The Invasion Begins

The alarm is blaring in the background.

"Huh, morning has come so quickly."

Taehyung wakes up from his slumber and suddenly his toe collides with the corner of the wall.

"Ouch! That hurt! What a way to start the day!" he exclaims, grimacing at the redness on his face caused by the sudden collision.

His mother calls him to get ready and have breakfast.

"Taehyung, it's time to get ready! Come downstairs for breakfast," his mother calls out.

Taehyung comes downstairs and greets his parents with a warm smile.

"Good morning, Mom and Dad! I hope you both had a restful night."

"Good morning, Oppa!" his little sister said.

"Good morning, dear! We have a delicious breakfast waiting for you. Sit down and join us." his mother said.

After having breakfast, Taehyung sets off for school.

"Have a wonderful day, my dear. Study hard and make the most of your classes" said his mother.

As the school bell chimes, signaling the start of the day, Taehyung and his classmates respectfully greet their teacher. Time passes gradually, and before they know it, the lunch break arrives.

Taehyung said, "Yes! It's time for lunch. I'm starving!"

Then he heads towards the school cafeteria, but his sunbae's (senior's) call him over to collect their homework assignments.

"Taehyung, did you complete our homework like we told you to?" one of his classmates asked, a hint of aggression in their tone, trying to assert their power over him.

Taehyung hesitates and stammers, "Y-yes..."

"You know exactly what will happen if you dare to neglect our work," one of his classmates sneered, their words dripping with a menacing undertone.

Taehyung, feeling a surge of fear, mustered a shaky response, "Y-yes, I know..."

Taehyung becomes the target of their bullying, as they make him do their tasks because they see him as a weakling. He reluctantly hands over their assignments, and they mockingly laugh before walking away. He takes a deep breath, exhales heavily, and begins to eat his lunch.

Deep down, Taehyung's thoughts echoed with frustration and resentment. Why do they always have to pick on me? It's not fair. But for now, I have no choice. I'll do what they ask, but someday, I'll prove my worth and break free from their control.

Just then, someone yelled, "Hey guys, look outside! There's a strange, enormous sphere floating in the sky!"

Taehyung's curiosity piqued, and he quickly joined the crowd as they rushed to see the mysterious sight.

As everyone's attention remained captivated by the colossal sphere hovering in the sky, a sense of intrigue filled the air. Suddenly, a peculiar object emerged from the sphere and descended towards the school playground adjacent to the cafeteria. To everyone's surprise, it revealed itself to be a goblin-like creature, its unique appearance piquing the curiosity of the onlookers. Soon after, more goblins emerged from the mysterious sphere, creating an atmosphere of wonder and anticipation among the students.

As security guards and physical education teachers arrived at the scene, their voices filled with authority and concern.

"What are you guys doing here? This is a school, not a cosplay stage!" they exclaimed, trying to bring order to the chaotic situation.

However, before they could fully comprehend the danger that lurked before them, the goblins launched a sudden and brutal assault, overpowering the unsuspecting guards and teachers with ruthless efficiency. The horrifying sight sent waves of terror through the students, their screams echoing through the corridors as they scattered in every direction, desperately seeking an escape from the nightmarish scene unfolding before their eyes.

Taehyung's mind reeled in disbelief and fear.

"What... what is happening?" he stammered, his voice trembling. "This can't be real, right?"

His classmates, equally terrified, exchanged fearful glances, but no one had the answers. Together, they fled the school, their frantic footsteps echoing with the haunting realization that their lives would never be the same.
