(MADHULIKA'S POV)

I just learnt in gruesome detail how Anannya got a weird hair cut and how Anaushka became the apple of EVERY boy's eye. I also heard about the abnormal apperance and qualities of the students. So yes it was a warm and cheery welcome!

But my friends' obersations weren't wrong. I began to notice things too like almost every student had a tatoo, and words like blood, morphing, spices were used in conversations like they were talking about a cake recpie. What had we gotten ourself into?

My first day went smoothly, if you consider hearing about paranoid. Theories my friends came up with, normal. The very next day was the first working day. Eveyone was busy preparing. I had a roomate who I hadn't seen all day. And my friends seem to be going through their own bullsh*t.

Even still, walking around alone seemed like sucide so I didn't step out of my room. I wasn't the type to be freaked out easily, but from what I heard, even I didn't want to take a chance.

"So what's you schedule for Monday's." Anannya asked.

" I have English, then Chemistry, Arts, Maths and lunch. After that Physics, History, Geography and last is PE."

"Looks, like we all have PE everyday." Sneha noted.

"Who do you have English with?" Anannya asked.

"Mr. Wills." I answered.

"Awesome me too." Anannya exclaimed.

"Damn I have Maths first! How will I survive?" Cried Anushka. We all laughed.

After we complained about out schedules and figured we couldn't complain any longer. Everyone decided to take me on a tour.

"First stop caferteria!" Annonced Anushka.

And so that's how we eneded up in a long caferteria line, with me at the back. Soon other people joined. Anannya who was infornt of me turned around to chat.

"Psst, hottie's, looking at you." She whispered in my ear.

"Where?" I asked and turned to look and slammed into someone in a leather jacket. I got my answer! I just bumped into the most striking guy I'd ever met. His dark eyes studied me for a minute and I went still under his gaze.

"Sorry." I managed.

"Yeah. It's fine." Then he looked away. But I couldn't. he had a perfect jaw line and a sweet, aluring smell! He was the definition of regal. With high cheekbones and poised stance he felt like a daydream. I felt overwhelmed. I stopped when Anannya pinched me. Anushka and Sneha seemed to be staring too. But either he didn't notice or he pretended not to.I quickly averted my gaze. For come reason, I was blushing. a lot!

We found an empty table.

"What was that? Or who was that?" I asked to no one in particular. No one knew.

"The best thing that's happened to us since we came?" Anannya answered.

"But he was looking at Madhulika for a long time."Anushka noted. Everyone agreed.

"Me?" I asked in surprise. But he really was sexy though.

While heading back Ananya asked to accompnay her to the library.

"So late?" I asked, I was well aware how dangerous this place was. I'd experienced Paris' taunts first hand.

"Yeah, but the book is due today, it'll be over due. You guys just wait here. I'll come back really quickly. And three were left standing near the classrooms.

"Hey, I really need to use the washroom. Someome must come." Sneha said.

"But we can't leave Anannya."

"But it's urgent." It really did look urgent.

"Then lets do this. We all will accompany Sneha to the washroom and come back to pick Anannya up. I'll message her." Anushka suggested. All of us agreed. So we set off to accompany Sneha to the washroom. It might seem weird to some people, but after what I'd heard, I think its the most normal course of action.

We were coming back to pick Anannya up, when we heard a scream. Anannya's scream. We ran as fast as we. And saw a horrified Anannya coming in our direction.

"Guys run!" She yelled.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"That guy we saw. The hot one. He is a serial killer!"

"What?" I asked.

"I saw him with bloody hands!" She excalimed.

"Anannya really?"Anushka asked.

"Not joking guys!"

"Fine, we'll go check it out. Come on Madhulika." Sneha beconed me.

"No!" Anannya yelled. But Sneha, Anushka and I were already heading in that direction.

Suddenly someone one fell out of the bushes. It was the boy from before. Another boy launched himself at him.

When we saw what they really were... We screamed!
