A Plea Yet Unknown Warriors

 PROLOGUE:

CHARACTERS & THEIR PERSONALITIES:

ILLEGAL HOUND:  He is careful and kind guy, he doesn't like to communicate with others *introvert*, however, he goes all out when it's about his cousins or when he's with them. He usually never makes mistakes, but when he does, you'll know. He's athletic guy, ready-to-fight anytime, but that's only when it is reasonable to do so.

THEBE: He is the smartest (?) person in the group, but at some moments, he can be the dumbest creature you can ever find. Also, he is the lazy person you can buy on internet for 0.00$. Even if he's smart, he panics a lot when situation comes upon him.

AQUA: She is the biggest knucklehead of our group, she sometimes makes lame and murdering *by real means* jokes, that makes her the most endangered species of our group, though no one hates her, she's a nice girl.

BAPO: He is the core of cousins group, very talkative with everyone except unknown people, yes, he's also an introvert. He doesn't like to be ignored when he says something important once in a while.

STELLER: She is the Honest, yet a dark humor girl, she usually doesn't reply on group, but she takes care from the background, and doesn't let anyone know. You can say she's the sharp-minded and extrovert of our group, but can be dumb sometimes, so not trusted.

SAIFUR: He is the most optimistic person on our group, like THEBE, he is smart. He gives ideas even when no one asks him, but he gets scared at some points. He often acts cutely, which THEBE hates…

TACKLER: He is like the strings of COUSIN's group, connecting everyone together, an innocent person you can say, believes people easily, but he knows when to and when not to. He often acts on emotions.

WHO IS THE NARRATOR? (THAT IS, THE ANSWER YOU NEED TO FIND OUT BEFORE THE STORY ENDS)

(YEAR IS 2022)

NOTE: THEY ALL ARE INTROVERT, EVEN THOUGH THEY ALL ACT NICE TO EACH OTHER, THEY RESERVE THEIR EMOTIONS WHEN THEY ALL ARE FACE TO FACE. THEY ALL HAVE SARCASTIC MECHANISM FITTED.

FROM THE VERY BEGINNING:

[13TH MAY 2022,]

[A GUY WEARING WHITE SCHOOL SHIRT, WITH A BLACK TIE, AND FURNISHED PANT, HAVING A BAG HANGED UP TO HIS SHOULDER, WAS GOING TO HIS SCHOOL]

GUY: Maybe I will try a different route to home today…. After all, it's my last day at my school, after that, I only need to do final exams, which will… probably be tough….

[AT 7:44 AM, TACKLER RECEIVED A MESSAGE IN HIS COUSIN'S GROUP, THE NAME OF THE MEMBERS WAS:

[BAPO]: *OFFLINE*.

[THEBE]: *didn't read it*

[SAIFUR]: Sure!

[AQUA] (THE ONE WHO MESSAGED: Anyone up for games this evening?)

[STELLER] REPLIED: Gotta study…

[ILLEGAL HOUND]: Got a whooping for not break fasting today, not gon' be there today.

[TACKLER]: Won't be there, got some events in my life here.

[IT WAS 8:40 AM, HE WAS LATE FOR SCHOOL]

[HE WAS HUFFING & WAS TAKING DEEP BREATHE, HE WAS ALL SWEATY BECAUSE HE STARTED TO RUN FOR SCHOOL AS HE WAS LATE]

[AS HE ENTERED THE SCHOOL, THERE WAS A FRIEND OF HIS, WHO WAS ALSO LATE, BUT HE IS ALWAYS LATE, SO, PAY NO HEED, IN FRONT OF THEM, THEIR P.E TEACHER WAS STANDING, GIVING THEM A DEATH-STARE, BUT HIS FRIEND SEEMED LIKE HE WAS USED TO THAT]

GUY: Mark, Ready for warmup?

