With the ritual disrupted, Ava felt a moment of relief, but the threat wasn’t over. The Circe Society members regrouped, anger and desperation sparking in their eyes.

“We can’t let them win!” the dark-haired boy shouted, rallying the others. “We have to finish what we started!”

Ava’s heart raced. “We have to find a way to stop them for good. If we don’t, they’ll only come back stronger.”

“Let’s expose their secrets,” Ethan suggested, determination flooding his voice. “If we can show the school what they’re trying to do, we can stop this once and for all.”

“Agreed,” Lila added, her eyes fierce. “We need to gather evidence and confront the administration. They can’t let this happen.”

As they devised their plan, Ava felt the weight of the past pressing down on her. The shadows of those who had come before were still here, and they wouldn’t be silenced until the truth was revealed.

The trio split up, gathering information and preparing to present their findings to the school administration. Time was of the essence—the next meeting was scheduled for the following day, and they needed to act quickly.

Ava poured over records and notes late into the night, piecing together the connections between the Circe Society, the dark rituals, and the tragedies that had unfolded at Veil High. Each revelation fueled her determination, but it also deepened the weight of the responsibility resting on her shoulders.

When the sun rose, Ava felt a renewed sense of purpose. They would confront the administration, expose the dark underbelly of Veil High, and put an end to the cycle of tragedy that had haunted the school for far too long.
