Malik's POV

The school was in complete chaos, everyone running around screaming. That's when I heard the second gun shot.

"Ryou, come on we gotta get out of he-," I turned around and he wasn't by my side.

"Ryou!!" I screamed, but I got silence in return. I decided to turn back to look for him, figuring he probably fell somewhere along the way. As I was heading back, another gunshot rang in my ears, and that's when I saw Ryou. He had just fallen to the floor, dead.

I stood there for a moment not believing my eyes. I was in total shock, and then the tears came. Then everything became a blur, until I found myself outside in someone's arms. I looked up and saw I was in my brother's embrace. I collapsed to my knees crying hysterically. I tried to block everything out, but to no avail. The pandemonium around me was impossible to ignore. And all I could do was cry.

Normal POV

Yugi ran over to the group looking just as distraught as the rest of the student body.

"H-has anyone seen Joey?" He asked frantically. Marik just shook his head and everyone heard another gun shot. Everyone jumped, and Malik sobbed harder.

"What's going on?" Bakura came running to the group. He had been outside on his lunch hour when the first show was fired.

"There's someone shooting a gun inside the school," Yugi stated, his voice soft. The information took awhile to process in Bakura's mind, but when it did he began to look around frantically.

"Where's my brother?" He looked to Malik on the ground sobbing into his brother's arms. "Where's Ryou?"

Marik looked up to him sadly and shook his head. Malik broke down into hysterics.

"Don't look at me like that Marik! And don't play this joke on me. Tell me where my baby brother is!" Bakura said in a clenched voice.

"I'm sorry Bakura, but h-he didn't make it out, I-I saw him..." Marik tried to explain, but Bakura would have nothing of it.

"If he's still in the school then I'm going to go get him," And with that said Bakura took off into the school. Yugi ran after him, hoping to find Joey.

Marik just sat there and held his little brother praying the chaos would end soon, but dreading the out come of it all.
