Chapter 10: People have died. That's what people DO!
Hazel's POV:
My veins run cold with pure anger as she rushes outside. Katniss is running with her, thinking the same thing. The only way out of that class room is through the window, there are no tunnels that go through that room, yes there were secret tunnels plastered throughout the school. They sprint outside the school and run round to where the window leads to. They couldn't let the man get away, the man who had dark brown hair, a bit darker than Cris', but dark blue eyes that looked so sinister. Though the worrying thing was in shape and form he did look a lot like Cris, it was worrying.
As they got to the outside of the window the sight was startling. Outside the door was Cris, limp, lifeless looking and lying on the pavement, the man wasn't far from her trying to fight off Jamie and Jem at the same time. The problem was the man was winning, he had extreme speed and composure, that neither Jamie nor Jem could fight him off. In any normal circumstance they'd would've thought the man was protecting Cris but at what they had just seen Hazel very much doubted that.
When the man saw the girls running forward, he swiped both boys from under their legs and they fell to the floor. Hazel and Katniss didn't really want to fight them, they all knew that Cris was the best fighter in the school so she was the best opponent against this guy but that wasn't possible since she was out cold, they refused to believe she was dead because why would the guy still be trying to take her away if she was.
The man quickly picked Cris up and flung her over his shoulder and he started to run, once again the girls had no chance running up to him, Cris was once again the fastest but not in the school there were only two boys faster than her, Jace and Will and they were both on holiday, or so they thought. Hazel and Katniss still tried to run after the guy, when suddenly they saw a gold and black flash over the corner of their eyes.
"Jace and Will?" Katniss asked, thinking the same thoughts as Hazel. Hazel didn't really need to answer the question, it was quite obvious it was them; only they could run that fast. When they finally caught up to the man who was now lying on the ground. Will held Cris in his arms, bridal style, and Jace was standing by the man, then kicked him in the side, the man didn't respond.
The girls gaped at the Herondale boys who were standing looking worriedly at Cris. "What.." Katniss began when blue and gold eyes looked at them Jace said "We'll talk about us later, we need to get Cris to the nurse" he had worry laced in his voice but they could tell he was nervous. "What are we going to do with him?" Hazel said looking down at the guy. At that moment Jamie and Jem ran up to them, they both looked shocked and if they weren't mistaken jealous to see Cris in Will's arms.
Before any of them could speak, more people crowded where they were, the other girls and Simon appeared and pushed their way forward. Will handed Cris to Simon, which Will probably thought was the best idea since he didn't really know Jamie's and Jem's relationship, or wanted relationship, with Cris. Charlotte came into the middle and looked at the guy, anyone could see the anger and sorrow that filled her eyes.
"Okay everyone back into the school," She shouted and when no one moved she shouted even louder "Now!" and everyone hurried off when Charlotte said "Simon get Crisiant to the nurse," and Simon went off nearly running with Cris in his arms. Charlotte continued "Jace, Will drag him in to the school," They looked in surprise towards her she had never wanted anyone to drag anyone in any other circumstance "Come on" she said sternly and she walked off.
"What are you doing here?" Katniss asked Will and Jace. Clary, Katniss, Hazel, Maia, Tessa, Izzy, Tris, Jem and Jamie were still standing by the body. Will looked to Jace and said "We started school again this morning, we wanted to surprise you all tonight when they read out the casting," Everyone seemed shocked apart from Clary and Tessa. Of course they knew their boyfriends were back. "What are you two doing here?" Will asked Jem and Jamie, now all the boys, meaning Jem, Jamie, Will and Jace, were friends but since neither Will nor Jace had been in lately they probably had a lot of questions.
Tessa saved both Jem and Jamie from probable embarrassment and said "It's a long story, we'll tell you later" then gave Will a hug and a kiss and then left, Clary did the same with Jace and walked with Tessa and the other girls. The four boys were standing by the man when Hazel heard Jem say "Come on, me and Jamie will get the legs, you two grab an arm," and they all heaved the man up and started walking with the girls, the guy being draping from the boys hold.
When they got inside the school, the boys went to find Charlotte, still holding the guy, and the girls went to find Simon and Cris. They walked down the hallways to the hospital, yes the school had their own mini hospital, so there was no need to take Cris to an actual hospital. They walked in silence, none of them felt the need to speak. They were all worried about Cris, I swear everything happens to her at once, it's not fair on her Hazel thought as they entered the hospital.
