"I was so close".
Malakai locked eyes with the guy, "Are you sure you don't have the wrong guy?" He asked, not intimidated. The guy was about 5'10, so he was looking down at Malakai. Well, most guys did, as Malakai was short.
The guy looked Malakai up and down, "IT'S YOU!" Out of nowhere, the guy lunged and tried to bring Malakai to the ground. Malakai saw it coming from a mile off, so he easily evaded it. He still held onto the bag full of sweets; he wanted to take them home.
"GUYS! I FOUND HIM!" The guy shouted. When Malakai turned his head, he saw five other people look towards him.
"Long day", Malakai said to himself. He took off and ran to where his friends were. They hadn't moved from that spot. It looked like they were waiting for him, or Benjamin couldn't move William and Lucas.
"Yo, we need to go!" Malakai hastily said to them.
"What's in the bag?" William drunkily pointed.
"I'll show you later. We need to go", Malakai replied, checking his shoulders.
"Mally, you need to carry Will again. He can't move, he thinks he's floating", Lucas giggled.
"Ben, why didn't you move them?" Malakai asked, ignoring Lucas.
"I tried, but they were having their own conversation. You try disrupting two drunks talking", Benjamin replied, defending himself. "Where did you go?" He asked. Malakai looked behind him and saw six people running towards him. "Oh.." Benjamin saw the same image Malakai saw.
"I need to go. Take care of them two", Malakai said. He gave one last look to William and Lucas, who looked clueless. "Go home", he told them.
Shouts of "GET HIM" drew closer. That was Malakai's cue to run off. With the sweet bag in his right hand, he left his friends and went on a mission to escape. He swiftly moved past people and tables; miraculously, he didn't bump or knock into anything. His eyes analysed everything. He needed to find the exit but couldn't remember where it was. The flashing lights made it confusing and made it hard to spot anything. The place was huge, which was surprising as the entrance made it look like a tiny back room. His pursuers were still following him in the distance, but they would eventually catch him if he couldn't find the way out. He had to be careful not to find a dead end; if he did, it was game over. Malakai wasn't at full speed, but he was still rapid. He didn't have much space to run; his quick-stepping was enough to get away from them for now, at least.
"HEY!"
A shout, but it wasn't from behind him. It was to his right. He turned his head and saw the black door and what looked like the outside peeking through the bodies blocking it. The shout was coming from people arguing at the door. People wanted to get in, but someone wasn't allowing them inside. Malakai swivelled on his feet, changed direction and went towards the door. He pulled the ski mask over his head so his whole face was covered, and only his eyes showed. He reached the door and pushed past the people that were there. No one stopped him. Most of them didn't know what moved them because Malakai ducked down and kept low. It was like a little kid pushing through them. Luckily, he wasn't grabbed by someone; he was already out by the time he was noticed. He made it. He was outside. He could stretch his legs and run at his max. He's more or less escaped; they weren't going to catch Malakai. Malakai's night was entertaining, for sure.
Here is what Malakai did in more detail. When he separated from Benjamin, he walked around tables and secretly brushed cocaine off them while he walked past. He covertly stole a few blunts and pills from people and threw them on the floor. He then saw a person take off their mask for a moment to take a drink; while they weren't looking, Malakai nabbed the mask. The mask was a full-face mask with a similar design to the masks in Money Heist. With this new mask, he became adventurous. More daring. Instead of secretly accomplishing his mission, he decided to be more obvious. Now, he would go to the tables and strike up a conversation with these people. When they warmed up to him and even offered him some drugs, Malakai would do what he wanted. If someone passed him a blunt, he would throw it on the floor and stomp on it; if someone gave him a drink, he would pour it on the floor; if someone offered him a needle, he would drop it; and if they offered him cocaine, he would blow it off the table. All of this in front of them. There were a few close calls where he was almost caught, but he was a slippery guy. He made it out of every situation. The scenario that caused him to call it a night was when someone grabbed his face and pulled his stolen mask off, revealing his face. Luckily, he had his ski mask underneath pulled up; otherwise, he would've been exposed. He slipped away because the guy was off his face, drunk, high or both. He then wandered around the party to try to find one of his friends, and after some time, he managed to find Benjamin. Malakai thought he was safe, but they recognised his clothes despite not seeing his face.
