Capítulo 2: Chapter 2
Waking up the next day, Jack felt refreshed for once in a month.
Quickly he got up from his bed and started dressing himself up, getting ready for school.
Finishing his daily needs in the bathroom, Jack quickly came back to his room and dressed up quickly.
Wearing a pair of blue jeans, a black sweater, and a pair of black shoes.
Grabbing the school bag that he had gotten ready yesterday night, Jack slung it over his shoulder and opened the door of his studio apartment.
Jack had lived alone for most of his life, he was at first raised by his single mother who later on went on a business trip and had left him here for a few years now, only sending a bunch of money at the end of each month.
'She's probably only doing that until I turn eighteen and then I will never hear a peep from her ever again.' Jack thought as he shook his head in mild anger.
Walking down the emergency stairs of the building, he quickly arrived at the road and started heading towards Forks High School.
Looking around, Jack saw the usual, the gloomy atmosphere of the city and the clouds that seemed to never leave the city.
'Considering it's one of the cities with the largest amount of rain in the continent then it makes sense why those clouds never disappear' Jack thought as he walked down the road, continuing to look around.
It had been a habit he formed when he first came to Forks as a kid with his mother, everything had looked so new back then, so interesting that he couldn't stop the joy he felt as he explored the town.
Soon after Jack found another student heading towards the high school.
[ User has unlocked Observation Skill due to continued observation ]
Jack froze as he stared at the panel for a second and then continued walking.
'Skill? This thing really is just like a game
Turning to look at the student once more, Jack tried to observe the male student.
'It's not showing anything, maybe I need to give a command? Observe' Jack thought and as soon as he said the word in his head, another panel appeared before him.
[ Observe has been used on the target ]
[ Requirement: 4 Perception ]
[ Success ]
[ Target Name: Leeroy Jenkins ]
[ Age: 16 ]
[ Gender: Male ]
[ Race: Human ]
[ A student of Forks High School, Leeroy is a loner who never talks to anyone. Has lung cancer. Life expectancy: 2 Years ]
Jack stopped on the spot once more as he read the description.
'What the fuck? It tells me if they have a sickness and even how long their life expectancy is?' Jack thought befuddled at the sudden information.
Staring at the student walking down the road, Jack thought if he should tell the guy.
'I would just be treated like a madman' Jack thought and then shook his head as he continued walking down the road.
'It's not my problem either way'
The walk took about an hour for Jack to arrive at Forks High School.
Forks High School was at the edge of the town, surrounded by grass fields and a few large pine trees.
At the front, it had a large parking lot that the students and school faculty used each morning.
Arriving at the front door, Jack noticed that everyone was looking in the same direction.
Turning around Jack saw an Orange truck that seemed to be making deafening sounds.
Soon after, the truck turned off, and out of it came a young woman with a pale expression and long brown hair.
'She's good looking' Jack thought absentmindedly and then turned to the student next to him and asked.
"Hey, who is that?" Jack asked.
The student turned towards the voice and then simply frowned at Alex as they turned around and walked off into the school.
'Huh,' Jack was left there wide-eyed as he stared at the student who had just ignored him.
[ Charisma Check Fail ]
'Charisma check fail? What the hell do you mean by that?' Jack thought.
His increased intelligence stat however did its job quickly as a bad premotion overcame Jack.
'No, it can't be right? Surely it isn't that' Jack thought as he quickly walked to another student.
"Hey, James!" Jack said as he came and patted James's shoulder.
James, who was Jack's friend turned and stared at Jack for a few moments and then showed a weirded-out expression.
"Why the hell do you look like you're a walking corpse," James asked, his voice clearly showing his confusion.
"Uh, what do you mean by walking corpse?" Jack asked, his voice visibly relieved that at least James seemed to talk to him.
"I mean it literally, you look like an expressionless corpse, what happened man? Even your voice sounds like you just want to kill yourself" James asked.
"I don't know? Nothing happened i just woke up normally today" Jack said as he shook his head trying to deny that something had happened to him.
[ Charisma check failed. ]
'Charisma failed again? I couldn't convince him?' Jack thought as he stared at the small blue panel in front of him and then back at James.
'Thankfully he doesn't seem mad' Jack thought to himself.
"Whatever man, just don't involve me in shit," James said as he walked away.
'Or not' Jack thought as he stared at his friend's back getting further and further away.
' Should have made a notification and given me the friendless achievement'
