I ended up taking my spot in between two boys named Fridge and Spencer. I played with a ring I had on my left hand as I waited for our Principal to come in. I had the ring since the car accident that killed my dad and the day I lost my vision.

"Look. I'm sorry, okay?" Spencer said talking to Fridge. They were talking about something but I didn't care. They were talking right above my ear. They argued until the principal walked in.

"Well, this is a fun group. Welcome to detention"  he said as he stood in front of us and Spencer had something to say because the principal called on him "Yes, Spencer?"

"I wanna say I am sorry," Spencer said and I smiled. No way was that doing anything.

"Thank you," Principal said and I smirked

Bethany also wasn't happy "Principal Bentley, all I did was make one-"

"Bethany, please. You're all here for a reason. You know what it is, but this is what you should be thinking about: who you are.... in this moment, who you want to be. You get one life, you decide how you're gonna spend it. Fortunately,  there is no better place, than detention. Get up, everyone. Let's go." Principle Bentley said and I stood up carefully.  I saw the blurs of colour walk past me so I followed after, careful not to trip anyone.

I followed them until we came to a stop. The sign on the side of the door had written letters which I couldn't read so I ran on fingers over the Braille and I found we are in the basement.

"We're turning this into a new computer centre. But before we do, it has to be cleaned. All of these newspapers are bound for the recycling plant but they have to be properly prepped before they go. It seems the staples have to be removed. Whatever you don't finish today, you finish tomorrow" Bentley said 

"But tomorrows Saturday" Fridge said

"Yeah, I don't think that's gonna work," I think Bethany said but I was quite sure 

"Because I wouldn't play football?" Martha said 

"You do realize I cant see tiny things like that!" I said 

There was a moment of silence until Spencer said something "That's fair" then there was shuffling but I didn't know what it was

"So I suggest, you get started. Choose your weapons" Bentley said grabbing something. "Use your cane Lilith there are plenty of things you could hurt yourself on or with. And we don't want to get sued" the last part he said genuinely

°•°•°•°•°•°•

I ended up hating the entire time I was down here because I had so many paper cuts, stabbings from the staples or the staple remover and I ended up kicking something and hurt my toe pretty bad too.

I was mindlessly removing staples with Martha and Spencer while the others are doing, lord knows what.

"Hey, why the hell would they need a bowling ball?" Fridge asked from somewhere in the room

"Seriously, no reception! Can this day get any worse?" I heard Bethany grumble from somewhere

I turned my eyes to where I heard the noise from "Are you going to help, or are you too pretty?" I asked her but then I went pull out a stapler but I stabbed myself pretty hard to the point I think I felt the blood.

"I'm too pretty" Bethany replied

I sighed the sucked my finger trying to find a fist aid kit as I moved my fingers around. I didn't find anything I used my cane as I looked around but didn't find any small plastic box. I was close the door when I found a box and thank god when I opened it it had band-aids.

When I walked back I saw a bright light coming from my right and didn't know what was going on.

"At yo blind girl want to play?" Fridge asked as I walked over.

I shook my head as I answered "Can't. I wouldn't be able to do anything either way. Plus we have work to do, and honestly, I don't wanna be here tomorrow"

I heard Bethany scoff loudly beside me "You're worse than staples girl" she said and I scrunched my brows in confusion and anger.

"We can help you." Fridge said and I sighed. Why am I agreeing to this?

They handed me a controller as I spoke "If we get in more trouble I am blaming you." They helped me select a character named Blake Antovon, a Russian assassin. Weird but cool.

"Welcome to Jumanji!" The machine said and I jumped slightly

All of a sudden some drums started to play and I began to have a sick feeling in my stomach. I really hope they were messing with or I am going insane.

"What's going on?" Bethany asked and then there was a green sparking light even I noticed even if it was really blurred and I jumped back.

"I think it's shorting out!" Spencer said 

"Guys what's happening?!" I yelled scared. Just then they all started to panic about something and I had no idea what was going on. God I feel so scared

"What is happening Fridge and Spencer?!" I asked waiting for an answer but then I saw a bright green light and everything went white.