So now we are here, Malakai running away. Malakai was outside on the campus. It was around fifteen minutes past midnight. It was dark out, and only the street light illuminated the place. Malakai had a good lead, but they were still in sight. Malakai knew he was safe; he just had to keep running. Malakai didn't take anything the whole night, so he was technically sober. But the entire night, he was high on adrenaline. Even right now, he is running for his life. Maybe coming to this party was worth it after all. Malakai made a few detours, turning corners and running to places without street lights. He didn't realise he lost the people chasing him a while ago. To tell the truth, the people chasing him gave up a long time ago. To be more precise, they gave up after Malakai turned the first corner outside of the club. Malakai didn't notice as he was too paranoid, so with every voice he heard or shadow he saw in the corner of his eyes, he thought it was them. Malakai finally looked back and saw no one.
"They're gone", he said, out of breath. He took out his phone and looked at the time. It was 23 minutes past midnight; he ran for about 8 minutes straight. He texted in the group chat asking if they were alright and made it out. Benjamin replied with a video showing him and Lucas carrying a lifeless William. Malakai smiled at the video. It looked like the night was over. It was a pretty successful night for him; he had fun and got a bag full of sweets.
Home time. Malakai walked back to the dorm building, tired. He entered the building and entered the elevator, pressing his floor number and waiting for him to arrive. The doors opened, and he stepped out. He walked down the corridor to his dorm. The dorm keys were cards, and Malakai kept his key on the back of his phone with his phone case, keeping it safe. He pulled out his phone and was about to take off his phone case to get his key until,
"AAAAHHHHH!"
He heard a muffled scream coming from next door. Maria and Tanisha's dorm. He then heard some muffled talking.
"They're probably watching a movie", he thought. Curious, he went over and knocked on their door.
"AAHHH!"
Another muffled scream. His knock must have startled them. Malakai smirked, "I wonder who that is". The door slowly opened, and someone peeked through the tiny gap.
"Trick or treat".
"What are you doing?" Tanisha asked as she fully opened the door, revealing her green night pyjamas. What she was looking at was Malakai standing back with a ski mask covering up to his nose, revealing his messy hair and white eyes. He was also holding a bag up to her.
"What does it look like? I'm trick or treating", Malakai replied, holding up the bag.
"What's in the bag?" Tanisha asked, looking at it.
"It's sweets, I stole it from the party", Malakai said.
"Why are you standing so far back? She asked, looking at Malakai weirdly.
"I stink. I came from a party that had drugs everywhere", he casually replied.
"Drugs?" Tanisha said, looking concerned. Tanisha leaned forward and sniffed the air around Malakai. As soon as she caught a whiff of it, she covered her nose and scrunched her face.
"I didn't do any", Malakai quickly said before he was accused.
"What type of drugs?" Tanisha quietly asked.
"Weed, LSD, heroin, cocaine and some other shit", Malakai listed. “It was fuuuuucccckkkked”.
"Why did you go?" She asked, sceptical that Malakai was lying about taking anything.
"Willy got told there was a secret Halloween party, so we went. We didn't know it would be like that, though", Malakai replied.
"What did you even do? You said you didn't take anything", Tanisha wanted to know more.
"I didn't. I ruined the party. I was throwing joints and blowing cocaine off tables", Malakai grinned, but Tanisha couldn't see it because of the mask.
"And nothing happened to you?" Tanisha asked, looking Malakai up and down for any injuries.
"Naa. I got chased, but that's it. You can't tell, but I'm sweating; I had to run around campus to get away", he replied, sounding proud.

1:01 AM
William entered his room stumbling. The walk home took longer than it should have, mainly because Lucas kept fooling around. William made his way to his desk and put his hands on it to balance himself. He went into his pocket and grabbed something; he pulled it out and looked at it. It was an unopened small packet of cocaine. He didn't buy it, he found it on a table at the party and picked it up. He didn't do any drugs like Malakai told him, so he didn't sniff or try any cocaine, but he had his hands on some cocaine now. William stared at the packet. Tempted.

"Yo, your back", Malakai said while opening the door.
William quickly scrunched his hands and put them in his pockets. "Yeah", he awkwardly replied.
"What happened to your costume?" Malakai asked, looking at him.
"Ah, I uuh ditched it. When walking back. It was getting in the way", William replied, struggling to look at Malakai.
Malakai looked at William, "Are you good?" he asked as his body language was weird.
"Yeah, yeah. I'm good", William nodded, trying to act normal. There was silence for a moment.
"Aryt, take a shower. You'll feel better", Malakai said, leaving the room.
William waited for the door to close. When it did, he took his hands out of his pockets and unfolded them, showing the packet again. He stared at it again for a few seconds, fighting temptations. He won. He opened a drawer and threw the packet near the back. He hesitated to close it but forced himself to do it.
"I'm never touching that again".
