It all began at 6:00 P.M. on a certain day. A text message from the school informed us that the entire dormitory wouldn't have water for quite a while, due to trouble with the water department. I turned the faucet to confirm, and nothing came out.

"Huh?" Hashimoto said.

"When was this?" Sato asked confused.

"I don't remember this." Hirata muttered.

Students and teachers stared and looked around confused. This never happened. The teachers don't remember the school having trouble with the water department. Before anyone can comment more, the screen went blank for a few seconds and then lighting up with words across the screen.

"This scene will be showing you the future. Please rest assure that everything that is shown and will be shown is accurate and true. This scene will serve as a break between two major viewing that you already watched. After this, the viewing will resume."

"The hell?" Ibuki eyed the screen.

"This projector is giving me the creepy vibes." Karuizawa shivered.

The teachers looked at each other, exchanging uneasy expression.

" This projector appeared to have a mind on its own." Ayanokoji muttered to himself. He eyed the projector, carefully observing its structure and the wires connected to it.

Sakayanagi looked lost in thought. "This seemed to be turning more interesting. Fufufu." She laughed quietly.

It sounded as though the repair work wouldn't finish until the early morning. In the meantime, the school was taking the necessary steps to provide for its students. It would hand out two liters or more of water in the cafeteria as needed, although the text warned us that the cafeteria was expected to be crowded as a result.

The convenience stores were temporarily unavailable, but the Keyaki Mall would provide free drinking water. However, we were prohibited from bottling the water and taking it home. That really wasn't an issue for me, though.

"Looks like a pain in the ass." Komiya said.

"No water?!" Yume asked shocked.

"What will happen if the drinking water runs out?" Shinohara asked.

" Looks like even a water problem is not an issue to you." Sudo said to Ayanokoji.

"I may have extra water or I'm concern about another thing." Ayanokoji answered.

This probably be more of a problem for the girls though. With all of their business in the bathroom and all." Hashimoto said.

The girls made a face of grimaced, already imagining the scenario.

No, my big problem would be the toilet. Even though there was water in the tank, we had to be cautious, since we could only flush once.

"And you happened to be having-" Kondo never finished his sentence when Ibuki kicked him.

"Don't finish that sentence. You're disgusting." Ibuki glared at him.

"You don't need to kick him, Ibuki-san." Hiyori smiled.

"Would all of ya shut it?!" Ryuuen scowled at the noise they are making.

The tea in the refrigerator should have been enough for one cup, which could get me through the day. As for dinner, I'd cook something without using any water. I'd just started prepping dinner when my phone suddenly rang. The moment I went to answer it, it stopped after two rings.
