Am I thinking too much?

Melistown, the small town located in the south west of the continent. It's only an ordinary town with an ordinary lifestyle in it. Other than that, there's a small amount of hunter and adventure resided here. 

"Melistown? I thought this school was supposed to be in a big city or something?"

 "Well that's not really a problem or something. Only the chosen student has come to study in this place. So the popularity is not a something this school is achieving. For now." 

"Well there's probably a reason why they're chosen right?" Ryuma looked at Line with an eyes of curiosity. 

"Well you'll know the reason sooner or later anyway." As they walked quite a distance in a small town, both Line an Valena stopped walking. 

"We're here~" Ryuma looked around. There seems to be the shop and food stall around but there's no place that can be called a school. Other than that, there's only a wild forest on his right. 

"Where? I can only see people buying stuff here." 

"What do you mean? The school is on this way." Line pointing at the wild forest. Ryuma were confused. 

"These forest huh? Yep yep. Totally a normal place where a student can studies~ Other than this is totally not a convenient places to tie me up, chop and feed me to some noble cannibal isn't it?!" Said Ryuma with his hand on the chopping stance. 

"Huh? You've watched that movie? That's a really great movie- I mean, no! We're not gonna feed students to cannibals!" 

"Huh~ Is it true~ How do I trust you~ That reminds me, your getup is almost the same as that noble from the movie." 

"Huh? Are you questioning my getup?! This is a branded clothes i'll have you know!" The clothes with the colour white,red and black with a skirt. She also wearing a long socks with a strip red, black strip colour and also a black high heels shoes. Making her almost the same as goth lolita. 

"Uh, I don't know if I wanna go further ahead. I can feel something bad's gonna happen." Said Ryuma with his cautious eyes. 

"No, this school is safe! You're overthinking too much!" Line then grab Ryuma and trying to drag him but he was grabbing onto the tree. 

("Like a mother trying to bring her child to the school on the first day...") Valena can only watching these two idiots screaming at each other in front of the crowd. 

Not long after, they've finally step the foot inside the forest. Ryuma cautiously walked only a few step behind Line. Sooner or later, among the dense leaves among the trees, a building can be seen in the center of the forest. 

("These school... It looks new. I thought the school was gonna be like in these abandoned building from those horror movies.") 

"Okay then, gentleman come first~" 

"Huh?" 

"Don't "huh" me. I told you this is only a normal scho-." 

"BOOOOOOOM!!!" 

A loud explosion is coming from inside the building. They've only stared at the school building and then on each other. 

"Yep, totally normal." 

"Don't mind it that much. It must be that 'guy' who's messing up with his own-" 

"AAAAARRRRRGGGHH!!!" 

Somebody's scream can be heard from inside the building. As they've only stared at the school building, Ryuma then take a step back. He slowly getting away from those two until he just step on the twig. Line and Valena realized that Ryuma is about to run off with his baggage. 

"No you don't kid!"

 Line casted Binding Love on Ryuma. He instantly losing a feeling of his body.

"I KNEW IT! YOU BOTH ARE KIDNAPPING PEOPLE WITH TENDER MEAT JUST SO YOU COULD SELL MY MEAT TO SOME FRIENDLY CANNIBAL!!!" (Friendly reminder: This guy's watching too much movies.) 

"*Sigh* Valena just drag this guy in." 

"Okay, Nurse Line." 

"NO! LET ME GO! I DON'T WANNA BE CHOPPED ALIVE BY A SOME GUY WEARING A PIG MASK!!!" 

Ryuma's voiced echoes through a forest. As they gotten in a dark entrance, what is awaits him on the other side is just a normal straircases on the center that leads to the second floor. On left and right is only a hallways that connects a multiple room with it. Just like in your ordinary school. 

(Normal... it's normal. No bloods and molds can be found anywhere... But wait, This is only an entrance! They've must been cleaned it already.) 

"Let's go meet her already." Valena drags Ryuma until they've reached the room. 

"This is the teacher's office." 

"Huh? There's only a few table here. About four or five of them..." 

Valena then put Ryuma on the chair. Meanwhile, Line bring a tape and tie him up with the whole chair. 

"Okay, with this he won't run away. Now then, we'll go first." 

"Go? go where? Don't leave me alone!" 

"Grow up already little kid!" Line slams down the door. Leaving Ryuma alone in the office. 

In this silent room, all he can do is look around. He glanced over a picture of a beautiful woman on the table. 

"That pretty woman... she's probably one of the teacher here." 

"Oh! Am I that pretty?" Ryuma's heart just skipped a beat because of the sudden voice coming from behind him. The voice appears to be coming from the same girl from the picture. 

"AHH! You surprise me..." 

"Fufufu~ Can't help but tease a young man a bit nowadays." 

From Ryuma's perspective unlike Line who's has an aura of a cocky bastard, but this woman has a mysterious aura surrouding her. Most of the man must get flattered by her beauty but in Ryuma's case, he can't help but feel cautious towards her. 

"Where did you even come from! I didn't even hear a door open." 

"Oh I just coming from that room connected to the office. A student just cause a problem earlier so I just gave him some lecture and 'discipline' him a bit~. Oh more importantly, you're the new student that Line just bring in right? Hang on let me take a registration form first. Wait a minute okay~" 

The pretty teacher left the room and Ryuma once again all alone. Ryuma then take an attempt to broke free from the tape by burning it. While he's burning the tape, he realized the room where the teacher just came from. The door was left open and Ryuma can hear the rustling sound coming from it. 

"Oh, that teacher did told me there's a student she just lectured. So this is indeed a school... Guess I was thinking too much then." 

Ryuma then raised his voice, trying to reach out to the person inside the room. 

"Oiii! Can you hear me? Whoever's inside that room, can you help me get these tapes off? It's been bugging me!" 

Nobody is answering. Ryuma just stares at the room. He then noticed there's something flowing from inside the room. It catches his intention. 

Water? Ink? Ryuma was curious as he look closer and closer. The flow became longer. It appears to be some liquid with a red colour. 

"Wait, that's not what I think this is right?" Ryuma's body was trembling from head to toe. Ryuma's was too focused on the liquid and then... 

"BAAAM!!!" A hand just came out from where the liquid just came from. The hand's owner slowly showing himself. It was a man wearing an 'unusual' goggles. Ryuma can see the man's trying to say something. 

"R.U.N."

Is this starting to become a horror guys?
