CHAPTER 2 (Introductions Part 1)
"UP AND AT 'EM EVERYONE" a boy in a uniform says
A girl in a black fancy looking jacket slowly sits up saying "Where the hell are we...? And who are you guys...?"
The man with the uniform responds with "Well...I'm afraid I don't really know that either. Let's see if we can try and figure out why we're here by TALKING ABOUT IT!" he thrusts his arm into the sky.
Knowing I don't need to listen to this much longer I cut in. "I'm gonna save you guys the trouble. I know your confused and I am too. Just come with me and we're gonna figure out what's going on..." I say motioning them over. "To start I know you all were probably on your way to Hope's Peak and then the next thing you know you were her-
I girl I didn't notice at first springs forward saying "OH YEAH!" remembering that's where she was headed.
I cough knowing she didn't mean to interrupt and continued. "Well me and 3 others woke up a while ago and split up to see if we could find any more people. We said if we found any we would meet back at the place we started. So...if you guys don't mind I'd like to take you there so we can work out what's going on with everyone we find?"
The boy in the uniform comes close and says with a low voice "Well since your here I'll tell you that my name is Joey and I am the ultimate-
I cut him off not trying to be rude but having an urge to get back to the others, "Let's uh...leave the introductions for later so everyone can hear them.
He embarrassingly looks down and replies "Oh yeah...sorry"
We walk for what seems like a while. I hear the others introducing themselves in the back but I focus on finding my way back to where I started. We finally find it and as the original area is in sight I see Jarrett and Jonathan followed by groups that they found. We round up the people we had found and I lean over to Jarrett and Jonathan and ask "Do you think this is everyone? I hope there's no one else that we haven't found..."
"I mean there's 15 here so there must be one more..." Jonathan whispers.
I look through the group of people we found and get the feeling that I know who's missing. As I'm about to figure it out, Megan walks from the direction she was supposed to go and with surprise says "Whoa that's a lot more people than there was before..."
We all sigh and Jarrett walks over to Megan groaning "Megan...you Were supposed to look for others"
"Ohhhhhhhhh" she babbled. "You guys ran off before I knew what was going on so I just went and started exploring" she lets out a small laugh.
"Well" Jarrett replies. "Since we're all here we should get acquainted. Ben why don't you go talk to everyone! Since we are practically classmates I guess we should at least get to know each other. Maybe someone will remember the reason why we're all here" he suggests.
I agree with him and look into the small but also loud crowd to see who I should talk to first. As I go up to someone I get cut off by a boy about my height wearing sweat pants. "Why are you doing this?! It obviously doesn't matter WHO everyone is. What we need to know is where and why we're here. Who needs introductions when I'm already pretty sure I don't wanna be friends with any of you..."
It's surprising how much energy and tenacity he has. I guess he's not one to make friends too quickly. Maybe he's just scared like I am and this is how he shows it. I'm sure he's actually a pretty nice person in other situations...
"Well since your already all over me" he says. "I might as well tell you so we can get on to more important things" He takes a pause then declares "My name is Tanner and I'm the Ultimate Activist. Damaging the earth, gender equality, pretty much anything I like or strongly dislike I will fight about. So if I think you did something wrong then get ready to be persecuted because I do not hold any exceptions against anything I love!"
It feels like if I say something remotely wrong towards him I'll be killed. It's probably best to be careful of what you say around him. His overall look confuses me as well. I can't tell if he is really into fashion and style or not...His hair, all styled and primped up gives me a different opinion then the way he's dressed. Since I felt like my conversation with him was done I walk away to talk to someone else. I spot a girl about my height with long red hair standing all by herself. I go up to her and stand there waiting for her to say something. After a while she softly says "Hey...so what do you want?"
"I wanted to introduce myself and get acquainted with you" I softly respond back
"Oh sure" she said. "Go ahead"
"Um ok well I'm Ben and I'm the Ultimate Lucky Student...or so I think. Apparently that's someone else's talent as well so I'm actually not to sure right now" I complain.
"Alright" she says with a sigh. We sit in silence again for a minute or two before she again softly chimes in "I'm Katie and I'm the Ultimate Artist. I'm gonna tell you right now it's best not to piss me off. Oh and if I happen to say something mean to you, don't feel special because I'm mean to everyone" she says as she slightly grins. She seems a little scary but again I'm sure she's a nicer person in other situations!
As I turn around a big guy is standing right in my face. He's short and has a raggedy looking suit on. "Hey hey hey! How are you!" he screams.
"Um I'm alright I guess" I respond
"THAT'S GREAT!" he says while he slaps me on the back. He pauses then blurts out "So tell me do you come her often...?" He makes a face to go along with his "joke" that actually somewhat sells it. I let out a small snicker surprised that I actually think that was funny. "HAHAHAHAH" he laughs. "Of course you don't! NONE OF US HAVE EVER BEEN HERE BEFORE!" His laughter just seems contagious. Just listening to him laugh and tell his terrible jokes make me wanna laugh with him. "Well if you couldn't already tell, I'm Brett and I'm the Ultimate Comedian!" he makes the face again. I let a small snicker slip out.
"That's interesting" I say letting out a laugh.
"So you wanna hear another joke" he laughs
"I'm good for now" I say both wanting to get away and also to get to the other students.
He laughs "ALRIGHT COOL! NICE MEETIN YAH! HOPE WE MEEEEET AGAIN!"
He seems like a pretty funny guy even considering his "jokes". I turn around and see a girl in a punk rocky looking jacket doing something very weird in the corner of one of the buildings. I don't know if she's stretching or what but it's kinda unsettling. I go up to her and say "Hey...?"
"Sorry just doing some exercises" she says calmly. "Sooooooo you know what's going on here or..."
"I have as much of an idea as you do" I respond
"Well this really sucks" she groans. "I was looking forward to go this new and prestigious school and take part in some of their world renowned plays. I'm Sydney and I'm the ULTIMATE ACTOR!" she roars. "I don't know if you'll get a chance to see me perform but I hope you'll enjoy it if you do get to! I hope we can at least get along while we're stuck in this shady place..."
She actually seems somewhat normal...Other than those weird screaming and moving "exercises" she was doing earlier of course. She really does look like an actress though. Perfect skin, silky hair, and a seemingly normal and nice personality! The only thing a little different about her is the black jacket with spikes on her shoulders she has on. It seems to fit her personality well enough though. I'd love to see her perform if I ever get the chance!
"EYYYYYYY I WAS WAITING UNTIL YOU WERE DONE TALKING TO HER SO I COULD ACQUAINT MYSELF WITH YOU AS WELL!" A cheery short, brunette girl stands in front of me eagerly awaiting and introduction.
"Well I'm Ben and I'm-
"Before you do that I should be polite and tell you mine!" She cuts me off but I can see she's excited so I let her continue. "My name issssssssssssssss Mckenna~! And right now your probably asking what's her special talent?! Well I will conquer your questions and reveal that I am Mckenna the ULTIMATE OPTIMIST!" she grins. She shakes my hand "It's a pleasure to meet you good sir! I hope we may get out of this god forsaken place together!"
"Me too...?" I say with unease.
