Hour 2: 41 Students Remaining

Day 1

2am

As the 41 surviving students begin their journeys in The Program, onef student's journey has gotten of to a bad start. Deep in a forest located north of the starting area, Girl 2 Deni Effcans is clutching her twisted ankle. After leaving the school, Deni ran straight ahead non-stop, trying to get away from as many wannabe murderers as she could. She felt pretty confident that she could get away safely since only 3 people left before her, Boy 1 Abraham Beckham, Girl 1 Bethany Caesar and Boy 2 Carlos Diablo, and out of them, only Carlos seemed like a major threat to her life. But due to their being guns out here, I guess everybody's a threat. She was covering some good distance until she twisted her ankle in a ditch while trying to navigate her way out of the forest. Now she is sitting next to a tree, sorting through her supply bag and her personal bag, waiting until she can once again walk without pain.

Deni is 5'7"ft, she has long blond hair and is in the eyes of many people, 'the most evil person at Hervey Bay High'. Deni is a member of 'The Angels', a student clique full of cheerleaders and jocks. Of it's members, 9 are in The Program, including Deni. The other members are Girl 5 Kate Latvaniemi, Boy 9 Taylor Walters, Girl 11 Ashley Balfour, Boy 12 David Edmanson, Girl 12 Carly Darlington, Girl 8 Sam Tanner, Boy 13 Freddy Geissler and the deceased Girl 7 Prue Quill.

Deni is the leader of 'The Angels' and the cheerleading squad. Ashley is her second in command. Carly is their enforcer, taking care of anyone foolish enough to get in their way, girls and boys. Sam was only accepted into the group for eye candy, so it would be easier to woo more people to their side. Sam is very beautiful and disagrees with almost everything the group does, and is on the verge of leaving them. Prue is only in their group because she does all of their homework. Kate is the latest addition to the team, serving as a servant of sorts. Deni is the most feared person in the whole school, she runs the school, it is her school. She loves to cause misery on those she deems lesser than herself, which is everyone except her best friend Ashley.

After a few minutes of searching, Deni finally finds what she is looking for, her mobile phone. She swiftly turns it on and goes straight to her phone book. She dials Ashley's number and brings the phone to her ear. After a few seconds of dialing, somebody picks up on the other line. A female voice begins to speak.

"All phone calls within the playing zone of The Program are restricted. Have a nice day!", the voice said, almost sounding electronic.

"Fuck", Deni whispers as she hangs up and places her phone beside her supplied weapon, a Desert Eagle.

Deni leans back against the tree and closes her eyes. This can't be happening, I was meant to be somebody, I was meant to graduate and go to college, I was meant to become a model and a fashion designer, I was meant to move to Paris, I was meant to be known worldwide, I was meant to live... She quickly sits back up and opens her eyes. Wait a minute, she said all 'phone calls' are restricted, but not text messages, maybe I can still contact them... She quickly grabs her phone and tries sending a text to Ashley, and it works. Thank god, maybe now I can finally go to Paris...

She sends a text containing the message "MEET ME AT THE FARMHOUSE, DON'T BRING ANY OUTSIDERS" to all of her contacts who are on the island (Ashley, Kate, David, Carly, Sam and Prue). According to her map, Deni needs to head east in order to arrive at the farmhouse. She quickly rises to her feet, makes sure she is able to continue moving on her sprained ankle, throws her mobile phone into her supply bag, grabs her Desert Eagle, whips her bags over her back and begins to head east while wielding her Desert Eagle.

As she journeys towards the farmhouse, Deni's mind begins to wander to her 6 friends and their 'potential'. Sam and Prue will be to much of a liability, they will have to be dealt with quickly so they don't cause trouble later. Ashley and Carly would be good bodyguards, so I will have to keep them around for a while. Kate, I'm not so sure about, hell, I hardly know anything about her so I guess I will have to wait and see what weapon she received and what kind of state she is in. That just leaves David, oh David, you think you can fuck with me, well, it seems I will have to show you the full extent of a woman's wrath...

Oh yes, Deni is definetly playing the game. In her eyes, her friends are just tools to be used to ensure her own survival and everybody else is just an obstacle in her way to achieving true greatness. But unknown to Deni, a lot of her friends realised at the start of the game that Deni will try to survive no matter what, even if it means sacrificing their lives. Hence a majority of them will not reply to her message. Ashley and Carly are the only ones who currently trust Deni and are on their way to meet her at the farmhouse. Kate, David and Sam do not trust Deni and suspect her of attempting to murder them once they step foot in the farmhouse, so they chose to ignore her message and are currently executing their own plans. Due to her being dead, Prue cannot reply to Deni's message, but that fact is currently unknown to Deni due to her leaving before Prue.

