Zein's Point of View
I was uncomfortable scratching my leg. I'm wearing short shorts that are always covered with weeds around. My rubber shoes are also muddy.
"Are you sure this is the way? Just tell me if we're lost ah? I don't seem to be surprised." I said angrily.
"Can I, Zein? Shut up? You've been moaning a lot beforeyou don't help at all. "
I just stared at Mia who was busy pointing in the direction. He is the one who holds the map that he found somewhere.
"It's too furry. Just be careful there might be snakes around." Dave said.
"Thanks for the intimidation, Dave." said Vanessa holding a stick.
"Sshh. You'll only get tired if you drive." Jerome disobeyed ahead of us to walk.
"We're close. Just a little patience." Matt calmed us down.
I almost sneered when there was mud sticking to my thigh. I hit Vanessa because of the stick she was holding.
He just laughed before standing next to Mia. Don't even apologize.
We are now going to Hell University in the middle of the forest. Isn't it amazing? Haha. because Mia found a map and of course, we're friends who love adventure, here we are now, going there.
"Aray!" I fell behind Matt when he suddenly stopped. Only now did I notice that they all stopped.
my jaw dropped when I saw what they were looking at. An old gate that is oversized and rusty. In the center is Hell University written in blood.Creepy.
"Is it here yet?" Jerome asked. I almost rolled my eyes. Isn't it obvious, Jerome?
"I think so." Mia said.
"What are you doing here ?!"
I held on to Matt's dress for fear of the sudden appearance of a mentally ill mama. Gosh!
"Is this Hell University? We want to enroll." Even Mia.
A smirk flashed on mama's dry lips. Shit! I don't think so.
"Follow me." He walked with us first.
I grabbed Vanessa's arm already excited. Excitement shows on their faces as I get scared. Psh.
"I think. It's a bad idea, Van." I whispered to Vanessa.
"I don't think so."
I can't believe we're entering. the students greeted us quietly talking. The rest of you are crying.
"You should be registered first." Mama said.
I can't take my eyes off the students. The rest of you are staring sharply at us. Then the others smiled. Shet! Creepy.
"It will be exciting." Jerome whispered winking at the women.
This place seems so crowded even though it is so vast. Hell University. I covered my mouth when the students suddenly ran away.
"What's up?" Vanessa asked.
"Riot. Just ignore it." mama's apple.
"Riot? Eh why doesn't anyone seem to be stopping them? You? Why are you still here?" Dave asked.
We stopped at a door. Mama looked at us without removing the smirk on her lips.
"All your questions will be answered as well. Come on."
we entered the room and were greeted by a woman sitting in a swivel chair. He motioned for us to sit down which we did.
The muddy floor became even more muddy because of our muddy shoes. Don't they know how to clean? Tsk.
"So, Good Morning newbiesi am Madame Violet, HU's Headmistress. Please, fill up the forms. "Mama handed us the forms.
As I fill up I also glance at Madame and your mama who are smiling at us. My throat was dry so I just returned my attention to the form.
"Welcome to Hell University!" Madame and mama laughed at the same time.
"Thanks. Hmmm. How much is the tuition fee?" Mia asked.
"I am a scholar and I brought all my documents." Vanessa said.
Madame and Mama stared at each other and laughed. Gosh! Why do they seem weird?
"It's free..everything is free. "
Vanessa and Mia were happy to be together while Matt, Jerome and Dave just smiled.
"But ..."
We all fell silent. What is it now?
"You must know our one and only rule here." Madame said smiling.
"You only have one rule ?! Whoa!" Dave said in amazement.
Why don't they seem to notice the weirdness of everything going on? No tuition fee? Is there a school like that? Or if anyone is likely to accept a scholar but this school? HU? Nevermind.
"7pm to 5 am is our Freedom Night also known as Bloody Night"
my forehead furrowed.
"What do you mean?" I will ask.
