The bell rang. It was 5th period, science with Hogan. As I was heading for my locker an announcement came over the P.A. "Attention students, a storm is heading our way we may experience a few power outages. If this occurs it will only last a few minutes." I was thinking to my self 'there were no storms in the for cast, just sunny weather all week. Oh well nothing to get excited about, it's not like I haven't seen a little rough weather'. After I got my things form my locker I headed over to talk with nick, one of my friends who is also in Hogan 5th.
The second bell rang. We walked hurriedly towards our next class, Hogan usually gets mad if were late. He was stand outside his door like a guard at his post, as usual. After asking us why we were late he told us to go sit down. As he was about to start teaching the lights started to flicker slightly at first, then it grew more intense. I looked outside and it was pitch black. People started to crack jokes like, "holy crap were all going to die!" and "it's the end of the world!" everyone laughed as usual and Hogan told them to settle down.
Almost as soon as he said that the lights went out. It was almost pitch black, just like outside. People took the opportunity to make weird and funny noises. Again just like before, except with a little more edge in his voice, probably from aggravation, told everyone to settle down. The emergency lights flicked on. There was I slight moan from everybody. Now strangely enough the emergency lights started to flicker just a bit, almost barley noticeable, yet still noticeable. They flickered down to a point were you almost might not notice them. They cast an eerie, dim glow on the room.
Someone shouted and pointed to the floor. Everyone looked to see a red circle form on the floor. Inside the circle was an upside down star with littler circles on three of the points. I knew that symbol, it was the symbol of the Antichrist, but the real question was what the hell it was doing here on Mr. Hogan's floor. With amazement everyone crowded around the red glowing circle. Apparently someone got to close because a clawed hand appeared out of the circle and clamped it self tightly on his face. The hand had an almost scaly appearance but It was skin, it was a dark brownish blue. After a few seconds of suspense the hand pulled the first victim of what would be the worst slaughter the world has ever seen into the circle, into what looked to be solid floor! There was no hole in the circle; in fact you can see the floor on the other side. There were a few muffled screams and a few weird noises form the circle and then all was silent. A bloody puddle formed in the circle.
That's when everyone panicked. They started to run out the door only to find more of the same circles. More appeared in Hogan's class as well. The only safe place I could find was in the little storage closet in back of the room. Unfortunately for me it was locked. I had to think fast, I looked outside the room. The emergency lights really didn't help the situation much, as they looked all but burned out. From what I heard things outside weren't going so well, but then again, things weren't looking as good for those of us still in the classroom ether. .
