Hello, blazingalex here. Umm… not much to talk about. Anyways, h-here it goes.
To recap, Alex, Chloe, Hanna, and Taylor came back to the university after Spring break, Sasha and her friends went completely nuts, Mike is hunting the group down, Chloe is four months pregnant, and a whole bunch of other shit. WARNING: Sexual themes may occur. This is rated M for a reason. I do NOT own Pokemon, or anything related in this story. Enjoy.
Chapter 2: Guess Who's Back
We entered the school, I was nervous with each step. Once we were through the doors, the police locked us in. I swallowed.
"Well, here it goes," I said. I drew the gun out from my shorts and held onto it, expecting someone to appear from around the corner. Chloe, Hanna, and Taylor followed behind me, keeping close to each other. I felt like I was in the military. Sneaking around the corridors, searching for the "enemy."
We reached the hallway that led us to our dorm room.
"Alex, be careful," Chloe whispered to me. "I don't want to lose you again."
"I'll be fine," I whispered back. "You just stay close." All four of us crept towards Sasha's dorm, where we found her door open. I leaned up against the wall next to the door, the girls following suit.
"You wait here." I slowly made my way to the adjacent door and poked my head in, the hand with the gun appearing a second later. The room was completely dark. I entered slowly, being cautious of my surroundings. Suddenly, I was blinded from the lights turning on. I regained my vision to see Sasha, a Meloetta, an Absol, and an Ivysaur all holding guns.
"Well, well, well," Sasha said. "Little ole human got a gun. Where's your crew? Are they too cowardly to come in? Huh? Are they? What about your wife? Do you think she will like it when she sees you on the wall? Third time's the charm." I stood there, my finger was itching to pull the trigger and blow her brains out. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Chyanne holding onto a whole bunch of Ghost-types. I gave her a small nod and she released them into the room. The entire room was invaded by the world beyond. Lamps were knocked over, the TV was smashed, doors were slammed, chaos. A Gastly came charging at me again, this time, I was prepared for it. I readied myself for the takeover, but it never came. I opened my eyes and saw it floating in front of my face. I turned to look at Chyanne, but she wasn't there. Instead, it was Hanna. She was holding a baseball bat. Taylor and Chloe poked out from behind her, holding their own blunt objects.
"Need a hand?" Hanna asked. She charged at the Meloetta, risking her life to defend her friends. Chloe attacked the Absol, and Taylor went after Sasha again. I turned again to face the Ivysaur, who was completely lost on what to do next. I pointed my gun at his leg and fired. BANG! He fell, holding onto his right leg in pain as blood flowed out of him. His gun fell down next to him and I picked it up.
"Thank you," I said to him evilly. I did an about-face and saw that my roommates had finished their battles, unconscious bodies scattered the floor.
"Do you think we should go tell Officer Jenny now?" Taylor asked.
"Yes, we should," Hanna said. We left the room in shambles.
As we walked down the hall, we shared our experiences in the fight.
"I-I don't know," Chloe stammered. "I-I-it just felt so wrong, yet so right."
"Welcome to the world of pain, Chloe," Hanna told her.
"Stop right there," a voice from behind us said.
"Mike," I instantly stated, before turning around to see him.
"I'm ba-ack! I came to claim Chloe as my own." He held a shotgun in his hands.
"Sorry, buddy, but I don't think she would want you after what you did to me back in December." He pumped the shotgun.
"Oh, but she will want me now, buddy boy!"
"Mike, stop!" Hanna shouted. "You don't know what you're doing!"
"I know exactly what I'm doing!" He started to twitch. "Ever since I met Chloe, I knew that we were meant to be. And I will do anything to make that possible. But you, Hanna, you are slowing me down." Everything went into slow-motion. Mike pointed the gun at Hanna and pulled the trigger. Taylor dived in the way, protecting her love. I pulled out my gun and fired at Mike.
"NO!" Hanna ran over to Taylor's body. A huge hole was in Taylor's chest. "Taylor!" Tears were streaming Hanna's and Chloe's faces. I ran over and knelt down beside them. I lowered my head and took a deep breath.
"I wasn't fast enough," I finally said after a few minutes of mourning. "It's my fault."
"Alex, it wasn't your fault," Chloe told me.
"Yes, it was. I couldn't react in time. I was too slow."
I approached the front doors and knocked. The officers guarding the entrance opened it up for me and I walked out slowly. There was a news crew waiting for me.
"Alex! Alex! Alex, can you tell us what happened in there?" I pushed them out of the way. I continued walking until I approached the fountain, and sat down on the ledge. The news wouldn't leave me alone.
"Alex, what happened? Did anyone get hurt?" I looked up at them and swallowed hard.
"One of my friends is dead. And you want me to give an interview? Just go, before I snap." They didn't listen. Officer Jenny came up and shooed them away.
"Come on, Alex," she said to me. "Chloe and Hanna need you."
"Can I have a few minutes?" I asked.
"Sure." She got up and left. I put my head into my hands.
Now I know how Chloe felt when I died, I thought to myself.
"I think she felt worse," a voice said from behind me. I turned around and saw Hanna and Chloe.
"It was all my fault," I repeated.
"You did your best, Alex," Hanna told me. "Not everyone can be saved."
"If I was faster, she would still be here." I buried my head into my hands again.
"Alex," Chloe said, putting her paw onto my shoulder. "Remember that day in October when you died in my arms? I saw Bradley coming, but I wasn't fast enough to pull you out of the way." Just then, Chloe's phone rang. "Hello? I'm fine. I know, we're miserable here. Wait, what? Okay, I'll tell them. Uh-huh. Love you, too. Bye." She hung up.
"What's going on? Hanna asked.
"The school board is thinking about closing this place down forever. They're voting tonight."
"I think that might be best, especially after what just happened," I said. Hanna and Chloe sat down on either side of me, leaned against my shoulders, and started crying again. I decided to let them be.
I am so, so sorry for that. Just…remember to review a-and PM me if you want me to add anything to the story. W-what will become of Hanna? H-how will this affect everything? W-when will C-Chloe give birth? F-find out next time. blazingalex, out.
