"Fit the cat bell...for it to end? what does that mean?" (Y/N) mumbled to herself with her hand to her hips while reading the big sign on the floor. Ichika asks the same question too as they look at each other.
"You three should change your outfits too, we don't know what will happen if we don't follow the rules, hurry up and change" The president with the grey mouse outfit reminded as he handed out the costume, making (Y/N) snickered. The three of them are quiet and still stiff, making the president's face red in anger.
"I said put it on! The school president is ordering you!" (Y/N) grabbed the costume, scanning it and throwing it in the president's face. "Shove it on your ass, president. We ain't gonna a bait." (A/N: now she gave you hints.)
"Why you!"Before the president of mouses can respond, the ground starts shaking alarming all of them. The part of the floor separated slowly reviling a cat. "The cat's here!..."
"A Maneki Neko?"
'Another symbol of luck huh? then why the hell does this happen?'
All didn't move nor make a single sound, all of their eyes are darted to the massive cat. The cat freezes..but suddenly its head sprang down and ate one of the students who wear a mouse costume. "What the fuck.."
The screams filled the room, as each of them starts running with their feet, afraid to get eaten by the giant toy predator. The cat's eyes watch them with fascination, excited to eat each of the mice that were dancing at the sight of it.
(Y/N), Ichika, and Shun started running and got trapped but the cat ignored them. "Ahh, I get it." (Y/N) picked up the fallen cat bell with a timer, "We have to shoot this bell to the cat's basket collar without getting munch, now doesn't that sounds like basketball?"
"We have 9 minutes and 30 seconds left, that's impossible!" The boy, Shun, added.
"It's team sports, we have to get everyone to play with us to survive. "
"This isn't going to be like that Daruma game earlier."The (H/C) girl reminded them which made the two of her friends a little better. The three of them have to survive, together.
"EVERYONE! we have to shoot this bell to the cat's collar ring...to end this game!" Shun shouted, alarming everyone who gets chased by the mouse mourning cat. One of the students who they assumed is a basketball player, shoots a ball on the mice's collar.
"Oh right, I think I can do It.." It sighed and smirked proudly. "Tanaka! Pass!"(Y/N) was doubtful about this, she doesn't have the full trust in the guy, but it's worth taking, the chances are 89/100, it's worth taking a shot. She has not known the guy much but she has seen him here practicing every day just to make a perfect shot, worth a try.
"Here!" She passes the ball, making the player jerk and grab the ball like a professional. She made his stance, creating a damn paragraph in his mind on how this was his faith, to shoot the ball in the cat's collar. He takes the shot, as everything goes in slow-motion, the ball slowly falls down to the ring, making the other's eyes widen in excitement.
"It's getting in!"
The time ticks, like it, said, everything slowdown. Unfortunately, the ball didn't enter the ring. It was stopped by the cat's gigantic paws. There was a pregnant pause for everyone who's in shock.
"I knew it..."
"Wait? Its hands can move too?!" The cat puts its stance and stretches its hand and throws the bell on the player who's now on the cracked walls with the bell on his abdomen. All of them look disappointed while some of them looked hopeless and just stand there and get swallowed by the cat.
It struck her, (Y/N) was right all the time, the way the daruma doll said they're the mice, it ironically said that they were meant to be eaten. It was the right decision to not wear the costume.
"Everyone! Take off those costumes! Only the mouse is getting attacked by the cat!" Shun also made the realization and told everyone to remove their costumes. As for (Y/N) she actually won't tell anyone about the targets and the costumes, if the cat is out mouses, it will eat another species, she won't tell because it was to keep the three of them alive, but she guesses that her friends weren't selfish as she is, she chuckled dryly.
All of the students who wear the costumes immediately took off their clothes and throw them. They look at the cat who's confused, and sit nicely on the floor, wondering where all its meals go.
"That'll keep us alive"
"DON'T FUCK WITH ME! You're the one who forces us to wear those fucking things!" An unnamed meal grabbed the president's collar and yell at him aggressively. He was pushed back at the president who looked at them with guilt in his eyes.
"I'm not blamed for all this!" Before he could say anything else, he was eaten by the cat, and the other one was much too for complaining.
(Y/N) stood there with stiffness and cautiousness in case of a predator hunting her, she was aware of a cat's attitude for she owned one too. "It will eat everyone because the mouses are all extinct! Now run or your asses became its munchkins!"
Everyone is getting targeted, the preys are dancing again, it made the cat wonder.
'I can't believe I'll say this but!' "We need to build teamwork! It's the only way we can survive!"
She had a smart strategy, she'll wear the mice costume in half that only her waste can be held, in case they need a distraction, she will put it on her shoulders back again, and if she needs to disappear, she just needs to fastly take the jacket off.
Nice plan, unfortunately...
"Ichika!" (Y/N) runs to her friend whom she finds was rolling to the ground. "Are you okay?" The girl didn't answer, instead, it looked at the bell anxiously. (Y/N) grabbed the ball.
"3 minutes left or we'll die.."The two of them looked at each other with despair, as they look up, they saw the cat that was ready to eat them.
"Haha, we're dying. uhh I love"
"Over here!"The cat's ears perked up, its mouth moves away from the two prey. They watch as they saw their friend Shun wearing the mouse costume "Nice one Shun!" The girl could almost die of happiness.
