You walk slowly down the hallway, to you it was like walking in slow motion. With Math teacher Baldi walking right by your side, his arms crossed behind his back. But before you know it, thr two of you are standing in front of a Bsoda machine. You stand there confused, Baldi steps in front of the machine. To your surprise, he opens the Bsoda machine, revealing a secret hallway. Baldi looks slightly down at you.

"Well go on in."

He says, you stand where you are, still slightly confused. You choose to take a step back. Baldi did not look pleased, he spoke.

"Go, it's not dangerous."

Your first instinct is to yell at him, to curse him out for hurting you and locking you at the school. And now wanting you to go down into a secret hallway. Most likely sending you to your death. You want to run, but where would you run? You know that he will find you, and that he will attack you without hesitation. You found yourself right up against the wall opposite of Baldi and the secret hallway. Baldi sighs and looks to you, saying.

"Don't do this now. Just go in."

You stand there, not knowing how to respond, at this Baldi tales a step towards you. Your heart starts racing and you close your eyes, but to your surprise, Baldi places his hand on your shoulder and said.

"I'll go in with you, if you want."

At that you say, "No thank you sir, I'll be okay."

He lets go and you walk into the secret hall. And just down the hall you see a room. You turn back and see Baldi about to close the door, he stops and speaks to you again.

"We will talk in the morning, goodnight."

With that, he closes the Bsoda machine door so you walk down into the hall to the room. To ypur surprise, you find a bed. Complete with mattresses, sheets, pillow, and blanket. Exhausted, you plop on the bed, not even bothering to go under the covers. You lay down in bed and stare up at the ceiling. There are no windows, and the light had come from a lamp by the bedside. You begin to think.

You think of poor Mrs. Plumpkin, worried sick and not knowing where you are. You think about your friend who is probably worried about you and his missing notebooks. You thinl abouy what will happen to you, and wonder how how everyone in the maze-like school ended up the way they are. You think of Professor Baldi, the math teacher you had this year. Who you trusted, or you thought you could, who chased you like a ticking time bomb. Who beat you and is the reason you are trapped here. You begin to cry. Scared of the fact you could be stuck there till you die. Unless you figure a way out.

You roll over to the side and turned the lamp off. You hope to God there can be a way out. Finally, you manage to fall into sleep.

You wake up feeling quite rested and better. You rub the sleep from your eyes, look around, and then yesterday's events come flooding back. You feel your heart sink, you take a deep breath, today was the first day to finding a way out. You sit up and turn the lamp on, lighting the wondowless room. Then you remember the notebooks, before you can leave, you must find the notebooks. The last time, you managed to find six, but never found the sventh. You realize that the other notebooks have gone. You try to think of where they all could be. Could they be in the classroom where Mr. Baldi knocked you right out? Could they have been put back in each classroom? Could they be somewhere else? There was only on way to find out You stand out of bed and walk into the hallway where you came in. You see the door and slowly you open it, and walk out. You see that the hallway is quiet, no one is in sight. You take this chance, so, you close the Bsoda machine behind you. And you start walking down the hallway.
