Curiosity Can Get You Killed

"Yeah, Mom, I know. Alright, see you after detention," Derrick said to his mom on the phone. Ashley and Gary had already called there parents. The three of them weren't the only ones in detention... The creepy girl was there as well. The history teacher was the one watching them but he announced he had to go to the bathroom. Derrick looked at the creepy girl.
