"Alice Shina please come up here for a second," Mr. Squally announced. Johanna had a bad feeling about this. As Alice walked up Johanna was thinking to herself, "Please don't let it be something bad..." Alice went back to her seat with a strange look on her face, "Johanna, he asked me to stay after class."
"Alice do you want me to come with you?" Johanna asked,
"No," Alice said harshly to her sister,
"I can take care of myself, I don't need you everywhere I go you know." Johanna was hurt because of her sister's harsh words. After class Alice stayed when Johanna went home. After explaining to her parents what happened, they went to the middle school to pick up Alice. When they arrived at the school they saw Mr. Squally rushing to his car, wondering where Alice was. When they walked into the school, down the hallway, all the way to classroom 707, there lay young Alice, drenched in redness. it was only moments when they discovered Alice was dead.

The next day the police arrived at the school. When the news press saw Johanna the sister of Alice they were very excited and started interviewing her all at the same time. One reporter was saying, "Johanna were you there when the scene of death happened,"
another said at the same time, "Johanna do you know how your sister died?"
Question after question after question, it started to get annoying so she walked up to one of the reporters, got in their face, and talked very quiet but in a scary tone, "Put one more microphone to my face and you'll wish you were never born."
As Johanna walked away from the press, the reporters shaking in terror.When Johanna and her family arrived home she ran straight into her bedroom and forever sat in silence.
