Jennifer POV
My mom and I pulled up to Garfield and parked amongst the sea of cars. There were proud parents and classmates scattered across the parking lot.
TC ran up to the car knocking on the window like an annoying little brother. I looked up and rolled my eyes. I mouthed "Why?". He laughed and opened my car door. "I came over to escort the queen of Garfield to her throne". He put his hand out to help me out of the car."TC, move!" I joked, getting out of the car, swatting his hand away. Uncle Gambi walked over with flowers. "Congrats Jen". "Thank you Uncle Gambi" I replied, taking the flowers and smelling them. Anissa and Grace followed shortly behind.
We all walked into Garfield making small talk here and there with the students and parents. My dad met us at the entryway with a smile. I was about to break off from them and head to the student meeting area so we could walk in until an old teacher started talking to me and Anissa. "I can't believe I get to see both of the Pierce girls graduate from Garfield. It just seems like yesterday Anissa was in my class and graduating and now I get to see Jennifer." I smiled and chuckled a bit but I was distracted. I felt like spiderman at that moment. I zoned out with a strange feeling. Could be the PTSD from dealing with the Markovian war. I scanned the hall we were in and attempted to disregard the feeling. Perenna says I need to try to stay more present so I try to get out my head.
BOOM!
The ground rattled beneath us and our ears rang from what seemed to be an explosion. I screamed out "Where's dad?" He was the only one that was still walking around helping before the ceremony. Debris was in the air and there was nothing but chaos. No one knew if it was a bomb or if there were any more planted around the school. I looked around and saw classmates in a panic. The air was getting so bad we could barely breathe. I scanned to see if I could spot my 6'5 father in the crowd. "You take mom and everyone else outside, Ill go find dad" Anissa yelled breaking off into a sprint towards his office. It was nothing more than a Black ashy pit now. Of course, it wouldn't be Garfield high without something wreaking havoc.
I got my mom, Uncle Gambi, TC, and Grace out to the parking lot."Is everyone alright?"Everyone nodded as we got ready to make our next move. TC's phone started to go off repeatedly. "Damn, TC who's that?" I asked.TC looked down silencing his phone "It's nothing". Grace and I were gonna change clothes and get into our suits to go help. Uncle Gambi , TC and my mom went to Uncle Gambi's high-tech van to see if they could hack into the surveillance cameras to see what or who caused the explosion.
Khalil POV (Akashic alley)
TC was my only means to keep some kinda tabs on Jen. With this kill order, I don't want to risk being around her. I knew graduation was today so I got Philky to hack the cameras for me to watch it. I just wasn't expecting what I saw to happen. I called TC to try asking if they were alright. I didn't get a response so I started to worry. I wanted nothing more than to make sure Jennifer and her family were okay. Part of me wanted to hop in the car and drive to Freeland but I knew I'd be putting them in more danger.
Sorry, this is kinda short been a busy day. Is Khalil going to go to Freeland? Who set off the bomb? Where is Jefferson? Will Jennifer stop leading such a traumatic life?
I'll try to update pretty frequently! Thanks for reading like comments and follows are greatly appreciated! XOXO
