Chapter 2

November 11th 2015

I've been thinking about who it should be. It can't be one of the students because of what happened to Jenna, the police would question me first. It's got to be someone who no one would notice if they disappeared. It can't be mum or dad, but other than them or the students at my school, then it could be anyone.

Also Dr Lily. Can't be her either. It'd be way too obvious if it were her.

I don't want to be caught. That's the main thing. I wouldn't want to go to prison or juvey or be sent to death or whatever for something like murder. It's natural. It shouldn't be against the law. Survival of the fittest isn't it? If others can't stomach the sight of blood then they shouldn't be alive. It's simple as that. It's because the weaker, more pathetic ones chose to follow someone and became dependent leaving everyone involved vulnerable because of the responsibility and lack of responsibility.

I'm just getting natural selection going again. This? This life isn't natural. We should be out there hunting for our dinner. Aren't people supposed to be crazy proud of their ancestry? Yeah, I'm sure people are happy to brag that we picked and ate lice and their eggs from each other's backs on a daily basis.

It could be Mr Ellis. I'm in his form but so are eighteen other people. I'm also in his physics class; one of the most popular subjects this year. He leaves school early on Mondays and Thursdays since he's not teaching last periods on those days and the stupid physics clinic in on Thursday lunchtimes. I could go to them and eventually I'd have a solid enough alibi to be with him, so it doesn't look like as soon as I started coming to these dumb clinics then he was murdered. Even if it were a coincidence I'd still be a main suspect.

I've got to make sure he has family or something like it. There's always at least one major dispute in families. Mine is me. Mr Ellis seems to be loved by everyone so there's got to be some things hidden. When they start the investigation, they'd go to his family first, ask if they knew anyone who'd want to kill him. They probably start suspecting each other and bring up loads of things which would keep the police on them for a while at least. That is if he does had family and friends.

Mr Ellis. Yeah, I think he'd be good. Even if the police do end up suspecting me, I doubt they'll find a reason for me to kill me. He's most likely the most loved teacher in school and he's going to be helping me out with physics.

I have a good feeling about this.
