          "'Cuz I win again, and I win again and I win again---"

          The first rays of light entered the room through the ajar windows. On the bed, a female teen groaned when the phone continued to ring. She recognized that ring tone even from a mile away. She takes the phone and looks at the screen, it was a call from none other than her friend--- Christian Slay.

          'Damn, what a way to slay my sleep Chris.' She thinks as she answered picks up the call. At the side the bed was a mirror, she then examines herself with her half lided midnight blue eyes--- at her cheek a drool already dried up and she had a bad case of bed hair.

           "Gail, you're gonna be late! It's 7'oclock you---"

             Christian was panicking--- and swearing--- at the other side of the line, it took a couple of seconds for 'Gail' to understand what he was currently talking about.

             "Chris, what time is it?!" She half screamed and half asked. Standing up and found her alarm clock that was at the other side of the room.

              "Duh, it's already seven! Haven't you listened to me?!"

               Gail reads the time at the clock It was already 7:05 a.m. Great.

               "Call you later, I'm going to take a quick shower."

               "Girl, ya' need to fix that. Make it by 7:45. The---"

               She abruptly ends the call and dashed to her bathroom to take a shower. A minute later she came out looking fresh, her lavander hair was damped, and pale skin flushed.

               Immediately, she changes into her school uniform and a white coat with the insignia of the Union Academy. Bringing a black bag and a couple of folders in her arms, she was already out of the Union Classroom Dorm.

               "Breakfast can wait later." Gail mutters as she sat down in the train. Skipping breakfast was the only choice to arrive on time for school. She has to bear with it until she arrives at the classroom.

                  Kyoya looks outside of the car, the scenery changing everytime as the car continued to accelerate. Beside him was Kaye who had been reading some documents for a while now. It's been at least thirty minutes since they left from the Knight Estate.

                 They just entered the property of the Union Academy. A prestigious school located at the mountains. Its famous for its top quality education and tremendous support from different connections. However the academy had its own darkness.

                The passion for dominance and achieving the top spot. It was the main goal for the students that came and studied at the Academy.

                Which caused at least ten percent of the Academy students could only graduate every year. The ones that graduated from the Academy would turn successful and famous. While the unlucky ones are expelled.

                Since the Academy was built to dominate the top, it had the top forty-two geniuses every year. And it stayed like that since the start of the Academy's founding. It has been the hierarchy of the school.

                  The top forty-two are divided in twenty-one pairs--- a White Perfect and Black Perfect is a perfect pair. The White Perfects handle the students' behavior and the Black Perfects handle the students' discipline.

                  White Perfects would need to follow the rules and orders in order to handle a student, even if it's an emergency. They have to finish the paperwork before they have to handle the students.

                   Black Perfects do not have any rules to follow nor orders when it's an emergency. They handle the tough jobs and dirty ones all the time.

                 At the same time, they're also called 'Officers'. All Perfects have their own leaders, the presidents of the White Perfects and Black Perfects. In other words--- the President of the Student Council Committee and the President of the Disciplinary Committee.

                  Underneath them were the special rank students. Also known as the 'Special Students'. Whom were granted a title by a Perfect by using their own talents either academics or sports.

                  Lastly, the school was divided by the 'Elite Division' or 'Commoner Division'. Elites are rich, where they get more benefits of than a Commoner student. However, this does not apply to the Union Classroom.

                   The top students do not need to care what division they came from, they can be either Elite or Commoner but they have the most powerful authority in school, other than the Principal himself. They can do whatever they want and they get the best treatments in school.

                    After all, winner takes all.

                   "Kaye, you mentioned that you're the only Black Perfect." Kyoya looks at his cousin, Kaye stops reading the documents and raised a brow at him.

                    "And?"

                    "Is the title of a Black Perfect difficult to attain?"

                    Kaye rubs her temples using her right hand, releasing a soft sigh coming from her lips.

                   "Obviously it is difficult. However, a normal student would think that you've already obtained the highest position but it's hell." She continues. "I have different values and the White Perfects believe in their own values too. They maintain peace, while I have to maintain order and justice. In layman terms--- I play as the bad cop while the White Perfects play as the good cop."

                   There was a silent pause after what Kaye said. Both cousins simply looked outside the tinted windows, the Academy's building coming into the view.

                   "Then what's the reason why did you choose me to become a Black Perfect?"

                   "I simply did not want to see another white coat in the room."
