She looks like she's going to faint any moment, so I held her in place. “What did you see?” Sam questioned, She stayed quiet. We all stayed rooted to the ground terrified to move. “MA’AM PLEASE ANSWER ME!” Cheesecake shouted, “I hear nothing!” Ally started using the light to scan the room closely, “Something smells weird? It's like a metallic tang” Sam noted “Are…are you sure it's not my metal bottle, I had orange juice in there.” Ally's light touched the bottle, it was spilled on the floor. The bottle was pretty banged up. The light passed by red liquid, “WAIT go back, I just saw something!” Cheesecake jestering towards where the teachers desk sits on its side. Ally shined the light where cheesecake pointed. We all gasp, red liquid splattered on the desk, dripping off the metal. The light starts to shake, Sam takes a tiny step forward, Rosa looking paler than ever stays by my side, while I'm stunned. “IS THIS HER BLOOD?” cheesecake shouted terfied. I take a big breath in and out regretting it, “Stay here okay?” I smiled looking at Rosa, she nodes. Ally Shakely shoved the Phone in my hands. I joined Sam walking towards the bloody desk, Avoiding the mess and Writing utensils sticking into the floor, we made it. Just walking felt like it would never end, “You ready?” I sighed “I guess.” We both started to lean in, I held the phone close to my face. Once the light struck, we saw it. Bloody and battered, bones ripped through flesh, limbs twisted, face frozen in an eternal scream, blood leaking from her mouth and nose, what was most shocking was pens and pencils sticking out of her as if they made home in her body. I gagged, spinning around, my hand flew to my mouth. I did my best to hold it in, Sam couldn't, he immediately threw up on her body. Hearing Sam retch Cheesecake yelled “ IS SHE-” “Y-yes” I gagged, cutting him off. I shined the light at the others, Ally started to run towards the door “HELP!” she screamed as she swung the door open. “Wa-wait!” Rosa tried to shout, “I don't think she heard you” Sam coughed. Four of us ran out the door, parts of the ceiling were caved in, it looked like we just ran into a horror movie. “Ally, wait!” I shouted, she kept running, “Why did she burst all of a sudden?” Cheesecake questions. Maybe she just doesn’t have the patience? I sighed, wait a minute. I halt to a stop, There's a tiny bit of light but it's not coming from the phone! “Guys stop, somethings wrong!” They stopped but Ally turned the corner. We backed up as the light got brighter, Then we saw it. The classroom door flew off the hinges, the blast making us fall. A swarm of flaming cockroaches burst out of the classroom towards where Ally had turned. Scurrying to get up we stood there not knowing what to do. “Do we chase after her?” I blurted out, “what was that!” I paced, what if it turns around and comes for us, what is happening! 

Rosa closed her eyes and breathed out, she started creeping towards the corner, Hoping for the best she peaked out. Then she saw the flaming cockroaches start to speed up, there was a scream everybody looked at Rosa's way. In shock she muttered “ what the f-” cockroaches screeching cut her off. One by one they start to attach to Ally, when she opens her mouth to scream, a few cockroaches fly in her mouth and attach, when she tries again more flies in that her mouth gets stuck open, flames burn her as they fly in her ears, she starts to swat at them. It's futile, they start to dig into her skin, biting her ripping chunks of skin off her. Rosa's eyes went wide, They started to tear her chest open. Blood and guts falling to the floor, mortified Rosa backed up. I shout out, “Rosa you okay?” She was silent. The rest of the bugs flew inside Ally's chest, leaving a bloody standing husk. Her body starts jerking, limbs moving in unnatural ways. Her body starts to stagger left and right, if it's learning how to walk. Rosa starts to back away slowly when Ally's eyes start jittering around then stops, making eye contact with Rosa. What was once Ally starts twitching, leaning back and forth. Then sprints full force towards Rosa, she turns and starts sprinting shouting “R-R-RUN!” 

Three of us were shocked and dashed down the hall. I turned my head around to see what we were running from and instantly regretted it. “WHAT IS THAT?” I screamed “IT’S ALLY!” Rosa yells dodging objects and debris, Cheesecake starts tearing up. Sam speeds up, “Guys turn right, let's head to the chemistry room!” Sam shouts trying to sound confident. We rushed our way to the chemistry room but when we turned to go up the stairs, they were destroyed. “Where else can we go!” Cheesecake shook with fear, “Down the stairs!” I shouted, jumping down the steps in a sprint. Others follow behind me. We turned left and dashed down the hall “Guys classroom two fifty, that means we are near Mr. Zerian’s classroom?” Rosa called out. “You're right! He has a bat in his room right?” Sam chimed in, “Yeah should be!” I prayed, “GUYS SHE'S CATCHING UP” Cheesecake screams, we sped up turning left then all slid to a stop. We started rushing into the classroom, slamming the door. “Hello?” I shout, but nobody answers, we raid the room for anything useful. “I found a yardstick!” I stared at the door she was running after us, why isn’t she here by now? Sam grabs a chair and slams it against the floor breaking it, he bent down and picked up the chairs back. Cheesecake goes under Mr.Zerian's desk grabbing the bat. "Guys, how do we even stop her?" "Maybe with this?" Rosa holds up bug spray, Sam places a hand on his chin. "So she's made of bu-" Rosa cuts in "No, the bugs are using her as a host." "Ok so what if we spray her? Then we attack with our weapons!" Sam said pointing at the door. I pondered what to do, all of a sudden heavy slamming footsteps “It's now or never!” Sam shuttered. I'm shaking, terrified of what's to come if we fail. BAM, the classroom door flings open flames starting to engulf the door. I throw the yardstick but nothing happens. We huddle together terrified in the back of the room, she creeps towards us slowly, twitching. She's three meters away getting ready to lunge, Her dead eyes drilling holes into me. Her eyes started rolling around in her eyelid, I felt disgusted that it might happen to any of us. An eyeball fell out of her socket and a cockroach came crawling out. We all start to scream, she lunges and everybody starts to try and dodge.

