The shot startled Ephram so much that he fell backwards away from the door. He was panting heavily and still hadn't gotten used to the sound of gunshots. He crawled back to the corner of the room, which was more like a closet, and huddled up in fear. He felt like the walls were caving in on him, he felt trapped.
. . . . . . . . . .
Amy was now outside on the school grounds. Everyone was exiting to the lower field of the school, which was really more like a separate park. Amy felt such a relief, but at the same time still not satisfied. She knew that she was safe, but she couldn't find Ephram anywhere. What if something happened to him? Just as she was thinking about this, she was distracted by the sound of sirens. That's when she saw a large white vehicle with red on it. 'An ambulance,' she thought, 'Bright!' Without even saying anything to Colin she darted off towards the ambulance calling, "Bright, Bright, Oh my god! Are you okay?" She could feel that he was there even though she couldn't see him yet. She ran as fast as she could until she finally reached the ambulance.
"Bright," she said when she saw him at last.
She could tell that he was hurting, but he slowly craned his neck towards her and said in a choked up voice, "Amy, is that you?"
"Yes it's me," she said feeling tears filling in her eyes. It hurt to see her brother like this. She wished that she could have down something.
"He's going to be fine miss," said the doctor on board. "We still have some tests to run, but he didn't hit anything major and the damage isn't severe."
"Thank god," she said as she collapsed on to the bed with him and gave him a hug.
"Oh Amy," he started, "I'm so glad that you're okay," he said as he started to get teary himself. They held onto each other for a little bit longer before the doctor told Amy that they had to get to the hospital. Another wounded person had just been boarded onto the car and then they departed. Colin, who had been waiting outside after saying hi to Amy, pulled Amy close to him.
"I love you so much Amy," he said, "I don't know what I would have done if anything had happened to you."
She just looked at him and nodded, because she felt too guilty to say anything out loud to him. How would she tell him the truth? Would she ever be able to? She was once again distracted as she saw several cop cars, two fire trucks, and more ambulances pull up. Her mind once again raced with worry. Had anything happened to Ephram?
. . . . . . . . . . . .
Ephram remained in the dark corner, worrying not only about himself, but about Amy. He'd heard many shots go off, but didn't know who was the recipient of any of them. He knew that he had to have faith that Amy was okay, but he couldn't help but be concerned. He was terrified, but knew that he had to take a risk and get to her. He was not far from the door, when yet again he heard a gunshot. A mix of emotions ran through him when he heard, "It's the Police, drop your weapon, NOW!"
Was he saved?
