"I'm telling you, sir! This needs to stop!" A teacher pleaded. "Is been too extreme! You need to call on more help desperately or this school might go bankrupt!"

"Well, what have I been saying? Of course, I'm worried it might go bankrupt!" The principal bellowed. "And I have been begging for their help! They are on the case!"

"It doesn't matter whether they are or not!" Someone shrilled. "What I'm worried is about the students! If more students keep dying, more stubborn parents might sue us for not believing what we said!"

"I mean it is our responsibility after all." Another answered. "But if the murderers don't get arrest any sooner, we'll die!"

"Now hold on a second." The principal paused and I press my ear closer to the door, my hands pressing on the smooth wooden door. "Last year, the murderers did get arrested but more of them just keep coming out. Is like there's a whole group of them, working together to rule over the school?!"

"No wonder. Ever since those vicious murderers got arrested, the school was full of peace. But now, different murderers are back."

"I don't think they're different. I'm pretty sure we only caught like half. The other half then decided to rest and find more people to persuade to help them." Someone guessed.

"Yeah but it always happens every Halloween. This is like the fourth year right?"

"Yes. And each year, the murderers get more dangerous and more menacing." The principal finished. "But is just strange... why are they doing this?"

"I'm telling you! They want to take over your school!" A male teacher burst. "Your school is highly prestigious and whoever owns it is a millionaire!"

"And how do you know this?" Someone asked.

"Because is obvious. If they found the secret hidden in this school, if they have access to it, we're all dead. Because that secret can control all of us. We don't know what it is! Not even the principal knows what it is!" He blurted.

Uhm, that's quite suspicious. Who is this teacher that blurt that out? Because he knows a lot of shit. Or maybe he's the assistant principal?

"That is true. But the government just told me to keep it safe. He told me it wasn't necessary to know what it was. I don't even know where is kept." The principal answered with a sigh.

"That is a smart move. Because if you did know, the murderers might abduct you and threaten you to tell them where it's kept." Someone replied.

Exactly.

And how many teachers are in there? About five to six?

"If they're after the school secrets, why not just give it to them so they'll stop?" Someone suggested which they shouldn't have.

"No way! That's not even a convincing recommendation! If they have the secret, it means my career as a principal will end, and whoever got it will take over! If that happens, then everything will just corrupt into a huge mess!" The principal ranted.

"My son studies here." A different voice entered. "I won't be able to handle the news of his death... he's the only one why I'm alive." She started sobbing loudly but eventually calmed down by staff.

"Miss, please don't stay negative. It just worsens everything. Anyways, another five deaths have already occurred sir and each of them has has a feather directly beside them which is suspicious. Additionally, if this keeps going on, the students will all be wiped out."

Five deaths already?! How come I didn't know this!?

"Well, there's nothing we really can do about it. It's in the authorities' hand." The principal finished and I facepalmed.

"But we can't always depend on the authorities!" A teacher argued. "They're going to make us wait for another year again!"

"Yeah, well, who are we going to depend on then?? Our students to figure out who's the imposter among them??? No!" Someone argued back.

"I disagreed! What if our students are smarter and brighter than some of us? They're much younger and have more energy, we're just a bunch of old homosapiens and we don't have the energy to run around, catching murderers! What if for once we depend on the students?" A teacher suggested, probably leaving everyone in thoughts.

I mean is a pretty good idea...

"That is a superb and great proposal! Maybe we can form a secret spy group, including specific students who will be brilliant at it?" The principal declared.

"Yes! That is what we need!" Another teacher affirmed happily. "But the group have to be confidential, and a secret. We can't let the murderers know! Sir, you are one-"

The words were cut off from me when someone abruptly and violently pulls me away from the door. Letting out a startled gasp, a hand instantly clamp on my mouth, leaving me mumbling gibberish. Something shiny was my chin and I glance down, to be met with a sharp and shiny knife. Struggling to move away, the person strangled me to keep me on hold.

"Make a sound, I won't hesitate to kill you."
