"***" Memorial High School

[My brain's too tired to think of a name for the school - Author]

This is one of the most promising school's in this district.

Specially in terms of literature. Because the name of "***" was the one who made our district known because of his literary works and sacrifices

So that's the story of that school.. but somehow... I still doesn't know why do I have to transfer in this school...

I'm not saying I'm not proud of this school.. But...

There are some rumors where students of that school who picked the IT strand commits suicide before graduation

HUH?...

"Where is it?.." I asked my self as I looked a lot more closer to the bulletin board

"Where's our room???" I asked again after concluding that I can't really find our class room.

"Are you lost?" A voice of a girl whispered through my ear

My self defense mechanism suddenly activated and entered the self destruct mode, where I would totally throw away my dignity by shouting at this hallway. Yet in surprise it was a beautiful teacher (An absolute beauty.) who greeted me from behind

"Y-yes.. It seems..." I said in a flustered manner

"What's your strand?"

"IT..."

"Follow me then"

***

I followed this unusually beautiful teacher into the woods that can be found in this school

We crossed an old bridge (not that old. It seems that the school makes a proper job maintaining an old cemented bridge to still become crossable) that connects to a dark (because of the trees) forest, and inside of it was an old building that has torn paint, rusty screws, and termites eating the old wood that supports the roof

Putting these clues in one place.... My self defense mechanism has reached it's second stage where I totally went freaking out, words that cannot be translated by this universe were said by me, and an unimaginable amount of sweat is flowing out of my body (making my uniform quite wet)

"What's wrong?" The teacher asked as she set her gaze upon me

"T-this.. Isolated place... There's no mistaking it... You're a shotacon!!! (Matured girls that 'sexually' like boys younger than their age)" I shouted while pointing at her

"No way in hell" She instantly replied back with an annoyed face and clinched fist

"Then.. What are we doing here.." I asked her as a sudden gust of wind went rushing towards us and leaves falling down the trees started falling down

The teacher gave a melancholy aura as she catches one of those falling leaves

"Well this is the place where the ridiculed strand and students gather.. by the way I am Mrs. Nin Switch but I rather like it when people call me via my maiden name Tendo"

Name: Nin Tendo - Switch

Age: 22

Console: (too obvious) Nintendo Switch

"O-oh... Good morning Mrs. Switch"

"Call me Tendo when we're alone"

"Then I shall introduce myself too--"

Mrs. Switch covered my lips with her index finger, then gave a "shhh"

"You should tell your name to your new classmates first.. Come, you're going to get late"

***

So now... I'm at the major dilemma of my life.. With these students in front of me, I don't know what to tell and what to act.

Yet Mrs. Switch who's standing at the back gave a honest smile and showed an OK sign with her hand

I cleared my mind and let out a deep breath

"I'm Bonnie Baltazar, graduated from **** Junior High School"

An hour since I met that weird student, and now that I am free today, I went outside towards the door next to my classroom and stretched my arms and back, wiped my glasses and open the door towards a hidden paradise in this strict school

"Good morning Ms. Tendo~" Tetris greeted me as he closed the book that he was reading for a while

"You're early for today's club** activities even though today's the first day of classes" I complimented him

"There's absolutely nothing to do for classes today, so I figured out that I should hang out here for the rest of the day.."

"Crap... I thought that I was the first one to be in the clubroom first.." A familiar face of a guy appeared in front of the doorstep

"Oh Hans.. Funny enough to see your face today, hope you didn't cut class because calculus' been killing off your brain?" Tetris started the forbidden war

"Nah.. I just missed the clubroom.. Good job making the room clean Tet. As expected from the president of the club" Hans refused Tetris' challenge of war, and also made a way to make Tetris more intimidated into him

"F-fine you guys win... I'll think of it" I surrendered. Well a transferee like me to get cornered by these gorgeous gals on the first day of school

"Thank you BonBon!~" Sayori thanked as she lunged towards me and gave me a hug

Oh god of dating simulators, if this was a dream, I wish for not to wake up anymore..

