The next day, Alfred, Katy, and Carlos head to school, where the Halloween Party would later be thrown. Alfred personally hated school, as if for Katy and her brother, Carlos, they loved school.
(Alfred) Katy why are we here again?
(Katy) Can I skip that question?
(Alfred) All I think school is, is a hole of hopes and dreams being crushed. Yep, that's what I think.
(Katy) Alfred, why are you acting like this? You're never this negative.
(Alfred) ...Do you know me?
(Katy) Come on, we're gonna be late for History so hurry up!
(Alfred) Ugh. I need to fix you. At least you're not like-
(Chloe) Hello losers.
(Alfred) Hello Chloe, how's brat level today?
(Chloe) Well if you keep talking, it'll be high.
(Katy) We're gonna be late for class, keep moving.
(Chloe) Says who, nerd?
(Alfred) Back off Chloe!
(Chloe) If I would choose, I would be an Umbra, so I can leave this place. But I can't, because I'm not, "special". I don't care though because I don't have to look at their disgusting faces.
(Alfred) They're not real!
(Chloe) Right, well darling, I'll see you later! *giggles*
(Alfred) She's a jerk.
(Katy) You gotta stop saying that Umbras are fake! They might be real, and watching you right now!
(Alfred) Let's just get this day over with.
(Katy) You're not the same girl I knew last year.
(Alfred) Because I'm not!
(Katy) Let's just get to class.
Meanwhile in the Library, Carlos was trying to look up books about Umbras, Forest Borns, and Ghosts. Had no luck so far.
(Carlos) Come on, come on, where are they?
(Isabella) What'cha lookin' for pal?
(Carlos) Oh, eh, uh-um, h-hi Isabella.
(Isabella) You looking for Ghost books again?
(Carlos) Y-yeah, I'm going to prove that Umbras and Forest Borns are real.
(Isabella) And Ghosts?
(Carlos) Y-Yeah...
(Isabella) What then?
(Carlos) I- I don't know.
(Isabella) Well I'll see you at the party! He he.
(Carlos) O-Okay. B-Bye, alright let's see here.
(?) Look behind you...
(Carlos) Huh?
(?) Look for the book behind you...
(Carlos) Oh, hm. Legends of Immortality. I never saw this book before.
(?) Read it...
(?) Yes, read it...
(Carlos) Hm. Alright...
As Carlos was reading the book, he came across things that he's never seen before, and something he didn't want to see.
(Carlos) Wait, what's this? In order to protect yourself from an Umbra, you must have the presence of belief and courage. This process may not work if it contains the presence of a depressed teenager...and revenge. Wh-what?
(?) Save them...
(Carlos) Hm, I gotta go tell Katy and Alfred, they might be in trouble!
(?) Go...
(Carlos) I'm coming, girls!
(Miss Delay) Shhh!
(Carlos) Sorry Miss Delay...
After school was done, everyone gathered in the gym to set up the party, with Carlos panicking.
(Katy) Where's Carlos? He was supposed to be here.
(Alfred) Maybe he got his nose stuck in a book.
(Katy) Omg, really?
(Alfred) Bffffff......
(Carlos) Girls! There you are! I have something to show you, it's-
(Katy) Where were you?
(Carlos) Not important, read this.
(Alfred) Carlos, not this again.
(Carlos) Read it!
(Alfred) Okay, okay! Alright. Hm, hm. Woah, Carlos this is-
(Carlos) Bad, I know!
(Alfred) I was gonna say totally fake and not needed of my time.
(Katy) Carlos, you might be coming down with paranoia.
(Alfred) Para-what now?
(Katy) It means that he believes that something is going to happen, to him or anyone else.
(Carlos) It's true though!
(Alfred) It'll be true when I see one.
(Katy) Can you stop saying that those things aren't true!
(Alfred) Because they're not!
(Katy) How do you know?!
(Alfred) You know what? I'm gonna go home now.
(Katy) But wait, we need you!
(Alfred) Well you have one less helper now!
(Katy) F-Fine!
(Carlos) Girl drama!
(Katy) Shut up.
