《New Game+》Chapter Six: A New Game +
Advertisement
Seeker paced towards his classroom. Everyone passed by Seeker not paying heed to this familiar figure. Seeker was a regular student who studied, laughed, played hooky at times, tried and failed at flirting with the hottest girls in school.
No known achievements, no great contributions to society, not even a name on the school papers for any notable accomplishments and comical adventures. He didn’t even join any clubs but would head home immediately or hang out with his dear friends.
The average of the average. That was Seeker Carlean.
“Seek! You alright? What happened?” Lynd Peters ran towards Seeker. He was a tall tanned young man with jet black hair. His head was a near perfect circular shape and adding to his innocent look, one would mistake him to be related to troll. His tall and huge frame adding to his clumsy and slightly awkward movements made his worried dash a comical scene.
“I’m fine. Sheesh. Don’t do that in public! It’s really embarrassing!” Seeker laughed but his heart warmed up seeing this concerned giant.
“Well, you should have seen yourself! You look like one of those demons-possessed people in the movies! Screaming so loud and your eyes were almost popping out!” As Lynd approached, Seeker could see the tears in his eyes.
“I’m alright now.” Seeker comforted.
“You really had me worried there Seek. You were screaming some weird stuff the other day we thought you really lost it!” Lynd walked at Seeker’s pace slowly adjusting his long steps.
“Really? Couldn’t remember much of what I was shouting. I just remembered the pain.” Seeker gave a casual smile.
“Well, I couldn’t remember all of it. I was too busy holding you down and screaming as well!” Lynd laughed.
“But from what I heard after you were sent to the hospital, you were screaming strange things.”
The pair walked onwards towards the room. Lynd continued to bombard Seeker with questions and Seeker kept repeating the fact that he remembered nothing. As they entered, the group was immediately met with applause. There gathered in the room were Seeker’s classmates.

The senior class that Seeker was assigned was not a high ranking class. Their school grouped students according to their academic performances and grades per year level. Though Seeker’s class weren’t as dreadful as the “Regulars” ranked classes, the “Rising” rank was not as prestigious as the “Royal” rank.
Devoid of extreme talents and extreme dullness, life was carefree and easy in the Rising rank. Students of this class have no outlying students who were smart and so dull. Everyone accepted their grades and would always perform for the sake of passing. From school plays, performances, and studies, their culture was a very happy-go-lucky group.
“Congratulations on recovering Seek!” Meryl clapped as she paced towards Seeker. Meryl’s long braided hair swung as she walked towards and gave Seeker a meaningful hugged. After which she began to scan him trying to find any defects or surgical scars. Meryl was a bright girl with an innocent smile. She had a well-rounded face and white skin. She smiled as she looked with worried eyes to her dear friend.
“I’m fine Meryl.” Seeker playfully patted her braided head.
“Fine? Some of us thought you were possessed by a demon! You started screaming and flailing and even shouted something about being on fire! Was a demon trying to drag you to hell?” Meryl grumpily argued.
Seeker laughed.
“No such incident! I promise you. Anyways I’m glad I’m back with you guys.” Seeker stared dearly at his two friends. Lynd and Meryl were his two best friends. Lynd was his awkward compatriot who would always be there no matter what and Meryl his beloved little-older sister who would berate them of their stupidity but always join in to either help them get out of trouble and occasionally put them into deeper trouble.
The class was now bombarding Seeker with many questions. Seeker casually addressed all concerns from his classmates. As he talked with them, tears would unexpectedly gather in his eyes. Meryl stared at Lynd in the wonder of what was happening. Seeker later sat down at his seat as the bell rung. Meryl and Lynd sat next to Seeker. As the teacher went in, life in the Rising 3-B class began.

The class paid the usual noncommittal attitude it had. Seeker was however still lost in thoughts.
“I can’t believe that I would be here once more.” The emotions started surging and Seeker’s eyes were tearing up once more. He confirmed his existence, his memory and other unbelievable things last night. He isn’t dreaming. He isn’t dead. He is alive. Back to his Junior Years at the West Phil-Pangea High.
The emotions that he felt was one of both joy and relief. He could be with his friends, talk with his parents and enjoy the fact that the remaining three-fourths of the Earth is habitable and not a heaping wasteland or a metal graveyard.
It felt like an impossible dream.
“Seek?” Meryl called out.
“Hmm?”
“You Ok? Are you… crying?” Meryl noticed the teary-eyed Seeker.
“I’m ok Meryl. It’s just that ever since the attack my heads been throbbing a bit every now and then.”
“Oh my! You sure it’s alright to go to school? What if the attack happens again?”
Lynd gave an alarmed stare at Meryl and Seeker.
“Mr. Carlean!” The teacher suddenly barked.
Ms. Cipril called out. Alean Cipril was fiery hot, and the white woman who despite her very alluring beauty, was still single. Her strict military upbringing paired with the fact that her father takes her wherever he is assigned made Alean’s career a very diverse one.
“It is not an excuse for you to idle around in my class even if you had a little headache episode. If you wish to fake another panic attack do so in another class because if you do it again, I will throw you out!”
The class was silent. Even though Meryl and Lynd wanted to pound this general’s daughters with smart rebuttals, they knew not to awaken this beast.
Seeker merely stared at the teacher. His eyes could not hide the immense hatred he felt towards this wretched beast clothe in womanly splendor. Seeker, however, chose to give a wry smile and nodded to the teacher.
Alean went back to her lessons.
“Forget about her Zeek!” Lynd whispered.
“Wanna go to my place later? Guess what? I booked an order for our favorite game and I finally got it! The sequel to Piercing: Edge! Later we will be in the action-packed the world of Piercing: Bullet! My game data from Edge is ready to go! I just can’t wait to play a New Game+ on Bullet! Depending on your completion rate to the previous game, you would be rewarded with several unlocked skills and even ammunition! This game, we already know what not to waste and what to prepare for. Not to mention, if we managed to complete several secret tasks from Piercing: Edge, we can meet secret characters who will help us with more stuff!”
“A new game plus huh?” Seeker smiled.
“I guess this is what it is. This should make the game easier and possibly a hundred times harder.”
“What?” Lynd was lost in Seeker’s response.
“As you said, Lynd. We have more unlocked skills than our first game, we have more ammunition, a lot of time for preparations and even secret characters. I'm excited too. Let’s play it.” Seeker’s smile grew bigger.
“The New Game+.”

I beg to differ that.", I sassed and got out of his grip ready to move out of the room when he pulled me by my elbow and the next second I was pushed on the visitor's chair.He trapped me completely by keeping his palms on the arms of the chair. "I tried to tell you patiently.", I scoffed at his words. Patience and he don't go in a single sentence. He gripped my chin making me look into his eyes."Now listen carefully Miss, I want you for my niece as her babysitter. Tell me how much you'll take and we can seal the deal."This time it was me who blinked once, twice and thrice."But I don't want to work for you." See the reason was absolutely clear. I liked the kid since the moment I met her but I hated this man from the moment I gazed into his eyes. "How much?"I frowned."You really think your money can make everyone dance on your tips?""1200 dollars a week."I rolled my eyes making him lean towards me." 1500?""Make it 15000 and still I won't work for you.", I retorted and pushed him. I walked to the door and gave him one glance."Next time when you talk to me, make sure you keep all your richness aside. That's one thing that I never want to see you again, you self-centred CEO.""We shall see."...Brave but lonely.Passionate but sensitive.That's Arielle Summers.