MARK: I always do that before coming in class…

GUY: Welp, whoever gave up first will be gay…

[WITHOUT GIVING IT A SECOND THOUGHT, MARK REPLIED WITH A YES]

P.E TEACHER: It's not a competition idiots, do it properly or I'll have to give you detention. Also, TACKLER, I have some news for you…. It's quite saddening…. so, meet me after class.

TACKLER: Wha...? Saddening?

[AS HE HEARD THAT, HE SAW A GUY, SNEAKILY ENTERING THE SCHOOL, AVOIDING P.E TEACHER]

MARK: Nah, he's just used to say these things to students who are late… What's fascinating is that its only just the two of us, who came this late…

TACKLER: Better hurry then….

[THEY BOTH MAKE A RUN FOR THE CLASS; IT WAS CHEMISTRY PERIOD]

[HUFFING AND NORMALIZING THEIR BREATHS, THEY REACHED THE DOOR OF THEIR CLASS, HE SAW HIS FRIEND FALCO, WAVING HIS HAND FROM THE LAST BENCH, EVERYONE WAS SCRUFFING UP THEIR PAGES… UNTIL THEY REALIZED:

BOTH: Today… is The Test….

TACKLER: Even though it's our last day, she got no chill. I didn't learn the test….

MARK: What was the test btw?

CHEMISTRY TEACHER: Take up your seats, and go to the last bench, also, never be late for my class, or there will be consequences.

[THEY BOTH GO TO THE LAST BENCH, AND DO THEIR TESTS, HOWEVER, FALCO WAS MAKING REALLY WEIRD FACES, WHICH QUITE RESEMBLED OF A PERSON NAMED *W1S!$W!]

[AFTER 30 MINUTES]

TACKLER: What was the name of that reactant required for H2SO4?

MARK: Joe Mama…

FALCO: I wrote up ketchup in there, it required something red… so that's what I thought…

TACKLER *in mind*: .... (confused)

[TACKLER THOUGHT THAT MENTIONING HIS NUMBERS TO HIS FRIENDS WOULD MAKE HIM FEEL BETTER, BUT:

TACKLER: I got 14/40.

MARK: Even worse, I got 39/40.

TACKLER *shocked*; How tf is that ever worse?

FALCO: I got 40/40…

TACKLER: WHY THE HELL YOU DIDN' TELL ME!?

MARK: Well, you are always in teacher's sights… thought you'd knew...

FALCO: Forget the tests, Mark, you found your girl?

MARK: Nah don't talk about it, I hate girls of this school, they overreact at almost everything… it kills me inside seeing them like this.

TACKLER; There's a better word ''cringe''.

[AS THEY WERE TALKING, THERE WAS ANOTHER GUY, WHO WAS WHISPERING ANCIENT WORDS, UNKNOWN TO OTHERS, NO ONE COULD HEAR IT THOUGH]

MARK: Hey, I tried to eat burrito with cheese yesterday.

TACKLER: How was it?

FALCO: He likes everything, even if you give him a chocolate that contains poison, he'll not die, and then, he will say that IT IS GOOD.

MARK: It is good that's why I say it is good…

 [ALL OF A SUDDEN, TACKLER FELT A HEAVY IMPULSE PASSING THROUGH HIS BODY, CAUSING HIM TO FALL DOWN ON HIS KNEES]

MARK: Woah, you don't have to touch my legs for apologizing, I forgive you son.

[TACKLER WAS HOLDING HIS CHEST FIRMLY, AS IT FELT LIKE IT WAS BURNING HIM FROM INSIDE, AND HIS BODY'S MUSCLES WERE CONTINOUSLY TWITCHING]

FALCO: Alright, jokes aside, something is really up here.

[IN THE MEANTIME, THE ENTIRE CLASS GATHERED AROUND HIM]

[MARK AND FALCO QUICKLY PICKED HIM, AND TOOK HIM TO INFIRMARY ROOM]

[WHEN THEY REACHED THE ROOM, THE DOCTOR WAS NOT THERE, BUT MARK KNEW BASIC FIRST AIDS]

FALCO: THE DOCTOR'S NOT HERE YET! WHAT SHOULD WE DO!?

