PROLOGUE

~*~*~*~*

Albert Heights Girls' School

Mt Star, California

Helen Samson stood at the edge of the staircase and leaned over the edge. "Hey, Sara – you get our Physics homework written down?"

Sara Thompson, her best friend, stared back up from the ground outside the science building. "I thought it was your turn to listen to Physics!"

"I was distracted," Helen replied. "Daniel asked me out at lunchtime…hold on I'll come down."

Helen grabbed her books and pushed her way down the stairs in-between the other students. She finally reached the bottom and grinned at Sara, who in return slapped her.

"Ow, what was that for?" Helen asked.

"You didn't tell me!" Sara exclaimed. "What did he say? Did he ring you?"

"Down side of being in a girls' school…no he turned up at the front gate!" Helen told her, "Ms Peters almost had a fit when she saw him there, sent him straight back to where he'd come from."

Sara's eyes grew wide. "Oh my god that's so sweet – he wagged school for you."

Helen blushed and pulled on a silver chain hung around her neck, revealing a dolphin hanging off the chain, hidden by her school dress.

"Wow, did he buy you that?" Sara asked.

Helen nodded. "I can't wait – we're going out tonight!"

"Already?" Sara asked.

"This is the best day of my life," Helen replied.

Sara smiled and nodded, not that she really agreed with her best friend – knowing Helen she'd be over him in a week or two. But she was happy for now that's all that mattered.

"Hey I just gotta go get my Geography book from my locker – I'll meet you on the courts?" Helen said.

"Sure thing," Sara replied. "I'll see you in a few minutes."

Helen nodded and ran off towards her locker. Sara wandered to the courts and conveniently found a basketball lying on the ground in one of the bushes. She picked it up and started throwing the ball at the hoop. It kept missing but she kept trying, the continuing 'bang' of the board being the only noise she could hear.

Suddenly from the distance there was a loud scream, multiple screams to be exact. Sara looked across at the locker area, everyone who was still hanging around was running towards the art rooms. Her curiosity got the better of her and she ran over to where everyone else was, standing in horror.

She pushed her way through the crowd to the front only to find Helen's body sprawled on the ground, blood everywhere. She covered her mouth with her hands only to find her own hands covered in blood.

"No…" she stepped back. "No not again!"

She turned around and ran out from the crowd, running as fast and far away from them as she possibly could.
