Secrets in the Night

"Um, well the excuse I told my parents was that I didn"t feel well, but in all honesty I just went to spend the day with my boyfriend." He said sipping his slushy with his cheesy smile.

"Ohh~ Anyway, Ollie do you have all your stuff for this weekend? Cause I"m not going swing back to your house to get it."

We made it to my house and luckily my parents weren"t home. We grabbed a couple of drinks and snacks then made our way up to my room. Thankfully I remembered to clean it last week end so it was pretty decent. My king size bed was under one of the two windows in the room, in the dead center, my window seat that was closer to the bathroom held my blanket and the most recent book I was reading, "Never Let Go". My flat screen tv was mounted up against one of the walls in a seating area surrounded by a couch with a little coffee table in the middle. We dumped our bags on the bed and our snacks on the table.

"So it"s done, okay?" Ollie said popping open a soda. Ollie had always been my nickname for him. "So how was school without me?"

That"s how we spent our day talking, playing video games, watching tv, etc. Our week was just that other then the glares I received from Crystal nothing much happened.

{Friday}

"Ugh..Finally those damn teachers and students are out of the building. Now I can start setting up my playground." The leader of a group of three conversed between themselves with smirks as they grabbed the duffel bags that laid at their feet.

"Welcome to hell you guys!" They made their way into the building through the unlocked window that someone left open for them. They then got started on each individual rooms.

"Don"t forget your bag." Ollie yelled from the bottom of the stairs waiting for my slow butt to hurry up. Yes, yes, I"m a big procrastinator, so I didn"t really have all my stuff together.

"Okay, I"m coming!" I rushed down the stairs and looked at the clock on the wall.

5:50 am..

Shiznicks.. we are going to be late.

"Come on, we"re late because of you!" I left the house with Ollie behind me.

We made it just in time. I looked around at the other kids and saw them with all their stuff in hand some had pillows and blankets others had sleeping bags. Me and Ollie had both we came prepared to make a corner in a classroom on the floor into a comfortable bed.

"Okay every one you will be put into groups of 6, ten people in each group." The teacher explained. It seemed like all the groups where formed except for the group with Crystal, which just so happened, was lacking two people.

"Okay each group has a classroom to sleep in. There will be pizzas and drinks delivered every day. The teachers Mr. Jones, Miss Nightwood, and Derek the P.E teacher will be here if there is any need of assistance. There is no leaving till Sunday, so if you need to get something out of your car I advise you to do it now. If not you many enter the building and go put you things in the appropriate class room."

With that he left getting in his car and going home leaving the teachers to deal with the 60 students that where there.

Me and Ollie entered the school and made our way to the classroom, we picked the corner of the room the furthest away from the other kids. All the desks were moved out only leaving a clear open space. I guess since it was the weekend of thanksgiving break they said, "hey, why the hell not".

"Ollie, is it done?" I asked after we laid everything down and sat back to relax on our makeshift bed. "Yea."

I turned around after feeling the glare of someone and came face to face with Crystal.

"Is there a problem?" I asked getting up cause I felt uncomfortable with her and her position that stood above myself.

"Oh, no problem just letting you things know the pizza is here." She said turning with a sadist grin on her face and left the room.

"Gosh I hate her, this would be a great opportunity to mess up her stuff but I"m to hunger." Ollie said stretching and making his way to the door. I laughed.

"Ollie shut up. We will have plenty of opportunities to do that."

It was now a quarter till midnight and everyone had retired to the classrooms they had been assigned to. The teachers had stepped outside for a smoke. Having to deal with so many kids was stressful.

Three figures coming up from behind them and chuckled.

Bang!

The teachers are down. Each hit in the head and dragged into the bushes and out of sight.

"Okay 11:59, do it now." One of the people said after they finished chaining up the doors and sealing up the last window. At exactly 12 o"clock the power in the building died locking all the automatic doors. With the help of a signal blocker, the kids on the inside were not able to call for help either.

"Well our job is done. All we have to do now is sit back and watch all hell break loose." Another guy said as the watched the teens through the tv monitors inside the school.

"This is gonna be fun boys. Everything is in place so all that"s left is wait for the signal." The assumed leader said.

[Izzy"s p.o.v]

What the heck just happened? One minute me and Ollie were playing Fun Run, then the next all the lights cut off. Leaving us in complete darkness. Everybody came out into the hall ways to see what was happening.

"Hey has anyone seen the teachers?" Someone yelled trying to quiet down everyone.

"Nope, but if you excuse me I have to use the restroom." A short nerdy looking girl said pushing her way through the crowd.

"Well, damn maybe they stepped out for a smoke or something. My group will go check." A boy named Mark said. "They probably know what"s going on."

Him and six other people broke away from the large group. It was oddly quiet for them twenty minutes before the group came back. But it was a shocker that they came back before the girl.

"Hey, Ollie" I whispered. "That girl isn"t back yet it"s been around thirty minutes or so."

Ollie laughed a little before responding. "Maybe she"s constipated."

We cracked up earning a few confused glances our way.

"Umm, we couldn"t find them and for some reason we couldn"t open up the doors to go outside and search." Mark said when they came back. "I guess they we"re dead serious about the word lock-in cause we can"t get out."

"Hey what if this is a prank that they are doing back on us?" Zack said getting a round of laughter. "Yea we should just act like we are unfazed by the situation. So everybody go back to what you are doing and they will have to come out eventually."

Zack always trying to be the leader and order people around got everyone back into the classrooms. It wasn"t until a loud piercing scream interrupted the mood. Causing everybody to come out into the hallway in search of where it came from.

A Scream

There it was again. That scream. It was causing shivers to creep down my back and fear to wash through me. We all ran to where it came from, the girls bathroom. Going in the first thing you saw was blood coating the walls. There in the center laid her body sprawled out on the ground her lifeless eyes staring up at us. Her throat was slit open and a knife wedged in her chest.

All hell broke loose upon the sight.