MARK: Quick, give him anesthesia, and give him sleeping pills… 

[FALCO DID AS MARCO SAID]

[AFTER SOME MOMENTS, TACKLER CALMS DOWN, AND WAS UNCONSCIOUS]

MARK: What's his deal?

FALCO: No idea fam, but… it feels good to help him this way, dunno why… at first, he acts like a great guy, who's strong and ready for everything, but then, out of nowhere, he becomes this fragile…

MARK: You saw him like this before? I don't recall…

FALCO: Well… You see…. I've been keeping an eye on him for 3 years, so I know… Did you never think who took him to infirmary when you weren't there for him?

MARK: ...…. No.

FALCO *sighs*: Welp let's leave him here…. He won't be back until noon… it's the biggest stroke he ever had.

[BOTH OF THEM LEAVE FROM THE ROOM]

[TIME: 1:27 PM]

[FEELING A LIL BIT DIZZY, TACKLER WAKES UP]

TACKLER: That was something today…

[AS HE GOT OFF THE BED, HE FELL OFF, FOR A MOMENT, HIS LEGS WEREN'T FUNCTIONING WELL]

TACKLER: gotta let it rest a bit… and... uP!

[HE GETS UP]

TACKLER: I wonder if they went home. Oh right. Come to think of it. I had to meet P.E teacher after school.

[HE PUTS HIS SHOES ON, AND HEADS TO GYM ROOM, WHERE P.E TEACHER WAS SETTING THE VOLLEYBALLS]

TACKLER: Sir?

P.E TEACHER: Oh, you came… why are you here by the way? You don't have home?

TACKLER: Uh… you asked me to come here after school…

[AFTER A MOMENT, HE REMEMBERED]

P.E TEACHER: Right, I am the one who called you here.

[..... quite a slow chat there is]

TACKLER: So...… what did you want to tell me?

P.E: Well… the thing is…. You are held back for one year.

TACKLER: WHAT?!??! HOW!?!

P.E: There were some things pointed about you during this year, you disrespect your teachers unlike others, never pay attention to class, always having fun with your friends, even your own friends study better than you… Your tests are bad, you are centered in your class due to bad impression, not because you study good, your grades this year fell back to D.

TACKLER: no.... This isn't real! I.... I CAN'T BE THAT KIND OF PERSON! YOU'VE GOT A WRONG PERSON HERE, TRUST ME!

[SCENE CUTS]

[13 MAY 2022, TIME: 7:43 AM]

[THERE WAS A GIRL, WHO WAS GETTING READY FOR SCHOOL]

GIRL: Maybe, I'll try a different way to school.

[SHE OPENS UP HER PHONE, OPENS HER COUSIN'S GROUP AND ASKS: Anyone up for playing games?] *On 7:44AM*

[LATER ON, SHE MADE HER BREAK FAST, ATE IT, HEADED FOR SCHOOL]

GIRL: I go. This way…. So, let's go from there.

[SOMEHOW, AT 8 AM, SHE REACHED SCHOOL]

GIRL: Dang, close... I am like, 5 minutes early.

[SHE HEADED TOWARDS HER CLASS. WHERE SHE FOUND HER FRIENDS, ALREADY THERE ON TIME]

FRIEND: You never go off your script, Aqua….

AQUA: I slept for like, an hour, that's why I am late.

FRIEND: How the hell are you here?

AQUA: 😊

[TEACHER COMES IN]

TEACHER: TAKE UP YOUR SEATS!

[IN AN INSTANT, EVERYONE WENT BACK TO THEIR SEATS]

AQUA: Alright, gotta hold my sanity until 1:40PM.

FRIEND: You good?

AQUA: I don't think so, I think… I am probably gonna puke…. They didn't turn on the AC.

