Reservoir High 4: Demise of the Door

The contents of this story are purely fictional, any coincidental similarities to the real world are purely coincidental and hugely unfortunate.

"Ding ding dong, Sorry for the interruption,. .. blah blah blah blah" the Public Announcement system rang.

"If you are sorry then don't interrupt!" Psycho muttered to himself as he sat in the teacher's workstation.

"All staff please meet in the Sound and Sight room IMMEDIATELY for an emergency gathering, Thank you." rang the VOICE.

The VOICE was the designated doer of dirty work in Reservoir High, He was often the target of the students' anger in the school but little did they know that he was but a voice for the Doorman and Grim Reaper.

"Sigh, when Robin Hood was around, he wouldn't agree to using this stupid sound system to call for these meaningless stuff, life was good when Robin was around... ..." The VOICE sighed to himself.

Gradually, the various General Education Officers moved into the Sound and Sight room. Parrot the head of parental involvement, Psycho, Blue, Dashing, He-man, Rotary and the rest of the 'fun squad' took up their usual position for these boring meetings. The rest of the school staff were soon seated and Grim Reaper started to speak.

"K-O-lleagues, prease sigh in at the table, this is important as we are tracking all our meetings." nervously, Grim Reaper scanned the motley crew assembled before him.

"They look tired, hope the news will perk them up, but hopefully nobody claps when Doorman gives the good news, he might just die of a stroke... ..." Grim Reaper sighed to himself. "What did I ever do to deserve this?"

"Must be announcing that he is staying...shit ..." Psycho whispered to Blue and gang.

"Don't be so sure, might be good news for all you know." Blue replied.
