Cimmerlin Academy

by 14MayRose

May has been arrested...again. And her parents are sending her to Cimmerlin Academy. Now instead of hating her new boarding school, May finds herself enjoying herself with new friends and instant connections. But this isn't your average school. The building hides a secret itself, never mind the darker and more dangerous one the teachers and pupils hold. It's a dangerous place to be

"Come on, can't you go any faster?"

"No worries, it's not like we're going to get caught or anything."

"Yeah, but still, this is me, I can't help but worry."

"That's what makes you so boring."

"Hey, that's a bit mean, May"

"I don't care"

"Hey did you hear something?"

The three figures clad in black, looked around the dusty corridor of Eldon High School. There was an eerie silence in the absence of the spray-can expelling paint.

"You must be imagining things, Brianna"

"But I'm not, listen!"

This time very quiet, light breathing could be heard. May pulled out an elastic band, and wrapped it round the top and bottom of the can.

"You are mad!"

Quietly they all crept away, with the elastic band creating a diversion. Halfway down the corridor they turned into a crossed pathway. With a nod they split up, May turning left, Brendan and Brianna to the right. Checking every door she passed, she sprinted down the passageway until one opened. It just so happened that the one open room was a store cupboard.

'So, all the classrooms are closed but a room full of harmful and dangerous chemicals is open? Whoever thought of that must be the smartest person on this planet…' May reflected, 'Oh well, it's a hiding place. Just in time too…'

Footsteps could be heard echoing down the hallway as she slipped into the storage room. As the footsteps got louder, May's heart raced faster and quicker until it was almost painful. Her eyes started to water, and simple action such as breathing became hard to accomplish. The last thing May remembered was the cupboard door swinging open, letting knock-out gas pour out of the small room, as well as a pocket-sized grey canister that rolled along the polished marble floor towards the foot of one of three policemen/women wearing gas masks, one holding handcuffs, one with a shoulder bag- no doubt full of supplies in case of a fight-, and one holding Brianna.

"We've got you now"

Sorry to all of my readers who got confused with whether it was Brianna, Brendan or both. It was meant to be both so sorry if it wasn't clear enough.

Review please!
