"I am fully convinced you never graduated kindergarten" Pin muttered to Tulip from where they were hiding around the corner from Bobby's room.

His cousin rolled her eyes, still on the look out for the soon-to-be victim of their latest prank. Bobby Hood. Also known as the guy who had eyes for Tulip's older sister, Tiger Peony.

"Oh shut up, this was just as much your idea as it was mine."

Pin shifted, knowing it was technically true.

"My idea was to prank him in NORMAL way. This... is definitely not what I—"

*CRASH*

*ClANG*

*CRUNCH*

*BANG*

He winced before continuing "—had in mind..."

He quickly started to mentally weigh the pros and cons of abandoning ship before Bobby or anyone else came to investigate the sounds coming from the archer's room.

Pros:

He'd have deniability about being involved in the mess. He would most likely be able to work his way out of punishment.He'd live to see 30.

Cons:

He'd miss seeing the look on Bobby's face when he opened the door.Tulip could lie her way out of any trouble and pin it all on him like it was her name and not his.

Tulip gave him a warning look, knowing him well enough to know what he was thinking. "Don't you dare bail on me now or I swear to the Gods you will be next."

Pin raised his hands in surrender so fast he almost gave her whiplash.

"OKAY OKAY! I won't bail! Jeez, calm down!"

Tulip elbowed him in the side.

"OW! What was that for?"

"Shhh! Shut up! Look, HE'S coming!"

The bespectacled boy leaned over her shoulder and peered around the corner, nearly knocking her over as he did so. And sure enough, there was Bobby, bow draped over his shoulder as he fished for the key to his dorm room.

Only to pause when he heard the noises coming from said room.

"Oh no..."

"Why's he stopping?"

"I don't know. Maybe it's because he can HEAR what's going on his room?"

Bobby furrowed his brow, not hearing them. "What in the..."

He quickly continued fishing, threw his keys and unlocked his door— only to be rammed into by a VERY ANGRY Billy goat.

Hard.

So hard in fact that he was sent flying back into someone's locker.

"BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"

*SNAP*

He groaned, sliding down the locker and clutching his aching head. There was a Bobby shaped dent left over from where he hit it.

The goat rammed into the locker and stomped on him before trotting off down the hall.

Leaving a broken bow and a crumpled, unconscious archer behind.

"Oh–"

"Fuck."

The two cousins looked at eachother, significantly paler.

"WE KILLED BOBBY!"

"THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!"

"WHAT? HOW IS IT MY FAULT?!"

"YOU'RE THE SMART ONE!"

"YOU KNOW THAT'S A DAMN LIE!"

"OH FOR THE LOVE OF—FORGET IT! LET'S GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE!"
