Amongst Us

Certain death

The people in this class are very weird , they don't talk to anyone at all and stay quiet in class like they are beign watched . _ Or is it because they are beign serious and they are trying to be hardworking ?. I turned to look at the boy next to my seat as I intentionally avoided looking outside the window . He wasn't sleeping like he did all day instead he was mumbling to himself and scribbling some words on a piece of paper unnaturally .

" Hello I am Zack Croyer, What is your name ?" I asked unnaturally nicer than I usually do . ' Scribble. Scribble. Scribble. ' He just ignored me good naturally and continued scribbling on his book .

What the hell ?!. So egnimatic , ' Tut ' Not only is the head-teacher creepy, but even the students are weird . As I was busy talking and complaining to my self, I saw something fly towards me. It was a note . Who sent me this note _ was it another another weird class mate , I opened the note and read what was written in it .

#Do you know what this place is ?, If you don't just drop out already !! # 

I almost vomited blood are they so eager to send me away _ do students here really hate new students or are they trying to cut the competition. I spotted the person that threw me the note in the front seat. It was a girl with long black hair and black eyes . Just about when I wanted to send another note to her to ask her what she meant .. . ...

CLASS DISMISSED !!

All the students where standing up getting ready to leave the class, when a boy about 5 ft tall with brown hair held my shoulder and whispered in my ear

" You'll be the last one " he then smiled and left . What does he mean by last one? I ran after the boy with brown hair and tugged his sleeve to get his attention

. " What do you mean, make yourself clear ! " I screamed at him , but he just ignored me and continued walking. I was about to run after him when someone dragged me back . I turned around to see who did, It was the girl with long black hair and black eyes who threw me the note .

" You were the one threw the paper note to me right ? " I asked vigorously because I was curious. I wanted to understand what she meant by what she wrote on the note. She looked at my face weirdly and turned her face. " I am begging you . Just follow me please ! and don't ask any questions ". ' Why not ? Why did you write that to me ? I have a ton of questions ? ' . I inwardly screamed, I wanted ask her those questions but I couldn't bring myself to . I followed her to the cafeteria and looked around . every other class where chatting and talking, it was only class 5E on a line not talking to each other, some of them trembling uncontrollably. What are they so scared of?. Don't the other classes find us bizarre , it's just like they can't even see us . I shivered at the thought of that and hit one students passing near our school line to test my hypothesis, but he just passed over and continued talking to the other students . Wait ! they can't see us !!

" Hey you ! ! do you really....." But the girl with black eyes dragged me. Her body was shaking and her hands were trembling.

" Follow me please! Don't stop ! Do not ever stop !" I wanted to ask her why, but her trembling fingers did not allow me to . Was it because of the class rule that prohibits students from talking to other students_are they that afraid of expulsion ? .We walked to the front of the line and collected our food . What suprised the most was that only our class had a different table . ' I know this is an experimental class but this is just too far ! '_ I inwardly cursed joining this class . If there was a way to discover what was going on in this class it would be to ask this black haired girl, she was my only option since she was the only one who talked to me .

" By the way my name is Zach Croyer, I still don't know your name ? I asked gulping down the remaining food in my mouth .

" Leave ! Leave this school and never return! " Leave ! .......... before the games begin ! Leave before it's too late !! . Now I almost Choked on my food, what was this girl saying, Why does she sounds so much like my superstitious grand mother ?_ why is everyone in that class so eager to see me leave . I turned to look at her, she was busy too engrossed in her meal to utter another word .

I picked up my bag from my chair totally ignoring the broken window and strapped to my chest . Finally, school is officially over , I was exhausted from sitting the whole day in that dreadful class, I didn't still fully understand the class rules after a whole school day _ Well tomorrow is another day .

..........

I ran across the street and opened the door to my house . My grand father was sitting on the chair cross legged reading a newspaper . I quickly headed upstairs but was stopped by my grandfather's voice " Shaoyan, you need to be careful on your way to school . The neighbor a boy your age from no.1 high school had an accident yesterday .... ..... ... You know Zheng Yihan right ? He was the one that was involved in an accident ......... Right now my head could not process whatever my grand father was saying , First of all we never had any neighbour named Zheng Yihan, and secondly, isn't Zheng Yihan the name of that student Mr Li called out , and also the same guy I took his seat......... How did he die yesterday when I saw him in school today ? .... Is that what Mr Li meant when he said I would never have to worry about him again ?. Now the cold sweat on my face had increased to a thousand folds . It's possible they are many students named Zheng Yihan ?...... right !?. Then I suddenly stiffened as I remembered the class rule that said " The student that breaks the most laws would be expelled_ does expulsion mean certain death ? . . . . . . .
