Hell

How we meet

        "We have been through this 10 times Austin, we will not recruit any of the transfer students so they have to bear our nightmare, if and only if they approach us will they be able to join, no other way." I said as we were walking to greet the transfer students. When he thought I was out of earshot Austin said, "I want him dead by sundown." After 10 minutes of waiting around Eryk saw the busses arrive. Well time for this to start again, I thought as I walked towards the center of the stairs that lead up to the main campus.

          "Come on!!!! I've known you for like 2 days! Why won't you tell me your name yet." Said the brat I was forced to sit next to. "I told you just call me Silver." I said. "COME ON just tell me your name plz, plz, plz, plz, plz, plz, plz, plz, plz, plz!!!!" She complained. If this continues until we reach the campus I might go insane, I thought to myself. "Fine my name is... oh look we arrived." I said. We looked out the window and saw a single figure walking towards the stairs leading to the campus. When we got off the bus I was pushed to the front so I got a good look at him. He was about 6'6" wearing a black trench coat and he seemed to have a guitar case on his back, but the strangest thing was his hair and eye color. He had white hair and blood red eyes (must've been some of those weird contacts). "Welcome to Hell, you will be going here for the next 12 years if you chose to do so, as it is your first day here I will lead you to your guides and I'll take a small group of you as well. I would tell you my name but it would be wasted knowledge seeing that most of you will not see me anymore." He said as his gaze shifted through the audience until it settled on me and we locked gazes with each other as if he wanted me in his group. "Follow me." He said and turned away. That's when I heard the whispers "So he's the one... My brother told me to stay away from him..." I just stood there until I found myself hearing angry shouts from the top of the stairs. All of the transfer students rushed to the top and were there in time to see him surrounded by a group of bikers swinging bats at him. "You are a worthless piece of shit. That's all you ever were and ever will be." The guy who seemed to be the leader of the bikers shouted as he swung his bat at him. Somehow he caught the bat and managed to force the man to the ground. "I thought I told you and your little possy here to clear out of my school yesterday, mate." The guide said. All of the sudden one of the bikers charged at me and tried to rip off my shirt but somehow a knife ended up impaling him to the ground, slowly bleeding out. I looked at the guide and his trench coat was open and I saw knives lined up in rows so I knew that the guide threw a knife over 150 feet and still managed to hit his target. "Out of my school and away from the transfer students or risk getting me angry." The guide said as rage filled his eyes. All the bikers drove away and the one that was stabbed with the knife threw it on the ground and screamed, "I will be back for her. She will be mine!" The guide walked over and picked up the discarded knife and asked "Are you ok?" "Y...yes sir" I manage to mumble out. He smiles and looks at the crowd of students and yells "What're you waiting for, your guides are waiting!" All of the students practically trampled over each other trying to get away from him. After the trample group had left, only 4 transfer students remained and another man wearing a trench coat went to stand by the guide. "My name is Eryk, this fine gentleman standing next to me is Ryan." said the guide with red eyes, "What are your names?" "My name is Lili." Said the brat I was forced to sit next to, why oh why could she of not run off with the rest of the crowd I thought. "My name's Elizabeth and let me tell you if you ever try to pull something like that again I will call the police." Eryk and Ryan just smiled as if they just heard a joke. "Name's Tod, nice to meet y'all." Finally I spoke, "You can call me Silver..." I said as I started to blackout, the last thing I saw was Eryk catching me and carrying me to the parking lot.

