Present time:

The halls consumed in darkness, as I sprinted down the corridors trying to find any exit, any way to escape her. Eerieshadows were spread across the rooms, enhancing the panic that was pushing itsway up my throat and wrapping around my heart. Atthis time, the empty school looked like something out of a post-apocalypticmovie, bathed in obscurity and surrounded by the ever-growing feeling thatsomething was going to jump out at you. 

I charged around a corner, only to find she was already there, blocking my path, with a rounder's bat swinging casually in her hand. My eyes widened in terror as she began sauntering towards me, raising the bat slightly and smirking at me with a glint of something psychopathic in her eyes. It was as if she was looking forward to the torture I knew she was going to put me through.

"Your just in time for the party, Key, and you're the guest of honour." She cackled, getting closer as I started backing away. I turned and prepared myself to run in the opposite direction, but her claw-like fingernails dug into my arm and she squeezed it, causing me to cry out as she drew blood.

"Let go!" I cried out, trying to wrestle myself from her grip but it was no use; I had underestimated how strong she really was.

"Now why would I let you go? This is just the build up to the main event!" She gripped tighter and began dragging me from the school towards a blacked out SUV that was waiting in the parking lot.

"P-please! I'll do anything! Just let me go!" I sobbed as tears gushed from my eye sockets and snail-trailed down my face. I squirmed and resisted her as she hauled me towards the car and tried to shove me in, but I was screaming and fighting against her as hard as I could, trying to draw as much attention to us as possible. My captor obviously didn't like this so raised the bat above her head, before letting it fly. The bat whacked against my skull and I was instantly lost to unconsciousness.
