The dormitory door creaked open, and Dorcas dragged her bewildered friends inside. 

...... This is all my fault, I caused my aunts dëath....". dorcas retorted.

"Don't be too hard on yourself," Sammy chipped in  "Your aunt's death isn't your fault.

When land calls who are we humans to negotiate with dëath itself....?" Sammy continued in consoling her along with aliya.

"But it is!" Dorcas choked out. "I caused her dëath."

Sammy exchanged glances with Aliya, both puzzled with concerned. "What do you mean?" Aliya asked with her forehead creasing.

"Sammy's right, you can't blame yourself for your aunt's choice when she was still alive...".

"No, I k!lled her, she didn't die a natural death, I had to k!ll her to avoid being punished for k!lling Mr eugene," dorcas finally confessed shooking her head in shame.

"Huh....am lost...," Sammy muttered exchanging glances with aliya, adjusting her sitting posture, glaring at Dorcas intensively.

"What do you mean?" Aliya queried along with sammy furrowing their eyebrows longing to hear more.

"What you saw the other day was real, you weren't hallucinating," dorcas said with more tears streaming down her cheeks.

"How are we supposed to know what's going on with you if you keep crying like this, you keep putting us on suspense, just tell us already, 

Dorcas sigh, then confessed. She had been initiated into witchcraft by the senior prefects. 

  Her consciousness was transported to their hidden coven. There, she learned the truth, the real culprit behind the junior students' deaths.

"I've been forced to play along," Dorcas confessed. "But my aunt's dëath... I fl0gged Mr. Eugene in his dreams, and she paid the price."

Aliya and Sammy gasped their jaw dropped in awe.

Dorcas's tears flowed freely. "I'm a m0nster," she sobbed. "Girls like me should burn in hëll."

Sammy and Aliya exchanged pitiful glances. Then, they enveloped Dorcas in a warm hug. "We won't run away," Sammy said. "Even we don't know what to say."

"But we need help," Aliya added. "The school authority need to know the set of prefects we have."

"Huh...are you cråzy? what do you want us to tell the school principal? witches are reigning in his school? no!! no!!

More troubles for us because he won't believe us," Sammy continued.

"What about the Catholic church at the next street? maybe they can help, am sure the reverend father will understand us,"aliya queried her friend abruptly which made Sammy to nod her head simultaneous.

They agreed to seek the reverend father's aid. That evening, as they slipped past pelican girls high school like shadows.

 The church loomed ahead as they approached it, a curious sister eyed them. "what brings you girls here?" she asked.

"We need to see the reverend father," Dorcas said.

The reverend father puzzled by the trio of desperate girls outside beckoned on them, The girls transpired what had brought them and he offered to pray for Dorcas, to cleanse her.

But as the reverend father began his prayers, the air crackled. The whole seniors syndicate were present,

 Their eyes were flamed with malevolence. trying to claimed Dorca's s0ul.

"Repent, for your souls are in peril."

The seniors scoffed, their defiance were palpable. They circled the reverend.

Their shadows stretced across the marble floor. But as they lunged, seeking to exchange powers with the holy man, the impossible unfolded.

Their forms wavered, screams echoing through the church. The witches vanished, leaving behind only the memory of their malevolence.

 Aliya and Sammy, wide their eyed, cowered behind the reverend, their trembling hands clasped in prayer.

"Jesus loves you, child," Father Elijah whispered to Dorcas. "He grants you a new life."

Dorcas was purified by holy water as she  crumpled to the ground. Fear gripped her, but she felt a warmth, a promise of redemption.

The reverend instructed them to remain steadfast,  visiting the Holy Mary when time allowed.

He offered to tell the school's principal of the darkness pelican girls held, but the girls declined, thanking him for his impact on dorcas.

And so, the three friends returned to Pelican Girls' High bidding the father a goodbye.

That night, the dorm room recognized the familiar laughs of  Aliya, Sammy, and Dorcas as they huddled together in their bunk bed.

The next morning, an alarm pierced the silence. The senior prefects lay still in their sleep dèad.

Shockwaves rippled through the school, and the principal grappled with the inexplicable. The seniors' dëmise defied reason.

Aliya,Sammy and dorcas exchanged knowing glances. They understood the price paid, 

 The once-cruel bullies were no more, and the balance had shifted.

Sammy choose to stay with her friends in pelican girls, she learned that running in the face of their threats wasn't the best way.

What aliya had dreamed for had finally come to pass, no more starvation, no seniors bullying or k!lling the juniors or disappearing into thin air.

Their best friend, Dorcas, had learnt her lesson  in the face of darkness, friendship becomes the beacon that guides them together......
