Day 5
It was late that night by the time I was discharged from the Hospital and Dad took me home. He was still worried and did not want me to leave, but I insisted that I was fine. In the end he gave in and I was allowed to go.
Now I laid in my bed, watching the sunlight rise on my wall, my body aching. Dad had given me the day off school and had offered to stay home from work with me. But I convinced him to go to work. It was vital to the plan that I was left alone.
I heard my father crashing around in the next room as he got ready for work. I had never realised how noisy he was before. After ten minutes I heard a door open and close then the sounds of heavy footfall as he headed down to the Kitchen.
I got up now and dressed silently. My body protested with each move, but I ignored it. I didn't care about it. I had everything worked out and nothing was going to stop me. After dressing I still had half an hour before he went to work. I guessed there was no harm in him seeing me at the breakfast table, so I left my room and ambled to the kitchen. Dad was sitting at the table sipping a coffee and reading the paper.
"Morning," I said in the cheeriest voice I could muster.
"Hey, love. I wasn't expecting you to be up so early." He said with a glance at my purple bruises.
"It's ok. I have all day to sleep if I need too." I told him and pulled out a box of breakfast cereal. I poured it into a bowl, added some milk and sat opposite him. Eating my breakfast in silence.
"I guess I better be off then," Dad told me after about fifteen minutes, in which I had finished my breakfast and was staring at the paper he was reading, blankly.
"Oh, right, Okay then. See you tonight Dad. Love you." I told him as he swept around the table and kissed my cheek.
"Love you too, take it easy today." He told me and turned towards the front door.
I watched him exit the front door and stood up. I heard his car roar to life as I made it to my bedroom door. I opened it and quickly slipped inside.
I went to my closet and pulled out a black backpack and a large leather jacket, Admittedly the jacket was too big for me, but that didn't matter. I then exited my room and walked into my fathers. It was cluttered and messy, with the bed unmade and clothes strewn across the floor. I picked my way through the maze of clothes and furniture to a small bedside cabinet. I crouched down in front of it searching for something in particular. I found it at the back and slipped it into an inside pocket of my jacket. I also removed a small metal box and put it in the same pocket. I then made my way to the door and shut it behind me.
Next I headed out a side door and into the garage and picked up a medium sized jerry can from the corner. I put it inside my pack and swung it onto my shoulders painfully. I went back inside the house and left via the front door, making sure I locked it as I left.
As my car had been totalled the previous day I had to walk to my final destination. It was a fair 20 minute walk but I was in no hurry. The sun was peaking out between the soft grey clouds and there was a slight cold breeze. I kept my eyes to the ground as I walked. My mind going over what I was about to do.
I could see the school building as I turned the corner into a side street. I quickened my pace and crossed the road and entered the school yard. Everyone was in class, which was good for me. I headed in the direction of the Biology rooms. I could see the class I would have been attending doing some sort of practical through the windows. I entered the building and walked down to the door of the classroom. I took a deep breath and entered.
"Miss Baxter?" What are you doing here?" The teacher asked me, confused. I ignored him and walked down to the middle of the room. I saw Bella sitting by herself, Edward was absent. But it wasn't him I was here for. I stared Bella in the eyes, she looked at me sneering but her composure changed as I reached inside my jacket and groped around in my inside pocket, I felt something cold hit my hand and gripped it.
Bella looked at me confused as I ripped my hand out of my jacket and pointed a shot gun at her. It took a minute for her to comprehend what I had. I could see the light click behind her eyes and she let out a piercing scream.
"GUN!" She screamed and I pulled the trigger. It hit her dead in the chest, killing her, blood sprayed out like a fountain. The classroom around me went into chaos as I pulled the trigger again, hitting another kid who fell to the ground. I continued pulling the trigger as the bullets hit kids not quick enough to escape through the door. After I had cleared that room I left and headed to the next one. Shooting at anything that moved.
I reloaded before entering the next room. Shooting out the windows and into the room, hitting the teacher with a perfect headshot. I didn't care who I killed, as long as they died.
I dropped my pack to the floor and pulled out the jerry can, just as I unscrewed the lid I heard my name called above the chaos.
"Serenity? What have you done?"
It was Edward, his face thick with rage, he was so close to me, I could feel his breath against my skin. I didn't even think about what I was doing as I threw the contents of the can all over Edward. The smell of petrol filled the air as I removed a lighter from my jacket and set him alight.
He screamed an unholy cry as the flames roared up his body. He withered within them, falling to his knees. The flames licked the wooden window frames, setting them alight as well. I turned and ran out of the building. Shooting at a few more students as I ran into the open and onto the street.
The school was now properly ablaze by the time I turned in the middle of the road. I watched the smoke billow into the air and listened to the screams of scared and confused students. Not knowing what had happened. It was over, it was finally over, No more pain.
I roared in hysterical laughter as the sirens in the distance grew louder.
THE END
