Her hands trembled, and she kept her eyes shut. She waited for the body to drop dead for a few seconds, but didn't hear it. Fearfully, she forced her eyes open.

In shock and dismay, he was still standing, she watched as black sand poured out from the hole on his head, eventually bringing out the bullet.

Terrified, she ran as fast as she could and eventually made it out, breathing heavily and unnoticed. She wasn't aware of how hard Jason had to fight, to stop Dark Matter from killing her.

When she was out of his reach, he collapsed to the floor exhausted.

" May! May!" Liam called, 

May finally stopped running and Liam caught up with her.

" How did it go"

May panted heavily and managed to say! " We need to_ get the heck_ out of here"

" You didn't do it?" He asked, 

" I didn't...? I just watched the bullet fall from his head!!" She said, collapsing on the grass. 

" We need to leave"

    ** How will I talk to her ** May pondered in her heart, ** okay, I'll act very emotional... No not act~ I'll be very emotional. But how will I become emotional without acting?_ duh!!! Why I'm I so good at acting!!?** She wailed In her heart, sitting on her bed and gazing at the moon; as if awaiting answers from it.** Because of me, my best friend will die!** she cried. She could feel the moonlight embrace her with its warmth and the cool breeze calm her heart.Suddenly, an idea popped into her head." Why didn't I think of that?" She said out loud, joyfully.Then she jogged to Stacey's room and knocked thrice on her door." Come in!" Stacey said, combing her hair.On entering, she asked May: " how do I look?"" Wow!" She gasped, almost not recognising her friend. " You look amazing!"" Really! You think!" She giggled, " well I decided to remove my ponytail for a while, it started to become a burden...

    Episode 18 May walked into the dining hall the next morning, looking gloomy and dejected. She looked at the place she always stayed with Stacey and saw her sitting there, as unhappy as she was but a bit angrier. She sits in front of her and looked at her face, for any sort of friendliness but she keeps her face down. Without her ponytail, she looked more mature and meaner than ever. May stayed there for a while but Stacey continued to ignore her existence. She could feel the rising pain her presence caused. Like magma rising from a volcano, she looked red and was seemingly about to explode. Fully understanding that she meant it, May stood up and walked away. " May!" She heard Liam call. Turning she saw him, sitting alone, eyes focused ahead and his fingers underneath his jaw. Deciding t

    Liam landed hard on the ground. Adjusting his gaze he forced himself up, his fellow teammates getting up with him. He never expected the game to become this difficult. " What do we do now?" Ali asked. " We continue playing" he replied Helen and his opponents have already captured their flag and were heading towards theirs. He and his team tried desperately to tag them, but they glided elegantly dodging their attempts. " Quick! They'll soon win again!" He shouted. They tried hard again but soon landed~ not on the ground, but in jail " This is hopeless," Ali said, his Indian accent making them feel more hopeless than they are. " Not yet," Liam said reassuringly " Dude! They've won five times already. Using skates is just cheating. Plus, what's Stacey doing at their side? I thought she's our classmate, we sure need her athletics." Oliva muttered. " Don't worry okay! We still got this." Liam said. Helen's team

    Episode 21 Jason opened his eyes to a very unusual warmth. The serenity of the woods was very refreshing and there was no painful sensation he would usually feel from the sun's rays. Sitting up, he couldn't understand what was going on. Since the day of his possession, he had become very used to the cold lifeless feeling in his veins, and the constant barrage of information coming to his brain at all times. He stood up in panic. There was no calmness that he always feel and no feeling in the ground. His eyes widen in the realisation " I_i'm free! I'm no longer possessed... I can't believe this." He muttered overwhelmed with joy. He ran about the woods jubilating with no care in the world. He suddenly hides behind a tree on sees Stacey running inside the camp crying. ** What is wrong with her** he thought. He then decided that he would need to sneak into his room. When he was possessed, this would have bee

    … “ Mr. Matthew!!” the leader of the search party called through the phone. “ Yes, what is it?” Mr. Mathew answered, “ The_the river! I don't know what the hell is going on?” His shaky voice answered as if he had seen a ghost. “ Did you find the boy?” He asked, uninterested in what he is worried about. “ There's black sand man! It's as if it's pouring out of the land… And it's moving around in an arc or something. “ Mr. Matthew sighed and cut off the phone, his face remaining expressionless. He puts his feet on the desk and used a hanky to clean the sunglasses on his face. The search party watched the eerie phenomenon happening right in front of them in the dawn of morning. Fishes in the river either ran mad or fade into nothingness. Dark Matter made them go on a rampage, attacking even their predators. A particular tuna with black shot eyes furiously approached a great white shark. The predator,

    " Liam! What the heck is that? " Linda asks as she and the others; May and Stacry, run towards him in the middle of the field. “ A warning. ” Liam replies solemnly as he gazes at it, which happens to be the only cloud in the sky. It soon caught a lot of attention from the students as some point at it, others running out of their lodges to catch a glimpse of the mysterious symbol very slowly swirling in the distance. “ What's the possibility that that is just a natural rare cloud formation phenomenon and nothing for us to worry about? ” Stacey asks nervously. “ I really hope so. ” Liam replies. ** Or probably less than 24 hours. ** The thought crossed his mind. “ And if it's not? ” May asks. “ Then we would have about three days to one week to escape. It all depends on Jason. ” Liam says, supporting himself on the soft grasses on the ground. “ We always knew that we did not have a lot of time left. But that, if it's what we think it is, is just a clear r

