For new readers;Natalie joins Hamerton, a large school that has a lot of things going on, most of it being illegal and terrorizing. She is agonized by the news of her friend's tragic death and she has to face up with the Hamerton's bloody governance in order to secure the President's badge that has the power to decode a bomb that could cause a large massacre. she teams up with Trevor, the ex and most renowned president of Hamerton and Class D students against Nicky and her fellow evil seniors.
Where it ended last time: Four years earlier, Mr. Tommy and his first son had resolved to get a kidney transplant for Trevor. Trevor also learned that the two had purposefully turned his mom mad to accomplish their evil plans
Continue;
“Oh.” Steven said to Nicky
while the elevator closed again in front of them. She had told him about the
kidney story while they circled all the Buildings of Hamerton. They had the
responsibility to lock all the classes and taking a roll call of the remaining
students. “So, that’s how and why you got into Trevor’s life in the first
place?”
“Yeah.” She replied. “We
became friends, I didn’t know that I was used. After my parents died and I was
all the more lonely, he took advantage of me. He said he loved me. He was
dying. Because, I believed him, I gave up my kidney to save his life. Sometime
later, Kenneth made me realize that Trevor was lying to me. So, I did what I
could do to get back at him. I told Kenneth where Trevor was keeping Monica.
Trevor was hurt but, he deserves a lot more hell than that. He lied to me.”
Steven was silent digesting
the revelation. He thought of a silly question and dared to ask her. “Do you
need it back?”
“What?”
“The kidney that you gave
Trevor. Do you need it?”
“It’s the fastest way to end
him. Since, I’m no longer under his brother’s wing, I can have it back.”
“How?”
“I can say that, my remaining
kidney is failing and demand to have mine back.”
“Don’t you think that, I
mean… it’s gross, anyway,” he hesitated. “I just think that it will take a
long process, procedure or something. You can just leave it with him.”
She shook her head. “I know
what to do.”
Steven shrugged. “Whatever I
guess.”
4:15pm Natalie checked her
watch. Actually, Trevor’s diamond wrist watch, she never gave it back.
She hastened her pace to the
hill that she used to meet up with him and as she drew near she saw a
silhouette of his back facing her. She scurried to him while the silhouette became
clearer as Trevor’s backside. He was wearing a brown shirt and blue jeans. He
turned his head to her when she begun sitting next to him.
“What’s up?” She greeted.
“I miss you a lot.” He
replied.
“Can we talk about that
later?” she asked obviously still angry at him. “I want to know how and why
Caitlin died.”
“Of course.” He agreed and
hurriedly begun taking out something from his jeans pocket. Natalie waited till
he revealed a folded sheath. He opened it and passed it to her.
She beheld it. It was an
aerial map of part of the school campus. There were some markings on the map,
red spots that Natalie also counted quickly. Five.
“What is that?” she asked.
“A plan as you could call it.
The red spots are the positions of five messengers of a secret sect that were
and still are attempting to destroy the school.”
“A sect? The seniors?”
“Not all the seniors.” He paused.
“The ministers during the former government.”
“What does this map mean? How
does it relate to Caitlin’s death?” she asked, confused.
“The sect was using this map
to organize the bombing that sadly took Caitlin’s life.”
“Wait. You took part in this?”
“I tried to stop them. They were
going to blast the portico of the chief building. On that day, Caitlin was
sitting on the stairs of the portico of the same building. A guy dropped it
close to her and, she picked it up. It looked like a calculator, I think that Caitlin
also thought that it was a calculator. So, she picked it attempting to return
it back to the owner. I saw it and, I couldn’t let her die. So, I had Michael
Reece, Bradford James and Raymond Big snatch it from her hand….
A student passed near Caitlin.
A boy, carrying a backpack. He was a day scholar probably and trying to catch
up with the many school buses on the yard beyond the stairs.
His backpack had one of its
zip opened and as he climbed down the stairs he dropped something from his bag
few steps below where Caitlin sat. Caitlin spotted it and rose. But, the boy
had already boarded his bus.
“Hey!” she called
The boy who saw her from the
bus window did not respond.
Caitlin walked down the steps
and picked up the thing. It was… a
calculator?
As she held it, some boys
walked down the stairs behind her.
“Yes. That was good.” One
said
“Right.” The other replied.
Caitlin moved a foot
attempting to take the calculator to the owner by the bus but, in a flash of a
second it was snatched from her hand.
“What!” she exclaimed,
perplexed. She took a few seconds to recover herself and realize that the boys
who she heard coming behind her, took the calculator and were walking with it
to the same bus that the first boy boarded.
That’s much better… Caitlin thought. She only blinked once and the last sight she had was
the yellow bus and the many students chatting before boarding it.
BOOOOM
Caitlin felt a strong force
throw her into the air and she landed on one side whilst her head hit a very
hard surface.
stay tuned..
