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.
