Jennifer's Scenario 12
The girls watched the gears slowly turn with one getting higher as they went. Zooey picked Jennifer up and they were ready to jump to the next gear. They waited until the gear turned them right In front of the next one and jumped. They could see light above them, faint, but they could still make it out.
"We're in the Clock Tower." Jennifer said remembering what had happened years ago.
Zooey nodded and jumped to the next gear. Jennifer jumped after her but not far enough. She had one foot up on the gear, and the other dangled. Zooey gave her hand to Jennifer then pulled her up.
"I'm sorry, I was, thinking too much." Jennifer said looking over her shoulder, down into the blackness.
They gradually climbed up all the gears, and made it to the top. In a lone corner, was an altar, with a picture frame? It being dusty, Jennifer wiped it off. She recognized her from three years ago. Kay. Was Mistress Azia her daughter? The boy. Did she want to recreate another Scissorman, but why? A loud screech came from outside. Jennifer and Zooey peered out the large glass clock. In the distance, the school had been hauntingly still, though the noise came from somewhere.
"We should wait here for now, don't you agree?" Jennifer asked Zooey.
"We need medical supplies for your cut." Zooey said noticing Jennifer's hand bleeding.
"And a weapon. We can't hope that the little boy, or Azia come back!" Zooey said looking down the endless flight of stairs.
Zooey ripped off a piece of her silken dress and tied it around Jennifer hand. They looked around the mostly empty room. A door had been once locked, but now the lock lay on the floor next to it. Jennifer opened the door. It seemed to be an office. Tons of newspapers and books were neatly organized on the desk, with a notepad, with notes on it. She picked it up. It had the date of her arrival on it. Zooey tapped Jennifer on the shoulder.
"Look!" She said pointing to a newspaper.
The letters jumped out at Jennifer. CLOCK TOWER MURDERS. What the hell had she been up to? A shotgun plastered up on the wall. Jennifer walked over to it, and took it off the rack. She did not really know anything about guns, but tucked against her side. As Jennifer turned around she saw Zooey with a letter opener.
"It's sharp." Zooey said pressing it against her thumb.
