Here's a shitty update after disappearing for like two weeks because of school 👍👍👍

After a agonising hour stuck in traffic with Audrey and Emma which consisted of Audrey screaming Hayley Kiyoko songs out of sync and Emma rambling about how she was torn between whatever feelings she had left for Will and the new ones she was developing for my brother, we arrived at the abandoned hospital.

"I mean, I still care about Will, he's my best friend but... Kieran makes me feel safe, like the killer can't get me. Do you know what I mean?"

"Yeah I do." I spoke with a heavy heart, finding my mind lingering on thoughts of Jake Fitzgerald, "But Em, Kieran's my brother so it's my duty to do this. If you break his heart I'll break you and everything you care about, got it?"

"Eh, it was a given." Emma chuckled, meanwhile Audrey sat in the driver's seat humming along to the radio.

"So are we gonna do some breaking and entering or what?"

"Actually it's just gonna be entering, we're not gonna break anything." I shrugged

"Still illegal." Audrey opened the car door, jumping out onto the asphalt.

I climbed our of my side of the door, holding it open for Emma to climb across the seats and out of the car.

"So what do you think?" She asked

"Second thoughts are setting in."

"I'm with Audrey on this one."

"Look this guy killed Riley at the police station and Nina at her house." I winced at the thought of my two dead best friends, "and I know for a fact that he was outside my house the other night." Emma said aggressively

"And he stabbed me but let me get away and he's been sending me creepy phone calls and texts."

"So if he wanted to kill either of us, he's had plenty of chances."

"That's sketchy logic." Audrey furrowed her eyebrows, "but I guess it makes sense, so alright. Let's gear up."

Emma and I followed Audrey along the side of her car until we reached the trunk, she popped it open and began to dug through a duffel bag, she pulled her hand back to reveal a stun gun lay in her palm.

Emma shot her a curious look, "You have a stun gun?"

"Yeah, over protective dad." Audrey shrugged, handing the small device to Emma, "If you see your psycho friend, press that button, jam it in his junk."

"What about you guys?" Emma asked

Audrey smirked, her hand returning back to the bag as she pulled out a crowbar, "I'm old school."

"Lyds?"

"Don't worry about me." I said, opening my purse, my hand grasped the sleek metal and I pulled it from inside.

"A gun?" Emma and Audrey gasped, "Where the hell did you even get that?"

"Its my Dad's spare, he keeps it in a locked draw in his office, Kieran and I have been taking turns using it since the murders started happening."

"Geez, you're more badass than I thought."

"Like you wouldn't believe."

Soon after entering the abandoned hospital, which after all did involve some breaking as we had to snap a few wooden planks off of a window to get in, we came across a small office area that was practically nothing but old desks and dusty wooden chairs.