"Everything is free. You will have your freedom. Is it also the time where Killing is legal, lock all the doors, never get outside that range of time because if you do, you will die."
all my blood rushed to my body after I heard everything Madame said which to this day was still smiling.
"Are you serious ?! That's craziness but cool!" Matt.
Gosh! Don't they know how to be afraid? I am used to dangerous adventures but I have a bad feeling with this one. this one is nervous.
"You are the newbie. It's better if you're careful. Not all friends also consider you friends. Never let your guard down, or else. You know what I mean?"
until we got inside the boarding house where the six of us were together I still couldn't believe it. Is murder legal? God! Madness!
"Guys. Let me breathe first." I said before leaving.
I need air and I also need to calm myself. so many negative thoughts enter my mind like here that we will die and many more.
My feet carried me to the park nearby. I hugged myself as the cold wind blew. Nobody here.
I sat on the swing that was already rusty and pushed the ground to make the swing move.
I looked around. Many former students suddenly disappeared after a riot. Are they really that scary? Should I also be?
"You will die."
I turned to a tree where I saw a man in a black mask. It smokes a cigarette.
"Who are you?" Fear gripped me when I saw his dropped knife bathed in blood.
I stood on the swing. I could feel my knee shaking.
"Newbie.what's your name? "
"Z-Zein."
He laughed when he heard what I said. Mejo I felt insulted because of her laughter. There's nothing funny here!
"Sounds angel but at the end. You will also hold a knife to survive."
He threw the knife he was holding at me so I backed away. my throat went dry with nervousness.
"Scared. You shouldn't have come in here. Tsk."
"Who are you?!"
He stepped closer to me a few times so I stepped back. This guy is creepy! Gosh!
"I am not your friend. No one is your friend."
I frowned at what he said. what does he mean Confusing.
"It's already 6:30 pm. You still have 30 minutes to leave. Lock all the doors. They have a warm eye on you. Be careful."
He turned around and started to step away. I just watched his back until it disappeared.
who is he and who is he referring to?
I ran back to the dormitory and caught the gang laughing. They all changed their minds when I slammed the door shut.
"We went to the wrong school guys! This is no longer for fun!"
they laughed at what I said so I couldn't help but get annoyed. Why don't they believe? This is not a joke! Our lives are all in danger.
"You know Zein? You're going to die before us in fear. Just calm down." Mia said laughing.
I stared at him.
we were all shocked when the bell rang around. I hurriedly locked all the doors and windows.
I looked at the wall clock.
"7:00 oclock"
Silence enveloped us and I could feel the pounding in my chest. The crowded.
"What's that?" Jerome asked.
"It's already bloody night." Vanessa said that she was about to walk out the door but I quickly blocked her.
"What ?! Are you going to kill yourself?" I asked annoyed but he just laughed at me.
"Easy, Zein. Just kidding."
They laughed at the same time. They laugh at the serious thing. Are they crazy?
"Guys please. I don't want anything bad to happen to any of us here. Just please!"
Annoyed, I sat down on the sofa and folded my arms. Damn it!
"Hey, sorry." I felt Vanessa hug me and Mia stood beside me.
"Are you really scared Zein?" Remember Mia asked me.
I felt tears well up in my eyes for fear that something bad might happen to any of us. I don't want that to happen.
"Mia. I am really serious. There's something in this school more than this bloody night!"
I can feel the stares of Madame and mama earlier. They seem to be planning something. Gosh! Am I getting paranoid?
"Sshh. Okay. Let's sleep for now on and tomorrow morning we'll leave." Mia hugged me too.
I just smiled. "Thank you." I whispered.
"Sshhh." we all looked at Dave when he told us to be quiet.
Zien's point of view
He peered through a crack in the window. We approached him. We opened the window slightly to see what he was looking at.
I was so close to Mia's arm. so many masked black people scattered.
"Who are they?" Matt asked in a whisper.
