Dead Will Return

They started running towards the dormitory. As quick as their feet could take them. On reaching they noticed Stacie and they also saw her drinking red juice.

'Duck' whispered Emma.

After a couple of minutes she finally left.

Eliza said with a shocked face 'What was all that about?

'I don’t know! Was it blood or what?' said Eliza 'But wait we almost forgot about the note. Let's open it and see what is written in it'.

As she unfolded the note, words were written up in blood.

"Is The Tears Of V****** And The Dead Will Return"

'So that's the remaining part' Emma jumped happily.

Eliza continued 'I am so sorry. I did not trust you in the first place'

'Its okay' she replied quickly. 'We've got to inform the others before any other people or students disappear like that'

'Wait, we will inform our friends first then the rest later cause they will not believe us in the first place' Eliza said.

'But what if others disappear like that'. I don’t think that be safe'

'Hmm, you have a point which I support but right now only Cedrick, Fendi, Drake and Carlos only'

'Okay let's go' Emma said not even waiting for another minute to pass.

It was almost time. Arts period had already begun. They hurried to their class and it seemed that their teacher Mrs.Mc Terrany was in a very good mood that she was literally distributing chocolates to everyone. Noticing that they quickly got inside the class and sat in their respective places.

'Psst, Cedrick listen we just found something interesting' Eliza said

'Meet us behind the secret entrance of history doors after class' Emma added.

History doors were situated very inside the school where all old things and stuff were kept.

Now, even Cedrick was burning with curiosity.

'What must have happened?' words circling in his mind. He was so lost that he did not notice that their Defence teacher Mr.Micro entered their class. He was disturbed by a mosquito which was buzzing in his ear. It did not take long for Cedrick to realize Mr.Micro was announcing something.

'So, you all can enter your names before Saturday' Mr.Micro ended.

Being a brainwave he understood that it surely must have been another tournament and that he was asking the students to enter their names. Cedrick was always a champion in the grave egg hunt and he was sure he would his name this year too.

Suddenly, the bell rang. Everybody rushed out of the class and Cedrick went to the place where he was supposed to be.

'Psst,' a voice startled him. His heart pounded.

'It is us' said Eliza and Emma together in a cracked voice.

'Whoa! you people just sacred me' Cedrick said but now all normal.

'Listen' and they narrated what all happened.

'Oh my gosh why is this all happening we don’t need the dead. Listen, there's a history that the unwanted dead will return and that they would suck the blood of every innocent person. We cannot let that happen and Vascara is the leader. The drops of Vascara's tears can keep the dead awake but to do that we must kill Vascara himself or kill someone already dead but awake.' Cedrick related.

'You knew this much? And we didn't know that wow!' exclaimed Emma.

'Yeah but I thought it was all a joke and I needed a proof to prove that it was right and you have done it BRAVO!'

Cedrick said happily.

'So that means Stacie is a dead person but she needs the tears to be awake' Emma said in a cracked voice.

Eliza noticed Emma was frightened and taken aback cause Stacie had asked her to get the tears. Emma suddenly remembered about the Bloody Human written up in blood in the mess menu and told them about it.

Then suddenly Fendi, Drake, Carlos spotted them and came.

Cedrick continued 'If this all continues to take place then Magarita wont be a safe place any more'

Eliza said 'Then does that not mean everyone has to return to their homes and leave this academic year.'

'I am afraid so' Cedrick said with a sad expression on his face.

Fendi, Drake and Carlos did not know what was going on but before Emma could tell them, they were interrupted by the head master of the school.

'I don’t think students are allowed to be in this area! Cant you read 'RESTRICTED' written up here' he said angrily.

'We are so sorry we needed a private place to discuss something important' Cedrick said honestly.

'What is so important to you than studies?' The headmaster replied quickly.

'Sorry we wont repeat it again Drake , Fendi and Carlos said together in a polite manner.

'This time I am sparing you but remember next time I see you people lurking around here or anywhere else straight away suspension'

He walked away angrily.

'Phew! We are close to being expelled. Hope we do not land into any more trouble' said Eliza.

'Let's go to the school garden and discuss it over their' Fendi added.

They all walked quietly to the lobby and then entered the elevator which took them to the ground floor. It was a pleasant weather. The sun could barely be seen. They found an empty bench. Without wasting any more time quickly seated themselves.

'So what's our plan?' Cedrick said.

'But we three don’t know what is going on!' exclaimed Carlos.

Then Eliza started telling them all about it. After finishing---

'Oh Shit!' Fendi blurted.

'I know! Shit! That is what I have been telling all the time' Emma said but this time with a smile on her face.

'Listen let's drop this whole thing out. We will continue our mission after a week. Then our exams would be over so we would have a whole month of holidays.' Drake said.

'But you don’t understand this is a serious matter. Do you just want to se people disappear in front of your eyes and do you want to see 'THE RETURN OF THE UNWANTED DEAD' again?' Emma said very angrily.

'Fine fine everyone calm down! We all are really exhausted. We need to refresh ourselves' the head boy said.

'We will make the plan tomorrow' Eliza added.

And they all left for the dormitory.
