*Dodges rotten tomatoes* Hi guys! Miss me? Good because I missed you guys too. I'm sorry haven't been here in a while it's just some major shit happened and now in a relatively drama free place. So I came up with a cool idea for a new story and hope you guys like. All of the characters are in High School. Also as much as I hate to say this, there will be character death so if you don't want to see a character you like, this is not the story for you.

7:30-Jace

Jace made his way down the hallway to the science lab where he was helping Sebastian Verlac with Chemistry homework. Not that anyone cared, it was six seven am for god's sake. He moved sluggishly through the main hallway, in a half awake stupor. Jace was tired from the AP bio homework he had to do. Essays weren't his thing, especially on something as boring as cellular respiration. He was the "bad boy" as everyone liked to call him. Jace didn't wear glasses, or have suspenders in his closet but he was a big nerd. He rounded the corner into the class where Sebastian, the senior captain of the football, was setting highlighters into neat rows by color. Unbeknownst to anyone, Sebastian had OCD and needed everything placed accordingly.

"Seb, you ready," asked Jace, leaning on the threshold of the door.

"Let's do this," said Seb and Jace sat down and got started.

7:45-Clary

"Clarissa, time to get up," her mother bounded into the room. Clary groaned and slumped lower under the covers. She really didn't want to go to school today. A) because she had a presentation on something that she wasn't particularly fond of (Cellular respiration) and B) she was so tired she wasn't even sure she could get up.

"Clarissa, seriously," her mother, Jocelyn, tried again. Only this time, she took the opportunity to rip off the covers. Clarywas suddenly exposed to the cold in her threadbare camisole and shorts.

"By the Angel, I'm up," shouted Clary, sitting straight up in bed. Jocelyn backed out of the room. Clary rolled her eyes, got dressed, and kissed her old brother Jon on the cheek before leaving for school.

8:40- Jace

"So who is next for their presentation," asked Mr. Pangborn, looking around the classroom. Jace sunk lower into his seat.

"Jace, why don't you go next," asked Mr. Pangborn. Jace muttered a stream of profanities before getting up with his paper. Suddenly there was screaming. Everyone in the class looked puzzled, even Mr. Pangborn.

"What are they doing in there," Mr. Pangborn asked. Everyone shrugged and went back to what they were doing.

"Cellular Respiration is when cells make en-"Jace started but was immediately cut off by more screaming. This time more frantically than before.

"I'm going to see what's happening. Nobody leave," replied Mr. Pangborn looking around at the class. Jace took his seat as soon as Mr. Pangborn left the room. Suddenly there was another scream from down the hall. Jace felt his phone buzz and everyone in the class looked at him. It was Alec, one of his friends from the class down the hall. Jace looked down at his phone.

Shooters. 4 dead.

Jace felt his face blanch.

"Jace, what's wrong," asked Jordan Kyle, turning around in his chair. All of the eye were on him.

"There are shooters in the school. Next door. Four are dead," he said, his voice hollow. The reaction was instantaneous everyone was buzzing trying to absolve the panic that set in. Jace looked down at his phone again, his dad probably wouldn't answer anyway.

Okay so that was chapter one! AHHHH. It really has been a while. I can't tell you how much I miss this. Don't forget to review!
