Chapter 3: Someone or Something
The door was locked! Unbelievable! I mean, I closed the front door but I didn't lock it. Now, I was stuck in here for weekend. Great. Just great. Unless, I can get help, I was here in the cold, haunted school. There was another piece of proof. The door and the lights were all proof that someone or something was here. Right now I had two choices: find out who is here with me or just wait right where I was. I chose to go with my first option. I quickly glanced around the room looking for more clues. While I was investigating, I came across a computer that was turned on. I picked up a chair that was fallen over and sat on it. And before I could read the screen, a message appeared. It said "I KNOW WHO YOU ARE, GWEN. I AM GOING TO GET YOU". Okay, scary. I started to type back, "WHO ARE YOU AND HOW TO YOU KNOW ME?" I nearly jumped out of my chair when I read this message. "I AM THE BURIED MAN FROM FROM 200 YEARS AGO". I couldn't believe my eyes. That was impossible. I knew the legend and it happened near here. This dude was buried alive or something. But he died soon after. I mean, he couldn't still be alive, could he? He died about two centuries ago. But what bothered me the most was, where he was sending these messages from. "WHERE ARE YOU?" I typed back. "I AM IN YOUR SCHOOL" came the reply. My head was spinning as I read those last five words over and over again. My hands felt numb and I began to see things blurry. I, suddenly, was terrified. I knew that this was the end. This person, whoever he is, is in my school.
