It was hard during the past week to try to cram all the class materials to avoid being busted by Luke.

I went to the library everyday, but what was impossible from the start was deemed to be impossible even though I put in all my effort in.

Luke also started to suspicious when he looked at my cheap meals and he started to stop ordering extravagant meals that he used to eat for the first few days after we got our points.

Today was the day before the exams that the school was supposed to announce. We gathered in our homeroom class waiting for the news as usual.

"Today, what I'm about to announce is your next exam that's going to start tomorrow. However you will be given a one week time frame to complete your first ever practical exam in the third district." Daniel announced.

Did God finally hear my prayers for the first time? It looks like he's actually doing his job for once!

"You will be going to schools in the third district to teach one subject to the people in your grade for one week. Those who have students who score higher than other classes will get more points, but it can also go the opposite way. Good luck everybody! Details will be given tomorrow and you'll get time to get ready today." Daniel said with great energy.

I hoped that I didn't look too excited. Teaching people in grade six with the level that is similar from my past life was way easier than writing exams in elementary school. Making this the most easiest exam I ever had in this life!

I had to prevent myself from smiling as I tried to think of sad things (which was mostly studying in this hell-like school).

"Let's go to our room to prepare for tomorrow's exam Rika," Luke said while facing me.

Why not? This was a easy way to earn points anyways.

"Sure."

Luke and I headed towards our room while both Shelly and Ellen went back to their rooms with their partners as well.

When I went into the room with Luke, there were stuff from the third district on our desks. A flat screen smartphone, a special school uniform, pencil case and the other typical stuff.

Since we would be getting the details tomorrow, I decided to go to sleep as my world started to fade into absolute darkness.

Drops of rain landed on my face as I ran towards the cathedral. The building was quite a mystery with its white brick exterior and dazzling stained glass that was reflecting the particles of water.

Ding. Ding. Ding.

The grand sound of the church bell resounded against my heart to reaffirm my purpose of why I came here in the first place.

I quickly tried to pry open the deteriorating entrance as to my relief wasn't locked.

When I looked around the interior of the building, I found the place was empty with its typical wooden glazed benches and cross near the front behind the statue.

The pure white statue was big enough to cover my eleven year old body. I decided to hide behind the statue as I prayed for my fragile life.

Bang!

Someone slammed the door open with sounds of holding a long scythe dragging onto the floor.

That someone was someone that I knew. That someone was a person who smiled sincerely from the bottom of her heart which attracted many people who wanted spend their time together with her just to see her smile.

She had a great sense of justice and unwavering sets of beliefs that gave her an unbelievable amount of charisma. It was like nature made this beautiful doll that was to be put on the pedestal for admiration.

However, unfortunately no matter how much human beings tried to deny it, every person had some kind of fault that underlied the masks that they wore when interacting with other people.

This person that was few metres away from me had put her mask off to reveal a hideous smile and some laughter to accompany it.

"Rika! Where are you~"

"Rika~ I know that you're here so you can come out now."

"Come on Rika!" She screamed.
