Headteacher Tony called out the register on the school bus. He was expecting some comical replies, these being the unruliest collection of schoolchildren (and teachers) that he had ever seen, but there were none. He suspected this was because the top 100 posters table doesn’t copy and paste very well at all, and the writer was a bit pushed for time.

Whoo…long list that, thinks Tony. 99 of the little schmucks, + him = 100 people. How would they all fit into the zoo? It can’t be a very big zoo…Tony, an expert in farm animals, had never heard of it. Tony ducked as Monkey With Attitude swung over his head. He was used to all these animal like humans by now.
Tony takes a long sip on his drink, handily supplied by one of the suit clad government men who had insisted they come on the trip. In fact, they were funding the whole thing, which was pretty nice of them. Reminded him of a film he once watched actually…
Tony was just thinking how goddamn nice it was that they were funding it, when the door of the bus swung open, and a figure, silhouetted by sunlight, walked in the door.
Tony sighed. Shaneo was back, despite being expelled 6 times already.
“Shaneo, what are you doing back here?”
The figure looked uneasy, and replied in a Homer Simpson Double voice “Shaneo? Who is zis Shaneo? My name is Saleeva. I have a girlfriend, and I am in a band.”
He must have a new address. Damn Microsoft, giving away houses for free.
“Alright, Saleeva, come aboard. You may as well”.
Shaneo smiled, and took the last seat on the bus.

Soon, the drinks drugged by the government officials started to take effect. All 101 characters fell into a deep slumber.

Sheepy woke up in a hut. His first attempt at thought was to try and remember how much he had drunk last night – why else would he wake up lying on the floor? Sheepy rolled over onto one side, looking for anyone else. No one there. Damn. A sudden horror rushed through Sheep’s body, prompting him to jump up and look out the hut windows. No sheep. Thank God for that. He’d never lived it down after the first time.
Then he remembered – wasn’t he supposed to be at the zoo about now? Or had he managed to get drunk before he got there? The last thing he remembered was thinking how comfortable the coach seats looked…
His questions were answered by a sheet of paper he found lying where his prone body had been. It was A4, printed in black ink.
Sheepy prayed for it not to be a homework assignment.
The note read:
YOU have been selected to take part in Rattle Boyale. You have no choice about this. You will see that you have been given a weapon. The weapon is different for different people. You will not need to eat or drink, because it would just hinder the story. Basically, you all have to kill each other. The last man standing is the winner.
You cannot post more than once a day, and you cannot kill off more than one character per post. Don’t kill off people just because you don’t like them, and if you can’t remember who’s been killed off then ask me to send you a list.
Anyone can post in this story, unless I decide that you suck.

Sheepy looked around, and he saw his weapon. A bottle of Vodka. He decided that it would be a better weapon when empty, so he popped the top off with a *click*.

Majk walked along the beach, sand warm between the toes of his bare feet. Shoes were not a necessity, he figured. But then he had never seen Die Hard, so he would think that.
In his hands was a pistol, and around his waist was a holster. He had never held a gun until the last few minutes. This was all so new to him, so forign, so dangerous...
He understood that he was going to have to kill a lot of people in order to survive himself. It was a tough choice to make, but when it comes down to it, he valued his own life higher than the lives of his classmates.
The beach was long, and had the sea on one side, large cliffs on the other. The cliffs were a perfect place for Snipers, Majk understood that, but he knew he had to get to a faraway part of the island before everyone else came to the inevitable reasoning that he himself had decided upon. Where he had started out was an old village - huts everywhere. Lots of people would die there, he thought, simply because there was a lot of people there to start with. This escape along the beach was his only hope of escaping the carnage that was bound to follow.
He had thought of going to look for Ben Hodgetts and the rest of his friends, but he knew that they would have to die eventually. He wasn't going to make it harder than it would be anyway.
He heard shots ring out from the direction he had come from. Who was the intedned target? Which of his classmates was now lying on the floor, blood trickeling out of a hole?
He shuddered, and looked backward. He saw a glint, which, had he been smarter, he would have known to be the lens of a sniper rifle reflecting off the sun, towards its target.
Him.
A single bullet flew through his skull, right between his eyes. Majks eyes widened in a brief moment of realisation, then he fell to the floor.
He didn't even have time to see his life flash before his eyes.
Our camera zooms out from the fallen body, and flys out slightly wobbely, very fast, for about 200 meteres along the beach, stopping at another body lying on the floor. This body had a gun: A sniper rifle, some skin: intact, and a name: Sniper.
Sniper stood up, happy with his kill. He was going to win this game, no matter what.
1 down, 100 to go.
