Academy of Death Photography Exibition
The tense inExhibitionlong with Lanzo's roaring voice. No one dared to intervene as his hand hauled the boy's collar. In a second, that boy's body ended up on the crystal clear floor with a grimace on his bruised temple after it crashed to the ground. My effort to mediate them was all in vain since the incident happened in a blink of an eye. The bodyguard took the boy out of the room. Meanwhile Lanzo ambled toward his seat like nothing occurred; he even ignored the glasses boy who thanked him. The situation got back to normal in a few minutes. The food silenced us. Next thirty minutes, the intelligentsia emptied the room. My punishment kept me in the breakfast room for the next ten minutes. I had to assist the staff to clean the table. "You did a great job today, Ms. Dawson." A praise came out of that beautiful smile of one of the staff. "And to be honest, I appreciate your bravery to handle the hard situation this morning.""That sounds exaggerated. I did nothing. It was Lanzo wh
Academy of Death The Departure
The screen in the classroom was on; the head of the academy's face popped up. Information revealed. He announced that we had to go to the hall. In only a few minutes, the classroom was vacant. The intelligentsia marched toward the auditorium. There might be an important issue he would convey. Ha had been on the stage welcoming us when we were entering the hall. His expression turned frigid with our presence as if he withheld the tense under the cold atmosphere. What would he tell us this time? Was it about the rumor Rein told me last night?"I summoned you here as I have an important announcement for you. The participant of Student Exchange has been selected. And she has held her solo exhibition as a part of reward for being elected in the event. The host academy has contacted me. So, Dylanesa Dawson will leave for the host academy tomorrow." That news left me with shock. The mumble crowded the hall. I was just dumbfounded, not knowing if I should be happy or sad. It was too sudden.
Academy of Death Somewhere
My intution whispered there was something wrong with this journey. The way they acted and treated me asserted they had bad intentions toward me. But I was powerless. I couldn't come up with a single idea how to deal with this situation. And regret haunted me; if only I had listened to Lanzo and withdrawn from the program, I wouldn't have experienced this nightmare. I was just afraid that they were kidnappers or the worst, a part of human trafficking mafia. The car devoured the street, passing through the bumpy road. It caused instability of the vehicle. My head almost touched the ceiling. Luckily, the seatbelt saved me. My stomach roiled in nausea. Puke threw out of my mouth. In no time, the white slimy wetted my laps. Grabbing the handkerchief, I was trying to clean it. However, a snarl from the blonde haired men sitting next to the driver jerked me up. Resentment had masked his stern face when my eyes met his. "How dare you dirty the car with your puke?" I had no time to respond
Academy of Death Unexpected Surprise
"Is it you, Mom?" With my palm on my mouth, I walked toward that woman whose body kept moving forward. "Mom…" I called her again but no response I heard from her. Nevertheless, her smile hadn't gone even until our distance was only one meter away."I am not your mother, darling." Her smirk frightened me even though she did nothing which could harm me. "You must be yearning to meet your mother so much that you hallucinated.""No, your face….""My face? Sometimes, someone's face can outwit people, darling. I may look like your mother. But, I am not her." I stuck where I was in silence, enchanted by her words. Then, her hand gradually groped jer face, peeling something from it. She wore a mask. In less than a minute, that mask unsealed and revealed her real face. A woman with purple orbs popped up. I moved backward. "Who are you?" "Does it matter for you to know who I am?" Her eyes dilated while her head leaned toward me. It was as if her mouth wanted to gulp me whole alive. This woma
Academy of Death Beauty Laboratory
The megaphone no longer bombarded me with that woman's huge voice; I removed my palms from my ears and subconsciously flopped on the freezing floor. Who brought and detained me here actually? Who was that woman and what was her intention? If it was the head of the academy's idea to trap me in this remote place, why could he do this to me? Imagining how cruel he was, kidnapping and imprisoning me in this remote place churned my abdomen with terror and loathe at the same time. No matter what, I wouldn't let this situation suck all my hope; there had to be a door to flee as there was a way to take me into this room. Having this thought, my motivation to look for a clue of getting out of this room boosted. With my right hand propping my shivering body, I kneeled to stand on my feet. I did it in my third attempt. Feeling mentally exhausted, I wobbled close to the wall so that my hand could grope on it to help me keep stable. I carefully followed my feet ' lead with my palms sticking on
Academy of Death SUE
That psycho woman's sneer clouded her striking red lips which mumbled her name in a cold tone. "My name is Sue." It was as though even her name could summon the evil to confine me in the darkness. Completing her introduction, she didn't take her eyes off me. Her glare bewitched me. The horror reflected from her pupils shot me with a shiver that coursed through my spine. That lasted for a few minutes before she fished something out of her robe's pocket, a needle with pink liquid inside it. I could imagine the syringe flanked between her fingers needled my whole being, impeded the oxygen from my lungs, and left me lifeless. Even imagining it, I felt like throwing up with a severe headache. The effect of the substance she previously injected even still immersed my body into numbness. What prevailed was only my despair. Death flashed in front of me, hunting me like a shadow. The rhythm of my heart beat irregularly as a response to the hazard I might encounter in a second as now Sue
Academy of Death First Meeting
SueThe door intimidated me through its silent stare. I was supposed to be in my class ten minutes ago but the trouble on the way to school impeded me from coming on time. The professor must have been inside, giving the lecture. I could sense the quietness in the room; no one had intrepidity to make a noise in his class. Lateness was the worst of all mistakes. I dropped my gaze to the floor in front of the door, hesitating whether to stay or leave. Compelling to bark into the classroom meant that I had to take the risk of being punished and scolded; the professor wouldn't easily let me free of the punishment. On the other hand, my father would label me as a loser if I missed this class. He was so strict that I couldn't even breathe under his surveillance. Doing anything as he required was compulsory. That weighed me down like putting piles of stones on my shoulders. However, as his daughter, obeying him was a must. There was no time for me to complain as the time was running. I had t
Academy of Death Graduation Day
SueHis face danced in my head. Shane made my days. His presence had brought another level of happiness to my life since our first meeting. I could not deny that I smiled more often these days. Mike finally noticed the change in me. That made him wonder what I'd been through that I acted differently. I thought of sharing with him about how I felt. However, considering that my father would find out, I decided to keep it for myself. As a stringent person who wanted me to dedicate my life to education only, he wouldn't agree that I had affairs with any men in the academy during my study even if it was just a friend. It was only Mike, the one he supported, to have a relationship with me as a companion. "You don't have any class today?" I was startled with Mike's abrupt coming. "Do you have free time?" The last few days, I was so busy with my study and photography class that I had no time for my friend."I have one more class but I am free now.""What about having lunch together?" Hone
