The "Perfect" School

don't worry guys you'll fit in vine our mom said has she dropped us off in front of the school my younger brother lucas and i looked at each other with a doubtful look we waved goodbye are you ready i asked he nodded and i draped my arms casually over his shoulder as we walked through the gates of our new school together hi my name is noah don't just watch the video like it and subscribe to our channel for the best videos oh and don't forget to tap that notification bell as i sat in my first class i could not help but notice how clean everything was nothing was out of place all the tables and chairs were perfectly aligned even the pencils on the teachers tables were the same size and in a straight line i watched as children entered the class sat quietly and waited for the teacher the bell rang and the teacher entered the classroom she called the role introduced me to the class and proceeded with the day's lesson for every single question that was asked all the children raised their hands in an orderly fashion to answer children didn't talk to their friends or laugh while the teacher was talking this happened in every single class even walking through the halls and going from class to class the students made lines and the hallway was quiet way too quiet for my liking i felt as though i was in a horror movie and at any point in time something would jump out and snatch me away i was surprised by two things when i walked into the cafeteria number one that the kids weren't actually talking to each other and number two there weren't any cafeteria attendants each student was waiting patiently in line and dished out their own portions i spotted my brother sitting at a table alone i sat in the chair next to him and pulled out the sandwich that i brought from home have you noticed anything freakishly weird about this school i asked as i bit into my sandwich other than how clean and quiet everything is yeah it's pretty weird replied lucas as i observed the other students i realized that lucas and i were the only ones eating lunch that we brought from home the school said that lunches were paid for in the school fee however my brother and i walked in with lunch just in case we didn't like the meals that the school offered the bell rang an hour later i told lucas i would meet him in front of the school when the last bell ring i wished him luck in his classes for the rest of the afternoon and i headed to class when we arrived home my mother was in the kitchen cooking mom who told you about that school it's really weird i sat as i sat by the kitchen table oh you know mrs blackman the plump woman that i work with well she enrolled her son here earlier this year and she said she was really impressed by the change in his behavior and the school has no behavioral problems either which is a plus my brother and i weren't badly behaved but my brother was teased in his last school so my mother moved us i just want you boys to have a great experience at school and to be able to learn and explore without the fear of being teased and harassed by other students and it wouldn't hurt if lucas learned how to pick up after himself once in a while or cleaned his room now that would be a miracle i laughed even though i missed my old friends i decided to give the new school a chance for lucas's sake i tried to make friends but i felt as though the conversations were not natural it felt like speaking to a robot with a memory chip that had pre-answered responses one thing that amazed me at the school was the fact that the only adults we ever saw were teachers there were no janitors groundskeepers or even cafeteria attendants i once made a joke about where detention was held in this perfect school and the student looked at me with a blank expression the first month i just went through the phases of going to school following the rules and doing what was required of me at school then one friday i was ill and i stayed home i noticed that lucas left his lunch at home i called mom and told her but she said that lucas would be okay since he could get lunch at school i did not trust the lunch from the cafeteria but my mom just thought i was being dramatic as soon as lucas returned from school i asked him how his day was he said he had a great day and he told me how much he enjoyed the lunch at school while he was talking with me i watched as he packed away his book bag in his shoes lucas had never done this before when he would usually just drop it anywhere and mom and i would trip over them are you feeling okay since when are you packing away your bag and shoes are you feeling okay i joked i'm fine lucas laughed suddenly his facial expression changed he had a strange look in his eye for a moment then it disappeared as quickly as it appeared when i called dibs on the first controller lucas shouted as he shoved past me and rushed to the television every friday after school lucas and i would play video games till mom came home hey boys i'm home my mother looked around the living room and raised her eyebrows she walked over and placed her hand on luca's forehead and checked his temperature are you okay i was expecting to trip over your bag and choose i packed them away like i'm supposed to mom there was that look again in lucas eyes then it was gone can i eat lunch in the cafeteria from now on it was really good sure no problem lucas will you be taking lunch from the cafeteria as well mom looked at me and i shook my head no i'm good i'll pass as the weekend lingered on not once did lucas clean up after himself it made me think that i was just overreacting about him packing away his things on friday but the following week my concerns returned as mom and i noticed little changes about lucas he no longer slept in as soon as he returned home he began his homework and he no longer wanted to play video games while my mother was amazed and happy about lucas new change i saw my brother's personality being stripped right before my eyes the once happy 11 year old that i was proud to call my brother now appeared robotic and emotionless it's not that he didn't smile or laugh but when he did it seemed hollow and stiff i knew that it had to do with the food that the cafeteria was serving its students and if i wanted to save my brother i had to find out what they were putting in the food and destroy it where the food came from and how it got into the cafeteria remained a mystery