We still remembered that gruesome fatal night. I'd never forget what happened and what we got ourselves into. I will be living with this guilt for my whole life. Because of our foolish curiosity and careless actions, we lost a dear friend of ours.

It happened 10 years ago in KenWood High. The school was known for it's creepy and bizarre statues that had been built by the Lords who ran the school. The school was a private institution funded by big Tycoons and was very prestigious. One of the best.

However, the school was not as perfect as you'd think it would be. The school was also known to be a hotspot for notorious murder cases. It had at least one case each year and the murder was never to be caught. It was always anonymous. Not even the cops or detectives could identify him/her. There were also rumours about the victim's murder, that they were not killed/murdered by human but the statues that were said to come to the life at night. 

No one really knew. Were the statues really alive? If so what were they're intentions? Were they evil and wanted to devour the souls of the students or employees here in the school? They were no words to describe the happenings here in KenWood High. 

Somehow , the school never hosted itself as a camping site nor allowed any late night school activities. "NO STUDENTS ALLOWED IN SCHOOL AFTER 6PM!" we were always remind by the teachers at the end of class or club sessions.

KenWood High was built by Lord Wood the First and has been passed down from generations to generations until to it's current owner now, Lord KenWood the Fourth. The school now had more than 20 creepy statues and some were actually still in progress. 

Each time a new Lord takes over the position, they have to keep a tradition of constructing a new statue. They would intentionally hire the best sculptor in the state to construct and build their desired statue. However, most of the Lord's had sickening imaginations. So dark and evil. The statues that were built were always so hard to look at. They seemed to only portray sadness, grief, madness and anger. The statues would always give out an obnoxious aura.

Well, except for one. It was called "The Cheerful Rascals". Built by Lady Wood, the first and only Lady to ever run the school. Somehow Lord wood the 6th's wife bored no sons and she was the only child. So when her father was deceased, the position was then given to her

Unlike other Lords, she didn't have a repulsive imagination. She was rather elegant, polite, graceful and her faculty of imagination was still out of the box but content and jovial. Barbara Wood was her name. Always full of joy and she ran the school perfectly and smoothly. The school was at its best when she ran it. Her statue of "The Cheerful Rascals" portrayed of 7 children holding hands forming a circle. They portrayed Kindness, Bravery, Love, Excitement , Adventure, Happiness and Loyalty. It was the only statue that gave a positive aura to the students.

She ran the school for more than 1o years. All went very well until one devastating morning. Lady Barbara's body was found in the middle of "The Cheerful Rascals". She had been brutally murdered. Her throat was deeply slit, her face contorted, and blood seemed to be gushing out of it, her body badly bruised with cuts, her stomach cut wide open and her guts splashing out and her eyes bulged out. It was a death-dealing scene.
