Chapter 1 A damn Nightmare.

"Come on, lads!!! We are winning this trophy tonight. Coach Marvin screamed at his players. There was an unexpectedly large turn out at the home coming game this weekend. People from the big city came to the town Ocampos to catch the big tournament final ending today. To get it more spiced up it was two of the best teams going head-2- head at the final. Ocampos special and dearest Groundbreakers were up against their long standing rivals The Sinsters. Both teams were competiting no just for the trophy or money but for a slot in the AFL in Chicago.

The crowd were vibrant, screaming and yelling not to forget applauding at every chance of brilliance and when their team was making a breaking away or counter. With the score going in Groundbreaker's favour. The home side was pretty excited but with what seemed like a slim lead, they indeed to hang in there against a side that had won the competition like 5 times to the homes side's 2.

Among the home crowd stood a someone in a very but not too awkward costume. Like a signature look of the school, kinda reminds you of an amusement park or a cartoon character. This one was that of a bunny rabbit, wearing the football teams jersey and cheering on the team and fans. But of course they don't do that for too long, one might get tired for 90minutes straights. So it's better to have a substitute for each half.

The whistle went blowing for a massive victory and win to the home team. 1-0 a slender victory and yet another goal for Darren Cooper the captain of the team. Who stepped up and scored from the penalty spot via a rough tackle that happened in the first half. The cartoon characters were all over on the speech, fans, players, school members and supporters all out on the speech, shooting fireworks, paint sprayers everywhere lighting the clouds up with touches of green, red and blue. People smiling, same crying and ripping their tickets apart, others taking photo with the cartoon characters with journalist doing what they do best with interviewing the stars, coaches and staffs as they preparing the lifting of the trophy.

One of the cartoon characters made its way down the tunnel into the bunk, out the darkness of the night to an opening in the road, where the lights were few and barely functioning. The clown took out it's head mask to reveal it's face.

There a beautiful girl stood next to a parked bench. She had a light brown hair, eyes, light skinned, cute red cherry lips and pierced nose. She also had her ears well opened, tattoo on the left side of her breast near her chest. She stumbled and sat at the parked bench breathing heavily as she found it hard to breath in the character costume. Finding it difficult to control her breathing, she felt like she was losing it then decided to bring out an inhaler. Normally she wasn't that kinda person but childhood traumas do get to her big time, so she needs it to regulate her breathing if it's eventually gets out of hand.

Grabbed on into it and inhaled one, two and three before putting it back in her customer pocket. She got her phone out, of course people had already started updating their statues concerning the massive victory, she scoffed at this before deciding to texts her bestie on her location. She texted her telling that out on the plain field on some parked bench. When she heard a crackling noise very much close to her. Turning to see her bestie standing just almost across. Awkward but perfect time, she got up and moved to get to her but that moment she observed that a blurry shadow stood next to her. She couldn't really tell what it was and what exactly was going on. Coming closer it felt like her bestie was struggling with this stranger hiding in the puffy clouds of sprayed paints. She ran in closer to see her bestie get cut down by this stranger. Screaming to the top of her voice, calling her bestie's name. Only to gain his attention, he slowly turned to her and a shot was heard. Piercing pain went surging into her left abdomen, making her fall to the floor in pain. She laid there struggling with her thoughts and pain, the sight of blood on her hands and her bestie getting a slice through her throat was so messy. She tried to reach for her cellphone but recalled she dropped it on the parked bench when running to help her friend.

- Come on...fight it. She grinned to herself as she spotted her phone. To see it on the bench, trying to move and get to it. If she can do that she can possibly save her friend. But right then the stranger killer read her mind and walked up to her, rolling her over to let her see his full nature.

Wearing a black cooperate shirt, tie, pants and shoes. He or whoever it was was dressed up like one going on a meeting or wedding or something. One of the most cripple thing about the killer costume was the mask that was worn. Old, ancient maybe but was very much scary. Having some marks on the cheeks, forehead and possession of a lady s hair and fucking crooked smile that seem like a devil's smile.

Who was this person? Why was he tryna kill her? What would he gain exactly?. She scoffed out loud, wheezing and pleading for her life. Watching him lean his crooked creepy face at her, deliver the perfect freaky smile and lowering his one mouth cloak gun at her. She watched the bullet roll itself like a ball before a loud noise was heard. A sharp pain followed alongside a cold shuddering feeling of bitter, bloody and death. Still being able to hear as she slowly slipped away into a blurry shadow, she heard the killer in the scary getup singing out loud. It was like a whisper or a rustling of tress in the night but felt like the voice was close to her ears. It sang slowly yet cropping crack sounds of echoes to a trumming heartbeat. A short, witty yet deadly lullaby sounding like a ode.

Chapter 2 Not a fan of Mondays.

