them, even with your skills, you were just small middle schoolers. It was pointless. Your classmates were knocked out on the ground, save you, the green haired girl, and Karma. The man holding you took off, running away from the group.
"Karma!" You shouted, reaching out for him. Someone had knocked him onto the ground. You could see a large bruise on his cheek. He tried getting up to come after you, but he did not have the strength. "Don't worry. I'll come for you. I swear. We just need a plan," he growled.
You stopped kicking and screaming at the kidnapper. Karma's promise sounded so grave it had sent shivers up your spine. If he said he was going to do something, he was going to do it. You felt less worried for yourself and more worried for the people that kidnapped you. He would give them hell. You could tell that much from his voice. The green haired girl started to yell again. "Damn you kids! How are we supposed to kill Kuro-sensei if you can't even protect your own classmates from High Schoolers?" She certainly had a point.
The gang dumped you and the green hair (which you had learned her name was Kaede) down on the floor. You were surprised that their hideout was so close to where they had kidnapped you from. The group was too busy arguing over who got which person to actually pay attention to you and her. "Kaede. What do we do?" You whispered to her.
"I'm not sure. Wait! I have something that may help!" She pulled the giant red guide book out of her backpack. You huffed at her. "Are you serious?" How would a guidebook help you?
She flipped through the pages. She came to a page that she read very intently. "What is it? Did you find something?" She sighed and shook her head, pointing to a page. You took the book.
'What to do if you become kidnapped:
"Are you kidding me?" You throw the giant book at their leader in a rage. It sailed through the air and hit him on the head, and shockingly he crumpled down onto the ground. The gang members had not seen what had happened, too consumed with fighting amongst themselves. When they saw that their leader was down, they stopped fighting and tried to help him up. He was totally knocked out, so that did not help any. Those people must be really dumb.
You suddenly tilted your head as you heard a squeak. Your classmates snuck through the back door. Silently, you jerked your head and motioned for Kaede to look that way. She saw them, and nodded in understanding. Your classmates beat up the leaderless thugs by using a formation you had studied, ganging up on each person individually. Most of the kidnappers slipped away. Karma was in a frenzy. You had never actually seen him attack another person before, except in second grade when someone stole your candy. And attacking Kuro-sensei. You had heard that he was really good, but you had not expected what you saw. Karma was an absolute boss in battle. The way he almost danced grace fully, ducking punches and giving them back. He was passionate, all right. When all the fighting had stopped, all the high schoolers had been knocked out. Your classmates were all good, except Karma had some blood on his knuckles.
Karma knelt down next to you. "Did they do anything to you?" His voice was laced with concern over your well-being. It kind of concerned you. He never acted this... caring. You shook your head. "Luckily, you got here just in time." Karma put his head against your chest in a hug. You hugged him back. His shoulders started shuddering. A small sound escaped from his lips, slightly smothered by your clothing. Was he laughing? You felt something wet fall against your lap. A tear. Karma Akabane was crying. "K-Karma? You're acting strange. Are you okay? Why are you crying for? I'm safe. Besides, I was the one that was kidnapped. I should be the one crying.
He clung to you tighter. "I realized how much you mean to me. Today, I was scared. I'm never scared. But I was today. Scared because I could have lost you. If you had been killed... I'd have kept jumping off that tree branch until Kuro-sensei gave up on trying to save me." The weight of his words settled on you. "Don't talk like that, Karma! You saved me, that's all that matters." You leaned more into his embrace and wipes his tears on your uniform as he snuggled against you. You had never seen him so vulnerable looking. Your classmates were still scanning for the goons, and had not seen the two of you. You kissed Karma's forehead. "Let's get up. Kuro-sensei will show up any minute. And I'm sure you don't want him or any other people to see you like this." You helped him to his feet and smiled at him. He save you a small smile back, and kissed you on the cheek. "I love you too." He backed away a bit so it would not look like the two of you were up to anything to your classmates.
Kuro-sensei came in. "You have really outdone yourselves! I came in ready to beat up some punks, but it looks like you already took care of all of them. Full marks!" Kaede stepped forward. "I would like to take credit for this, but that wouldn't be fair. Karma took most of them out actually." Kuro-sensei looked impressed, pink with a shine in his eye. "Perhaps you will be the one to kill me, after all." Karma swiped at the teacher, and Kuro-sensei easily dodged. You swiped at him too. Karma chuckled. "Just because you're impressed doesn't mean I'm letting up. In fact, I might just up my game." He took out his gun and fired a few rounds, while your classmates tried stabbing the teacher. "That's what you get for only writing 'wait for help'!" Kaede shouted. Everything was back to normal for class 3-E.
