My first murder‚ the very thing that had so repulsed me upon my meeting with Zaroff just four days prior. The man was a psychopathic and homicidal bedlamite. He was the predator‚ and I‚ his quarry. His game of hunting men was considered only sport to him‚ whilst I held the belief that this manslaughter was senseless. Now‚ here I lay‚ with

I headed to my first class which just so happened to be my favorite subject‚ English. The hallways were very wide but when filled with students I felt like I had to shove my way through just to get to my locker. The lockers were a mixture between Gray and purple. The school colors were supposed to be purple and silver but there was no way that these lockers could be considered. I took a look at the little piece of paper that the lady in the office had given me and tried out the combination on my