Girl 21 Crystal Roberts is hiding behind a tree in the forest, her back pressed against the trunk of the tree. Her nail bat at the ready, Crystal is ready for battle. A few seconds ago, Crystal heard footsteps from up ahead, and they were heading in her direction. Crystal quickly sprung into action and leaped for the nearest piece of cover, which turned out to be a nearby tree. Ok Crystal, your ready for this, you've been preparing for this moment for the last hour, your first kill. Just quickly get it over and done with, end their pain quickly so you can move along and continue. Crystal is trying to decide between two different courses of action. Should I just wait until they get closer and jump out and hit them directly in the face or should I sneak around the tree and hit them from behind, thus reducing my risk of potential damage?

But it is too late, the source of the footsteps is only a few feet away. Crystal must act quickly while she still has the element of surprise. OK, here goes nothing. Crystal quickly jumps out from behind the tree, but unfortuantly for her, she misjudged the strangers position. Instead of jumping out quickly and getting a clear shot at her opponents face, she barges into them by accident and knocks them flat on their back on the ground. Crystal quickly regains her footing and raises her nail bat high above her head, ready to bring it down hard.

Staring back up from the ground is Boy 1 Abraham Beckham, his face shining in the moonlight, baring no emotion at all. No fear, no excitement, just nothing. He is holding his Mac-10 in his left hand. Just do it Crystal, do it, just swing down and aim for his head, do it, put him out of his misery. Crystal begins to hesitate and her arms start to shake. It's easy just do it.

"Do it", Abraham said from the ground, staring back up at Crystal, waiting for her to cease his existence.

Crystal's arms begin to shake more violently and she is finding it harder and harder to breath. I can't! She lowers her arms and the bat, turns around and begins to walk away. Why couldn't I do it, it was an easy kill. Just one good hit and it would all be over. Then I could have just moved on, with the hardest part, my first kill, out of the way. She hears Abraham get up behind her and she hears his bag rustle, like it is being opened. And now I'm dead. She closes her eyes and holds her breath, waiting for Death's embrace. But there is nothing, no gunshots, no stab wounds, no explosions. Crystal slowly turns around and sees Abraham staring right back at her.

"Why...why didn't you kill me?" Abraham asked, obviously confused by his current vital status.

"Because...because...though I hardly know you...you seem like a good person...a good person undeserving of dying in a place like this, at least not for now anyway", Crystal replied, improvising that whole sentence. Why couldn't I kill him? And how am I meant to know if he's a good person. I see him getting bullied a lot, so he can't be that bad. Can he? Well I can't fuck up like that again, my life depends on it.

Crystal turns back around and begins to walk away, leaving Abraham behind. But she hears the sound of running from behind her, so she turns around to see Abraham standing in front of her again. Crystal displays a puzzeled look on her face. Does he really want to die that badly? Unsure of what to do, Crystal slowly begins to feel around in her supply bag, looking for her nail bat, while trying not to alert Abraham to what she is doing.

"Can.....can I come with you?" Abraham asks, looking at Crystal with concern on his face.

"What...what are you talking about?" Crystal asked, choking on her own words due to her obvious confusion.

"I'll help you, I'll protect you, you let me live, yet my whole life I've been alone, the only people who talked to me were the ones who were paid to do so, I've never had a friend, so please, let me come with you", Abraham said, his gaze never leaving Crystal's own eyes.

Crystal stands their for a while, considering Abraham's request. I guess I could use his help, I mean his MAC-10 could come in handy, and at least with him with me that means that theirs at least one less enemy out there. But I'll have to be prepared to take care of him when the time comes, I can't back down, cause if I do it means i'm dead and I don't wanna die! Crystal lets go of her grip on her nail bat, which is still concealed inside of her supply bag and stares back at Abraham, the seriousness returning to her eyes.

"Fine, you can come with me, but if you fuck me over or get in my way I swear to god I will make your life a living hell, and I'll make you wish you died here", Crystal said, trying to intimidate Abraham so he won't try anything.

"Thank you so much, and don't worry, I won't try anything", Abraham said, clearly not being indimated by Crystal's attitude.

And so begins the journey of Crystal and Abraham, both friendless loners, one who wants a friend and one who doesn't, who may just get more than what they bargained for from their alliance. Their journey will be full of surprises, and may just influence the outcome at the end.

