After learning more about The Grin, I started to collect everything about my dreams, especially ones that either include The Grin or Included my friends
In my 4th period which is english I sit next to a large window that shows the outside of the school. I was doing my Book test when I saw a man, He was standing outside waving, I didn't think much of it because I had bigger problems. But then he revealed his big, wide, open, smile.
I took out my phone and snapped a picture, hoping my teacher wouldn't see me, I looked at the picture and noticed something, he was holding an object I didn't know what it was, but he had it in one hand and it was dusty

Lunch came around and I immediately went to Bryan. I started to show him the picture
"I don't know what it is, David."
"Maybe it's like, Foreshadowing something."
"Wait, Zoom in on his hand and brighten the image".
I did what he told me and what we found shocked me
"It's a Hammer."
"What kind?"
"Sledgehammer, it looks like."
"So look out for a sledgehammer."
Ever since then I have been thinking who is next?
I looked around my room to find if there was any things that could kill me ever since Ed's Death, I've been so paranoid.
I went to sleep.
Here comes another creepy dream
Gary is in a Home Depot and is looking around for a box of nails and The Grin is dressed as an employee and tells Gary
"This way."
He then picks up a sledgehammer and hits Gary in the face. With blood pouring out of Gary's nose he hits him again and...where did his head go?
I woke up and called Bryan
"Bryan it's David, I had another dream Gary Mason, he's next."
"Ok I'll call Gary. How did he die?"
"Sledgehammer, just as we saw in the picture."
"Ok, Where were you?
"Home Depot."
"Was The Grin wearing.anything different then the last time you saw him?"
"He was wearing a Home Depot employee outfit."
"Hardware. This has everything to do with Hardware, I'll call him and tell him stay away from it."
"Wait isn't he helping with the renovation to the art room?
"Oh sh*t you're right, I'll tell him to cancel for an emergency."
"Ok I'll get ready and meet you at the school."
"Good luck,David."
I got to the school and met Bryan in the art room, talking to Gary
"...So you have to go."
"If there was an emergency don't you think my mom would tell me that my dad got mauled by a badger?"
"You told him that?"
He gave me a "what did you want me to do?" look
"Y'all are just some liars."
I noticed that there is a ladder that was hanging on a wall. A guy threw a hammer at the wall and it fell on a nail gun it shot 10 nails, one of which hit Bryan in the leg and 3 hit Gary in the chest and head, killing him. Dammit!