They are scary. Who are they and what are they doing outside on such a bloody night today? Why are they masked?
We quickly closed the window when one of them looked at us.
we ran to the side and gathered. I could feel the pounding in our chests.
"Did they see us?" Vanessa asked tremblingly.
"I thin-"
Dave couldn't keep up with what he was going to say with a series of knocks on our door as if it was going to crash.
the pounding in my chest got louder.
"Stop it, Luke!" I heard screams from outside.
"Okay okay."
The knocking is also gone. We stayed in the corner until I fell asleep
When we woke up we immediately went to the Headmistress Madame Violet.
"What can I serve you?" He asked with a smile. He toyed with the ball pen he was holding and repeatedly tapped it on the table.
This dress is still black. even his lips and nails were black. Black lady ata 'to.
"Good Morning Madame Violet. We want to leave school here." Vanessa said in a polite tone.
He raised an eyebrow and then burst out laughing. It stood up and folded in front of us.
"Why ?what's the problem? Did I think COOL? "He asked.
"This school is a complete mess! It doesn't matter! How come this school can't be closed ?!" I could no longer keep my mouth shut.
"Easy Miss Zein Shion, Hell University is an independent school.it's not under the government's control and they can't interfere. "
"How come ?! Just! Lead us the way when we're stuck in this pest school!" Dave said.
Madame's gaze deepened on us. That pure intimidating black eyes --- They are up to something. Who is she?
"We have a motto here. Once you enter, there's no turning back." It laughed softly.
My jaw dropped at what he said. We can't leave anymore? No way! We are not safe in this place! All students here are evil! they're scary and I'm sure if we stay here too long we might be damned.
"What do you mean ?!" Mia asked angrily.
Madame Violet toyed with the tip of her hair before sitting down in the swivel chair and twirling it. I looked away because what he was doing was intoxicating. he really annoys us and doesn't take us seriously. Damn.
"We are not joking here! Lead us the way out!" Matt's orders.
"Nah. Come in here. No one is forcing you. All you have to do now is ..... stand up!"
Jerome stood up and slammed Madame's desk creating a deafening sound.
"Bullshit! We're getting out of here! We'll find a way! We'll report you to the police!" Jerome's voice was sobbing.
Vanessa approached him to calm him down.
"Go Mr.Jerome Marquez. Find the way out if there is. Nothing is stopping you." Madame laughed.
my eyes narrowed. Is he playing with us? Is he really annoying us? What is he planning? Is he serious? UGH!
"Anyway, Here's your uniform. Together with your schedule."
We just stared at the plastic bags he released with our names on them.
"Wait.do we still need to study? Will you teach us any lessons? Or just kill what you know? "Vanessa asked in a sarcastic tone.
He finds his maltreatment again. Well, I can't blame him. This woman is really weird, her grin is annoying.
"Hell University is still a school. We have lots of teachers. Only a select few of the teachers here pass us, so I assure you that you will learn a lot here over the other school. They are all great." Aniya.
gradually sinks in to me that Hell University is literally hell, when it comes to their one and only rule. Madame Violet seems to be telling the truth but still I am not convinced to study here. No way.
"Whoa! There are teachers who still want to teach here despite danger? Amazing!"Matt's sarcastic response.
"Let's just assume that their salaries are not normal either. They don't just double or triple the money they receive. Enough for the discussion. Go to your respective classes now and wear your uniform. The President might catch you.I'm sure you won't like the punishment. "
We did nothing but follow him. Here we are now in cr and getting dressed. Your boys are ahead because we have different schedules.
"I must say their uniform is cute." Mia praised the mini skirt we were wearing.
they tied my hair while I just relaxed.
We stopped chatting when a tall woman came in, I mean a little taller than me. I am the tallest of the three of us Van and Mia.
I couldn't help but glance at him in the mirror. He washed his hands. her hair is black and her eyes are still very black. She is beautiful.