Lunch. 11:35 A.M

I've been feelin' weird with the atmosphere around here... so it made me a bit uncomfortable eating my lunch here, so I went outside to eat all alone by myself

Yet the wind around this place is a bit too strong and every time the wind blows there are also leaves falling down from their branches

But because of those stuff, I noticed the room beside our classroom

It might not be bad if I enter this room right?...

The moment I touched and opened the doorknob, I slowly pushed the door

And there....

I saw my homeroom teacher, together with some students eating their lunch all together while playing Mario Kart.

"I'm sorry for my rudeness..." I said and closed the door

"He--" The guy with the quite the nice looks called me but got cut off after I shut the door

I saw nothing.. I saw nothing...

"Enter the Infamous Game Literature Club"

***

**Hans.

Lunch. «Past Forward» 11:30 A.M**

"Hey Tet what did'ya bring for lunch?" I asked the club president as I take off the tumbler of water out of my bag

"Grilled Chicken" He answered as he proudly picked out the chicken thigh that was skewed along with a stick inside his bag

"How 'bout you Ms. Tendo?"

(G.L.C members call her 'Ms.' even though

she's a married person)

"Uncooked Corned beef." She answered while proudly posing the canned beef near her face like she was the endorser of that item

"Ms. Tendo you really need to cook those canned goods of yours.." I recommended her, as I look at our poor Club Adviser who just eats canned goods during lunch

"Ehh?.. But these canned goods are made ready to eat." She defended

"But cooked corned beef tastes better than the uncooked one.." I continued on persuading her the benefit? and the good thing of eating cooked corned beef

"No." She immediately answered

"Eh?"

"My husband cooked one for me last year. And it was a total disaster since I don't eat onions"

«Mrs. Switch's Weakness #1: Hates eating onions (but a fan of the junk food having the name of 'Onion Rings') [and yes. they also add real onions for the ingredients.]»

"So the real reason you gave us the plate of spaghetti last year when me and Hans joined the club is because..." Tetris suddenly butted in to our conversation adding that Ms. Tendo's dark past

"Yes.. It was because Yugi's (the club president last year) homemade spaghetti has those obvious onions.."

"Well.. The last time I saw Yugi cooked his signature spaghetti was before their graduation last year.. and I would say that.. It was quite dramatic." I added, the number of the dark secrets being gathered in this clubroom is increasing my god!!

"Dramatic?.." Tetris.

I looked away and started to recall the past as I slowly scratch my chin

"Um.. How should I say this?.. His shirt became really wet that time! Because he's been crying nonstop since he started slicing those onions"

- Weird Annoying Flashback -

"Use a grater instead!!!"  I remembered saying that to my senior when I really got annoyed by his crying

- End of W.A.F -

Yugi.

While playing a game with my very close friend, from out of nowhere I suddenly sneezed

"You have a cold?" That friend of mine asked

Name: Teá Yardner

Reference: Teá from Yu-Gi-Oh

"Nothing.. I just felt that someone's talking about me."

Name: Yugi Hugo

Reference: Yugi from Yu-Gi-Oh

"That's just your intuition" she said while looking at me like she's staring on a lowly insect

***

Hans.

Setting those darks secrets aside.. We went on playing Mario Kart while eating our lunch

(Only professionals can do such thing, do it with caution.)

While we're at the middle of eating... and racing.. Since I'm the nearest at the door even though I'm 5 meter afar from there I heard someone turning on the doorknob from the other side

"Hey Tet did you locked the door?"

"How would I know? You're the last one to enter this room so you should know that."

I set my sights at the door while ignoring the fact that I'm still on the race

Then I was really right. I saw a guy opening the door, HOLY SHIT!!! I'VE DONE THE FIRST RULE THAT YOU SHOULD REMEMBER AT THE GAME LITERATURE CLUB!!!: 'DON'T FORGET TO LOCK THE DOOR'

"I'm sorry for my rudeness..." The guy spoked as he closed back the door

"He---" I shouted back but he doesn't seem to hear that

"What's the matter Hans?" Tetris asked who heard me

"A guy accidentally opened the door.."

