# The game starts here.
label start:
"August 22, the first day of school."
"None of this feels real honestly."
"I mean, I just moved here all the way from Belgium"
"and now I'm starting sophomore year in one of the best schools in the world!"
"I just know that from this day forth, my life will completel-"
"Wait."
"IS THAT THE TIME? SHIT I HAVE TO GET DRESSED"
"I was so into my monologue I forgot what time it was!"
"*As I am getting ready, the screen is black*"
"Except for the textbox of me saying shit during it."
y "Good morning swee-"
w "LOVE YOU THANK YOU BYE!!"
"*cg of her running with a waffle in her mouth*"
w "IS THAT THE BUS? CRAP!"
"Eventually, I managed to get the bus to stop for me. Not without the bus driver scolding me, of course, with words I wouldn’t dare repeat."
"When I got on, I noticed that the bus was packed to the brim."
"As I scanned the rows with the bus driver heckling me to sit down."
"a hand at the very back waved at me to come over."
"When I got back there, I saw a tired looking student with green hair looking out the window."
w "Pretty edgy."
"I took my seat next to them as they turned to me."
m "You’re new here aren’t you?"
w "Oh! Yeah, I’m a transfer student from Belgium!"
m "You excited?"
w "Yeah!"
m "Bet you’re gonna have a good year?"
w "Mhm!"
w "He laughed in my face."
m "Ha, well, welcome to Hell."
"He turned back to the window, leaving me awkwardly sitting there in silence."
w "Someone needs to cheer up…"
w "Well, I’m Tournai!"
"Still in his current position, he reached out a hand which I readily took, and we shook hands. I noticed his black finger nails and fingerless gloves."
w "Total edgelord"
m "Morgan."
w "So… How is it like there?"
m "Well, I mean, it’s good if ya wanna do art or go to some ivy league school. The experience itself is not so great to be honest, but I’m probably asking for it."
"I took into account everything I noticed about Morgan: Green hair, tired eyes with eyeliner, fingerless gloves, black nail polish, and a stone-cold face, not to mention pretty chubby. I would imagine he wouldn’t have the best social experience at school."
"Hopefully, he just meant that school was hard. If there was a bullying problem at school no doubt I would get targeted for being a foreign transfer student!"
m "But I’m sure you’ll be alright…"
"Eventually, we did get to school."
"*Shows Picture of the School*"
w "Wow, so this is Asagohan Academy..."
"The large yellow and red building loomed over us sending a shiver down my spine by how intimidating the size was. The front of the school had neatly trimmed trees with bright yellow leaves and hedges lining the surprisingly very white paved walkways."
"It was teeming with life, students sitting at the benches or on the freshly mowed grass laughing and sharing what fun things they did over the summer. I turned to with the thought of asking him about how his summer break was when suddenly…"
q "HEY IT’S THEM!"
"All conversation seemed to ceased when everyone turned to see what was going on. I turned my head too and noticed that practically everyone who was once sitting down was now standing in a crowd surrounding a group of people."
"Students were either watching or trying with some succeeding in talking to them. I wonder what the big deal is?"
w "What’s going on? Who are they?"
m "Oh, only the most popular people at school. Insert descriptions of all members here."
"With all their diverse appearances and personalities, they all seemed like a cast of characters in some high school movie or video game."
"For my own amusement, I jokingly thought that if this really were some kind of movie or video game, that I would be the protagonist, managing to join into their ranks in popularity after helping them in some way, or falling in love with one of them, experiencing an emotional rollercoaster from beginning to end."
"But in all honestly, I was probably just another extra walking around in the background of their no doubt perfect lives. I tuned back in to Morgan who was still talking about them like he was preaching to someone about God on their doorstep."
m "They’re all in the same club too but it’s like, super hard to get into."
w "Ooooo, sounds prestigious! What kind of club is it?"
m "It’s nothing special really it’s just a –"
"He was cut off by the school bell ringing, signaling not just for everyone to get inside and into class but that summer break was officially over. Everyone including the group of popular kids got up and started heading into the school in droves."
"Thankfully, it turned out I had the same homeroom as Morgan so I just followed him there. I was considering asking Morgan to finish telling me about the club those mysterious popular kids were in, but the hallway was already too loud with the chatting and shouting of teenagers, not to mention hard to move around, I decided to keep it to myself."
