ROOM 703

The school AIS has 7 floors, each floor has a clock. On seventh floor, the clock has stopped running for years. People not usually go on seventh floor. There are 2 rooms 701 and 702, both for gym and exercise. The technology and machines are old and out-dated. People just come there as a secret place for studying and for couples. One day, the light runs out, and it’s raining outside. Alex is sitting on the desk on seventh floor. She looks at the clock but she realized its not running. The candle on the old shelf is running out. Everything seems strange and unusual. She tried to call her friend but her cell phone ran out of battery. She felt so scary and she suddenly saw something. She thought that was some one is watching her. She felt so scared.

“Hello!” said Alex
“Hello!” repeated the strange voice.
“Anybody here?”
“Anybody here?” repeated the voice again.
“Please help me!”
“Please help me!” the strange voice again.
“STOP!!!!” cried Alex as loud as she could.
“STOP!!!!” the voice again.
“Please don’t kill me” Alex shouted.
“May be not” laughed the void out loud.
“Who are you?”
“I’m the ghost of the room 703”
“There is no room 703”“There is! Now, turn the clock to exactly 12 and you will see”

Alex did what he said, she touch the clock and the glass broke immediately, she turned it to 12 o’clock. Then, the ground moves. She couldn’t know clearly what happen but one side of room 702 and the toilet is opening. It showed a amazing structure that hidden for many years. Another room appears and on top of the door there is number ‘Room 703’. Alex opened the door and look inside. There is nothing strange about the room. It was just a normal classroom. But, there are people there, she can see the students are sitting there and the teacher is teaching on the board. Then, Alex come and look at them, they are all plastic people. Their eyes looked cold and emotionless. Alex tried to get out of the room but she couldn’t. The door has looked. She looked around and find someway to escape. There is a window that has blood on it. There is a word say “Die! You made me die and you need to pay!” The bloody word made Alex remember about the story about the man had killed inside the school but nobody know where he died. She looked back at one of the table and saw one boy with his face down and shaking. Alex thought that the plastic body is breaking so she come and check it. She come nearby and put her hand on the body back. She felt warm and soft not like plastic. Suddenly, the boy’s head drop and his body fell of the chair. Blood burst out everywhere. Alex hands are now full of blood. The boy’s eyes looked at Alex in an angry way. His head touch Alex leg and she jump back. Her back touch another body and it also fall. Then, all the sculpture inside the room fell of. Blood everywhere, Alex cried, shout, she gone crazy, she was so scare but helpless. The voice appears with a shadow.

“That’s how I died, a bully cut my head and break my whole body” said the voice.
His hand touched Alex shoulder that make her sit down, her hands on her head.
“Don’t kill me, I didn’t do anything” cried Alex.
“I won’t kill you; I just try to show you my sadness. I was a boy who scares everybody and I don’t hurt anyone. I’m sorry that I made you scare.”

The shadow disappeared and the door is open now. Alex calm down and she sit on the chair, restless. She felt sorry for that boy and she known he is a good man. She decided to stay. Her sweat and tears make her wet. She stands up and call.

“What’s your name?” asked Alex
“I’m Michael” said the voice
“Can I see your face?”
“NO! You will be scare!”
“I won’t scare, I feel apologize for you. I want to help you.”
“No one can help me.” Michael said in a very sad voice. “Please go!”
“How can I meet you?”
“Every Friday you can come up here and see me.”
“Okay, I’ll come” Alex said in very pleasant voice.

Alex come and sees Michael every Friday. Although Michael’s face is very pale and his face always shine and sad, Alex made him happier and they forgot that old day.
