They both eventually arrived at the small eating center, The Cafe as it was called. Dwight sat down as he told him everything he wanted, he then handed twenty dollar bill to Ashton, and Ashton went up to get what was requested. As Dwight sat there he had his mind stuck, glued to the thought of figuring this all out now, no more stressing over it, he needed to get it done, this plan was genius. B- but he was out of any idea of how. First messages, then assemble the 7241 boys with Ashton, but then what? Get some fingerprint samples. Once Ashton got back, he set the food down on the tray it was served with.234Please respect copyright.PENANAdko2ulwqf9

“How in the hell do you enjoy vanilla in your coffee Dwight?” Ashton asked.234Please respect copyright.PENANAx9yeDnfMu4
234Please respect copyright.PENANAW7xPB5i6BE
“I don’t know, I just think it adds more flavor to it without overwhelming the coffee taste, like how caramel does,” Dwight replied. While the two ate, they discussed a bit about their studies and what they’ve done so far. Both of them had delved into their fascinations rather extensively, nothing un-ordinary had happened in any of their classes yet.234Please respect copyright.PENANAGvzSp1dj3B
234Please respect copyright.PENANAo9KLwSG9yZ
“So how are the 7241 boys doing? Well, except for you, you seem to be doing okay,” Ashton said.234Please respect copyright.PENANA7HcCsn7zHS
234Please respect copyright.PENANA6Pj5QD96yD
“They’re good, just, living I guess, I never really saw them for most of the summer. Was in Tennessee, remember?” Dwight asked.234Please respect copyright.PENANAJyjT7KvXFS
234Please respect copyright.PENANAUO1Tn8LZpS
“Ooh yeah that’s right, you did leave for the Summer, I remember. How was that?” Ashton replied.
“It was fine, got to see some family members I hadn't seen in a while, and it was as nice as any vacation is in terms of activities,” Dwight said.234Please respect copyright.PENANAaWovpGgHBj
234Please respect copyright.PENANA0irHkMSzDU
As the two finished their food, they both realized that they had to get going, it was already time for another class, and time had flown by. They both waved each other goodbye for the time being, and Dwight walked toward one of the buildings that house his next class. He entered, and sat down, a million things raced through his mind, but he took a deep breath and relaxed for once. The professor discussed everything, writing swiftly on the board in front of everybody, he had a snap to his voice that wrapped everyone in. He kept on going, and going, and going, and going. He wasn’t going to stop, he was like a whip cracking behind a hurricane, it was nearly impossible to follow. There was no way to catch up, that was when everyone realized in the class that the guy chuckled near the end, once class was done he emailed a video to every one of the class today, stating that he’d be recording his meets every day for them to study with.
Once he exclaimed this to the class, everyone got up and immediately began packing their things to leave. Dwight was one of them, it was going to be weird having to jump on his email every day just to write the notes when doing it in class would be faster, but I guess the extra studying would be more effective for the class guessed. Regardless he was done. He just needed to return home, huddle into his bed and figure all of this out. He’d study later. Schoolwork could wait a day. He finally got home after a long walk and opened his door. Dwight stepped inside, Hunter was there, eating and watching television, Mich was laying down on his phone, and Camden was relaxing and eating as well.234Please respect copyright.PENANA974ULvmljN
234Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7IXwj94q6
“Heeey! Dwight, there you are,” Mich said.234Please respect copyright.PENANA8plBJVvssc
234Please respect copyright.PENANAwzAVwbTEur
“Sup guys,” Dwight said.234Please respect copyright.PENANAvjv9N1lVLj
234Please respect copyright.PENANApLzhZjFJ3v
“How was your day Dwight?” Camden asked.234Please respect copyright.PENANA5fTb0gIRr6
234Please respect copyright.PENANA74ZdNEi36l
“It was busy, a little stressful, I think I’m gonna lay down, o- oh and Ashton said he was coming over, we had some things we're gonna discuss," Dwight said.234Please respect copyright.PENANA3RWG9xVggY
