2: The Rules and guidelines

While they had gotten out of the back exit where there was no one near it-they could hear one of the reapers repeating all of the Rules and guidelines through an intercom system that was blaring throughout the entire campus.

"To keep everyone in the know about the rules, as long as you are within a safe zone you will not be killed. Your safe Zones are anywhere with the same color as your shirts. There are four safe zones for each color. Some are mixed some aren't. If the Prey comes into the safe zone you are in you are no longer safe, you will have to fend for yourself and help their protectors with protecting them. Now since people in the past have been naughty and have been killing their comrades we've implemented rules that ALL prey must go by as all of us reapers have agreed to use."

There was the sound of shuffling papers before they read of the rules.

Rule one: No one who is not a reaper is permitted to kill the prey and protectors

Rule two: Protectors MUST stay at the prey's side for as long as they are able to breath and live. Once they die the prey will have ten minutes to hide themselves or kill the reaper that found them if they can.

Rule three: All Prey must work together to survive-so even if you weren't chose you are to help the chosen prey out and give them advice if and when you see them.

Rule four: There is no sneaking out of Soul High, if you are found sneaking out you will be killed in front of the masses and the reapers will be killing without notice half of the population of that class.

Rule five: If the prey is able to disarm and kill the reapers the game will end and the prey will be able to leave graduating from Soul High as best in their class

Hearing the Rules over and over again Reyna knew she wasn't going to be the one that survived. She was too timid-she had no reason to think that Julio and Hyun would do anything to keep her from dying. When the three of them got to the next building they were instantly face to face with another reaper that was just about the same height as Reyna. The Reaper laughed hysterically.

"I killed the last prey so easily! You're not going to last if you don't check places before you go in prey!" The reaper said before they went straight for Reyna

Julio grabbed his sword from his side and instantly protected her before he looked behind him to her. "You have that wand don't you? Use it."

Reyna nodded her head and quickly pointed the wand at the reaper making their face and body be known as they wore clothes very similar to their own. Julio was stunned. "T-That one was a chick! So...they're a mixture of males and females?" Julio questioned

"Probably...let's go we need to find that item." Reyna said as she went up the stairs using her demonic wings to fly upwards

"Aww c'mon! You're a demon girl?!"

"Half demon half angel." Reyna corrected looking behind her as Hyun had picked up Julio placing him on his back as he went into a miniature version of his dragon form to keep up with Reyna.

"How the hell does that work? I didn't think there were half races." Julio asked confused

"Yeah well my parents are horny assholes that disowned me the moment they knew just how 'useless' I was to them." She said before she let out a small amused scoffed. "Astra was my eldest sister by the way. She's the one who convinced people to vote me out to be prey. She knew that whomever came back from this stupid bull shit was going to rule over the kingdom that my parents have under them. So far none of my siblings elder or younger have made any progress."

"That's fucked up." Hyun said sadly

"Yeah well so is she." Reyna said before she let out a sigh as they got to the top floor

They saw Avery waiting for them, he grinned widely seeing her. "Well-well, you're a demon huh? It's been a while since a demon girl was prey."

Reyna placed her angelic wings out which made Avery stop advancing her. "Wait a fuck...you're angelic and demonic?! Just who the fuck are you truly Reyna Militia?"

"I am the youngest child of the king and queen of the land of Militia. King Xavier is my father and Queen Emilia is my mother."

"We were told that a mix breed was going to be here and to keep away from killing them. No real pronouns were known about who the mixed breed was. We all signed an oath to keep the mix breed alive. So I cannot touch you." Avery said as he stepped away from the doorway he was blocking "Go on, this isn't a trick. I'm a man of my word."

Julio and Hyun stayed on either side of her while they went to the doorway before she rushed into the room. She saw that the room was a safe haven for C and D class students. One of the D-class students was holding the stick that would turn into the Mystical mystery item. She went up to them and held her hand out. "May I please have that?"

They gave it to her and she saw that it was an elixir of some sort, she turned the vile to the side to see writing on it 'Healing potion of strength'. "Huh...interesting." She muttered to herself.

Once she got out of the room she didn't see Avery in the hallway anymore. "Where did the reaper go?"

"Once you went into the room he left, he didn't say anything." Hyun stated

"Well fuck...Well let's go. I don't trust the words of a reaper." She said seriously

"Where to next?" Julio asked

"The building next door."

"Let's go then." Hyun stated

They left through the large window-as they did the rules and guidelines were no longer playing, instead the voice of Avery was heard.

"Attention all reapers, please meet me in the meeting room to discuss the newest prey. We have a SERIOUS problem with who was chosen as prey."

Reyna snickered a bit. "Probably should have told him we reverted two of his reapers-whoops."

When they got to the next building they didn't find any minions or reapers, so they were able to get the third item which was a scythe that looked just like Avery's just smaller. Reyna, Julio and Hyun all went to the next place and the same thing happened again-No minions, no reapers. And the announcements were dead quiet, which made the trio become very stealthy as they went to get the fourth object. When they got into the building they saw that it was a library and it was where A-Class was safe. Hyun and Julio stood in front of Reyna seriously.

"Either you all can help us find the Mystical item or you all can stay the fuck out of our way." Julio said seriously

One of the males came forward and Reyna narrowed her eyes. "What the fuck do you want Joel?"

"I know you are pissy at me cause I sided with Astra-but I want to help you out now Rey, There are two items here. Come with me." Joel said with his hands in his pockets

Silently she went with the male as Julio and Hyun walked beside her. "You know that guy?" Julio asked

"He's my cousin, he had a choice to chose who to support-Astra or I. He obviously chose to support Astra, which is why I fucking hate him." Reyna said annoyed

When they got to a table Joel slid towards Reyna two books. "Here."

There was nothing on the books other than the sign of the reapers until Reyna touched them. One book said 'Book of Knowledge', the other 'book of the dead'. She took them off of the table before she walked away from the table, she wasn't going to be nice to Joel since she had no reason to be kind to a male who wanted nothing to do with her who had actively stated that she wouldn't last as prey. As they got to another one of the rooms, they saw Avery and he looked rather somber.

"How many items do you have so far?" Avery asked

"Five."

"That's the most prey has ever gotten, not to mention you reverted two of my own. I'm impressed. Most have only gotten two at the most."