especially since there were no cafeteria attendants the cafeteria doors were kept locked until lunchtime i assumed that it had an automatic timer on the lock since we never saw anyone unlock the doors ever mom don't you think it's strange that lucas behavior changed once he started eating the food from the cafeteria not this again noah nothing is wrong with the food in the cafeteria if something was wrong other parents would have spoken up about it by now so do you want pizza or chinese for dinner that was another thing that was a mystery to me i couldn't understand why parents couldn't see the changes in their children's behavior is it that good grades in a clean room is all they really want i knew that i had to figure this out on my own i decided in the perfect school i needed to be the black sheep if i went against the rules then maybe i would be able to find out more about the school not only did i find what i was looking for but i got way more than i bargained for the next day i started with something minor i placed my legs on my table while the teacher was talking then in the next class i called my cousin and talked with him on the phone the entire class in science class i threw the dead frogs on my classmates and during lunch i pulled the fire alarm even though classes were suspended for the day not one teacher commented about my behavior i didn't know what to make of it i figured since they didn't speak to me about it for sure they called my mom and spoke to her i expected my mother to come home and give me a lecture about my behavior at school but when she walked through the front door she said nothing hey mom i said casually did the school call you today noah nicholas caesar my mother placed her hands on her hips did something happen at school that i should know about no i lied it's just that my homeroom teacher said that i may make the honor roll list i just thought that she called you to confirm it oh well that's great no one from the school called but i'll let you know if they do the next day i decided to take it up a notch i spray painted the lockers in the hallway school sucks i swore at a teacher threw over tables and chairs in the classroom and picked fights with other boys in my class the entire day by the end of the day i was disappointed when no teacher noticed my behavior and i wasn't called to the principal's office if i was in my old school i would have been suspended by now i lay in my bed that night and thought about calling it quits i wasn't prepared for the bizarre situation that happened the following day just like every morning when i got to school i went to class i kept thinking that there was nothing else that happened at the school that would surprise me but today once again here i was when the bell rang i was still the only person sitting in class i found it odd and wondered if we were assigned a different classroom today but i didn't get the memo i got up and i almost reached the door when i heard a click the door was locked i turned the knob frantically and tugged on the door i heard a soft hissing sound and my eyes and throat began to burn i coughed hysterically and tried to cover my eyes i began to feel sleepy i sank to the floor and blacked out i opened my eyes groggily and expected to be tied to a chair in a dungeon on some far-off island but as i looked around i realized that i was lying on a sofa in what looked like an office nice of you to join me mr caesar a slim woman with her black hair and a tight bun and glasses looked at me sternly my name is principal rothwell would you like some water before we begin i declined as i sat up slowly i've been monitoring your behavior and it appears that you were seeking an audience now mr caesar you have an audience how can i be of assistance you have my full attention i took a deep breath this was my chance to find out the truth about this perfect school i know that you're controlling the students by putting some sort of chemical in the food in the cafeteria i said there is no way teenagers will act like that on their own don't you have any kind of conscience about what you're doing and the long-term effects this would have on them i will find out how you're controlling them even if it's the last thing that i do i expected her to get upset angry or even laugh devilishly but she kept calm and sat next to me she spoke softly and calmly in my school population i have parents who are lawyers senators doctors politicians and psychiatrists do you really expect me to take on the ramblings of a 14 year old parents want children who listen follow instructions get a's and don't cause them trouble i'm giving parents what they want as long as i have a market i will never go out of business now you can either go back to class and be well behaved or i can plant something in your brother's locker that will make him be in juvenile detention for a few years i have the means and money to get it done you will not come into my school and disrupt it do i make myself clear reluctantly i nodded good now that we have that out of the way do have a great day mr caesar i couldn't allow principal rothwell to get away with what she was doing i just needed to be smart about this lucas and the other students deserved to live a life where they were in charge of their own choices and not live like mindless puppets when my mother got home from work that afternoon she called lucas and me and we sat in the living room so i got a call from the school today mom said looking between lucas and me i felt my heart rate increase and the palms of my hands became sweaty did principal rothwell call my mom about what happened today i cleared my throat so what did the school say principal rothwell called lucas and i looked nervously at each other it looks as though lucas made the honor roll in his class mom gave lucas a hug and i told him congratulations as i ruffled his hair playfully i was proud of my brother but i just wished that he was back to his old self this celebration deserves cake my mom shouted lucas went to the kitchen returned with slices of cake on a plate the cake was delicious this is the best cake i have ever had where did you get this cake i asked i didn't purchase any cake but you're right it does taste amazing i looked at lucas where did you get this cake from i was almost afraid to hear the answer oh principal rothwell gave me the extra cake from the cafeteria today my heart plummeted
