Chapter 1 - Mystery Murders

SCENE 1: CRIME SCENE

The night was heavy with silence, broken only by the wailing of sirens.

A police van soed through the dark, deserted streets, it's flashing lights cutting through the gloom. The chaos of urgency bounded off the cold buildings as the vehicles screeched to a halt in front of a dimly lit pub.

Doors burst open. Officers stormed inside their hurried footsteps muffled by the wooden floors. Patrons screamed and scattered, knocking over chairs in their rush to escape. The stench of alcohol and sweat mixed with something far more sinister- Blood!

The officers pushed through the chaos, kicking open a door at the back. And there it was!!.

A Body lay crumpled in the corner of the room. A man, his clothes soaked in deep crimson. He had been stabbed - 15 times!!!. The brutality of the crime was written in the blood smeared across the walls, dripping like an artist's twisted masterpiece. The room pulsed with death.

One officer knelt down beside the corpse, examining the wounds. He grimly looked up.

"This murder....it happened 2 days ago!!".

The realisation sent a shiver through the air.

SCENE 2 : THE UNIVERSITY AND THE ENCOUNTER.

The sun rose, casting a golden glow on the cement roads. The world outside was vibrant, oblivious to the horrors of the past night. Birds chirped in the trees lining a quiet path leading through a forested area.

A young man, tall and effortlessly handsome, walked down the path. He wore a headset, eyes glued to his smart phone, oblivious to the crunch of the dried leaves under his feet. As he moved forward, a massive infrastructure loomed ahead - his University.

He stepped inside as he did every day. But today, something was different.

Silence...

A suffocating, unnatural

silence,

He glanced at his phone. "Monday!".

It wasn't a holiday. So why did the university feel... Abandoned?!!.

His steps slowed as he walked down the corridor. That's when he saw it- red stains streaking the pristine white walls. His stomach twisted.

Before he could process it, a boy - drenched in blood - came sprinting towards him. His breath was ragged, his eyes wild with terror.

"Please...help mee!!", he gasped, gripping the young man's wrist.

"She- She's going to kill me!! Call the police!".

Before the young man could react, something whizzed through the air - A Blade!.

The knife struck the injured boy's leg, forcing a scream from his lips as he collapsed to the ground, writhing in pain.

The young man's heart pounded as he turned towards the direction of the attack.

A Shadow emerged.

A Girl-

She stepped forward, completely unfazed, her presence radiating danger. Short jet black hair framed her face, a black mask covering her nose and lips, but her eye - sharp, mesmerizing, deadly - were locked onto him.

She wore a blood stained white shirt, torned black jeans, knee high boots, and sleek black gloves. Every step she took was calculated, dripping with confidence.

The young man instinctively stepped back.

The injured boy trembled, crawling on the ground, desperately clutching the handsome guy's leg, " P -please.... Take me away..... she's going to kill me....".

The girl didn't stop

She reached them, never breaking eye contact with the young man. And then without hesitation she yanked the knife from the injured boy's leg.

A gutteral scream tore through the air..

Still staring at the young man, she plunged the knife straight into the injured boy's neck.

The blade slid through flesh effortlessly.

Blood sprayed out, splattering across the young man's face, warm and sticky.

His breath hitched. His body went rigid.

Terror rooted him to the spot.

The girl finally spoke, her voice low, calm, and eerily composed.

" NOW, YOU'RE NEXT ".
