AN: This is one of my first stories that I have ever written and decided to share with everyone because it was so good.

Chapter 1

I was walking along the corridor with my friends. We had just come out of English and were about to go to my favourite subject, science. We had my favourite teacher, Mr. Mercer and I was pretty excited because we were doing chemistry today.

As we waited outside his classroom, one of the girls in my class looked at me and spoke.

"Wynter, do you wash your hair?" her and her mates sniggered. I looked down at the ground effectively ignoring them. My friend Kerry glared at them and told me to just ignore them. I just nodded and we walked into the classroom.

Me and Kerry took our seats beside the door that lead outside, across from the classroom door. We had been given these seats last week and I loved where I sat because I was next to Kerry, and we always enjoy doing science experiments with each other.

Mr. Mercer had started to write up our notes on the board and we copied them down. We were learning about the different reactions between different metals.

School had passed by in a blur and I was at home. I had just finished my homework and was about to go out with some of my friends. I had my coat on and was just tying my lace when my phone rang.

"Hello?" I asked.

"Hey Wynter it's Archie. I was just wandering if Kaoru had talked to you yet? I didn't want to say anything until Kaoru spoke to you first," said Archie.

"Oh, I almost forgot. Yeah, she talked to me on Saturday," I said. We talked for another couple of minutes then I left the house and joined my friends. We were all headed into the Water Works, because it was open later thanks to the summer nearly being here.

We were walking round talking about nothing when my friend gets an idea. "Why don't we go through the trees again. It reminds me of a peaceful forest," she says. We all agree and head into the miniature forest. We were having fun chasing each other about and then we heard a groan. We all stopped and stood still.

"What was that," asked Kaoru. I shrugged and walked around a bend in the path. Lying on the ground was a person, and bent over them was someone I knew all too well. The person on the ground had their head tilted back so their neck was exposed, and the person looked … dead, but not quite.

I gasped, "Archie?"

AN: The first chapter was short but my little sister has asked me to play blocks with her so I promise to have chapter two uploaded soon. XD
