Lost

Tracy screamed in horror when the ax's spike came down on her head. She fell down with a thud, while everyone in the class gasped in horror. Standing above Tracy, who is now in a pool of her own blood, was a girl, who was laughing. She held the ax firmly in her hands, and hacked at Tracy again. She bent down to the girl, and picked up the head that she just chopped off. She showed it to everyone else, with lifeless eyes, and no remorse. Lots of blood was spilling out of the bottom of the neck. The sight of it made 1 or 2 people throw up. Everyone was backing away from her until they hit the wall. They would run for the door if they could, maybe even send one out to run and escape while the girl was chasing the one, but they knew they wouldn't be able to pull it off. The girl dropped the head onto the floor, and kicked it towards the students. They all moved out of the way so it won't touch them.

Then, out of the crowd of students, someone screamed. Everyone looked in the direction the scream came from. It was Annette. She dropped to her knees, and covered her eyes, even though there weren't any tears coming out. "How could you?" she asked. Her best friend, Natalie, came up beside her, and asked, "Why would you do something like this?" She was doing a very good job at not showing how scared she was. The girl just stared at the 2 like they were bugs. She now held the ax in her right hand. She was tired of school. This never would've happened if that girl had just left her alone… but she didn't. Instead, she chose to annoy and irritate her whenever she could, and that's what got her killed. She walked up to the Natalie girl, and pushed her down with all her might, right onto the hard floor. Gasps and murmurs went around the classroom. She didn't care though. She loved all the attention she was getting. She loved how everyone was afraid of her right now. When she got back up onto her feet, she yelled, "What's wrong with you?" She lowered her head, looking as if she was guilty for what she had done to Tracy, but she wasn't. She lifted her head, showing how lifeless her eyes still are, and began to cackle madly. She knew she was going insane, but she didn't care. She didn't care about anything anymore.

Then, out of the corner of her eye, she saw someone tiptoeing their way towards the door. Still cackling, she threw her ax at the boy. It hit him in the head, knocking him unconscious. Annette and Natalie ran to the boy, along with some of the other students. Usually, this school in Ibaraki, Japan, wasn't loud or tense. Today was just a special day. She looked down, and noticed the shirt of her serafuku uniform was splattered with blood, along with the yellow tie. Her blue sailor collar was still clean, but her blue skirt was very bloody. Tracy's didn't even look blue anymore. The boy regained consciousness, which made the people around him happy. She smiled a little, feeling pleased for herself. Too busy thinking of what she was going to do next, the girl didn't notice Natalie walking up to her, until she was slapped in the face. She couldn't believe it. Someone slapped her, even though they knew she was capable of killing people. She turned to face Natalie, and realized that Natalie wasn't scared because she didn't have her ax anymore. She grabbed Natalie by the hair, and said, "Why you little brat!" She backed Natalie up against a wall, looked her in the face, since Natalie's eyes were closed from her hair being pulled, and said calmly in a low voice, "You just may be my next victim". Natalie was scratching at the other girl's hands, trying to get her to let go of her hair, but it was no use. The girl was too strong for her. Then, she grabbed the other girl's hair, the way hers is being held, and yanked. She heard a yelp before she was punched in the face and blacked out.

It wasn't long before Natalie waked up hearing her name being called over and over again by a familiar voice. She opened her eyes all the way, and saw Annette staring down at her. "What happened?" she asked. "You were punched…" she said quietly. Natalie saw the sadness in her friend's eyes, and frowned. She touched her cheek that just got wet. She looked at her hand, expecting to see water, but she didn't. It was blood. She looked in the direction it came from, and saw a classmate of her lying of the floor, with his neck slit. Apparently, the girl must've gotten her ax back, she thought calmly. Then, she realized that she and Annette weren't safe where they were.

She got up, along with Annette, and realized she was standing near the opposite side of the classroom, instead of where she was when she blacked out. Annette must've dragged me over here… but how'd she do that without getting killed? Natalie thought. Before she had the chance to ask, she saw the girl approaching them. "What do you want?" she asked the girl. The girl she actually felt sorry for, since she was always being picked on by Tracy and her 2 friends, Ethel and Ronnie. She looked around and searched for them, until, finally, she found them crouched together underneath a table that was against the wall.

