High School Murder Chapter 3
Sharpay was shaking with fear, as they slowly moved down the hallway. They heard a loud crash and everyone screamed. Sharpay grabbed Ryans arm still shaking. "Ok who else thinks this is a really bad idea?" said Gabriella terrified.
"I think Im with Gabriella!" said Tayler ready to go back to the classroom.
"This is probably just a prank!" said Chad.
"A mass murderer escapes from prison, and you think that someone is pranking us?" said Ryan.
"Well! Its more like Im hoping!" said Chad showing some fear.
"Look! We have to try to find Jason and Kelsie." said Troy.
"What if theres nothing left to be found?" said Gabriella shakily. Sharpay shuddered. The rest of them stopped and looked at each other. Gabriella grabbed Troys hand as they slowly began advancing to the bathroom. The boys bathroom door opened and they all screamed. Out of the bathroom came Jason. "Whats with you guys?" he asked. There was a sigh of relief. "Where's Kelsie?" he asked looking around. They all just starred at each other and then at the girls bathroom. Gabriella moved slowly forward to the door. Sharpay tightened her grip on her brothers arm. She looked back at the group and opened the door. All except Sharpay peered inside. In the middle of the floor was a pool of blood. They all screamed and backed away from the door letting it close on its own.
"I think we should get out of here!" said Ryan hugging his sister.
"Whats... that?" said Gabriella out of breath pointing at something at the end of the hallway. Their was a long shadow in the windows at the front of the school.
"Its probably a tree branch." said Chad hopefully. They all stood perfectly still watching the shadow, they began to calm down when it didn't move. Then all of a sudden their was a bang on the front door. They all screamed and ran down the hallways. Troy stopped at the door leading to the library. "In here!" he called to the rest of them. They all tumbled inside. Shaking fearfully.
"Whats going to happen to us?" said Sharpay.
"Im not going to let anything happen to you." said Ryan.
"Really? I seem to remember you telling her that the murderer would kill her first." said Chad.
"Hey! She my sister and we may fight sometimes, but . . ." began Ryan.
"Look! Were all scared! I think we just need to calm down and think." said Gabriella.
"Where's Jason?" asked Tayler looking around the room. They all looked at the door.
"We have to go get him!" said Zeke who until now has been very quiet.
"Go out there? Are you nuts?" said Tayler.
"Jason is out there?" said Zeke.
"By now I bet he's not!" said Tayler. "Look its great that you want to be all heroic and save your friend, but you could get the rest of us killed."
"I hate to say it, but she's right Zeke. If we go out there to get him, we could be next." said Troy.
"Fine." he said sitting in the corner.
"How do you know were safe in here?" asked Sharpay still holding on to Ryan.
"Its better than staying in the hallway!" said Gabriella trying to be reassuring. They all sat there in silence for a while, until they heard the sound of a book drop. They all turned to the area of the library where it came from.
"What was that?" said Gabriella.
"I don't think I want to stick around to find out." said Troy opening the door. They all flooded out of the library and quickly headed down the hall and to the gym. They closed the doors and looked around the dark empty gym.
"Ok I think we should be ok in here!" said Troy. "There is nothing to hide behind here."
"This is getting crazy. We should just leave right now and go home." said Chad.
"And how do you suppose we get home? The buses are not coming back until 3 and it is 9:45 now." said Tayler looking at her watch.
"Wait wheres Sharpay?" said Ryan looking around franticlly.
"He got her!" said Gabriella about to cry. Ryan headed to the door.
"Where are you going?" said Tayler.
"I promised her that I would keep her safe, and Im not breaking that promise." he said leaving the gym.
They all looked at each other with fear. There was only five of them left now!
