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

...Edward...?
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4TO6ilF3h
I look at Lawrence, who is fearfully looking at me.
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBMSYbEE3O
Are we being watched? Heard? Felt?
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoU0MplsqgP
"Um... Maybe it was the janitor...? Who happened to miss this puddle of... Food coloring?" Lawrence suggests, totally unconvinced.
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWZmWgsFB3
I'm too scared to leave the room. What if my knife isn't enough protection?
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjtAUquutY
"How long can we stay in here?" I ask Lawrence.
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbAhnOCc1t
"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.
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9JaQrsNLP
It's a good plan... Better than any I could've made up.
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bgJu1zJRQ
Lawrence uneasily goes to one of the reclining armchairs. And that's when I remember!
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPGknemL4j
"Hey! There are security cameras in here! Maybe we can--" I start.
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzXdFsX4rV
"SHHHHHHH. What if anon can hear us?!" Lawrence whisper-shouts.
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93zqGk0FTa
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.
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQLKyryFBL
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...
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VqFXEs17P
I thought I heard a yelp, but I ignore it. I turn around to tell my theory to Lawrence, but... He's gone...!
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSU6lKOLy7A
And that's when all the electricity is cut off.
Did I mention I love the dark? Just not in a creepy situation.
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GdrJEOY2v
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.
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yOA1CiKWo
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.
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwMJiCf8nP
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!
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXUklfPG5v
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--
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DD2ARhTcO
Oh my God. Anon is holding up a sign towards the camera. Anon knows I'm watching. The message is for me:
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXV4R1s00u
"You're next."
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2UPqQHbAs
... Next? What does he mean? Where is Lawrence? Is he dead?! Will I be dead?!
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAB8UMQ9SY3
Oh... My... God...
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhITstZnHL
I know who Anon is.
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZltRoLGneE
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.
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmTItySPb7
That's where the coat was. But the coat is no longer in the possession of that household.
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcR9ulvrD72
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.
618Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtO3alsV3wx
The only other person?
