"Huh...?" was the first question I asked once I landed inside the school. I was looking for where the supposed 'sniper' was, only to find a camera placed on a tripod with a light built into it. That was what I thought it was at least, until I leaned over and looked over at the knob that was on the side of the camera. Its setting was on 'Low'... that was odd, shouldn't it be on its highest setting?
That question would be answered when that knob then turned itself to 'Max', while turning to face me directly!
"It's remote controlled?!" I shouted in shock, then trying to evade its coming blast of light. Oh man, me trying to dodge light? Anyone who paid some attention to science class knew that was impossible, so that silly effort only ended up with me getting hit by the laser regardless. It was laughable how I thought that was a good idea, why didn't I just try to push the camera out of the window? It was too late to try that idea now, so I was forced to deal with my consequences, and those consequences being... a minor burn? It wasn't even minor, rather just the hairs on my weeks-unshaved arm getting singed!
There clearly had to be a lapse in my judgement. There was no way this could possibly have taken down Sora! It couldn't even harm me, so if that was all it could do, I thought it would be the best idea to just ignore it and try to find the real source.
I moved down the halls and away from the camera. The rest of Maguro High was left for me and the SAT to explore. This school was so massive that it would take at least an hour to search it from top to foundation for these criminals, and unlike the SAT, I wasn't very skilled at searching, so I could only lurk around and hope to catch signs of life.
"There! Hey!" I then shouted when I turned the corner, only to find one of the very people I was looking for: The tall masculine figure, the decorated pins, there was no doubt about who it was! Stronzo! "Stop right there you murderous scum!"
My name calling, to my surprise, didn't turn out to be very effective in stopping him, and so another chase was underway. By now I was used to both chasing and running away, but what I wasn't used to was the layout of the school. I had only been to the school a total of three times while Stronzo was here for easily longer than I have.
I managed to keep some pace with him through the first few hallways. The third floor was pretty simply constructed to make it easier for new students to navigate. This was the same case with the second and first floors, but I would never get to see those floors in time to catch Stronzo.
Just when I was about to grab a hold of his robes, I felt a sudden force keep me frozen where I was! I was stuck in place while Stronzo fled into an elevator just at the end of the hall. Once the elevator door had closed, I was freed from the constraint, though not-so-much 'freed' entirely.
The neighboring elevator's door would open, revealing the two from earlier! Jen and Steve stepped through the door and into the hallway. "Ayyy, if it ain't that annoying bottom feeder of the rejects!" Jen would say, placing her foot in the middle of where the elevator doors close so it would be kept open. Meanwhile, Steve walked forward to greet me
"I don't believe it, you actually followed us, Slippy! That's some crazy guts for someone like you to pull off."
"You're right.. I was actually pretty scared to follow." I said while clenching a fist. "I would have probably done the same thing I always do, but you guys crossed the line of what turns a coward like me into your worst enemy. You made the mistake of killing what were the only people that made me feel like a human... but you guys neglect to see that and instead treat me as a monster.
"So if it's a monster you want..." I then lit my body back up to its full strength. "...then let's start this monster cage match!"
"Oh my god you are so acting like a stereotypical anime protagonist, I am cringing my ass off right now!" Jen rolled her eyes with a nonchalant laugh. While Jen seemed to not be taking my power seriously, Steve was quite the opposite.
