Chapter eight

    We all made our way out the door leaving Peter and Jack behind.

"Don't get caught!" He calls out from behind us as we make way to the elevator. Once we're in there's an unsettling silence among us. All the worse ways this could go down racing through our minds. What if we do get caught? We'll be kicked out of the school! I'd loose all the friends I've made here. I'd be force to go back to that damned public high school near my mom's house. I was pulled out of thought when Matt, thankfully spoke up.
"Do we all remember our positions?."
"Yea," we say in unison.
"Sam and buck are watching the halls inside, while John and I are outside." Chris recalls for clarity.
"And you three are inside doing whatever you do." Bucky adds.
"Right, and let's hope we don't run into any-" Matt is cut off when the elevator doors open to reveal the lobby full of students scattered around.
"Damn." John curses under his breath. Matt rapidly presses the button to get the doors closed before anyone notices us. We are all wearing black jackets (besides Matt who refused to leave behind his regular tweed one) so we hopefully wouldn't stand out in the dark, but in the light it isn't something seen as normal or un suspicious. Once the doors shuts Bucky spoke.
"Great, now what do we do?" He expressed sarcastically.
"Window?" I suggest.
"The only one we could use is on floor two, so how do you expect us to get down?" Sherlock attempts to shut down the idea.
"The supply closet at the end of the hallway has a couple rope latter's in case of a fire." I respond shrugging.
"That could work!" Matt smiles and darts down the hallway to the closet I referred to right when the doors opened. Once he got to it and tried the knob he sighs turning back to us. "Locked."
"I got this." Sam says walking towards it taking out a pick lock kit. It didn't even take him a minute to have the door opened. "There." He smiles moving out of the way so Matt can get through digging for the latter's.
"Where did you learn to do that?" I smirk nudging him playfully.
"My dad." He looked down at the floor before looking back up once Matt shouts-out in accomplishment. John shushed him right as he did so.
"Don't want to bring any attention!" He hissed at the bowtied boy. Matt only ignored him and walked back into 221b taking Peter be surprise.
"Back so soon?" Jack asked glancing over to the rest of us upon entering the room.
"Ran into an inconvenience." Sherlock responded bluntly following Matt to the window.
"And it wasn't caused by me." I add doing the same.
  Matt was the first to go down, following John, Sherlock, Chris, Bucky,me then Sam. Fifty minutes left. Once we were all on the ground we continued on towards the crime scene stopping at the entrance.
"You only have forty minutes to get in and out." Chris reminded checking his watch.
"I only need ten." Sherlock stated holding his hand out towards me impatiently awaiting for me to give  him the keys. I narrow my gaze at him pushing  by to get to the door. I quickly unlock it moving out of the way as Sherlock quickly entered.
"We'll alert you if we hear or see anything suspicious." Chris said turning on the radio.
"More suspicious than a bunch of kids breaking into  a murder scene?" Bucky asks jokingly as him, Matt, Sam and I walk into the building splitting up in to two once we get to the office. Before i can walk in Sam grabs my wrist.
"Samantha, what you might see in there-" I cut him off before he can finish.
"I'll be fine. It's nothing I haven't seen before." And with that I enter the room to see Sherlock sniffing around like  a blood hound. "You okay?" I ask hesitant.
"Smell that?" He asks turning around in circles trying to find the source. I sniff the air.
"Yea, smell like rotten egg, that or it is just the after scent  of dead body."
"What decomposing body has the scent of rotten egg?" He questions Turing to face you giving you that could you be stupider look.
"Sorry I haven't been around enough dead bodies to recognize their stench."
"Could you two please shut up." Matt said from by a window waving around some sort wand that in which you were to turn on produced a green light shinning from the tip followed by a buzzing noise. I stood there silently watching the two scan the room when I wondered over to a window to see if I could spot John and Chris from here when I noticed something dusting the windowsill.
"Sulfur." I whisper under my breath brushing my fingers over the substance.
"What was that?" Matt ask pulling up from under the desk.
"Sulfur!" I repeat smiling becoming more sure of my conclusion.
"Sulfur?" Sherlock questions.
"Yea, a nonmetallic element that exists in several forms, the ordinary one being  a yellow rohmbic crystalline solid, and that burns with a blue flame and not to mention the suffocating oder. Ring a bell? You're suppose to be the chemist here!" I explain. Matt was already by the window scanning the yellow dust with his wand thing.
"Yes!" He shouts in excitement! "You're brilliant!" He exclaims running over to you kissing  you on the forehead. A gesture  he often did  when he was caught in the moment. "Now the question is, why is it there?" The moment  was interrupted when Mr. Singer came walking into the room. Sam and Bucky following behind a look of defeat on the expressions.
"What the hell are you kids doing in here!?" He questioned as the room fell silent. No one daring to speak. Not even Sherlock? Now that I think about it he's been quiet for a while, I glance over to the curly hair boy and he seemed to be staring very intently at nothing. He's In his 'mind palace'. Matt was the first to speak.
"My apologies sir, we...uh... were just..." He cleared his throat.
"Save it. Yer lucky I don't turn you kids into Fury." Mr. Singer said looking around  at all of us stopping his gaze on Sam.
"Wait, you're not going to turn us in?" Bucky asks looking up.
"No, but I expect to see all of you and anyone else that  was involved in detention-" he cut himself of when his attention turned to something else. He too sniffed the air before turning back to all of us. "Alright, whatever you're tryin to do for Arthur, drop it!" He urged all of us out of the building where we ran back into Chris and John. "You boys are mixed up in this too!?"
