Chapter 244: How Do You Like Me Now?

In a 150-yard paintball field, the game of three on three was about to begin.

Before all of them stepped inside the field, they have established the rules for hits. They were going to call it a hit if the paintball leaves a solid mark anywhere on the player's body or equipment except on the gun, as it won't be counted. Also, they have agreed to have multiple hits before a player is out since there were only three of them.

Oliver suggested for five hits and the rest of the players agreed. They were going to play only one round and only for fifteen minutes.

When both teams were set at their respective bases and chosen spots, Daniel Cho shouted to his team, "Team A, ready?"

Seo Joon and Logan answered at the same time, "Ready."

He then called the other team, "Team B, ready?" In which Oliver responded, "We're ready."

With a sexy wicked smile on his face, Daniel pulled his mask down for protection before he yelled, "Game On!"

As soon as he signaled, the song How You Like Me Now by The Heavy blasted from the speakers lifting everybody's mood and they were all pumped to start the war.

The first one who took a shot was Logan in the first minute. With his skills, he was able to pinpoint where Louie was hiding. Seeing Louie's leg out from thirty-five feet away, Logan did not hesitate to pull the trigger twice, the poor man was surprised but since his jeans were thick, it didn't really hurt.

Logan found Chase and fired shots, hitting three in succession — he was totally enjoying this job right now. He was only sent here first to babysit Samantha but now he got to show off his skills, the smile on his face was ridiculous.

Almost five minutes into the game and Seo Joon was hit once by Oliver but he was quick to hide right away, avoiding the other shots that were coming through from the side.

At the eighth minute, Louie and Chase were already out of the game when Daniel, Logan and Seo Joon rained them with shots, leaving Oliver alone in Team B without backup. And he had already been hit twice by Seo Joon when the latter took his revenge.

Nervously, Oliver hid behind a tall barricade as he tried to find any sudden movements from the field.

What he did not know was that as soon as Louie and Chase were out, Logan and Seo Joon had already decided to leave the field as well, giving Daniel Cho a chance to play mouse. As most people may say, elephants are afraid of mice — and Oliver's ego is just as big as the size of an elephant.

Daniel Cho stealthily moved around Team B's base and he can clearly see where Oliver was hiding. In paintball, it is a general rule not to shoot a player that is closer within twenty feet from where you are because if one gets hit by a close-range shot, it will cause quite a bit of pain.

But does Daniel care about that rule? At this point, there are no rules…

Lying on his stomach on top of a tall block, Daniel looked through the sight of his gun.

He just wanted to give Oliver a taste of his own medicine – "You wanted to play dirty? Let's play dirty," he muttered to himself as he aimed the sight to the elephant's uncovered left ankle.

Normally, getting hit in that area will not hurt as much but Daniel was shooting from a closer range so he was sure that Oliver will feel the pain.

Ten minutes into the game, Oliver's concentrated face became distorted when he suddenly felt a hit on his exposed ankle. "Shît! Son of a-!" he groaned, crying out in pain and surprise as he scrambled to hide, unaware of where the shot came from. "Somebody shot me on the fûcking foot!"

Daniel did not make a sound as he watched him scream like a sissy, "Oh shut up. That's just like a bite of an ant. Don't be such a wuss," he whispered to himself.

Oliver's hiding was useless as his location was very vulnerable to Daniel's position. Oliver did not want to move from where he was as he was not sure if Team A was waiting for an ambush.

Waiting for two full minutes just to make Oliver sweat in fear in the quiet field, Daniel was now ready to fire his second shot.

*spalt*

"Aaaah!" he yelped when his right hand that was holding the gun was hit. As he was not wearing gloves, obviously the paintball smashed on his flesh— he instantly flicked his hand repeatedly as if that will ease the pain. "Who keeps shooting me on-"

*spalt*

"Aaaah!" he cried once again when the left hand was hit this time. Daniel did not even need to move an inch from his spot, it was like fishing in a small pond except the fish keeps biting the bait even after being hurt by the hook.

Swift was having way too much fun to stop the game after Oliver had already gotten five hits in total.

"I'm hit! I got five hits now!" Oliver announced, informing that he was out of the game so that whoever was trying to shoot him will stop.

However, after gingerly getting up from his hiding place, Daniel pulled the trigger and shoot a discreet area that only his sharp eye can see – it was the part just diagonal from his nape. And with precision, the paintball hit that exposed skin on Oliver's shoulder and he let out another curse.

The others who were watching from the safety zone beyond the field could not see everything clearly but judging by Oliver's screams and curses, they were sure that Daniel must have already played with him.

Coming out from his position, Daniel revealed himself with a smirk on his face behind the face mask. He went over to where Oliver was on the ground and as soon as he was nearing, Oliver raised his hands to yield,  "I surrender!"

A sinister laugh bellowed from Daniel when he found the young man had almost peed his pants in pain and fear. Oliver had already called being hit but he was still shot, he thought Daniel would keep on shooting him.

Daniel picked up Oliver's gun and pointed it at him, "Go, you're out. Leave the field. Game over."

Oliver turned around and walked towards the safety zone with a sour expression, Daniel following him from behind.

"You are too cruel, Brother! Why did you shoot me like that?"

"I'm not your brother," Daniel responded.

Oliver scoffed and walked faster, he was itching to change out of his gear to tend to his bruises, "You are an evil bastard!" he called. He was too grumpy that he got played like that.

Daniel just found him funny seeing how he was being such a sore loser right now, "An eye for an eye, right?"

They were already nearing the safety mark when Daniel stopped in his tracks and let Oliver walk several feet away before he raised his paintball gun and pulled the trigger, aiming at Oliver's ass.

Oliver Su's face reddened as he yelled, "WHAT THE F-!!!"
