Matthew 27:4 I have sinned by betraying innocent blood
12:00 am...Veronica was in the living room, her father won't be home until seven in the morning. she sat down on the couch in her pink baby doll pajamas she has her blanket and pillow so she could wait on her father. she lays down pulls the covers on her and closed her eyes.
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
She heard knocks from her back door, she got up and looked out the window
"Reggie?" Veronica question
Veronica unlocked the door and let him in, he looked worst than ever. not only he was pale because of the flu, but he also looked like he saw a ghost he was sweating taking a very heavy amount of breath and there was six-inch cut o his arm he was bleeding, Veronica notice and grabbed a kitchen towel and put pressure on his arm, they walked into the living room and sat down,
"What happened?" she asked
Reggie took a deep breath and calmed down a little bit, he picked up the remotes and turned on the television to the news,
"We interrupt this program that Belkington High School has suddenly caught on fire, not only the school but the streets of Belkington were on fire as well. cars, Buildings, street lights, even utility poles were destroyed, obliterated, and ablaze. over 238 people died in disaster 23 were injured and only 15 survive. I'm here with Henry Millers the coach of the school and one of the survivors of the disaster, Mr. Millers do you have any ideas what happened to the school." said the reporter
"Everything was just normal," Coach Henry began "And then, this paint came out of nowhere and landed on two of our students and this smell of manure it was just vile every student in the gym just laugh at them. and my friend the principal, Greyson Thrailkill and I felt betrayed and dishearten from our pupils, I tried to calm them down...but..."
He stopped for a moment and then takes a deep breath
"What..." the reporter questioned, "What happened?"
"I fell down background by some kind of force out of nowhere...and two of student just stood there with this anger expression on their faces as every door closed by themselves and the building started to shake, we never had an earthquake before in Virginia, and then their eyes turned black..." He tried not to cry "and then, all hell broke loose."
"Thank you, Mr. Millers, do you have anything to say before we move on?"
Coach Henry wipe a tear out of his eyes and face the camera with the look of guilt and sympathy on his face
"Yes...Reggie if you're watching this right now, I want to say...I am...sorry..." Henry quoted
"Whose Reggie Mr. Millers?" The reporter asked
Reggie turned off the TV and looked at Veronica looked horrified not only her friends are dead and injured but she was also worried about Johnny and Matthew safety
"Where's Johnny and Matthew?!" Veronica questioned
they heard sobbing from outside they ran to the window and saw the twins crying and sobbing as they went upstairs to their porch, they tried to open the door but it wouldn't open, Reggie and Veronica went outside to go next door,
"Johnny Matthew, what-UGH!" She covered her nose "Wh-What is that smell?"
The twins just started to cry and collapse to the ground and cover their faces with their yellow-painted cow manure hands, Veronica got down and try to ignore the smell and uncover there face and look at them with a confuse and worried expression
"Are two alright, what happened?" Veronica asked "Reggie and I saw what's on the news, everyone is dead and injured only fifteen survive, what happened?"
Johnny sucks up his tears and gulped down his snot and took a deep breath, he tries to remember what happened while Matthew looked up with puppy eyes
"We don't know...Paint and this awful smell came out of nowhere, everyone laughed at us! everything went black and now we just walked crying with this smell that we don't know what it is, and the door was lock and now we just want our Dad and Uncle Jeremiah!" Johnny cried
Reggie didn't believe what Johnny said out of his mouth, it was impossible that everyone laughed at them, the whole school did a pity vote on them because what the twins have to go throw. Veronica felt betrayed and heartbroken, Reggie...he didn't know what to fell about their situation, he sat down on the porch stairs and rubbed his eyes for five seconds and then opened them again, he looked across the street and looked horrified about what he saw, he saw Betty Sawyer holding an ax with the eyes of a psychopathic killer and a smile so sinister that it gave him a chill crawl, he snaps out of it and saw nothing, maybe he needs to drink some water and rest.
"I think we need to go back to your place, Veronica," said Reggie in a cold sweat
"B-B-But what a-about our Uncle Jerry, we told him t-that we be h-home by Midnight..." Matthew sniffle
Veronica looked through the window and saw nothing in the house, she helps the twins up and her, Reggie, Johnny, and Matthew walked to her house. when they went inside they didn't even notice that Uncle Jeremiah was in the house all along, he came out of his hiding place under the trap door that he made when he first moved in holding an eight-inch chef knife.
