HARRISON UNIVERSITY: The School of Monsters

PROLOGUE

'The greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. But the more runoff, the more I highlight what I leave behind.

I am Myrttle Joong. A freshmen college student.

I don't usually give a damn for every insignificant thing around me. Including the idea of being at any school.

But my grandfather sent me to a school named 'HARRISON UNIVERSITY'

Another typical but high-end school congested with bitches, nerds, lovers, jerks, bullies, and the pathetic ones who love to see themselves bullied.

But everything changes after I started to see bizarre things, I never wish to involve with.

'Monsters'—that's what Harrison University has.

From that day on, I noticed that all things happening inside this campus are akin to each other.

But why did my fate brought me here? Am I also related to this mess?

CHAPTER ONE

Myrttle's Point of View

"Myrttle, Honey. Are you done preparing your things for your school tomorrow?" `Nay Julie asked me again after washing dishes.

I lamely shake my head, trying not to show her how unhappy I am involving myself to a school again. But before 'Nay Julie started to bug me again with her question. I prepared the stuff she is referring, since I know Nay Julie is not the kind of person who supports those kind of reasons. I think a few stuff will be enough until I find my way out to that school again. Like what I'm working out for the past few months.

Tss, this is his fault! I still can't believe that Harrison University administrator had some shitty guts to force someone to be in their assistance just for their damn benefits! Tomorrow will be my first day of being a college student. And hell no for saying I am excited about it! Does Lolo think that I like to be involved in any of this?

I don't understand why do people need to be in someplace they never wished to be!

I've done everything just to run away from everyone. Skipping several schools that Lolo recommended. Trying my very best to hide it from my grandfather. But he keeps on finding it out!

That's why here I am, preparing all this stuff to face that damn school whose administrator reported me to Gramps. But who cares? I know there is still a way to get rid of them. The devils always find their way, anyway.

And why do I need to do this?

Well... it's all for nothing...

I just can't bear to be involved with anyone again.

I will not let myself...because I never wanted it.

That's right. That is your reason, Myrttle.

After putting a binder and a pen in my bag. I noticed a red paper I dropped while arranging the documents Harrison University delivered me this morning.

It instantly burst my bubbles as I recalled who sent this shit in my place! I snatched it and crumpled it into pieces. Who else it could be?! It is that life wrecker school administrator who has an initial of 'B.H'. He wrote me something very grave for their student who's skipping their classes! A very nice note that could literary brought their student back to them. Well, not me shit-face.

From: B.H.

You're not attending your classes. See you around at the University tomorrow or I'll be the one who'll drag you here!

P.S

I am dead serious, Ms. Joong.

Just be ready letter sender, I'll make sure you regret the day messing up with me!

* * *

I woke up early as `Nay Julie's alarm smacked my head up. She was so excited every time I get a chance to be at my new school. That's why she alarmed her clock beside me one hour before I should wake up. It leaves me no choice because I know Graps will be mad at me If I ditch this class again. Which I never wish to happen, knowing who my grandfather was.

"Hurry up, Honey! Shenny and Alexander are already downstairs. Your friends are waiting for you at our kitchen!" She sang and I instantly stood up when I heard Shenny's name!

"Shenny at my kitchen?!" I screamed as I carelessly run downstairs and reach our kitchen.

"Shenny! Don't ever dare to touch my gummy worms!" I run yelling.

But it was too late.

My helpless gummy worms are now dying in the jaw of a petite, pale-skinned girl with wavy long hair. Shenny Park!

I knew it!

Her gluttony makes me kicked her ass as hard as it should, which is not supposed to happen. But dang! It's her fault!

Shenny garbly shouted in pain but still manage to chew my gummy worms! I don't feel guilty at all, I glare at her as she stood up holding her hips with a barely perceptible expression. I turned my back and look for my food storage. That's when the time Xander appeared out of nowhere.

"Myrttle! What have you done!" He quickly gone to Shenny and check her out as if he's the boyfriend she never had. Tss. Whatever.

Well, he is Alexander Mitsuo. A hopeless lover-boy who always wants Shenny's attention. But his height can't support that though, kidding.

I didn't mind their protest and without hope I open my refrigerator that seems like my empty soul.

No way!

My Gummy worms! They're gone!

"Shenny!" I screamed, but as soon as I faced them. They are already gone!

You traitors!

I couldn't imagine that there is still a space for this day to be the worst. How could that witch ate my one-month stocks of gummy worms?! Ugh!

Hastily getting myself ready. I heard Shenny and Xander talking to 'Nay Julie downstairs. They are waiting for me, but I never have plans to go to that damn school with them! Hell no! After what they did?!

Wearing a simple hooded jacket and pants, I marched downstairs and quickly pulled my car out of our garage for a ride. I stuffed in the flash-drive, that the university gave to me. They instructed me to plug it into any USB-port on my way to their place, so I did.

And to my surprise, a hologram-like map appeared at the edge of this thing that made me raised a brow. It seems like a map that is directing me to the University.

"Cool," I muttered.

Well, not enough to impress me B.H!

I started following the arrow at the hologram. Weirdly, it's directing me to the far huge forest near our city. Which made it seems like, only those who knew this university can barge in. Not including the fact that it ain't a good place to build a university.

I rolled my eyes as I remember Shenny and Alexander. They are heading the same way I am taking, and I don't have a plan to wait for them. Or should I? Ugh! Nevermind!

Alexander Mitsuo and Shenny Park are living two blocks away from my house. I didn't want to get any of my neighbors' attention, so I didn't socialize with them since I moved in. Except for these two, who keeps on bugging my peaceful life. Offering me different kinds of stuff just to be called a good neighbor. And it is a shame that all I can do to get rid of them is to befriend them. Which I think I should regret now.

It's 'Nay Julie's fault for letting that two knew about me getting to the same school they were.

They're enrolled in a different field that will take as their first step for their dream profession. Which I somehow envy, for I can't dream of something a normal teenager have to be. I don't have my rights to do such a thing. That's why all I could dream of right now is to shove people out of my life.

Anyway, my grandfather enrolled me in a Management course. For he knew it could somehow help me with the different reality I have.

I stopped my car as I've reached the place on the map where the school initials are blinking.

They must be kidding. This is the end of the road. There is nothing else here, except from the giant walls of trees in front of me, which look like it is guarding something.

"Are you even working?!" I wailed at the hologram. I am not in the mood to be fool by a gadget, for God sake!

In a moment, the hologram flickered and show me more direction. It says I should go straight ahead of these trees that are way too impossible!

I looked around, displeased, hopelessly looking for a way. Until I saw somethings odd below the middle huge tree, ten meters away from me.

There is an unusual space beneath the tree that is almost hidden the way the roots are placed on its top.

Wait, is that a... tunnel?

Oh god, this is insane. Who could have thought that they could hide tunnels under a tree? Is that even possible?

I started my engine and drove in as I wiped my useless question off my mind. All right! Let's see how far this school can show off.
