Lexy threw her hand up and used the flashlight as a weapon, hitting someone.
"Ow! My god!" The person screeched.
"N-nick?" Lexy asked as she turned around to see Nick. "What is wrong with you?! I thought you were Tommy!"
"Well, I'm not, so you can calm down" Nick answered as he looked around trying to keep an eye out.
Lexy took a breath and stepped towards him, grabbing his face she started checking for any injuries. When she found none, she looked at him in the eye and pulled him for a short kiss.
"We need to go the Mess Hall; we can't stay here." Lexy said once she backed away from him. Nick nodded and took her hand as they walked.
They started walking and suddenly bumped into Ziggy, who was frantically breathing.
"What are you doing out here?" Nick asked her panicked.
"He's here! He's here!" Ziggy stated in short breaths.
"Come on!" Lexy grabbed Nick and Ziggy's arm and pulled them towards the closest cabin to them. Science and Nature.
They ran and when they finally got to the cabin, Nick quickly opened the door letting the girls run in first as he waited and closed and locked the door. The girls quickly ran behind a covered table and slid down, seconds later Nick joining them as the only thing you could hear was their shallow breathing as they tried to keep quiet.
"Did we lose him?" Ziggy whispered.
"Yeah, I think so. Are you ok? You hurt?" Nick answered and then asked worriedly while turning to look at Ziggy and the blood on her clothes.
"It's not my blood. It's Gary's." Ziggy answered as she now looked at Nicks clothes. "And yours?" She asked worried.
"Um... Sean, Jesse, Rod, Stacey." Nick said as he stuttered and looking down. Lexy felt sick so many... Shadysiders... wait.
"It's the curse." Lexy said finally speaking since they got there. "They are all Shadysiders. The curse is continuing." She finished as she realizes what was happening at the camp.
"No, it's, uh, it's just some psycho." Nick said trying to make it seems like what was said was false. Lexy looked at him, betrayal written all over her face as she glared at him.
