The curse of Mary Jane

Chapter 9

The next day at school, Carter was walking Mary Jane to class.

"So, you wanna hang out after school?" Carter asked.

"I'm sorry, today's a really bad day to hang out, I have to get ready to tutor Dyandra on math tonight." Mary Jane replied.

Carter gave her a confused look.

"What? Dyandra's like, the best at Math. She always gets straight A's."

Mary Jane raised her eyebrow.

"Weird.." Mary Jane responded curiously.

Both of them came to Mary Jane's class.

"I'll see you tomorrow then?" Carter asked as Mary Jane smiled.

"Sure," Mary Jane replied.

"I could walk you there-"

"Carter," Mary Jane said grabbing his hand. "I'll be fine."

Carter smiled at her and nodded.

"Alright, okay take care." He replied as Mary Jane stared at his dimples as he smiled.

"Okay bye!" She exclaimed, kissing his cheek as they both went their separate ways.

After school, Dyandra made sure all the students had went home.

She walked up slowly to her math classroom. She poked her head in the door and her math teacher smiled at her.

"Well well," she said with a smile. "Dyandra, one of my favourite students! What can I do for you?"

Dyandra smiled back.

"Well, I did hear you have the keys to the whole school."

Her math teacher nodded crossing her arms.

"Yes, I do."

"Well," Dyandra continued, tapping her finger on her teacher's desk. "Tonight, my friends and I need the keys."

Her math teacher raised her eyebrow.

"And why exactly?"

Dyandra paused for a moment, thinking of an excuse.

"Um, there's this musical going on, and my friends and I need some extra practice to rehearse. Is that okay?" Dyandra lied, playing with her hair.

"Well," her teacher said, thinking about it for a moment. "Since it is just for extra practice, I guess you could take them, but I trust you not to be irresponsible with those keys."

Dyandra thanked her and walked out the door. An evil smile appeared on her face.

Night came and Mary Jane was at school. She checked her watch and her eyes widened.

"9:59! I'm going to be late!" She said, opening the school door.

She ran to the gym. Her backpack was slipping off her shoulders.

Mary Jane walked into the stage.

"Dyandra?" She called out. No response. She tried calling her again.

"Dyandra?"

Suddenly, she heard the door click. She turned around and ran to the door. She tried to open it but it was locked.

"What..." Mary Jane said, starting to freak out.

She started banging on the door.

"Help! Help! Somebody help me!" She yelled.

Suddenly, all the lights went off. Mary Jane felt a shiver go down her spine.

"W-what's going on?" Mary Jane mumbled to herself. She started to walk around slowly, trying to find the lights to the gym.

All of a sudden, she heard a voice behind her as she felt a hand touch her shoulder.

"I've been waiting for you..."
