Chapter 1
Alex was sitting in his math class, on the 3rd story, watching the clock nervously. *Tick. * 8:25, the time is now. He stood up and ran to the window.
"Alex, what are you doing?" His teacher said.
Alex looked her in the eye. "Get out of her now. Everyone, run!" He jumped on the windowsill, and climbed up to the roof.
"Alex!" She turned around. "Angelo!"
"Yes ma'am?"
"Go after him, I think he's gone crazy. And, you are his best friend."
"Sure thing Mrs. Carol." Angelo ran to the window and climbed up to the roof as well. "Alex, what are you doing?"
Alex looked at his watch. 8: 28… "Angelo, get out of here, it's dangerous."
"Well then, you should come as well!"
"I'll be okay! You won't! Now go!" He looked at his watch again. 8:29… "You only have 1 minute, go!"
"Why? What's going to happen?"
"Griffith… no, I can't tell you…"
"Alex what…." It was now 8:30.
"Angelo, get down!" Alex ran at her, and tackled her, just as an explosion rocked the school.
"Wha… What's happening?" They fell off the roof, since Alex tackled her too far.
"Oh no…" Alex thought. "I'd be safe, but I can't use this here, not with her watching. Wait a minute, her eyes are closed. She must be really scared… I have to risk it!"
{Alex and Angelo are falling from the roof. Two huge white wings come out of Alex's back, and wrap around them. They hit the ground, roll a couple of times, and the wings open up, reveling them both unharmed.}
"What? Alex? How are we alive?"
"Um… we landed on a soft spot…" He looked at the school. "No, he got away with it… Everyone was still in school. I told them to run! I told them! I told them!"
"Alex, what's wrong? Tell me."
{Alex lying on the ground crying. Angelo is trying to comfort him. Strange laughing noise is heard from inside the school.}
"Angelo, I… I have to go in after him!" Alex ran into the nearest door, right into the flames.
"NO, ALEX, STOP!"
{Alex runs around school for awhile, and then runs into Griffith}
"Griffith, why did you do it?"
"I believe you know why, Alex…"
{Battle begins between Alex and Griffith}
"Give it up Alex, you can't win!" {Griffith dashes forward and slices Alex once, defeating him instantly}
"Get away from him Griffith!" A voice yelled out. "Fire!"
"Wha?" Griffith escapes.
"Life! Cure!"
{Alex is fully revived, and battle ends}
"Thanks, but who are you?" Alex asked the man.
"My name is Barnardo. If we're both after Griffith, perhaps we will meet again." He runs into the flames.
"Hey wait! Oh well."
{Alex wanders around for a while more, until he sees a girl running down the hallway in tears.}
"Hey, what's wrong?"
"You mean you don't know? There's some guy with one big @$$ sword down there, killing all the survivors of the blast!"
"What! Where?"
"Cafeteria, that's why I'm going this way!" She runs off, as Alex starts to run towards the Café.
"Griffith, I'll stop you, if it's the last thing I do!
