Piper drove me to school. We didn't speak till the second stoplight.
"Do you wanna stop at Mickeys?"
"What for?" I questioned.
"She made breakfast and has some leftovers for us."
"Oh..." I sighed. "I guess we could stop for a bite."She took a left and started driving to Mickeys. She pulled into her driveway. I slowly walked up to the beautifully natured bushes revealing the door. After Piper knocked three times, footsteps were leading up to the door. I looked around trying to avoid contact. Mickey opened the dark oak door, and greeted us in.
"There's waffles, bacon, eggs, and orange juice on the buffet."
I helped myself to some waffles and Oj. I didn't perfect bacon and eggs.
After waiting for what felt like century's , Piper finally drove us to school. I only ha five minutes till I was tardy! We rushed out the door. Piper started the car and drove off.She pulled into the schools parking lot. And she parked in a near opening near the entrance. I darted towards the freshman side, as Piper disappears into the senior side. Two minutes. I have two minutes to get to Mrs. Breakers class. I stumbled to insert my code. The bell rang for tardy. I grabbed what I had and left.
When I walked into Mrs. Breakers classroom. Something was off. Mrs. Breakers was on the floor. No sign of any oxygen running through her heart. My first instinct was to scream but nothing came out.
I scramble to the classroom phone and dial nine one one. They made me describe the scene, as they were sending help immediately. Where was the rest I the class? Did they just not show up?Finally the police arrive at the school. The office located the rooms of the body. Officers demanded we evacuate the school incase of a hunter still in the building. I wanted to stay and investigate but they ushered me out.

Me and the rest of James Lincoln High were standing at the entrance of the school, in the brisk cold. I shivered looking for my best friend Delaney. She texted me a picture of someone outside of Mrs. Breakers room with a knife. Clues?----------------------------------------------
I searched left and right. Delaney was no where to be seen. Could she still be inside? Now I panicked. I was screaming for her but no response. I tried to text her, but there was no reception. Shit. She could be dead , like Mrs. Breakers. He could've spotted her took her and killed her.I pushed through the large crowd of high schoolers. Eventually I made my way to the entrance. Police tried to stop me but I pushed through. Dashing to the upstairs hallway.
Where I asked myself. Where? She couldn't be far. I looked back as officers were racing towards me. I darted to the janitors closet and locked the door.It's been five minutes complete silence. I had calmed down and caught my breathe again. I tried to text Delaney hoping for better service. I watched the little sending bar. I waited. The second I blink the send bar disappeared. A little word pops under my text box. "Sent" but no response. I slowly touched the lock and turned it at a ninety degree angel. The officers still there.
"Ma'am, you have put yourself in danger you could've got seriously hurt."
" My apologies. I was searching for my best friend. I feel she is the next victim of this school mystery." I muttered.
" And what makes you think I that?"
I showed the policemen the image Delaney sent me. They said they will search every room of the building."Thank you officer!"
"No problem kid, now go find your family to make sure your safe."
