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

...Edward...?
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkyLLuNCse
I look at Lawrence, who is fearfully looking at me.
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjbLeQOnzJ
Are we being watched? Heard? Felt?
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEB6NRVwYsk
"Um... Maybe it was the janitor...? Who happened to miss this puddle of... Food coloring?" Lawrence suggests, totally unconvinced.
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXIuhfNgId
I'm too scared to leave the room. What if my knife isn't enough protection?
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOPMDqAT0Z
"How long can we stay in here?" I ask Lawrence.
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpyImbSbgN
"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.
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxAQCdIj70
It's a good plan... Better than any I could've made up.
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3k9BsHNENs
Lawrence uneasily goes to one of the reclining armchairs. And that's when I remember!
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DN6uS6aqB
"Hey! There are security cameras in here! Maybe we can--" I start.
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHI1Pu0wxVh
"SHHHHHHH. What if anon can hear us?!" Lawrence whisper-shouts.
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1iDHM0RXuy
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.
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPg8q07AZX9
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...
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NZMJ5URl0
I thought I heard a yelp, but I ignore it. I turn around to tell my theory to Lawrence, but... He's gone...!
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tNCWnW4tT
And that's when all the electricity is cut off.
Did I mention I love the dark? Just not in a creepy situation.
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NJl7NQ1Ty
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.
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUtavjUJBd
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.
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzavXOekFzo
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!
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjngoD8ln8
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--
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUob4rQSCm2
Oh my God. Anon is holding up a sign towards the camera. Anon knows I'm watching. The message is for me:
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAXF3I1RRr
"You're next."
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hurbS4Nu5
... Next? What does he mean? Where is Lawrence? Is he dead?! Will I be dead?!
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxE5LjaTLit
Oh... My... God...
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkgHK5VYZD
I know who Anon is.
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNwmnyvYu9
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.
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHLEstqrU9
That's where the coat was. But the coat is no longer in the possession of that household.
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kkABiZmZN
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.
715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9w3lXGg83o
The only other person?