"Newbies." He said without even glancing at us.
I rolled my eyes in front of the mirror and adjusted my blouse. I feel now that he is looking at me. Shit! Why am I afraid of him?
"The news was true that six rats entered here. Pathetic."
My ears tingled with what he said so I couldn't help but look at him with my eyebrows raised.
"Don't worry. We're leaving too." Vanessa said angrily.
It laughed softly. she looked in the mirror again and put lipstick on her lips. We watched his movements. He had a scar cut on his neck but it was not obvious.
"Are you leaving? Show me the way when you see it?" He laughed.
"Huh ?! You don't know?" I will ask.
she smiled at me before returning her lipstick to her shoulder bag.
"No one knows. Once you enter, there's no turning back ... unless you're dead or ..." he hung up.
He walked to the door but even before he came out he had already formed his word.
"You can leave if someone with a high rank in HU will help you. Guess who?" He slammed the door shut and left the three of us floating.
What?!
-**-
Madame Violet was not joking about the fact that she said that their teachers were high class. this first subject we Math is easier to understand, it is more like that all long methods have their own method which makes it easier than I thought.
"Zein. Didn't you notice?" Vanessa to my right whispered to me. Mia is on my left, I don't care if I'm in the middle and the three of us are in the back.
I didn't answer his question and just felt the surroundings. I knew it! Almost all of our classmates were staring at us. your others are just peeking while others are openly if we stare. Some were smiling and others seemed worried.
"Mia?" I tried to get the attention of Mia who was an idiot outside but she didn't even pay attention to me.
I was surprised when Mia cried and hugged me tightly. I looked outside where he had been staring.
I froze loudly when I saw a man tied to a chair. His hands were tied behind his back while he was undressed and stabbed to death. its protruding tongue is also noteworthy.
I heard whispers and also shouting when they saw the poor man.
They all approached there led by Sir Alvarez, our Math teacher. I couldn't follow because Mia hugged me crying.
"Shit! Who did that? It's so heartless." Vanessa commented stroking Mia's back to calm her down.
I glanced outside with a group of curious students. Others remained inside as if afraid to come out.
"Devil.only heartless persons can do such thing. "I said.
They are demons. Damn! Now it is necessary that we really get out of this place. We are not safe here, no one is.
"Are you all right ?!"
"What happened to Mia?"
The boys arrive whimpering. The worry was obvious in their eyes.
"She's fine. She's just scared. It's okay and we'll take her home to the dormitory when she can rest." I suggest they all agree.
Dave picked Mia up and Vanessa and Jerome helped them.
"We found out something about this school." Matt said seriously.
I would have asked when he ran to the gathering people to be curious. I followed him. I covered my mouth closely to see the lifeless man.
My eyes widened and I was almost disgusted when I saw his sticky tongue with a nail mark. seems to be sealing it with flaming iron because of the mejo deep it is.
"They did it again." Whispered a woman in the mirror.
He looked at me and smiled.
"Zein, right?" He asked. I just nodded.
"I'm Meico. 3rd year student." his introduction. I just nodded because I had no interest in meeting anyone.
I have nothing to trust right now. Damn! The difficulty of our situation!
"That nail in his tongue symbolized the Black Blood Gang. It's only now that they're feeling it again after what happened last week."
Zien's point of view
I couldn't help but listen to what he said and it was really confusing. What is he saying?
"It just means that another war will happen soon ... I know it's more intense now because they killed the only brother of Raze Silvenia, the leader of the Devil God Warrior."
I was devastated after hearing them. Shit! We need to get out as soon as possible because otherwise .... we will be involved in a big event.
"Let's go?" Matt asked me where he was from. He glanced at the poor man for a moment before nodding.
we are far from that incident but it seems that its replica is already imprinted in my mind, especially the nail on its tongue. How brutal they can be? Or maybe it's just a taste of their wickedness.
