The corridor echoed as Eli ran along the long and deserted school. His side was dripping blood but he was too worried about Clare to be concerned. He had to find her. Eli had to know she was okay. This killer had been after him for way too long and Eli had enough with this psycho path hurting and killing the ones he cared about. Eli and Clare were in the school library working on their English project and that was when Ghostface attacked them. Every treading step sounded like a heart beating its quick final beats. Eli busted through the doors of Degrassi Community School. He found her. It was too late. The beautiful Clare Edwards that he has come to love was attacked and left for dead, because of him. Her skin sported a pallor tone and she was shaking, by now she lost too much blood. He couldn't save her.

"Eli.." Clare spoke faintly.

"Clare, it should've been me. I wish he came after me instead of you."

"No don't say that, I'm glad you're still alive."

"I love you so much Clare, I always will, and I always have. I'll never forget you. You didn't deserve this." Eli spoke as he tried to blink the tears back.

Clare put on a weak smile and spoke, "I love you too, Eli.''

Clare closed her eyes calmly. The red in her cheeks were gone. She had breathed her last breath as her chest stopped heaving. Her body was completely lifeless. Clare Edwards was dead.

Eli sat in anguish as he felt his phone vibrate. He picked up the anonymous call and said with a trembling voice

"Hello..?"

"Eli! Congratulations. All of your loved ones are dead. Everyone around you is dying. But I'm saving you for last; you'll die when I want you to, Elijah. You're going to suffer." The mysterious voice said before quickly hanging up.

Eli threw his phone out of anger and realized he smashed his new iPhone into pieces. But he didn't care. Nothing meant anything to him anymore, nothing maters. All of his love ones are gone. His parents, reason for living. Just gone.
