Jokers

James Ratet's POV:

I was walking out of the elevator that day, heading toward my cubicle. I am a writer so I do not have large office or desk, just a cubicle. As I was walking to my cubicle I was thinking about where to eat. While in deep thought, I tripped over a small clear line of string. It wasn't a little trip, it was a big trip. I landed on my face, and the coffee, in my hand, went everywhere. I was humiliated. Everyone around was laughing at me and I know who did this, Tony Davidson and Ned Jackson. Tony and Ned are known as the "Jokers" in the office. They are two immature kids, I don't even know why they even got hired here. I saw Ned, a scrawny 22-year-old, laughing his head off in his cubicle.

I got up, my face as red as a firetruck, I picked him up by the collar and shoved him against the wall. 

"DID YOU DO THIS?!?" I yelled.

"Uh........," He started until I cut him off.

"I ASKED IF YOU DID THIS," I yelled again much louder.

"Y-y-yes," He replied , he seemed very scared. I punched him in the left eye.

"Don't you dare do that again, unless you want to be beat even more," I said as a glared at him. I picked up my briefcase and continued on to my cubicle. Everyone was staring, I will probably be called to the Old Grouch's office. I believe in punishment and that he deserved what I did to him. As I was walking I almost ran into Tony, Ned's best friend. He looked a little odd, but I was too mad to care. I walked around him. I straightened out my suit and continued on to my desk as if nothing happened. I was sure to watch out for any other trip lines. I sat down at my cubicle, put my jacket on the chair and started to type my current article.

 

Tony Davidson's POV:

"Dude, you can't be serious," I said to Ned, my best bud.

"You bet I'm serious. I pull off this prank and the whole office will be laughing. Nobody really cares about that James dude anyway," Ned replied.

"Well, good luck. I don't want any take in this because if James gets mad I can't phyically defend myself," I said.

"He isn't going to hurt me; it's just a prank. Everybody can take a joke," He replied while taping the almost-invisable, super string to the wall.

"I don't know, he seems to be pretty serious," I commented.

"Eh, remember yolo? Just apply that to this," He said while taping the other end of the string to the cubicle wall by the wall.

"I gotta go to the bathroom, I hope I don't miss it," I replied. I went to the bathroom and did my business. After I came out of the stall I saw it. The message. I heard the laughing outside in the hall, but I was too scared by what was on the mirror to even mind it.

 

Ned Jackson's POV:

"Don't you ever do that again, unless you want to be beat even more," James said glaring at me. I've gone too far I thought to myself, too far. I really enjoy making people laugh but this extent was too far. Now I have a black eye.

Where is Tony? He should be here. he is always by my side no matter what. He must be taking  a long one in the bathroom.  

As I watched James stomp off to his cubicle I saw he gave Tony a dirty look as he passed him.  As Tony got closer to me, I saw he didn't look like normal. He looked pale and drained.

"What's wrong Tony friend?" I asked.

"Er, nothing," He said staring at the group.

"Are you sure? You look pale," I commented.

"Yeah," He replied now looking at my black eye, "Now, I guess the black is from James?"

"Yeah, but that's a long story I'll tell you later. You better get something to eat you're awfully pale," I told him.

"Okay," He said. We went down to the break room on floor 5 to get something to snack on. He settled on a Turkey Samwich and a Coca-cola. I just got a Mountain Dew, and started to tell him all about the prank.

The Message

In the bathroom the mirror said, "Tony, stop pulling pranks or I will make sure you will pay. I am watching you very close and I know your dark secrets. If you don't stop, well, I'll show you later. -Mr. Windower."
