"Yes mom, he was standing right there, and his eyes were filled with blood!"
"Sweetheart, I think you should stop thinking about it. I'll talk to your father when he comes home and think about the situation."

24 April, 2007, at the school...
"Lucinda do you remember about the trip we're going to have 2nd of May?" Billy, Lucinda's bestie asked.
"How could I forget? It's my dream! And you know that! Don't you!" Lucinda over-exclaimed.
"Gurrrl, you don't need to over-exclaim it. Anyway, I'm not an adventure lover, but I'd like to get the badges. How come you're so cool?"
"Fantasy, my friend fantasy! Hey anyway do you know what happened when I was changing my clothes this morning?"
At the maths class...
"Lucinda..."
"Yup?"
"Don't you think our new math teacher is kinda hot?"
"Don't you start again!"
....
"Lucinda..." Billy looked a bit worried, "about that man you talked about... the... OMG... with bloody eyes..."
"Oh! Don't worry 'bout him, he was just a stalker... I've had lots of them you know that... Don't you?" Lucinda tried to relax Billy, "wait a sec, do you mean you don't believe me?"
"No I do believe you, but something tells me he's not a ordinary stalker. Maybe he's trying to warn us not to go to this trip."
"What?"Lucinda smiled,"Billy, you brat, why are you afraid of everything?"
"Tell me you really sure nothing's wrong with
this trip? "
"As a matter of fact, yes. Did you notice the strange behaviour of the troop leader since she's announced the trip?" Lucinda asked.
Billy nodded,"Mrs U Crubblelocks, have been strange too!"
"God sake, and Messy lost all her nails in the accident!"
"I don't know what... but it seems like it's something creepy's going to happen soon." Billy said."I think the only explanation is."
"The school library!"
In the Library...
"Hey, how'cha doin'?" It's was Jake who greeted them first in the library, "Ya guys, whatcha here for?"
"Jake's language is funny!" Billy whispered in Lucinda's ears. They giggled.
"Whatcha giggling for?"
"Nothing, we're just checking for some books for Lake Rebella." Lucinda answered.
"Well, our principal has arranged some books for there in here." Jake explained,"but they're all boring, none worthy reading... Hey, by the way, ye girls are going to Rebella, aren't ya?"
The girls smiled at each other,"oh, we so are!"
...
...
...
"So, this is the row where principal keeps books on Rebella? " Billy exclaimed. "Just the thing we need!"
And they searched for almost an hour, for what thing they should read. And their hands stopped on a diary, it was called 'Lake Bella: The Wicked beauty', written by Steimulfeinder, Lucinda remembers him as the principal told about him in the assembly as 'the admirable person'.
They took the book to a desk. It was a very old book, the paper was almost destroyed.
"Let's see what Mr. Steimulfeinder says... okay, so he was a SARS executive... his colleagues were Kaby James, Jade Excruter, Jale Stephen..."
"Wait, Jale Stephen , that's our principal...?"
"If that's our principal...then..."
"He worked with SARS?"
It was unbelievable, SARS was the organisation that gave the information of space science to the world. Because of it, the world could now travel into space and talk about millions of galaxies. And it was the organisation that made robot sands of new gadgets for the humans. It was then closed down for unknown reasons.
...
...
"That's nuts..."
"Our principal is such a brand? He was a scientist in SARS?"
...
"Tell me more!"
"Yeah, okay, so it says that... "Professor Beatcone was our head scientist. After the discovery of radioactivity, he came to SARS in order for a higher intelligence, according to him AMADAVO had an interesting continuous sudden increase and decrease of radio activity. He said that the colonies on AMADAVO could be used for accommodating tremendous amount of radiation, he was sure up to something, but there should have been a great reason... the radiation level were so high, he said, that if it was in our hands... it could to be used for a developed nation.
We doubted that, and our fear turned true. And we know we're gonna put our hands again in something that's clearly gonna slash our arms apart.
Jale and I worked together, he was the most honest and humble man I'd ever seen in my life. He was the brother of Beatcone."
"Jale....I mean our principal.. was the brother of Beatcone?
"That's why I started writing this book... To tell people the truth... And basically SARS said that lake Rebella was important to save the world, but we knew that was not the whole of a point...'"
"Rachel let's leave." suggested Billy, "I'm sick of all this."
"We'll take the book with us." said Lucinda.
-Back in class-
"I... I can't believe it.." Lucinda said, horrified. "It's just too much information in a day."
"I knew something was awkward..."
There was a silence.
"But it doesn't mean that we are in danger or something..." Lucinda explained.
"What do you mean?" Billy asked.
"C'mon, AMADAVO was history, it's lake Rebella now!" Lucinda explained, "Everything dangerous was in the past, do you think they'd open the park if it was such a dangerous place?"
"I... think you're right." Billy said,"We're just being nostalgic."
"Then it means we're going to the trip?" Lucinda asked, "without any trouble?"
"Yup, we're!"
Lucinda, you should really think about your 'without any trouble' part for a bit.
