Cale alternated his gaze from her to the door, seeing it was closed he pondered.
'How did she get in here without the door opening'
The door and its hinges were all metal. Not only that, but the metal door is so low to the ground that it would undoubtedly scrape against the floor and make a sound.
Essentially making it impossible to intrude without a form warning.
[You are probably wondering where you are correct?]
Wrong, he was wondering about if a metal door could make the sound of creaking or scraping.
[Ah I heard you were mute]
Taking out something out of her bosom.
She began to write in something that looked like a notebook. Her smile though made her curiosity fade, almost as if she found something funny.
'What is she writing?'
Curiosity wanted to ask but it was also the thing that killed the cat sometimes.
[I will explain to you what had happened while you were unconscious]
Ears perked up like a drooping cat turned happy at those words.
[First of all, this place is detention]
Evident shock coursed through his features.
'What? why am I-'
[The reason for why you are here is simple]
She kept speaking, regardless of the student's shocked expression.
[You broke the rules]
"..?"
'Okay. What the hell is she-'
[Acts of vigilantism are strictly prohibited, this is why you were sent to detention and will stay there for 1 and a half months]
"..."
Everything paused, he wanted to refute what she said but.
'Technically, she isn't wrong....'
From a teacher's perspective what had been done was actually an act of vigilantism, though barely did it fit that description.
Poof
Something appeared out of thin air, It was books. Cale's books.
They fell onto the old desk, the invisible woman continued her rehearsed speech that seemed bored out of her mind.
[Those are your books, read them, every important thing in the book has been outlined and highlighted for you to understand more easily]
'That's surprising? they are making it easier for me to survive?'
The woman scoffed, dramatically shrugging her shoulders to the side.
[Of course, If you don't read them, no matter how easy we make it for you to understand It will all be meaningless if you don't open the book in the first place]
'Is she...making fun of me?'
[Well that is all, bye~ I hope you enjoy your solitary confinement~ Well... it isn't really one if you've got a neighbor, right?]
Her body carried itself to the metal door. The movement was smooth and devoid of any humbleness.
[Well, you might not even be capable of studying if you are only in pain, well I doubt anything serious will happen, the previous generation may have been bad but they weren't all terrible]
Once the monologue finished. She disappeared like mist, gone completely, not a trace of her remained in the classroom, a mouth couldn't even be opened to voice a question.
"How the hell am I supposed to survive here for 1 and a half month here?"
There wasn't even any food or water, it was impossible.
'Huh...?'
When speaking, a voice is usually expected to come out naturally.
'M-My voice'
Nothing came out of his mouth, something as simple as a voice should've come out but this time it couldn't come out.
Not a single word made itself uttered to the world whatsoever.
'H-How, no why can I not'
Cale panicked, palms already drenched in sweat, breathing turning ragged quickly, a loud thump In his head rang and sang an encore.
It was his heart and it was beating so fast and so loud that it drowned out any other sound that could be heard, if there even was any.
He stood up, legs weak, but nonetheless forced himself to move towards the door.
The handle was gripped like how a handlebar would be on a bike and pushed.
"Hmp!"
Nothing, attempts to pulling it were made but was only met with the same result.
"Ha.. Ha.. Ha.."
A lot of time was spent trying to pry open the door with various other methods like kicking, throwing a desk at it and all sorts of other ways before giving up.
'What Is this door made of!'
A mouth opened, trying to instinctively talk but only a weak squeal came out of the sound-restricted mouth.
He stared at the door once more, took a few rushed steps back, then sprinted and-
Crash!
Crashed and threw his body at the door like a siege weapon.
The effort was met with a fall down at the ground and the door sat tall and mighty while spiritually mocking at the failures of escape made by a single man.
It hadn't even bent slightly.
'Well if throwing a desk or kicking it didn't work. It wouldn't have made any sense If the door suddenly broke simply because a body was thrown at it'
He got up to his feet, patting down all the dust accumulated on his clothes and then laying eyes at the only window in this room.
Standing before the window of possible escape and looking at the ground.
"..."
'Just...where in the world did they shove me in exactly?'
Nothing could seen below, a void was all that could be distinctively seen. However when looking up.
A clear bright sky and a bright sun met his vision, the difference between the two was clear.
Cale's hands moved and tried to open the window.
It also wouldn't budge at all.
This place was completely and utterly sealed in, with no one capable of leaving or entering.
It felt like being a caged animal, stripped of any freedom and forced to do one thing.
Eyes lock onto the only task that could be done, which also rested neatly on the desk.
'I should at least study for a few hours, right?'
He made his way back and sat down at the old-worn out desk, taking the opportunity to study with no distractions since he knew very a chance like this wouldn't appear again.
