So new stories guys! Let me know what you think and if you like it let me know. This part is really only a bit of intro chapter then chapter one will start with the movie.
Prologue:
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Gunshots rang through the halls of Hillside Academy along with the sounds of teachers and students screaming. Ashley looked to the side at her friend Beth who was clutching her hand tightly as they tried to stay as quiet as possible. Their teacher, Mr. Brighten, was crouched by the door keeping an eye out for the shooter as he talked to the 911 operator.
Bang!
Mr. Brighten dropped to the floor; the phone in his hand dropping and sliding away. A bullet hole dripped blood from the middle of his forehead.
Ashley slapped her free hand over her mouth to keep from screaming out loud. Beth jumped and buried her face in Ashley's shoulder to keep from looking at their dead teacher. Ashley however couldn't pull her eyes away from the scene. She felt her body shaking as the door was slammed open and legs clad in black jeans and black sneakers walked in. Closing her eyes she felt tears slipping down her cheeks as the shooter made his way around the room.
"Come out, come out wherever you." he said. She knew his voice but she couldn't place him. She heard his footsteps moving to one of the tables. "Stacey! David!" he exclaimed. "Remember yesterday when you tripped me in hallway? Or when you had your boyfriend here throw me in the trashcan because you thought it would be funny." he laughed cruelly. "Well I think this is funny."
Bang! Bang!
Ashley barely restrained herself from screaming as she heard the sounds of the two students screams. Around the room he went shooting the other students that hid under the desks making taunts at them as he did. Finally the shooter was in front of the desk that she and Beth were hiding under. "Hello there!" he said as he bent to look at the two of them.
It was then that she recognized his face. "T-Thomas?" she asked in surprise. "Wh-what are you doing? Why are you doing this?" The three had been friends since they were children. She, Beth, and Thomas, had grown up together when their parents had introduced them to one another when they were four years old.
"Why? Why?" he nearly shouted. "Because of how they've treated us! Like we didn't matter! Like we were less than they were. You and I were shunned because we didn't like to wear what they wore, or listen to the music they listened to. And Beth! They kicked her off the cheerleading team all because she was friends with us!"
"That doesn't give you the right to kill them!" she shouted back. "Look around you! Is this really what you want? To be remembered as a murderer?" When Beth looked behind him she noticed one of the football players sneaking up slowly behind Thomas.
"I won't be remembered as a murderer!" Thomas said. "I'll be remembered for bringing justice to this school! For doing what the administration refused to do."
The football player lunged then and tackled Thomas to the ground. The two rolled around on the ground both attempting to hold on to the handgun Thomas had been using. Suddenly the gun went off and the bullet went soaring through the air and toward Beth.
Thinking fast Ashley shoved her friend out of the way and felt her left knee crumble as pain exploded through her leg. She screamed as she dropped down clutching her leg.
Bang!
Another shot went off and this time the bullet sliced through her left shoulder.
Ashley lay on the ground in a pool of her own blood as tears slid down her cheeks from the pain. Her vision was becoming cloudy as darkness began creeping around the edges of her eye sight. Vaguely she heard someone calling for her. Felt the sensation of being lifted and placed on something soft. Before she fully lost consciousness she saw the faces of her brothers, Michael and Sam, and her mother Lucy.
