{ PROM NIGHT }I walked back into my car and drove back home to go through the file Thomas had given to me. I was tired and I needed some rest. So far, Mr Dickson. and Akuma has been. winning and I need a game changer. My mind went back to Diana and I know Mr Dickson would give anything to have her but Akuma will not. I sat down thinking of a Plan B. There should always be a Plan B in case Plan A doesn't work. I drifted into a long sleep and the alarm woke me up. Looking at the time on the wall, I got up and hit the shower. It was the first prom night ever inside the campus and I know many of the student were coming to show off their wealth and affluence. I would have sat out but then, I didn't want to disappoint Judith. I don't know why she wanted me to be her date but I needed to take my mind off things anyways. I looked at the wardrobe to pick a fancy dress for myself and my eye spotted a sleek black suit hanging at the end. It was classic, with just enough modern flair to make a

{ THE GAMING SYSTEM CONTEST}All attention was shifted towards the podium. I looked back, and I couldn't see Rosetta in the ballroom. "I am glad many of you could make it by yourself tonight. I can see you all are enjoying the atmosphere. I would like to tell you that I am contesting for the post of president as the acting president would have to step down due to malicious behaviors." Mr. Dickson held the microphone, looking at each student. "I need your support because the youth are the salt of the world, and without you, there aren't any of us." He said, beaming with a smile, and they clapped their hands, showing his name. I rubbed my hand gently against my hair and remembered Shadow Blade's words. First, he was going to take over the nation and then the gaming system. We need to stop him from becoming president. I have done it once, and I am going to do it again." "We are with you, Mr. President." One of the students shouted, and the other roared with laughter. They were all havi

{ The Gaming System Contest: The Final Round }The room buzzed with anticipation as George and I prepared for the final round. The tension in the air was palpable, and I could feel every pair of eyes in the room fixed on us. The large screen above the stage displayed our avatars in dramatic action, their lifelike movements underscored by the thumping bass of the background music. This was it—the round that would determine everything. I looked at George who was confident that he was going to win the fight. A part of me had which the gaming contest was more of a physical fight than using our avatars as a game. Perhaps, Mr Dickson knew I was going to defeat George. It as a smart move on his part "Are you ready for the showdown?" Mr. Dickson's voice boomed through the speakers, his tone laced with excitement. The crowd erupted into cheers and chants, urging us both on. I wondered why he was so happy when he should show sign of anticipation, fear and agitation. The fear of uncertainty gri

{ DIANA SET FREE } Mr Dickson's voice echoed through the microphone as he congratulated George with a smile. " A round of applause for the winner as this year vest gaming contest so far." he shouted beaming wth a smile on his face. The gaming arena erupted into a loud roar as many of George's friend all ran to congratulate him. " Let settle down please. We now have a new champion and I think it is best we know who has the control in the university grounds. As we all know that Frederick has done his part over the few semesters, months and weeks. But is time we give it to someone with fresh innovative. Some who can lead us into the world beyond. This goes way above psychical fights. Please let give it up for George!" [ THE CROWD GO WILD ] As they kept chanting his name. I walked out of the podium ad didn't look back. I knew this was a mistake. Loosing to George was the begining of Akuma's war against the gaming world and the real world. My thought went back to what Mr Dickson was goi

{ DIANA FREED } Rosetta pulled away from the kiss, her face inches from mine, and whispered, "We can do this together." Her words were a lifeline, a brief moment of solace in the storm of chaos swirling around us. But even as her touch calmed me, the sight of Judith standing in the distance brought me back to reality.Judith stood under a street lamp, her figure illuminated by the soft yellow glow. Her expression was unreadable, a mask that betrayed nothing of her thoughts. As I watched her, I felt a pang of guilt mixed with determination. There was so much at stake, and personal feelings had to be set aside. A part of me wanted to do what a normal young man has to do but there was a lot at stake. I had lost the round and I knew what I had to do. I was a man of my word. "Let's go," I said, turning the key in the ignition. Rosetta nodded and settled into her seat, the tension between us momentarily eased by our shared feelings. As I drove through the rowdy streets, my mind raced. Th

{ NOT LEFT WITH A CHOICE} Diana looked at their faces, and she suddenly lowered her hands. "Why have you had me released because I know you didn't do this out of the goodwill of your heart?" She looked at everyone at the table. "You are right; I have no reason to have you free, and if you decide not to accept my proposal, I might decide to have you set back to the system," I replied. " Ah! I can see why I am here. Isn't my father causing trouble already?" Diana asked, grabbing the cup of whisky Thomas was having from him. She gulped down the drink and looked at me. "Let's hear it. I know I am not going to like it, but I would like to get out of the gaming system." We all looked at her as Diana threw her hair backward. She slightly crossed her legs and looked at me. "Don't just stare at me. Or do you still have some left-over feelings for me?" Diana taunted, and I smirked."Trust me, you won't be here if I don't need your help, but that doesn't mean I can't have you thrown back int

