*Bang*

The loud noise filled the room for a couple of seconds, then silence, a back-breaking silence. A liveless body plumps to the floor and again that back-breaking silence. Finally a muted whimper from a girl broke the silence, followed by a yelp of a boy , who runs straight to the soldier. The soldier, who shoot his father down, not even a minute ago. The girl's sitting in one corner of the dark room, her body pressing against the wall and still not believing what just happend, the boy, now in front of the soldier, tried to grab him ''You fucker! You just killed him like an animal!'' only earned a hard hit against his head by his enemy.''Stupid kid'' the soldier said, when the boy plumps unconscious to the floor, just like his father before...

I startled drenched in sweat from the nightmare, only to hit my head against the upper bed.'' Ouch! Fuck not again!'' I rubbed my forehead, the rain pattered softly against my window, while the wind whistled through the crevasses of the old building. I took a look around, waiting for my eyes to acclimatized to the darkness.

Well, as usual there were stuff and clothes covering the floor, my eyes slip to my desk, which was also covered with stuff and books 'Man, I really have to tidy up,...oh wait that doesn't matter anymore, this night, is my last night in this fucking school' I smiled at this and my view finally stopped at the clock, which hung on the wall. One o' clock and 15 minutes, 'It's time!' I thought, swung the blanket away and jumped out of my bed, but careful not to hit my head again.

I searched my clothes together and putted on my old but comfortable jeans, a green t-shirt, an, a few sizes too large , red hoddie over my skinny body and my dark Sneakers. After that I went to the mirror and looked into my own deep-blue eyes, in a face with high cheekbones, a few freckles and pale skin, an even brighter scar went from my left cheekbone down to my chin. I touched it carefully remembering the day I got it, but I pushed the dark memories away and began to bind my blond hair to a braid.

Finished I turned around and walked to my cupboard, opened it and took a little box, which was hidden under a few t-shirts, 'At least not all my clothes are lying on the floor like a carpet' I opened the box and let the little thing fell in my palm. It was the Fireflychain, which my father wore ones around his neck, the chain which now I putted on and closed the cupboard. I went across my room to my yet packed blue backpag and checked the content again. My notebook, which has only space for my drawings, a few pencils, a ration of beefjurky, a few cans, which I stole from the cafeteria, three waterbottles and a few reserveclothes. With that, I shouldered my bagpack and headed for the door.

I gently opened the door, only to face the dark corridor of the militaryschool, slipped out of the room and closed the door as gently as possible. For one moment I froze in my move, only to listen 'Was there a noise? Or am I only paranoid?'. I listened ones more and was about to go ahead, but then I felt a soft grip around my waist and a hand covering my mouth. I instinctly bit in one of the attackers finger, turned around and tackled him or maybe her to the floor. A soft chuckle came out of him 'Deep voice, totally a him, wait..., oh maan, that asshole!' ''Luke!? You dick, you scared the shit outta me!''

I hissed in a low voice looking down at him, he grinned back up to me, his deep-blue eyes glowed in the darkness.''Sorry, I didn't want to risk you to scream, but ouch! you bite hard, are you a vampire or something?''With that he rubbed his middle finger, but he was still grinning ''Stop grinning so stupid, I thought we wanted to meet each other in front of the cafeteria?'' I asked, while resting my hands on my hips, my usual stand when I want to look strict ''Well, I thought it would be saver if we meet each other in front of your room, you know just in case... .''

He looked elusive around, still sitting on the floor 'That was typical my brother, protective and always looking for my safety. I mean that's not bad you know, but I'm 15, like him, old enough to care about myself' I sighed offered him my right hand ''Come on up, Lucky Luke'' I grinned barefaced 'He hates that nickname', but he grinned back took my hand and without warning, he pulled me down to him, claimed on me and sat on my stomach ''Take it baaaack!'' he hissed with a bitchy grin on his face. ''Never!'' I grunted under his weight. ''Mhh, then I have no other choice.'' He said apologetic, he opened his mouth and let a sling of sniff down to my face 'Oh noo, not that again!' ''I take it back! I take it back, but please don't let it touch my face '' I cried out in desperate. He drew the sling of sniff back, stood up and helped me with a grin on his face up.''Disgusting!'' I muttered, still in shock ''Hey, you know I don't like to do that, but you gave me no other choice Charly.'' With that he gave me an innocent look ''You're such an asshole'' I laughted ''Yeah, but I'm your brother, sooooo you have to live with it'' he grinned.

But then footsteps, followed by a light beam behind us in the corridor interupted our little discussion and we hurried around the next corner, as quiet as we could. When we finally reached the exit of the school, we opened the door, a wave of fresh, cool nightair and rain came towards us. The smell and feeling of freedom.

I put my hood over my head, closed my eyes, took a deep breathe and smiled. Luke, who noticed my action warned ''Hey, stay focused, we're still not outside yet.'' I nodded and looked around. We faced the schoolyard, the street lights illuminated the streets with a low shine and leet the puddles on the asphalt glow. We could hear gunshoots far away 'Maybe soldiers, who found fireflies or infected? Whatever, seems like they're busy for a while!' I looked to Luke, only to notice, that he was thinking the same.

So, we sneaked along the wall of the school covered by the darkness, avoiding the cones of the light. We made our way near the fence, which orbitted the schoolyard, finally we reached the gate and looked around, always especting a noise, but the only thing we heared was the rain, which got stronger and the noises far away. Next to the gate was a small office, which always sheltered a soldier to control the gate. We peeked inside,through a window, only to see a snoring soldier, who rested his head on his hands and his elbows on a desk 'Idiot'. I glanced at Luke, who gave me grin of victorious. So the only thing we needed now was the key for the gate 'where is that fucking key' I thought ''I think one of us has to go in and look for the key, and the other one has to hold the line out here, you know, if soldiers come..'' Luke whispered ''Well, I go in and you stay out here, I'm smaller than you, so if he wakes up, I can better hide.'' I gave back. ''Alright, but be careful in there Charly, and scream, if something happens.'' He said with a worried face and looked me in the eyes.''Promise'' I whispered and went for the officedoor.

I opened it gently and slipped in, I let the door a little bit open, just in case and looked around. It looks like a bureau, with closets and desks covered with paper. On one desk, the soldier still sleeping and my view focused on the gleaming thing at his belt 'a punch of keys! How the hell am I supposed to get it' I thought febril. I looked around for something helpful 'a knife!', it was lying on a desk to my right, I sneaked there and took the knife. It seems sharp enough. I made my way back to the soldier and began carfully to cut his belt. It took a while, but I finally got through the strong leather.

I took the punch of keys and was about to leave, but I felt a hand grabbing my wrist ''You'r going anywhere kid!''. Said the uniformed man while pulling me back 'shit!shiit!SHIIT!' I thought in desperate and lashed about ''Don't fucking touch me!' But it seems useless.

*Bang*

A shoot of a gun and then silence...