Boy 10 Will Ziebell is slowly creeping through the island's forest area while holding his supplied weapon, an M4 Assault Rifle, quite cumbersomely in his hands. Will is a very good looking guy and is very kind and very friendly. He is one of the most popular guys in school. He could have any girl that he wants but he still stays with his girlfriend, Girl 3 Fortuna Goodin, and protects her with his life. While it may not currently seem like it, but behind Will's calm and handsome face he is scared, literally frightened to the core. The cause of Will's fear is the fact that somewhere on this island is Fortuna, most likely all alone, scared to death and in grave danger. Fortuna is the love of Will's life and he has vowed to protect her to the very end.

She's all alone out there, in danger, she could be hurt, or worse......No, don't think like that, she's fine, I just need to find her, to save her...

Will has medium length Black hair, he is 6ft and has the body of an athlete, but the looks of a Hollywood hearthrob. He is very caring and will always cater to those who need a helping hand. Suddenly, to the left of Will, something moves, causing some nearby bushes to rustle, startling Will and causing him to raise and ready his M4 in anticipation.

All of a sudden a figure darts out from behind one of the nearby bushes and starts to run away from Will. Will, unsure of what to do, decides to chase after the figure, since it could be someone in need of help.

"Hey! Wait!" Will yelled, as he chases after the figure. "I don't want to hurt you, please, I'm here to help".

Suddenly the figure comes to an abrupt halt and turns around. Will still can't make out who it is due to the darkness, but he is sure it is a female.

"Will, is that you", A familar voice said.

Will can't believe his luck...

1 Year Ago

Will is walking through the quiet streets of Hervey Bay, while the sun begins to go down and the moon begins to rise, creating a beautiful sunset. But Will is to busy to take notice of the beauty of his surroundings. He is heading to the house of his best friend, Zoe Ashfield. He got a call from her a couple of hours ago asking if he wanted to spend the night and Will accepted the offer. Will and Zoe have been best friends since kindergarten, when they used to live right next door to each other. Will has always considred Zoe somewhat of a sister to him, since he is an only child.

After nearly half an hour of walking Will finally arives at Zoe's house and knocks on her front door. Mrs. Ashfield answers the door and greets Will with a big, kind smile.

"Will! It's so good to see you!" Mrs. Ashfield said as she gives Will a big hug. "Please come in and make yourself at home".

Will walks into the Ashfield residence and smiles back at Mrs. Ashfield, who walks over to the staircase.

"Zoe, Will is here!" Mrs. Ashfield yells up the stairs.

"Ok, send him up", Zoe yells back, with a hint of nervousness in her voice.

"You heard the little lady", Mrs. Ashfield said, smiling back at Will again.

Will quickly moves up the staircase, and is bizarrely greeted with a make-up wearing Zoe.

"Will!" Zoe yells as she jumps at Will and wraps her arms around him.

"Zoe, um are you okay? Are you wearing make-up?" Will said, he is very confused about Zoe's behaviour, since she has never worn make-up before.

"Will, I have something very important that I need to tell you...", Zoe said, after finally letting go of Will.

All of a sudden Fortuna Goodin enters the hallway that Will and Zoe are residing in, having just been to the bathroom. Will, realising that she is a complete stranger to him, just stands there, lovestruck. Zoe notices Will's change of gaze and looks at Fortuna.

"Oh, that's Fortuna, she's new here", Zoe said, returning her gaze to Will, who is still staring at Fortuna.

"Pl....pleasure.....to meet you", Will said, stuttering on his own words as he extends his hand towards Fortuna.

At that exact moment the moon shines over Will and the figure, revealing it to be Girl 10 Zoe Ashfield. Zoe's face changes from a look of terror to a look of happiness.

"Will, oh my god", Zoe yells as she sprints over to Will and wraps him up in a big hug. She looks up at him with teary eyes."I've been looking for you this whole time, I was so scared that something might have happened to you, but your finally here..."

Zoe still holds Will in a tight hug, never wanting to let go. Zoe is a very friendly and very pretty girl, but beware, if you get on her bad side, she's not afraid to kick some ass. She won't back down and will stand up for what she believes in. Zoe is 5'11"ft, has long brown hair, is athletic and is very outgoing. For some reason unknown to Will, for the past year Zoe has been acting more 'womanly' than usual, and has not been her normal tomboyish self.

"Zoe, I'm glad to see you to, but we have to keep moving, I....I have to find Fortuna, and hopefully we can figure out a way to get off this goddamn island", Will said, trying to pry Zoe off him. "But we have to be careful, I'm sure you saw Prue's body as well...."

"Yeah, I did", Zoe replied as she finally lets go of Will. "Somebody out there's playing the game..."
