Devin sorted through colored papers on his desk, looking for the PERFECT paper to make the valentine. But all he had were green, pink, and yellow. Way too nice.
"Would you like to use my special paper?" a soft voice asked.
Devin looked over to the next desk and saw Yuliya offering him a silver wrapped box. Yuliya was new at school and so shy she NEVER spoke to anyone. Everyone knew she lived in the weird Wildmare Mansion and no one was brave enough to be her friend.
But Devin was feeling brave and reckless, so he took the box from Yuliya. Inside were sheets of the most unusual paper he'd ever seen; black-claw scratches around the edges and small blood-red drops splattered on a bone-white background. There were even matching envelopes.
"Cool!" Devin said. "Where'd you get the box?"
"I found it." She pushed back her red hair and smiled shyly. "In my attic."
Devin shivered and decided that Yuliya must be very brave to go into THAT spooky attic. He thanked her, and then begin to draw the most WICKED valentine.
First he drew a picture of Mrs. Massey. Only instead of a mouth, he gave her sharp fangs. And her body was shaped like a spider, with six hairy arms and two big slimy red eyeballs. Her lizard tongue whipped out like a rope and gross warts covered her face.
Then Devin wrote the poisonous words: "Don't be mine, Valentine! BE-WARE!"
He didn't sign his name. Instead, he hid the valentine in his backpack. Then during lunch while Mrs. Massey was away, he snuck back into the classroom and slipped the valentine from his backpack, placing it on the teacher's desk.

"There! That'll teach HER!" Smiling to himself, Devin started to leave...only suddenly he heard a strange noise. PLOPP! FIZZLE! GRRRR!
"What was that?"he murmured.
