We swivel around almost immediately. No one is inside... Whoever closed the door is now outside.

...Edward...?
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwjele5MqF
I look at Lawrence, who is fearfully looking at me.
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0cqdopgIY
Are we being watched? Heard? Felt?
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAeirwKNHx
"Um... Maybe it was the janitor...? Who happened to miss this puddle of... Food coloring?" Lawrence suggests, totally unconvinced.
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXLVaEiPlr
I'm too scared to leave the room. What if my knife isn't enough protection?
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4LGvj8PFP
"How long can we stay in here?" I ask Lawrence.
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDzLy1kalI
"Well... I managed to sneak a few things from the cafeteria, but it's barely enough for tomorrow's breakfast. So I'd say tomorrow lunchtime. We can sneak out to the cafe and grab everything we can, enough to stay in here until Monday morning," he responds.
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2ZEAgLtOh
It's a good plan... Better than any I could've made up.
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvBNGsL8pg
Lawrence uneasily goes to one of the reclining armchairs. And that's when I remember!
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtf8buK89sJ
"Hey! There are security cameras in here! Maybe we can--" I start.
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCXnmdIKM9
"SHHHHHHH. What if anon can hear us?!" Lawrence whisper-shouts.
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMUdpCg8Dq
I blush a little and walk over to the security cameras. I rewind the camera roll that's outside of the lounge, trying to see if I can find whoever closed the door.
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8tKLREg8e
After a few minutes, I found the part! I pause the tape and look closely but I can't make out anything that jumps out. 'Jesus! This school needs to buy better quality cameras!' I think to myself. All I see is a blurry image of someone in dark clothes. 'Wait a second... I'd recognize that coat anywhere...' I think...
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MTPwIxKeh
I thought I heard a yelp, but I ignore it. I turn around to tell my theory to Lawrence, but... He's gone...!
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcajv2y1lwn
And that's when all the electricity is cut off.
Did I mention I love the dark? Just not in a creepy situation.
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyXTLOUnjk
Edward wouldn't do this... Plus he's dead! But why would he creep the daylights out of me if it were him? I thought... I thought... Oh whatever.
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdOq9aFRFU
I use a flashlight that I always carry around and look for anything useful. And I find... Candles? In a lounge? Well then. I guess teachers do have everything in here.
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHdOaYyPkh
I ignite the lovely candles to illuminate at least a part of the room. And that when I notice the camera monitor is on... They must run on batteries!
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nqqpMIU5g
I quickly shuffle over there and look at all of the cameras. Nothing special. I'm about to walk away when the middle camera monitor catches my eye. It's the Anonymous person... In the coat that belongs to--
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8itZtOS9vS
Oh my God. Anon is holding up a sign towards the camera. Anon knows I'm watching. The message is for me:
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFfCDSyl5a
"You're next."
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwJ2g7LtVs
... Next? What does he mean? Where is Lawrence? Is he dead?! Will I be dead?!
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDbHSEtDPq
Oh... My... God...
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQSC3NOnnM
I know who Anon is.
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZkwkFV2ie
A few days after Edward... abandoned me on Earth..., his house was robbed. The strange thing is that the only things that were taken were from Edward's room.
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOMV1eh4Qh
That's where the coat was. But the coat is no longer in the possession of that household.
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbfqlTah5T
I live in a small town. There are not that many suspects. Only 2. And I know one of them would never rob Edward. That person is too arrogant. Joey has his own refined taste in clothing, far from what's in Edward's closet.
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTf9BsXo9ya
The only other person?