[AFTER 1 HOUR, WHEN THE TWO CLASSES WERE OVER]

FRIEND: You don't need to make that kind of face; you really look like a broken vessel here.

AQUA: Do I?

[UNTIL THEY HEARD HURRIED FOOTSTEPS OF TWO PEOPLE RUNNING TOWARDS INFIRMARY, CARRYING A PERSON]

AQUA: Is that TACKLER?

FRIEND: You know him?

AQUA: Uh.... No, I don't know him, first time seeing him.

FRIEND: boy got some problems in his body, the rumor just spreaded all over the school, and now, someone put his name in blacklist, making him repeating the entire year….

AQUA: WhaT?! HE'S REPEATING THE ENTIRE YEAR?

FRIEND: You seem pretty intrigued by that….

AQUA: Well...…. This info is kinda, hard to ingest.

[SCENE CUTS]

[IT WAS MAY 13TH, 2022, 7:40 AM]

[A GUY HAVING DECENT HAIR, SPORTY SHOES WAS HEADED FOR SCHOOL]

[HIS PHONE WAS TURNED OFF BECAUSE HE USED UP ALL OF HIS BATTERY LATE NIGHT]

GUY: Oh boy, I'll be late for school, I got up late today..

[ON THE WAY, HE MET HIS FRIEND, WHO WAS ALSO GOING TO SCHOOL, ON BIKE]

GUY: Speed?

FRIEND: Speed.

[THEY REACHED THE SCHOOL AT 7:49AM]

GUY: Ey, We reached there in like 9 MINUTES! THAT's our new record.

FRIEND: You need to learn driving bike, BAPO, if you go on like this, you will become gay.

BAPO: I don't know how that will happen, but I'll learn it as soon as I can.

[THEY BOTH ENTERED THEIR CLASS]

[BAPO HAD HIS DESK NEAR THE WINDOW, HE SAT THERE]

BAPO: Ah… I need to gather materials for notes…

[BAPO SAW OUTSIDE THE WINDOW THAT TACKLER & ONE OTHER PERSON WERE LATE FOR SCHOOL, & P.E TEACHER WAS RIGHT IN FRONT OF THEM]

BAPO: I wonder if he's screwed there.

[BELL RINGS]

FRIEND: Hey, wanna go for lunch?

BAPO: We just came to school, chill.

FRIEND: Oh right.

[AFTER 30 MINUTES]

FRIEND: Hey, Wanna go for lunch?

BAPO: We only had one class until now, wait for 4th bell, then we'll go for lunch.

[AFTER 30 MINUTES]

BAPO: So… Here, x goes there, and 4x gets cut up here.

FRIEND *out of nowhere*: Hey, wanna go for lunch?

BAPO: MAN YOU STARTLED ME!

[AFTER 30 MINUTES, WHEN THE LUNCH TIME FINALLY BEGAN]

FRIEND: Hey... W—

[BAPO WAS PACKING HIS BAG]

BAPO: Alright, time to go home…

[THERE WERE TWO BROTHERS, PARTICULARLY, TWINS]

[ONE WAS GETTING READY FOR SCHOOL, WHILE THE OTHER WAS DOZING OFF]

???: You need to get up, THEBE.

THEBE: I ain't going today, SAIFUR.

[AT 7:44 AM, SAIFUR RECIEVES A MESSAGE ON HIS COUSIN'S GROUP, WHERE AQUA WAS ASKING IF SOMEONE IS AVAILABLE TO PLAY THIS EVENING, SAIFUR REPLIED WITH: Sure!]

SAIFUR: You do know you will receive penalty for this, right?

THEBE: I don't care about that… I wanna sleep today.

SAIFUR *scoffs*: Do whatever you want..

[AS SAIFUR OPENS UP HIS ROOM DOOR, SUDDENLY, A PORTAL OPENS UP, AND THEY BOTH WERE PULLED INTO IT]

*AT 7:47AM, SAIFUR AND THEBE BOTH WERE PULLED INTO AN UNKNOWN PORTAL*

[MAY 13TH 2022, 7:30 AM]

[A GIRL WAS SITTING ON HER SEAT, WHILE READING AND MAKING NOTES FOR HER STORY]

GIRL: If I hide the kids in the basement, where police won't find them, then, I am sure people will not suspect me.