{ BROUGHT BACK TO LIFE }I looked at who the caller was and I felt a pang of fear. The thought of how to dispose of Diana's corpse came to my mind and beaded sweat formed on my forehead. I wrinkled my face as I looked at my phone and back at Diana who was lying on the floor. " What do we do?" Zack asked getting off his seat " And who the hell is calling You at this time of the night?" he asked with a furrowed eyebrow. I looked at everyone and I could sense their fears. " It is Mr Dickson." I manage to open my tight-sealed lips. " I don't know why you are panicking over the death of a person who shot you in the head." Judith's voice made me look at her " Are you telling me that what I did just now is right?" I looked back at her face. " Is it right to shoot you in the head?" she asked looking at everyone " I don't know but I am not dead. She is and the better we take care of the corpse the better. " I replied " And how do we do that? " Cassandra asked looking at my face." The same

{ DIANA REUNION WITH HER FATHER }My voice echoed in the room, my outstretched hand a symbol of unity against the brewing storm. The tension between Judith and Diana was palpable, but as everyone glanced at each other, a silent agreement seemed to form. Reluctantly, Judith lowered her gun, and Diana took a step back, still glaring but seemingly willing to cooperate."Alright, Fred. We’re with you," Thomas said, breaking the silence and stepping forward to clasp my hand. One by one, the others joined, creating a circle of unity "Good. Now let's figure out how to get Diana back to her father." I said, pulling out a large map and spreading it on the table. "We need a plan that makes it look like she was never here. We need to Mae him beige Diana find her way back to him all by herself." Diana looked at the map, her face serious. "I don’t like the idea of going back, but if it’s the only way to keep you all safe, I’ll do it. But we need to be smart about this. If what you are saying is

{ I AM BACK}Zack looked at me and was surprised. Most of the sympathisers were. "You were supposed to be dead?" Zack stammered, looking at me. "Let's just say I refuse to die." I replied with a smile. "Can you help her up?" I looked at Rosetta, who was on the floor with her eyes closed. Cassandra ran towards me and threw herself at me. She dobbed gently as she hugged me. I know I was the only thing she had left to be a brother. Everyone looked at me, and immediately the coffin was opened. The clergy looked at me and said, " This is a sign from heaven. Do you wish to share your death and return to life with everyone?" He said it with a smile on his face. I looked around to see the faces of so many students, all seated and staring at me with disbelief on their faces. I waited for the podium and grabbed the microphone. "I don't know where to start." I said it gently, with teary eyes. "I remembered my first day at the university grounds; I was just a teenager, but now." I looked at m

CONFRONTING TRAGEDY / THE BURIAL Zack, Richard, and Rosetta had a restless night, each consumed by their own thoughts on the events that had occurred. In the morning, the atmosphere in the mansion was filled with tension. The team assembled in the lounge, with a tense quiet atmosphere prevailing. Zack interrupted the silence. "We need a plan," he stated, his voice unwavering despite the inner chaos he experienced. "Jonas will keep going." We must carefully consider this. Judith was the one who replied first. "We must not allow him to escape from consequences. Jonas has hurt alot of people and now he must dance to the music. Fred wouldn't forgive us if Jonas managed to go unpunished." With red eyes from tears, Rosetta nodded. " I agree. However, we must be smart about all of this. We must not allow our actions to be dictated by our emotions."Diana looked around the room, her face showed determination. "We need evidence. If we can gather enough proof of Jonas's involvement in F

{ CONFRONTING TRAGEDY }Zack and Richard thought of a way to break the news to Rosetta. As they drove back to the mansion, they both pushed the responsibility of breaking the news onto her. "You should do it; you know I am just a member of Fred's crew. And besides, you know her more than I do," Richard said, gently trying to persuade Zack. "We both went because Fred trusted us. Now that he is gone, you are pushing the responsibility on me." Zack packed and looked at Richard. "I am sorry, but the news is going to be devastating to not only Rosetta but to everyone." Richard said and sighed. The two of them looked at each other and said nothing. Zack's phone buzzed, cutting the tension. "Who?" Richard asked, looking at Zack. "Rosetta," he said, showing him the phone. Thier heard beat fast as Zack picked up the call. "Tell me he is alright." Rosetta's voice was loud over the phone. "Can we talk when we get home? We are almost at the mansion." Zack quickly cut her shirt before she sa