234Please respect copyright.PENANAK4TzLkVF8O
“Alright, well everybody was planning on heading down to The Wing later to have some fun and watch the game, if you and Ashton wanted to come down later we’ll be there,” Mich stated.234Please respect copyright.PENANAaQxWj2l31C
234Please respect copyright.PENANApxVsSftd6S
Dwight thought about it for a second, hopefully, Ashton when he got here could pull them into not going.234Please respect copyright.PENANA7iKaSYghSi
234Please respect copyright.PENANAJCxPVCovda
“I’ll see, I did have a stressful day, I kind of just want to rest,” Dwight replied.234Please respect copyright.PENANAlRtaIH4HoA
234Please respect copyright.PENANAqFjbvQp2lg
“Well alright man, just let us know, push come to shove we’ll come to pick you up and drag ya,” Mich said with a chuckle.234Please respect copyright.PENANAzXKbTTihYM
234Please respect copyright.PENANAcClpl2eVm9
Dwight smiled and made his way to his bunk where he snatched his phone that was still on the charger, hesitantly opening it up before closing it again. “Maybe I should just lay down until Ashton gets here,” he thought, before tapping on the YouTube app, shying away from the messages.234Please respect copyright.PENANANlpfAcQC8B
234Please respect copyright.PENANA31bSS3UoN3
He scrolled through in search of something to watch, something to make him invested in, something perhaps to make him laugh, anything that would relieve stress worked in this situation. Before he did anything however he got out of bed to go to the fridge, he was definitely down to enjoy some more chicken. As he got up he looked around the room to see the others still talking and chilling. He listened in as he threw his chicken breasts into the microwave. 234Please respect copyright.PENANAgsqC9Diis9
234Please respect copyright.PENANAvWoJhlpbb4
"So you'd guys catch up on that art incident?" Dwight heard Hunter say.234Please respect copyright.PENANAloCs5mH6u2
234Please respect copyright.PENANASWIfq9yX4h
"No, what was it about?" Mich replied. Camden didn't reply however but he paid his attention over to Hunter; Dwight did as well.234Please respect copyright.PENANAdHRFGFwhHT
234Please respect copyright.PENANAYW7t3aUXKl
"Dwight, Camden, you two hear about it?" Hunter asked, fighting to break their silence.234Please respect copyright.PENANAdZaD2OuB2O
234Please respect copyright.PENANA1QKOTrIidH
Dwight replied first, "I did, Ashton was telling me about it, apparently the art club leader got in a tussle, but I don't recall who it was with." Dwight finished. 234Please respect copyright.PENANA55MY2W6AzC
234Please respect copyright.PENANA1FSfCE9oYN
"That's what I'd heard, it was Marley and Johnathan," Camden said.234Please respect copyright.PENANAUqEuWbO95b
234Please respect copyright.PENANAlV7U7rKdjA
"Yeah!" Dwight said.234Please respect copyright.PENANAftrnObdYad
234Please respect copyright.PENANAmLYJ9dmiLT
"Anyways, yeah, well apparently it got even worse. Johnathan was talking some shit and things spread around with him and his buds going and beating the girl's brains out." Hunter stated.234Please respect copyright.PENANAOPjuxh7HmC
234Please respect copyright.PENANAUnWxRMUvSt
"Jesus Christ, that isn't right, shouldn't we go and try to stop this?" Mich pointed out.234Please respect copyright.PENANAln2wrXHoP8
234Please respect copyright.PENANAWRogDr9Zli
"And get involved in it further?" Hunter asked.234Please respect copyright.PENANAubPx8Ii8XX
234Please respect copyright.PENANA6NDhBOuCJO
"I don't know guys, you know how Johnny and his friends are, for how big of pieces of human trash they are, I can see them attacking Marley," Camden stated.234Please respect copyright.PENANAPu2S7baIac
234Please respect copyright.PENANA04CU0fzzt1
Dwight didn't say anything as he stood there and tried to keep himself from panicking, he had already made some plans, he didn't want them getting interrupted. Damn it, where are you, Ashton.234Please respect copyright.PENANAtu6XVS0EzS
234Please respect copyright.PENANA25MQVdnNc7
"Guys, I- I have to make an input here. There's a reason I'm having Ashton come over," Dwight said.234Please respect copyright.PENANAHIslF2s8uv