"It was probably for the best anyways, I mean, what was the point in having interest in a club I couldn’t possibly get into? It was probably going to be pretty boring anyways."
w "Even if I’m not the protagonist of some tropey piece of American media, from this day forth my life will completely change, and I can say that at least! I can try new things, make new friends, breathe new air! This was a new chapter, an exciting adventure, a brand new choose-your-adventure game on PC that I read the description to and didn’t bother reading the reviews!"
w "I was taken out of my thoughts when were finally arrived at the door to homeroom: 218C. I was nearly out of breath once we got there! We had to walk to pretty much the other end of the school, and that together with all our navigating and wedging through people just trying to get here, it was enough exercise to not have to do PE for a year! Well, I’m sure that at least the teachers were nice!"
t "Can you headaches just shut up for a minute?!"
t "Alright, let’s see here… Ah it looks like we have a new student."
t "Whatsherface! Get your butt up here and introduce yourself! And you better be sharp about it!"
w "I was wrong."
w "Hello, I'm Tournai! I moved here from Belgium and I'm ha-"
t "Alright that's enough dear now everyone turn to page 75 in your textbook and begin reading"
w "Well… That sucked. Looks like this school isn't all sunshine and lollipops as I had thought."
"Fast forward later, we were now at lunch. Morgan practically dragged me over here as he made a mad dash for the cafeteria and I’m glad he did. This place got packed! The lines were so long that they managed to spread to outside of the cafeteria, and there was so little seats that students actually stood along the walls!"
"We were lucky enough to get a seat, however, so that’s a victory there. I’m sure this is simply the result of people’s schedules getting sorted out and its only temporary… Right?"
m "Sorry you had to deal with that, I heard that Ms. Faust was terrible, but I didn’t know it was THIS bad!"
w "I think that was probably the worst experience I had with a teacher, ever!"
m "And trust me, honey, it gets worse."
w "Probably noticing my gloominess, he quickly added on to that statement"
m "But maybe it wouldn’t be so bad for you, y’know? I mean there’s still the rest of the day and I doubt you’re gonna have the same experiences I have, so I’m sure you’ll be fine."
m "…"
m "Anyways, have you considered joining any clubs yet?"
w "No, not yet, what kind of clubs are there?"
m "Well, since this is an art and preparatory school, it has the standard stuff: National Art Honors Society, Robotics, Theatre, Orchestra, Chorus, Math Club, community service, etc."
m "I personally, am part of the Occult Club."
w "Of course you are."
m "I’m sure Master Camio would be happy to have a new member in our circle."
"He smiled creepily at me."
w "Yeah… No."
m "Keheh… I’m just messin’ with ya."
w "Well, there did happen to be a club that I had interest in. I saw the flier for it as Morgan and I were running to get her."
" “Video Game Design Club” It said, “Ever wanted to make your own game? Well here’s your chance! Team up with the school’s best artist, composers, writers, and coders to make your dream come true! Auditions now!” "
"Although video games never really had an influence on my life, I did do a lot of drawing and I was pretty dedicated to trying out new things."
"I was considered a pretty good artist back in my old school, so I’m sure it wouldn’t hurt to try out after school for the art department, even if it did seem pretty weird to hold auditions for a club that was probably pretty unpopular."
w "Well… I think the video ga-"
m "I’m gonna have to cut you off right there. The bell is about to ring in two minutes, so if you value your life, I suggest heading to your next class right now."
"And with that he sprinted away, dodging and navigating through students with surprising ease. Welp, I guess I can always tell him tomorrow on the bus!"
"The day wasn’t that bad from that point on. Since it was the first day, there wasn’t a lot of work to do, so most of class time was spent going over classroom rules and procedures."
"I was still relieved when it was finally time for everyone to go home for the day. I ran up the steps fishing my usb filled with my art from my backpack, wanting to be early and prepared for the auditions so I can get it over with faster and go home."
"I stopped in front of room 233B, where the flier said the club room was. I took a second to relax and gain some composure before actually going in. This was so exciting! The butterflies in my tummy were absolutely restless, who knows what might go down at this audition?"
"Who knows, maybe I get in and manage to play a part in what happens to be the next new hit indie game! Or maybe my artistic prowess gets recognized by some big name corporation or celebrity and I make it big! Whatever happens here, I have a feeling it’s going to affect me in some big way!"
"Feeling as ready as I could possibly be, I grabbed the door knob and wrenched the door open."
