Miles' POV:
"That's not gibberish."
"What are you talking about, they're literally not real words."
"Trust me, I speak gibberish. That's not it."
"Of course you speak gibberish. Cause anyone can speak the official crazy language."
Sitting in Jamie's dorm on her bottom bunk we looked over the notes I'd collected.
"Well, how do we decode it then? Maybe it's something important."
"Miles, if it wasn't something important they wouldn't have bothered encoding it in the first place!"
"Totally my point!"
Sighing, Jamie got off her bed and went to her computer. Typing in, 'Caesar Cipher decoder' in the Google Search, she explained as the page loaded,
"In IT we're doing codes. We were expanding on this one the other day. It's pretty simple."
As the page loaded, I looked over her shoulder as she copied one of the note's letters into the bar, clicked decode, and it came up with real words.
"This is why I'm friends with you!"
"Why, because I'm taking IT and you're not?"
"Exactly man!"
Reading the translated words, my blood went cold at what it said.
"You broke my dad, now I'll break you." Jamie read out loud, her voice getting quieter with every word. "What the hell? Miles, who did you piss off this time?"
"What? No one! I have no idea where this is coming from man."
"Mhm."
After we decoded the other messages, each one getting more sinister than the last, we laid them out in order, looking for some kind of pattern.
You broke my dad, now I'll break you.
I'll strike when you least expect it.
I'll leave you an empty shell of what you once were.
There's no escape. I'm everywhere. I'm nowhere. You can't defeat me.
You took my loved one. Now, you'll pay.
"Seriously, what did you do?!" Jamie asked, obviously concerned.
"Nothing!"
"Then why are you getting frickin death threats in your daily mail Miles?!"
"How the heck am I supposed to know!"
Jamie was pacing around the room while I sat on her bed watching her.
"We could tell your dad."
"That'll get me killed."
"We could tell the principle."
"That'll get me killed."
"If talking to everyone will get you killed why'd you talk to me?!"
"Because I didn't know what it said!"
Jamie glared me down, then sat her ass on the bed next to me.
"Miles, you're the dumbest person I've ever met."
"I know. That's why you love me."
"Sure. Okay, we're gonna have to figure out this whole thing on our own then."
"Yep. Guess so."
"One more thing."
"What?"
"If you stole a pencil from them or something Miles I swear to God-"
"Jamie!"
