AMONG US | HORROR

CHAPTER FOUR.

CASSIUS, NAJAH, ADRIAN, SAIGE, CHADÈ, BAXTER, LARON, AND MAY ALL STOOD AROUND EACH OTHER LOOKING DOWN AT THE BLOOD INKED PAPER.

"Wait, wait, wait," Cassius rubbed his temples. "Najah, explain what happened again?"

Najah dampened her matte lipstick coated lips. "Okay, so Breanna and I had walked to the bathroom then we went to my dorm and she told me she'd wait outside for me while I got myself together. I went outside, took a really quick shower, changed into some fresh clothes, then I went back outside. I looked around for Bre and called out for her but there was no sign of her—but then I ended up stepping on his bloody note." She explained, waving the paper in the air.

"From now on, we need to stick to the buddy system!" Saige said to the group. "We need to be more closer than ever!"

"Damn, not my girl Bre!" Laron shook his head.

"Her dumbass was gon' be the first one to die anyway," Adrian mumbled, crossing his arms.

May sniffed. "She's really gone. What are we gonna do now?"

Adrian scrunched his face up. "We gon' get the fuck outta here! What kinda dumbass question is that? Who let a white girl up in an HBCU anyway?"

Najah hit his arm and turned to May. "On his behalf, I am so sorry."

Chadè waved her hand in the air. "Looookkk, Ion know about y'all, but I'm ready to pack my bags and raise the hell up outta this joint!"

"And I'm right witchu!" Cassius dapped her up.

"We're gonna go report this to the administrators," Saige announced, grabbing ahold of Chadè and Baxter's arms and leading them down the hallway.

"And we gon' go get somethin' to the cafeteria cause all this suspense got me hungry," Laron began to walk with May down the hall, leaving just Cassius, Adrian, and Najah.

Najah and Cassius gave Adrian an amused look.

"Fuck y'all lookin' at me like that for?"

"'She was gon' die anyway'," Najah mimicked, opening up her door so the three of them could reside inside her room. "Forreal, A?"

"Did I lie?" Adrian ignorantly asked. "Y'all knew the killer was gonna get her stupid ass first!"

Najah scrunched her face up in displeasure. "You ain't got no types of sense."

"You can't be sayin' shit like that, Adrian," Cassius flopped back onto Najah's bed. "Show a lil respect. That could've been one of us!"

"But was it?" Adrian asked rhetorically. "No. So therefore, I don't give one fuck, two fuck, red fuck, blue fuck!"

Cassius mugged him prior to throwing a pillow at his face. "The killer shoulda struck yo' ugly broke ass instead of Breanna!"

"What you think of this one?"

Chyna did a 360 spin in her slim fiery red colored bodycon dress with a smile on her face. Adrian, who was leaned back on her bed with propped up elbows, gave her a similar smile.
