Vengeance University: Death Bat Heaven, Hater Hell

As the party bus styled school bus, came for a sudden stop, Kevin and Britney couldn’t believe their eyes. The private university seemed like a gothic styled palace. The dimension of the place could fit several thousands and if not, about a million or so people.

The place had gargoyles, death bat statues all over the place. The school seemed different from any other college and university, but it was in a good way.

After Britney and Kevin have gone their separate ways to their dorm rooms, Kevin began to snoop around the University. He had sensed something wrong with this place. He knew all of this seemed too good to be true.

Kevin hated how the University looked, he hated how there seemed to be a lot of people in the school wore similar clothing styles. He hated how the school seemed right out of some medieval horror film. Kevin believed the school seemed more like a vampire mansion and werewolves, hiding off to hunt their prey.

The only reason he decided to tag along was just so he could’ve shut his girlfriend up about going to the same university together. He also hated his girlfriend’s music taste, she loves listening to mostly rock and metal. Everyone in the university seemed to like that type of music as well by just looking at their clothing styles. Skulls seemed to be very popular in this skull everyone seemed to have that sort of merchandise.

Kevin snuck into an office then looked around. He went straight towards the desk and spotted an old brown book that seemed to bring into his interest. On the cover, there was an imprint of a death bat. His finger traced the image of the creature and decides to open the book. As he flipped through the ancient like pages, the writings and images began to fade right before his eyes.

Kevin quickly dropped the book and watched it land back down on the desk. He shook off on what he’s seen and flipped through the pages on the book once again to confirm what he saw, but there was nothing there, everything was blank.

He placed the book right where he found it and looked out the window. He took few steps closer to the window, seeing a dead graveyard out the window. He tries fitting in the pieces but couldn’t figure out what was a graveyard doing at a school.

“May I help you with something?” Kevin jumped back and saw a man with long curly hair and brown eyes standing right in front of him.

Kevin took heavy breathes and glanced at the window once again. The view of the graveyard was gone and there was nothing more but trees and grass. Kevin rubbed his eyes and blinked a couple of times to adjust his vision but still, the view of the boneyard was gone.

“No... No... I was just lost.” Kevin lied and shook his head.

“Well if there’s anything, feel free to stop by and ask.” The man replies. “I’m Professor Ilejay.” He offered his hand to Kevin but he rejected it.

“Yeah… sure…” Kevin walked past the Professor, exiting the office. Kevin knew that there was definitely wrong with the place. He didn’t know what was going on or what the staffs are up to, but he’s going to find out.

As the professor watched Kevin walking out the door, he picked up the book from his desk and flipped through the pages, seeing the wring and the images reappear on the pages. He shut the book and set it down to stare at the view of the necropolis and the dead trees as an evil smirk
appeared on his face.

He pulled out his phone and dialed the school president. “It’s time.”

In the meantime, Britney walked the school grounds, Hearing her name getting called in a whisper. The voice seemed unrecognized and yet so strange. She followed the sound of the soft whispers.

She ended up in a conference room where there was a giant painting of a man with blue eyes, wearing a million dollar suit and a handcuff tattoo on his neck. “Britney.” The whispered continued.

Britney stepped closer to the painting, about to place a hand on it before a man stepped into the room and the whispers had vanished, breaking free from her compulsion.

She turned at the green eyed man, a bit startled. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to alarm you. I’m Mr. Baker, the school’s president.”

“I’m Britney, college freshman.” she introduced herself.

“I know who you are, my vice president of the school had mentioned you and your boyfriend would come.” Baker turned his back on Britney to see a death bat land on top of the late Jame’s Sullivan’s tomb stone. “Perhaps you have met him, he was the one with dark shady aviators and a dark car with school flags hanging in each corner.”

Britney stepped by the man’s side and stared at the same thing he was staring. Nothing seemed abnormal to her, there was something that was telling her not to feel afraid and no need to question the gothic like school.

“He was a strange man, but though he was a stranger, I sensed no danger. My boyfriend on the other hand, didn’t think it was such a great idea to come, he thinks it’s strange. And you know what I think? I never believed a place like this has existed. I’m very much enjoying it so far. It’s different from any other place and dark... I like it.” Britney smiled.

The school president softly smiled at her comment. “Those who are accepted, always seemed to enjoy this place. Even if they see strange things, they still seemed to love it and accepted it.” The man faced Britney. “But your purpose to this academy is much different; you have a purpose to be here.”

Britney seemed puzzled to his comment. She couldn’t understand what her main purpose could be in the academy. “Then what is my purpose?”

The man’s phone began to ring. “I better go answer this, we’ll resume our conversation tomorrow, but for now, you should get some rest.

Britney nodded without any further questions and departed away from the conference room, leaving the man to answer his call.
