What the heck is going on? Is this some kind of a joke? Are you kidding me? Is it like a prank?" Shawn asked freaking out.
Micheal kept a hand on his shoulder for support and smiled. Probably that's the reason Shawn calmed down a bit.
Suddenly the alarm clock started ringing.
"Damn it's 5 am." Jason said
"Yes, we need to be home before our parents find out that we weren't at home the whole night." Aphrodite said.
"Serena, I think this has to be a secret between all of us, it would be better if Don't tell up your family" Jared said
"But-" I was about to say something
"I guess, Jared is right, we need to keep this a secret." Tom said
"We all will meet in recess, this problem seems big to me."
Everyone agreed and started leaving, only Jared waited the very end.
"Serena you okay?" He asked, seeing me shaking.
Me some how controlling my fears and emotions replied, "Yes, Jared. Thank you for coming... yk.."
"Shhh" He said and went for a hug. At that present I took it as a friendly hug which I actually needed and hugged him tighter
"Everything's gonna be alright, Don't worry." Jared said
"But Jared- Uncle Ben....." I was about to say something
"Shhhh, chill, relax." I finally came out of this arms. I did feel awkward.
"Okay, it's time for me to go" He Said and kissed on my forehead which left me shocked and left.
"What the...." I saw about to curse, that's when I heard Tom voice, we hugged eachother and cried till the dawn.
In school I wasn't able to concentrate at all. Each and every moment spent with uncle Benjamin was splashing back. Finally it was recess. We all met behind the school.
"Now what are we supposed to do?" Jason said
"Forget everything, getting involved in something like this seems really scary. I think we should concern some authorities." Shawn said
"Have you lost it?" Alan shouted
"Police was involved in this shit, did you forget?"
"My uncle lost his life protecting that book, Alan had to fly for miles to be able to reach up this news to me. Now it's my turn. I need to destroy this curse book somehow. It's fine if you are scared and dont wanna be involve in this. I'm alone enough to do this work."
"Serena, we all are with you and no one leaving anyone." Aphrodite said
"Right Shawn" Aphrodite stare at Shawn giving him a death glance.
"Yeahhhh..." Shawn said.
"Serena, let's not waste time. Read the puzzle, we need to sought this out as soon as possible."
Hint: 1
" How good is chemistry
Find it in the cemetery
42 at day 43 at night is a mystery
Only a mathematician related to history"
"What the fish?" Alan said
"What the heck is this chemistry, history, mystery." Jason said
"Wait did this riddle maintain cemetery." Tom Asked
"Everyone shut up let me think." Micheal shouted.
He saw the riddle one more time and started figuring out things.
" A cemetery.... interesting." He said
"Is it the European cemetery which has 42 Graves in the day and it is said that it becomes 43 in right?" Shawn asked.
"Absolutely true. And the 43rd grave is said to be a mathematician scholar who was killed mercilessly."
"Damn" Tom said
"I can see, where this is going." Maria said.
"What?" I asked, she didn't reply anything this time too.
"So wait a second, you all mean that we have to go to that cemetery at night, what that mathematician grave suddenly appears and all sought of horror activities take place?" Jason said
"I guess we are all gonna fine some of our answers there only." Alan said.