*someone from her class*: I don't know what you are planning, but I am calling the cops now.

GIRL: DON'T! ITS MY STORY! MY STORY! DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT!!

[7:44AM, THAT GIRL RECEIVED A MESSAGE FROM HER COUSIN'S GROUP, WHERE AQUA WAS ASKING, IF ANYONE IS AVAILABLE TO PLAY GAMES THIS EVENING]

[SHE REPLIED WITH: Gotta study… *she's working on her story*]

GIRL: So, Where I was.., Right, hiding the kids in the basement.

[THE TEACHER ENTERS THE CLASS]

TEACHER: Take up your seats. Today, We'll learn about how this world is messed up, STELLER, Read it.

STELLER: What?

[AFTER 4 HOURS]

STELLER: This world is really messed up not gonna lie. I read ahead of the teacher… I know the full story now *It's not a story*

[IT WAS A BREAK TIME, AS SHE WAS GOING TO CANTEEN, SHE SAW A PERSON WHO WAS GETTING ON BAPO'S NERVE, & SO, BAPO PUNCHED HIM IN THE GUT, & THEN, BOTH OF THEM WERE EATING PEACEFULLY]

STELLER: Welp, can't be helped, he always asks him for lunch.

[SHE ATE HER LUNCH AND WENT TO BATHROOM, AS SHE OPENS THE DOOR, THERE WAS A STRANGE PORTAL]

STELLER; What's that?

[ALL OF A SUDDEN, ALL THE TAPS WERE TURNED ON, AND ENDLESS FLUSHES SOUNDS WERE COMING FROM EVERY TOILET]

STELLER: Oh boy, I am gonna be in trouble for that, HELLO?!

 [IN THE PORTAL, THERE WAS A GIRL THAT WAS MENACINGLY STARING AT HER, THE FUNNY THING WAS…

STELLER: Is it...me?

[AS SHE SLOWLY NEARS THE PORTAL, THAT GIRL PULLS HER INTO IT, AND EVERYTHING SETTLED DOWN]

*AT 11:51 AM, STELLER WAS PULLED INTO AN UNKNOWN PORTAL*

[SCENE CUTS]

[MAY 13TH 2022, 7:35 AM]

[A GUY JUST WOKE UP, WAS WRIGGLING ON HIS BED, BUT IN THE END, HE PREPARED HIMSELF TO GO TO A BATTLEGROUND NAMED: SCHOOL]

GUY: Man I hate school…. I won't do breakfast today, that's my challenge, I'll survive until 2pm without food and water.

[5 MINUTES LATER]

*His brother*: EAT THIS YOU STUPID!

GUY: NO I WON'T! I HAVE A CHALLENGE TO DO TODAY!

*HIS BROTHER*: YOU WONT BE ABLE TO DO IT FORGET IT!

GUY: I AM A MAN OF MY WORDS!

[HIS BROTHER GAVE HIS A WHOOPING FOR NOT BREAK FASTING]

[AT 7:44 AM, HE RECEIVED A MESSAGE ON HIS COUSIN'S GROUP, IN WHICH AQUA WAS ASKING IF ANYONE IS AVAILABLE TO PLAY GAMES THIS EVENING, HE REPLIED WITH A PATHETIC MESSAGE]

GUY: Welp, Time to go now.

[HE REACHED THE SCHOOL AT 8:42 AM]

GUY: MAN, I AM LATE..... gotta sneak.

[HE SAW P.E TEACHER WAS TALKING TO TACKLER]

GUY: Now's my chance.

