Marina in a beautiful white dress, just stood there without much movements. I rush to her immediately and start questioning her excitedly.

*Thaddeus* Marina! You made it! I'm really glad you finally here! And is that you costume?*

*Marina*...*

*Marina*...Yeah...*

*Thaddeus* Well it might not look like much costume to me, but you look very...*

*Thaddeus* great in this.*

I can't hide the fact that I just complimented her. I hope she doesn't find that odd. Well, since she's here, I need to get her to the others too.

*Thaddeus* Marina, listen. There are some strange things happening right now so be careful, okay? Come with me, I'll take you to the others.*

*Marina* ...It's raining really heavy, isn't it?*

*Thaddeus* Y-yeah, it really is. I'm surprise that you got here without soaking yourself.*

The rain is pouring even harder and harder. I am walking in front of Marina to lead the way. I kind of want to walk equally with her, but she kind of walks too slow. I can't slow down in times like this. I need to help everyone as much as possible.

We both walk together for quite some time until we arrive at the hall. But oddly, I don't see any people along the way and now, standing in the main hall, empty with no sight of the others.

*Thaddeus* Huh?! Where's everyone? I swear everyone is literally here the whole time!*

*Marina*...*

Marina looks up at the ceiling and points her finger, without saying any words. I follow her pointing to the ceiling. What I saw is half of the people bodies are there. They are bloody and all the faces are unrecognizable, but I still manage to tell some by looking at their outfit. And one of those outfit is Louis's outfit. I stand in shock to this, how is this possible? What is happening exactly? How can it happen so quickly?

Once again, shock and panic fill over me. My head is all fuzzy, making the surrounding looks like a blurry version of the place. Then I felt a slight tap on my shoulder. It was Marina's tap. After that, she's quietly put her hand away and look at the right side of our direction. It's as if she's telling me to check in that direction. Not even long, Marina walks over to the other hallway, leaving me standing and watching her. How can she be so calm seeing something like this? Isn't it at least settle her? Or is she trying to bottling up her emotions?

I catch up with her as she enter one room on the way. The room is very empty. It doesn't look like it's for anything. Just four sides of the wall of pure white paint and one wide window with an old dirty sheet cover it, but the window look like it was probably broken ages ago. Hence, this might be a room that someone forgot that they have in the school. On the floor, it looks normal until you step on it. You can feel the thickness of the dirt and the spider webs covering the whole place. Marina make sure that the door is closed while holding the doorknob tight and I was puzzled to see her doing that. 

*Thaddeus* Marina, what are you doing? *

*Marina*...*

*Marina* Making sure no one could come in. It only has lock from the outside. We need a place to hide. *

*Thaddeus* Hide? You mean from who ever causing all of this? *

*Marina* Yes. It won't find us here. *
