This chapter was really fun to write and its more interesting than the other 3 chapters so I hope you like it! Disclaimer: I do not own Degrassi or the characters. Please Review :)
Everyone was now gathered in the gym and most of them were quite confused. Almost everyone looked around and saw nobody, no teachers, no one. Why had they all been called to the gym if nobody was there?
Manny saw Craig and almost immediately ran over to him, "What's going on?" she asked rather confused about the entire thing. She gave him a hug and looked back up at him kissing his lips softly.
He kissed her back and pulled away, "I haven't got the slightest clue," he answered and looked around at everyone else gathered in the large gym.
Jay, Alex and Sean thought that this whole thing was a prank and decided to leave, "Come on," Jay said and the two followed him. They went to push open the doors but to their surprise they were locked. Jay and Sean tried to bust them open but couldn't.
"Fuck," Jay said to himself quietly and leaned back against the locked doors, "Go try the other doors," he told Sean and Alex.
Emma stood up on the podium as if ready to make a big speech, "Okay people, does anyone know why we are here?" she asked looking out at everyone, somebody had to take charge. It was stupid of them all to be there but the person that had made the announcement wasn't.
Peter looked around nobody seemed to know anything about what was going on, so he spoke up, "Obviously nobody here knows why we are here so i suggest we just leave," he stated looking around, most people nodded their heads in agreement.
"Great idea, who agrees?" Emma looked out at everyone's raised hands, "When then lets go," she said looking at the doors.
Jay heard Peter's suggestion and he too spoke up, "That would work if the doors were unlocked," he smirked pushing on the doors hard but they didn't open, "Example proved," he smirked looking at Peter.
Peter glared at him, "Have you tried the other doors?" he smirked back.
Jay looked at Sean first, he shook his head meaning the doors were locked where he tried. Jay then looked at Alex, she did the same, Jay nodded, "Yeah, Mr Obvious," he smirked biting his bottom lip slightly.
Peter clenched his teeth and Darcy looked at him, "Just ignore him Peter," she said quietly taking his hand that was in the form of a fist, he loosened up and held her hand.
Manny then spoke up ignoring the two boys, "What we have to do is try to get out of here," she said looking around at all the faces, she bit her lip slightly and walked up to the podium where Emma was standing, "Somebody is probably playing a stupid prank on us or trying to scare us," she said looking at Emma.
"Exactly and since it appears that we are the only people in the school, it has to be one of us," she said not wanting to jump to conclusions or anything but she wasn't just going to let this go easily seeing as they were locked in the gym.
Everybody began talking about the matter.
"Well it's definitely not me," smirked Paige and she crossed her arms looking over at Ellie with wide eyes.
Ellie glared at her, "And so what, you think it's me?" she smirked back. If Paige was going to give her attitude she was just going to give it all back. "You just have to jump to conclusions with everything," she stated.
Paige paused before answering, "I so do not jump to conclusions," she said, "It just seems reasonable that you would play a stupid prank like this on all of us," she said angrily.
Ellie rolled her eyes, "Yeah well you just did it again, you think i would lock myself in a gym, along with everyone else," she said looking around, "And if we're jumping to conclusions it could well be...Spinner for all I know," she was trying to make a point.
Spinner looked around and saw Marco standing rather calmly, "Hey Del Rossi, you're acting pretty calm about this entire thing," he smirked jokingly.
Marco stared for a moment, "Is that an accusation?" he asked a bit surprised Spinner was accusing him.
"Maybe it is, maybe it isn't," he smirked back, he found it strange that Marco was taking it so seriously.
Marco glared more angrily this time and put both hands on his hips, "Well in that case since we are accusing, this little prank seems like something you would think up," he pointed out, "Being the great prankster you are," he said.
Before Spinner could answer Jimmy butted in, "You guys we've only been stuck in here for a few minutes and you're already accusing each other," he shook his head, disappointed with Spinner and Marco, "I thought you two would deal with this maturely but i guess i was wrong," he left them both with something to think about.
Spinner thought about what Jimmy had said, "Hey man, I'm sorry for jumping at you like that," he bit his lip slightly and looked at Marco.
Marco thought about it too, "Yeah, same here," he said to Spinner, "We can't let being stuck in here get to our heads," he said more maturely than before, they all had to deal with this together now.
Jt and Mia walked over to Craig because since everyone was getting mad at each other about this whole thing they might as well talk since that was what everyone else seemed to be doing and Craig was the only 'civil' person at the moment. "Hey," said JT.
Craig shrugged somewhat, "Hi," he said back.
"Everyone's really over reacting about this thing, don't you find?" Mia asked quietly trying to form some sort of a conversation with the two guys.
Craig nodded, "Yeah, everyone's blaming each other, it's kind of stupid, i'd say," he replied to her.
But before JT could say anything Peter walked up to the podium where Manny and Emma stood staring out at everyone, "Shut up!" he yelled and a hush fell over everyone, "Can't you see what's happening? Everyone is turning against each other over being locked in the gym! For all we know, it could've just been an accident," he said, "An-" before he could finish everyone heard a snap.
Then suddenly the stage heavy stage curtains came tumbling down along with the long metal pole that held them. Peter and Manny jumped off the podium but Emma was left behind. After things were safe they all went to check if Emma was alright.
Manny ran up and tried moving the curtains, "Emma!" she cried but there was no response.
All the guys moved up to the podium and started to help look for her, "Where is she?" spinner asked still looking around.
Jay was also helping to look for her under the heavy curtains, "I found her!" he shouted to the others and they all came running towards him. She had a cut on her forehead and it was bleeding like crazy.
Manny knelt down beside her best friend and checked to see if she could hear a pulse but she couldn't, "I think she's g-" she couldn't say that her best friend was dead, tears ran down her cheeks.
JT gathered a couple of the guys, "Let's check out how this thing fell down, " he said to them and they all went towards the ropes for the stage curtains.
Peter looked around and saw the rope for the curtains, it had snapped or who knows, it could've been cut, "You guys the rope snapped," he shouted.
Manny looked at him with red eyes from crying, "Who cares Peter, she's dead; do you still think that this is a prank?" she yelled looking at him angrily as if it was his fault.
Peter stayed quiet and looked at Darcy who was also crying, she stood up and spoke quietly, "I think what we have to do is focus on getting out of here before anything else happens," she suggested.
Paige also stood up, "Yeah, i think that if we go through the change room we could get out," she also suggested.
"Um...but don't you think we should call 911?" Mia asked looking at everyone biting her lower lip slightly.
Marco took out his cell phone and began dialing the numbers, "Damnit, I'm not getting any reception," he said trying to move around a bit to see if he could get a clear signal.
Jimmy, Spinner, Marco, Jay, Sean, JT, Peter and Craig all headed towards the guys change room, "We'll meet everyone in the hall," Craig said as he entered the change room.
Manny, Darcy, Ellie, Paige, Mia and Alex walked to the girls changeroom and nodded before going in. They were all nervous as they walked into the empty change rooms.
I hope that you enjoyed everything so far! Review Pweeeeeeeaz :P
