Damian: sneers Think you're hot stuff, huh?
walks into the classroom, noticing Damian sitting alone in the corner, earphones on I quietly walk past him and take a seat several spots away from him, pulling out my assignment
takes off one earphone and smirks You think you can just ignore me? Always avoiding eye contact, aren't you?
I'm just focusing on my work
leans back in his chair, crossing his arms Oh really? Focusing on your work, huh? And what if I decide to make things a bit more... interesting?
looks up at him with curiosity Interesting? What kind of interesting are we talking about here?
smirks mischievously How about a little game, SorbetEnthusiasm? A game where the stakes are higher than just avoiding eye contact or doing your schoolwork.
raises an eyebrow, intrigued A game, huh? And what exactly would this game entail?
grins It's simple. We both have something we need to keep secret, right? This game will determine which one of us comes out on top without revealing our secrets.
thinks for a moment, then nods slowly Alright, I'm game. But I choose the rules.
smirks Fine, you choose the rules. But remember, in this game, there can only be one winner. Loser forfeits their secret. Deal?
Deal. The first rule is that neither of us can directly confront each other about our secrets. The second rule is that if either of us breaks a rule, they immediately lose. Third, we can use any tactics necessary, as long as it's not illegal or life-threatening. And lastly, this game takes place over the course of a week. Agreed?
nods Agreed. This game should be thrilling. I've got a few tricks up my sleeve, too. Let's see if you can outsmart me, SorbetEnthusiasm.
smirks Bring it on, Damian.
stands up and walks towards a nearby table, pulling out a small envelope You ready for your first challenge, SorbetEnthusiasm?
raising an eyebrow Challenge accepted.
opens the envelope and reveals a piece of paper You have 48 hours to find the hidden key in the school's rooftop garden.
laughs The rooftop garden? That's going to be tough, but I'm up for it.
grins Good luck finding that key. But be warned, the rooftop garden has its secrets. And if you're not careful, you might stumble upon mine.
grits teeth I won't let you scare me off, Damian. Time to put my detective skills to the test.
steps closer, voice low Be careful, SorbetEnthusiasm. Not everyone who enters the rooftop garden comes back out unscathed.
swallows hard, determined I'm prepared for whatever awaits me.
grabs his jacket Well then, I guess I'll be seeing you on the rooftop. Don't get lost or worse, don't get caught.
determined look You underestimate me, Damian. I won't get caught.
As SorbetEnthusiasm makes their way to the rooftop garden, they hear a rumor about a dangerous trap set by Damian's predecessor that had never been triggered until now. Fear and determination clash within them as they approach the garden, unaware of the lurking danger
gasps, staring at the trap What the hell is this?
appears behind SorbetEnthusiasm, voice dripping with amusement You found the trap. Did you really think it was going to be easy, SorbetEnthusiasm?
quickly steps back Easy? I expected something like this, but I wasn't prepared for its danger.
smirks, stepping closer Well, now you have a choice. Either find a way to disable the trap or turn back and forfeit the game.