" Sammie, you still in there? A voice called out to her. She shakes her head as she still wondered if she was clearly awake. Seeing herself in the toilet. She must have dozed off while taking a leak, or probably just hanging out here to escape classes. She brushed up her hair severally and expressed a little dizziness to getting up.

"what the fuck? Sammie, get out there! The voice screamed out again, banging on the door of the toilet. She yawned as she opened the door to see her friends shaking theirs heads and making fun hypothesis of what she was actually doing in there. She didn't talk at all, just made her way to the sink to wash her hands.

" what the fuck, girl? Jesus, you went K. O on us.

"What? She managed to say as she dropped her head in the rush of water from the sink tap.

"Yeah, you were the one who said we should come to the shrine to get laid". A girl with a purple blonde commented in a serious voice.-Are you sure you're okay? Another girl in a low curly hairstyle, painted dark blue, asked, sounding concerned.

"Yeah fuck it" She scoffed, gulping some tap water down her throat.

"Well it's fifth period, Mr. Edwin's going to be quite mad if he doesn't see us in his class again this week. The first girl said with a serious look on her face.

"Well, I don't care". The girl in the low cut said

"Ball drop! Sammie and the purple blonde chorused, laughing at their ability to say it at the same time.

"Well, since you don't care, well, I do. I'm going to class okay". Another said and walked out budging the other in the shoulder on her way out.

" Fucking Jade men...always the smart one. Summer said, pulling out a pack of cigarettes.

"Seriously? You're smoking in a bathroom. Sammie asked with a buzzard look on her face.

" So...many stuffs are done in the bathroom. That's why it's called a private area. Kailey snapped at her, and Summer giggled at her statement.

" Why must you always think bad of everything? Sammie asked in a long face. Kailey didn't reply, just smiled at her as she accepted the cigar stick Summer gave her. She bent over to Sammie, who, of course had a lighter with her. She lit up the cigarette stick for Kailey who faints a smile at her in appreciation. Not only that, but she took the first draw and blew it at Sammie's face. You could tell she was feeling uncomfortable with the whole smoking thing. Summer, on the other hand, was quiet observing her girlfriends doing a little staring contest.

Sammie decided to ignore Kailey's smoke addiction and using her phone for another route away. Not like she didn't like smoking but didn't appreciate the fact of doing it in school.

" Seriously, Sammie? Summer said, recieving the cigarette back from Kailey.

"What? She asked playing hard to get.

" Come on don't be a pussy, okay. Have some".

- No, I don't to want my mouth to smell like a fire pit. She snapped at them. "Says the girl who took a nap in the bathroom. I think that messed with her brain a lot". Summer murmured to Kailey but one could hear it. Sammie had her hands folded as she tried not to punch Summer, who she considered one with a big mouth.

"Fuck you Summer" Sammie slammed.

"Don't say shit to my girlfriend. Kailey warned with her eyes staring directly at her.

"What you going to do about it worm? Sammie said confidently, understanding well that Kailey won't do anything. Indeed, she didn't do anything but stare at Sammie, the little room for privacy become hot and everyone was having that fight feeling coming on next. Kailey and Jade normally quarrel a lot but Kailey sometimes get over the edge.

Sammie felt the room with the cold stare by Kailey and Summer's eye contact sign suggesting someone to say something. Understanding that Kailey had already puffed some weed, in fact that's why she was knocked out in the bathroom in the first place, so everyone seemed fired up about it. Sammie deciding to play cool, walks over to Kailey who had the cigar stick lit up in her right hand. Took it from her with an old fashion _what the hell?__statement made by her. _

Sammie took a deep breath of this one "Just one time" she said. Inhale and exhale a puff of smoky clouds into Kailey's nostrils to make her cough out loud and Summer chuckled.

Sammie throws the cigarette into the bin and tells them to clear it all and head for lectures. Kailey groans, snatching her tests against the other. Summer sniffs her nose and picks up a spray to help get the smell of cigar out of there. They all clear up the place to avoid anyone finding out what they did here, spray perfumes, clean the sink and walk out slowly after observing the hallway for a while.

Even though they successfully get the hide and seek task of their shrine activity hidden from human eye. They still fucked up in a dumb way. The shrine is just a bathroom used as a place for smoking, having sex, mostly between Jade and her boyfriend, Summer and Kailey. It's like a popular hanging out spot for them all to catch up, miss lectures and get laid too. Sammie, Kailey and Summer walked out of the bathroom with a big smile on their faces, looking straight as they caught some guy's stare, heading for class maybe, knowing he would be halfway done at least but unknowing to them, Sammie didn't real put out the cigar stick when she threw it. Papers and other flammable materials were in the refusal been in that bathroom too. __

Chapter 3 Fire 2 Fire.