"It was absolute chaos."
"Chapter 1 End"
"Chapter 2 Start"
"The moment I entered the room I could tell everyone was busy with their own projects."
"There were papers strewn all over the tables and floor"
"There was so much commotion that I couldn’t even hear myself"
c "Oh! I have an idea! Let's make a dating sim where you date a French Toast!....wait a second..."
b "Let's make a capsule mon game where you summon demons and when they lose the trainer gets eaten."
le "Yo, we should make a party game where in virtual reality you can play instruments and learn just by virtual reality so it's fun! And educational"
jo "bullet hell game that consists of mutant food that is trying to attack you while you dodge bullet seeds!"
co "LETS MAKE A CAT GAME WHERE YOU COLLECT CATS. EVERY CAT IN THE WORLD."
ca "Let's make an anime mmorpg that makes you learn Japanese!"
n "Let's make a game where you can dance to anime songs!"
"SO MANY PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT PROJECTS I CAN'T EVEN MONOLOGUE MYSELF!"
ju "um...hello everyone!"
n " I got this Juan."
n "GUYYYYYYYYYYYYYYS."
"Everyone starts to settle down and quiet."
j "Thank you. Now we have someone to introduce, she recently passed the auditions. Her name is Tournai!"
"Everyone claps."
j "Welcome to the club. Tournai! I am the most perfect being of all the school. Jimmy."
c "”Tournay” is it? “Tornien?””tournied?”"
w "You know what just call me Tori"
c "Anyways, Hello Tori! I am Cube!"
ca "Hello Tournai!~ I am Carla! But you can also call me Car."
n "Hello Tour…Tori! I am Nicole."
b "Who are you again? It doesn’t matter, my name is Breijo."
co "Sup Tournai, I am connor, don’t be surprised if I bite you time to time."
"this guy seems to be blushing, I wonder what’s up with him?"
jo "O-oh! Hello! My name is Jose! I hope we get along! Hehe."
"That was strange…"
s "Oh uh, hello pleasant. I am Security"
le "Ayy Lmao, I am Leo, I hope you like maymays"
w "uh…excuse me?"
w "*mumbles* what are maymays…?"
ju "Is that everyone? Alright, so my name is Juan, I am your president. I hope you have fun in the video game design club."
ju "And now, is the big choice of the project."
"Everyone is eager for the big reveal, including me, so many ideas to think from!"
ju "The game we are making…"
ju "Is a zombie survival game."
w "Zombie…Survival?"
"Everyone responded the same way as me."
ju "Yes, the whole city is infested with zombies and it up to each character that we make to save the city."
ju "As for the characters…well, that’s all for you to decide! So let’s think of the playable characters! Right Now!"
w "I have an idea!"
"Everyone then starts to stare"
w "Um…well, how about someone who just moved to the city. And now they have to fend them off? And they are pretty normal and average."
ju "I like that idea, they could be the main character and other people team up with them!"
ca "Oh! I got one! Maybe they team up with a robot who is supposed to counter the zombie threat."
le "I got it, a fun loving guy who doesn’t really seem to take the whole apocalypse thing seriously."
j "Someone who is perfect at everything, and was definitely prepared for the whole apocalypse."
c "How about someone who knows about the zombies and maybe a cure for them."
b "Lol, screw that, someone who kills all of them relentlessly without caring who and what they are."
n "Someone is more about defense rather than offense and protects the main character."
co "Someone who can BITE all their enemies and not get infected, they are practically an animal! And do many attacks similar to an animal."
s "Someone who is in the and does air strikes rather than on land"
jo "Someone who uses a sword and is very eager and confident"
ju "Alright, perfect, we got all our characters for the game! We will start working tomorrow. Good work everyone!"
"Everyone started to leave one by one, I was the last one to go."
ju "Wait, Tournai!"
w "Hm?"
ju "I just want to say…I hope you have fun in this club. I can tell you will be a useful person in this club in the future."
"My eyes opened and I gave a smile"
w "Thank you Juan, I’m excited as well for what comes in this club. I’m happy to be working with you! "
"And that was the first day of the Video Game Design Club."
z "Hey! Tournai!"
"I turned around, it was Morgan!"
m "So how was your first day at the club?"
w "It went really well! We are making a zombie survival game."
m "Now THAT’S something I could get into."
m "And…who interested you the most?"
"…This feels very important"
"…Who did interest me the most?"
