Maddie Ziegler had been jumpy and quiet since receiving the note. Since Maddie didn't really have any friends, she had no one to ask her if she's ok. That's why the person who sent the note chose her, because they knew she would crack.

A week later at school, Maddie saw her art teachers car and it still had the spray paint on it. She smirked as she was highly amused but then remembered that that was the night she got her threat. She stopped smirking and walked away.

Walking down the halls at school, she normally would've walked with her bag on her back and she would've earned scared stares from other students. But today, she walked with her head down and said hey to a handful of people.

Walking into art class, she normally would've strolled in late and said a smart ass comment. The teacher would've put her on detention which she wouldn't show up which gives her more detention. It was the never ending cycle. And if Maddie went in for detention today, she'd probably have at least 200 more to do.

Anyway, Maddie quickly ran in and tick her seat and sat nervously and uncomfortably. "Well, well, well. Look who decided to show up on time today!" Jason her art teacher said. Maddie earned whispers and stares as she started to sketch her design for her clay tea cup set.

She wanted to do something weird and unique, something that drew there attention towards it. She had a perfect idea and set to work for the whole lesson.

After school finished, she saw Kalani talking to the principal looking really worried. She probably just got an A on a test instead of an A+. That's nothing compared to what I'm going through. She thought.

She passed the schools soccer team and spotted that Chloe Luskasiak wasn't there. Maybe someone else can have some attention, she laughed.

And finally, she passed Kendall K Vertes, the queen bee who she really didn't like. Maddie overheard her saying that she needed to go to the police right away. Did somebody steal her lip loss or whatever they're called. She smirked.

Maddie gladly went home and sat her bag on the dining room table. "How was school?" Her mother asked. "Good." She replied biting into a chocolate chip biscuit. "Why don't you eat an apple or something healthier?" Maddie shrugged which had basically been her answer for everything this week. If this threat was true, she wasn't taking her chances.

"What did you learn?" Melissa was trying to make conversation with her daughter since she had the week off work. Mackenzie, her youngest daughter had been feeling ill and Melissa wanted to look after her for she could throw up and nobody would know. Also, their neighbourhood wasn't very safe and she needed to make sure the house was locked and safe.

"Not much." Maddie replied. Maddie finished her biscuit and went into her room. "Can you go talk to Mackenzie? I mean, she hasn't seen any of her friends so it'd be nice if you checked on her," Maddie did as she was asked but she didn't really talk to Kenzie.

All Maddie wanted to do was turn back time to when things were normal. She walked into the bathroom to take a shower and quickly turned on the taps. She tried to go as quick as possible for someone could be watching her and that would be realllllllly creepy.

Turning off the taps, Maddie heard leaves crunching up the side of the house. This is my chance to catch them and finally put this to an end, she thought quickly getting dressed.

Running away from cops and victims of her messes had given her quite the athletic body. She sped out of the bathroom and quietly tip toed into her room. She army crawled on the ground until she reached her window.

She nervously counted to three then shot up and saw a person in all black staring at her. Their face was covered in a black mask and Maddie felt a little light headed.

Maddie stood out the front of their window, watching them aimlessly flirt and kiss. It was enough to make her puke. All of a sudden the blonde headed b**** saw Maddie and screamed.

"What do you want and why are you doing this to me?" She said confidently. The figure looked taken back and didn't know weather or not to run or attack. Maddie ducked just in time as the figure jumped into her room through the window and quickly spun around to face her.

Maddie army crawled through the wet grass and ducked down at the window. "Someone is out there, Nick. They could be a stalker." Maddie jumped through the window and into their room.

A robotic voice answered her question which was another way for the attacker to keep their cover. "It's all for payback, sweetie. I know more about you then you know about yourself." The voice laughed. Maddie breathed deeply.

"You cheated on me Nick, with the one and only, Jaycee Wilkins. Of course I'm going to get back at her," But Nick didn't know what Maddie's revenge plan was.

"Let me tell you your word count then I'll go," the figure stood completely still. "Ok," Maddie said slowly but steadily.

Maddie reached for the pocket knife in her back pocket and went to stab it into the blondes chest. Sadly, Jaycee dodged and ran out of the room.

The figure dropped a piece of paper on the ground then sprinted out the window. They ran until they were out of Maddie's street.

"Maddie, if that's you, let me explain." Nick went to take off Maddie's mask and she saw him pucker his lips slightly. "Don't even go there because we're through!" She screamed and ran out of the pink room which was Jaycee's. Maddie never had another boyfriend after that for Nick and Jaycee told a few too many stories.

The brunette girl, shivering, slowly bent down to pick up the note. She tried not to think about the fact that she basically let the only opportunity to stop this slip through her fingers.

811 words, then you're gone. I suggest you use them wisely, and by that I mean don't go trying to kill people. Kisses.

Maddie drew in a sudden breath. She was dead meat.
