The Lockdown

hey... dont die on me....

chapter 1

 "Hey N-Natasha... c- can you... can you hear that?''

I turn to my friend, he looks like death just struck... i ask him whats wrong and then I hear the short blastings of a school bell. I look at everyone and they all look scared, to be honest, im scared too.

 

The teachers tell us to get under the tables but all the students talk amongst there selves and I just look in horror at the window... " t- there.... oh no..." i yell at everyone to get down but when i yelled... I accedently caught the attraction of the person the set the bell of in the first place... there was a man standing there, gun in his hand and a knife in the other.

 

I pause and I wait to see what happens next, suddenly, he points the gun directly towards me and I duck down and the only thing I could here is a bang.... as I flinched, the only thing that was going through my mind was the thought that if he shot at us, does that mean he knows that we are here?

as I start to open my eyes, I look over to my friend who is also flinching in fear.

I look around to see if the actual bullet hit anybody and to my suprise, it didnt.

"Thank god!" I wispered.

chapter 2

I feel a sence of relief due to the fact that I know that nobody was hurt and as I go to say something to my friend, I froze.... i hear a bang at the door and the slight hitch of breathing that came from my friend... he knows that we are here...

 

As he keeps in banging at the door, we just sit there not being able to do anything because of all of the fear that is running within ourselves. suddenly we heaer another bang of a gun and we soon hear the sounds of a unlocked door. he shot off the lock...

 

I go to hide even more under the desk untill I see the teacher go behind the door, oh no... what is she going to do? is she going to try to stop him?!?

I quickly and swiftly crawl to the door and I tell the teacher in a wisper, "im going to help u miss... I know what you are going to do and because of that, im going to help you stop him." the teacher replied with " no way Natasha! there will be at no time that im going to let any of my students die on me today! do you understand me natasha!?!"

I stare at miss while her words go through my head but soon I dismiss the thought and I reply with, "miss... im not going to go and leave you to go out there to just get killed from him, I wont allow it! if you die, im going to die! even if I dont get killed... I will die on the inside due to all of the guilt that will lie within my head and in my heart!" The teacher froze for a second and the she nods... " Fine but if you die and I dont... I will make myself die..."

We both nod at each other as we brace for the impact of a man to suddenly go through the door...

 

chapter 3

As we braced for the sudden push of a full grown man, we looked at all of the other students and they look back... we both know in our minds that they are very scared and that they dont want me or the teacher to do this but also as we look further at them, they are also very thankful for us doing this.... he barged at the door and with all of that power catching us off guard, we get pushed out of the way of the door and the man walks in with a knife and a gun... He said,

" Well well well... what do we have here? a whole bunch of students and a teacher! ha! this is going to be fun..."

He points the gun at everybody and says in a very deep and low voice, " who. wants. to. die. FIRST..."

 

He points the gun at my friend, getting ready to shoot untill my teacher walks infrount of the gun, " im not going to let any of my students die before I do! if your going to kill them, well... kill me first!" he replies with, " well if you want to die first then well... BE MY GUEST!!!"

He point the gun at the teachers head and just as he was about to shoot, I jump up and with the hidden knife that was hidden in my sleve, I stab him and I hear a bang...

for a second, I couldnt hear a thing except a large ringing in my ear and when I open my eyes back up, I notice that my teacher get shot but not in the head, in the sholder.

 

I looked at the man that I stabbed and I notice that he's trying to grab the gun again so I quickly grab the gun before he could get it and I point it directly at the man and I say, " stand up. Now!", he does as I told him and he stands up with his right arm in the air and his left arm just hanging... I then notice that he has still got a knife in his left hand and as I go to tell him to drop it, he grabs a student from the ground and holds the knife up against the childs neck and he says, " if you let me go then i will let the child go with no harm what so ever! ok? " I reply with a harsh tone in my voice, " Never! why should I let you get away with this when you have shot my teacher, your threatening to kill a student and why should I believe you when you say that your going to let the child go when you get out of the school!" " As I said... let. me. go... and the child will be safe." 

 

He drags the knife along the childs neck and lets the knife draw a little blood.

 

Once i saw that, I then thought to myself, you liar...

" You said that you wouldnt hurt him!" " Why for a second would you think that I would let a child go without them getting hurt?"  "Your sick..."

 

He just stares at me with a sickening grin on his face and says to me,

" well then, I didnt expect to hear that coming from you natasha?"

"H-how do you know my name?"

 

All the children turn their heads at me while I notice that there eyes have been turned to black with blood coming out of their eyes. I turned to the man with the knife against the childs throat and I now know why im here... I met the devil himself and as he stares at me with his grin, he pulls the knife along the childs throat and cuts it, leaving the child to bleed out in pool of blood.

he then says to me...
