"This is some real bullshit" ethan snaps as he throws his book onto the floor. The whole class went silent.

Ethan chuckles awkwardly and covers the side of his face with his hand. (Bangchan who?)

Aiden snorts. "Mind your own business" Ethan snaps. Aiden chuckles.
The whole classroom goes silent.

A girl taps Ethan on his shoulder. Ethan looks at her. "What?" He snaps.
The girl looks at Aiden. "Ethan, why are you being friends with this..  dude?" She asks.

Ethan snickers. "Why wouldn't I?" He asks. The girl goes silent and continues working on her writing. Ethan looks at Aiden. "Well that's awkward" he says.

The classroom slowly fits up with noise again.
Ethan grins.

"Wait, I still have a murder case to solve" Ethan suddenly says and grabs his notebook.

The teacher sighs loudly as she realizes she's forgotten.

She suddenly gets an idea.

"Hey, do you guys remember that one unsolved case from less than a year ago?" She asks. Ethan looks up. "Yes" he says. The classroom looks at the teacher expectantly.

The teacher clears her throat. "Well. You know that it happened at our school then?" She asks. Ethan nods. "Five kids" he mumbles.

"Alec, Ava, Cleo, Jason and Mavis." The teacher says. "Funny how these exact kids were all five highly schizophrenic." She continued.

Alec raises an eyebrow. "What's funny about that?" He asks. The teacher shrugs.

(I guess it does make sense though. Alec, Ava, Cleo, Jason and Mavis were the only ones that saw those things and experienced them.)
(Mainly Alec and Jason)

"Have you heard the theories about it?" The teacher asks. Ethan shakes his head. "one of them was actually very Ill. Like, mentally. More than the rest. Which led her to get more cannibalistic desires." The teachers explains.

Ethan grins. "Are you implying that she killed off them all and then herself?" He asks. The teacher shrugs. "Just a theory" she says and sits down at her desk.

"Teach, what do you think about the previous Case? The casey case?" Ethan asks. The teacher shivers and looks at Aiden. "I'm not sure... but if we have to believe the 'witness's evidence, the murderer might actually be among us."

Aiden snickers. "Like among us" he whispers. Ethan grins. "And who may that be?" He asks.
The teacher turns red. "A quite good looking student of mine.. no- no names." She says quickly.

Aiden blinks.

Ethan frowns.

The teacher clears her throat. "Uhm, but i have a lot of good looking students, could be anyone" she says.

Aiden rolls with his eyes.
"Let's be for real now" he says. The teacher sighs. "Thoughts on the murderer?" She asks the class.

"HE'S A BASTARD!"

"DESERVES TO DIE!"

"HAS TO ROT IN HELL!!"

ethan slowly looks around at the people screaming.

Those weren't his classmates.

Those weren't his classmates.

Those weren't his classmates.

Those weren't his classmates.

Those weren't his classmates.

Those weren't his classmates.

Those weren't his classmates.

Those.
Weren't.
His.
Classmates.

Those.
       Weren't.
                His.
                  Classmates.

Ethan sighs and looks at Aiden. Aiden wasn't Aiden anymore. The place were Aiden had sat just a moment before was now taken by an cold blooded murderer.

Ethan looks at him in fear.

Was this real?

R
        E
A
        L
I
      T
Y....

Ethan looks at his hands. His fingertips started bleeding. His nails start to chip. Bit for bit his nails get destroyed by nothingness. His nails burst.

He screams. His skin starts dripping off his fingers and falls into his lap. Ethan holds his hand to his chest. He cries out in pain.

"Ethan?"

A voice says.

He couldn't answer.

"ETHAN FOR GODS SAKE I WILL THROW YOU THROUGH A WINDOW" aiden yells in his ears.

He hears a very high pitched ringing in his ears. An ear bleeding ringing.

Ethan feels warm water coming out of his ears.

He holds up his hands to feel. He slowly opens his eyes and looks at his fingers.

Covered in

B       L      O      O        D.

Ethan gasps.

"What-?" He mumbles and looks at his fingers again. They were covered in blood. He looks around. He was on the classroom floor.

Shit.
That's embarrassing.

Ethan quickly stands up, In the attempt of doing so, he stumbles backwards and hits his head on the windowsill. He tries not to burst out into tears.

He swore he could feel a crack running through his skull.

He panicked for a moment. His vision gets blurry. He recognizes Aiden's face hovering above him. He hears a faint;'Ethan..'
