"Taru! Wait up!"
A girl with long, jet-black hair turned around. Her ice blue eyes met with the smaller girl running towards her. She was short, 5"0 to be exact, she wasn't skinny, and you wouldn't call her fat, but she did look a bit, "chubby". Her hair, a dyed blonde, was put up into a high ponytail. She was, adorable. That's all you could describe this girl as.
"Yes? And I've told you, my name is Hotaru, not Taru!" She replied, sounding out every syllable for her. She checked her watch, 7:50 AM 3-21-2099
"Taru is much cuter! " She said smiling.
"You know something Reika?
"Hm?"
"You piss me off!"
The smaller girl hugged her around the waist. Hotaru gave a sigh as she kept walking. They had to go to school; today was the class field trip to "B. R. ISLAND" All they had been told is that,
"It's a survival trip, everyman for himself!" "Oh, and bring nothing but the clothes on your back!" A few of the girls protested, "this is 2099, we need hair products!"
As they arrived, a giant bus was there to transport them. There, Hotaru and Reika, met up with their friends, Yuu, Male 16, and Raven, Male 17. All were wondering what was going to happen on there ride o the island. A small man came up in front of the kids and said, "All will be placed onto the bus, from then we will arrive in port New Tokyo. We will travel to B. R. ISLAND VIA ferryboat. On the boat, you will be given detailed instructions as to why you are going, and what will happen. LOAD UP!"
All started loading onto the bus. One row and four seats, Hotaru, Reika, Yuu, and Lavon loaded onto the bus. Within the hour, they had arrived at "New Tokyo Port". All were loaded onto the ferry; there were 267 children on the ferry in total. Ranging from ages 14-18, for this was a high school. A dark man, wearing only black clothing, stepped onto a platform. "All you Maggots! Listen up! This island, BR, is Battle Royale Island, you will each be given a weapon, and within 48 hours you and 62 different schools will be there. Your objective is to be the last one alive. There are bodies of water, trees with fruit, and wild animals you can hunt. Within one week, all who are alive will be rounded up and taken to BR II with winners from other schools." From then on, all the dazed children were rounded up and given a weapon. Raven, Yuu, Hotaru and Reika all agreed to not fight each other. Yuu spoke: "schools range form sizes, the max would be 300 right? So 62 schools times 300 is how many people will be there." Reika was in sobs. She didn't want to die. Hotaru didn't know what to do. Yuu wrapped is arms around her. She let her headrest in his chest.
The boat docked and they were given the following instructions. "Your guns have 40000 rounds of laser ammunition, the guns will be allowed to shoot of tomorrow morning 6 AM, until then all of them are inactive and controlled by people back at headquarters. In the bunch, there is one gun, which is broken, good luck he said as the ferry took off.
Everyone was dumb struck and in awe, was this a cruel dream? Is this really happening? Kill my classmates? The students were confused, but soon, all was in groups of alliances. Raven sat down sadly. He didn't know what to do. He refused to kill anyone, this was ridiculous. Reika sat by him and attempted to cheer him up, Hotaru sat down with them and Yuu followed. In the morning, they knew it was going to be a fight for their lives. Hotaru spoke, "Until the morning, please let's just forget everything and be together?" Everyone nodded.
