"Come on, you scared?" a teen teased his friend as they stood outside a rumored-to-be-haunted house.

The questioned teen then shook his head, he talked himself into this. It was him who wanted to follow them and tried to be part of a group. But he wasn't expecting the initiation to be like this.

"Don't back up on me now, Kuosu." a girl from the group growled as she was growing impatient, standing under the sun wasn't good for her skin.

Without saying another word, Kuosu took the first step into the house. He shook the moment the door creaked open but didn't back down. The inside of the house looked really dark despite light shining through the open windows. The thing that chilled Kuosu the most was the chandelier, it looked as if they was a body hanging on it.

'It's probably just a sheet or something.' with that thought in mind, he decided to head towards the stairs.

Two seconds into walking up the stairs, the door slammed shut, Kuosu jumped before feeling something crushing his neck.

-Outside-

"Whoa, what was that?!" a boy with cream-coloured hair jumped as he heard the door slam shut.

The previous teens started pulling on the door when they heard Kuosu's scream. When that didn't work, they pushed, to no avail, the door won't open. The screaming got louder as time dragged on.

"Stand back!" the teen said and proceeded to kick the door.

"Gamma, it's not going to work!" the purple-haired teen, the one that teased Kuosu, stated.

Though Gamma was not willing to give up, his best friend was trapped in there and he is going to blame himself if his friend is found dead.

-Inside-

Kuosu couldn't see whoever it is that was crushing his neck, though by trying to push them away, he can then tell whoever it is, it is a girl. Judging by her height, she was probably just a tad older than him or maybe even the same age as he is. The girl has long fingernails digging into Kuosu's skin to the point Kuosu think it might be a possibility to just bleed from the small wounds around his neck.

"You shouldn't have come here." the voice sounded sweet, almost like a fairy tale princess's.

The grip on his neck loosened as the door busted opened. In a flash, the figure before him disappeared, and his friends all came running towards him.

"Kuosu! Are you okay?! Answer me!" Gamma shook his head as he saw the girl take Kuosu by the shoulder and started shaking him violently.

"Beta, you're going to kill him before he even gets to wake up." Gamma stated blankly as he saw Alpha look around the whole place.

-Dorm Room-

The four of them went back to their dormitory and changed out of their school uniforms. Though Kuosu sat on his bed holding his knees against his chest, still too shaken up about what he saw in that damn house. When he told his friends what happened, they didn't believe him and thought he was just hallucinating out of fear. He took a look around the house and sure enough, it was empty. But when he entered the house was filled with old furniture, and the hanging chandelier was gone as well, so is the girl.

As much as he should feel relieved about it, he just felt even more uncomfortable, the feeling of those hands tightening around his neck still lingers, and he even have the bruises still. Alpha resorted to believing that he must've had something that just made him hallucinate and choke himself to rid of whatever he saw.

"Hey, you okay?" Gamma placed a hand on his best friend's shoulder, he barely and almost never see Kuosu shaken up over something like this before.

Okay, maybe that one time but he wasn't going to relieve that particular memory after Kuosu tried so hard to forget whatever happened in the past.

"I've been better." Kuosu won't show that he's weak.

Gamma knows exactly what it feels like to be weak in front of others, he himself had put up an arrogant front so he wouldn't seem he was affected by his parents' words. Putting up with his bullies so as now even they feared he might be insane when he laughed after he was beaten up.

"Hey, bros! What's happenin'?!" of course, someone just had to burst in uninvited and who else would it be but Gamma's boyfriend.
