Trying To Take My Mask Off

My dream came true but I'm not happy. I became a legend in the entertainment world, and everybody knows me. But I sacrificed too much to stand here. I don't even know myself anymore. If you ask me what my biggest regrets are. It is that I don't know myself anymore, that I don't feel what I used to feel, that I don't know what makes me happy, that I'm now almost like a robot. It would be nice if I could change myself. If I could just turn back the time or go to another world, it doesn't matter what, if I could do it I would. And then I would change myself and search for what I want and become a person again. The girl smiled and said: "I'll give you a change." [Will you take this change and change yourself or will you stay the same? I really hope you'll change and be happy this time.] ---------------------------------------------- A boy who achieved his dream but felt alone met a girl who gave him a second chance.

-----------

"8h24", Iyan said while look at his watch. One minute until school officially starts and not everyone was sitting obediently in the class.

The students who already arrived minutes ago as to not make their demon-teacher mad were sweating buckets. The warning of what will happen to the late comers still was fresh in their head. Even when they didn't know what the punishment will be, they already feared it. Teacher even said that he would punish the late comers, but some of them had a feeling that Iyan would punish the whole class with a reason as: "You are one class. You need to be responsible for your class."

They only thing they could do was cross their fingers and hoping that the late student, Narcys, decided to come on time today and not on the second period as he always does.

*SWOOSH*

As if he heard their prayers, Narcys came in the class before the bell rung. Some students were ready to jump on him and cry out tears of happiness. Knowing that they will live a day longer, but even when they wanted to they couldn't. Is it their fault they found Narcys so scary? They weren't Lin who has too much courage.

*RING* *RING*

"You're right on time", teacher Iyan said to the boy who was walking to his desk: "I thought you won't show up."

Iyan guessed right. Narcys was planning not to go. Things like class bonding didn't matter to him but thinking about Iyan made him go to school. He even came earlier than normal. What can you do, there will be some people who you'll never be able to beat?

"I'll now explain the treasure hunt

The game:

In group of four or five (that Iyan will decide) you'll need to search for an unique object (each group has another object, so you can't steal other's).

The following rules:

- Act like a normal student => There will be "students and teachers" (friends or hired by Iyan, not real) who will act like a monitor and watch their steps. If they behave unlike a "normal" student they will get a penalty (e.g., you walk inside a classroom where a class is going => not normal). Penalty will be decided by Iyan.

- School => You can go everywhere in school (excluding the dean's office), but you can't break anything if you do you'll get a penalty. Penalty will be decided by Iyan

- There will be clues hidden in school can be any form, you'll know which one is yours because your team has a symbol, symbol will be displayed on the clue => you'll get points for each clue you find (the clue is a quest where you need to do something for someone if you accomplish it they will give you a clue otherwise not)

- The hints of the other groups shall not be thrown away or taken by another group, can be placed somewhere else => if founded out that your group violated this you'll receive a penalty. Penalty will be decided by Iyan.

- If you think you found your object return to the class => right object the game will end, an announcement will be made so everyone will know the game ended

- The game ends when the school day ends => 16:00

- When the bell rings the game is officially over (stop playing the game, don't search further) => everyone gathers back in the class

About penalties:

The penalty can vary from penalty points (points you got from the hints) to a task YOU need to conduct. Will be decided by Iyan.

Who wins:

The group who first found their object before the school ends. When no one found it, the group with the most points when the school ends win.

"Does everyone understand?", Iyan asked but he wasn't planning to repeat it, so if someone didn't understand it, they'll need to ask their teammates.

"Now I'll split you in groups and no it can't be changed.", he said and the arm who was on the way above slowly went down.

"The following groups are the symbol red heart is for the group Erebus, Lenora, …, …. The symbol blue cloud is for the group Ryuu, …, …, …, …. The symbol green leaf is for the group Kia, …, …, …. The symbol purple flower is for the group Lucius, Lilyann, Narcys, Lin and Arthur. As last the symbol pink star is fo- ", before he could finish his sentence he was interrupted by Lin.

"Teacher! Me and Narcys is a no, no", Lin said while shaking her index finger: "That's just asking for a fight."

"Then don't fight.", he answered simply.

"It's not like I'm fighting with him because I want. It's just…"

"Just what?"

"He's Narcys."

Everyone got speechless with her reasoning why she fights with him, but Lin looked like what she said totally did make sense and of course, that was something she only thought.

"Then bear with it because I won't change the teams", Iyan already felt tired by thinking what kind of bull sh*t she would say if he didn't shup her up.

"I can change you in another group, but you won't be in Lucius' group anymore."

"Why not change Narcys to another group?", Lin asked slowly.

"I won't."

"I- "

"I won't change it, do you understand? So, choose quickly.", Iyan told her without waiting for her to finish her previous sentence.

"…I'll stay in the group with Narcys", Lin answered in a quiet voice.

"Then sit down", without noticing Lin was already standing, so like he asked she sat down once again.

When he finally thought everything was over, he was hit in the face with a sentence that smelled like trouble.

"I want to change groups", Narcys said lazily.

"Haha…In your dreams.", Iyan told him with a smile on his face, but fatigue could be read from his face.

"Why- "

"Don't why me."

"But- "

"Just so you all know because it seems like not everyone seems to understand it, but today is a class bonding day, so I except you all to bond and know each other better than before. That's why I hope you all become good friends when the day ends."

When he was talking he kept looking at the two new troublemakers. Hoping that they would shut up. Maybe it's because his smile, but they didn't dare to say anything about changing groups again. Seeing them not say anything made the smile on his face bigger than it did a second ago.

"I definitely hope that each group becomes closer especially the group purple flowers."

[I like this so much.] Iyan thought.

[He's enjoying this too much.] Lin and Narcys thought bitterly.

"That's right, the final group will be the pink star. The members are …, …, … and …."

With that the treasure hunt game officially started.

Hours before the game ends: 7h and 30 min.

A/N: Hey everyone! It been a while, no? I feel so bad not updating for a while, but school kept me too busy! My exams literally begins next week friday, but they keep giving me big tasks. FYI my own website is done, I mean the website I needed to make for school and I feel so proud! If I could I would show you, but I can't T_T

Like I told you before some things may not seem logical, like the amount of people at school who aren't realy students or teachers but bear with it.

The symbols were chosen because I wanted so it may sound childish but I found it funny, so yeah.

That's it! I'll try to update more frequentally.

See you in the next chapter!
