Thanks for the reviews, chaosmoonstar, Tami the Scene Queen, Levolt, Bere, and Mansvetoba! I hope this chapter is fine... I have to start planning again...

"Cody, please don't leave me." Cody's eyes widened as he turned his way. "What's this all of a sudden, Noah?" Noah grumbled, "Nevermind. Just... Nevermind..." Cody moved closer to Noah,"Noah, is something wrong?"

"No, Cody, nothing's wrong right now. No one is dead. No one is in some stupid game that's killing children." Noah rolled his eyes. Disappointed, Cody frowned and grabbed Noah's arm, "C'mon, Noah, don't start with the sarcasm. You know what I meant."

"I know. I'm sorry, Cody. I... I just don't want you to leave..."

"I would neve-"

"Promise me, Cody. Promise."

"I promis-"

"I mean it, Cody, don't leave me. Don't ever leave me. If you promise me, you better not break it. You better not..." When did I start crying? "You better not break that promise like in the books... In the books... when they promise... They promise ever-so-deeply, but someone ends up dying and leaves them forever..." Cody stayed until he stopped crying. It was rare to ever see him cry. This place- School had a way of changing people... Or was it the situation? That makes more sense... Noah sniffled a little,"Don't tell anyone I did that..." Cody smiled, "Sure thing, Noah. And I... Promise..." They continued on their search. Cody let Noah walk a little ahead. He sighed, "Promise... Out there, at least..."

The class was in chaos. Everyone wanted to get out. It was then that they noticed these rooms had to windows. Heather was furious. "UGH! They are NOT coming to help us! If I die, I'm going to become a ghost and—and—AND HAUNT THEM FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIVES!"

"Calm down, Heather! I'm sure they'll get us out!" Beth exclaimed

"There is only one hour left to save Rm. 233. Gwen, Dawn, and Trent have been eliminated. The Key Holder has obviously decided to run out alone. Good luck with the rest of the game."

"GRRR... STUPID GAME- YOUCH!" Heather hit the office desk and something fell out.

"Look, what is that?" Lindsay pointed at what fell out.

"Move over, loser!" Heather picked up the wooden case. "What the heck is this? It has a stupid key hole!"

Cody and Noah walked by the room and heard this. Cody knocked at the door and immediately asked, "Excuse me?"

"Finally, someone has come to save us!"

"Please repeat what you said earlier," Noah demanded, "We might need that box..."

"ARE YOU KIDDING ME? WE'RE GOING TO DIE IN HERE AND YOU WANT THE BOX?!"

"We know, we know. That case you found—It might help us."

"Repeat what you said, Heather."

"I said this stupid case has a key hole."

"You mean the case with a key hole. The one with the key to get out of this place? You've got to be kidding right?"

"What? We're all going to die! That stupid key that whoever has; it only unlocks this door and this container! HOW ARE WE GOING TO GET OUT?!" As Scott heard this he paused. This can't be happening, he thought. We're all going to die?

"N-No. NoOoO!" Cody and Noah turned around. "Scott?!"

"I am not going to die!"

"You're- Is that the key...?" Noah smacked his own face. Scott had the key, and of course he would want to get out. Scott hid from them so they wouldn't take the key from him. He wanted to get out by himself. Of course. Cody spoke up, "How could you?! How could you just keep that key so selfishly!"

"You're to speak?! WHO brought here in the first place?!" Cody was taken aback. "Yeah, but I-" Cody paused, trying to process what he was going to say, "I didn't know, okay?! I didn't know it'd kill us! I didn't know that he would kill us! I just wanted-" Eyes widening, he gasped and covered his mouth. Scott raised a brow, "Wanted what? Hmmm?" Cody backed away, "N-Nothing!" Noah joined in, "Cody, you need to tell us.. Who that guy is."

"I-I don't know! I don't know what you're talking about! Let go, Scott!" Cody struggled in his grip. "I'm serious, Scott! Let go-" Scott took the knife from Cody's pocket and put it at his neck, causing Cody to gulp and panic. "If anyone dies, it's going to be Cody!"

"Come on, Scott, hold on..."

"Don't start with me, Noah! Cody started this! I'm going to rid of him!" He put the knife closer until...

"Woah, dudes! Chill!" Everyone stopped what they were doing and stared over at Geoff. He gave a shaky, nervous smile, "Put the knife down, Scott, buddy..." He wasn't going to fool anyone with that smile, not after all the deaths. They were all afraid of dying. Bridgette spoke up next, "Does it matter if Cody started it right now? We have to get out, and that should be all that matters right now."

"I agree. We can't waste anymore time, guys." Mike said. Zoey nodded in agreement. Cody was shoved on the floor. "Augh!" Time. Noah asked quickly, "What time is it right now?!"

"Oooh, if this clock has batteries... We could maybe... Oh... No... It's broken..." Noah rolled his eyes. You've got to be kidding me. Some help these batteries were. Stupid anonymous man. Noah assisted Cody from the ground..

"Hahaha! You're all not dead yet?! You've figured out, correct? The key to escape is in room 233! Now what will you do next? You only have 5 minutes to free them!"
