THE PRESTIGIOUS PRISON"Come. Take me from the pain, it's dark and I don't hear your voice, I just want to breathe, the night is going to kill me". “ I flatly refuse!“ Amara, come back here! “ I hear my father's shout behind me. I was about to go upstairs to my room and lock myself in there for the rest of the afternoon.“ Don't talk to me, Dad, what you're doing is so unfair!“ It's only two years! “ I feel him take my hand and make me turn to him, "Amara, you have to go. We have no other choice. Remember what I told you. If you don't go then she... “ closes her eyes for a second” , I want you to be with me always.“ I don't want to be separated from you," I muttered very softly, "and I don't want to leave home. I've never been to America.“ I know," he leads me back to the main room, "think of this as an opportunity to prove your bravery.“ My bravery? “ I frowned.“ That's right, to travel alone, to be independent. At Ellite College you'll be living with other girls so you

DECLARING WAR“ Good morning, people! “ A girl enters the room with a smile on her face. She brings a green suitcase along with a backpack.“ Hello," I say. I was sitting on my bed looking at some magazine. I was dying of boredom here.“ Oi," he says hello.“ Are you... from Brazil? “ I wanted to guess. He spoke Portuguese so I doubted whether he was from Brazil or Portugal.“ Yes, I'm sorry," she apologizes, taking the bed next to the door, "My name is Flavia and I forgot that they don't speak my language here," she starts to unpack.“ I'm Amarantha. And I'm from France," I introduced myself.“ France “ she looks thoughtful” Have you been to the Eiffel Tower? “ she asks me curiously.“ Yes, many times.My father and I would go to spend Christmas and New Year's with my grandparents in Paris and we would always go to the Eiffel Tower, take pictures and so on. It was one of my favorite places. The city of love.“ Wow it's amazing. I've always wanted to go to Paris to the Eiffel Tower,"

HIS DARK GAZE PENETRATES MEAs I was walking through the huge facilities of this school, I hadn't realized that I was actually lost. Mell and Flavia had stayed in the cafeteria ordering something to eat, Flavia had told me that since she came she hadn't eaten anything and that she was starving. I wasn't hungry at all just now, what I wanted was to distract myself a little to stop thinking about everything that had happened in France.Where am I? I was so wrapped up in my thoughts in these corridors that I didn't notice the way. That's great. The only thing I was missing. I don't know exactly where I was, but there were stairs leading down somewhere, some kind of basement maybe. On the door it said exit, so I figured there had to be an exit that way.Even though it was very dark I went inside, it was all kind of scary. I didn't think anything of it and kept going down. It had been a long time since I had been scared of many things. The place was like a kind of cellar, there were some s

THE PARTYWhen we returned from the cafeteria Flavia started to take off her clothes without caring that I was present. She was literally naked. I walked over to my closet and looked for something comfortable to wear.“ What do you think will happen at the party? “ she asks me. I feel her nearby, she was walking towards the closet of the pair that was hers.“ I don't know," I answer. I chose a short flowered dress.“ You're not wearing that, are you? “ she says. I look at her with a frown and don't understand anything.“ What's wrong with it?“ The dress looks more like something to go to a beach, don't you have something sexy around here? “ She comes closer and checks my clothes, choosing some suitable dress to go to the big Elder's party.“ No, I'll feel more comfortable in my dress," I take it off and close my closet. Maybe I was a little rough when I took it off but I didn't want to wear anything sexy that would attract men's attention, they would be morbid and that's the last thi

RED LIGHTS-What's going on? -I ask Mell, who was still holding our hands who knows where.-Shh," she stops, "whatever you do, don't talk," she says. It's all dark and screams can be heard far away. I was terrified because I saw a wolf in Elder William's party, a wolf that maybe is killing people. Is this real? Because it looks like something out of a nightmare.-What the fuck is going on, Mell? -Now it's Flavia talking.-Shut up," Mell replies.-You don't talk to me like that," Flavia starts to tell her.-Flavia, shut up if you don't want them to find us.-Who's going to find us? -I wanted to know.But she didn't answer. Then we heard footsteps or footsteps. That's right, they were footsteps because I was sure they were claws hitting the floor. Oh my God. I swallowed thickly as we waited for whatever was coming.-We have to split up," Mell tells us.-What? You're crazy," Flavia whispers back.-It's for the best. Amara, you go to the left, you will reach a corridor that will take you

THE LABORATORY-What's wrong? -Flavia asks me when she notices my puzzled face. I wasn't sure whether to tell her because the message said not to trust anyone. But it's Flavia, who wants answers like me. In the photo was a boy, his shirt was torn to shreds, he had scratches on part of his body. He had died. Did the principal know about this? Did people know about this? Were they aware that these things were happening in their prestigious high school?I decided to trust her because the truth was a lot for a single weak person like me.I passed the cell phone to Flavia over the table so she could read the message. When she read it I looked behind her. There was Elder and the others sitting two tables away from us. Elder looks as if nothing had happened at his party yesterday. Mell laughs at something her red-haired friend said. When Elder looks at me I don't look away but hold my eyes to let him know I'm not afraid of him.-It can't be," Flavia puts a hand to her mouth, "It's terrible.

SUSPECTS-These skirts are a little short, don't you think? -I say to Flavia as I look at myself in the mirror. It was Monday and classes were starting today. The uniform was a bit strange. The skirts were blue and short.-They look fine to me," she replies. Of course, anything provocative is fine with her.-Do they dislike the uniforms? -asks Karla coming out of the bathroom.-Not at all," I answer. Karla seemed a bit strange to me, I mean, sometimes I felt her to be sincere and other times I felt her to be a bit hypocritical, so I wouldn't relate much to her. The last thing I want is to find more fake people in my life.My cell phone rings, I notice it's my dad so I answer it:-salut papa.-Amara, comment vas-tu? tout va bien? -he asks me.-Everything is fine, I'm getting ready to go to class. Tu me manques.-Tu me manques aussi. Je vous vous appelais juste pour vous souhaiter une bonne journée et prendre bien soin de vous. J'ai une réunion importante en ce moment. -It was always th

THE LAKE-Two things: I need you to accompany me to a place. And don't tell anyone.I slowly close my locker door and turn to see the least expected person inviting me out. Elder William is leaning against the wall looking at me in a nonchalant tone.-Excuse me? -I clutched my notebooks to my chest.-What you heard," he says, "I need you to walk me somewhere. That's all.I looked around to make sure no one was watching us because this really seems like a joke.-What did you smoke?He rolls his eyes.-Are you coming or not? My patience is wearing thin.I thought about it. It was very strange for Elder to talk to me and worse, to invite me, but I had made a plan before: to approach them to find out what they were up to. And it seems that Elder is making it too easy for me.-Why do you want me to come? Why did you invite me? -I wanted to know.-All right, if you don't want to go, don't go," he rejoins, making a pretense of leaving, but I stop him.-All right, I'll go," I agreed, "what ab
