DETENTION: Nothing goes unpunished.

Chapter Nine

Back at the girl's room.

Emerald is still crying while her friends remained dumbstruck about what she have said. Rika was the first one to get her thoughts together.

"Hey Em. Maybe you were just hallucinating or something. How could someone grab you? When we got here there was no one around." Rika said trying to calm Emerald.

"Rika, I am not lying! There was really something under that bed!" Emerald shouted and pointed under the bed, where, according to her the place where she saw the person that grabbed her.

"If there was something there then let me check. Alice, hand me your phone." Charlee said voluntarily.

"Dude! What if there really is a ghost?! What if it takes my phone?! Why not use your phone instead?!" Alice said while looking at Charlee like what he said was a very bad idea.

"If only my phone was with me, I could've used it! Just hand me your phone! There are no ghosts!" After saying that, Charlee swiftly grabbed from Alice.

He then laid face down on the floor. Turning on the flashlight on Alice's phone while facing under the bed where Emerald said she saw the image that grabbed her.

"Dude! There's nothing here! Calm down!" Charlee told the girls.

Alice and Rika looked at each other in shock.

"Uhm? Charlee?" Rika called Charlee who was still busy looking under the bed.

"Yeah?"

"Charlee! Did you just fucking lay on the floor?!" Alice said while still in shock.

"Oh fuck! I did! Damn it Emerald! This is your fault!" Charlee quickly got up from the floor and went directly to the girl's vanity room.

"C, if you're looking for an alcohol or wipes it's in the drawer near the mirror." Rika instructed.

Charlee quickly opened the said drawer and grabbed the alcohol and wipes. He then began to pour alcohol all over his body.

"Ewe... Can't you just take a bath?!"

"A simple bath won't do. I need to fucking sanitize myself then take a bath after."

"You're such a germaphobe!"

"I am not! I'm just trying to get away from illnesses caused by germs and dust!"

"Sure, sure. If you say so."

(Crash!)

"Hey! What's that?" Alice asked her friends.

"Yeah, it sounds like breaking glass." Rika answered.

"But where did it come from?"

"That we need to figure out."

"W-we need to check it out, I feel a bit better already."

"Are you sure Em?"

"Yeah, let's go."

The group of friends quickly stood up and left the room. While on their way to see where the sound of breaking glass came from, they heard another sound again.

(Arghhhh!)

"Dude, someone's screaming!"

"That sounds like Angela. It came somewhere downstairs."

"Let's go check on her."

While they are rushing towards the stairs, they saw Simon walked out from the boy's room.

"Hey! Simon! Is that Angela that's screaming?" Rika asked Simon but Simon did not reply and just continued to walk towards the direction of the stairs.
