Perdition High

THE RULERS

The need to go to the bathroom wake Sky up from his sleep and that's also the only time he notice he was alone in the room 'where's Zane?' he thought and look around but since he really need to go to the bathroom he first just rush in there and was startled when he came out to see Zane laying near the door 'what the fuck is he doing there?' he went near him and saw him sleeping deeply but one thing that caught his attention was Zane's face, he obviously looked tired

"hey Zane wake up" Sky tried to wake him up

"Zane wake up" he shook him a little harder this time until Zane finally opened up his eyes

"what are you doing here?" Sky asked him after helping him up

"I went out for fresh air and--" Sky can see the hesitation in Zane's eyes

"what happened?" Sky

Zane hesitated for a while before finally opening his mouth and telling Sky everything that just happened to him and it really scared Sky. They are in a place they don't know where and being surrounded by people they've never met, the whole place just gives them uneasiness

"what do we do?" Sky asked silently

"I also don't know" Zane

'Yes, we wanted to rebel against our parents, especially me, we wanted to get away from them even for just a while but this is not what we asked for. This is not the place we wanted to be' Sky thought silently blaming himself somehow why they ended up in that situation

Both attended their class the next day with not much of an option since they needed information. They need to know where that place is at least for them to know how will to get the hell out from there. It took them a week to learned that everything is free, from their foods to their clothes to their school supplies. Basically everything. Or so they thought at least. People's stare remained but at least only some but it's starting getting to get on Zane's nerves.

The two went their separate ways like usual in the afternoon and Zane was on his way back to their dorm when he felt this eerie feeling, it's like there's an invisible force that stopped him, he then notice that it wasn't just him but everyone in that hallway stopped moving except that only man, the one and only person exhibiting the aura of killing if anyone moves suspiciously around him. His presence is enough to suffocate and kill anyone and his stare is enough to make you tremble in just a second. When he pass by him, his knees almost gave up on him and he don't even understand how is that even possible 'how is it possible for a person to suffocate anyone with only his presence?' he thought before he composed himself up and the only thing he did after that was run to their dorm without looking back but before he can even reach the dorm building he again bumped with something, more like someone

"damn I'm so sorry" Zane apologized and help the girl stood up

"I'm so sorry" the girl just shook her head

"it's alright" she smiled

"you look bothered and scared" she said looking intently in Zane's eyes which again made him feel chills

He didn't answer her, he just look at her 'what should I even respond to her?' he was about to ignore her question when she said something that caught his curiosity

"that man is the one ruling this place" she said

"huh?" Zane looked at her confused

"that man you saw in building 2 was the man ruling this school" she again said

'How does she even know I came from building 2 and the fact that it was the thing that's actually bothering me right now?' this totally scared the hell out of Zane