[HE SUCCESSFULLY SNEAKS INTO SCHOOL]

GUY: Gotta tell my friends I am on a diet today *Don't ask how he is on a diet, he's always like this*

[AS HE REACHES HIS CLASS, HE SAW HIS FRIEND LOOKING AT HIM WITH CURIOUSITY]

GUY: Sup? What's with that face? You saw a small pox on your chin?

FRIEND: Nah, I wouldn't make this face then…

GUY: Then what…

FRIEND: You think I wouldn't notice it, but…. I kind of realized that you got 6 cousins here at this school.

GUY: Really? I… damn, didn't know that…

FRIEND: And the funny thing is, all of you have weird names, it doesn't even sound real to me.

GUY: Says the guy who's own name is, Ezekiel.

FRIEND: My name is nothing compared to all of you, ILLEGAL HOUND.

ILLEGAL HOUND: It sounds unreal?

FRIEND: Let me state you and your cousin's name:

TACKLER, BAPO, SAIFUR, THEBE, STELLER, AQUA.

FRIEND: I mean, WHO TF HAS HIS REAL NAME AS BAPO?! WHY DID THE SCHOOL EVEN ALLOWED THAT?

NOTE: ALL OF THESE COUSINS DECIDED TO HIDE THEIR REAL NAMES FROM EVERYONE.

ILLEGAL HOUND: That's a big mystery.

FRIEND: Why don't you all interact with each other?

[ILLEGAL HOUND ALSO THOUGHT OF THAT, BUT HE DIDN'T REALLY HAD AN ANSWER TO THAT, SO HE TRIED TO AVOID THE QUESTION]

ILLEGAL HOUND: Don't know man, also, it's kinda inappropriate to indulge yourself in us. Avoid it. You got problems with our names?

FRIEND: Damn bruv, you got kinda serious there.

ILLEGAL HOUND: ...…

[HE LEAVES THE CLASS EVEN THOUGH HE JUST CAME]

ILLEGAL HOUND: What did he mean we all have don't have nice names...….

[3 HOURS LATER, IT WAS 9:42 AM]

[THE THIRD CLASS WAS GOING ON, HOUND ALREADY FELL ASLEEP, HIS FRIEND HAD TO COVER FOR HIM BY MAKING HIMSELF THE BAIT]

[THE THIRD CLASS WAS OVER, AND IT WAS ANNOUNCED THAT 4TH CLASS WILL BE FREE, HEARING THAT, HOUND WOKE UP]

HOUND: Finally, a ray of hope for my survival…

[HE OPENED HIS PHONE, HE SAW THAT NO ONE AFTER 8 AM, HE WENT TO CHECK OUT ON OTHER COUSINS, BECAUSE HE DIDN'T HAD ANY CLASS UNTIL 11 AM, HE NOTICED THAT BOTH SAIFUR & THEBE WERE ABSENT]

[AT 10:43 AM]

[IT WAS LUNCH TIME, TACKLER WAS NOT SPOTTED DURING THAT TIME, WHEN HE WENT TO HIS CLASS, HE WAS ALSO NOT THERE, WHEN HE ASKED HIS FRIEND, HE FOUND THAT TACKLER IS IN INFIRMARY BECAUSE HE WENT UNCONCSIOUS]

ILLEGAL HOUND: Another one? He really needs to stop working himself out…

[HE DECIDED TO TALK THIS OUT WITH BAPO, BUT AS HE WAS GOING TOWARDS IT, THE HALLWAYS SEEMED TO NEVER END]

[AS HE WAS TAKING HEAVY STEPS]

ILLEGAL HOUND: Why this hallway feels so long? 

he flinches as, suddenly a portal opens right on his face

ILLEGAL HOUND: WOAH! Is this... real?

[ALL OF A SUDDEN, ILLEGAL HOUND GETS SUCKED INTO AN UNKNOWN PORTAL]

 *AT 10:50 AM, ILLEGAL HOUND WAS PULLED INTO THE PORTAL*

[SCENE CUTS]

[BACK TO AQUA, WHO WAS INTRIGUED BY THE NEWS OF TACKLER]

[AFTER 5 HOURS, IT WAS 1:30 PM]

AQUA: So, what was in the room?

