Who's Next?

Prologue

"One down," the person behind the speaker said.

Nasa loob kami ng gymnasium lahat. Hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa rin kami makapaniwala na 'yong mga taong kanina lang ay tumatawa ay patay na ngayon.

Tahimik lang akong nagma-masid at naghi-hintay. Lahat sila ay takot. Lahat ay hindi malaman ang gagawin. Lahat ay nangangamba at lahat ay naghi-hintay rin sa mga susunod pang pwedeng mangyari.

"Now, listen."

Napalingon kaming lahat sa estudyanteng sumigaw. He's a guy. I can't determine his year because of his actions. It looks like he's in vain or something. Naka-hawak siya sa ulo niya at nanlalaki ang mga mata. He's also crying.

But wait...

I think I saw him somewhere. He looks like he was out of his mind.

"Stop it! Stop that! I will... I will kill you all!" he shouted.

A creep bell rang. My body frozed. The game is now starting.

The game is about to start and one wrong answer will be equivalent to one person dying.

"Stop!" one of the student shouted. "We just want to study! Why are you killing all of us?! We didn't do anything to you! Stop! Just stop it!"

I know her. She's Dayzinne Valdemor. A cheerleader and a top student. Everyone loves her but I think not the one who's beyond the speaker.

They all stopped. No one dared to speak. Her co-student tried to stop her but she failed. Looks like, the girl is determined to stop the person behind the speaker ngunit mas mukha pang determinado ang tao sa likod no'n.

Lahat kami ay napa-hawak sa mag-kabilang tainga namin ng biglang tumunog ang bell na 'yon.

Muling nagka-gulo ang mga estudyante. May naghihilahan. May nag-iiyakan. May nag-aaway. May nag-sisigawan. Maski ang mga guro at ang mismong punong guro ay nagkaka-gulo.

"Let's get out of here!" one of the teachers said.

Lahat sila ay nagsama-samang lumabas ng gymnasium at sinubukang lumabas ng campus ngunit bago pa man mangyari 'yon ay kitang kita namin kung paano binagsakan ang dalawang estudyante ng kotse. Tumalsik pa ang mga laman at dugo nito kaya lahat kami ay napa-atras.

"No one's going out or you'll be dead. Now, students. Who's Next?"
