A/N: Short chapter...Sorry!

While Rodney and the girls were having trouble with Playtime...Max, Sam, and Sophie soon find theirselves back in the clutches of Baidi...

SNAP!...SNAP!...SNAP!

Sam:....

Max: This is bad...Really bad...

Sophie: W-What do we do now?

Max:....Sophie! Run!

Sophie: W-What?

Max: Run! I'll hold him off! Now go!

Sophie:.......

Sophie nods at Max before running down the hall. Max then looks at Sam who had a look that wonders what was he going to do.

Max: Sam...You run too!

Sam: What! No!

Max: There's no time!

Baidi was just down the hall coming near them. Max had to think of something quick or else they're screwed.

Before he could think of anything, Sam beat him to it.

Sam: Hey Mr. Baidi! MATH SUCKS!

This provokes Baidi as he glared at Sam before went even faster to show that he was more angry as he chased after Sam in a fury.

SNAP! SNAP! SNAP! SNAP! SNAP!

Max: Sam! No!

....It was too late...Baidi had already gone after Sam who ran down the north hallways.

Max: Sam....Please be okay...

Even though they only met a couple of minutes ago...Sam had already declared Max his best friend...and Max was grateful. He didn't want Sam to die. He hope he can meet him again later. But right now he had to look for the others and get what they needed.

Max walk down the halls of the school and saw some comic pictures on the wall. The stick figure in the picture looked like Baidi. Maybe it was a concidence. He didn't get who made them though. Probably some kid who didn't like the teacher.

It didn't matter now that Baldi is hostile. Max can still hear the same smacking sound and cricket chirps becoming deeper in sound at the back of his ears. Baldi will still move in the teleporting-ish kind of movement, but will move very fast in this very moment...

At this rate...escape will become almost impossible to attempt.

Max: I better get going...So I can go find the other notebooks.
