Benriesan Socialis

5

"Change of plans." Nut said during the next Socialis meeting.
Pheebs, in a bad mood, groaned, "You are not the damned leader, Nut. Let Hen lead this meeting!"
"Let her talk." Benrie said, almost falling asleep.
"Why not Ely talk?" Isabel asked, looking innocent.
"Why can't I talk?" Netanya said, obviously hurt.
All of them looked at each other.
"Because you've been doing it all the time?" Kaitlyn asked-said, scared that Nut would go kaboom.
"I want to talk, so I am doing it. Any violent objections?" Netanya sneered, but inside she was puzzled at how they were acting towards her. Nut sighed sadly to herself. She really didn't understand what was happening.
"If shalks..." Hen murmured, her words slurred with sleep. "Thiget done fater... more... efficient..."
"She has been up all night coming up with this. Well, Ely and I have too but she did way more than us so she's tired and I'm sure you understand that."
"Julisten..." Hen muttered, her eyes half closed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nut's phone beeped as Ely continued to explain the second phase of their plan. She sighed and took out her phone.
Is this the right time to be contactin' ya? The girls and I need to ask a little favor.
Ever since the new plan had been placed into action, Rebecca had been treating her much nicer.
I guess you could say that I can spare a few minutes. Nut groaned as she typed out the message, trying to stick with a 'pleasant' tone. What service do you require?
Oh, I just need you to meet me after school in the canteen tomorrow. We'll chat more then.
Ok. Nut typed uncertainly.
"Oh, and Nutty is going to introduce you to a new Socialis member on behalf of Hen!" Ely concluded before bouncing back to her seat. Her words cut off Nutty's trend of thought so she figured she'd just get the introduction over and done with. She put aside her phone and said, "Introducing to you Brea Tan! Brea, this is the Socialis and I need you to take an oath."
Brea nodded nervously as Nut continued, "Repeat after me: I, insert your name,"
"I, in-Brea Tan,"
"Swear on 5R,"
"Swear on 5R,"
"That I am 360% sure that,"
"That I am 360% sure that,"
"I will pledge my allegiance to the Socialis and obey their only serious rule,"
"I will pledge my allegiance to the Socialis and obey their only serious rule,"
"The rule is: All risks I take are mine and mine alone. Nobody is allowed to get hurt intentionally unless they have brought it upon themselves."
"The rule is: All risks I take are mine and mine alone. Nobody is allowed to get hurt intentionally unless they have brought it upon themselves... is that it?' Bre asked in a tentative tone.
"Ye...gositdon..." Hen said before promptly falling back asleep. Netanya's phone vibrated several times before it rang. Rebecca was calling her again. Nut hurriedly excused herself and picked up her phone.
"What is it, Rebecca?" she asked, trying to keep the anger out of her voice.
"You weren't responding to my messages."
"I am busy."
"Oh, fine. Be like that. You still contact Lynn, don't you?"
"Why?"
"I'll take that as a yes. I need you to pass a message for me."
"The message being...?"
Rebecca whispered her response, causing Nut to become very pale. As she repeated the message, hoping that she had heard wrongly, Ely's face darkened with fury.
"I-is that a-all?" Nut stammered.
"For now."
With that, Nut hung up. "Hen," she began, even though her friend was still asleep. "Do I have to do this?" Nut couldn't bear to hurt her friend. Did going undercover equate to being able to break the rule.

"Not going to school tomorrow?" Rynn asked in a teasing tone.
"Stop it, Rynn!" Lynn yelled furiously. She got up, went to her room and slammed the door behind her. Lynn was sick and tired of the constant teasing and word was that her favorite juniors had given up on her and gone to what Lynn had nicknamed the "Dark Side". She had revised a lot but there was a hole in her heart. It pained the studious girl not to go to school. If her juniors, some of her few friends, had betrayed her... Lynn couldn't bear to think about it. Hen, Ely and Nut were especially close with her and if they wanted to, they could dig up quite some dirt about her, not like she had done much wrong. They knew her well and could easily manipulate and twist the truth.
Anything up? She decided to send a message to their Minions group chat.
Nothing! Nut replied so quickly that in a conversation, it would have been very suspicious.
The sky or the ceiling Brea replied.
Hahaha
Really, nothing up. Why?
Don't lie to me. I know things.
I never knew that you were a stalker!
Please, Lynn. I don't have time for this. I am busy.
She tells everyone that.
Please, don't lie to me... If anything is wrong, just tell me...
Nothing is wrong. Don't worry.
Nut hated lying to her friends more than anything else. At least it hadn't been a face-to-face conversation, that would've been worse for Nut was a terrible liar.
Eleanor's phone beeped with a message and she took her phone out of her pocket to check. "What the hell!?" she exclaimed, squinting at the scream. "I tell you, Hen, this is a mistake. They are making us commit now!" Eleanor had received a message from Caila, requesting Eleanor to sabotage and frame a classmate and send Caila a video of what happened afterwards... by tomorrow, if not Eleanor would be 'so stuck in some dam shit'.
"What is it?" Henrietta asked, blinking sleep out of her eyes. Finally she had enough energy to talk properly.
"See this!" Ely proclaimed unhappily, shoving her phone towards Hen.
"Hey, Eleanor Tay! I need you to do me a slight favor to prove your loyalty, do you mind? Anyway, I need you to sabotage and frame one of your classmates, I don't care who, for something she did not do without the help of your friends to prove your worth. Take a video of the incident and send it to me by tomorrow or you'll find yourself so stuck in some dam shit! Thank you so much! ~Caila!" Hen read. "I can't believe the nerve of this girl!"
"Wait," Nut interjected. "How does she have your number!? They have mine because of debate and Rebecca but how do they have yours!?" Frankly, she was beyond shocked but she was trying to keep herself calm.
"I don't know." Henrietta said shortly, her chain of thought rapid-firing, considering all the possibilities.
"What do I do about this!? We'll deal with the number problem later!" Ely moaned desperately. "I don't wanna sabo anyone."
"I have an idea," Vera cut in. "We act. She said she doesn't care who. We took a oath on our rep. We frame ourselves. We use the Depression Service Centre to make the person depressed about being framed and... and... AND..." Vera rambled on and on in a very depressing voice.
"A quick question," Ely began, turning to Hen. "Does doing this undercover thingy mean that we are temporarily free from our oath?"
"Actually, I'm not sure.." Hen admitted. "We just do what we think we should do. X-infinity bang...! Yay...!" Hen finished not very enthusiastically.
"To be fair, we never really planned, we usually just had a rough idea and improvised..." Nut commented, shrugging. She had her own task to deal with... from Rebecca herself and Hen would probably be asked by Faith to do something. If Rebecca did not believe their truce, they were going to have a hard time because this seemed to be a divide and conquer strategy.
True enough, Hen's phoned beeped, and she opened her messages after whipping it out of her pocket.
"I got a shucking task from Faith if anyone is interested." She announced.
" I am." Vera replied.
