Cyril went to the school still shocked that the girl in the footage was the Sister of the last victim Ashley, he couldn't stop thinking about the footage but then he saw a face that he hadn't seen for a long time.
"Ron! you're back!!" Cyril says shocked "what are you doing?? you've been absent for 2 days"
"just had to deal with some family stuff, What's up with you? you look like you got no Sleep?" Ron asks
Cyril quickly filled Ron in on the investigation and the recent events. Ron, deeply concerned about his Girlfriend Ashley, decided to join them in the investigation.
Cyril and Ron then went on to look for Mitch and Steve and they found them both in the gym Shocked.
"what are you guys doing he-" as he was about to finish his sentence Cyril immediately stopped because he was shocked as he saw Ashley's dead body hanging around.
Mitch then ran away on fear and Cyril chased her
after a while Cyril saw Mitch sitting on a bench crying, he sat next to her, offering silent support.
"it's not fair!" Mitch says
"we were supposed to save them" Mitch continued, crying
"we will,” Cyril said softly, his hand brushing against hers. “we can’t give up now.”
they shared a silent moment together.
After School Cyril, Mitch and Steve all went to the library but Ron also followed them
Ron despite his grief offered the three to let him help them and suggested looking for patterns in the victim's lives, and we know right now is the victims are seemingly related to each other but why would the killer do that? Steve examined the Victim's body and he confirms that it's not a suicide but a murder.
Mitch suggested that while looking for clues and patterns they should also take a look for the peoples that is somewhat related to Ashley as they might become the next victim of the Killer especially Ron as he was the boyfriend of Ashley and also helping the three at the investigation.
as they pore over the informations they've gathered in the library, Mitch suddenly noticed a note slipped into Ashley's notebook, which reads "you're next".
"why didn't she tell me about this?" Ron says, his voice was trembling in anger and sadness.
"we need to split up again" Mitch says.
"Ron and Steve, you two should go talk to Ashley's friends and ask if they know anything. Cyril and I will continue to look through the school's incident reports for any clues." Mitch continued
as Cyril and Mitch searched through the reports, they found out that several of the missing students had reported feeling followed or threatened before their disappearances.
"i still don't understand why the perpetrator has been doing this" Cyril says, confused
meanwhile, Steve and Ron where talking to one of Ashley's friends in the càfe, the friend says that she has seen a shadowy figure near Ashley's house multiple times before but she thought it was just an Imagination.
as Steve and Ron leave the cafe, they were ambushed by a group of masked men. Steve was knocked unconscious but Ron was forcefully dragged into a van.
Ron tried to scream for help but his mouth was covered by one of the kidnappers as the van speeds away leaving Steve on the road unconscious.

"Steve and Ron are sure taking their time" Mitch says
"yeah im starting to get worried about them" Cyril replied
"we should call them" Mitch says, worried about the two
Mitch tried to call their numbers but they got no response, panic sets in as they realized something must have gone terribly wrong.
