Thanks to everyone that reviewed.
I apologise for any mistakes in this chapter. My computer was re-booted and I've lost my Microsoft Word. But here it is anyway. I'm guessing there's only 1 chapter after this one before it ends.
Chapter 7. Waiting
A silence filled the entire classroom, not a single person daring to move. All of them waiting for a familiar boy with a gun to return. But it never happened. The halls were silent, the entire school dead. Then, it came, a man entered, one also carrying a gun.
"Come on." He carefully helped them to leave the building, the oposite direction as to where the bodies where.
Tightly, Mary's hand clung in Joey's. Her face dripped with tears. How could anyone do that to her? She was unsure what had happened to her step sister, no one dared say a thing to her. So her mind filled with worrying thoughts and images. Who knew the loss of someone she hated that much would hit her so hard?
The pain became evident on all of their faces as they entered the sunny outside of the school. All that passed through Tammi's mind was: Where's Pathetic Fallasy when you need it?
But all thoughts were soon lost as everyone was dragged into the back of amubulence's getting checked for any physical damage that could have been done.
Now sat in the back of the white vehecal, Mary watched the school doors, intent on finding out what was going on. Someone on the other side of her sat poking, proding and shining things at her. But she could not be bothered to reply to anything they asked, so she gave them simple nods. A loud noise peirced the atmoshphere and out came two men, both wearing suit's labeled 'coroner'. In their hands was a black body bag. Her eyes frequently shut for a second, hoping that it was not the body of her step sister.
"Who's that?" She asked, beginning to open her eyes again. The paramedic looked up and sighed.
"The kid with the gun..." He paused. As Mary mumbled something quietly:
"Connor. His name was Connor." She let a sad look pass her face as she watched them put the bag - and body, in the back of a car. But the boot remained unshut, waiting for something else to arrive. Returning, the two men re-entered the school building, and came back out with another body bag. This time it seemed much lighter for them to carry it. Mary burst out into tears, and felt the comforting warmth of Joey, encapsulating her in a comforting hug.
"It's going to be okay." He told her, smoothing down the back of her hair. But even he knew, that was pretty unlikely.
