"The author goes to great lengths to establish Hedda Gabler as a strong, proud woman, someone who could never live with the threat of being blackmailed. But Hedda was pushed to take a desperate action. And while she may have seen it as brave, we see it as tragic." Ms Montgomery explained, as she handed out the papers.
When she got back up to the front of the class she stood in front of them, continuing, "What might really be tragic is if some of you don't start taking some notes." Ivy - along with everyone else in the class - opened their books with a huff and began to scribble down some notes. "Sorry. Senior year is not all about skipping classes and dancing for the security cameras at Walmart." She glanced over at Ivy, who grinned back at her. "That's what your weekends are for. You might also want to research some of his other plays and see how they were received at that time." She suggested.
When Emily stood up in a panic, Ivy, Spencer and Aria glanced round at each other in worry.
Hanna didn't take English. She refused to. She wasn't very good at it.
"Emily, is everything all right?" Ella asked.
Emily stuttered out, "C-can I be excused?" Before Ella could answer, Emily bolted out of the classroom, not wasting a second.
The three friends once again took a hurried look at each other, got out their seats, and rushed after her - ignoring miss Montgomery's shouts.
On the way to the bathroom, they ran into a confused Hanna - to which Ivy just grabbed her arm, and dragged her into the bathroom with them.
Emily was scrubbing her hands clean when they stumbled in.
"Em, what's the matter?"
"Talk to us."
Emily slowly spun to face them. Her face was completely blank, and none of the friends understood what was going on.
She pulled out something from behind her back, and handed the item to Aria.
Spencer, Ivy and Hanna peered over at the item Aria held in her dainty hands.
"What is that?" Hanna asked, gesturing to the creepy tooth necklace that Aria held.
As the necklace was snatched by Hanna, Aria scrunched her face up in disgust. "Are those teeth?"
Ivy gagged. She felt nauseous as she stared down at the teeth baring necklace.
"Please just get rid of it." Emily pleaded, watching as her friends passed around the necklace to get a closer look.
Aria wondered aloud, "Are they Allison's?"
"My God, I can't breathe." Emily's breaths were quick and uneven as she couldn't get her mind off the necklace.
"It wasn't enough to steal her bones, now we're gonna get pieces of her delivered to us?" Aria exclaimed.
Spencer spoke up from analysing the teeth, "Guys, they probably aren't even human."
Hanna cut in, "They're totally human!" She claimed.
Ivy raised an eyebrow. "How do you know?"
"Because I worked at a dentist's office." Hanna stated.
Spencer scoffed. "For two days, answering phones."
Hanna nodded enthusiastically. "Yeah, and there were teeth everywhere. Even the friggin' bathroom key was shaped like a cuspid."
When a chatter of voices were making their way along the hallway, the five girls all freaked out and squeezed into the one cubicle together.
