Mark smiled at and then gave a wave as he left my room. Knowing what I did now, I wanted to hate Mark, but I couldn't.
Yet.
I needed to see why he betrayed , but my mories were limited still to what I was shown. It was like sothing was forcing to see all the pieces before I could be sure of what really happened.
My body was about to turn back from the door, but then another person appeared at my door with a snide look. I knew right away who this guy was, Harold.
"So, you are the new child that Mr. Zero brought in to help with the project, hmm? You don't look like much, but you had better not get in my way! The boss might have told I have to show you around, but that doesn't an I need to like you!" Shouted Harlod at .
Slowly, I felt myself sink into my body, and my thoughts started to get blurry.
I shook my head and looked at the strange kid in my doorway that was yelling at . I had just gotten here, and this was the second person to give a hard ti.
I wasn't really sure what was up with everyone, but I wasn't trying to cause trouble.
"Hey, I am Zack. I won't get in your way, don't worry, but I just t you. What is with the hostels?" I asked, trying to be nice, but this guy wasn't having it.
"Na is Harold, and I am your superior. If I tell you to get sothing, you get it. I will decide when you are ready to work on the project!" Harold yelled at , and I nodded.
I was starting to get fed up with this guy, and I had just t him. What was his problem anyway?
If we were going to be working together, then there was no reason for him to not like . Whatever it was, I was starting to regret coming here, but I didn't co here for any of these people.
I had a purpose for being here and a goal, so I wasn't going to let anyone else's bad mood change that. These people were just going to have to learn to get used to .
"Okay, Harold. You said that it was your job to show around? Then why don't we do that?" I asked with a bit of an edge in my voice, but it flew over Harold's head.
"Yes, I guess that I have to! Follow , and don't fall behind! I won't be repeating myself!" Harold told as he turned and started to walk away from my room.
I could see that the two of us weren't going to get along very well, but at least I would have Mark. I was worried about coming here, but I hadn't expected my arrival to be taken with such hostilities.
I shook my head and jogged out of my room and into the silver hallway that was filled with doors. So of them were open, and I could hear many people talking, but I ignored them, jogging after Harold.
"This is obviously the dorms. The showers and bathrooms are at the end of the hall, but you had better stay out of the girl's washroom!" Harold growled at like I was likely to do that.
I was really starting to not like this guy, but starting a fight as soon as I got here was not a good way to get to know people. Maybe.
"Don't worry about ; I am not here for the won; I am here to work on my project. I don't know what your problem is, but I didn't co here with the intention of taking anyone's job! I would appreciate it if you could just show around the place and drop the attitude," I growled, giving a glare as we reached the end of the hall.
"Oh? Well, I didn't ask to be put in a babysitting position with a child like you!" Harold shouted, turning to face .
"I might be you, but the only person acting like a spoiled child is you!" I shouted back, feeling my anger starting to rise up.
"Really? You are just so low-life that probably has no talent! Maybe living on your own made you think that you were hot shit, but that won't fly around here, orphan!" Harold shouted, and I saw red.
My fist flew up and smashed into Harold's face before I knew what I had done. The loudmouth crumpled to the ground as ice flooded through my veins.
What did I just do? This was not the way things were supposed to go, but I hated being reminded of what had happened.
"You son of a bitch! I am going to," Harold started to say as he picked himself up, looking like he was about to charge .
"Enough!" A female voice barked from so close behind ; I jumped into the air in surprise.
"Jill, did you see what this barbarian just did to ?! This program has no place for the likes of him!" Harold shouted as he held a hand over his bleeding mouth.
I turned around to find a tall, well-built, red-headed woman who towered over . Yup, this was the end for .
It looked like I was about to get my ass beaten to death by an amazon, but the woman winked at . I called her a woman, but she seed to be closer to my age than I had assud after looking.
"I was listening to the two of you from my room. If this is too much trouble for you, then I will act as a guide for the new mber of your team. I will also be reporting EXACTLY what I heard and was said here today. You should know better, Harold," Jill said, and she sounded like she ant it, but Harold brushed it off.
