School Excursion

Chapter 8 ~ School Excursion

Paris woke from her sleep the next morning and stretched her arms above her head, yawning. She looked over at Jazz like she normally did every morning. 

"Jazz, you awake?" 

Jazz opened her eyes and smiled sheepishly. "Yeah, I've been awake for a while"

Paris nodded and yawned again. "Oh my gosh guess what day it is?" She asked and sat up in her bed quickly. 

Jazz's frowned in confusion and shrugged. "Umm, It's Wednesday." She answered unsure. 

Paris chuckled at her friend. "No silly, today is the school excursion" She reminded and smiled at her, hoping she'd get it now. 

Jazz gasped and sat up quickly. "You're right, but we have to wear the stupid uniform out since we won't be in school" She said with a loud sigh following. 

'I swear she exaggerates everything she dislikes. '

Paris rolled her eyes mentally at her friend and got up out of bed. "Well I quite like the uniform, It's classy." She said and smiled, walking off into the bathroom to take a shower. 

After the shower she got herself dressed in the uniform. Chocolate brown stockings and a brown, black and white checkered skirt, and a white blouse buttoned shirt tucked under the skirt and black slip on's. 

She dried her hair and grabbed two locks of hair from the front and pinned it at the back. then applied a natural look of make-up and smiled at her reflection pleased. 

After that she walked out and looked at Jazz.

Jazz smiled. "You make the uniform look better than what it is." She said and giggled, taking her uniform into the bathroom, she did the same but instead tied her hair back in a neat pony-tail. Leaving only random strands of hair fall free at the sides of her face, shaping it. 

She too applied the make-up and than walked out to Paris. "Alright lets go." She said and smiled, walking out of the room with Paris. 

They walked down to the boys corridor and spotted Matt, Tahj, Felix, Drew, Izac and all the other males coming out of their room in there uniform too. 

They wore a black shirt and jacket along with black pants. The tie was the same colour as the girls skirt. They also had black formal shoes to go with it. 

Paris and Jazz approached the boys and smiled. 

"Hello guys, excited for the trip?" Jazz asked with a lot of excitement in her voice. 

Matt smiled at her enthusiasm. "Yeah sure, What are we going to see anyway?" He asked. 

"Well first we get to look around the town and then we visit this old factory to learn about machinery." She said, mainly excited to go looking around the town. 

Felix looked at them. "Isn't that place supposed to be haunted though?" He asked. 

"Who knows, maybe it is, maybe it isn't." Tahj joined in the conversation. 

"Only one way to find out, and we're doing it." Paris said and grinned at them.

After the bus ride to a town called Feddirish they all got out of the bus. 

"Students! Students listen up!" The teacher called through the loud voices of chattering students. "Stay with your assigned groups and all meet up on the black dot on your groups maps! remember do not ever leave your group!" She called hoping everyone has heard her instructions. 

Paris smiled at Jazz, Matt, Felix, Tahj and Izac. Her group. "So lets go" She said and stared walking. 

"Yaay! Oh my gosh Paris we have to visit the clothes shops!" She squealed, making the boys groan in annoyance resulting in Jazz sending them all glares whiched caused them all to silently walk behind them. 

"I wonder what their clothes stores are like here?" Paris questioned and walked into the closest clothes shop. The scent of caramel lit candles with a sort of strong vanilla, mothering the shop. 

"Wow, that's too strong for me I'll wait outside." Felix said and headed out of the shop and Izac followed behind him. 

Paris and Jazz were wondering around the shop, taking in the scent and looking at the clothes while Matt and Tahj followed behind them bored.

After the wondering around they started to make their way to the black dot on the map. As they reached it they looked at all the other students crowding the area near a tall building. 

Paris looked over the building curiously, sensing something horribly disturbing about it, but not sure what it could be. She started feeling slightly dizzy and she felt a headache coming along.

"Alright class stick together in your groups and take a look around, meet back here once you are finished looking." The teacher called and waved everybody off, again hoping everyone took notice in what she was telling them. 

"Paris are you okay?" Matt asked, taking hold of her arm and leading her inside the building. 

"Matt... This place is weird, I don't think any of us should really be here." Paris said and rubbed her temples to sooth her growing headache. 

"It'll be fine, we're all here what could possibly go wrong?" He asked and smiled, reassuringly. 

She sighed and followed him in and looked around the old machinery work place. "It smells horrible." She said and looked over at Paris and Tahj who looked at her with worry over their face's. "What?" She asked confused. 

"Nothing it's just you look a bit pale that's all... Like you're sick." Jazz explained and placed a hand over Paris's forehead to check if her forehead was hot or normal temperature. "You're starting to heat up a bit, do you want me to take you back to the bus?" She asked. 

Paris shook her head and sighed. "Nah I'll be fine, promise." She assured, looking down at the floors that looked like they had a tinge of red on them. She squinted her eyes to see if she was seeing right, and she was. But was she saw next was freaky. 

Paris breathed shakily as she seen an illusion of a skinned male laying sprawled out on the floor like a carpet. She blinked a couple times and it was gone, swallowing the lump in her throat she kept walking with them.

As they came to a large metal door Paris noticed it was chained up with a rusty chain and lock. She placed a hand on the door and it as cold, so cold it felt hot and she quickly removed her hand at what she felt. "Guy's is this like a refrigerator or something because it's so damn cold." She said. 

Matt placed his hand on the door and looked at her. "You're right, but nothing would be running now it's suppose to be closed down right?" He asked, only causing Jazz and Paris to shiver. 

"Yeah I say we go back now, it's creepy here I'd much rather go visiting the clothes shop." Jazz stated. 

Tahj placed his hand on the door. "Maybe we should open it, The chains are all rusty maybe we can break it open." He suggested and picked up a heavy object and smashed it against the chain and lock, the chain and lock both broke and fell to the floor. "Well that was.... Easier than I thought." He said and looked at them. 

"But will it open?" Matt asked and grabbed the handle and pulled open the heavy door. 

Paris gasped at the half skinned female hanging from a large thick hook. 

Jazz held her stomach and vomited over the floor at the awful deceased smell and the sight they all saw. 

Felix covered his mouth and turned around finding Izac's chest to hide his face in before he vomited like Jazz had. 

Izac quickly held Felix and moved away from the door, trying to hold in his own vomit. 

Tahj's eyes widened and he screamed, covering his mouth and his eyes filled with tears. "Holy dear god!" He said and turned away from the door. 

Matt covered Paris's and Jazz's eyes with both hands and stared into the freezing room at the rotting deceased half or all skinned bodies just hanging.