"Absolutely," replied Mike with a mischievous grin. “ You're a genius! Almost everyone is coming. ”Mike chuckled, appreciating the outcome of their plan. "Great job, Mike! Now we can have an amazing time with all our friends here." Liam smiles. “ But Liam... ” Mike pauses, wearing a worried look on his face. “ Yeah? ” “ Do you sometimes feel that the plan is going too well?” “ Huh? ”Liam pales, his brow furrowing deeper. “ Like when what you worked so hard for is finally paying off, but then you feel a tight knot in your stomach that something is about to go terribly wrong? ” “ What? ” Liam eyes grew wide open.

    Miss Claire lies head bent sleeping on her desk, but suddenly, black specks of dust of dark matter gradually sip out of her onto the desk. It escalates until the entire table is covered in waves of dark matter. Then at a point two hands rose from the sand and forcefully grabs her by the hair, jerking her awake. She screams out of fear but soon realizes it was just a dream. But how much of it was? Touching her face softly, She could vividly remember the cold feeling of the palm on her face, and that very day that sand seemed to sip out of her body onto the desk. The memory still haunts her, and she wishes she had spoken up, but who really would believe such nonsense? So she tried her best to swallow it up, convincing herself that it was just a nightmare. But the suit. **Clothes don't just disappear after a few days of removing it does it?** she asks herself, grasping the chair's arm as she allows those memories back into her mind.

    “ How's May doing? ” he help her out finally by asking. That gave her the boost she needed. She was doing this for her best friend. Her one and only friend that this moron hurt so deeply. “ She's furious with you! ” she snapped. Her eyes locked on to his renewed boldness it lacked before. The cool-headed Liam was stunned at the sudden change of emotion. Those green eyes of hers were fixed on his, with no single sign of shyness he had ever seen in any girl's gaze before. “ She is, is she? ” he asks, forced to look away. “ You lunatic! You didn't think anyone would find out. She literally dated her rapist for years, don't you have any dignity left? ” She charged at him in anger. “ I'm sorry Stacey. But I'm still mourning his death, please let's do this sometime later. ” He replied calmly, wiping off droplets of tears from his eyes with the back of his hand. Stacey jolted with pity. She didn't think that he was burying all that hurt and regret in his hea

    May wakes up the following day in her warm bed. She sat and rubbed her eyes while the sunlight bathed the room. After freshening up, she leaves. “ So you're saying that dark matter is an actual creature, that wants to destroy the whole world or something? ” Stacey asks when May concluded her story as they head to the dining. “ I dunno what is it it wants, but it just fills you with hate and revenge. Making you feel like that's the only thing in the world that you need. ” “ That's creepy!” she shivered. “ And he can control you too? ” She asks. At this point, Stacey was willing to believe her even if she mentions seeing walking-dead people. “ Yeah. But you still have a measure of control, it is your body. But, it would be very difficult. Imagine, we've given Jason so much reason to hate and want to get revenge on us that I doubt we have a week to plan our escape. ” May says they got to their table, their breakfast being served simultaneously. “ Geez, we sh

I can't control my body. ”** ** “ My sight turned on and off as my feet mechanically moved back to the camp.I've literally been fighting with every part of me. My body, my mind, my heart.I keep trying to find reasons not to get revenge but that was all I was filled with.I was bombarded with only the pain, the regret I felt. Rage overwhelmed me, and I had all the power to exert it.But the mayhem, the agony, I cannot bring them here too. ”**May fought, as flashbacks of all the horrors that happened in the Philippines bombarded her. The scarred faces, the screams, and the death that was spread, and in the middle of it stood the cause.

    Jason returns to the newly found buried treasure ( the library ) immediately after the announcement not to leave the campgrounds made by Miss Claire. As he dives into one of the books there, he quickly realized how much he missed the gentle pounding of his heart due to excitement, and the growing suspense inside him in expectation of what he was about to dive into. But perhaps being possessed by a cold soulless creature isn't that bad after all. The thought came across his mind. It has its perks. He didn't feel sey or afraid, he had inhuman strength and he was almost indestructible. Wasn't he just shot in the head? But yet he was still alive. Even still, he didn't like losing almost all his emotions and killing innocent people. Damn! What happened to Mike? And what will happen if they find out about the people he killed? All these thoughts interrupted him from his reading as he looked forward absent-minded. _____ “ Wha... What do you mean you

A smile drew across his face as he salivates in expectation since it has been a long since he tasted anything.Quickly, he headed over to the dining and positioned himself at the quietest table there. As usual, his food was served. An incredibly beautiful fried chicken begged him to eat it, along with rice. Of course, he couldn't reject its wish, so he ate it all a little bit too fast, not minding the souls around him. He kept on eating plate after plate even though his stomach begged him to stop. After almost finishing an elephant's share, he collapsed on his chair and had to rest there for an hour for his body to proceed with what the heck just happened.After that, he stood up and walked out of the dining hall.
