[A Dark Secret Lies Upon This Academy]

[Chapter 10]

To be said, Wilbur is mildly surprised when he saw Techno walking in to his exam room.

'Huh, okay I guess.' Wilbur shrugged and continued walking. He sat on an empty chair and tapped the table with his finger in a rhythm.

Wilbur looked around at the silent room. There's only him, Techno, Eret, Dream, and Karl. What an empty room. Probably it's because he came in early.

Karl. A weird guy. He's fascinated with time travel and claims that time travel is possible.

Sometimes, he'll just disappear for 1 or 2 days and came back wearing a multicolored hoodie and an odd symbol in front.

Wilbur once confront him and Karl.. freaked out.

Also, his memory is bad. Like that kid who has two colored skin. What's his name? Oh yeah, Ranboo. Wilbur is now worried at how they'll do in the exams with such awful memory.

Talking about exams, the room is now more full with students. And no one is talking to each other, all focused on their own books-

Wait, hold on. Shit, he could've revised for few minutes. Instead, he's just spacing out like an idiot.

Andddd, the teacher is here. Mr. Redd, his favorite teacher. Oh, how wonderful.

"Alright, close your books. Everyone is here. It's time for exams." Mr. Redd clapped his hands, as the students put their books away.

The teacher gave them the exam sheets and sat back at the teacher's desk. Observing the people.

To be honest, that's really making him pressured. And he's so not used to be under pressured.

But performing under pressure is very useful when you're-

Okay, Wilbur is getting distracted.

He shook his head lightly and scanned the numbers.

He mentally cringed, what does it mean? Wilbur skipped the first question, hoping he can answer the next one.

The next question is related to the first.

Almost every question is like that.

He is fucked.

"Time's up. Come put your sheets on my desk, one by one." Mr. Redd said.

Wilbur's eyes widen in fear, just few more minutes. His writing started to get messy from his trembling hand.

Somehow, he felt congested. Why is breathing suddenly so difficult. Doesn't matter.

Just one more number.

And done!

He jolted up his chair and walked in a fast pace. He laid down the sheet.

Oh wow, breathing felt easier now! Wilbur sighed in relief.

'It ain't much but it's honest work.' Wilbur thought as he followed Techno from behind. "Boo." Wilbur tickled his twin. Techno jumped and punched him in reflex.

"Ow, remind me to never surprise you again." Wilbur rubbed his shoulder.

"I did that out of spite." Techno giggled.

"Same ol' Techno. By the way, how is the exam?"

"I'd rather have a screaming Tommy beside me for 24 hours than doing those questions."

"Yeah, it's that bad." Wilbur sighed. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the Dream team, and his friends coming towards them.

"How was it, you two?" Eret said with a smirk.
