I didn't feel like talking match as the horse and carriage rode to the house though once the house came into side I had a big long look at it and wow even someone like me had to admit that the building looked very impressive. The house was easily 6 floors tall along with a great big fence and another house that looked like it only had one floor but it still looked impressive
"Wow, I knew the Allen's had a big house but this is unreal"
"I know Ren, how rich must you be to live in a house like this" Rei said while looking at the Horses that were in the fields
"Stop looking at those horses dear and focus on the building" Sandra said.
I noticed there was some jealously in her voice.
"I am so glad we are hear" said Galahad clearly admiring the house's beauty
"Me to" Ren said as she looked at the farmyard
The Butler lowered all of us down and then Galahad talked to him
"Care to join us?" Galahad said
"It would be my pleasure" Harold said clearly happy that he was allowed to attend a part such as this.
As we walked to the building I noticed there was someone running towards us
"REN!"
I knew who it was. Both Ren and Jessica shook hands
"How are you doing Jessica", it seemed like Ren was curious about Jessica's appearance and the fact she is extremely attractive
"I am doing fine but I wish my father wasn't such a pig, I am concerned he might grow fat from the amount of food he is eating. Anyway do you want to go out and have a look at the horses?"
"That is not going to happen" Sandra said very firmly
Ren sighed "What do you mean by that?"
"The Allen family have given us strict instructions not to touch any of the horses or there could be some potential trouble" Sandra boomed
"Fine, fine" Ren looked very disappointed and the news that there wouldn't be any horse touching
Jessica decided to cheer Ren up
"How about we enjoy the party" Jessica said with a smile on his face..."
Ren sighed and said "sure"
The two of them headed off into the house
I noticed than Jean had decided to meet my father
"Comrade, how are you?"
Galahad looked very happy to see Jean
"I am doing great though I heard you were planning to help the army"
Jean nodded his head
"The army had the biggest impact in my life and no matter if I get away from it…it always follows me around so I decided why not help the army I mean someone like me could be a perfect teacher"
"I agree" Galahad shouted as he tried to have a conversation with the party in the background
"I hope you help me with the whole army business" Jean said clearly looking hopeful
"I would love to but now I have a wife and family so I can't help the army anyone still if they are looking for advice I certainly can provide it"
Jean looked disappointed and then nodded after looking at Sandra
My father than laughed and said "Do you want to have a drink?"
Jean looked a bit more happier than he had been and said "Sure why not, beer while not being the best drink is still a good drink"
The two of them headed off to the party. I decided to follow them until
"HEY MAN!"
I knew who it was the instant he talked
"So I am guessing you are here to pick up the ladies?" I asked him rhetorically
"Of course" James said clearly proud of the fact
"Have you met anyone you have found an interest in" I asked
"Sure" suddenly James went over and told me something
"Senior Davul is fine, I heard he is a bullfighter and was requested by the Allen family to come to this party and I can see why, the girls are following him around the place like he is some god. I wish I could have a piece of that action..."
James looked disappointed
"I am sure he wouldn't mind if you asked him" I told James trying not to laugh
As we talked I noticed that Ren was talking to the man himself
"Hello lady" Senior Davul bowed to my sister. It was clear he was from a rich family considering he had manners and respect
"Why hello there Senior, I heard that your bullfighting has become famous even here in the UK"
"That is the case, I was started off as a rookie but I rose to the top and now I am preforming at a global stage and impressing even the queen, I am sure lucky" Senior Davul had a big smile across his face. To be honest it was rather amusing
"You making fun of the bullfighter?"
I noticed that someone was coming from the right
"Always with the cold comments Lissa, why can't you be more outgoing?"
"Because that would mean I would have to deal more with people like you James" James suddenly got scared from the cold look that Lissa was giving him
"Come on, he's not that bad…just a little stupid" I shrugged my shoulders and based on her reaction I did not convince her"
"Ignorance is a sin of itself, anyway I heard that the Allen Family's Main Member is not going to be attending this party"
I knew that was extremely strange but then I saw someone in a maid costume appear
"Mr Allen will not be attending as he has other business relating to the Novolisc Family"
"So who are you supposed to be, Lissa sniped back at the maid's comment"
"Excuse my manners, my name is Seras Reis and I am a maid working for the Novolisc family and Mr Albert…"
"Hey why are you talking to my maid?"
