Scary School

Hey, hi, hello! How are you today? Good? Imma make you feel bad! Yay! So anyways... this is the story of how I died! Well technically got murdered, but that's a story for another day! Well, actually, it's the exact same story so let's get on with it!

It all started one school day. It was just like any other day, reading, maths, swimming, writing and so on, I had finished early so I was talking with my best friend, Layla (she's dead now too) even though she wasn't finished, but the teacher was out of the class and obviously if the enforcer of rules isn't there, there are no rules! But that's where things started to go downhill... well at the time I thought my day was just getting better, but... it ended up leading to my untimely demise. But anyway back to the story.

Just then the teacher walked in, but miraculously, she didn't notice our yapping away. But just in case, I started reading and Layla went back to her work.
"Ok class, I understand there are quite a few early finishers so if you could please follow me,"
I stood up, along with the other 5 or so early finishers and followed Miss Brown out of the classroom. We went into the library, which now come to think of it is kind of strange, after all, there's nothing really in there to do that isn't in our classroom. But, at the time, I didn't think much of it. She gave us each a book to read but just as we're walking out, she stops me.
"Land, hang back here for a minute or two,"
At the time, I thought I had been caught, for talking, but it turned out far worse than that.
"If you could just follow me into the supply room we'll have some privacy."
I thought it would be ok getting told off in the supply room, because that way no one would know. So, I followed. But that ended up being the worst (and last) decision of my life.

As soon as we steepled inside the room, she locked the door. Then she shuffled around some papers until she pulled out a knife. I tried to run, but all exits were blocked off. In that moment, I knew it was the end...
