It was a stormy day at school. James and Jeffree was hugging each other under the tables. "Is it gone?" James' voice was trembling. "I don't know.." Jeffree dared to look out and saw a crowd of people running around. "Is it a school shooter?" James was shaking. "No. It is much worse" Jeffree didn't dare to say more and it only led to James being more scared than ever. "Then w-what is happening?" Jeffree placed his finger on his lips, indicating that James should shut up. James nodded understandably and waited under the table attempting to not cry. Suddenly a scream. And everyone was running down the hallway. Jeffree stood up to run, but suddenly he reached out to James, lifting him."It's Tati Westbrook!" Trisha was the last to get out of the classroom. She couldn't keep up. Laura Lee was the first to reach the front doors. Tati was standing right at the door with lightning right behind her. Every time a lightning would strike she would mutter in terror. Soon everyone was there. Even Trisha. Everyone was comforting Tati and they started panicking with what they saw. "Is that..." blood was dripping by Tati's arm. The crowd mumbled. Tati stood up with her arm wrapped around Laura's neck and said: "They're after us! We have to.." She went in and out of consciousness because of blood loss. Laura widened her eyes. She tried lifting Tati to the nurse's office and Jaclyn Hill joined her. And that's where we are now.


I mush through the trembling crowd trying to see what is happening. Tati is trying to say something but it is impossible to understand. Jaclyn and Laura succeed to carry her to the nurse's office. And all hell breaks loose once the door closes. Everyone is mumbling on top of each other. I cling onto Gabbie Hana's arm despite despising her until the door opens and a teacher exits the nurse's office. The lightning is making ear-piercing noises. The teacher awaits silence and says: "Dear students and makeup gurus. It is with a very heavy heart to inform that something terrible will happen. Tati is the only person that knows what is going on. So until she recovers we have to close every window, every blind and lock every door. So don't hesitate to help each other. We'll be back with more information later" The teacher lowers his head. Tears in my eyes as I stare reassuringly at Gabbie's concerned face. She pats my shoulder while whispering: "It'll be ok. Don't worry." And with the arm still on my shoulder, the teacher escorts us back in class.


I am sitting in class when James sits next to me. He silently organizes his backpack while awaiting the teacher. "Hm. I wonder if Tati is alright." I comment. "She is perfectly alright" James says annoyed. "Seriously. Don't worry about it" I bite my lower lip in fear. "You think so?" I ask. "Oh I know so" he says while closing the zipper aggressively. "Why are you so upset?" "I'm not! Just tired... And scared. I have a future ahead of me. We all have. I really hope everything is alright. But it obviously isn't" He hangs his head. He immediately lifts it because the door opens up. Tati comes in wearing a purple silk dress, reaching her knees which are covered in bandages. "What was that makeover for?" I whisper. "Probably because she had bloody clothes. This is what's left in the theater costume box" James answers. I nod understandably. Tati walks up to the speech table while the crowd calms down. She looks extremely upset, so the teacher places a hand on her back for comforting her as she talks. But Tati doesn't get to say anything before the teacher asks: "Where is Jeffree Star?" I tried recalling the event and I remember: "He got overwhelmed and ran off to the toilet" I said very clearly. "Well if you know where he is then quickly call him over. Tati you just sit down at the teacher's chair" Tati nods and sits down. And I get out of the classroom...


....I try calling Jeffree a million times already, but he doesn't pick up. The toilets are completely empty. Every single stall. I sit down outside in defeat. "I can't do it" I cry. "For once I thought: hey! I can prove my worth to all the other makeup gurus. But no. never. I am just so worthless. I can't even find a drag queen." I hide my face in my hands and gasp beneath the tears. Suddenly I hear clicking from someone's heels. Then a soft hand touches my shoulder. It's... "James! What are you doing here?!" I gasp trying to wipe the tears away. "Hey!" "NO!" "HEY!" "NOO!!" "STOP!" James locks my arms in place and sits next to me. "Listen I understand feeling like the outcast." "You do?" I cry-laugh. "I mean you have all this success. I'm just an ordinary girl amongst you makeup Gods." "There was a time where I was despised too. Nobody believed in me. And look at me now. All grown." He smiles at me and I wipe away the last tears I had. "Anyways. I came because you were late and Tati is not healthy or fresh." I try not to cry again. James quickly places his hands on my cheeks and says: "Oh no no don't you cry Casey! I can see he isn't here. Let's find him together" He stands up and gives me his beautifully manicured hand. I place my tiny hand into his gorgeously wrinkled palm and he pulls me up. Together we walk down the hallway, talking. It is really fun let me tell you. James is a fast talker and sounds very happy even though we live in fear at the moment. And I forget the situation. And Jeffree. But it all stops when we reach the second floor. On the right side of the hallway we see a ball. Not a ball but a 400-pound human trying to breathe. "Shane!" James yells and runs towards him. He rolls Shane over and he coughs out: "Jeffree is going nuts! Be aware! Be..." He passes out and desperately tries to cough. I panic. My heart rate is increasing every second. "What happened?" We were happy a minute ago! "I... Jeff..Sta.. kill..." "You killed Jeffree?!" "NO! I... I.. Know.. Everything..." Shane closes his eyelids. James shakes him in panic. "No.. This can't be happening. Shane!" Suddenly we hear a roar. I shake in fear and attempt running in the opposite direction but then I hear a bark and the door behind me gets torn open. Something or someone jumps and grabs James by the neck pushing him down on his back. Suddenly it bites his neck and disappears. I hold in a massive scream because I didn't want that creature to notice me too. "Who are you?!" James yells. He tries not to cry from the pain. I reach down my pockets and I find some tissues. Quickly I grab James neck and I soak the blood away. "Who was it? I didn't get to see the creature bite you. It all went by so extremely fast!" "I- I don't know. It just came. But it was definitely human." I gulped down my spit. My mouth felt dry. Heart pumping. The creature ran off to the door in front of us. James quickly stood up, holding the tissues tightly against his neck trying to open the door. But he is far too weak. "Are you losing blood?" I ask pressing the tissues even tighter. "No.. It was probably venomous." My heart drops. "I feel dizzy" I help him lay down. "Just stay there. Hold the tissues while I look for help" It requires major strength to walk past Shane's body. "You too" I whisper. But I don't reach the stairs before I hear an intense growl. "Wha- Who is it?" Suddenly I flinch when I see him: Jeffree. Growling on the floor with his teeth wide open. Squishing his face and making an evil expression. "What are... You doing?" My voice is so squeaky and unrecognizable. Jeffree's face shifts. He proceeds to look at me as if he wants to say something. He is on all four limbs in a very threatening position so I can't take a step. "Don't hurt my people. Please" He suddenly says. "What?! You're the one that... killed Shane and injured James!!" I yell. I can hear footsteps beneath us and Jeffree storms off. "I'm a part of that pack that hurt Tati" Confusion rose inside me. Tension between us built up until Jeffree jumped out of the window. I ran towards him, almost falling out myself and looked down. Jeffree was alright and running; on all four limbs! 

The teacher and some students ran towards me in panic. "What happened?" The teacher asked. "I think that... I don't want to accuse anybody of anything..." I said anxiously. "No! You need to tell us what Jeffree said." I attempt to not cry but there was no James rescuing me this time. "Stop whining and start telling!!" The teacher shakes me and I cough it up:   "Jeffree... He said: Don't hurt my people and he also said that he was a part of the pack that hurt Tati" Tati looks at me horrified behind the teacher. "Are you sure that was what he said?" The teacher giggles. "It may sound hilarious to you but it is the truth. Believe it or not." And the teacher stopped giggling...
