It was monday and Blake had just arrived at Springwood highschool. He walked towards the front foors when a reporter looking girl stepped in front of him. A guy followed her with a camera.

"Hello. I'm Eliza Parker from Springwood Reports. I want to interview you about the recent killings that have taken place in last couple of days?" The woman said. She had brown hair and looked about 25.

Blake looked at her, "You're a little late." He started to walk off when she stepped in front of him again.

"I'm not late. No one will answer my questions." She said.

"Sorry. No comment." Blake rolled his eyes.

Eliza got frustrated. She's been following everyone around asking questions looking like a total doof. It looked like if she wanted answers, she'd have to ask the sherrif.

Eliza walked to her car and got in it. The camera guy followed her and got in the car as well. She pulled out and drove to the sherrif's office.

She got out of the car and walked into the office.

"Hello?" She called out. No one was in there. The camera guy turned on the camera and they walked to the back of the office.

They walked into a room. There was a round table and it had pictures of everyone who had been killed.

Mark Rapid.
Stephanie Gilbert.
Zack Burns.

She looked at Zack's paper. The police haven't announced to the public about his death yet. Well, she was there and so was the camera.

She turned to the camera.

"Eliza Parker here. I have just walked into the Springwood Police Department looking for the sherrif. No one was in here so I decided to let myself in. We have found some interesting things," she turned to the table and picked up Zack's paper, "Zack Burns, 16, was killed October 16th, 2016. He was thrown out a window and fell to his death after being stabbed in the back and stomach. Why hasn't the police announced this yet? Well, they don't have to, because I did."

Eliza knew she would get in major trouble for this, but she would do anything to get the main headline.

Blake walked into his first period class. The word about Zack spread fast, but Blake didn't know yet. Blake sat in his usual seat and looked behind him at Zack's seat.

Hazel walked in. She, however, did hear about Zack. She sat in her seat. Hazel told Blake about Zack.

Blake didn't believe her.

"No," he laughed, "you're lying."

Hazel shook her head, "I wish I was, Blake."

Blake turned back around and stared ahead. He couldn't feel anything. Zack? Why Zack?

Blake's phone rang. Hazel looked at him. Blake looked at Hazel answered it.

"Hear the good news?" The distorted voice said.

"Why? Why him?" Blake asked.

"Because he was special to you. Wasn't he?"

"Why are you doing this? Why are you killing my friends?"
