As for the housing system, there were four. 


 Zeta the zealous, Beta the brave, Iota the Intelligent, and Kappa the kind. 


On the first day of the first years, there would always be a sorting ceremony. It takes a whole day to sort a student. 


It would start with a simple interview, follow by multiple exams. At noon, there would be a physical exam and right after that, there would be a simulation exam too. Students would have to stay with their houses during the first two years unless they are part of the top 5, otherwise known as the executive committee of the houses. 


On the night of the first day, the sorting ceremony would finally end. Rules would be run over by the Principle, Madam La Quina. She would always emphasize on the three golden rules. 


One - killing is prohibited.

As if anyone would dare to kill in a school but it was still one of the golden rules.


Two - leaving the island is prohibited.

Another questionable rule, how would anyone try to escape this school? It was a school surrounded by water.


Three - suicide results in the death of their loved ones.

As if inflicting death on yourself was not torture enough, the death of your family and close ones are also involved.


I can still remember having shivers down my spine, the first time that I heard all those rules. 


The university was filled with the filthiest and richest of kids, they got away with anything, they would probably get away with murder if it was allowed.  


I vividly recalled being ordered around by the third year's when I first started there. 


It was pathetic, I  always thought they were in no position to order me around since their parents were the ones working for mine. Unfortunately, the system of the school allowed them to and I had no choice but to follow. The first year in the school is always the hardest since these students are normally last in the caste system. 


Of course, when I finally reached the second year, the tables turned because I made my way up and finally became an executive committee of the house. 


My only goal was to change our house system, it wasn't easy, but I still was able to to it. 


Of course, changing the system of my house was not the only thing I messed up with, I managed to mess up the school system as well; which is probably why it was messing up with me now too. 


CLICK.


I heard the door of the basement unlock which shook me back to reality. 


I scanned the basement and calculated all my choices in order to escape. I heaved a sigh before I finalized my plan. I was still trembling, afraid, but I managed to stand up and take an old pipe that was on the floor. 


I positioned myself behind the door, ready to hit whoever enters.  


Scion University was the one who placed me in this position but they were also the ones who turned me into who I was today; someone smart, wise, and resilient.


If I was going to be murdered tonight, I wasn't going down without a fight. 


My name is Athena Calleen Vandia and I used to be the President of the House of Iota.
