"Oh! No problem. its fine by me. anytime." the principal said

"Good. see ya later"

Immediately the inspector left, the principal asked a teacher to gather all the students in the hall that he needed to address them urgently.

It took about an hour and thirty

mins to gather the entire school and to get them to settle down.

"students of east high...

On hearing the principals voice, everyone became quiet and the hall was in total silence.

"in light of the recent events, mark my word. I said 'events'.which means what happened here today had be going on for some days now. According to inspector Joe, several

bodies has been found in different places in town, all died in the same manner. I gather you all to tell you to please be very careful from hence forth. Avoid walking at night and if it so happens you have to move

in the night, please move in groups. Don't be by yourself. Watch out for suspicious acts and movement. Do not hesitate to report any of such

if and when noticed and if you can, move with something you can protect yourself with. Not guns. I mean pepper spray, tazers or pen knives. Your safety is our priority. Do

i make myself clear.?"

"Sir yes sir." they chorused

"And secondly, we will have a transfer student resuming on monday, so do well to be receptive and...

He was cut short by a student waving his hand.

"Yes? What's the problem?"

"I have a question sir."

"Ok go ahead." the principal said

"The transfer student, is it a boy or girl?"

They all burst into laughter

"Shut up and sit down. like I was saying before that nuthead interrupted me. Do well to be

nice and accomodating. understood?"

"understood sir." they chorused

"That'll be all. You're dismissed. see you on monday. Don't forget your assignments. and you two (pointing to Rosie and Jennifer 1) see

me now."

The students trooped out of the hall heading to their respective homes.

The Jennifer's, Rosie, Theo and Gwen stayed back.

when the hall emptied save for the people mentioned above, the principal called Rosie and Jennifer

1 into his office while the others stood outside glaring at themselves.

"miss Rosie and miss Jennifer I called you into my office not to know what or who caused the

fight but to issue a final warning to the both of you. Don't let it repeat itself again. the

both of you have constantly been a threat to the peace of this school. the next time it happens its expulsion for both of you. Got

it?"

"Yes sir." they responded

"Good. now get out." he ordered them.

They went out. each to their to group

"You're lucky to get out this time loser. next time. hump!" and the Jennifer's left swaying their waists.

Gwen flicked Rosie's neck.

"ouch! That hurts. What was it for?" Rosie asked

"For being to hot headed. I coulda handled it." Gwen said

"Really? handled it? Who are you

kidding? You wouldn't have done

anything. you should be thankful i came to your rescue." Rosie said

"girls! girls! Stop the bickering. its getting late. let's go home." Theo said

on the way home, Gwen suddenly burst into laughter.

"Gwen, are you okay?" Rosie asked

but Gwen only continued laughing

"Theo, I think we should get her to a hospital."

"No.(still laughing) I just remembered something." Gwen said still not being able to stop laughing

"Really? What is it?" Rosie asked

"Theo fainted when he saw the bodies in the bathroom." Gwen said

"OMG! serious? Theo, you fainted?Rosie asked as she joined in the laughter.

"you didn't see the bodies. They were disgusting. its just cos Gwen has seen movies of these kinda stuff and is already used to the sight that's why she didn't faint." Theo said trying to defend himself but it only made the girls laugh more.

After a while, they stopped.

"oh! that reminds me, did you guys see the news? there was a meteor shower three days ago in...

"bla bla bla. Don't you talk about fun things? news, freaky stuff, news, news, news. you're a

bore Gwen." Rosie said.

"hmm. fine! I'll stop but only because I don't want Theo to faint again."

The girls burst into laughter again.

they made fun of Theo till they got to their houses.
