Deception
Dylan Michlechuck knocked on the door of his sister's classroom. The teacher opened it and Dylan asked if he could come in. He walked in to find Paige, Hazel, Marco, and the rest of the class in deep discussion. "Hey Paige," He said.
"Hey, Bro, what are you doing here." Paige said smiling.
"Ah just coming to pick up my sister." Dylan said smiling.
"Well, I am sorry Mr. Michlechuck but you will have to leave now." The teacher said but the intercom cut of her last words.
"Attention, students of Degrassi," Radditch said through the intercom. "What I am fixing to tell you will shock you beyond belief. Several gunshots were heard and I am told 4 students are injured or dead. I am ordering everyone to stay inside their classrooms until further notice. This school is on lockdown."
The intercom shut off as the students started panicking. The teacher tried calming them down when Dylan spoke up. "LISTEN" he said in a deep booming voice. "I think you all need to calm down. I can assure you, you are in no danger."
The students quieted down as many people broke out in whiperings. Paige pulled Dylan aside and asked him, "You think it's Rick." She asked scared.
"Who's Rick" Dylan said.
"The guy who put Terri in the hospital last year." Paige said.
"Did the guy have long stringy black hair and glasses." Dylan asked. "I saw him when I entered the school just a few minutes ago."
"Oh no," Paige said hyperventilating, "I'm next."
"What are you talking about." Dylan said
"We all have been giving Rick hell for the last few weeks. It finally ended when somebody poured paint and feathers on him when he won that smart contest thing. I dodn't know about you but I would put all I have on Jay, Spinner, and Alex." Paige said.
Suddenly there was a hurried Knock on the door and the teacher went to the door and unlocked and opened it. A big blubbering sobbing Spinner ran into the classroom. "He ot immy" He said through big sobs.
"What" Dylan said holding Spinner by his shoulders, "What did you say."
Spinner broke down and said in a startled cry. "HE SHOT JIMMY, IF I EVER GET MY HANDS ON HIM, I'LL KILL HIM." Spinner said in rage and breaking sobs.
The class gasped in unison and Hazel started for the door. Several students grabbed her. "Let go of me, I have to see him" Hazel said and she fought with all her strength to get to the door.
"T… T… T… There's n… n… n… nothing you ca…can do." Spinner said in breaking sobs. "I took a bathroom break before Radditch came on the intercom." Spinner said calming down. "I came out of the bathroom and made my way back to class. I turned a corner when I saw Jimmy. He was on his back in a pool of blood and the top… top… part… of…hi…hi..his head was g… g… g… gone. The brains were ALL OUT ON THE FLOOR." Spinner screamed in hysterical sadness. Hazel started to fall and the students caught her. She didn't fight them anymore she just stayed there.
"I also saw who else he shot" Spinner said calmly.
"Spin," Paige said. "I think that's enough."
"No this is enough." Spin said in rage. "He also shot 3 other people, I found them running from Jimmy's body. I couldn't remember who they were."
"but I know, and I'm never going to tell." Dylan thought evilly. He walked toward Marco and sat down next to him. "You know with all this tragedy and murder, it really put's life in perspective, doesn't it."
"What are you talking about." Marco said, "One of my friends is dead and three others may be."
"Just in case we both die today, don't you want to tell eveybody about our relationship." Dylan said
"Dylan," Marco said angrily. "One of my friends is dead and if the killer is Rick, I don't really think, I'm on his hit list. I might be gay but I did nothing to the guy, so I don't think I 'll be dying today."
"oh, you might be you insufferable little prick." Dylan thought icily. "But you must still feel something for me." Dylan said desperatly.
"Dylan stop it, people are staring," Marco said.
Dylan shrugged and said "Fine, but on your own head be it." He got up and looked around at the class. "Okay if there is a killer out there, we willneed to confront him head on if he comes in here. The greeks in the Persian War made a kind of shiel so no arrows could get throught. Just in case I think we need to Barricade the desksagainst the door until the swat team shows up."
They all started to put desks in front of the door and Dylan smiled as they were all sealing their fate. He fingered the gun in his coat pocket and started to decide if he shouod shoot now or later. He looked at Marco. He was picking up some more desks. Then he decided against killing them all. He wanted some kind of recognition for the crimes he commited but he would wait until Marco got what was coming to him. The next and last person on his hit list was Marco. He waited to make his move.
