Here's chapter two. I was going to make it much longer, but I was pleased with how it came out, and felt if I kept it going any longer people would lose interest. I said it would be better then chapter one, didn't I hope you enjoy vwv

Human lives are a symphony, Composed in a key of want.

Give, take we know no boundaries

Our never ending lack of worth, When the time calls for it, pride takes the stage

And we fight with our all. But in the end,

Every human is pitiful.

A cadaver left for the birds.

The sunset was always beautiful. Almost like its fake.

Sadie enjoyed watching it. Calm always settled over her, an almost bittersweet feeling that she couldn't place. The sunset was all she liked though. The sunset was fierce, bold oranges and reds, soft pinks and a promise of inky black far off. The afternoon sky was a different story though. Always blue, always bright and clear, as if it didn't have a care in the world.

She never saw dawn, though. In fact, Sadie couldn't remember what dawn looked like. She'd wake up in front of her school, standing at the gate as students trailed around her in the standard brown uniform, small talk mixing together to create a sea of noise. Waking up always startled her – in fact, what does her bed even look like? Did she even have a bed?

White noise filled her thoughts, and she grasped her head. However, as soon as it had begun it was gone. "What…"

The hall way was empty. Why was she in the hallway? She didn't remember leaving the classroom. Was I even in the classroom?

Sunlight streamed through the large windows, setting the white walls aflame. Doors lined her right side, entries to classrooms she had never been in and never would. Swallowing her growing unease, the blonde took an uneasy step forward. No white noise, no alarm, nothing- why would there be anything? Now I'm being paranoid.

Pushing herself forward, her steps clacked loudly on the tile floor. I need to get home. No wonder the school's buildings empty, it's way past school hours.

But hadn't she just arrived?

"Sadie?"

Jumping, she turnt around and came face to face with Emma, the student council president.

It was morning.

Emma looked at her strangely, tilting her head a bit to the side. The red heads blank brown eyes seemed much more unnerving then usual. "You seem a bit confused. Did you get enough sleep last night?" "I-" she stuttered, looking around at the other students entering the school grounds, the chatter muffled over her pounding heart.

"Oh well," Emma began, smoothing her uniform down, the brown vest unruffled and perfect as usual. "Today we are doing student reviews. May I please see your bag?" This isn't the first time this has happened.

White noise. Her vision went momentarily blank, breathing picking up pace as it seemed her hurt would explode from her chest. Vision clearing in an instant, she was left winded and whiplashed. What is going on?!

"I,I don't have a bag, Emma. You know that." She began, staring at the smiling face of her best friend.

"Let's see…" Her friend continued, her hands grasping air and moving about like she was looking through a bag. "Ah! Student I.D., all your text books, No.2 pencils… even an extra pair of socks." Suddenly looking up, her stare seemed to see right through Sadie. "Your thigh highs are proper, and even your nails are trimmed and perfectly clean!"

Oh, god. Pushing past the girl, she shoved other students out of way, running into the school building. Still, she could hear her "friend" talking, like she was standing right next to her. "You are a model student, Sadie Faust! You are what others look up too! I hope you have a great day!"

Rounding the corner (pushing more students out of the way- no one seemed phased though, talking to each other like nothing happened. ) courtyard doors in sight, pushing through more students, she opened the white double doors-

Bodies.

Amidst the bright, perfect flowers, the bubbling fountain and the path leading to the church; bodies of students lay on the walking path, piled on top of each other and leading up to one man-

"Professor Desjardins?" Her body went cold in fear. He stood tall, lad coat so white it hurt, black hair unruffled and slicked back. Slowly, oh god, he turnt. Black eyes met baby blues, and Sadie found that she couldn't see his pupils.

Neither moved. Minutes seemed to tick by, both sizing each other up in a battle of wills. Finally, he made the first move.

He stepped through one of the freaking bodies.

"You're lying,' her brain shouted. 'That's not possible!' 'No, we aren't!' her eyes cried back, 'He just stepped through the bodies!' With each step he made, a body dissolved into pixels, before vanishing entirely.

Sadie Faust was known for her bravery. For never running away, no matter how dire the situation. But she wasn't dumb.

Turning back towards the school, she ran back through the doors-

And nearly collided with the school nurse.

Jaz was standing in the middle of the hallway, her own lab coat blinding white and golden curls perfect. Glancing over the girls shoulder, her eyes came across fellow student- Walt Stone.

"What is it, brother?" her voice was like bells, bright and filled with life. Walt took a step back like she had just shouted at him in tongues, dark eyes wide with fear. Jaz took a step forward, reaching a hand out in concern. "What's wrong brother, did something happen?" Her voice was filled with worry, but Walt just turnt and ran back down the hall.

Jaz let out a sound almost like that of a whine, before turning around and seeing Sadie. A bright smile graced her pretty features, and she opened her arms as if to hug her. "Sister!"

Stomach dropping and a scream at her lips, she ran.
