Diana woke up with a headache. She wondered how she got into bed when all she remembered was heading back home and a gang of robbers attacked her. Though she felt like her head is being hit with a hammer, she still wanted to go to college. After all, her parents would have wanted her to have a better job. Suddenly she missed them. After 5 years of living alone, without her parents.

*FLASHBACK*

"Eomma! Appa! Where are you taking me if I pass my big exam and go to college?" Asked Diana in excitement. Both her parents just laughed and shook their heads. Diana understood that it was a surprise. She went to her room and played Usher's song 'DJ got us falling in love again' and started to sway her body while getting ready for a farewell party.

Diana was known to be a dancing machine among her family and friends (depends on the people who stayed at her side). She wanted to be a part of an entertainment, a solo artist. But of course her parents wanted her to try and put that dream aside and go for something science or law related. Her parents knew that Diana can be stubborn at times.

"Diana! Its time to leave! We're going to be late for the farewell party!" Shouted her mom from downstairs. She grabbed her bag and headed down. It was raining heavily as they made their way to the party. And that's when tragedy hit them. Her father was trying to avoid a dead dog in the middle of the road and another car ran into them, causing their car to hit the guardrail and lost control.

Rushed to the hospital, it was announced that both her parents died. Diana suffered with broken pieces of glasses embedded on her back and cuts to her face. After she was discharged, her aunt Rose took care of her until she reached 20. Her aunt suggested Diana should live by herself to which she agreed.

*END OF FLASHBACK*

She was on her way to college when suddenly a dark figure was passing by. She came to an abrupt halt, eyes widened. 'That's funny... Didn't someone pass by just now?' She wondered. She was brought back to reality when a honk was heard from the other cars. Arriving at college, someone tapped her shoulder. "Uhmm excuse me but where is the principal's office?" Asked a brown haired girl.

"Ne. It just down the hallway to your left." She replied. The girl nodded and thanked her. She went to her class and as usual, the boys greeted her. She greeted back and tried to ignore the glares of the other girls. Class started and this time they were told that afternoon classes were cancelled. While the others cheered and started planning for afternoon's plans, Diana groaned and just decided to head off to work early so she could finish early.

During lunchbreak, the brown haired girl and her friends which Diana was surprised because she was a new student and she has gained three friends in total, approached her. "Do you mind if we sit here?" She asked. Diana nodded her head.

"I'm Hyeri by the way. This is Minah, Yura and Sojin." The other three smiled and slightly nodded their heads. "Diana." She managed to say, "I'm surprised that you managed to gain friends. I mean its usually hard to gain one when your a newbie."

Hyeri laughed and shook her head. "They're not my friends. More like my sisters."Diana widened her eyes. "Oh m-mianhae I didn't mean to...." "gwenchanayo. Everyone would also think of the same thing." Replied Yura. Lunchbreak was over and Hyeri headed back to class to grab her things. To her surprise, everyone left except for the 11 boys. The proof was the chairs were empty and no bags was placed there.

She was alone in the room, packing her things when a pile of books fell. Diana quickly turned around and saw no one. "W-who's t-there?" She asked, then she felt a cold wind blowing, shutting the door abruptly. Planning to make a run, the lights flickered and one by one, the lights went off.
