Today's the day; the school festival. Koro-sensei asked me to play some music as a live performance while everyone works... Needless to say, I'm really nervous. Koro-sensei says that I should get used to playing live because I thought that maybe in the future I'd like to play in a band, but I'm not exactly keen.
I look down at my (f/c) guitar, sighing.  We're opening soon, I should be fine. I'm only overreacting, noone will pay attention to me anyway, right? I should probably start now.
I sit down on my stool, making sure I'm comfortable. I begin to strum the chords to 'Coffee and Cigarettes' by Never Shout Never. Soon, I begin to sing along into the microphone. I keep my eyes closed the whole time, ignoring everything around me and smiling slightly as I get more into the music. When the song ends, I look up and see the boys that kidnapped me, Kaede and Kanzaki sitting down and eating... Wut. I just stare at then with wide eyes for a while before I choose to ignore their existence, starting my next song; an acoustic cover of 'with me' by Sum 41. The day seems to fly by, nothing much really happening and most people just ignoring me. At the end of the day, Karma comes up to me and smiles.
"Told you that you were a great singer, (y/n)-chan." he teased, leading the way out of school while I wrapped my guitar strap around my shoulders and followed him.
"Shut up." I looked away blushing. I feel awkward when people hear me sing. I might get over it someday, but right now I'll just feel uncomfortable. We were about to walk out of the school gates when we saw Asano, he was clearly waiting for me. Oh God, why can't I just have one day off?! There are only 1 week left, so I can survive, but Asano has been dragging me away the second I leave the school gates everyday. He's trying to get his best out of this, and it's obvious.
"Bye, Karma!" I waved goodbye as he walked off grumpily. I turned towards Asano who guided me into the car.

The next day~

I sang into the mic loudly, feeling more confident now. I was cut off mid-song by a loud child's voice.
"IT'S HER! LET'S GET HER!!!!" Shit. It's the kids from before!
"Gotta go fast!" I screamed, running away. I soon came across Hiroto, sacrificing him once again. Ah, I'm free.
I went back to my stool and started playing again. So the kids and cram school principal came? Cool. The day went by just as fast, I also got to meet an old assassin friend called Red Eye after ages. It was great.

The next day... Again~

I nervously chewed the inside if my cheek. I don't have to play for this many people, do I?
"Come on, (y/n). The article talks about good live music. Give it to them!" Nakamura pushed me towards the stool again and I could feel all eyes on me. I started off my set by playing an acoustic version of 'Trade Mistakes' by Panic! At the Disco. Everyone seemed to love it, including me. Now I know what I want to do. I love this feeling so much. In the future, I want to play music. I'll try, I can always go back to assassination if things seem impossible, but I atleast want to try.
I finished my set with a massive smile as everyone applauded. This is where I belong...

Time skip to results from the End of Semester Exams~

I can't believe it... I did it. I actually did it. I beat Asano. I took 1st place in my exams... I actually came 1st. I look at the scoreboard with a massive grin.
1st place: Akabane Karma/(l/n) (y/n)
2nd place: Asano Gakushuu

We did it... Me and Karma beat Asano. I turned to Karma with a massive grin on my face. He just seemed kind of shocked. He picked me up and twirled me around. When he placed me back on the ground, he kissed me. We both smile into the kiss, thinking the exact same thing. 'we did it'. 
Everyone was overjoyed and got back in their seats. Koro-sensei was about to tell us one of his weaknesses when we felt the building start to get knocked down. The principal walked in, telling us that he's here to assassinate Koro-sensei.
"Good luck with that, mate." I mocked, leaning my head on my hand.
"I mean, yeah, you're pretty much super-human, but you're not good enough to kill our pet octopus on a whim." Karma continued, leaning on the window sill.
The principal explained his awfully biased plan to us. Not gonna lie, this might work. It seems kind of promising. Koro-sensei opened the first textbook, immediately getting hit with multiple anti-sensei BB's. Yep, he's screwed. He opened the next one, but immediately solved the problem. Damn dude, he's good. He kept carrying on, not taking anymore hits and defeating the game. Then it was the director's turn. This man's pride is too much for him to back out now, and it's obvious. He's going to die. He took the grenade, but Koro-sensei covered him with his skin. Oh, thank fuck.
"Is it okay if I come over and try to assassinate you every once in a while?" the Director asked. Looks like he's kinda neutral with us now... Cool.

3 days later~

I heard a loud crash and sprinted towards the sound as fast as I could. I looked up to see Kaede on the roof, her hair was down, a cold look was in her eyes and tentacles were coming out of her neck.

"I'm the younger sister of Yukimura Aguri... Get it, murderer."
