Kapitel 7: Are we really going to be okay?

For two weeks straight we all are going to live in the school. It's kind of okay and not okay at the same time because all connection to the outside is blocked.

After the announcement was finished we all were sent back to our classes.

We live in a modern age and by that I mean, many bring their smartphones with them in school even though it is prohibited.

So naturally, they tried to call their respective parents but...

Everyone's backpacks were missing.

Many put their phones in backpacks but... since our backpacks are missing many thought that we were not of options. But some kept their phones with them, so few still had their phones.

The person with the phone tried to call on a number but he was automatically directed to a voicemail.

The government doesn't have loopholes, they thoroughly have seen this through.

...

"What should we do now?" Alex asked me while we were sitting in our seats. The class was filled and everyone was discussing forming a group about this weird situation.

"I don't know. Teachers are also missing, I mean there is no one in the whole building and just a few moments ago they were all in the auditorium."

"I have an idea."

"What?"

"If there is no one in the whole school to check us we can just jump over the school gate, right."

"Like no one would have thought of it."

"Come on, let's go and check." He took my hand and pulled me.

"Okay. I'll go, don't pull me, I can walk on my own." I freed my hand and tagged along.

...

"Umm.... can I come also?" Someone again pulled my shirt.

"Huh." It was Selene.

"...." oh.. she also wants to check. I didn't know she was listening to us.

"Yeah sure." she also tagged along with us but... she didn't let go of my shirt.

"Umm... Selene..." I tried to give a hint that she is still holding onto my shirt.

"Huh..." she didn't realise it yet.

"Nothing." fine hold onto it.

...

We walked towards the exit. I noticed that the school was in... desolation.

"Hey look, it's already crowded."

"I told you. Many of the students must have thought of the same thing as you. Stupid." I scowled at him a little.

"Anyway, why aren't they going outside? Isn't our school gate only around four-meter high?" I also thought of the same thing.

"Hey, what's happening?" I called someone who was standing right in front of us.

"It looks like the gate have been replaced with a new one."

"Huh!" Alex was the first one to react.

"What do you mean by that?" I asked.

"Look at it yourself."

I stepped forward also... Selene is still holding onto my shirt, come on girl when will you let go?

".... oh fuck." What the heck is that thing?

"What did you see, tell me also!" Alex shouted from behind.

Alex is small in height as compared to an average high school student, that is why he couldn't see what I just saw.

"The school gate has been replaced."

"What?"

"Instead of our old gate a metal gate is replaced and a sign is placed in front of it saying 'Caution- High voltage current is flowing through here.'"

"Huh?" Yes, that's the same reaction when I first saw it.

"W-what do we do now?" Selene said while pulling my shirt.

"I don't know...." how could I know?

"For now let's meet up with others."

"With others you mean our class right?"

"Yes, of course, who else."

"No, nothing. Never mind." actually he is friends with weird kids and would usually hang out with them and for a second thought, he meant them.

...

We walked towards our class.

"Someone is still in class." It was a little surprising because while we were on our way almost all the classes were empty. Maybe because they were all anxious about what to do now so we're roaming around the school instead of sitting ducks.

"Who?" I asked Alex since he is walking in front.

"Umm... it's Peter and Liz." ohh... man not Liz and Peter, both at the same time.

"Hey! Have you seen others?" Alex you idiot! I didn't want to be associated with them.

"Huh! Ohh... no we haven't." Liz answered while glaring at me. Why?!

"By the way..." Peter said but stopped in between and looked behind me. What's behind me?

"Hmm..." I looked but nothing was there so naturally I looked at Peter.

"Why is she holding onto your shirt?" ohh... he meant Selene.

"Why? Is it bothering you? I never liked Peter, never. So this is a good chance to annoy him a little if it annoys him that Selene is holding my shirt. Good going Selene, don't let go of my shirt.

"Huh!?" he thinks that everyone should listen to him.

"I said, 'Is it bothering you?'," I said in a sarcastic tone.

"Stop it Peter." too bad Liz interfered in between. Someday I want to kick his ass.

"STUDENTS THIS IS AN IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT SO LISTEN CAREFULLY. LOOK INSIDE YOUR RESPECTIVE DESKS AND THERE YOU WILL FIND AN ENVELOPE. OPEN IT. THERE WILL BE A TASK WRITTEN FOR YOU. COMPLETE IT BEFORE THE TIME LIMIT WRITTEN ON IT ALSO WHO IS NOT ABLE TO COMPLETE THE TASK OR REFUSES TO DO IT WILL EXPELLED FROM SCHOOL ON THE SPOT." okay first of all I would like to say it loud-

'What the fuck is happening in this school!?' but I tried to suppress it.

I walked towards my bench and we all went towards our bench.

"Time limit- 1 hour. Task-_____________________________________."

Huh! it's blank.
