It was supposed to be a great day, with classes starting back up and the first weekend of the school year coming back up, but after the storm last night, and during the blackout… something changed. You’re all woken up to an announcement, telling all year levels to go to a specific designated room, for the third years, they were directed to the gymnasium, where the principal and Ranna stood on a stage. You all slowly mingle into your class groups until your drawn to silence by Ranna grasping tightly to one of the microphones and mutters softly.
“…P-Please, everybody, can you calm yourselves for a second!"
The absolute fear in her voice shut you up, the principal gives her a tigh smile, something akin to despair shadowing her dull and expressionless features. With a soft intake of break he nods at Ranna, and she nervously adjusts her tie.
“Unfortunately, I’ve realized that it’s too late to act like… like nothings going on. Last night, like Ura Ai, there’s been another death. If you look around this gym, you’ll notice that… somebody is missing.”
You all look around the room, Lyra Ralvei doesn’t seem to be present. Dread fills the pits of your stomachs and Ranna’s hands begin to shake, the Principal ends up holding the microphone for her.
“…There was an unfortunate incident last night- one that many of you may require counselling for. Tragically, and supernaturally, LyraRalvei was found twisted and squashed underneath a technology trolley on the bottom of the flight of stairs on the first floor- she had a slight trauma to the back of the head, and one of her cervical vertebrae was snapped upon impact from the stairs, killing her instantly.”
There is only gasps and sobs that fall over the crowd, Ranna struggles to keep her composure.
“I’ve called all your third years here because… this is not natural. Either was Ura’s death. I- better then anybody else, know this. Classes 3-2 and 3-3, we believe that you are all cursed. Due to a-“
Her gaze seems to fall on a student from 3-1, who stares back fiercely.
“An incident, that occurred, the natural balance of life and death amidst your classes have been disrupted. Life is a natural thing, it’s beautiful, but trying to bring somebody back from the dead causes misfortune and brings about death. It’s what happened in 2002, it’s what’s happening now. We believe that four student’s who were once previously dead have come back. Two have possessed the bodies of those who were brought to our campus without our knowledge, whom we are aware of and tracking down- but…”
She pauses and bows her head.
“…There are two we’re afraid we don’t know about. They are among you. They… probably don’t even know it themselves. Lost spirits who are unaware of just how dastardly their presence is. The only way to stop the deaths now is to kill them and release the spirits-“
Her gaze returns to the 3-1 area.
“…All of them.”
Taira Sae turns and walks out the gym room, she’s fuming. Ranna stares after her, a look of disgust present of her features.
“It is up to you to find them, and to kill them. Officially on Monday I will be taking a bullet for the team and… performing the task.”
She shakes.
“…Now, however, is no time for that. Now is a time of mourning.”
She gestures around the room to tables full of food, of books, of flowers.
“Write a message to the dead that they can bring with them to their graves, get flowers, have something to eat- we can’t forget their spirits, we can’t forget them. Write a message to the friends you love, show them how much you care- because from here on out…”
Ranna drops to her knees and whimpers.
“…Y-You never know… who you’re going to lose!”
Next to Ranna on either side of the make-believe stage is two pictures, one of Ura Ai and one of Lyra Ralvei. There are baskets next to their pictures and candles. You’re also made away by the principal that a little later there will be a “talent by bonfire” night in an attempt to cheer the kids up and let them show off any talents they may have.
But for now?
For now you must mourn.
[ at least 48 hours, all year 3 npc's - taira are here]
You need to write a note to offer up about both deceased, or you could chose not to- there's food to eat, NPC's to talk to, you can pray, you can write letters to other NPC's... You've got this.