Suddenly a snot nosed little kid walked up to us. By his clothes I could tell he was very rich
"You seem like a pair of fools especially the one in the stupid purple outfit"
"Hey I like my outfit" – James seemed cheesed off by his comment
"Sorry for his manners, his name is Albert Novolisc and he is the..."
"Prince of Novolsic" I noticed there was some smugness in Albert's voice. Most likely he thought he was much better than us
"Well a snot nosed brat is still a snot nosed brat" Lissa commented at Albert
"Please don't be disrespectful to my master" Seras started to look very worried as Lissa and Albert were clearly not getting along.
"Sigh, how about we just leave these three love birds alone and go search for something fun to do" I said clearly bored about the conversation
"Let's go to the roof" James suggested while moving around a glass of wine
The both of us headed towards the balcony and then we saw a girl who manic hair who was spinning a ball around
"My, what do we have hear…these guys look like a couple of jokers to me" the mysterious girl snickered as she kept playing with the ball"
"I am not a joker!" James sounded very offended by the comment that was made by this person"
"Then let me ask you this question, what's your name?" I asked with a surprising amount of sincerity.
"Fine but I will only tell you this once, the name's Racheal Wilson, got it memorised…"
"I think I have memorised it just fine also what's that ball you are playing with?"
"It's a bomb…" Racheal said those words as seriously as she could
Both I and James looked shocked and we said together "REALLY!"
Racheal then started to laugh "of course not silly that would have been stupid. I can't believe you just fell for that…maybe this party will be fun after all."
The three of us started to chat and then headed down the stairs until James being the idoit he is bumped into someone
"I'M SORRY!" The girl was being rather loud
"It's okay, blame everyone on James..."
Racheal noticed something "What is that a plotted plant"
The girl blushed and said "Yes…this is a plant.."
Racheal shrugged "You really should bring plants to parties I mean it could be dangerous
The girl started to look nervous "I know but I really want to"
James then patted the girl on the head and said "What's your name?"
The girl looking interested said "My name is Lucy Wayne"
James smiled and said "Okay then, how about I help you out"
Lucy smiled and said "You would do that for me"
James then said "Of course, Racheal do you want to help me out?"
"Why not, I always like a good challenge" Racheal said with the outmost confidence"
"Hey Rei do you want to help us?"
"Nah, I need to go to the toilet" I said hiding my disinterest in helping the girl out
"See you then Rei" The three of them headed out and I walked to the toilet. Then I overheard something…a conversation between my father and someone else
"This party has been expertly planned you know, everything seems to fit perfectly in place. You have really outdone yourself Integra"
The women known as Integra smiled "You know that I always create the best parties for everyone while you wife is just making silly storybook stories"
My father puffed out his chest and said "Well my wife is kind to me so that's all that matters to me"
Integra smiled and said "We shall see..."
The two started to talk some more but I decided to leave them be and instead go and talk to the others. I decided to do some more partying with the other guests but as a started to drink and drink I started to feel a bit dizzy and I noticed the others were feeling a bit dizzy too. I fell on the floor and collapsed.
"Huh, what is going on?" that was the first thing I heard when I woke up. I slowly opened my eyes and noticed a couple of things that were very strange indeed the first thing was that the tables and the floors were completely spotless with no grim or dirt on them besides the dirt left by me. The second thing that was strange is that in the room there were only 14 other people and the rest was gone missing. I felt that was very strange since there was at least 100…where could the others have gone. I was kind of curious but at the same time I was just waking up so I didn't have my bearings. I did noticed that a couple of people were already awake including...
"Brother!" Ren shouted at loud as she could
"Can you shut up, you are most likely going to give everyone else a headache"
"Sorry…" Ren looked annoyed but she bowed her head in apology.
"Anyway we need to wake everyone else up including mother and father. It looks like Bullfighter and Plant Girl is awake so ask them for help"
"Fine then but you really should be doing this..." Ren went over and talked to the bullfighter and plant girl and the three waked everyone up one at a time
"What happened? One minute I was partying with girls and then..." James looked fairly annoyed at the situation
"Me falling unconscious, this is simply unacceptable" Galahad boomed as loudly as he could
"Well you always fell unconscious during parties so this is not too surprising" Jean was also getting up.
Eventually everyone get up and suddenly Integra asked a simple question
"What's happened?"
