A Vision to Save a Life
Chapter 2
As that shot rang through the school, chaos insued, as every teenager was heading for either a lockable room, or an exit, every teacher and administrational figure was trying to keep everyone calm, and even though they were just as scared as everyone else, they tried to follow the lockdown protocol.
Outside Max and Liz tried to run for the school, but were stopped by a teacher, and pushed them towards one of the school buses. Max knew that Liz had gotten her vision for a reason, and so, they slipped away through the crowd, and disappeart (not literally) as they had become very good at in the last few years.
"Liz, you go and call Michael, Maria, and Kyle, and stay away from the school, I can handle it." With that, and a kiss, Max ran for the school.
As Max was leaving, Liz was pushed onto the bus. She was taking with the rest of the students outside to the school gym.
When the people taking names, Liz gave them their changed name, Elizabeth Stevens, "what were you doing on campus?"
"I came for an interview with the Principle, to be the new Science teacher, I just graduated from Northwestern, this looked like a nice town, and no sand, I grew up in the southwest."
"Welcome to Tree Hill, Ms. Stevens."
"Mrs. Stevens, actually."
"Of course." With that the man moved on to the next person, and then she saw a reporter, and Liz ducked to the opposite side of the room, no point risking exposure even if it had been four years.

Inside the school, Max was witnising chaos as the kids ran for the nearest, and then he saw a kid who fit the description that Liz had given him. But that wasn't the only reason he followed the dis, he looked nervious, he was sweating, but he didn't look scared like the other kids. So Max followed the kid into the classroom, along with a number of other children, and then, when the door was shut and locked, the lights turned off and everyone down on th floor, they all waited. Max, sat silently for a while with the teenagers, but then there was a sound outside the door, "Haley, it's me, open the door."
The other students wearn't so keen, "How do you know it's him?" A driver's licence came out from under the door. Max saw this young girl's eyes light up.
"Always," the girl said,
"And forever." The door was quickly and two other teenagers entered, but then, the boy that Max had followed jumped up, holding a gun.
