You are either a "stand out", "school - uni - job", or "outcast".
First route, you're special, you're a spotlight, standing bright compares to shadows that dim. You are living life in cash and luxury. Happiness isn't 100% guaranteed, but surely, you will always be remembered, your light will never diminished, emotionally immortal as all routes remember how influential you were.
Second route, if "stand out" is a spotlight, then you must be the darkness surrounds it, or as was called earlier, the shadow. You are the background, propping the spotlight. But you feel alright; because the second route is a safe choice, having a diploma is a safe choice, being married is a safe choice. However, a shadow will always remain a shadow. You will not be immortal, because well, look at how influential you are.
Third route, you cease to exist to some. As fucked up and ignorant that is, it is true. People are fighting for your rights -- basic human rights, but some ignore the efforts, and fucking push you around, thinking it's okay, because their heads are far up their asses, the only thing they see is how beneficial their actions are. Sadly, as "school - uni - job", you will not be immortal, because to some ignorant individuals, you never exist.
However, whichever route you take, or forced to take, will only lead to one moment: 00:00:00
That moment is when breathing isn't your place to do anymore.

Everyone knows that high school is always something to dread. GPA, friends, enemies, prom, graduation, everything that you think would make high school good and bad for the future. Now scratch off friends, GPA, prom, and graduation.
Why would you scratch them off? Because everything else will be the only thing that's important when you get to this high school.
Saint Johnathan Pier is the one high school in the city where everything happens and normally, stuff you wish you didn't see.
Everyone warned people about the dangers of the students going there but did they ever mention the people already broken by it?
They were dubbed "the rainbow colors of society" just because they were different from other students in this school.
But there's a slight differential between them: four of these students are popular while the other four are normal.
While the four populars are seen as "superior, hot, and intimidating", the four normals are seen as "weirdos, weaklings, and irreverent bystanders".
Being different from the other kids has always been a struggle for all of them since grade school, but they try to keep that out of mind.
But with their dark history following them at every corner, making new friends can't be on their list.
Matter of fact, it isn't an option. Especially when their attitudes are what drive people away rather than in.
Not like they're complaining though.
When these eight students get paired up for an end of the year assignment, they encounter a lot of drama that will test their relationships to the max.
What will happen to them? Can they grow comfortable with each other? Can these troubled teens even be friends in the first place?
Come along on the journey as these eight try to survive their last year of high school.
