PROJECT VOID. (Based on the mobile game)

IN THE BEGINNING (III)

His gaze was cold almost as if he was telling me 'Now's not a good time or anytime soon'.
I didn't know if I regretted making the first move first, kept cursing myself in my head, but then he kept his phone in his pocket almost as if he realized I could read his expression .
"Sorry for the pause, hi, I'm Nicholas Black" he gave a little smile and shook my hand.
His hands were warmer than everyone else I had spoken to today, strange but wait did he say Black?

I looked back at Damian and Tiffany and Damian gave me a smile "Yup , that depressed bloodsucking vampire is my brother" he chuckled.
Only then did I realize that he had been slightly holding onto Tiffany's pinkie as they talked.
I smiled at her and she looked away feeling embarrassed.

I looked back at Nicholas who was shooting daggers Damian's way, I giggled at their little bond.
It was cute , but Nicholas looked back at me .
"Like your brown curls, really suit you" he tangled a lock of my curls in his fingers, he looked at my hair and then back at me and smiled
"I've got something to do but I'll see you guys later? Also , sorry Tiffany, right? it's nice to meet you but I've gotta run, catch you guys later " he smiled waving at us as he walked towards a building we hadn't checked out yet.

I couldn't help but smile at the two great brothers I had just met, I mean yeah Nicholas is strangely cold but still has manners and Damian is just, how'd my mom say it?.. ah! A bundle of joy.

I turned back to look at Damian and Tiffany holding hands fully now, couldn't help but smirk.
"How'd it go Angie? He give you a reason to hate the whole male Population too?" He smiled.
"What're you talking about? He's not bad" I shrugged." More importantly you guys need to get a room"signaling to their hands.

Damian looked at me with wide eyes, "he's not bad?! Didn't give you an attitude or anything?" She questioned in shock.
"He's a bit reserved but still has manners " I said tilting my head in confusion at his amazement.

"From the first day I met that dude he has never paid any attention to girls, especially when I try to introduce him to some.
He always says I won't get it or they're really distracting and he needs to focus ." He explained
" I never really got it but now all of a sudden he decides to give a damn?... And when I thought I'd seen everything he could possibly pull, man" he laughed.
" Maybe I'll take up that offer on the room thing, if Tiffany's ok with it " he shuts his eyes in hopes to get an answer.
This boy really is cute.

"Haha, I'll think about it " she laughed turning a bright shade of pink.
"Damian, I'm sorry...I ..I don't wanna be rude but.." I started "we don't look alike?" He cut me off.
"Y-yeah, I'm sorry-" I started again. "Haha it's fine, I get that a lot, we both do, Nicholas is from a different mother...his mother passed away about 8years ago and my father and mother adopted him because he was a bright kid, heck he'd even help me at times and let's all be honest..... he's a snack" he rose his left hand up in his defense while shrugging.

Tiffany and I laughed, "You're definitely a good brother" Tiffany smiled at him.
" You think so ? " He came closer to her and looked in her eyes and she looked up at him. He kissed her forehead and whispered something in her ear.

"NoooooOoO" I whined covering my eyes, "I'm not old enough for PDA Tiff , you know this" I laughed.
"Oh hush, I can put in a good word for you with Nicholas" he winked at me.
"Oh please, give it a rest will ya?" I looked away.
"Heyyyyyyy~ that's not a no~"
He chuckled and Tiffany laughed.

As we were talking I heard a voice call out , part of me regretting I know who it is.
"Angieeeeeee!" Alyssa called out as all our heads turned to her direction.
She was coming our way and behind her was the guy I met at the corridor before the orientation.
"Hey Alyssa, good to see you" I said in a slight bored tone.
"Good to see you, munchy, now who's your friend?" She asked signaling me to introduce her.
" Oh um guys this is Alyssa Milano and Alyssa these are Tiffany Adams and Damian Black" I said pointing to clarify.

"Nice to meet you tiff dear, and helloooo Mr. Black she came closer placing her hand on his shoulder.
Tiff looked unsettled at that but Damian was quick to push her hand aside.
"Pleased , to meet you Miss. Milano but I'm not a very handsy person" he smiled at her.
" Well you don't have a problem holding Miss Adams'?" She questioned eyeing their hands.
"Wellllll, she's an exception" he winked at Tiff, Alyssa looking very annoyed.

"Hey delusional!" The guy I met at the corridor called to me.
"Hey shriveled dick! I politely called him.
" Still as feisty as ever I see, it's Jake, Jake Thompson." He smirked at me. As hard as it is to admit he was fine and good at being fine.

"Whatever you say" I rolled my eyes. "Why are you even here?" I asked rather rude.
"Blondy over here met me and wanted me to meet her 'friend' she said" he mimicked her.
"I'm glad I did tho" he smirked.

"Don't make me wanna wipe that smug look of your face Mr. Prince Charming" I was pissed now.
"I think I'd actually like that , show me~" he teased and came closer. He annoyed me to bits, I hate him....So why is this making me feel good?! I'm definitely missing a damn screw up there.
The fuck's going on?

We all stopped everything we were doing, me, Tiffany, Damian, Alyssa and Jake.
"Y'all hear that right?" Alyssa asked, we started to come together from where we were standing."Loud and clear" Damian replied holding Tiffany close.
"Damn .. thought I'd realize something like this sooner, really loosin my touch" Jake chuckled.
"Yh .  .  . This place was full of students before, where is everyone?" I asked.
"Everyone was talking and chatting like 5 seconds ago? It's not possible for everyone to up and disappear like that." Tiffany explained.
"That's just super natural " Alyssa pouted.

"DAMIAN! YOU GUYS!!, GET OUT OF THERE!" Nicholas shouted.
"Hey, isn't that Nicholas?" I asked Damian. "Yh! It is!, Bro?!" He shouted back.
Before we knew what was happening it all turned green, the sky, ground...it was all a flat colour of green.
It was almost like we were in a green box.
Then, the air smelt different,it was harsh maybe? It had the properties of a gas I had read about before, I was getting dizzy but wait what is this?
Chloroform?!

SHIT! SHIT! SHIT!
"Don't breathe in the air!" I shouted but it was too late ...

Everyone was knocked out cold.
The world spun fast, I could feel myself losing my grip on reality.
I tried to stay up , the aerosol taking effect fast made me dizzy as hell , I really tried but when it all turned black, I knew I was out till this wore off..
