The next day at school, Danya and Elayna tell Annika, Jamal and Tyler what happened.
"We have to get those reflectors from them."Annika says.
Hunter rushes up to them. "It's lunch time. Now's our chance to go save Trudy."
"Good luck with that, guys." Elayna walks away.
"Let's go." Jamal says.
Annika, Jamal, Danya, Tyler and Hunter start to leave but Tyler sees Elayna crying.
"Elayna.." he goes to comfort her.
"Tyler! Come back!" Hunter shouts.
"I'll go get him." Annika says.
Annika runs to Tyler and grabs him. "We have no time."
"She's crying!" Tyler reasons.
"It's fine. I'm fine." Elayna states.
Annika and Tyler turn back, but Mr. Sweet stops them.
"Students are not permitted to leave the school without a pass." He says.
Annika and Tyler groan and turn around, having to stay with Elayna.
Jamal, Danya and Hunter run out of the school.
"Great!" Hunter says. "Now we don't have Annika and Tyler!"
"We can still save Trudy!" Jamal says. "It's fine if it's just the 3 of us!"
Danya nods.
Jamal, Danya and Hunter set out into the woods.

They keep running until they reach the warehouse.
"I never thought I'd see this place again."Jamal says.
"Rufus isn't here." Danya says. "We can go in."
They run to the door.
"It's locked." Hunter says.
"Here." Danya takes out a bobby pin from her hair and unlocks the door with it.
"Woah!" Hunter smiles. "Way to go, Danya!"
They enter the warehouse and find Trudy tied to the wall, bloody and beaten... just like Elayna was.
"Trudy!" Hunter shouts.
He unites her.
"Vera is the killer!" Trudy gasps.
"We know." Jamal says.
"Let's just get out of here." Danya sighs.
They turn back, but Vera is outside.
She slams the door shut and locks it.
Trapping all 4 of them.
"No, no, no!" Hunter shouts. "What just happened?!"
"You're all trapped." Trudy says. "Just like me."
