EVENT: SECRET
warnings for: manipulation / blackmailing, mentions of pyromania. let me know if you need anything tagged or a summary of the event!
The blog is still password protected when youâre allowed back into school. After a week of thorough investigation, students are allowed to pour back into school. The gossip boards have been active nearly every day since the arson attempt -- itâs no longer a board meant to spread rumors, itâs a board teetering between malicious and defensive, no longer built on good intent.Â
The halls are noisier than usual, eyeing new security and polished cameras as they wait for their morning class. When you shut your locker, listening to laughter and chatter, thereâs something that makes you dig into your pocket. Whether itâs the pocket of your jeans, or a hoodie, or your bag, it makes you dig, and itâs there you see a ripped piece of paper. Itâs ripped from a notebook, and in flowery lettering, with hearts dotting iâs, it has a single word on it, followed by numbers.
Before you have time to figure out what it means, the bell for first period rings, and you shove it back into the pocket from where it came from and go to class.
The day goes smoothly, the occasional rumor being passed around, harassment as constant as ever, and when you get to your house - whether itâs from intuition, pure luck, or otherwise - you click onto the original Gossip Alert blog. Keying in the words, the page loads, and for the first time in weeks, youâre allowed access to the infamous blog.
There are new entries and posts, all posted today. None have deciphered text, but screenshots of emails are all the posts contain. Words are blocked out, but you know enough to get the gist of what happened.