The girl noticed that Natalie was staring at something or someone, and saw the 2 girls, whose eyes got big when she turned around and looked at them. An evil grin spread across her face as she walked over to the 2. She crouched down in front of them and said, "I can't believe I forgot all about you two." She grabbed both of them by their hair, and yanked them out from beneath the table and onto their feet. She tied each of them to a chair with rope that was in the classroom's closet.

Then, she took a blade out of her over-the-shoulder bag, and laughed. She cut some of their hair out with the blade, which was painful for most of the students to watch. Even if they didn't want to watch, the girl forced them to, saying that anyone who doesn't watch will be tortured next. She scratched both of their arms a bunch, making their arms bleed. She did the same with the legs, laughing when they grimace at the pain. After that, she did something worse. She untied Ethel and made her lay on the table she and Gira were hiding under, and tied her there. She made sure the palms of Ethel's hands were showing instead of the back of them, and then she stabbed both of Ethel's palms with the blade, making her cry out in pain, while Gira was watching in terror, knowing that she'll be next. Then, to end the pain, she stabbed Ethel in the neck. Everyone knew the knife went completely through the neck, and that she's dead.

The room was silent, until Gira went berserk. "No! Please! I don't want to die! No!" The girl struggled to get Gira onto the table, but she managed after grabbing Gira by the neck and sort of throwing her up onto it. She tied her to the table the same way she did with Ethel. Ronnie's uniform was now covered in Ethel's blood, making her scream even more. Natalie wondered why no one has heard anything, and that's when she sees, through the classroom's door's window, their teacher, Mrs. Gars, hanging from the ceiling. The girl caught Natalie staring out the door's window, and said, "Yeah, she's dead. I stabbed and then hung her." Then she started stabbing at both of Ronnie's palms without any emotion. This time, the students didn't watch since she didn't force them to. Ronnie's cries stopped as soon as the girl stabbed her in the neck.

Then, Natalie remembered something important. She remembered that she has her phone in her little hand-purse, which was inside her desk. She could call the police, and ask for help, even though it's too late for Tracy, Ethel, Ronnie, Mrs. Gars, and the boy with the slit in his neck who lay dead on the ground with his eyes open. She slowly walked over to her desk, and quickly snatched her purse out of her desk without the girl seeing. Then, she quietly hurried back to her spot next to Annette, and secretly dialed in 911, and waited.

It seemed like forever until someone picked up. "Hello," the man on the other end said. "What's the emergency?" Her hands trembled as she scooted back into an opening between 2 cabinets. "A girl in my class has killed 4 students and our homeroom teacher. Please help us," she whispered into the phone. "What's the address?" the man asked. She was about to answer when she realized she could just say the name of the school, so she told him that instead. "Alright," he said afterwards, "We'll be there as soon as we can." Thank goodness, she thought to herself happily. She winked at Annette, signaling that the call was successful. Annette sighed in relief, while Natalie put her phone away. She scooted out from in between the 2 cabinets, and sat next to Annette, who looked very relieved. Natalie felt bad for Tracy, Ethel, and Ronnie, even though the 3 were sometimes very mean. She noticed blood dripping from the side of the table that Ethel and Gira were tortured on, and thought that the girl must've left Gira there instead of moving her, which was a bad idea, since the police would arrive very soon.

Natalie listened to what the girl was saying to everyone else. "Does everyone understand?" Everyone nodded except for Natalie. Understand what? Natalie thought to herself. She raised her hand. The girl saw her immediately. "Yes?" she asked. She didn't seem as insane as she did before, which was most likely a good thing. "Could you repeat the last part, again?" Natalie asked. She knew it was a bad idea to ask that, since it would mean she wasn't paying attention, which could lead to bad things. "Sure…" the girl said, with an evil grin. The same evil grin she had when she found Ethel and Ronnie. "If you all don't do what I say, you'll be killed."

Natalie nodded, showing that she understood. The girl smiled, but it was different. It was innocent looking, even though she wasn't innocent. She looked as if she hadn't killed 5 people. Natalie raised her hand again, and asked, "What made you do all of this?" Natalie thought the girl would come and kill her for asking such a question, but she didn't. Instead, she looked down, and said, "If you really want to know, then I'll tell you… It all started this morning…"