234Please respect copyright.PENANA1J6Xmth972
"What's the reason? You guys get engaged or something," Mich said.234Please respect copyright.PENANAhQMtoxNWrb
234Please respect copyright.PENANAEaC8b66Fz5
"W- What? No. I'm having him come over because we're going to get to the bottom of what happened last night, morning, whatever, everything with the explosion. Look at this." Dwight stated as he walked over and reached for his phone, grabbing it and going into his messages with Audrey, he leaned the phone out to show the others the disturbing messages. The others were shocked and a little uneasy. This wasn't any suicide, I feel as if it was an attack, shit. I don't even think it was a suicide at all. 234Please respect copyright.PENANAVH1frCLiRH
234Please respect copyright.PENANA4i63Adil4R
Everybody sort of looked at each other. 234Please respect copyright.PENANA25x5Ri5sun
234Please respect copyright.PENANAPSjccoxIt6
"And- well what are we supposed to do about it?" Camden stated.234Please respect copyright.PENANAzg4HvSMHWY
234Please respect copyright.PENANARdpuiTXT2q
"We'll figure it out, but clearly shit is going down around campus, and now we have a dead kid, and another missing, I'll be damned if I won't at least try to solve this," Dwight expressed himself firmly,234Please respect copyright.PENANAmYamTHmwXg
and made it apparent what he wanted to be done.234Please respect copyright.PENANA4wJSINfoVd
234Please respect copyright.PENANATdRBnTGIB7
Dwight looked over at the others, they all looked back, something was going through each of their minds, different or not, they didn't look too satisfied, and they all gave a look of confusion and a slight hint of fear. Dwight stopped a big to look at them as well, perhaps he pushed a bit too far; but before he could get a word out, they all heard a knock on their door, it was him.234Please respect copyright.PENANAMsjL5bCpMl
234Please respect copyright.PENANAbn6ePV7e7s
"He's here," Dwight stated.234Please respect copyright.PENANAgUOXauX5XE
234Please respect copyright.PENANAuHobWMAKLt
Dwight moved over to the door and looked out of the eye-hole to make sure it was Ashton. It was, and he let him in. Ashton entered in, wearing something completely different from what he was wearing earlier. 234Please respect copyright.PENANAXYDCy1eDrT
234Please respect copyright.PENANA9KfApWgTWr
As he came in and removed his shoes and greeted Dwight, he looked around to see the awkward atmosphere, everybody looked uncomfortable and a little baffled.234Please respect copyright.PENANAJC4zEDfUKX
234Please respect copyright.PENANAMTs4Clzbin
"Alright, so Dwight has done told us everything Ash, and I just want to know how the hell why we're supposed to be involved in this," Hunter said. 234Please respect copyright.PENANA7tXb0oZtUz
234Please respect copyright.PENANAEwwTX0trPh
Dwight spoke up again, and lead in another approach. 234Please respect copyright.PENANAsIAX2q1pVx
234Please respect copyright.PENANADpWz0Mvl6C
"Listen, charging into this may seem stupid, so never mind, how about we just, go deal with that Johnathan situation first," Dwight said. 234Please respect copyright.PENANAyGitRKyXPW
234Please respect copyright.PENANAMoBeiQlt8D
"Johnathan situation?" Ashton asked.234Please respect copyright.PENANAbMYYFmfDR8
234Please respect copyright.PENANAwsXZRLjoUy
"Johnathan and his buddies were planning on visiting Marley tonight," Mich told Ashton. 234Please respect copyright.PENANAf312iE70iw
234Please respect copyright.PENANAyYUXiegAGB
Ashton's eyes widened as he heard the news, giving Mich a look that Mich only responded with by nodding. Hunter sighed as well and began to talk again.234Please respect copyright.PENANAnNUfKyMM8d
234Please respect copyright.PENANAsMK1Kp9olE
"Alright, listen, let- let's just go handle this situation with Johnny, and then we can figure out what the hell is going on with the whole screwball-ass situation with what happened last night, okay?"234Please respect copyright.PENANAVkM3uZqs4c
234Please respect copyright.PENANAR9SHQxBaAU
Everybody looked over at Hunter and then at each other, Ashton was already fully invested, Dwight now as well, Mich thought about it and jumped in, and Camden, though incredibly against getting in trouble, or even wanting to get involved at all stood for it and decided that he'd go with.234Please respect copyright.PENANAvEt1V1aXGa
