It was a late night for Mr. Berkley. the janitor had just finished cleaning the seventh grade hall when he turned. one short yelp broke the air and then silence.followed by the bone chilling sound of footsteps and dragging slowly echoing through the halls. it was lunch time the next day it was late November and three friends had just got out for recess and were standing together just talking. suddenly Todd turned to the smoke stack and said "whats up with the smoke stack". it was pitch black Matt said it smells terrible"Todd said isn't that connected to the boiler room just the the bell rang. later someone made a mess so the teacher called the office to send Mr Berkley the janitor . the teacher asked and then looked bewildered Todd said whats wrong. the teacher said Mr Berkley isn't here and he didn't call in sick that's weird said Matt. remember the smoke how were the boilers going . then Todd whispered lets go to the boiler room door after school and see if we can get in . OK, they all said to there parents they wanted to walk but Jose couldn't come.the smokestack was burning white again odd. surprisingly the door wasn't locked what a stroke of luck.they hurriedly walked down the stairs when Matt hit the ground after the stairs it sounded like he stepped in a puddle whats that smell Matt said they struggled to find a light switch when they did it turned on one light bulb . the puddle was blood . they were frozen with they heard footsteps slowly walking down the stairs hoping it was anybody but the killer. they accidentally let out a yelp of panic and the footsteps stopped and started until they heard the door close and lock maybe he locked them in . then more footsteps and when the killer reached the bottom and stepped out it was Jose what are you doing said Todd you scared the crap out of us said Matt he stood there its interesting that your so relieved . he pulled out a knife . two screams one shorter than the other . than footsteps and silence all was still except for the smokestack pouring black smoke.
