An Anonymous Truth
"What…what do you mean by games?" Lucas managed to let slide out of his mouth
"I mean how far are you willing to say Miss James here? Would Nathan give up the ability to play basketball? Would you be able to deal with not having your girlfriend around? Finally is everyone willing to participate?"
"What kind of a psycho would do this why are you doing this Tim?" Brooke whispered while tears fell out her eyes."
"She's lost so much blood! She is unconscious now I can see it. Okay lets just get this over with so we can save Haley okay everyone?" Nathan slurred as his eyes wandered from Haley to Tim.
Everyone nodded at Nathan's comment. The truth is they didn't knwo how far they really would go for one girl's life though.
"Okay we already hurt what Nathan loves so his part in my little game is practically over. Lets move on to Miss Davis. Leader of the school and girl version of Nathan what would she do if she wasn't pretty though?"
"What do you mean by that Tim?" Brooke let out as she gasped.
"I mean B. Davis that I hold here a knife. With this knife you will leave three slash marks on your perfect face. Deep enough to scar forever. One on each cheek and one on your forehead. If you refuse to do this the game is over and all other players plus yourself must watch little miss tutor girl suffer a painful death."
Shaking Brooke walked over and reached for the knife. She walked over to Lucas and whispered something in his ear.
"Will you still love me if I'm no longer pretty?" she managed to whisper.
"That fact that you would scar your face for another's life means I could never stop loving you pretty girl"
With a tear in her eye Brooke began to cut. Blood oozed from her forehead and cheeks as she cut away her beautiful skin. Tim threw her towels to wrap the marks with and motioned for her to leave.
"What? Why do you want me to leave?"
"B. Davis your part of the game is over. Now leave! However if I ever so much as here footsteps outside the door Haley and Lucas will be eliminated permanently!"
"The verdict says its judgment day for Mouth. Well now I have a special treat for you here in my bag of goodies. You see mouth here is going to be a sports announcer when he grows up well maybe it just depends on how much he really wants tutor girl to live. Would he give up his dream for one life?"
Tim pulled out a pen and motioned for Mouth to approach him.
"You want Miss James to live its simple stab yourself with this in the jugular. This may cause you to never speak again though so how bad do you want it?"
With nothing more said Mouth took the pen and did was as told. He may have been afraid but Mouth was strong. He loved Haley. Her and Luc had been some of his best friends since he was a kid. He couldn't stand it if she died just so that he could be a sports announcer. No one was shocked that Mouth did as was told. They all knew he would. Mouth was a good guy and always putting other people above himself.
"Now Marcus you really have nothing to do with any of this and never caused me pain so you get a get out of jail free card. You have 10 seconds to get out the door before I change my mind now go!"
Marcus jumped to his feet and ran out the door tears in his eyes and a fear filled heart for Haley and the others. Normally he would have stuck around but he knew that it would only lead to her death had he.
"Okay now its Lucas's turn. Luke here has a pretty bad heart, which no one knows about so he gets to pay the ultimate price. How good is his heart lets just find out."
Tim surprisingly pointed the gun towards the center of Lucas's chest. The sound of a bullet racing out of the gun and ripping through human flesh rang throughout the room. Nathan's heart sank as he realized his brother the one he treated so horribly might be gone. Another bullet was fired and Tim hit the floor with a thud. The gun was in his hand and a bullet went through his right temple. He was a gonner. He caused so much pain and tragedy in the matter of just two hours and then took his own life.
"Peyton no!" Lucas yelled as she dived in front of him and took the bullet.
"Lucas on that video when I said I lost my love I meant you, Jake wasn't the one you were. I knew I would never have you again but I couldn't live without you knowing some psycho killed you right before my eyes. So I love you Luc and always will. Be happy though Brooke made it and Haley will too she has to or all this was for nothing."
With a tear in his eye Lucas swooped down and picked up an unconscious Peyton. He motioned for Nathan to grab Hales and follow him. The boys emerged from Tree Hill High and were surrounded by police. After a few moments Peyton and Haley were loaded into seperate ambulances with the two boys at their sides. Marcus had mentioned to them on the way to the ambulance that Brooke and Mouth were already at the hospital and being treated.
I know its kind of short but its very event filled. The next chapter will show if the girls make it out alive and what their further condition will be. Hope you enjoyed my devious writing of the school shooting.