No one could give her an answer until
"I can explain the situation you guys are in"
Suddenly two butlers appeared in front of the 15 guests. One was wearing an all-white suit including a White Mask and the other was wearing all black suit with a black mask.
"My name is Mo" said the White Butler
"And my name is No" said the Black Butler
Sandra being very annoyed said "Who are you meant to me"
Mo and No said at the same time "We are the ones who run this game"
Racheal started to look very happy "I love games…what kind of games are we playing"
Albert looked cross "Someone like me has no time for games. Can we just leave?"
Both Mo and No smiled at the same "You can't leave"
Albert started to get angrier "Why not"
Mo and No said at the same time "You will miss out on all of the fun"
I started to get curious "What do you mean by fun?"
Mo and No said at the time "Currently you are inside the Allen Residence though there is a key difference before the party. You are no longer able to move outside of the resident area. You are able to move to the farmland and the Archery range but that is it. The rest is barred by very high fences and there is no way you can escape as our dogs are making sure that no one gets out of the area"
Everyone started to look concerned
"But my plants…I want to go hope" Lucy was clearly concerned but then Mo and No responded at the same time
"Why are you feeling so down Lucy, there is a way you can escape?"
Galahad pumped up and said "What is this means of escape"
Mo and No smiles kept becoming creeper and creeper
Mo said first "The method of escape is one of the funniest past times of all"
No then said "It gives me a rush of excitement every time I see it"
Finally the two said at the same time…. "MURDER….isn't it so much fun!"
Everyone either looked shocked or they spluttered
"Um, senior we can't possibly murder…that is out of the question. I disprove of this whole situation"
Mo smiled and said "Well that's the only way to escape this building. I might as well lay out the ground roles. Out of their pockets appeared 15 sheets of paper and each paper was handed to each person. Everyone was on edge especially Sandra who looked like she was about to faint.
Mono then started to read out the rules
"Rule One: Students are to stay in the house area until the game is concluded. Supplies have been provided for the stay at the house
Rule Two: Keep the house clean. Dropping things on the floor is not allowed
Rule Three: Sleep is only allowed in the certain rooms.
Rule Four: Meals are delivered at 7:00 AM, 12:00 PM, and 6:00 PM. Only at those times, one person may enter the Kitchen to collect the food, and they must bring out every prepared plate.
Rule Five: Locked doors are not to be broken down or have their locks picked.
Rule Six: Damaging your butlers Mo and No is not allowed.
Rule Seven: In order to complete the Game of Mutual Killing, a Student must kill another and keep the crime from being discovered. Several hours after the murder, a Class Trial will be held.
Rule Eight: Rules may be added at any time by the Guide."
Everyone looked surprised at the murders even the trained butler who was used to deadly situations was gasping for air
"This is absurd, no one is going to follow these rules..." Sandra shouted clearly worried about the situation
"Senior, I agree these rules are so strict that not even someone like me won't be able to follow them" Senior Davul was getting louder and louder
"None of this is acceptable I will find the one who did this and…." Everyone was getting louder and louder…
ENOUGH! The two Monobulters shouted shutting everyone up
Mo than jumped up and down and said "If you do not follow these rules…"
"You will all die" No's voice was cold like ice...
Both then said "If that's all we must be going. At the moment you guys are only restricted to the first floor but as this Killing game continues you will have access to multiple floors. I hope you all have a wondrous game of despair. We will be looking forward to seeing what happens"
The Two Mono Butlers left in a flash of smoke and everyone just stood there in silent not wanting to speak but of course it had to be Galahad that spoke first
"I am sure no one is going to kill each other…that is absurd I mean…." It was clear he was sweating
"Yeah man, I would not be able to kill someone even I could" James tried to miserably back up Galahad
"Then you two are most likely to die" Suddenly Lissa decided to speak
"Yes I agree, we have two options 1. The first is to adapt to the situation and live our whole lives here and 2. Murdering each other in order to get free…" Integra was waving her fans around
"But ummm….i don't want either option…" said Lucy clearly worried
I started to think about it…as much I hate to admit Integra was right, we can't trust each other as we do not know what the other is currently thinking. Right now someone could be planning to murder and we would not know about it. We can't trust each other in this Killing House Party Game. I need to protect my family at all costs and escape this game I must keep despair at bay and hold onto hope…