"Rouge Silvenia.he's Raze Silvenia's only brother. "Matt said looking at the road seriously.
My ears remained on him, waiting for more details.
"Who are they?" I asked even though I already knew who he was referring to Raze, the Devil God Warrior leader Meico said.
I felt Matt put his arm around me smiling now.
"Enough. You don't have to know, Zein, but you can't really get out of here and that's what I'll never let that happen." aniya.
I don't understand him. Why did he prepare for nature? Did anyone tell him? How is he he already knows a lot, is it possible that he can't get out of here?
We got to the dorm and caught up with the sleeping Mia. Maybe he was really scared.
"Eat it. Of course, what's your subject?" Vanessa asked us setting the table. Jerome and Dave are probably in the room.
Matt pulled me out of the chair so I just smiled at him.
"English." Matt replied translating me rice.
Vanessa looked at me waiting for my answer.
"History." I answer. I have memorized my schedule.
"You're the only one who can be separated." Vanessa said as Matt stopped spooning.
"Are you all English?" I will ask. He nodded.
"You're the only one Zein. Do you want to watch over you?" Matt suggested staring at me.
"No, it's okay. What are you!" I laughed disobediently.
I admit I shivered. I also admit that I took a long time to crush Matt, he's just really numb.
After we ate, Mia just woke up with her eyes still full.
We sat in front of him and Jerome and Dave had just come out of their room, obviously just waking up.
"Are you feeling okay?" Dave asked sitting down next to Mia as well.
"Y-Yes. Thank you." sambit nito.
My mouth was itching to ask but I restrained myself. He may be surprised and he may not be able to speak yet. I know he saw the people behind that infamy.
"Can you really come in?" I asked Mia who was already wearing a blouse.
It stopped wearing but also immediately recovered and smiled at me.
"You're the one I'm worried about. You're the only one who can be separated from us." he said.
"What are you! I can do it myself. I can do karate." biro ko.
At noon, it was very hot as I walked to the far building alone. There were very few students scattered because it was class time and I knew I was late.
I hurried to walk and ignored the stares of the people. What is their problem? Haven't they moved on with the idiots going into this school? Psh.
I reached the silence in our room. We don't have a teacher yet. I bow in awkward feeling because everyone is staring at me. I bent down to sit at the end.
"Late? It's really your courage."
I looked at the person next to me and was shocked that this was the woman in the CR. Her red lips and black eyes. His gaze was frightening.
"Just thank you and Supremo didn't catch you." he said shakily before looking back at his notebook.
My eyes widened when I saw what he was drawing.
Nail?
Mia's Point of View
I was restless as I sat in the chair between Jerome and Dave. They all focused their attention on the teacher speaking in front, Matt and I were the only ones who were restless.
"Do you think he's okay?" I asked Matt who was seriously looking outside.
he didn't answer and I knew he was nervous too. Zein is alone in that subject plus she's still a woman even though she's an amazon.
I was sweating again as I remembered everything that had happened before. You red -haired man smiled at me.
-flashback-
I am currently looking outside. Math subject is boring. Psh.
My forehead furrowed when suddenly a red -haired man appeared next to me, never mind he was outside the window. He smiled at me.
It has earings that almost all parts of his ear have. it is white and has a pointed nose. Tall and wide body.
I couldn't take my eyes off him. I couldn't even turn to Zein who had called me earlier. He stood there for a few minutes and a smirk flashed on his lips again. Terrible.
it happened quickly and he disappeared from my sight and there was a man tied to the chair. I was shocked so I couldn't help but hug Zein and cry.
-End of Flash Back-
Who is she? Did he just do that to confuse me and have them put the man in that chair? why did they do that? What do they want?
"Miss Almia Mendez? Are you with us?"
All the blood rushed to my face because of the embarrassment that our teacher had been talking to me for a while.
"Sorry." I politely apologize.
Dave held my hand so I couldn't help but look at him seriously looking ahead.
