As i enter our school cafeteria with Crystal.
3 girls walked passed us.
Those three girls were Charlotte, Lei and most importantly Zhara.
"tsk..." Crystal said in a annoying way. I looked at her raising one eyebrow with confusion.
"are you really gonna ignore that slut?" She asked.
The person she was talking about was the girl in the middle, Zhara. was the smallest among them three. she had almond shaped eyes and black eyes. her hair was straight and had an average length, apart from mine which is black, long wavy hair.
"Watch your words Cris... She's still my sister." I warned her. She rolled her eyes upwards.
"What did you call her!" A familiar voice yelled aggressively. Me and Crystal spun our direction to the back and saw Lei glare at the both of us. While Zhara and Charlotte was behind Her.
Lei walked towards us while tying her brown hair high. trying to intimidate us.
"Her name is Zhara. And she's not a slut!" She pointed her finger on Crystal.
Crystal didn't mind her pointing her finger and kept glaring at her.
I pushed her finger away from pointing Crystal with the back of my palm.
"Just mind your own Business Lei."
I told her calmly.
She scoffed.
"Why are you treating her like this?"
"What do you mean?"
I asked. She started to laugh hysterically.
A lot of students looked at us.
"ughh they keep making a scene..."
"it's a good thing they're able to get away with it just because they're parents are rich."
The voices of the other students murmured through the whole cafeteria.
"Lei that's enough. What they said doesn't bother me at all. It's not like they were actually talking about me."
Zhara griped her arm and tried to pull her away from us.
"Oh hell yeah I was talking about you." Crystal exclaimed confidently.
I looked at her signaling.
"What are you doing?"
But she ignored me and continue to glare at them again.
"You guys never stop fighting do you?"
A girl approached us.
"But they insulted Zhara first!"
Charlotte said.
"As a Classroom President I'm going to warn you guys one last time."
"If you won't stop making a scene everyday I won't hesitate to tell the principal about thi-"
The bell rang loudly.
The other students ran back to their classrooms and all 6 of us was left in the cafeteria.
"Can we go back now? You guys have been glaring with each others for a while now..." The President said sarcastically.
"Let's go..." Zhara said and held both Charlotte and Lei's hand.
And I pulled Crystal's arm and went towards the cafeteria's back door.
"let's go to-"
Crystal Shrieked.
Lei pulled her long Auburn hair aggressively.
"What the hell!" I screamed. I tried take her clenched fist out of Crystal's hair but it made her shriek more. Crystal pushed me into the ground and I watched her fight back from Lei.
Crystal hits Lei's stomach successfully to loosen her grip from her hair and walked little step back.
Lei groaned in pain while covering her stomach. The president gave a face palmed expression.
Lei ran to Crystal and attacked her chest making her fall on the ground with me.
Crystal tried to stand up but I pulled her clothes down.
"Stop you'll make it worse."
I warned her.
"But... She gripped me firs-"
I shushed her lips with my finger.
I began to smell smoke coming from the back door.
"Hey! What are you sitting there for? Come on attack me again!" Lei yelled.
Charlotte and Zhara held both of her arm restraining her.
I looked around trying to find the source of smoke, And the front door gained my attention.
Both of the doors were the entrance of the smoke.
Lei paused. Surely she smelled the smoke too.
"There's a fire in the school..."
The president announced.
"What!?" Zhara and Charlotte said in unison.
I stood up and pulled Crystal up too.
"What the hell going on Harlyn?" she asked as she clean the back of her black and white skirt.
"What does it looks like? We're going to burn to death." I said with sarcasm.
"Ha Ha funny..." She responded with sarcasm mixed with worry.
"let's go." I said and went towards the 3rd door of the cafeteria that connects to the gymnasium. It was the only door that doesn't have smoke on it's other side.
As I twist the door knob the door won't open. I began to twist it repeatedly but it still won't open.
"Let me do it." Crystal volunteered a moved forward. She twisted the knob again but it still wont open.
"Sh*t! We're trap." Crystal exclaimed.
I brought my phone out of my pocket and turned it on.
The others did the same.
There were no cell service. It was useless. So I thought of a plan in my head.
I ran to one of the cafeteria's tables and pushed it towards the door.
I spun my head towards the others.
"If you wanna get out of here, help me bang this door." I said.
They didn't hesitate to help and came towards me. Except for Lei. Just leaning towards the wall near us while crossing here arms together.
As we all grunt while banging the table on the door.
Sweat starts to build up on my forehead.
We all pushed harder and harder and harder. Then the door collapsed. We all goes outside in a hurry and-
My eyes widened.
There were bodies of students and staff around the gymnasium.
There were still signs if fire anywhere but only smoke.
"what the-" Zhara said in soft voice.
"there's no time to be stunned. We need to help them!" the president said.
She goes to one of the nearest students laying on the ground and checking his heart beat on his wrist.
The President goes to another one and checks their heart beat again.
And she goes again and again.
"No way..." the president murmured.
"What?" Zhara approaches her.
"They're all dead..." she looks at us with confusion.
We all went silent.
The fire started to grow quickly on the gymnasium.
"What's going on..." the president asked.
I sensed the ceiling was about to collapse.
"Hey president! Get awa-"
A loud thud hurts my ear.
Zhara started to scream with fear.
As I look back to the president...
There was a lot of blood leaking on the collapsed part of the ceiling.
I wanted to pull the collapsed part up and save her. But it was burning badly. We couldn't. We're just some 14 year old teenagers.
The blood also reached my uniform.
Creating blood stains all over it.
I see Zhara trembling in fear and trauma right from the corner of my eyes.
Then I felt someone pull me away. I looked on my side and it was Crystal being protective.
As I escaped my thoughts.
"We need to leave now..."
I warned.
"how ab...about them?" Zhara asked.
There's nothing we can do, they're dead..."
Zhara frowned.
We all had to accept it. They're all dead. If we don't leave just yet we would die with them on this pointless fire.
Alot of things were weird. There were a lot of smoke when we were in the cafeteria. But once we broke the door. The gymnasium had no fire nor smoke at all.
As if all we were experiencing is all a lie, a hallucination.
I kept fantasising it all together.
"She's right... There's really nothing we can do." Charlotte agreed.
Lei scoffed but I ignored her.
"let's use the fire exit there." I pointed out the fire exit door from a distance.
We all ran towards the door and opened it.
The sunlight hits my eye so I covered it wit my palm. As I take it off the city were-
The city was in ruins.
All of the building was either broken or collapsed.
We continued to go down from the stairs. As we reach the bottom we see a white woman figure walking towards us. It was like an angel. It was tall and had fair skin. Her white long dress was glimmering. Once she was near we noticed her pupils were pure white also. She had two tiny horns on the top of her head.
Her long straight gray hair were fluttering.
She stopped.
"Welcome survivors. I thought you guys would die easily. Congratulations on surviving the first wave (Game)." she said in a soft tone.
But what she said caught us immediately. Die easily?
"what do you mean?" Charlotte asked.
The white woman scoffed and burst in laughter.
"ahh I love the innocent one."
She said softly.
"I am Tiara, a Willproph, aka the moderator of earth 305 games." she announced.
We all stood still in silence.
