Player: Jasmine

Jasmine checked her phone on the way to lunch, glancing at the notifications from multiple "friends", asking her for answers to math sheets or a copy of an English essay.

These people used Jasmine as an easy way to pass. An easy out to a harsh course or bitchy teacher. She was so tired of spending everyday catering to people who only wanted her for her mind, not for her caring heart or loving nature.

Jasmine looked at the notifications and was shocked to see one referencing a school shooter threat. Apparently some kid carved a date into a stall next to a gun. The date read was for today, but Jasmine couldn't help but laugh at it.

Seriously? Another shooter threat? Is this shit funny to some people? This was the 5th one in 3 months. The other 4 never came true, so why would this one?

Jasmine sat down at a lunch table and pulled out her notebook, rereading the notes on the famous forest fire in Oregon. Jasmine had felt a strange way towards the fire, after hearing about it in History.

She somehow felt she might relate to the fire. The fire was something so beautiful, yet so destructive and temporary.

Temporary. Maybe that's why Jasmine related to it so much.

She continued writing.
