Michael came out of the pod with Blake and Cole after defeating Hammerhood. They returned to the school grounds. He was amazed by his upgraded ability. The ability no longer required HP (Health Points) for him to activate it. He could simply take blood from someone and use it to create a weapon.
A few minutes later, the three of them arrived at the school and went straight to their next class once they were done. They decided to head to the library. Michael felt they were being watched, but he couldn't guess why or by whom, so he planned to play along. He had informed Blake and Cole about his suspicion.
The stalker had been following them for about three hours, starting from the cinema. The person had made their presence rather obvious, unknowingly. Mostly, a quack would do that.
After arriving at the library, they picked up random books from the shelves and went to sit at the far end of the library. The person had stopped following them when they arrived at the library. "Why the heck are we being followed?" Michael asked in a low tone. "We should just play along and see what happens next," Blake replied to Michael's question while looking around. Cole was rather focused on the book he was reading, lost in his own thoughts, wondering if there would be a second season of "My Lovely Psychopath."
A few moments later, they headed back to the cafeteria for dinner. Upon arrival, they noticed that everyone was standing in front of a table, and a bet was currently going on. Michael, Blake, and Cole smirked and walked up to the table. Suddenly, a stainless steel plate was thrown onto the ground. Two boys began to fight, having an argument over a game bet and wanting to settle it with their fists rather than coming to a mutual agreement. None of the students seemed to care as they fought brutally.
Two students sat at the table and continued the game. The first student threw a dice over a tablet with numbers displayed on it. The dice landed on six, and it displayed ten on the tablet, suddenly, the other students threw a punch at the former, causing him to fall to the ground, and the two of them began another fight.
Michael was confused by the sudden display of aggression. He didn't seem to understand what was going on. Blake noticed that he didn't understand the game and decided to explain it to him. "The game is called Boy's Brawl. It was normally played on a piece of paper, but thanks to technology, it is now played on tablets called Gamevaults. That is the tablet you are seeing," Blake said as he pointed at the tablet. Cole was also listening to the explanation.
Blake continued to explain, "We play it with dice. The dice is thrown over the tablet. The number which it lands on decides if the players are to fight or if all the boys around are to fight. Six displays ten, meaning only the two players are to fight. Three displays twenty, meaning all the boys within 200 meters are to fight brutally. Sounds crazy and stupid, right? But since we are here, that's the rule."
Two students then went to stand outside after closing down the cafeteria doors. "Wait, isn't the school going to reprimand us for fighting a brawl inside the school?" Cole asked. "Well, yes, but who cares? We should have some fun. Then later, we change the school hierarchy," Michael answered Cole's question with a wicked smile on his face.
Ten set of students were now in a brawl fight, while others continued the game. A student threw the dice with a wicked smile on his face as the dice landed on three, and as Blake had said. It displayed twenty which means a brawl begins "We stick together, Find the bullies. We are attacking only them." Micheal said as a student threw a punch at him. He dodged the punch and gave the student a kick in his stomach, sending the student sliding across the ground.
Cole climbed the Cafeteria table to find some of the other student who had been messing things up in the school. He noticed Ryan. "Time for revenge. Ryan, you basta*rd" Cole called out to Ryan as he lunged towards him with a punch, a teeth came out as Cole's fist landed on his face. Cole pounced on him, and threw series of punches at Ryan, while kneeling over him and holding onto his collar.
Blake on the other hand was surrounded by three students. They pounced on him with Punches coming from different directions. He saw a chance to move after being beaten blue and black. He held one of the students by the trouser and threw him away while giving the other one a punch on the stomach, and the third one a series of kicks, causing the student to break a rib, Blake ended up with a swollen eye.
After an hour of brutal and continuous brawl. The PA system tuned in. Blake, Cole, Micheal, Ryan, Jack and ten other students were called to the academy deciplinary committee for starting a brawl in the school Cafeteria. Which lasted for more than an hour. Upon arrival at the office. The room was large enough to contain about a hundred student.The disciplinary committee at the academy was composed of several key members.
The academy Council members chaired the committee, to pass the final decisions, The committee also included two teachers, who brought their administrative expertise and knowledge of the school's policies and procedures. Finally, the committee included a parent representative, chosen from the school's parent-teacher association. This parent member ensured that the voice of the broader school community was heard during the disciplinary process.
They were all given punishments and were to carry out the Punishment the next day after morning training. Micheal and the others were to clean the whole school ground including the boy's dorm restroom for the whole day. Thirty minutes later, they came outside of the deciplinary committee office. Five of the students were crying including Michael, Blake and Cole.
The three knelt down and stretched their hands out "No, this is a nightmare. Why the toilet, why?!!" Micheal shouted at the top of his voice causing everyone's attention to be on the three of them as they cried like babies. The tears erupted from their eyes like twin geysers, spraying forth in high-arcing streams as they cascaded down thier cheeks, which had puffed out to absurd proportions, making his face resemble an overstuffed dumpling.the three of them mouth hung open in a wide, gaping "O," his bottom lip trembling uncontrollably.
A torrent of exaggerated wails and sobs poured forth, each one more melodramatic than the last. It sounded as if a wounded walrus was being serenaded by a dying cat.As the tears continued to flow, thier nose began to run, a thin trickle of mucus dribbling down towards his quivering chin. They made no attempt to wipe it away, too consumed by their own theatrical display of anguish to notice the growing mess on his face.
Lisa and Kaylee were passing by, and saw the three openly crying with everyone attention on the three. The two ignored them and continued walking to their dorms. Lisa and Kaylee were trying hard to hold their laughter when they passed by them. The three of them looked utterly ridiculous. What made it worst was, Blake and Micheal swollen eyes and Cole's purple swollen cheek.
He had received countless blows from many students during the brawl while Michael was kicked in the groins by a student and was brutally beaten up as he fell to the ground. Blake was thrown into the air countless of times while fighting with the grade 6 ability users like Jack, he fought with about three of them alone.
"Announcement. There's an upcoming mission called Mission Critical. Tomorrow a team will be sent on the mission. You better pray your team gets chosen cause there's a reward once the Mission is completed. Get some Sleep. It getting late, and tell those three fools crying at the hallway to get moving." The Robot announced over the PA system.
"Dumbass Robot, i will destroy you." Micheal shouted as tears dropped from his eyes like a waterfall.