FRIEND: There were pistols, GRANDS AND STUFF.

AQUA: You mean, Grenades.

FRIEND *SCOFFS*: Whatever.

[AS FRIEND SAID THAT, AQUA FELT THIRSTY & SAID THAT:

AQUA: I'm gonna get some water...

[AS SHE GOT UP FROM HER SEAT, AND WENT TOWARDS THE CLASS DOOR, SHE HEARD HER FRIEND'S VOICE SAYING:

She's always like that, always trying to run from my talks…

AQUA *in mind*: Because I don't wanna be the witness of such things…

[SHE OPENS CLASS'S DOOR, WHERE SUDDENLY, A PORTAL OPENS UP, AND SHE IMMEDIATELY GOT SUCKED IN, AND AFTER THAT, THE DOOR WAS CLOSED SHUT, ONLY AN ECHO OF AQUA'S SCREAM COULD BE HEARD]

*AT 1:43AM, AQUA WAS PULLED INTO THE PORTAL*

CLASSMATE: Anyone heard that?

CLASSMATE II: Must be your imagination….

[SCENE CUT]

[BACK TO BAPO, WHO WAS GOING BACK HOME]

[HE SAW A NEW SHOP OF CREPES ON THE WAY BACK]

BAPO: Oh, it's new, I'll upload its location to the group, hope we all go together there.

[HE TURNS ON HIS PHONE *Don't ask how he recharged his phone* AND TOOK A PICTURE, BUT IN THAT PICTURE]

BAPO: What's that?

[HE SAW A FRAGMENT OF GLITCHES IN THE BUSHES, NEAR THE SHOP]

BAPO: What's that?

[HE WENT UP THERE WITHOUT ANY SECOND THOUGHT]

BAPO: Uh….. Who are you?

[THAT GLITCH WENT DEEP INTO BUSHES, OUT OF CURIOSITY, BAPO FOLLOWED HIM IN RUSH, WHEREVER THE GLITCH WAS MOVING FROM, THAT PLACE WAS FILLED WITH VOID TEXTURE]

BAPO: What the frick?

[SCENE CUTS]

[BACK TO TACKLER, WHO WAS SHOCKED BY HIS NEWS]

TACKLER: Trust me, YOU GOT A WRONG PERSON THERE, CHECK GR NO. AGAIN, MINE IS 26571, THERE MUSE BE 25571.

P.E TEACHER: Oh, I need to confirm it, so, stand by.

TACKLER: ARE YOU SERIOUS? *Relieving breath* YOU GOT ME ONE STEP CLOSER TO DEATH THERE.!

P.E TEACHER: Better mind your langua--

[BELL RINGS]

P.E TEACHER: Go home now, you must be tired of all this...

TACKLER: Oh, I am no--- actually, yeah, I am tired. Imma go home, just let me know if you hear any change…

P.E TEACHER: Sure.

[TACKLER GOES BACK TO HIS CLASS; IT SEEMED LIKE EVERYONE HAD LEFT ALREADY]

TACKLER: I guess everyone's gone home, no one treated it as the last day… *chuckles* Well, that's another part of our life, everyone goes their own ways…

[HE PICKS UP HIS BAG, AND LEAVES HIS CLASS]

TACKLER: Maybe I'll play games this evening after all, all events are neutralized for now.

[TACKLER'S FACIAL EXPRESSION WERE LIL' DEPRESSED, AFTER HEARING THAT UNCONFIRMED NEWS]

TACKLER: Man, I really hope it's not true.

[AS HE WAS GOING THROUGH THE CORRIDOR TO THE EXIT, 2ND SHIFT STUDENTS WERE ENTERING THE SCHOOL]

TACKLER: Damn, look at the crowd here…

[HE NOTICED THAT P.E TEACHER WAS NOT AT THE GATE ANYMORE]

TACKLER: Now that I remembered, we all decided to hide our original names, why was that? It all started when we entered our final year.

