Laura's POV:
"I don't see her anywhere Laf, I'm really starting to get worried." I say while running up and down the halls.

Laf keeps their head dug into the book they were reading.

"Laf?" I say tapping their shoulder but they don't notice. I sigh. They weren't being much help with finding Carmilla. I walk down our dorm room hall to see if maybe she returned but my room was still empty.

Where are you Carm?

I sigh in defeat and sit on my bed looking at her clothes scattered everywhere on the ground.

You wouldn't just leave me like this..

Although she was complete chaos to handle she was My complete chaos. And a beautiful one at that. I find her leather jacket lying on her bed so I pick it up and observe it. I hold it close missing the warm body that filled it.

I hope you're okay..

A few moments later Laf walks in with their head dug in the book still.

"Laura." They say picking their head up from the book finally.

"Oh hey Laf, didn't see you there. Thought I was looking for Carmilla all on my lonesome." I say sarcasticly, a bit angry with Laf. They give me an angry but understanding nod.

"Well if you hadn't noticed, I was reading the book you and Danny stole from the dean's office and there's a lot of underlined and circled paragraphs on it. Sad to say, the whole things in Latin and I'm barley passing that class with a B+" they frown at me and I begin playing with the jacket in my hand. "Anyways. I managed to decode some of the underlined words and I think the dean plans to open up a portal to another world? Or this is a recipe for the world's hottest salsa? I'm not really sure."

"My best guess is the portal," I say standing up giving Laf a small smirk.

"Right, same here. Well it says that there's a tunnel under the Silas auditorium that leads to an underground burial sight?"

I place my hand on my chin lost in thought.
Could this really be where Carmilla is?

"Laura," Laf looks up from the book with an upset expression, "she can't cross without Carmilla.."

"Meaning?.." The word lingers off my tongue.

"We've gotta go and we've gotta go now." They grab my hand and we start running out the door.

Please be safe..

Narrator's POV:
"Rise you lifeless sack of bones." The dean says raising her hands in the air.  Carmilla's body slowly begins to stand off the ground until it's straightened out in front of the dean.

She circles around Carmilla's body observing it.

"Interesting." She snaps her fingers in front of Carmilla but she doesn't flinch. It was as if her soul had left her body completely.
"Well this'll make things a lot easier. Come along child, we don't want to be late." The dean begins to walk down a tunnel with Carmilla following close behind, completely under the dean's control.
