"You are a fool "!
"You are mad "!
"I said it damn you, f**k that s**t "!
"Enough of this rubbish "! Mr Kings shouted from the door walking inside the class as everyone became silent like vampires waiting to strike, the deadly look Mike was giving John was nothing to write home about as the ping lecturer walked into tvier middle standing in between them like a referee who is about to commence a wrestling match.
"Stop all this silly arguments young boys, just for peace to reign go and carry out the research on the laboratory, not to argue what is not " he said and walked to the board as everyone attention drifted back to the young lecturer who was just like John Cena. Mr kings is an average man, who doesn't take things serious but he hates arguments, his glasses could be seen in his eyes while his gap teeth kept making the whole world to smile at him just to see him smile back for them to have a clear view of the gap teeth.
His long sleeve white shirt could be seen so plain and stainless as he stood facing the board. With his oval face he began writing on the board as the serous students began taking the real points while the unserious ones kept making noises.

Rich sit at the far end of the class paying attention to everything Mr Kings said just to get some important points jn there, Tera smiled at him while he smiled back showing his cute face and then he frowned instantly looking at the board again.

The lecture finally ended while the rest of the students who were hungry went out for break to grab some things, the rest who had nothing doing relaxed reading their books.
"Hey Rich " Tera called walking up to him and then curdle her hands around his neck smiling while her returned the smile
"How was the lecture "? Rich asked Tera who stopped, looking at him seriously
"It was awesome, how did you see it "?
"Cool though " he replied and paused, sighting John from a distance standing under a shade tree like a bird taking refuge he walked up to him while Tera followed from behind.
"Hey man Whatsup man " he asked but seeing how dull and weak John was, he decided to push forward
"Talk to me man, what's bothering you "? Rich asked, many people were passing, while others standing were having conversations behind.
"I'm not cool with Mike action, he's taking things too far, it seems he's seeing the future " John said bitterly
"You mean Mike can predict what will happen in the future "? He asked and John nodded his head in agreement leaving Rich in a confused state, while Tera watched the both of them.
******
"Yeah man I'm cool, see you tomorrow " Mike said on phone and ended the call
"Hi Mike " Richard called from behind
"Whatsup man, I've not seen you since morning " he pushed forward
"I'm around just busy as usual " he added
"Let's proceed to the lecture hall, it's almost time " Mike added as they both walked to the lecture hall.
*****
Graceland University is known as the best in town around the locality, just as Mike and the rest were attending it, so we're many parents sending their children each passing day to the school due to its firm and popularity.

The evening breeze began blowing as Rich took a cab home, relaxing and nodding his head like lucky dube to the sound of the musci that was playing In the cab, soon he came down, paid the man and then head straight to the house.
The house was just normal as usual which he decided to visit the parents for the weekend.
"Hello anyone home "? Richard shouted opening the door as his voice kept making repeatation of what he said.
"Oh Richard is here " little junior shouted running to him as he carried him up and then lift him up high on air then dropped him down smiling.
My little superman how are you doing "? He asked while junior smiled
"I'm good man" he replied giving him a light punch on the shoulder and then Richard walked hand in hand to where the old man sat with the wife watching TV.
"Mom, dad good evening "he greeted sitting next to the mom and pecked her on the forehead.
"Welcome back son, how's school "? The mother asked
"Fine as usual but full of stress " he replied
"That's school for you "she said
"Mom, dad is looking more fresh and young, are you still breastfeeding him "? He joked as the family burst out laughing while junior smiled at them.
"I don't know who spoiled you son, you need to be given a new brain " the father said as they end up laughing too. Rich walked up to his room after a nice time with the parents heading to the room, th3 thought of Mike seeing what will happen in the future flew back into his memory as he sat down on the bed.

The family had a good meal together as they all retired to bed biding everyone goodnight including junior who wanted to sleep with Richard on his room but the parents insisted saying Richard needs more rest which he agreed and then went to his room.
The night was dark as usual as the crickets gave out their scary sounds and other aquatic animals, the streets was dark while some areas was bright.
Richard found himself standing by the roadside while vehicles kept passing in speed, he glanced at his wrist watch to see the time as 1:15pm.
Soon the cloud changed instantly like the rapture is near, the clouds made scary noise, darkness took over instantly, people began screaming, shouting, running helter shelter looking for help, every light ceased, electric bulb stopped giving light while cars headlight ceased too. The unexpected incident got many crying while the rest shouting, noise and cry of people were heard, deadly souls appeared on the road looking like zombies attacking people killing, Richard was so terrified as he began running while other deadly souls ran after him, he kept running and then he stumbled and then fell down panting while the souls stopped before him and bringing out their claws just in point of striking Richard to dead as he kept striking, a brighr light shone on Richard face as the souls adjusted backwards in fear and then screamed before disappearing. A small still voice came out from the light.
"The future in your hands Richard, save the world, save humanity, save mankind, it's real, it's happening soon be prepared for this, it's not gonna end well " the voice said and then the light disappeared as the sun shown again.
Richard screamed jn fesr and woke up sweating profusely like one who escaped dead and truly he escaped death. The time was 1:54am. Just then a voice came out again
"Be prepared Richard "!!!!the voice said and echoed in the room while Richard was wondering if he's going mad
"Nooooooooooooo"hw shouted in fear as the parents arrived his room.
