LOUIS' POV

"We have four things to take care of, that's why we need all hands. The principal, Mrs. Jane, Mr. Jake and the exam department. I will take care of everything we need and you'd be prepared a day before the big prank"

"So... what role are we playing?" Glen asked, he had caramel skin and black curly hair, sitting next to him were Han, Chan and Max.

Han and Chan had grey hair color, their natural black hair color could be seen at the base of their scalp, they had paler skin color and lean muscles. They are often mistaken for each other even though they are not related. Max had an athletic body and his hair color was dirty blonde.

Jack explained "since we are already divided, first Robin's team, gore, would make Mrs. Jane stick around for some hours when she's busy Glen's team, the pirate eye would sneak out to 'redecorate' the principal's car while red demons, Tommy's team job is to take Mr. Jake 'out of the picture' then my team, Tri-X, will take the exam department"

The plan will clash with the second test. It's perfect to postpone tests, prank annoying teachers and still have fun. I loved every bit of it. Everyone is old in this game and we were confident we'd pull this off.

It was Friday, the last class before sports, the day of the prank. Lucky we all had Mathematics class, red demons and team gore were already seated close to the big window, Tri-X next to the door, then the pirate eye were comfortably seated and scattered around the class to avoid anything suspicious.

Jack texted the other two groups to be alert and move quickly. Fiona was speaking to me but I did not hear her, I had to ignore her or else this plan might fail.

I half-smiled when Mr. Jake walked past our classroom, he must have received the little note from red demons which deceitfully gave him the impression that Miss. Zoe was calling him to the coconut tree in the backyard where they occasionally meet.

"Do you have any questions?" Mrs. Jane's voice pulled me out of my thoughts. She sat down with a sigh of relief after standing for a long time.

"Mrs. Jane, I don't understand this question in my textbook" Robin was already seated in front, he held the book with both hands facing it to her.

She squinted, stretching her neck forward. Eventually, she tried to raise her hand but she couldn't.

"W-what is this?" her eyes widened as she made attempt to stand up but was stuck in her chair

"...who did this!" her face was already puffed and fuming red. The class was engulfed with laughter from the students.

When she was distracted red demons dived out of the window then team gore followed, Jack signaled me and Dylan, we escaped undetected then went straight to the exam department.

We masked our faces and protected our fingerprints with the gloves Jack brought, the two teams outside were prepared too, we had everything planned perfectly.

Dylan brought out a small laptop from his bag and began to tap vigorously.

"Cameras disabled" he said shortly and we walked in.

"Dylan, can you watch the door this time? I want to do some damage today" my smile muffled a chuckle, he returned the smile and nodded.

It was amusing to destroy the printed papers with the shredding machine while Jack handled the screws of the printers.

"We better make it to class before sports" Dylan said with his eyes still on the lookout.

In a short period, we sent a message to the rest about sports being in five minutes and hurried back to class. It was difficult for the other teams to sneak back to class but they did barely before we heard the bell.

I sighed in relief "we did it"

The others beamed with smiles and laughter and I couldn't help but get involved.

As we jogged behind Mr. David, our sports teacher round the soccer field, we stayed close to each other as Tommy narrated how they took out Mr. Jake with a punch before he could scream and tied him up next to the coconut tree.

"I hope you didn't kill him? We're not prepared for a murder case" I searched his eyes for any trace of dishonesty

"I did my best," he said with a shrug.

Glen also narrated how they repainted the principal's car with multi-colors and dumped a carton of spiders. I grinned as I imagined her reaction when she saw the little present.

On Monday our history teacher Mrs. Eva announced that the test would be in two weeks because the principal, Mrs. Jane and Mr. Jake, are in the hospital and the exam department has been destroyed worse than before.

I never thought a day would come when Mrs. Jane wouldn't come to class.

We had the best Maths class ever, we chatted and played until it was over. After school, we went to celebrate our victory of pulling off the best prank.

FIONA's POV

Three days after the shocking announcement I was standing close to my locker when I heard some girls gossiping from afar in low tones but I heard them very clearly like they were next to me.

"Have you heard rumors about the pranksters?" one of them asked

"Oh yeah they said it was the ripper squad" a strange voice spoke

"The ripper squad!" I heard different high-pitched voices squealing and they began to whisper again after drawing a lot of attention.

"Uhmm... If I may ask, what is the ripper squad?" This girl's question led to a uniform gasp.

"The ripper squad haven't you heard of the baddest crew?" a new voice asked

Later I heard a sigh "they were fourteenth but later broke up into four cliques We have Tommy, Caleb and Hugo as red demons, Mark, Robin, William and Tony as pirate eye, Han, Chan, Glen and Max as gore then Dylan, Louis and Jack as Tri-X"

"Louis" was the only word my brain repeated and I waved off the thought to listen.

"The rumors about them being pranksters are everywhere" the narrator added.

"How are you sure all these stories are not false?" the girl who asked the question said

"Ripper squad members have a skeletal claw tattooed on their back. If you have the opportunity to date any just confirm it okay? And don't forget to tell us everything" the narrator chuckled and they changed the topic.

I was busy thinking about what I just heard, now that I remember, Louis was acting strange that Friday, he didn't bother me and ignored me throughout which I'm still mad about.

I just wondered if what they said about the prank, him being in a gang and having a back tattoo was true. I couldn't stop thinking about how I would confirm all these and why I was so concerned.

Soon we got back to complete the second half of the day. I hated the fact that I would be seeing Louis in every class and he wouldn't shut up for a second. He was still begging me not to be mad at him and said it was an emergency.

"What type of emergency?" I turned to him, my ears anticipating his answer.

"I can't tell you, it's personal" he darted his eyes knowing I was not convinced by his reply.