"Eh??.." Ms. Tendo shouted as she looked at me, then made a run and threw the console

***

Nin.

A-a-a-a student opened the door!? But I told my students that they should never ever open that door! Don't tell me?..

"I saw nothing.. I saw nothing..." The transferee whispered at himself while trembling with his lunch box

"Hey you!!" I quickly grabbed his shoulder and pulled him towards the clubroom

***

"I WON!!!! HAA HAA HAA HA...." Hans laughed like a middle-aged evil scientist while celebrating his victory over Tetris

"You definitely cheated!! How could you beat me in Mario Kart while controlling two carts, and additionally those both carts went first at the finish line before me even though Ms. Tendo's the last in the race after she left.."

"You're just a cry baby for not accepting your defeat."

"Ehem. I found the culprit" I butted in as I show them the transferee

"C-culprit?.." The transferee asked with teary eyes

"And from now on he's a part of our club"

"WHAT!?" He exclaimed and looked again at me

Tetris walked near the transferee and patted his shoulder

"Your fate was already sealed the moment you saw our clubroom"

***

"So... This club is a secret in this school? and for anyone who manages to learn the secret this school hides means they become an instant member of this club?.." Bonnie asked

"Yeah.. But for us we joined because we want to.." Tetris answered while pointing him and Hans

"But I don't want to become a member here in the first place!!.. and I already made up my mind joining into a club that was recommended by a friend of mine.."

I sighed as I felt a bit of discomfort of having a student of mine being forced into a club he's not into, so I went walking towards him and gave a piece of my thought

"I know what you feel Bon.. but we don't trust people that much.. because once the school found out that there's a club that freely violates the rules, they would be furious and might disband this club.. so please.."

"Ok I got it..." He answered back with a disappointed look in his face

***

It's been an hour since Bonnie entered this room.. and he's not moving an inch where he was sitting right now.

And it feels weird for me right now if I tried to play with these idiotic boys who can't read the atmosphere.

I can't help on looking at him from time to time just to see if he's finally recovering.

"Hey. New member.." Tetris approached him with a wireless console at his hand

"I'm Tetris Sento, the club's president. Is there any games you liked? We might have it here"

My face totally went up as I look in awe at Tetris. He's totally doing he's job as the president..

"I'm a fan of horror games.. but doing this here is quite embar---

"---you're now a member of this club, so feel free to play here"

***

"AAAAAAAAARGH.. STOP GIVING ME A HEART ATTACK!!" Tetris shouted like a girl when Hans gave him a little poke while spectating the new guy

While me.. I'm on a trouble of hiding my eyes while occasionally peeking just to check if it's safe to watch now

"Have you already lost the killer?.." I asked

When I checked the screen. There were no more signs of that crazy cult killer wandering around so I finally free my hands that were covering my face the whole time

(Currently playing Outlast 2)

Moments later the camera turned it's back and there was that killer with the huge sickle that was formed into a cross and stabbed it into his crotch

Me, Hans, and Tetris were pale as vampires after that scene happened.

"Oh he got me." He mumbled and chuckled, and he seemed enjoyed that part and no signs of pressure at all

"You're not scared?." Tetris asked who is still shaking from that traumatic scene

"Not at all, and it's pretty normal for a person to take a jumpscare or two in this level."

Tetris grabbed his collar and shake him like crazy

"The one that isn't normal here is you not being afraid of these horrible stuff made by the society!!" He added with tears still flowing out of his eyes

(After this. Tetris haven't forgotten what happened and it was now carved in his memories.. and nightmares)

But I was glad that he seemed to enjoy the game he was playing even though he was encircled with the people who scared him recently..

But.. I would be more glad if I can see more students to join and have fun in this club..

If only..
