49 students remaining
Amy Henwood (female student number one) scanned the woodland around her. No one appeared to be there but every noise startled her. Finding a tree stump to rest on she opened her pack. Her weapon was a needle similar to the one Mr Henderson killed Megan with. Amy knew that she wouldn't be able to do anything with a needle. She wasn't prepared to kill her friends and besides, how could she throw a needle like Mr Henderson? A twig snapped behind her.
"No! Don't hurt me!" Amy shrieked and threw herself backwards away from her enemy. The racoon cocked its head and scampered away. "You need to be more careful Amy" Amy turned to see Adam Howard (male student number four) standing with an evil smile. "Screaming like that will only attract other people. Unwanted people. Scary people."
"Well I'm glad you found me. Look what I got as my weapon" Amy showed Adam her needle "what did you get?"
"I got these and compared to yours they kick ass" Adam unfurled his nun-chucks with a smile. "Or to rephrase that, I kick your ass" with that Adam yelled like a demon and ran toward Amy, nun-chucks raised. He swung at her head but Amy foresaw his move and ducked. Gripping her needle Amy aimed for the only spot she could, his exposed left eye. With a scream of pain Adam fell backwards. The needle was embedded in his left eye causing it to ooze blood and another jelly like substance. Amy jumped back as Adam swung the nun-chucks with all his remaining might. There was a sharp crack and a spurt of blood as Amy's nose shattered. Disregarding her pack Amy turned and stumbled away into the wood leaving Adam to moan and search her bag with his one remaining good eye.
Amy stopped by a fallen tree and took stock of what had happened. Adam, who she thought was her friend, had attacked her for no reason. She had lost her weapon, not that it was any good, and all her food and water. She also had no map so she couldn't tell where she was or where the forbidden zones were, not that there were any yet. Amy thought back to the briefing. There would still be some people in the school but she needed to remember what she had been told…
"Right then" Mr Henderson continued "the island is big so, to prevent people not being able to find each other or stay in the same place forever, designated parts of the island will become forbidden at certain times. If you are caught in a forbidden zone your secondary charge will go off. You will then have 15 seconds to make it out of the zone before your primary charge blows. Also note, I would advise against this as the secondary charge will just give you a slow and painful death unless you are treated immediately which, lets face it, isn't going to happen here…"
Amy decided that her best option was to find someone she could trust and then get her stuff back from Adam. If he died in the process well, he did break her nose…
