Strange Message

Chapter 3
Strange Message

Jamie walked home silently, he had a lot on his mind. Was this a one time murder or would this killer strike again? Were they only targeting faculty or were students in danger as well? Were they really connected to Ace? 

He hardly had time to ponder on these answers as he arrived home. The downstairs window was open. It wasn’t very alarming, sometimes he and his mom forgot to close windows before they went to bed. Besides, it just made getting inside a lot easier.

He silently slipped into the window, he had gotten good at breaking into places (even if it was his own home). Everything looked the same, the window he climbed into led to the living room.

The lights were all off but he knew where he was going. He had memorised the parts of the floorboards that creaked and made sure not to step on them as he carefully but quickly headed upstairs to his room. It was as messy as he had left it. He had clothes and paper scattered around the room that he couldn’t be bothered to clean.

The black plaid bed cover was hardly on the twin sized bed in the corner. The dark oak nightstand had a lot of knife marks on. Similarly the grey wallpaper had cuts as well. He had a small built-in closet, it was enough to hold a good amount of clothes (although half of the clothes from it were on the floor. He didn’t bother to get changed despite how late it was.

He planned on going straight to sleep but thought he’d check his laptop before. That’s when he saw a notification from Discord. It was only a few hours ago. The username wasn’t one he recognised. “Sword?” He read out loud as he opened the message.

Sword: “Be careful darling, you have no idea what you’re getting into ;)”

He read the message a few times, having zero idea what it could mean. Who the hell was Sword? Obviously it wasn’t this person's real name.

Jamie: “Not funny. Who is this?”

He typed back, he really wasn’t in the mood for this weirdo to be messing with him, it had been a long day.

Sword: “That’s for me to know and you to hopefully find out! But not now, maybe in a few weeks…Still gotta get everything sorted out!”

…What? This guy…Or girl? Whatever they were, they weren’t making sense at all. He was too tired to think straight about this so he shut his laptop, throwing it onto the floor and attempting to go to sleep.

RING RING RING! RING RING RING!

Jamie went to punch his alarm clock but his fist collided with the wooden top of the nightstand, sending an unusual amount of pain through his hand. He shot up from the pain. Right, the alarm clock had gotten broken last week so he threw it out

RING RING RING! Where the hell was that coming from? He stood up and located the ringing. It was from his phone, which was under one of many shirts on the floor. He picked up the phone and declined the call, then he saw a Discord notification from Sword. (He had discord linked to his phone).

He sighed and opened the message

Sword: “Hurry up dear or you’ll be late and I don’t think I could stand being in school without seeing your pretty face <3”
