"Students remember why we are going on this school trip, there has been a series of murders and disappearances from children in our high school. Let's get a move on the last bus is leaving in 5 minutes. If you're not on the bus by then, then we are leaving without you." The principal yells out to all the students who haven't left yet.
"Mei! Where is my brother? I can't believe he's not here, we have to go find him," Holly screams in panic while grabbing Mei's hand darting inside the school.
"There's laughter coming from upstairs. It sounds like Nigel and Roys!" Mei says rather quietly.
Holly sprints up to the third floor towards the boy's locker room. Mei follows close behind. Holly bursts through the door and starts yelling at Harvey. Which continues for a couple of minutes. While Mei waits in the hallway.
Roy says while opening the door, "Hey I have to take a piss, I'll be back."
But when Roy walks out he drops what seems to be a letter and a ring that Mei picks up then hands to him.
Holly looks at the door making sure Mei is still there. Mei gives off a head movement indicating how they should go. But then the door closes. Holly continues lecturing Harvey on why they should all be on the bus by now. She then grabs Harvey and Nigel's wrists pulling them outside. They run to the second floor but the door blocking the first-floor staircase is locked.
"Oh, shoot we're stuck!" Harvey says kinda panicking but trying not to show it.
"Hey, anyone else realizes how Mei's gone?" Nigel mentions looking around.
"Well, I guess since we're trapped I might as well go use the restroom. Maybe Mei went there. You two try to find Roy." Holly demands while leaving the two boys on the second floor.
