Pseudanthium

Part 2

"Welcome! Welcome! The chosen pupils of Easternburr High!" chattering filled the room,which supposedly is the meeting hall.

"Who are you!?" a girl,not just any girl, Yuri Mika, the twin of Tori Mika, said.

"I, my dear students, am Helena Gareth. The person who is going to guide you around here, the Elixir Castle" she says as she stands up to look at each and every one of the students.

She's a woman in her late 20's, quite an elegant yet a long tempered and cruel person.

"Let's go through everyone's name" Helena says as she takes out an IPad.

She giggles.
"Yuri and Tori Mika, the twins! It's a pleasure to meet you girls!"

"Shut the hell up, greasy old woman" Tori Mika snarled at the woman.

Yuri stared at her sister, concerned.

"No you" Helena smiles and looks back at her IPad.

"Ah, Eryn Koji! How decent by the fact that the daughter of a millionaire would be here! " she laughs.

"I have a questio-"

"Okay next one! " Helena cuts Eryn off.

"Oi! Hag! Why did you bring us here"

"Ah, Terreto Kyle, Pleasant of such a low standard student to be here" Helena continued.

"You're just some other old scared hag,maybe that's why you tied us all up" Kyle continues.

"Shut up Kyle, nobody wants to hear some bullshit coming out of your dirty crusty mouth" a guy, Ashton Cameron, argued.

"You picking up a fight?!" Kyle said back.

"Shut it boys! Quit being immature" Rosata Kai, said.

Helena sits on her chair.

"Okay kids, I'm tired of hearing all this mumbo-jumbo! Now-"

"Where's my phone?! " Derek Jameson says.
Everyone then started complaining about their missing cellphones.

"Kids!" everyone stared at Helena.
"I programmed them okay? Chill no biggie" she said as she takes out a box under her desk and puts it on her table.

"Wait, what did you do to them?" Noemie said.

"Yeah!" Hailey says.

"It's about time you two woke up" Celeste Aiden, points out.

"Doesn't matter, what did you do to them? " Noemie continued.

"You see... These are called students notebooks, I hired a programming team to programme  your phones. I kinda adjusted the use of it" she giggles.

Helena then started going to the students and passing them their own phones which are now referred as, student notebook.

"Clay Warren, you're smart right? Save your tied classmates I'm gonna go to my lounge now, some stupid human called for a meeting!" Helena says as she walks out leaving them alone.

"Ugh, that woman! " Clay struggled.

"Terreto do you have a lighter?" Celeste asks.

"Tch, yeah so what?" Terreto Kyle says.

"Use it to free yourself and help us out of here" Jerome Haday says.

"Ugh, yeah I can't handle being tied up! " Clay continues.

Terreto frees himself and helps the other students.

"Gee thanks big guy" Yuri smiled.

"Shut up skank" Terreto looks away.

"Tch, man whore" Tori mumbled.

"Slut" Terreto said back.

"Okay okay please stop now" Rosata says.

"Woah, it says in our notebook that we're assigned to solve the murder mystery of this place" Gavin Rakes finally speaks up.

"Yes, If we can figure out who and where the murderer is, we'll be set free" Celeste continues.

"But what if we don't succeed?" Caesar Callahan blushed, bracing himself to say that.

"I'm positive we are going to!" Yuri says.

"The murderer gets to choose a theme? And this year's theme is Floral" Derek said.

"What's that suppose to mean?" Ashton says.

"Well it means the murderer commits the murder, and use flowers as a sign of clues maybe?" Gavin points out.

"This is nonsense" Terreto says.

"We should all be careful at least... " Caesar Callahan says.

"If one of you here is the killer just tell us and we'd get outta here" Ashton says.

"The killer isn't among us" Celeste says.

"Correct! Instead the killer is hiding in the depths of this castle" Gavin says.

"S-so that means we're the victims?!" Caesar says.

"Uh, calm down, surely we'd all be able to fix this together" Hailey says to Caesar, who's panicking his butt off.

"Hopefully" Noemie says.

"Don't say that" Ashton says.

"O-okay sorry" Noemie smiles, terrified.

Noemie stares at Ashton.
His straight and cold face, he's so cold you'd be scared of him even if he's miles away from you.

Noemie stared at Ashton's eyes in awe.
His green eyes gleaming and exploring around the room they're currently in.

"Guys we've all been classmates before-"

"Girl aren't we all classmates" Clay cuts Yuri off.

"Uh, sorry I don't pay attention much" Yuri smiles.

"It's cause you're too focused on your idiotic sister" Terreto rolls his eyes.

"That's my fucking younger sister you're talking to" Tori says.

"No time for fighting guys. Y'all can do it when we escape outta this hell hole castle" Noemie says.

"Agreed" Eryn says.

"Well isn't it the spoiled brat" Ashton says to Eryn.

"Keep your mouth shut man whore" Rosata says.

"What are you guys, a couple? Hah! Pathetic human beings" he continued.

"Enough arguing already" Hailey says.