234Please respect copyright.PENANAEbo6M2pPvt
"Yeah, let's get this over with though.." Camden stated.234Please respect copyright.PENANAixygWmPv5w
234Please respect copyright.PENANAZCZIoTgc3h
"Let's just make this a done deal," Mich commented.234Please respect copyright.PENANAzWJZ8URkUm
234Please respect copyright.PENANAIZk5hM9gmk
Dwight spoke up firmly. "I'm sure this won't last long, now let's go." 234Please respect copyright.PENANA1I5xdr7Rr1
234Please respect copyright.PENANAXFIeMvYw0N
The group all packed their things, grabbing their bags, emptying them of their school necessities, and instead with a few bottles of water, a flashlight just in case their phones died and this ordeal took a lot longer than they had planned. Camden as well threw a knife in his pocket just in case to protect himself from any chaotic situations that could lead to one of them getting hurt, especially himself. They all looked at each other, they were ready, and they pushed themselves out the door and down the district building's staircase. Once they had got down to the parking lot, they began to adjust more of a strategic plan, they didn't wanna march in, and instead, they called and warned Marley of what could have possibly been an attack. Ashton was closest to her, and so he had called her explaining everything about how Johnny was likely planning on coming to her place, and he stated how they were planning on confronting them. She took the warning seriously fortunately and told them that she'd leave her car in the parking lot to signify that she'd be home but she would stay at her friend's place so that the 7241 boys could do as they wanted to in confronting Johnny and his friends. 234Please respect copyright.PENANAFNKbYcTa1z
Ashton looked at everyone else after hanging up.234Please respect copyright.PENANAOAiJJ3oem7
234Please respect copyright.PENANAN3uexmSjRH
"Alright, what now? Do we just stand in the parking lot and wait for them to show up?" Camden asked.234Please respect copyright.PENANALDjSyZyB57
234Please respect copyright.PENANAFlimq5kspm
"Yeah, let's just stand in the open. Come on man." Mich stated.234Please respect copyright.PENANAyftTLxrjli
234Please respect copyright.PENANAa4gGUWYuCn
"There's shrubbery we can always ambush them," Dwight mentioned.234Please respect copyright.PENANAteugjUQY2x
234Please respect copyright.PENANAdW8UIrzKxS
"Doesn't sound like the worst idea," Mich replied.234Please respect copyright.PENANAZcgxSf40a6
234Please respect copyright.PENANAqZHv7fRwNC
And so they did. They ran up a small hill where some bushes and small trees sat and decided to take cover and look out for when Johnny's group was to show up. They all piled on top of each other, not only to warm themselves from the slight windchill that breezed around them but to stay together, so they could easily communicate without making noise, as to avert being spotted. They spoke to each other.234Please respect copyright.PENANAJIw1c5gDbL
234Please respect copyright.PENANAC3HeZLK8wL
"So guys, what if they don't show up?" Hunter asked.234Please respect copyright.PENANAFaUuwdRubV
234Please respect copyright.PENANANb52LQAaWN
"If they don't show up, we leave," Mich stated.234Please respect copyright.PENANA4t8n1D3RdQ
234Please respect copyright.PENANAmIZvUY8YbA
"Alright, the- wait, what real purpose does it serve us if Marley isn't even here. You warned her right?" Hunter continued.234Please respect copyright.PENANAcgBWim9DUR
234Please respect copyright.PENANApZLJtXjHos
"Yeah.." Dwight said.234Please respect copyright.PENANAkUJFRMCbNf
234Please respect copyright.PENANAu1eRiEHvhv
"Listen, if they show up, and don't go anywhere with their threats, then we just stay here until they leave, alright?" Camden said.234Please respect copyright.PENANAKGJw0v2dyv
234Please respect copyright.PENANAKKxrd7QrLy
The group stayed patient, and suddenly a car pulled around into the parking lot of the dorm building. Everyone's eyes widened as the 7241 boys witnessed a small group of 4, led by the man himself get out of the car, 2 of them with something in hand.
