While I was walking in the hallway towards the library, I suddenly stopped in front of the laboratory where I heard a loud scream. I noticed the door was open, so I slowly peeked in to find out what was going on inside. My eyes widened in shock when I saw Monique and her four friends inside the laboratory room and where I also saw Ms. Monica sitting on the floor.

“What did you do to Mellow? Why isn't she breathing? You're a murderer.” Monique said angrily to her as she carried a Persian cat in both hands that seemed to be lifeless.

“Why aren't you answering? Are you admitting that you killed her?” She added but Ms. Monica did not respond to her, instead she grinned and the expression on her face also changed. Because of that, Monique became even more irritated with her and for a moment, she let Stefanie hold her pet cat at the same time she approached Ms. Monica and pulled her hair down.

“You will regret what you did to Mellow. I can assure you that you will not be happy for the rest of your life because from this day on I will be your boss, and you will serve you, do you understand?” Monique was looking at her intently as she tightly held her hair. But their conversation was interrupted when Stefanie let go of Monique's cat, so she immediately approached her and pushed her hard on the shoulder.

“What are you doing? Didn't I tell you to gently carry him?” She said to her angrily while Stefanie was sitting on the floor because of the force she pushed her, besides that, her left hand was bleeding profusely where she got a cat bite wound. Jiena, Krizza and Ruth approached Stefanie when they noticed blood dripping from her hand.

“Are you alright?” Jiena asked her worriedly.

“We'd better take her to the clinic, so her wound can be cleaned right away.” Ruth said as they nodded their heads at the same time. They were about to leave the laboratory, but Monique immediately stopped them and looked angrily at Stefanie.

“Where are you going? Are you going to leave me alone? What about Mellow?” She said so, the three of them turned to her and looked at the cat lying on the floor.

“Monique, your cat bit Stefanie. Is your cat more important than Stefanie? Besides, it looks like your cat is just pretending to be dead. Look how deep it bit Stefanie's hand.” Krizza told her, but Monique didn't seem to like it so she picked up the potion that was next to her and poured it on Krizza even she didn't know what kind of potion it was. Suddenly, Krizza screamed, and her body was smoking due to the potion that Monique poured on her.

“Krizza!” The two girls called her and wanted to help her, but her skin was slowly melting from the heat of the liquid in her body. They were all just standing and watching her, so I thought of going inside, and I pressed the fire emergency button so that the water came out of the fire sprinkler and to reduce the heat that Krizza was feeling. Because of that, we all got wet, and she just fell on the floor while her whole body was bleeding and some parts of her body and face were melted. I was almost stunned by what I witnessed, and Ruth and Jiena screamed loudly as they ran out of the room. Monique, Stefanie, Ms. Monica and I were the only ones left inside. Monique was still standing dumbfounded as she stared at Krizza. After a while, we noticed that her cat Mellow seemed to be moving, and suddenly, she walked towards Krizza. I covered my mouth when her cat ate Krizza's melted body, and even Monique recoiled in shock. While Stefanie suddenly moved, and it was as if she were breaking every bone in her body and her eyes turned white. Ms. Monica stood up and then came to me.

“We have to get out of here.” She said as she tried to push me out of the laboratory. She forced me to go with her, and she held me tightly by my right wrist while I was still looking at Monique, who was just standing there dumbfounded. While we were walking away from that room, some students came in who were curious about what happened inside. In addition to that, some professors also came when they found out about what Monique did to Ms. Monica and behind them, I noticed Jiena and Ruth as if they were the ones who told the professors what happened inside laboratory. However, Ms. Monica did not pay attention to them, and we continued to walk while she was still holding me by the wrist until I stopped when I heard a series of students shouting from there. I turned around, and I didn't immediately realize what was happening there. I waited a few more seconds before they ran, and there was a trace of fear on their faces.

“What's going on with them?” I turned to the familiar voice I heard and realized it was Che while he was with Elysa and Andrew.

“Are you okay, Rhey? Didn't Monique hurt you?” Andrew asked me worriedly and I nodded my head.

“We need to get out of here right now.” Ms. Monica said, so we all turn to her with a look of astonishment on our faces. I removed her hand that was holding me earlier.

“I'm sure you know something about what's going on here right now. Can you explain to me what's going on with them and why you're so desperate to get out of here?” I was curious about her, but she didn't respond to me right away, instead she sighed and bowed.