 Rosa fell to her side spraying bug spray. Sam landing on his back flew up and smacked Ally with the chair back. her body falls to the ground with a big thud, the body starts to shake and twitch. “Cheesecake use the bat!” Sam gestured, Cheesecake screams swinging the bat down on her head. Crack her head split open, cockroaches started ripping the wound making it bigger, they started to crawl out of her gash, they started gnawing on her flesh, clumps of hair, blood and skin fell to the floor. Rosa sprays more bug spray causing the bugs to screech louder. Covering my ears and noticed Ally's body started to flop around. Cheesecake backs away tears rolling down his cheek, Sam slams his chair back into Ally’s side forcing her to roll. Ally's body leaves blood trails behind, We all start to back up. Bzzz “There's a weird noise emitting from Ally’s body!” Sam yelled “Maybe it's her phone!” Cheesecake said, “N-no I have her phone.” I held the phone out, her case was glitter pink. I flashed the light at her body, limbs started to move unnaturally, she started to contort her arms stretched behind her bones snapping, legs moved in a freakish way. 

They twist and turn making a V-shape, She stretched up and jumped landing on all four. Four of us clumped together like clay, I felt sick to my stomach. Her head started moving in one eighty but got stuck, forcing the head to keep moving. Snap, her head faced us, We all screamed, Ally charged backwards towards us.Cheesecake dropped the bat as we all flew to different sides as she slammed against the wall, She screeched, I picked myself up then grabbed Rosa’s hand sliding her towards the door. Sam jumps up scanning the area then runs towards the window as cheesecake tries to run but Ally grabs Cheesecake's ankle, he screams. Sam Starts to slam his chair back into the window frame “Hey over here bug girl!” she turns her head to face him letting out a shriek, she lets go of Cheesecake’s ankle, he falls to the floor with a yelp. “Come on, I know you want this!” Sam yelled, Ally dashed towards Sam. We all gasped, she pounced at him but at the last minute he threw himself to the floor. Ally flew through the window, Sam jumped up and launched his chair back at her. We ran to the window, “Hey you okay?” I shouted “Yeah” Sam smiled, Cheesecake ran up and hugged him “Thanks for saving me!” Rosa leaned over the edge of the window. Bzzz, Rosa retreated behind us “ Guys s-shes still there.” Huh, How? she jumped out the window!

Her body is too heavy to fly! I ran to the window and looked down, “Do we have to throw stuff at her?” her body clinging to the side of the building slowly making her way up. “I don't know how she was able to cling to the building, because she jumped out at full force!” Sam pointed out, “I'll start grabbing chairs.” Cheesecake chimed, I ran over to the closest behind the teacher's desk. The closest was face first on the floor, it was too heavy to lift by myself. “Hey Rosa” I gestured to the closet, she nodded, gave the can to Sam and ran over helping me lift the closet. It landed with a Thud against the wall, scavenging through the closet and I grabbed a wooden broom. Rosa grabs the plastic dustpan, I turn around and see Cheesecake and Sam dropping the chairs out the window. “Are you guys doing any damage?” Cheesecake gave a pained expression “Nothing, I don't know what to do! Sam grabbed the bug spray Rosa gave him,with the help of Cheesecake he leaned out the window, positioned himself half out and sprayed until the bottle was empty. She screeched but this time it was different. Something was off and she didn't stop, the screech was nonstop. I dropped the broom hands flying to my ears, but this time I felt weak like I was going to fall over any moment. There was a Thud behind me, I spun around to see Rosa on the floor. I looked forward to where Sam and Cheesecake up “Guys shut her up!” I yelled with all my might, I tried to run over to help but fell on my knees. I was dizzy and at any minute I could pass out. I tried to get up but couldn't, looking over I saw Cheesecake sway back and forth he yanked Sam in before collapsing to the ground. Nothing in hand Sam laid on top of him out cold. Everyones out, I'm going to be next if I don't shut her up! 

I grabbed the broom, crawling over to the window lifting myself up, I leaned against the window for support. Closer I got the more dizzy I got, but I had to stay awake just a little longer! She was close, I felt myself slip almost dropping the broom, I slapped myself and gripped the broom with all my might. With what little strength I had left, I started to jab the broom at Ally to make her fall. “Just go down!” I yelled, Going in for another jab it landed straight in her mouth shoving it down as far my strength can take me. Her screeching stopped, I felt relief hit me as my body started to fail. I was still in danger, if I passed out now I'm screwed. I tried to lift myself off the window but couldn't, all the strength was gone, my vision blurred. Looked like Ally stopped moving but before I could tell everything went black.
