Maurie Balfour

    You and Maurie were friends. You'd known each other since kindergarten and always ended up at the same schools together. You always stuck together, along with his brother Duane.

    You knew Chad from around school. Huge jackass, pretty annoying... whatever. You never got in trouble with him; you stayed out of his way, and he stayed out of yours.

    Maurie wasn't that lucky. Duane always saught out a fight with Chad, and Maurie always got dragged into it somehow.

    At the end of the day, you walked over to your locker to collect your stuff. You had to stay after class to discuss an assignment with the teacher, so you were the only one left in the halls.

    That's what you thought, until you heard banging. You whipped around to see a locker door being rattled across the hall. When you walked over to it, you saw a post it stuck to it that said 'Do not disturb'.

    You managed to pry it open, at which point Maurie climbed out. His hair was ruffled and his clothing was disheveled. Chad again...
