   On the fifth day, everyone was searching the house for new things that they hadn't seen before. But nothing was found. In the basement, it was the same piles of boxes with stacks and stacks of old letters and photos; on the first floor, it was the same kitchen, red room, empty dining room and living room with covered furniture. The second floor had many rooms with beds and a desk in each room, same as always.

Later that day, everyone was in their rooms hanging out with their friends. In one room, Georgia, Emma and Mila were sitting on the floor talking. "I'm gonna go get a snack from the kitchen," Emma told her friends. Georgia nodded. "See you soon," she said. Emma left the room. Back in Avery, Autumn and Kiana's room: "I'm gonna go check what everyone is doing, I'll be right back," Kiana said. She left the room.

In the kitchen, Emma was searching the cupboards and found some Cheerios. "Yummy," she said, reaching for the box. When her hand touched the box, she screamed. There was a knife in her back. She had been stabbed. Back in the bedroom where Georgia and Mila were: "I wonder what's taking Emma so long," Mila wondered. Georgia nodded. "It doesn't take that long to get a snack." Then they heard a scream. "That's probably just one of the boys downstairs playing on the VR," Mila dismissed. Georgia nodded. They kept waiting.

"I'm back," Kiana announced, entering the room. "Geez, that sure took a while, by the way what was that scream?" Avery asked. Kiana nodded. "Oh, that was me, I saw a gigantic spider in the basement." Autumn nodded slowly, "Okay..."

Mila and Georgia went down to the kitchen to check what Emma was doing. "Emma?" Georgia called. Then she gasped. There was a puddle of blood and a knife on the ground. But there was no sign of Emma. "Emma?" Georgia called again. "She's gone," said an eerie voice from behind her and Mila. They turned around but nobody was there. "Hello?" Mila called. There wasn't an answer. "Helloooo?" she repeated. Still, no answer. "Answer me, is anyone there?" Mila called for the third time. This time, the voice returned. "Your friend's dead. You'll never see her again." They turned around to see Cheerios on the counter and ate them.

Today I was walking down the hallway, I walked up to the murderer, I was confident that it was him, "Frank, it is time for you to stop killing people," I told him. Frank looked confused. I was mistaken, surprisingly, the murderer wasn't Frank.
