CHAPTER 55
Sunny
"It has been said that it is not made by normal people. A lot of people are saying that it could be done by a monster or a psychopath. Our authorities are conducting their investigation into this crime happening in our country."
"Oh! That's Mavin and Uncle." I said, when I saw Mavin and his father on television behind the talking reporter.
They were talking to the police and a few men wearing black shirts.
"I guess their work is really that dangerous. They are in charge of this case. I hope they are always safe." Grandma commented.
"It was also the first time I saw them working. Usually, when I am at their house, they are just holding their laptop or tablet. I did not know that it was that serious." I shared. "Mavin does not share much about his line of work. He said when he is at home, he does not want to talk about it and just wants to have a normal day, so I do not ask about it." I added.
Like what I am always saying, both Mavin and his father are always smiling and know how to follow what is trending today. Seeing them on television, being all serious, not a hint of a smile is shown. It feels like they were different people. It shows that they were serious about their work.
"According to authorities, all the crimes happening in our country were committed by a small group of people. They also concluded that it was connected to the case before." The reporter said.
"What case?" Mom asked.
"I think it is about the people who died a few months before. It was when the government decided to stop the classes for a while because it was too dangerous for the students to go home at night." I answered.
"Oh, right. There are numerous cases involving it as well. From different cities, the killers were able to do that." Grandma added.
That is why our classmates are always sending us home to ensure our safety.
"How could they do that? Don't they get sad or scared about what they are doing? Killing people is not simple; it is a sin." Mom answered worriedly.
"They believe that there are a lot of people involved in this crime. We advised the citizens to be more careful when going out. It is also advisable to stay at home rather than go out if it is not important. This is Jen, and I am wishing for everyone's safety." The reporter said.
It's been a few days since this case roared onto our televisions. A lot of people were scared by the news, and some of them did not take it seriously.
A lot of people have been reported dead already because of those killers, and I hope they will take this case more seriously. I hope everyone will be safe and the authorities will catch them all to stop them from killing innocent people.
After the breaking news, a few advertisements came before the drama we are watching continued. I texted Steven about seeing his brother and his father on the television.
I was not able to get a reply from him, so I kept my phone again and focused on the drama we were watching.
Because of what is happening today, I realized and understand Steven's point about the boys sending the girls home for our safety. He may be aware of what is going on in his family, which is why he advised doing this. I am also glad that the others cooperated well and did not question him more. We trusted what Steven had suggested.
I guess we really listen to genius people, because it feels like they are always right.
Tomorrow comes, and I am on the way to our school.
I even brought my whistle, so if ever things go bad, I will be able to ask for help by whistling. I have put important numbers in my contacts to make sure.
Steven did not reply at all yesterday. Maybe he was busy and I did not want to disturb him. He could be helping his family with what is going on in our country.
Before I could enter our school, I saw Mr. Prile standing on the other side. Our eyes met, and I can clearly tell that he smiled at me. I bowed a little and smiled back.
"Sunny." A voice from behind called out.
I turned to see Steven walking towards me. I waved my hands and approached him. "Hi! Mr. Prile is here. Maybe we could talk―oh, he is gone already?" I said when I turned back to see Mr. Prile nowhere out of the way.
"He was here?" Steven asked.
I nodded. "He was standing there a while ago," I said, pointing to where he was standing at the time. "Our eyes even met, and we both exchanged smiles too."
"After what happened, it's been a while since the issue ended. Maybe we could talk to him and ask about his well-being. He was still our professor before, and maybe he changed. He would not go here if he was still mad about it, right?" I asked Steven.
Steven guided me to enter the school. "Maybe. Let's hope that he accepts that it was his fault back then. He might also have a reason for going here." He replied.
I nodded. "You right."
"He would not come here without a motive." He said.
When we got to our room, we all talked about the news all day. We shared different opinions and views. Some of them said that it could be done by monsters, but it was always disregarded because there was no way a monster could do it now.
I can also feel and tell Steven's quietness. He isn't saying anything and isn't even participating in our discussions. When Marco and the others tried to ask him about his opinion, he only said that those killers who were doing the crimes did not fear anything, which is why they did not mind killing people. After that, he did not say anything and just listened to us debating.
I do not know if he has a problem on his own or if he is not really interested in it.
I also want to talk to him and ask if he is okay, but he has this aura that he wants to be alone, which is why I am hesitating to talk to him.
"Why are you looking at Steven and pouting there?" Shiela suddenly asked.
I looked at her and pouted again. "I want to talk to him and ask if he is okay, but I do not think he wants me or the others to talk to him right now." I shared.
Shiela turned and looked at Steven's place, "I can see what you are talking about. You came together a while ago. You guys did not talk or what?" She asked me.
I shook my head. "We talked a little while ago. I saw Mr. Prile outside, standing in front of our school. I bowed at him when he smiled at me. I was about to point him to Steven, but he was gone after that." I told her.
"Seriously? Mr. Prile? It's been a while since we saw him," Shiela answered. "Anyway, try to talk to him and ask him. Maybe he has a problem. He seems to be thinking hard." She added.
Really?
I looked at Steven again. Now that Shiela has said that, I can see that he is really thinking hard. He seems to be in deep thought, drowning in his own thoughts.
I hope he is okay.
