Being insane is what makes me feel alive
"Augustine... Calm down" Tris whispered to her. "You don't want the result if--"
"Principal, can I suggest something?" Augustine said. The principal raised an eyebrow at her. "Since the incident happened again after a day, I want to know that your students are having stress due to this... Event" Augustine narrowed her eyes and put her hands on the hips. "Of course we wish a month or a week of silence to clear our mind."
The principal crossed his arms. "What's your name?"
"Augustine Dsean and Tris Abel Arc from grade 12-Elytra"
"Hmmm..." Principal looked at the ceiling then at her. "I accept your request... I will give you, Elytra, a week for your 'silence'" the principal smiled at them.
Thank God!!
Augustine grinned. "Thank you so much sir. Melvin"
Tris stood there dumbfounded still processing of what happened.

"Guys guess what!" Augustine shouted as they look at her. "The principal gave us a week to clear our minds!"
"Oh god thank you August" Maine said as she took her bag. "Let's go"
Tris and the others just took their bag.
Augustine sighed and look at the crime scene, their classroom, being surrounded with the police they expected to come.
She took her bag and grin at her squad. "Shall we solve it?"
The others grin while the others fidgeted.

"Is it okay for you to... Escape home?" Nhietth said to Augustine who sat into one of the rocks.
"I hate home... No one will care if I'm gone" Augustine said as she smiled. "Of course no one knew since I'm a ninja!" she posed like one of her characters.
"Augustine don't joke like that!" Nhietth pouted and took her wrist. "Look! Me and Tris are the only who know about this!" she pointed at her scars. "It's getting more and more! You aren't drinking pills anymore! Look at your eyebags! It became triple deck!" Nhietth threw her arms dramatically. "Whatever! Let's just wait them and I'll sleep beside you" Nhietth immediately sat beside and lean on her. "Fantasy... Here I come"
"Fantasy huh?" Augustine muttered as she took out her cellphone.
I wish everything was just a mere fantasy
Augustine chuckled then put her earbuds on her ears. Humming the song on her playlist.
"I just hope this will stop" taking the pills, she said as she drank one of them. "What if..."
Nhietth sneeze as she huddled even more at Augustine. Augustine sighed and took her extra jacket put it above her. "Bring some fucking jacket will ya?"
Nhietth purred. CAT

"Are you ready?" August said on the phone. "I've already put the cameras... Is it connecting?"
"Yep" Tris said on the other line. "I'm just waiting for the others."
"I-- Frick frack!" Dev said as they heard a crash coming from him. "I'm okay guys... I'm fucking okay"
"Oi I'm coming already at your place" Nhietth said. "I'm going to--"
"Done"
"Ali help me here!!" Maine shouted.
"I'm not done yet!" Ali shouted.
"Choose guys... 15 minutes or 1 hour?"
"What?" Nhietth and Dev asked. "What are you--"
"Answer me" Augustine said.
"Oh great your dark ego" Dev joked. Nhietth snickered in the background.
"FUCK YOU!" Augustine shouted. "Now freaking choose. 15 minutes or 1 hr"
"Better if it is 3 hours" Nhietth suggested
"Okay then" Augustine smirked as she pull out an injection. "3 hours it is then"
"Guys quit shouting, the guards are here" Tris said. "Augustine they're on your way, get out of there and the others do like as what we planned"
"Wait the next one is going home to plugged the camera on our laptops/computers right?" Maine asks as the others answered 'yes'
"August? August?!" Tris shouted. "Get out of there!!"
No answer.
"August!" Nhietth shouted as she huffed. "Get out of there! I know you can hear us!"
"Shhh" August only answered as a thumping sound was heard. Augustine pulled out her cellphone and take a selfie. She immediately smile and send it to their group chat and immediately walking around, finding the cameras they installed.
"I'll be going home after I install something in the cameras just like Tris said"
"Oh right" Tris laughed awkwardly. "Sorry I forgot but what happened?"
Augustine chuckled darkly. "Check the group."
"Dafuq?!" Nhietth shouted.
"What the f?!" Tris shouted. "Augustine are you done?"
"I'm already at my house." Augustine snickered. "Plug in all your computers since I've add some extra things"
"I swear to God August, stop doing that!" Ali said as all of them open their computers and laptop.
"Well, here's the plan" Tris stated. "We will rumble out who's going to watch the cameras per day. We have 9 days and we're 8, Day 1 will start tomorrow and that is where Nhietth will start."
"Okay then..." Dev said as he crossed his arms. "Next is Austine then Teli right?"
"Yep" Tris said. "Go with the plan where I ordered you to" She said. "But Augustine, do you think this is okay with you?"
Augustine smiled. "Of course... Atleast I could get the positive side of my insomnia..." She said as she end the call and looked at the ceiling.
We'll get you now... Murderer
