Chapter 1
Running down the empty corridor of Happy Tree High School was a 15 year old girl with long (very) spiky crimson hair with many white flakes in it. 'Oh, dear I'm going to be late for my home room on the first day of school. How embarrassing.' She thought as she was searching for a certain door with her maroon colored eyes before she turned the corner to the right and sees the black door. 'There it is but it's a little strange that the color of the door is black.' She walks to the door while adjusting her red backpack strap nervously on right shoulder but she stops a few feet away so she could take a deep breath. Giving herself time to gather her courage before she steps into a room full with strangers.
However, the black door suddenly opens causing her to gasps as she takes a step back before slipping and falls on her bottom with a hard thump. Her red and white backpack falls off her shoulder right after her bottom hits the ground. "Ow…" She said in slight pain, not realizing that a handsome man with sky blue hair with eyes to match while wearing square-ish glasses and a white coat with three different colored pens in his white coat pocket was the one who scared her. "Oh, I'm sorry that I startled you." He says sincerely as he offers her his hand to help her off the tile floor. She looks up at him before nervously taking his hand and pulling her up until she got to her feet. The man in the white coat scanned over her body to see if she had any visible injuries from when she fell after letting go of her hand. When he didn't see any, he smiled gently at the red headed girl.
"You must be Flaky; it is a pleasured to meet you. I'm Professor Sniffles." He says as he offers his other hand for her to shake. She shyly takes his hand and shakes it gently. "I'll be your home room teacher as well as one of the researchers for the project you are a part of." He says after he lets go of her hand. She gives a small nod before saying in a shy voice "Nice to meet you, Professor." Then another voice came from the classroom.
"Professor, is it the student who was running late?" The voice was deep with just enough cheerfulness.
Professor Sniffles's eyes widen when he hears the deep cheery voice from one of his students.
He quickly turns and says loudly "Ah yes, so please be seated." The sound of students' walking quickly to their assigned seats and scooting their chairs against the floor to get closer to their desk filled the hallway for only a moment. Professor Sniffles turns back to Flaky then nods gently towards the classroom while holding the door for her. She nervously looks at Professor Sniffles who had a little smile on his face. "It's alright; everyone in the classroom is very friendly although they each have their own little… Unique features." He reassures her but lets out a small awkward laugh at the last thing he said. She blinks at him before she looks towards the classroom and takes a deep breath. 'Ok, here goes nothing.' She thought as she lets out the deep breath she took before she walked to the front of the classroom with all the eyes on her.
Professor Sniffles closes the door behind him as he walks to Flaky's right side and introduces her to the class. "Flaky, you can have the seat that is between Giggles and Petunia." He informs her as he points to the empty seat in the second row. She walks to her seat that was between a girl with pink shoulder length hair and had a red bow on top of her head on the right. On the left of her (now) assigned seat is a girl with blueberry blue and white hair tied in a pony tail with a pink flower on the side of her forehead. Flaky sets her backpack on the back of her chair before sitting in it and scooted closer to her desk then looks at the front of the classroom.
"Since everyone is here, I'll explain the project in a little more detail." Professor Sniffles says as he writes 'Kills' on the left side of the whiteboard then writes 'Killers' on the right. "As you all know, the project is about what kind teenager is the most likely to survive in a mass murder or rampage killing spree. However, that isn't the only purpose for this project. In fact, the project is to see if teenagers can work together maturely in order to survive or throw each other under the bus." Professor Sniffles explains before he takes lacer point out of his white coat pocket then points the red dot at the word 'Killers'.
"There are a total of five killers in this project and once a month, a killer will be randomly selected to do the rampage killing. Also we will not tell you who is the killer is or what methods they will use. I will tell you that three of them are male. One is a girl, and one can be either male or female. Is there any questions so far? " As soon as Professor Sniffles asked that question, several students raised their hand including Flaky who shyly looks around the class to see who had their hand raised. Wondering if some of them would be willingly be friends with her despite her hair being full of dandruff.
Professor Sniffles points at a boy with yellow-green hair that had… 'Wait, is that actual lollipops in his hair?' Flaky thought curiously as she pulls her arm down to lean towards the boy while she squinting her eyes to get a better look at his hair. Her maroon eyes widened in surprise when she confirmed that there were three actual lollipops in his hair, each one a different sizes. Meanwhile the boy asks his question "Can we fight the killer off or kill the killer?" Nutty asks in his deep but cheery voice. "Yes, you can kill them by any means necessary. However, please know that these killers are not amateurs. They are experienced and some are even trained. Also if you manage to kill a killer, the reward will be doubled which makes one billion into two billion and if you somehow kill another killer then the reward will double again." Professor Sniffles explains to the class. "Is there anymore questions?" A few students raised their hand. Professor Sniffles points to a blond boy that was sitting behind Flaky.
"Yes, Cuddles?"
"What happens if the killer kills all of us?" The boy asks curiously with his yellow eyes glancing at the paper on his desk which had his questions on it. "Well, if all of the killers manage to kill everyone without anyone escaping for all four years then their rewards will be their freedom." Professor Sniffles says in a serious tone. The tension in the classroom was thick with a mixer of frighten and worried looks on the students' faces. "But wait, four years? People only live and dead once so how can the project continue for four years?" Flaky asks fearing for her life as old frightening memories come back to her. "Actually, we put something in place to bring you guys back to life." Professor Sniffles says with a serious face. There was a moment of silence before everyone bursts out with laughter. "Yeah, right Professor." A student that had freckles and purple hair said through his giggles. Then Professor Sniffles looks at his watch before pulling out a small amount of firecrackers.
"Sorry, class. It's time to start the project." He says as pulls a lighter from inside pocket of his white coat and lights the wick of the firecrackers then quickly places them on floor. After that he makes a mad dash to the door while he shouts "GOOD LUCK!" before he opens and closes the door then locks it.
I hope you enjoy it. I worked hard on it and I plan on to update monthly. So, please review and follow.