I will make sure to ask him later, after our class. It is time to help him now.
Time flies by, and our class ended. I made my way to Steven.
"Let's go?" I asked him.
He nodded back and smiled a little. "Where is Shiela?" He asked.
"Practice again. I messaged her friend to send her again like always. So we are going home together again." I answered.
We went out of the school and I am now thinking about how I should approach him.
"If you just stand there staring at me, I'll melt like ice cream." I heard him comment. "What is it? Do you have something to say to me?" He asked afterward.
"Uhm, I am just worried about you. It feels like you were thinking deeply a while ago. Do you have a problem? You know, you can tell me anything, right? I will do my best to help you." I told him.
"Oh, you noticed that?" He asked back.
"How could I not notice that?" I answered back.
"You must really have been staring at me." He teased.
I hit his arms lightly. "Stop teasing me. Are you really okay?" I changed the topic. "Are you still not ready to tell me your problem? It's okay if you can not tell me right now. I just want you to know that I am here. Just call or text me if you need someone to talk to, okay?"
He nodded. "I will. Thank you. Do you want to go to our house today? Let's watch movies today." He invited.
"Okay, call! I need to message Mom later. You know, it is dangerous outside, and my mom is worried. She wants us to report every hour if we can." I shared.
"Okay, I will still send you home like always, or maybe we could ask Mavin to send you home." He replied.
"That's correct.Have you seen my message from yesterday? I saw your father and Mavin on the television." I bragged.
"Ahh, yeah. They are being called to investigate the case since it falls under my father's line of work. They were asking for their stand and investigation to solve and catch the killers." Steven answered.
"We are praying for their safety. The case is very dangerous." I said.
When we reached their house, Mavin was at the sala eating the pizza he had just ordered. For our lunch, we had pizza and soda. We also turned on their television and watched a movie.
"Run! Do not die." I can't help but comment.
We are at the climax of the movie and the female lead is being killed by the family of her groom.
Both of my seatmates quickly turned their heads.
"Why?" I asked them. "Is someone outside? Maybe your friends came again. I will look and see who it was." I added and stood up when Steven held my arms.
"No, don't." He replied.
I looked at him, confused.
A knock was heard, but no one replied. Only the movie that was playing has the only music we can hear. After a few seconds, someone knocks at their door again.
"RENDEZCAH! YOU HAVE A VISITORS! WOULD YOU LIKE TO OPEN THE DOOR FOR US?!" I heard someone yelling from the outside. "I GUESS WE HAVE TO OPEN IT OURSELVES..."
Then suddenly, I saw their door fly away.
I yelled out of shock. I heard their footsteps coming inside of the house.
Steven quickly hid me behind his back.
"I called backups already. Dad is on the way." Mavin whispered.
Who are they?
What is happening?
"A w-wolf? A lot of wolves!" I commented.
There are a lot of wolves coming inside and are currently looking at us. A man walked up and showed Mr. Prile.
"Mr. Prile?" I called.
He turned his gaze to me.
"Watch out for the wolves, Sir. It might bite you!" I added worriedly.
But Mr. Prile only laughed.
"You are their new leader." Steven commented.
"So he is Mr. Prile you mentioned before?" Mavin asked. "He was the one who attacked you?"
Who assaulted Steven?
Did Mr. Prile attack Steven?
"Have you been enjoying our play these days?" Mr. Prile asked.
"Play? You are killing innocent people!" Steven yelled back.
"That's what we call play. It's play time." Mr. Prile replied, which made me gasp.
Killing people and saying that it was only play time?
"Let's play again, shall we?" He added. "Kill the woman, leave the two alive. We need them to show their pack that it's not good to be under people's tails."
Steven and Mavin quickly shielded themselves from me.
"Sunny Clyde, I am very sorry about this." Mavin said, and I saw him transformed into a BIG WOLF, TOO!
I immediately walked backwards.
The other wolves started to attack Mavin and Steven. I can hear them whimpering like a dog who was hit.
"WAAH!" I yelled when a wolf suddenly charged towards me.
Steven immediately shielded himself from me and punched the wolf.
"Steven, watch out!"
"Ahh!"
I could not help but cry at the sight of Steven being bitten by the wolves approaching him.
"S-sunny, can you please close your eyes for me?" I heard Steven say.
After hearing him, I shut my eyes, crying from the thought that we were dying. I could not understand what was happening right now. The house was not a good sight anymore. Many things were broken, and the sounds of the wolves' whimpering were still happening.
I heard a loud growl. As much as I want to keep my eyes closed, I need to see Steven and Mavin's conditions.
"S-steven?" I called his name.
He was nowhere in sight. The wolves are still fighting, trying to make their way towards me. A wolf stood out because it was trying to stop the other wolves from coming at me.
"S-s-steven? Is that you?" I asked.
He never answered, but I could feel that it was him.
Were they wolves too?
But how?
I stopped thinking when Steven whimpered. Another wolf growled at them and tried to stop them from coming to Steven.
"Stop."
"Please stop."
"Why is this happening?"
I hope this is just a dream.
"Stop!"
"I SAID STOP!" I screamed at them loudly.
I am using my force to make my voice louder.
All of them stopped. Some of them whimpered loudly and walked backwards.
My hands were shaking.
A wolf suddenly walked up to me...transforming into the people I know.