The hospital was virtually empty apart from the last bed which in fact you couldn't see the bed due to the surge of activity going on by it, just over all the noise you could hear the constant beep of the heart monitor thing. Suddenly all the commotion stopped and someone said "Shit" quite loudly. They could hear the flat line of the monitor, no longer beeping. They started to rush to Cris' side they need to know what was going on but nurses had started ushering them out, saying only those qualified were aloud in now. "No, no!" Izzy nearly screamed and Tris says "We need to know, can you tell us something?" desperately. "I'm sorry, we'll have to tell you later," The old-ish woman named Amatis, looked sorrowfully to them, apologised once again then shut the door leaving Cris on the inside on her own.
They heard arguing come from the door and Simon dragged his feet out of the door. He was clearly upset but he was trying to hide it. The girls looked at each other, some (Katniss, Tris, Tessa, Maia and Hazel) were trying to hold in their emotions but everything seemed too much for Izzy and Clary: Izzy had tears running down her face and Clary had sunk down the wall, had her knees against her chest and had hid her face in her knees. Simon had opened his arms to Izzy and she was now sobbing into his blazer.
Hazel really didn't know how to feel, she just stood there, unable to move. Anger, fear, sadness, confusion. "Guys we don't know if that means what we all think, she could be fine" Tessa said obviously trying to calm Izzy and Clary but it was clearly wasn't working as a tear slid down Tessa's cheek. Hazel could feel tears well up in her own eyes and she leant down to try and calm Clary.
A few seconds later the boys practically fell in to the 'waiting room' which was just the outside of the hospital that had a few chair in it. Jace's eyes immediately fell on Clary and he came over to help Hazel try to calm Clary down, who sounded like she couldn't really breathe. Out of the corner of her eyes Hazel saw Will embrace Tessa while Jem and Jamie stood there looking quite awkward. Hazel needed to let her feelings out and Tris looked like she needed to do the same as she leant against the wall looking towards the light.
As if thinking what Hazel was thinking Tobias and Augustus came through the door, the two boys searched the corridor for them and when they met eyes with the girls, they both opened up their arms and Hazel practically fell in to Augustus' while Tris would've nearly knocked over Tobias by running into his arms but Tobias was strong and well-built while Tris was small and skinny. Hazel finally let tears soak Augustus' shirt, she always felt safe in his arms like no feeling, judgments or harm could get to her.
While Izzy, Katniss and Maia were single, they all had boys the rest of the group shipped them with: Izzy had Simon (who had their arms locked around each other, Izzy didn't look like she wanted to let go and Simon looked like he wasn't going to let her go any time soon), Katniss had Peeta, or Gale which only two of them shipped while the rest shipped her with Peeta, and Maia had Jordon but the problem was that Peeta and Jordan both had PE right now which they couldn't get out of, while Augustus, Tobias and really all of them in the waiting room had Latin or free periods which in Latin's case, Aldertree was probably not teaching saying he had shock, or anything to not teach the class.
So this left Maia and Katniss sitting on the chairs heads resting on the others, frankly everyone was upset. She's dead Hazel thought but then tried to go back and thought no, she can't be dead, if anything she can be the Doctor and fucking regenerate. And through everything this made Hazel feel a bit better. Augustus then kissed the top of her head and whispered "Cris will be fine, you know she is a fighter," although she had to agree Cris was a fighter, this might have been something even Cris can't beat. But nevertheless Hazel nodded taking a little comfort from his words.
"Can someone please tell us what's going on?" Jamie said almost desperately, his words made Hazel, Tris, Tessa and Izzy detach themselves, Katniss and Maia looked up and Clary started crying again against Jace's shoulder, Simon looked gravely at them, and Jace gave him the evils while trying to calm down Clary. They had all been through this before, twice actually, when Clary was kidnapped by her brother and the same with Tessa when her 'brother', who was actually her cousin, tried to basically sell her, because he had gambling debts as high as Mount Everest, to this freak who had wanted Tessa since before she was born.
So, yes, this group had been through a lot of problems but they had all gotten through them with only a few minor injuries but this was different Cris was dying or was dead for all they know. Izzy takes a deep breath and says in a small voice "Cris' heart monitor flat-lined,"
