When it's rays are somewhat beginning to peer its way over the horizon, that's when the students of the Institution arrived at the threshold of their respective rooms. No student was like the next, each attending the academy for a unique purpose. It was an early morning ritual at the academy, one that signified the start of another day — another brand new and dark semester of subjects to venture through.In the midst of this lighthearted atmosphere, however, a solemn presence also hung in the air, like a veil of darkness.

Every corner seemed to be a cacophony of whispers and glances in my direction. I tried not to pay much attention to it, but the noise was becoming too loud — like a growing storm that was threatening to blow me away. As I cascaded down the cold and unfamiliar path, passing by students who were chatting about me, I can hear occasional murmurs of my name and conversations that seemed to stop as soon as I approached. I felt like their incessant gossips about me was seemingly like ghost gliding across the floor, as their whispers and rumors followed me everywhere into every bits of the space. My stomach churned both nervously and furiously, and I wanted to turn around and run away. But I didn't. I kept walking, pretending I couldn't hear the snide remarks and judgmental stares. I k

As I walked through the assembly halls once again, Serene asked me those queries like a normal kick starter yet I'm deadly sure inside her, she already knew the answer to those. She asked as if this were all perfectly normal. As if we were not dancing on the strings of puppeteers who cared nothing for our well-being.As she walk together by me, side by side she playfully nudged me with her elbows while wearing a grin on her face — which probably pertains to the harsh truth that I am still not getting used to the wicked games that their institution has been forcing me to play with. That's not entirely a lie though.

It seemed to close in around me, suffocating and claustrophobic. An icy grip of dread and doom seized my heart as I thought of what horrors this place might contain. The shadows seemed to dance and whisper at the edges of my vision, mocking and jeering. "Fuck, Ruby. You better knew where this one will end," I was infinitely cursing myself under my breath as I take in the dread with my eyes closed. I knew I shouldn't go in, that this was a terrible idea. But my curiosity was piqued, and I had come this far. Grazing my eyes even more trying to shake the anxiety creeping up on me, I saw under the dim nights that the surroundings of the tent was a perfect chaos — where broken chairs and debris were strewn about, like it was remnants of s

Hushed whispers and muffled giggles fill the air, as my nervous glances and the flickering glances of lights I am perceiving gave me an exchanged of fear around the table. Yet, no matter what I do, I knew deep inside me a raised awareness of the fact that I had willingly walked into this situation where my deepest secrets could be pried from me, my darkest desires manipulated. So, this was all on me. Again. A wrong turn for me, again. These just means that I had walk through a scene where there would be no escape for me once the game began, and no way to refuse a truth or dare handed down from on high land.

The cold shadows in the corners of the room grew, crawling slowly towards me, making my whole body tremble with mixed emotions. In my peripheral view, I could sense the card dealer's dark presence watching, waiting eagerly to see what I would say. For some damn minutes, I just sat there immobilized, staring at the question, and the scarlet ink on the parchment shimmering in an unearthly light. The words on it seemed to squirm before my eyes, the letters twisting i

Eyes followed me down the corridors, people stopping mid-conversation to stare. I tried to ignore them, focus on the mundane tasks of getting to class on time, but the sinister glances and hushed voices filled the air like a miasma. In between their murmurs I could clearly hear their own versions of the twisted situation on the carousel scene last night. After the last night's sinister truth or dare game, when I found Lilian's body on the carousel, everything had changed.That certain midnight events were shrouded in a darkness I could still feel gripping at my soul.
