9. Not ready to lose someone.

Walking through the halls of the school, was Mal, Max, Dustin, and Steve.

Dustin was talking to Robin on his walkie, vastly walking to keep up with Mal and max.

"Wait, what are you doing?" Mal heard Robin ask through the walkie.

"Breaking and entering the school to retrieve confidential and extremely personal files." Dustin quickly said.

"Can you repeat that?" Robin asked through the tiny talking device.

"Just get your ass over here, stat. And we'll explain everything." Dustin told them, slamming the antenna down.

The two girls made it to Mrs. Kelly's room, the two boys following behind. Max was about to put the key in the Key hole, before Mal stopped her.

"But what if we get caught?" Mal whisper-yelled to her girlfriend. She had her hand in front of max's, who was about to put the key in.

"Mal, we'll be fine." Max said, putting her hand over Mal's, trying to comfort her. "Trust me."

Mal took a deep breath, before taking her hand out from in front of Max's, allowing her to unlock the door.

Max unlocked the door and grabbed Mal's hands before walking inside. Max and mal shined their lights, looking around.

Before mal could look around much, max was pulling her to the cabinet with files.

Max looked through the files, Mal looking with her. Max stopped at Chrissy's file, while Mal stopped at Fred's.

What was Fred doing seeing Mrs. Kelly.

"Holy shit." Mal breathed out.

"What? Did you find it?" Steve asked, shining the flashlight over to her.

"Yeah, but not only was Chrissy seeing Mrs. Kelly, Fred was too." Mal told them, holding up the file.

The room went silent as everyone looked at each other.

If Fred and Chrissy were both seeing Mrs. Kelly, and they both died... were the other people that see Mrs.Kelly die too?

Was Mrs.Kelly the reason they were dying? Was mrs.Kelly the connection to something with vecna?

Are Max or Mal gonna die?...

•••

Sitting at the table, max was looking through files as Mal sat beside her, looking at them, too.

Even if Mal didn't know what exactly she was looking for, she still looked for clues.

As Mal looked through the files with max, she noticed the two having the same "symptoms".

Both of vecna's victims had nosebleeds, headaches, and nightmares. They had also both experienced a traumatic experience.

Mal had the same symptoms.

She had nosebleeds. Not just her powers. She had bad headaches, and always had nightmares.

But she wasn't vecna's next victim. Her or max. They couldn't be.

She felt her breathing get heavy at the thought, the thought of her or max being next.

Mal looked over to the girl beside her, wanting to ask her if she was okay. She looked over to the girl, seeing her look intensely at the file.

Then, she saw Max's face drop. Her eyes zoned out, looking into nothing.

Mal looked back down at the paper, reading all the symptoms again.
