Stan's P.O.V

"Don't do it,dude,we'll get caught."

I looked at my friend,Nico. He was sweating and had a worried look on his face. You see,we're trying to break in the faculty room. We just had to steal something very important. When did this start exactly? Well...it all started this morning. News were spreading about the notebook being found by a teacher. By notebook, I mean THAT notebook. The notebook that was left behind by the girl who found the boardgame in the school legends.

No one actually believes that stuff, and that goes the same for me. Everyone says they died mysterious deaths but we believe that it was obviously suicide or murder. But everyday life is the same. Boring. So I decided to find out about this little tragedy from 10 years ago. To see if it was real.

And that's where we are now. The school faculty room. According from one of my classmates,the notebook was held by our homeroom teacher and luckily, I saw him slip the notebook in his bag as I passed by the faculty.

Oh. I forgot. My name is Stan. Stan Wright. I'm just your average guy,goofing around school,getting into trouble out of boredom,sleeping during class and being lazy. I'm a first year in high school. Hey,don't get me wrong. Even if I am like this,I'm at the top of class,you know. I just think there's more to life,you know? What if I can make this boring reality go away? That's what I thought and so here I am,stealing.

Back to where we were earlier,well....

"Whatever,Nico. Leave me if you want. I can do this alone. I don't really mind detention." I told my friend.

"No way! I'm not letting you go alone!"

"Then shut up,we'll get caught if you make too much noise."

Saying that,I opened the faculty room door and looked around inside. No one was there. It was lunch break. I went over to our homeroom teacher's desk and found his bag on top. I zipped it open and took the notebook out.

"Sabrina Allen." I read. " So that was the name of the girl who died...."

"Hurry up,dude!" Nico said from the outside. "Lunch is almost over!"

I rolled my eyes. "Worrywart." As soon as I left the room,I saw a shadow near the halls.

"Sh*t,teacher's coming!" I said in a panic. I gripped Nico's hand and handed the notebook to him. We ran as fast as we could to avoid getting caught,luckily,we got away safe. We went to our classroom just right on time for our next class.

Later

"Ahhhh,thank god! School's over." I said,stretching my arms. "Time to go have club activities."

"That was close earlier,if we got caught,we'd had to have detention and worse,expulsion." Nico said,sighing in relief.

"Yeah,who cares! We got the notebook,time for the supernatural studies club to finally begin some real mystery activities!" I said,grinning as I stood out of my seat and went out of the classroom with Nico,heading to our clubroom.

As soon as we got there,we went inside only to be greeted by our friends' questioning.

"Hey,Stan! You got it,right?! RIGHT?!" My hyped friend,Summer said.

I put on a sad look and said,"I....I...."

Summer looked at me sadly,"You failed?!"

I immediately grinned and waved the notebook in front of her. "What do you think?"

"Omg,yes! Your the best,Stan! You sneaky little bastard!" Summer said,swiping the notebook and viewing it's contents.

"What? You didn't get caught?" Tyler asked. I shook my head. "Too bad." He added.

"Wow,so mean. Don't I get some kind of 'good job' from you?" I growled.

"No,stealing a notebook is easy. Even I can do it." Tyler remarked. I rolled my eyes,"Whatever,dude."

Tyler is a 2nd year-friend. He tells me he joined the club because he wanted to know about supernatural stuff but here he is acting all cold and mean. Like I care,though.

"Tyler's right! Stealing is such an easy task!" Shamira said,smirking. June glared at her making her stop. "W-well,it's not like I stole before...hehe..."

Shamira aka Shammie and June are siblings. June is the older brother,being in 2nd year. They have very different personalities.

"Stealing is bad,you know..." Mica told us with a disapproving look.

"W-we know but Mica,this notebook will help us in our supernatural researches! Also,I promise we'll give it back afterwards!" I reassured her.

Micaela smiled. "Okay then." Micaela is a 2nd year. She joined because she was interested in supernatural stuff too. She's really kind and quiet. She's popular too,she's called The Angel by everyone else. Ah,well,when you tease her she gets a little...well...fierce I guess.

Robin looked over at the notebook together with Summer. He had a look of amusement on his face. "Hey,guys! Let's start this research already!"

Robin is a 1st year like me and a friend of mine. He's like the joker of the club. A real positive guy.

As soon as Robin said that,we gathered at the clubroom table and all 8 of us sat down. We set the notebook down on the middle of the table and we all leaned in to get a closer look at the contents. I opened it and read the writing on the first page,

"How to acquire the Maze of Lives boardgame."
