No one was around. The place felt quiet, dull and gloomy. There are empty lockers with doors yawning open. Few duffle bags and backpacks sit on the floor.I have been exhausted and my eyes are heavy because of less sleep last two days with bothering ominous thoughts.Inhaling and heavying a deep sigh. A shoelace poking out of a closed locker catches my glimpse.

I feel my mouth dry with an emptiness in the pit of my stomach.What happened to me?"Wher - Where am I?"I whisper parting my chapped lips, swiftly opening my eyes.Taking a deep breath and opening my eyes wide I stare at the white ceiling in front of me. My body feels cold and weak. Quivery, my muscles twitching I rub my forehead confused. "Where am I?"."Madelyn, "I hear a familiar voice beside me. "Are you okay?".Slowing moving I met Kristin's grey eyes."What happened,?"I ask her. "Where am I?"She regards me for a second frowning before she answered my question. "You passed out as soon as we walked out of the class!" she ceased her brows together. "What!?,"I blurt weakly.

My stomach hardens and there is a burn of bile in the back of my throat."Trying to hide from aren't you?" the voice speaks beside me giving me a sudden heart attack.I lift my gaze and freeze gaping at the faceless hooded figure. My chest thudding hard from an increased heart rate, sweat slides down my cheek from the forehead.This...he...who..why...My fingers and hands trembling I try to focus. I'm unable to close my eyes. The hooded figure stays fixed with my gaze then a sudden dragging noise distracts me. I dart my gaze against the long axe it was having in its hand. The sharp iron metal scraping the wooden floors of my room.My chin and lips trembling I st

A wave of nausea hits me with rising panic and I hold Kristin's shoulders. A cop was right there in front of my house porch, while a dead body was buried in my backyard under the rose bed.There were no roses in my garden. I got it soon after the burial of the body, to cover the place. My heart pounded with a dread twist in my gut. What if I get caught?How will I explain this to my parents?Will I end up in jail forever?Sighing Kirsten pushes my hands off her shoulders.
