Chapter 1
Santana's PV
Being back here at McKinley is weird. I haven't been here since I left for New York, well the better way to put it is that I haven't been back since Britt turned me down, and here I am, about to walk into the choir room and see her and her boyfriend together. Oh god I just wanna hurt bloody Trouty. As I enter through the door Mr Schue is just starting the lesson and I am a little relieved that Britt isn't there yet. I let out a sigh of relief and take a seat in the front of the class. Is a Wednesday, so Britt would be in the locker room. Most likely having a shower, and getting lost in her thoughts.
Bang
The whole class goes silent when we hear it. We aren't sure what it is. It could have been anything, it wasn't definitely a gun.
Bang
Once the second shot is fired we all hide for cover. All apart from me that is. The first place my mind goes is Brittany. She still isn't here. I don't know if she is ok or not. I look over to Sam who is making sure he is as invisible as possible. Mr Schue pushes me towards a corner.
"Santana, you need to hide."
"Mr Schue, what I need to do is go and find Britt." When I mention Brittany's name Sam perks up.
"She's probably fine, there's no need to try and be a hero Santana." I clench my fists at my side. What he thinks I'm worried about Britt just to look like a hero. "Just to make me look bad and try win her back, well guess what she chose me." That's it. I launch across the room at him, since I'm not a student no one dares to stop me. I pull my fist back and he just smiles. "Do it." I realize what he is up to an curse myself for being so stupid. I let him go and walk to the door.
"Santana, you are NOT leaving this class room." Mr Schue yells after me. He gets up from his place and blocks my way. "Santana, now is not the time." He guides me back to the corner and holds onto me so that I don't try and get up again. I sit there. Frantically trying to dial Britt's number.
"Pick up damn it PICK UP." I yell at my phone.
Then we hear it. Someone running down the hall crying. The first door knob rattles. They cry harder. They run to the second door. The door rattles. We hear another sob. Then they run off into the hall.
Bang.
We all jump, we hadn't heard a gunshot in about 20 minutes. I felt a pang in my chest. I just had a really horrible feeling that something was wrong with Britt. I get up, no one can stop me this time, and I make a beeline for the door.

I was in the locker room after practice having a shower when I heard it. The first one scared me, but it could have been anything to it didn't panic me too much, but I did rush out of the shower to get dressed just in case. As I was putting on my Cheerio top the second shit fired. I knew I was meant to be in the choir room but I just get so caught up in though that I lose track of time. I quickly without thinking grab my bag from the seat and run as fast as I can to the choir room. I start crying at the thought that the shooter could be on the loose. I rattle the handle to the choir room but of course it's locked. I try the other door but it is locked as well. I start sobbing and run around the school trying to find a place to hide. I quickly go into a bathroom stall and stand on the seat. Please let me be safe. Then my mind drifted off to Santana. That's why I was so lost in thought. I was thinking about her. I really hope she comes to find me.
Bang.

All hell breaks loose as I try to get out the door. Mr Schue and coach beast both try and stop me, but I show them how snix truly works. Mr Schue has his arms wrapped around me and I don't even think before I make my action, I jab my heel into Mr Schues foot and elbow him in the throat when he doesn't let go. Beast isn't even brave enough to try to stop me. I kick off my heels and tell beast, I will come back and state my name, when I do that let us in, and with that I was gone.
I walk quickly to the locker room to see where Britt could be. I dial her phone and hear a buzzing. I quickly follow it relieved that I found her so quick. When I turn the corner I can see Britt's phone but I can't see her.
"Britt?" I sort of whisper shout. "It's me, B, it's San." She doesn't reply so I assume that she isn't in her. I grab her phone and make my way to the bathrooms.
Bang

That makes four shots. I am really worried, I am standing on the top of a toilet crying for my ex-girlfriend. That probably doesn't even care where I am. No I can't say that about Santana. No matter what people say, she will and always has cared for me. I can tell that she would be worrying about me. She always does have me in mind. It wouldn't surprise me if she was texting me. I better check my phone. MY PHONE WHY HAVENT I THOUGHT TO USE MY PHONE. I look through my bag. Where is it? it isn't in my bag I can't find it anywhere. Shit.

When the fourth gunshot goes off I admit that I really do start to freak out a little more. It means that the gunman is still in the school and I could run into them at any moment. But Brittany. That's who I am doing this for. She is all I have in this world and yes we aren't together but she still is the most important thing to me, I have to make sure she is ok. I turn the corner and stop in my tracks. A man going into a class room, but not any man, it's the gunman. I stop and try to think about what I should do. I see that the toilets are only across the hall, but if I am not careful he is going to see me go into them, the longer I delay, the faster he will find me. I carefully but quickly run across the hall and open the door. I think I am lucky and don't grab his attention. Whilst I am in the toilet I seem to notice that there are two other doors closed.
"Brittany?" no reply. Please let her be in here. "B, baby it's San"
"san!" she wraps herself in my arms when she bursts out of the door. She starts to sob into my shoulder and I just hug her tighter. "San, I honestly thought that I was never going to get to see you again." She looks at me and just smiles. "I am so glad that you came to find me, there is no one that I needed more than you at this moment. She leans forward and captures my lips in hers. "Oh, sorry."
"It's ok, B. we can talk later, we just need to get back to the choir room. The gunman is out there."
Her face drops and I can tell that she is really scared at the moment. I am as well but I am trying to hide it so she doesn't freak out. I grab her face and tilt her head up. "Brittany, I am not going to let ANYONE hurt you ever. Ok, I am here right now, and I promise you that no one is going to hurt you.
We go to leave the bathroom and we are so quiet to try and not draw attention to us, since we are trying to get away as fast as we can but quietly. We turn the corner and there he is. Britt gasps and we turn and try and head the other way. We think we miss him but then we hear it.
Bang
I reach around and notice that I haven't been shot, I frantically search Britt. She's fine to.
"Where are you going so fast ladies?"