         "Where you gonna take her?" asked Ryan. "My estate and gonna put her in one of the guest rooms. I'm guessing that she just blacked out from stress and needs a couple hours of sleep." I answer as I strap her into the passenger seat of my black 1967 Chevy Impala, "You should be able to show them around the campus without trouble right?" "EXCUSE ME!" Lili screamed, "You ain't taking her anywhere without us tagging along!" "Ok" I answer, "Mind driving them Ryan I need some peace and quiet." He nods and herds the screaming Lili into his truck, but just to make me mad, he calls me on speaker so Lili can complain. "I bet your estate is gonna be smaller than the one that we saw on our way here, it was a three story mansion. We should be able to laugh at yours compared to that one." She laughed then shouted, "That one I bet your estate is smaller than that one. Yours is definitely smaller than... Why are we stopping at the gates? What are you doing... THIS IS YOUR ESTATE HOW CAN YOU AF... " I hung up the phone as she started screaming. After driving up and parking in the garage I told the group, "You can use the pool in the backyard or the firing range just please be silent so my neighbors don't complain." I say. "YOUR WHAT... " Lili starts screaming but Tod covers her mouth and asks, "Y'all know where I can get some duct tape for little miss piggy?" Me and Ryan laugh and I walk inside carrying Silver. I put her in a third floor bedroom. After I lay her on the bed, I look at her in detail. She is around 5'4" and has black hair and silver eyes. I leave the room to let her rest to look for the rest of mine and Ryan's new students. I find them in the backyard by the firing range, with Lili having a taped mouth and Ryan and Tod seeing who's a better shot with snipers. I really wish him luck knowing what a good shot Ryan is. "Peace and quiet," said a familiar voice in my head. "Yes it is, and for once we got students that don't complain." My eyes drift to Lili, "Well almost all don't complain." I walk up to Elizabeth who is staring at Ryan nonstop. "Can I ask you to do a favor for me?" I ask. She stares at me suspiciously. "Depends on the favor." I laugh. "All I need you to do is go buy me three pendants one a moon, one a sun and one a bow and arrow." I smile "Can you do that?" She nods. "Good I will provide transportation and money but I need to focus on a project with Ryan." "What kind of project?" She asks. She shows that she has feelings for him to easily I thought to myself. "Teaching you four." I answer. Ryan walks over to us. "Want to show them something the pros can do?" He asks glancing at the mansion. I glance over and see Silver standing in the window. "Let's do it Ryan." I say and he sprints to the mansion and stands under the window. When he nods I run to him and he boosts me up past the second story and I run up the wall to the third story to stand on the windowsill that Silver was looking out of.

        Ugh, where am I and why does my head hurt so much, I think to myself. I look around the room and notice three things instantly. I am in a bed big enough for a family of seven to have space. I am not in the hospital and the fact that the doorknob is made of solid onyx. "I can't afford to stay in a place like this." I say as I walk over to look out the window to see the man named Ryan, Eryk and Elizabeth talking to each other. Then I saw Ryan run to the mansion and a few seconds later Eryk followed him. Then I heard a quick series of thumps and out of nowhere Eryk was staring at me through the window. He opens the window and smiles. "Welcome back to the land of the living Silver." He said. "Where am I?" I ask. "My estate," He answered, "Me and Ryan drove you four here since you will be housed here, you forgot to get a dorm and because it gives me and Ryan more chances to teach you." I laugh. "Your estate? You can afford to have solid gemstones as doorknobs?" He seemed unaffected. "Gemstones are easy wait until you see my basement." He said as he looks over his shoulder to look at Lili who was struggling to pull tape off her mouth. "You will hurt yourself before that tape comes off." Eryk muttered to himself. "Anyway, time for you to join the others." He said as he grabbed my arm and jumped back. "ARE YOU CRAZY!" I scream as he pulls me out of the window with him. All he did was laugh as he caught me and landed safely on the ground. "To answer your question yes." He said. Ryan came over and started shaking his head. "This is a new level of crazy even for you mate," he states then gets a big grin, "I think I like this new crazy more than the old you." They both laugh. "ARE YOU CRAZY!" Yelled Lili then passed out from seeing a dot of blood on the tape. "Hopefully she will be out for the rest of the day." Eryk said and Ryan nodded. "We need to do something about her or she will not pass the final test." Ryan said and Eryk seemed to be thinking on a way to get her to pass. "Why does she need to pass?" I ask. "She is the weakest link of us all, if she moves on to the next level with us she will just hold us back." Eryk gets distant eyes and Ryan tries to ignore the question until finally he sighs and says, "If she doesn't pass there's a great chance she will not live." He said frowning. I just stood there as his words registered, we could die if we don't pass. Eryk grimaced as if he remembered something horrible. Ryan seemed to know what had him down. "She was not your fault." He said. Eryk just nodded and walked off into the mansion. "Who were you referring to?" I asked. "Two years ago we had one student who was second best in close combat to only him, but when it came to the final test... Let's say that none of us were able to ever live down a sight like that." Ryan said. I just stand there wondering what the final test could be.
