Day three of JAS.

Today we would go on our own, using “civilians” to distract attention. I wore my usual body armour and had a carrot and an apple for weaponry. Unfortunately there had been a mistake in buying weapons (read: fruit) so we did only had one banana for the whole team. I did also only get one apple grenade, instead of the usual two-three. At least I had two carrots this time to avoid death if I would lose my primary one.

I started in our classroom, sneaking through the corridors by myself. I used as many back doors as I could to avoid walking in public spaces and made my way to the U corridor. After ten minutes I reaced my destination and jumped in a classroom with a few Y students in. Friends! They were reading some math, and looked up when I entered the room.

I quickly saw something very interesting through the window. Outside, there were a bunch of D students with bulletproof vests about twenty meters from me. I dropped on the floor to avoid getting seen. Instead, I asked the fellow Y students for information about the D-students outside. How many were there? Did they wear red arm bands (meaning they are still alive)? Distance? The window on the far side of the room was open, so I removed my backpack and started to crawl on the floor while taking up my apple grenade.

My friends told me there were a bunch of them, but only one wearing the red arm band. Only one, and the throw is quite tricky. I decided that it would be worth a try. They did not at all pay attention but just stood there talking. I lifted my head to the window and had a look. Five D-students, one alive. It will probably be an easy target to kill!

I pulled the safety pin and threw the apple towards the group. This is were I made Huge Mistake #1 of the day.  I threw a bit to high, making the apple hit the last remains of the outstretching roof and bouncing off. The noise pulled all the D-students’ attention to my window and the guy with a vest that suddenly disappeared. I was out of apples and did only have carrot knives now, so a second try was impossible.

Only thing left was to get out there as quickly as possible. I grabbed my bag, ran out and, after a short hesitation, made my way to C4, a hundred meters away and probably far away enough for them to lose my track. I got there in very short time and hid my backpack under a chair. Now it was me alone and I would not give up without a fight.

I looked for flight paths. In the rear of C4 there are doors leading to one small corridor each. In the end of the corridors there are glass doors leading into the open. There was a handle on the door, but I did not want to use them since I though that it would raise the alarm. All other doors in school have pushbuttons on the side for opening. Huge Mistake #2. There later showed to be perfectly safe to open, had I exited there I would have been safe.

I exited C4 to one of the rear corridors and hid in the two-story elevator located there. I looked through the chink at the bottom of level 2 to see a few pair of shoes walking around. I heard excited voices and I quickly guessed they were my enemies coming to kill me. I knew they were one big group and only one alive, so probably they dead ones would walk in front to do reconnaissance while the alive one would be the one handling the killing.

I heard steps besides me, and a relay clicking. Probably someone clicked the elevator button and expected it to open. I decided that this was it. I grabbed a firm hold of my carrot and stormed out of the lower door. I stabbed they D-student in front of me, but he was just laughing. He was already dead. I ran up the stairs as quickly as I could, only to see a group of D-students smiling at me and pointing to the apple that had now landed at my feet. They got me.

My worst day, I did not score any kills. Probably the D students had found me through a tip from one of their civilian friends somewhere close who had seen me running into C4.

Phew. I felt quite hot of all the running and I needed to sit down to let my pulse sink to normal levels. My friends did not do too well, except for Christopher. He had killed two people. One with an apple grenade and the other one with his banana gun.  The others were also dead, except for one! He had been planning to stay home for lunch that day, saving his life for the afternoon game. After 17:00 he would start killing people with his carrot at München Hoben, a yearly festival held at LiU. The rules say that during München Hoben, only carrots are allowed, probably because the inability to fight more advanced weapons while intoxicated. I don’t know how he did tonight, but I will find out tomorrow.

We have also been thinking out a surprise for the last day. It is still top-secret, but it will surely be effective!

Over and out.
