''Yan! I killed Yuna!

Sana's hands are shaking. I send the beam of light to the lock so it opens the back door. We enter the kitchen. We walk through the cafeteria. Sana pushes the door, and we walk towards the classrooms.

It would be really nice if we were here for a school day. The dark corridors.
The sounds of the shots destroying Yuna's chest.

And I see those eyes losing movement. Losing her life!

''Yan!''

The name resonates. Quick steps, hurried breaths. Sana points her cell phone light at the ground and starts running in front of me.

''Yan! I killed Yuna! I killed her!

She continues to run. I run without taking my eyes off her. I have a feeling of something on my back.

''The seminar room is open,' she says, stopping in her tracks.

''I'm here.'' Yan is standing in the doorway, looking at us. A tall, thin girl who is scary. She is in uniform, well made up, hair combed, leaving a question in my head: Very different from what I saw of her these days.

And along with its tall shadow on the wall, it comes to us.

''I killed Yuna!'' Sana repeats. Her thin face, when she smiles, looks more like a skull. Dried blood stains the nostrils, mouth, and chin.

Yan touches Sana's jacket, checking. ''Where's the pistol?''

''I shot Yuna. I pierced her chest! '' Sana laughs again.

''And how do you feel?'' Yan asks peacefully, with all the calm that has returned to live within her.

''I feel soulless.'' Now Sana's smile disappears.

I look at Yan's smile and I am overcome by a strange shiver.


''I smell... rotten eggs, or... Where does that come from?'', asks Sana.

''It must be from the laboratory,'' replies Yan. ''Did anyone see you coming here?''

''No! We took a dark alley. I shot Yuna! They're going to catch me, they're going to catch me at any moment! The police...'' Sana's voice remains alarmed.

Yan holds my shoulders. ''Did you see if Yuna died, Da-hye? ''

''I-I saw.''

''And how it was?''

''H-horrible!'' My voice is still dead too. I lower my head and look into her eyes, and the image comes to my mind.

Yan reaches down and grabs my chin. Her eyes have a magnetism. ''Take my hand if you're scared.'' Her hand gently touches mine, drawing me into the seminary.

''I really enjoyed draining her.'' Sana closes the door. As it closes, it's as if the darkness wants to trap the three of us here, under the watchful eye of the oak-shaped crucifix on the wall behind the stage.

Maybe it's something else.

We cross the canyon of the white chairs. ''This place has a strong smell of rotten eggs.'' I hold my breath.

''Was someone with her, Sana?''

"Mio."

''Mio?''

''I don't know. Damn it! Mio! Sana is in a big hurry, she doesn't even use a ladder, she puts her hands on the floor, pushes her body forward and climbs onto the stage, pointing the side light of her cell phone at us.
