Nurse:
My eyes shoot open, and I stare at a white ceiling and hear the sound of a spinning fan, I gingerly turn my head to the right as a sharp pain engulfs the right side of my neck,
My body is stiff as a board, I look around the room only moving my eyes, I'm in a completely white room with a clear window in front of me,
Looks like I'm in a nurse's room, was the poison of that beast, that strong? I observe the room more and see four blue chairs next to a door on my left, and a flat-screen TV on my right, I lay there motionless on my bed until I hear footsteps, I stare at the window in front of me and see Sally walk past the window,
Rebecca? Why would she come and see me, I turn my head over to the door and watch the doorknob as Rebecca walks into the room, She stares at me before she grins,
" About time you woke up, You were asleep for two days, and don't worry about signing up for the exam, I already listed your name to be with our group "
The exam is going to be in three days, It Looks like I'm going to have to deal with Rebecca's blackmail until this exam is over,
" Thank you for signing me up, but why did you come and see me? "
Rebecca wouldn't come here to tell me that she signed me up, she must have some other ulterior motive for coming here,
" What? Can I not come and see you, David "
She says to me rolling her eyes, I glare at her until she scoffs and speaks to me again,
" Fine, you got me, you see, you're quite popular in this school right now, The news reported that you were attacked in the forest with The Dean and Mr Patrick, "
To think I would ever be popular, I think to myself before Rebecca continues to speak,
" Everyone was wondering why a beast would be in that park, but not me, the real question I have is why were you with the Dean? "
She's suspicious of me because I was with the Dean, seeing how she hasn't mentioned Null, I doubt the Dean told the students the real reason we're in the forest, I need to make a half-truth lie to get her off my back,
" The Dean and I were in the forest trying to figure out what was going wrong with my ability, and the beast happened to show up. "
She looked at me confused until she spoke again,
" What do you mean happened to show up, Someone summoned that beast to attack you, It was reported all over the news about someone attacking a student, and school officials "
Someone summon that beast? It couldn't be Null because he can erase abilities so unless there was another person there I didn't see, I think the government just made up a cover-up story for the situation
" I didn't see someone summon that beast, It just randomly showed up and attacked us, I think the government is just making something up. "
I say to Rebecca, she looks at me before grinning, She walks over to the blue chairs in the room and picks one up, she sits it next to the bed, and sits down staring at me,
" Thank you for being honest with me, but do you think you can participate in the exam with the wounds on your body, Sally's powers can only heal physical wounds, not status wounds such as poison or paralysis "
" Don't worry, I'm definitely going to experience the exam with you and Sally, I want to make some good memories for once. "
I say to her with a grin on my face, she looks at me with a shocked look on her face,
" For the short time I have known you, I have never heard you talk with that much passion before, you usually talk bland or boring but you actually talked like a human being for once. "
I stare at her before I scoff at her comments,
" I guess, I'm just in a good mood, but is it a bad thing I'm talking with passion? "
" No, it's a good change. "
She says to me, Rebecca and I talk for what feels like hours, she explained to me, how yesterday during her class she looked out of the window and saw me being dragged across the hallway by Mr Patrick,
Apparently, It gave her a good laugh before the boring class started, I was about to keep joking around until I remembered something important, noticing the change in my facial expression Rebecca also stopped talking,
" Rebecca, If you meet a woman with pink hair named Kioro, She works for the government and is their personal lie detector, so if you get in contact with her run away for both of our sakes. "
" Wow you're definitely a criminal David, how in the world would you even know something like that? "
Said Rebecca rolling her eyes, She was about to say something else when the TV in the room suddenly turned on catching our attention,
The Dean's face appears she's wearing a black suit, Looks like she's going to make some type of announcement,
" I'm sorry for the rude interruption, but if you're seeing this message you're currently on school property and are most likely a student or school faculty, so I must ask all of the students seeing this message to report to their teachers classroom, we're going to explain what the upcoming exam will be, "
The TV abruptly turns black after the short announcement, Well I'm not in any condition to move, I look over toward Rebecca and watch her turn around and start heading towards the door of my room,
She looks back at me before speaking,
" After they explain the exam to me, I'll come back and explain it to you, "
She says turning the doorknob and leaving the room, I watch as the door closes before it latches close, Looks like Rebecca is taking this exam seriously, her entire demeanor changed when she heard that announcement,
I watch as she walks past the window directly in front of me waving her hand at me, I scoff to myself before I painfully reach over to my side and grab onto the bed frame before sliding myself up, getting into a sitting position,
I look to my left and see a TV remote on a black drawer next to my bed, I gingerly reach down and grab the remote,
I turn on the TV and start watching a childish cartoon, I wonder how long Rebecca is going to take until Rebecca comes back and explains the exam to me...
On the other side of the school, Inside a classroom, Rebecca could be seen sitting at a long brown table, There were five rows of tables each going up a step, at the very front of the class,
Rebecca's teacher could be seen, It was a short man standing at 5'6, He was wearing a black suit with brown dress shoes, His eyes were black matching his short black hair,
He gripped a podium in front of him as he stared at the class, Before starting a long speech,
" Everyone in this class should have known that the exam is starting in three days, and signed their group up yesterday, If you failed to due that, you'll be forced to watch the exam and receive a failing grade, "
The teacher took a deep breath before he continued with his speech,
" The exam will have four phases, Each phase will be worth 20 points, The maximum grade you can get in the exam is 80, the 20 other points must be achieved by impressing some governing officials,
The first phase will be held in a tomb underground, one thousand students will be there, the main goal of the exam is to get three different types of pages, Each page will have a different symbol,
There will be 12 instructors inside the tomb, if you defeat one of them, you get three pages, "
The man stopped talking and started to look around the room until suddenly a blue-haired girl raised her hand, She was sitting in the first row,
" If there are only 12 instructors, doesn't that mean only 12 people out of the thousand would pass? "
The teacher grinned at the girl's question before he shooked his head and spoke,
" The instructors are not the only ones who will have papers, chosen by random, some of the students will start with a single paper, and to answer your other question, the maximum amount of students that will pass the first phase is 200, "
Rebecca stared at her as hundreds of thoughts ran through her head...
If a thousand students are participating in this exam and there are only 12 instructors to beat, that must mean 56 percent of the students will start with a piece of paper,
Looks like Mr. Smith is finished with his speech, He is about to dismiss us, I need to hurry up and tell David about the exam, even though I don't fully trust him, I'm sure he will make a solid plan...
