"Now I'm going to explain the rules for you."
Tenchi turned around to see the door shut. Now she was trapped. Tenchi sighed, walked along the desks scattered with unconscious children,
These poor bastards had been chosen out of all the other classes in all the schools across all Japan. Picked at random, to come to this deserted island and slaughter each other.
The same had happened to her. When she had first come here. Woken up in this strange classroom; in the middle of the night. She was terrified.
Tenchi sat on an empty desk at the back of the class. Her legs dangled over the edge, she began to hum again. Same tune she had hummed in the cell. This soothed her a little but she was still well aware that in an hour or so she would be a murderer again or be murdered.
Some of the kids laying around her began to wake up. Names were being called out. Natural to try find someone to comfort you when you're scared.
Like she had been trying for six stupid years, someone you trust. Why was she thinking about this? She needed a fucking plan to get out of this slaughterhouse alive.
Tenchi had beginners luck the first time. Now she had to rely on instincts. But it wasn't in her to kill. Was it? She had to kill before, to save her own skin.
She had no time to ponder on the thought. A car pulled up outside and a woman got out. She walked towards the building. Minutes later the woman walked in. She put a small pile of paper work on the desk and turned around. The lights flicked on.
"Hello, I am Ms. Astien and I am you're cover teacher for this lesson. Now today's lesson is called The Battle Royal. Now does anyone know what this is?"
Most faces looked blank. Although a few people suddenly looked shocked. Only one shaky hand rose. The teacher looked at the hands owner, a young boy with short hair and glasses."Yes Mr..."
The boy looked around. "Tetsumo. It's a law passed by the government, for kids to go to an island and kill each other. The law was passed because the government felt that children where too relaxed. "
Ms. Astien nodded. "Indeed. You are the class that get to play this year. Now we are going to watch a little video to explain to you all exactly what battle royal is. Please watch carefully.
Ms. Astien pressed the play button on a video player and a young girl flashed onto the screen. "Hello, you are the lucky winners drawn from a lottery to play Battle Royal 2012"
The teacher sat behind the desk flicking through the paperwork. Every now and then looking up to check the class.
"Right I'm going to explain the rules for you. You are on a deserted island about 10 kilometres wide and long. The island has various buildings in it that you can take refuge in."
"The island is built into sections. During the game this areas can become danger zones; which means. Right about the necklaces your all wearing." She pointed at the necklaces she had hanging around her own neck, as she did the rest of the class all checked to see if they had one.
"These are waterproof and shockproof they have an explosive inside so if you are in one of the danger zones then BOOM.
Some of the kids started pulling at the necklaces trying to get them off but soon stopped. "The necklaces will explode if you try taking them off as well so they are permanent."
A door opened at the back of the class and in came more soldiers pulling trolley along full of bags. The camera on the TV withdrew so you could see a table and a bag. "When you leave you will take a bag like this one." The woman pulled out a bottle of water and a loaf of bread, "The bag will come with a single bottle of water and a loaf of bread."
The woman pulled an axe out. "Each bag has a random weapon in it. You will also receive a map, compasses and pen." The camera zoomed in so you could only see from her torso up.
"We understand that girls may need personal items so you are allowed to take your bags, when I call your name out collect your own personal possessions and a bag and leave."
The class was frozen. Nobody moved. "Girls 1. Asmi, Satomi " Satomi didn't dare to move. "Satomi move it!!" snapped an officer. Satomi jumped up and ran for the door as she did a girl grabbed her arm, "Wait for me." She cried to her. Satomi grabbed the bag thrown at her and ran out of the door without a word.
"Boys 1. Aki, Sherrow." Sherrow rose from a group huddled together, mostly boys. He looked at a boy beside him picked up his blue bag, caught the green bag thrown at him and fled through the door.
"Girls 2. Amsen, Takki´" A small fat girl rose from the corner, tears rolled down her chubby cheeks. She walked towards the door. When the bag was slug at her she let it hit her in the chest and fall to the floor.
"I will never play your stupid game!" she screamed. Takki raised her hands to her eyes whipping the tears away while walking out the class mumbling to herself. "Ruin my dreams, assholes!"
soon Yocki Atikay, Kalla Dim-sim, Shi dushbai, lalin faye, Lai-ma Hi, Kari Hannei, Karramari, Ishi kai- Yada, Soyan Kashima and Megami Kai-yada had all left.
"Boys 7. Kemarha Suzzaki." Suzzaki got up, he slid a small smile to Tenchi. She watched him catch the bag slung at him and disappear. She wondered what he was going to do.
"Girls 8. Kamasaki, Tenchi "Tenchi automatically stood up. She took a swift look around as if to warn those around her not to mess with her. She walked forwards lightly catching the bag lobbed at her she slowly walked out of the door, not looking back.
