Trapped In School 

Trapped In School 

Chapter One:

The night whistled as the cold breeze danced. Nobody was supposed to be in school by 11pm, but these two boys didn't care. Two tall boys jumped over the fence into the school premises. They made their way to a classroom, though it was locked, with joy in them, they forcefully kicked the door until it opened.

"Sweet," one of them said, adoring what he was bringing out of his backpack. This boy removed his mask he had worn, letting breeze kiss his face.

"Tony, I told you to wear the mask. What if someone sees us?"

"Don't worry, no one's here. I can't wait to do this."

His friend still stuck with the plan. He refused to take off his mask, bringing out what was also in his bag. This one would be called boy 1 as he had warned his friend Tony not call his name in school premises understanding what they were doing was considered illegal, not just by the school laws, but the country's laws too.

These boys had brought a banned VR game which even the government had showed concern to citizens not to play.

Tony asked, "Your mom cook'n pork meat for breakfast?"

"Maybe," Boy 1 busied himself arranging the gaming sets.

Tony moaned in pleasure, raising up his head. "You know you mum's the best. Her pork is so good."

"Yeah, yea, whatever," Boy 1 was done and finally ready to play. He was previously on his knees, but when he had finished assembling the parts he stood up then granted a side glance to his college who was seated on chair with crossed legs.

Tony asked, coming closer to his friend, "Where did you say you got that?"

Boy 1 had a natural deep voice which many girls found attractive. He replied being a bit annoyed with the question as it was the second time asked, "I don't know, man. A weird man in a hoodie sold it to me at the back of a club."

"You go to clubs?" Tony asked purposefully to tease his friend making Boy 1 conceal an angry blush in annoyance.

"Idiot," He hit Tony with a bag making him laugh. "You sure this is a good idea?"

Tony spread his legs like a teacher who had passion for lecturing. He convinced his college like his life depended on it. "Bro, this is the best idea you've ever brought up ever since we knew each other," He hit his friend's back. "Don't ruin this. You've acted like a saint for too long, this is the freedom you need. Who knew you went to clubs? I mean, what more did you do there than buying video games?" Tony smirked.

Boy 1 possessed a cold expression on, when he said this, "I didn't buy it."

"What?"

"I didn't pay money for it. He just gave it to me."

There was an abrupt silence atmosphere. No one said anything for a pretty long while, whilst having head bombarded with thoughts. Tony rubbed his palms together feeling a bit sweaty now. 

"So, what exactly did he say? A debt? I mean, bro. This thing is rare. It's a tad suspicious one could just freely give it it out."

Changing his mind, Boy 1 took the devises, walking away. "I should probably trash it."

In the speed of light, Tony approached him, lightly slapping his cheek. "Hey, hey, hey, snap out of it man. This is happening. I know two thousand people may have already died from playing this game, a few hospitalized but bruh, you don't know any of them. It could be that it's a prank… a joke or uh.. even a rival game company tactics so we wouldn't enjoy such wonderful game. I mean, how scary can this shit be?"

"You hear that?" Boy 1 suddenly asked, facing behind Tony who immediately started breathing in panic. "Hey, dude, don't do that. I see… You're trying to scare me." Tony quickly left where he stood to go near his friend more. There couldn't be anyone behind them, they were alone in the dark classroom. So the sound may be false.

Boy 1 sat on the chair. He confessed, "Seriously, this thing's giving me the chills."

Tony attacked, "You're a coward!"

"No I'm not!"

Tony climbed the desk, standing. "I wanna be free! Isn't that what you told me?! Probably why you even went to the club…"

He just looked at Tony, dazed at his act. He crumpled his face in anger. "Enough with the club. I was just passing by."

Tony immediately put on the VR box but his friend waited for a while before putting his own on. What they both saw now with the mask on was a messy bedroom with clothes all-over the ground.

"See, is this what you're sacred of, Boy 1?" Asked Tony, playing the game.

His friend still felt weird about it and removed his VR gear box. Tony was moving in the game. He was in another world, seeing different places thanks to the game. Tony saw a pool of water on the ground and demonstrated jumping over it, heading outside the house. As he moved in the game, he felt water wet his legs.

"Dude, this thing is real. What's even scary?"

"Uh… Tony?" He saw a figure behind him all of a sudden. Boy 1's heart suddenly did a backflip and didn't land properly on the perfect spot. An imperfect stunt one may describe it like that. Looking closely, there was now a huge corpse looking scary man at the back of his friend. 

He couldn't say a word. He averted his gaze, muffling his loud breathing but it was obvious he was scared. A sudden sound likened the whining of a door was heared, but in this scene there was no door being opened.

Tony was still paying the game, fighting goblins in the game. Wincing, Tony said, "Eww, whose this zombie man?"

"Tony, there's a zombie man in real life!" He screamed earning the attention of the big bloodied man with a sliding face. The man had blood allover his clothes. The suddenly-appeared zombie ran towards Boy 1, striking out his metal fingers and reaching for his face.

Aaaaaah!!!!
