Edith watched Billy as he laid on top of his skateboard. They were locked away in the puzzle room.
Edith knew how to get out but every time she went to press the eye, Billy pulled her away and called her crazy.
"Oh wait don't let the door shut!" Billy shouted as Marcus, Saya and Slasher walked in. Edith looked up to them and furrowed her brows. "Ughhh!"
"Billy what is this?" Marcus questioned looking around at the room.
"It's the puzzle room, dude!" Billy sighed.
"They randomly lock kids in, and you have to solve a riddle to get out. One of these doors is the only unguarded exit out of King's." Saya explained.
"Monks threw us in here this morning. I'm not doing the riddle, though. And I'm not letting that crazy person do it either!"
"She's not crazy." Marcus clenched his jaw, he knew Billy didn't actually mean it. Marcus took a deep breath. "Why?"
"Lions, fire." Billy pointed at different exits. "And she wanted to go ahead and solve the riddle."
"Behind one door, scorching fire, the other, three lions starved for months, the last holds deadly assassins. Which is the path to safety?" Saya read the small clue they had.
"Hey, guys, did you know that you're hanging with the Scorpio Slasher?" Billy questioned, Edith rolled her eyes.
She hated that guy.
"We're getting burritos." Slasher mumbled and Edith scoffed under her breath. "Something to say Edith?"
"Don't talk to her." Marcus snapped towards him, so he held his hands up in surrender.

Marcus had just explained the whole situation with Fuckface and how he has Chico's body.
Chester had called Marcus and threatened to send the body back to his father.
From beside him, he felt Edith tense, so he placed his hand over hers. It was the most contact that she has had with him since the night on the rooftop.
"Shit, what does this Fuckhead guy want? Why didn't you tell us?" Billy questioned running his hand over his face.
"You know, there's a lot Marcus doesn't say." Slasher mumbled from where he was stood.
"You don't know dick." Marcus fired back.
Edith leant her head on his shoulder and squeezed her eyes shut.
"Oh, I know dick. You and I are a lot more alike than that Dr.Seuss character." Slasher motioned to Billy.
"It's a Mohawk." Billy defended himself.
"I have nothing in common with a piece-of-shit bully who kills teenagers making out in cars." Marcus denied.
"Better to burn them in a boys' home?" Slasher questioned. Marcus glared across at him, tensing slightly. "Ooh, the road not traveled." He slid down the wall and sat beside Marcus.
