Another body has been found in the courtyard. Dropped dead, just like all the others. The cause is still unknown after days since the first death. I think this was the 14th one? I dont know, I've lost count. Despite these tragities school still goes on as usual. Im not sure if they're trying to ignore whats going on or maybe they do in fact know what's causing all this but want to keep it secret. There have been no news stories or investigations, it's as if no one notices, and if they do, they dont care.

"Hey" I say, snapping out of my previous train of thought.
"Hey, how's it goin'?" He asks, noticing my face of concern.
"Im doing fine... just kindof freaked out by all this craziness happening arond here."
"Craziness?" He askes, with a confused look on his face.
"Yes, craziness, Jake. Have you not seen any of bodies being carried away these past few days? People are DYING and no one seems to care." I say, frustrated now.
He chuckles, "You're joking right? Nice one, Rachel, you really got me there for a second."
"NO MATT, IM NOT JOKING, am I the only one that.........................................................................."