{THE BRINK OF DARKNESS }"What is it going to be, Fred? Do I need to shoot her before I get you to talk? Tell me what you know about the system. I know you didn't have it destroyed." Jonas barked I looked at Rosetta and back at Jonas. "You need to believe me when I tell you that I had the system destroyed. What do you want from me?" I shouted in anger. "I want absolute power, and I want my face changed. I can do that with the power of the system, and you are going to help me.'" I looked at Zack and back at Richard. "I will do that if you let Rosetta go and have me as a hostage instead." I replied Emily looked at Jonas and nodded. Rosetta was immediately pushed towards Richard and Zack while I walked over to Jonas. "Take care of her." I looked at Zack as they walked out of the warehouse. "Now you are going to tell me what I need to hear, or I am going to kill you, Fred. You have taken a lot from me. You took my father and my sister and also turned my world upside down, and you are

{ JONAS MENACES}My mind raced as I considered the options. Reasoning with Jonas seemed impossible, but a direct confrontation was out of the question. Ineeded a plan that balanced both."Alright, let's gather everyone in the room," I said, looking determined. The crew moved to a hidden part of the classroom where we could discuss our next plan without being overheard."First, we need to find out where Jonas is holding Rosetta," I began. "Diana, can you get close to him and see if you can find any clues? You’re his sister; he might let something slip."Diana nodded, her face grim. "I’ll do my best. But if he’s involved in something big, he might not tell me everything.""That’s where we come in," Richard said, his voice steady. "We’ll need to keep an eye on Jonas without him noticing. We can set up a surveillance network around his usual haunts. Zack, you’re good with tech. Can you handle that?"Zack nodded. "I’ll get my equipment. We can cover the campus and any other places he frequ

{ ROSETTA KIDNAPPED }I slept with a smile on my face after I and Rosetta had made love. It was the first time we actually got intimate. I stared into her eyes all night before she finally fell asleep. The sound of the alarm woke me up, and I looked beside me. "Where is she?" My eyes flashed around the room as I tried to wake up. I rubbed my eyes gently, and I noticed there was a bit of a scuffle on the bed. I couldn't believe I had one good night's rest in a while, and everything was going back to being war for me. "Rosetta! Rose!!" I shouted, getting into my slippers. I walked through the hallway and stairs leading down to the main room. I was surprised to see a lot of broken glasses over my chairs, and the house was a complete mess. I quickly went to my CCTV footage, and I noticed it had been fired. "Was I drugged?" I ran my hands over my hair as I stared at the television right in front of me. I knew I needed to find Rosetta quickly. I couldn't believe I let my guards down, and

{ JONAS BACK }The university semester was coming to an end. A lot of preparation was going on for the graduating students. My joy knew no bounds because I was finally stepping into society. But little did I know a brewing storm was ahead. Many of the students were busy tying loose ends. Many were saying their goodbyes already, while others were focusing more on their studies. I knew I wouldn't have the power of the system again, so I need to focus more on my arithmetic. So far, Emily has been behaving herself, and I noticed that I couldn't find Alex and Jonas inside the school. I was just coming out of my department when I met with Emily. "What about Jonas and Alex? I don't think I have seen them this semester." I raised my eye brows. "I don't know. I promise to tell you everything, but recently, I noticed Jonas had been . distant. Do you want me to help you track them?" Emily looked at me."Track them? I thought you said you knew everything about them. Why are you really here, Emi

{ BETTER DAYS IN THE CAMPUS}The university was becoming stable, with each student minding their own daily activities. I walked through the corridor of the university, and everywhere seemed peaceful. I decided to sit down, and I looked back to when I became a part of the university. I remember being nothing, a loner who had always thought of staying low throughout my days here. I looked up to catch some of the pretty girls staring at me, and I laughed. I was becoming more of an icon by the day, with many of the students looking up to me. I felt a hand over my eyes, and I smiled. "Rosetta," I whispered softly, trying to get up to my feet. The hand moved slowly away from my face, and I saw it was Davina. "I think I told you to stay the hell away from me." I shouted in anger. "But I don't want to, Fred. I realise my mistake, and I would like to make amends. Can't you just give me the chance for old-time sake?" Davina said it with a sorry face. "Do you think I can ever forget what you

{ JONAS'S PLAN } Flora sighed, her eyes narrowing as she weighed Emily's words. "Okay, Emily. I'll talk to Fred. But understand this—if he says no, there's nothing more I can do. Your actions will speak louder than your words."Emily nodded fervently, wiping the last of her tears. "Thank you, Flora. I won't let you down, I promise."They parted ways, and Emily felt a flicker of hope. But she knew she had a long road ahead of her. She returned to Alex and Jonas, who were waiting for her back at the mansion."Did she buy it?" Jonas asked, leaning forward.Emily nodded. "Flora said she'd talk to Fred. But we need to be careful. She's suspicious."Alex smirked. "Suspicion won't matter once we have control of the system. We just need to keep them off balance until then."Emily didn't respond. Her mind was racing with the possibilities and the dangers that lay ahead. She knew she had to tread carefully if she wanted to succeed with the plan. The plan was simple. They need to know if I stil
