A New Killer's Diary

Chapter 11 - Academic Path

    The First Dream... Is it related to the Obstacle Maze Competition? I only have to discover what the second dream is about... I never had a younger sister... The first one was something like this:

  "Run! You gotta run! This is the first time you're doing something like this! So don't look back! Believe in your instincts! Believe in yourself! Believe in them. Only they can help you win! You can win! The time is almost out, but you're probably the one with the most points so don't give up! DON'T GIVE UP!"

   I had an idea...
   - What if we all team up? - I proposed.
   - That would be a great idea! - Said Caroline.
   - So, where should we go next? - Asked David.
   - I know a cool obstacle! - Said Emma...

   - Woah! This place is so dark! - Said Butterfly.
   - Yeah, Bella. Maybe because it is underground and the lights are off...
   - Don't answer me like that you naughty boy!
   - Ok! Ok! Sorry... - Apologized Cole, turning on the lights.
   - Ok, so tell me what you want to do and the type of materials you want to use. - Said Butterfly.
   - We have paint cans, some ingredients reserved for the party, and gasoline.
   - Oh! Wanna put this place on fire?
   - What? Are you crazy? I said I wanted to ruin the parties, not my house! - Said Cole.
   - Do you have balloons? - Asked Butterfly.
   - No, but I think the store on the other side of the street sells packs of 100 balloons.
   - Ok, how many people are in the party approximately? - Asked Butterfly.
   - I still don't know it...
   Both of them went up straight to the second floor.
   - We can count a good amount of heads from here. Good Luck!
   - Hey! Why are you leaving me with the boring task? - Asked Butterfly.
   - Because you're the better at counting between us. I don't even remember how to count... 1, 67, 43, 732, 1000! For me it is 1000, now I want to hear yours...

   - Welcome to the Dance-Off Obstacle!!! - Introduced Emma.
   - No way I am going on this! - Exclaimed David.
   - Don't be such a loser. It's an easy 100 points...
   - 100 points? I'll do it then...
   Spoiler Alert: "Emma was lying."
   We joined the obstacle.
   - Welcome! Are you ready to shake your bodies? 'Cause I sure am! - He said. The game is simple! Try to copy my choreography for 3 minutes. If you commit 5 mistakes, then you're out.
   The music started. David was the only one off rhythm. He was the first one being eliminated. Emma was getting everything right like she was a mirror of the staff member. Caroline was pretty good too, like she was predicting every staff member's move. And then there's me, the one who only know a dance because of that day that I lost a deal with Emma. In the end, I managed to complete the obstacle with only 4 mistakes. Emma was flawless and Caroline committed one mistake.
   - It was a waste of time! - Exclaimed David.
   - Speak for yourself! - Said the girls.
   - Well, where should we go now? - I asked.
   - My turn to choose! - Said Caroline.

   - So... How many heads did you count? -  Asked Cole.
   - You were right... - Answered Butterfly.
   - What do you mean I was right? - Asked Cole, confused.
   - They are 1000! - She Answered.
   - WHAT?
   - Guess next time you're the one who will count... - Said Butterfly leaving Cole.
   - Wait, Bella! Where are you going? - Asked Cole.
   - To the store, we still need the balloons! - She answered.
   - Wait for me!

   We arrived at the Spelling Bee Station.
   - Welcome, my dear students! - Said the staff member.
   - Hello, Professor Aiden! I didn't know you were a staff member. - I said.
   - Yup! The Philosophy teacher is in a station, but I don't remember which one... - Said Caroline.
   - Well then, who wants to step in first?
   - Oliver! - The three said.
   And there I went, falling in their little plans...
   - The word is... Mischievous!
   - You got it! - Screamed Emma.
   - M-i-s-c-h-i-e-v-o-u-s! - I spelled.
   - Correct! Now who's the next?
