3RD POV
At Somerville High School, In Miss. Lane's Art class, The Benton Gang is sitting at their desks, working on their Art class assignments. But my desk is empty.
Jonny and Sonya looks at my empty desk and exchange glumly looks at each other.

CYPRESS BOARDING SCHOOL
In the study lounge, Ricky Henson and his girlfriend, Heather Morgan, are chitchatting with each other.
"How many DVDs have we handed out so far?" Heather Morgan asked him.
"A few." Ricky Henson answered, picking up a Neon LED mask in his hand. "Violet's best friends isn't suspicious about the DVDs."
"But I'm pretty sure that Violet does." Heather said. "I don't think she's "dead" Ricky, perhaps, she's faking it."
"I saw the shrine that Violet's little besties made at Somerville High." Ricky said.
"And you believe that?" Heather asked, skeptical, folding her arms. "Don't you think that Violet's little besties are in on it as well?"
"Violet's smart and clever, so as of right now, we do something else." Ricky said.
Ricky Henson and Heather Morgan exchange looks at each other.

At Somerville High School, Aaron is at my shrine locker. He crouches down and puts a flower in the flower pot.
"Violet's not dead, isn't she?" Scarlett Sweeney asked him.
Aaron looks at Scarlett, getting back up to his feet. "What are you talking about, Scarlett?"
"I'm talking about Violet Benton." Scarlett told him with a straight face. "I contacted her phone and she didn't answer."
"My girlfriend, Violet's dead." Aaron said to Scarlett, glumly.
"Why don't I believe that?" Scarlett Sweeney said, slowly walks up to him.
Aaron and Scarlett annoyed looks at each other.
"Leave him alone." Jonny said to Aaron.
Scarlett looks at both Jonny and Aaron with a straight face, but cheekily grins. "You two amazes me, Jonny Harper. Aaron Hayfield." and she walks away.
Jonny and Aaron exchange looks at each other. And Jonny walks away.

BENTON HOME
In the living room, Ava and Jessy had came over to check on me with Jen's paper to-go bags of cheeseburger sliders and strawberry milkshakes.
"Ava. Jessy. I need your help with something." I said to my best friends.
"Yeah, sure." Ava said.
"What is it, V?" Jessy asked.
"Have you guys gotten anymore of those DVDs?" I asked them.
"Yeah." Ava replied, pulling out a DVD case from her backpack.
Jessy pulls out a DVD case as well. "And me too."
"Okay, What's on it?" I asked them both.
"Our houses." Jessy said, inserting her DVD disc into the VCR and presses the 'Play' button on the remote.
On Jessy's DVD is a small video of her house. It stays on her house for a little bit, and then, it statics off.
"Creepy." I said.
"Yeah. I know." Jessy said, ejecting her DVD from the VCR.
"Ava?" I said.
Ava inserts her DVD disc into the VCR and I press the 'Play' button on the remote.
It's the same thing. A small video of Ava's house. It stays on her house for a little bit, and then, it statics off.
"Who are these Neon LED Maskers?" Jessy asked.
"Don't know. But I have a hunch about it." I said, pulling out my phone and dials Maggie's phone.
"Hey, Violet. What's up?" Maggie said on the phone.
"I think I know who are The Neon LED Maskers are." I tell her on the phone.

"Who's asking?" Ricky Henson asked.
"Special Agent Maggie Pollard." Maggie tells the teenagers. "And the three of you have been making some DVDs with The DVD Miser."
Ricky gets up to his feet. "And what makes you think that we're gonna tally-tale you about The DVD Miser?"
"I don't." Maggie said.
"Where's Violet?" Ricky asked Maggie.
"Dead." Maggie said, glumly. "But I do miss her. And so, does the guys."
"Yeah. Violet's dead body at the Arrington Morgue was really scary." Heather Morgan said.

BENTON HOME
That evening, Jonny had came over to check on me. He and I are sitting on the three seat sofa.
"Jonny, I need a small favor." I said to him.
"Yeah, sure. What is it?" Jonny asked me.
"I need you to stealthy go to Club Daze. The Neon LED Maskers will be there. Maggie and I need you try to get a confess." I said, handing him a recording device. "Can you do this?"
"Sure. Anything for you, Vinny." Jonny said with a small smile.
I smile a little. "And please, be careful. I wouldn't be able to forgive myself if something were to happen to you."
"I'll be careful." Jonny said.
"Maggie will be there as the getaway." I said to him.
"Okay." Jonny said, getting up and walking away.
