Academy of Death Unsolvable Puzzles
I wished it were a dream or a statue on the stretcher. And Yura tapped my shoulder from behind, smiling and greeting me enthusiastically. It was real; the reality petrified me. I lost the vigor inside me; my knees tumbled and crashed to the floor. It wasn't the physical pain that hurt me but my anguish that ravaged my power. My surroundings turned black.A girl's face hovered over me when I was half-conscious. Blinded by the light, my eyes flickered. Yura…. My eyes balled out. I almost jumped out of the bed to hug the girl on my bedside before I learned that it was Marin, not Yura, who wiped the tears in her cheeks."Marin… where is Yura?" I sat up on the bed. My body bent to her with my hands clutched in her shoulders, waiting for her answer. My inquiry only added more dumps into her eyes."She is gone.""No…." My palm covered my mouth, then ran down to my ribs to console my heartache. My chest overwhelmed; I couldn't breathe. "S-she c-couldn't l-leave me like this." My stuttering
Academy of Death A Surprise
Lanzo's words played in my head over and over even until I stepped my feet in the dormitory. His promise to protect me implied that something bad might be lurking at me. What kind of threat would endanger me? And why? The deeper I delved into this stuff, the more confused and anxious I became. The chip on my nape and the bloody tragedy in this academy just confirmed my prejudice that this institution might have a secret mission. The thought of this academy might be a part of human trafficking shuddered me. I immediately shooed that speculation away.Resuming my pace to the next floor, I passed by the receptionist in a dark blouse. A young woman with long raven hair was in charge today. Brad might be taking his leave. Her sincere smile welcomed me in the lobby. My focus drew to the bucket of chrysanthemum in her hand. "Ms.Dawson…. Someone sent this to you." That beautiful white flower moved to my hold in a second even though I hesitantly received it. Normally, I didn't accept anythin
Academy of Death Photography Competition
The rooftop had detained me for a while. Escaping in this place was my endeavor to stay away from Rein who acted weirdly recently. Actually, there was nothing wrong with what he did yet being around me would risk his life. To anticipate the obnoxious thing that might happen to him because of me, it would be better if I set my boundaries. His depressing face emerged like real before me. The disappointment smeared his faint contenance when I handed the chocolate back to him. Getting my rejection hurt him. That rolled my stomach with displeasure, too. "I do apologize but I can't have it." I tried to swallow the bitterness in my sentence. "If you don't like it, just throw it away." The smile on his lips withered and changed into a cold expression. He turned his back on me, then strode away. His response knifed my heart, not because his sarcastic words created the pain but my guilt stabbed me. The chocolate still lingered in my palm until I initiated to give it to the girl who passe
Academy of Death The Photograph
"Rein…. What are you doing in the women's locker room?" Instead of his defense, I faced his impish smile. He set his body free from the pillar he put his back on upon hearing the grumbles of two girls who happened to be walking by his side. His fingers scratched his scap. "Speaking of which…. Do you have the book we discussed yesterday?" My eyebrows raised, querying what he meant. "I am coming for the book." I got where his conversation led to . He feigned to act out having an appointment with me under those girls' scrutiny who now spied on him. Male intelligentsia were forbidden to access this room. And for those breaching the rule would bear the consequence of physical chastisement. "Could you please wait outside!" He obediently did my instruction. Luckily those girls no longer dwelled in their place; they got busy with their activity afterward. I hastily strutted out of the building. Rein reclined by the pillar with his hands folded over his chest. "Dear friend…" his yell i
Academy of Death Shane Dawson
My eagerness to uncover the photographer of the mysterious photo which had now been perpetuated on my lens churned in my head. The only Dawson I'd ever heard of was my own father. Could it be him? But, who was the young woman in the picture? Was she her classmate or just a random girl from his past? Why did it feel like this woman was so familiar? The more I sank into it, the more frustrating all of this could be. My fingers unconsciously shuffled my hair in perplexity. To relax, I laid my weary body on the bed. I wasn't physically tired but mentally exhausted. I wished I could skip the hardest part of my life in this Academy or the graduation day would come tomorrow. Sleepiness didn't knock me down no matter how many times my mouth had gaped in yawn. Bunches of things still controlled my mind and forced my eyes to keep me awake. Unable to sleep, I yanked the camera and turned it on. The picture of a young woman lingered on it. Her uninterpreted smile taunted whoever dove
Academy of Death Love Letter
"No, they have passed away." Her confession in a cold tone left me with shock. She walked back to her seat. "I am sorry to hear that." My soft words might not get to her ears. If she heard of Shane Dawson, Lanzo might have more information about him. But, interacting with him often wouldn't be good. Besides, he would know that I was inspecting the photo in the art gallery. He never liked me to unravel the mystery of this academy. Before my head could think of someone who might help, the academic's footsteps messed up everything in my mind. That man in a shady tuxedo started the class. And I forced my focus on the lecture until Marin's touch on my elbow startled my gaze at her. "I am thinking of conveying my feelings for Lanzo." Her low voice sounded like a murmur. My brows arched. "It's time for him to know that I have a crush on him." The lecture kept going. The academic didn't pay his heed to us who were now in chats behind his back. "Since when have
Academy of Death His Confession
Marin's quick steps brought her away in a short while. Her body had disappeared when I got downstairs. I felt regretful for having no chance to explain the truth that nothing happened between me and Lanzo. Her cry indicated that she misunderstood the situation. I kept wandering around the corridor to seek for her and ignored Lanzo's yell of my name. The parking lot could be her destination as the dusk almost came. Quickening my paces, I didn't let Lanzo's shout out intimidated me. Marin was stepping onto the bus when I set my feet on the bus stop. "Marin… " I huffed, sprinting toward the bus. Unfortunately, the door was swiping closed and the bus was taking its leave. No one in the bus heeded me, not even the driver. They should have noticed my existence through the side mirror. But, the bus continued. All the seats might have been occupied. Feeling fatigue all over my legs, I lounged on the bench with the concern of Marin's misunderstanding on me. I had to meet Marin to explain ev
Academy of Death Vanish
Peering through the glass window, the view of Marin lying on the bed grabbed my sights. Her teary eyes gazed at the boy facing down at her; she implored that boy to stay."Please, don't go. I can't live without you." Her husky voice of pleading Lanzo's compassion pierced my ears. I couldn't even budge my mouth which restrained the sadness inside me. I swallowed the lump of guilt into my stomach."Marin, you need to rest. Besides, the doctor has alerted me to leave." Lanzo turned around but his step reached nowhere. Snatching Lanzo's wrist, Marin prevented him from moving. "If you dare to take one step away, you won't see me for the rest of your life." Marin's caution choked me with dismay. I abruptly squatted in my place, blocking them from noticing my presence. I didn't notice what was going on between them yet I could still hear their debate."Marin...please...don't do this!""I love you." Marin's hopeless words didn't seem to affect him. He stood his ground. "I don't deserve yo
