Around 5 minutes had gone by and Jonas hadn’t come back from picking a book. Rei walked around the small library to look for him but didn’t find him. He pulled Bianca to the side and told her what was going on.

“I’ll go look for Jonas. You stay here, Bianca. Stay here and wait for Mr. Hanes to take you guys out. I think I know who could’ve taken him...”

Bianca was nervously biting her nails. “Good luck...”

She walked back to the morning students, trying to keep a fake smile on her face. “So! Who wants to play truth or dare!”

Codi snarled at her. “Where’s Jonas? And that vampire guy?”

The morning students had no idea about the murder that happened the night before, they were all too busy getting ready for the dance.

Connie and Kate were both finishing their makeup in the mirror. “Connie, do you think he’ll try anything? I only shaved up to where the dress is...”

“Not sure..Do you want him to try anything?

Kate let out a sigh. “Honestly, no. I just want to have a good time. What about you and Keith? You didn’t quite fill me in on what happened between you.”

Connie finished fixing her hair and makeup. “I’ll tell you tonight! We should get going now to make sure we get there before the boys.

“Come on, Codi! You should totally come to the dance!” Erin was yelling loud enough for people outside to hear.

“I’m not going, and that’s final. I don’t do dances. Now leave me the fuck alone! Stop yelling!”

Bianca and Rei were assigned to be with Jonas, Mason, and Codi.

“Alright, morning students. I am Bianca and this here is Rei! We are both night students and we were given orders to look after you three. There have been two deaths this very day in campus and teachers want to be very careful with everyone.”

Codi didn’t understand why they needed protection from other students. “What makes you two so special? Your colored hair?”

Bianca snapped back at Codi’s comment. “This is natural!”

Rei finally decided to speak up. “We’re not normal like you. I am a vampire, a member of a sacred clan.” He pat Bianca in the head as if she were a child. “This girl right here sees the future.”

Bianca shook off his hand and Codi had another comment against Bianca. “So if you can see the future why didn’t you do something so we wouldn’t end up like this?”

Bianca took a deep breath, but before she snapped back at Codi once again, Rei spoke on her behalf. “It doesn’t work like that, human.”

After a few silent moments Jonas got up. “Is it alright if I read a book in the mean time? There’s not much else to do.”

Erin was in the main area and she’d had enough of Kate’s sobbing. She marched over to where the crying was coming from and started yelling at her.

“Can you just get the fuck over it?! I’m trying to have some quiet time, but you’re ruining EVERYTHING! Honestly, just shut the fuck up!”

Connie was always very calm and always minded her own business, but she wasn’t going to let anyone make Kate even more upset than she already was. She got up and stood in front of Erin.

“How about you shut the fuck up before I beat you up with my fucking paintbrushes in your sleep, bitch! You either calm down or I’ll snatch that bun out of your head real fucking quick!”

Erin took a step back, she didn’t know Connie would ever even say anything like that. Before she took off to her dorm room, Codi had entered the current situation

“Ahh. What a refreshing summer break. Feels good to be back with the bullshit.”

Mason let everyone know that the class was cancelled for the day, then he sat down with the boys and had small chat.

“It’s crazy to think that she’s actually gone... Good thing the dance wasn’t cancelled.”

Codi, sitting across from the boys, frowned at Mason’s comment and snapped back at him.

“Seriously, dude? A teacher dies and you’re happy the dance is still on? You’re ridiculous.” 

She got up and stormed off to her room. Damien couldn’t take his eyes off of Codi when she left the room.
