Chapter 1 Part 2 She brushed it off as a simple nightmare and tried going back to sleep, except she couldn't the dream she had bounced off the walls of her mind daring to be examined. The next morning she awoke to an eerie silence. Emily thought that everyone was still asleep so she slyly went into the bathroom glad she got in there first.

She ran past them not really knowing any of them and tried to pull open the front door of the school realizing it was locked. Her heart suddenly tightened, but she know not why. She walked back over to the group of teenagers. “Hey” Emily asked “Why are the doors locked is today an off day?” Jensen looked at her and said “Stupid girl, don't you see there are no cars here.
