The screams that echoed through the school grounds dragged half the campus outside in panic. Adrian and Selene pushed through the crowd, following the murmurs, following the tension—following the fear.
By the time they reached the school garden, police cars were already surrounding the scene. Yellow tape fluttered in the wind. Teachers were frantic. Students whispered in shaky voices.
Someone shouted:
"They found two bodies inside!"
Everything fell silent.
Selene was confused.
Adrian felt a cold shiver crawl up his spine.
Two bodies.
Inside the shed.
Just like the last time someone went missing.
They exchanged a look.
Without a word, they moved closer.
The police wouldn't let students near, but Adrian and Selene saw enough when the officers lifted the stretcher outside—the corpses were so dried up they looked like ancient mummies. Paper-thin skin. Hollowed cheeks. Empty eye sockets. No blood. No moisture. No smell.
Just… dust.
Horror wrapped itself around the crowd.