Sammie and her

silly friends found their way into Mr. Edwin's class unnoticed, or so they

thought, he caught a glimpse of their shadow sneaking in through the secondary

exit. Mr. Edwin wasn't interested in getting in a fight with them, like he

remembers the last time he confronted them for late coming and others. But he

alone knew how that ended. He let out a long sigh, suggesting his tiredness at

their behavior. But what sure did what he had to say or do before they adhere

to his advice. Nothing exactly, Sammie was in despite her curvy hips and

figure, juicy looking ass, sexy yet witty lips and tongue, her hair was like

not too long but made a very sweet impact on her style. She hated talking much,

was a gossip topic for the man's cos of her beauty. Many guys at school would

ditch their girlfriends in a heartbeat for her. She didn't have a boyfriend, so

that slot was just about opened. Among her friends, she was the only single

one, unlike like Jade, who was dating Darren Cooper, the captain of the football

team and a dreamy guy at that. Some girls say Jade is luck to have Darren,

whose father is overwhelmingly rich and sponsored the school football team.

Jade stared at her friends, who were awfully quietly seated at the back. Though, Summer had already pulled out some gum and

gambled them into her mouth. She munched on them heavily and a large sigh was

heard from the back where the 3 ridiculous friends sat. It came from Kailey,

she was more of the everything is lame and boring type to me, compared to

Jade's quiet and low lifestyle of fame, money, and perfection. Kailey was like

a quicksand, one can't tell when she is serious and when she is joking. But one

thing is certain about her, she is undeniably beautiful, despite her short

temper and hair cut. She was madly in love with the female gender and found

herself a girlfriend named Summer, Summer was the only one who literally

understood Kailey's nature of black and blue. She was wild like her, hot like

her, her personality was bold, confident and party type. Furthermore, she was

brilliant, hard-working and madly in love with Kailey.

Mr. Edwin's teaching was biology,

reproduction stuff and each time he'd say something naughty about the body

part, Kailey would wink at Summer, who would smile back. The continuous

procedure was making Sammie bored, and she let out a slow yawning, the picture

that came to mind of Kailey, Summer was that of a camel/ house horse chewing

grass and that pretty much made a laugh of em all. Their laughter arouses the

entire class to what seems amusing, and it just happened to be when Mr. Edwin

had a problem with his small man and had to scratch it softly. So, the moment

of laughter from Kailey, Summer, and Sammie collided with the laughter from the

class, it soon felt like they were laughing at the same thing when they

weren't. Mr. Edwin didn't eventually like their behavior to a little incident

and got a sight of Kailey and the gang.

"Hey smart pants! Mr. Edwin said, calling the

attention of the Three Stooges that stayed in the back seat. " You know if you

three actually paid attention in class you won't be such a wimpy prick". He

whined, and the class went into a chorused laughter. Jade didn't say anything

but let out a slight chuckle. She had been here from the beginning, so she was

adverted any insults. Jade was the smarter among all her friends, having a

brilliant dad and an exceptional mom was quite the worth. Her dad never joked

about education, cos with it, you are unstoppable. That's partly a lie because

he only says that cos he wants her to be rich, not depend on him always.-Huh?

There was a long face pulled out by the surprised classmates to see that none

of them were interested in what Mr. Edwin had said. They all had their faces on

looking pale, probably a move to make his insults look pretty lame, and it was

working. He grinned at them and decided to make another wing at the old

baseball court.

" Where's the

scrotum located in the body? Sammie". He asked, smiling mischievously, well

assured that she would fail because she was not that intelligent like Jade, but

she was a pro at one thing and that was making any man do whatever she asked

off, with her cute eyes and romantic words. She got up shyly as all eyes buried

themselves on her. Some talk about her sexy shape, cubby breasts and others

talking about her beauty. She thought for a second and decided to play it like

Kailey would.

"It's right there".

She said, pointing underneath his brown trousers. This made the class burst

into laughter as they felt she not only failed it partial but made a joke out

of the lecturer. He faint a smile and replied; where is it in your body? Jade

stared at her bestie to hear a solid response, but she wasn't also surprised

she got this one instead. "Why should I care? She hissed with a look of non

challenged. "Exactly, that's what your entire life has been. Careless and careless".

He snapped at her, letting the class go

into another round of laughter. He smiled, tapping his on the back as kid well

done, but Sammie wasn't done yet. "Well, I don't remember losing anything, but

you lost your wife". Sammie laid on another dreadful blow from her tongue. She

was beautiful like a morning rose but with a sharp, pointy root. "You little

rat... Mr. Edwin grasped as he held himself not to harm her. Though she was

right, about him losing his wife to a divorce case, but why say it openly and

why in such a manner. He realized that he'd better end this battle of savage,

or else she would say in the open how he tried to get her on his bed.

That moment the bells went ringing because

someone tricked the fire alarm, must haven been a fire somewhere in the school

and to that Sammie and her friends already knew the place and the cause.
