1 Prologue

In the small room, students doing their best to survive in this sudden events. Separated with the rest of their friends and family. Some of them staring at nothing, probably thinking of how did all of this happened in a short time. It feels like they were just laughing and talking with their friends a while ago, listening or getting scolded by their teachers for not paying attention in the class.

Some were crying while their friend/s hugging and rubbing their hair and back as a way to comfort them. Some are calm, acting as their usual self. What's gonna happen now? Are they gonna just die here, hiding from the strange outside and starve?

"I believe it's a virus…" the oldest person inside the room spoke. Mr. Yuno, in charge of the school surveillance. Sitting all noon facing the two monitors, watching every corner of the school for any suspicious moves while at morning teaches students about Physical Education. Mr. Yuno was famous around the campus, girls liking him and boys looking up at him. He is one of the reliable teachers in this school. He has curly obsidian hair and tired red eyes, 189cm in height. He is also one of the single teacher, saying he's not interested at the thought of wearing a ring on his finger or being tied to someone.

Few of students turns their head at the 34 year old teacher, "like zombies?" a guy sitting on the floor, resting his arms on his bended knees while gripping his fist as he stares at the cold floor said. His ID hanging around his neck, Chards was printed as his name, the picture were very different from when it was taken to what expression his face made now. He was smiling, opposite to what he does this time. His dark green hair was so live and his brown eyes sparkles at the thought of having a new ID in new school year, and maybe at that time he's wishing for the year to be awesome and memorable. Well, it is memorable.

"Do they look like a zombie to you?" another guy said, Ian, a senior in the room. His turquoise eyes meet Chards brown one. He then ran his fingers through his black locks. Ian was frustrated by being trapped in the room, he wanted to go home and play his game all night. He and his friend, Sein and Rayner, planned to go to the computer shop before going home until the disaster happened leading them to this cold room with nothing to eat.

"They're monsters." the girl in far corner stated quietly, but still reached across the room. All of them whipped their heads to her, surprised at the new voice they heard after being trapped inside the Surveillance Room. Iena, the girl who was so quiet which is unusual of her. She hugged her own knees and burried her face on her arm before looking at them. Her black messy hair parted making her face visible to the people inside the room. Though her emerald eyes stays on the black orbs her friend, Raven owns.

"Yeah, they look like monsters." Rico said, nodding as agreement.

"Just look at how their eyes turned all black." Miles, (also Rico) Chards classmate said. Miles and Rico are bestfriends as they grow up. They were classmates for 9 years and bestfriends since birth as their parents were close as business partners. Rico's the calm and quiet one while Miles the goofy and annoying one.

Their conversation were interrupted as the blonde girl's stomach growl in hunger which made them to face her. She was sitting on the table, leaning back to the wall as she close her eyes shut in embarrassment. Her face and uniform was stained in blood as well as her ID, you can't almost read her name as blood covers the letters but she is called "angel's beauty". Not only because she was belong to the Beauty Care class but she also was the standard beauty of an angel and with blood in her face, she becomes more attractive like she committed a crime and is exiled from heaven. Like a fallen angel.

"Who else hungry?" Mr. Yuno asked, standing from his swivel seat and walks towards the other side of the room, opening the boxes with full of biscuits, chocolates, drinks and blankets.

After they ate, Mr. Yuno offered them blankets and pillows to share with. Separating the girls and boys with boxes in the middle. There were six girls and six boys excluding Mr. Yuno. After an hour of preparing them to rest, some passed out in exhaustion immediately while others an hour. Everyone was asleep except Iena.

Staring right in the ceiling with wide eyes, keeping herself to close her eyes and take a rest by pinching her side everytime. She then took a glance of their temporary guardian sitting on his swivel seat, eyes close as his head leans on his crossed arms that were placed on the table in front of the monitor.

Iena quietly pull the blanket off of her, sighing as she didn't make too much movements that could cause them to woke up. She tiptoed towards the only source of light, the monitor. As she stood beside the teacher, Iena slowly move her face closer to Mr. Yuno's face, checking if he's awake or in deep slumber.

Halfway, a voice reached Iena's ears made her flinch and whipped her head to the left. Iena's emerald eyes meet an intimidating one Sein owned.

"What are you doing?" Sein whispered, it's loud whisper though.

Iena retreated her face and awkwardly stood there, rubbing her jacket's hem between her forefinger and thumb. "Um.. I was just checking if he's really in deep sleep." looking away from Sein's curious eyes.

"Why?" Sein asked, pulling his shared blanket with Rayner and slowly stands, towering over the girl. Iena gulped thickly as she raises her head to check Sein's expression. But he has no expression for her to read.

"I... just.. cause.." Iena hesitates, looking everywhere but Sein.

"What? Are you planning on going outside?"

"Uhh... kinda?"

"Don't." he said, but sounds commanding. "It's dangerous outside. You should go back to bed and try or force yourself to slee-"

"But I wanna go to the restroom." Iena cutted Sein.

"Oh."
