Despair

Taco placing his hand right next to the flipped body, Trembling and cowering before the body he stands by, The first time in his life has he felt this much fear, The fear of death.

A fellow classmate which he has spent time with, Dark brown hair and pale skin, Face as dead as a husk, It was grimm, The victim of bullying and harassment from Miru’s gang has once again been a victim of a massacre.

Water flowing through his face, He stands there motionless, the water dripping off his face into the sand, He couldn’t describe his feelings if even with a whole day to so, Seeing how someone or something massacred this weak and feeble bodied boy makes him devastated, Left-right left-right, Studying his surroundings hoping for a little light of hope to find out what has happened. A few feet away there was an object and without a doubt something which would save him from the current despair he faces.

Walking towards the object, trailing a path of steps in the sand, The moonlight softly illuminating it, Kneeling down hoping it was a clue, It was Grimm’s novel.

“Grimm…”

“Why, Why did you have to die…”

“We should’ve all lived together, We shouldn’t even…”

That moment Taco realised,

“It was my fault… Im the reason you aren’t alive, it's all my fault, I clicked the link and got us here”

Tears falling down like a waterfall which never seem to end despite him trying to act tough and hide the emotion.

Conflicting on what he has unknowingly caused until it's too late leaves him shattered. At this moment he will change the fate of everyone, A simple promise to boost back his mental state.

“Grimm I promise… I promise to keep everyone alive the good or bad, The cruel and weak, I alone I will make up for the pain I caused you and make sure you don't die in vain”

Determined to make Grimm’s death and his misfortune valuable he will become the hero…

Making a tombstone for Grimm and burying his remaining body underneath the embrace of sand, gently and firmly sticking his novel onto the top of the tomb to honour his passion of reading novels, He decides it’s about time to go back and tell everyone of what has occurred, A honk being heard by Taco, Knowing that the football team is supposed to ring one every hour he gets a glimmer of hope to start heading back and hopefully eat, rest and explore more tomorrow.

Heading towards the loud sound in the distance, Taco slipped, He looks back on what is going on behind the spot he fell from, Only to realise that it wasn’t nature but rather a trap made of string wrapping around trees, In a mere second his instincts kick in and make him start sprinting has far he can, not knowing who or what placed the trap laid before him, Focused like a hawk looking for prey despite being the other way around, Dropping the belongings he had, His most important loss being the phone , Taco desperately trying to figure out an escape from what seems to be impending doom to no avail,

“Huh”

Absolutely shocking expression in his eyes, frozen from fear once again, This place not giving him a time to rest,In a second there was what seemed not one or two, not even three, A whole group of people hidden by the midnight, dark silhouettes that only stroked fear into him.

…

Morning

…

The football team waking up early to the sound of birds chirping and the sun blinding them with its rays, Their shacks proved to be somewhat useful against rain as only one of the five shacks made flooded last night, Saber still unable to operate at full efficiency despite that he's making steady progress recovering himself from the poisonous berry, There next plan of action to make a farm around their closure to have animals to get feed and make use of their skin for clothes and blankets of somesort, This is a team of skilled people and they seem to be enjoying every second on this vacation.

“Aye guys you know, how about we just kill the animals right off the start instead of making this dumbass closure, I'm sick of digging hole you know” - Manu

“If maybe you thought as hard you digged than you would’ve realised that we will somehow manage to breed these creatures into multiply and long lasting food supply” - Ardit

“Even if we do all of that how do you intend to make them breed or even raise them, You have no knowledge on how to do any of that” -rk

“That’s why we're doing labour and once we locate the three genius masterminds they should be able to take care of that stuff themselves, Why do you think I planned so many houses out?” -Ardit

Both Manu and rk realsied the true intentions of his plan and are fascinated by the idea.

“This is why your the captain” - Manu

They all have a laugh about it and continue working, That is until A rustling of some sort is heard around them, Miru and her squad arrive to the teams enclosure in a rather aggressive manner, Without a second to spare the three players grab their wooden spears and get into a triangle formation to cover all sides, Miru stepping forward to talk to them.

“Hey there big guys, No need for the aggressive approach were just here to make a proposal”

The Miru gang shows they aren’t armed in any way, The players drop their spears to the side of each other.

“What is it?” -Ardit

“We go find the other classmates that haven’t been seen yet”

“Let us think”- Ardit

“Right now there is nine of us here, You, Me, Saber, Kevin, Khay, Yui, Jaz, Manu, Miru” - rk

“Us working together would be of benefit actually, We could finish this closure and have an easier time in general, There is four missing, Vash, Yaqaen, Zeph and poor Grimm somewhere alone im guessing, We seen Taco but its worrying he hasn’t come back despite us using the horn every hour ” - Ardit

Miru stands there already knowing their answer despite them still thinking to figure it out.

“We will work together until all of them are found” - Ardit

“Sounds fair to me” - Miru

This new coalition of groups formed into a temporary alliance to find or rescue the remaining people on the island, Their five targets scattered around the island, They alone will rescue them, This isn’t just all fun and games, This a rivalry on who will become the superior group. Their journey starts on the shore of the island.