Why are we calling ourselves by our gaming names?

Let me try calling my real name, Hope nothing goes wrong here.

M-

[AS HE WAS ABOUT TO SAY IT, HE GOT A CALL FROM SOMEONE ON HIS PHONE]

TACKLER: Who's calling me?

[IT WAS HIS CLASS TEACHER]

TACKLER: Class teacher? *Picks it up*

CLASS TEACHER: Am I talking to TACKLER?

TACKLER: Yes.

CLASS TEACHER: Thank God it's the right number, had to check different sections every time.

TACKLER: Why would you do that? Anyway, why did you call me?

CLASS TEACHER: Did you meet your P.E Teacher?

[A LIL BREAK HERE]

TACKLER: …. N-No, I didn't.

CLASS TEACHER: Guess he didn't tell you then….

TACKLER: What is it about?

CLASS TEACHER: Well, we got some news for you.

There's been rumor about you repeating your entire year for your actions… But It's not true.

TACKLER: Yeah, that's right, I didn't do anything.

[TEACHER SIGHS]

CLASS TEACHER: You will be graduated from this school this year; you are not repeating…

[HEARING THAT, HE WAS FEELING LIL TINGLES ALL OVER HIS BODY]

TACKLER: WHA- REALLY?

CLASS TEACHER: Guess your P.E Teacher really played with your emotions.

TACKLER *happily*: I-I- I Can't—I CAN'T EXPLAIN HOW HAPPY I AM!

CLASS TEACHER: I'll hang up now….

TACKLER: THANK YOU VERY MU— [PHONE CUTS]

TACKLER: Ah, That's a big burden off my shoulder within one day…

[HE LEFT THE SCHOOL]

[ON HIS WAY BACK]

TACKLER: Welp, time to try different path to home.

[RATHER THAN GOING STRAIGHT HOME, HE WENT THROUGH NEW STREETS]

TACKLER: The air feels fresh not gonna lie :3….

[AS HE WAS HAPPILY GOING HOME, HE HEARD SOME BUSHES NOISES, AS IF SOMEONE WAS RUNNING INSIDE IT]

TACKLER: What's that?

[HE HEARD SOMEONE SCREAMING FROM BUSHES:

''STOP RUNNING YOU GLITCHY SKIP!''

[THIS VOICE SOUNDED FAMILIAR TO TACKLER]

TACKLER: I think I've heard this voice before….

[AS THE BUSH NOISE CAME CLOSER, A GLITCH FRAGMENT CAME IN FRONT OF HIM]

TACKLER: Huh?

[AFTERWARDS, FROM BEHIND, ANOTHER PERSON APPEARED, WHO WAS….]

TACKLER: BAPO? What are you doing here?

BAPO: What ARE YOU DOING HERE?

TACKLER: I tried different route today, And, what are you chasing there?

BAPO: DON'T LOOK INTO HIS EYES! SOMETHING'S WRONG WITH IT!!!

[ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE WIND THERE INCREASED BY 6 TIMES, TWO EYES WERE FORMED ON THE FRONT AND BACK OF GLITCHY FRAGMENT BODY, CAUSING BAPO AND TACKLER TO LOOK STRAIGHT INTO IT'S EYES]

TACKLER: Shi---

[IN A BLINK, NOTHING HAPPENED, BUT THEN, THEY NOTICED THAT GLITCHY FRAGMENT WAS GONE]

TACKLER: See? Nothing happ—

BAPO: DON'T SET RED FLAGS----

[ALL OF A SUDDEN, A PORTAL OPENED UP, SUCKED BOTH OF THEM INTO IT, AND THEN CLOSED ON ITS OWN, AND EVERYTHING SETTLED DOWN]

*AT 2:23PM, TACKLER AND BAPO WERE PULLED INTO THE PORTAL*
