I wake up to a bright light shining through the windows at me. I'm at an empty desk. This time, in a classroom. In front of me was a tall man wearing all black with a smile on the bottom half of their face. He was two feet away from me. I could see him clearly now that he is close. He had a gun in his pocket and another in his back pocket. He looked so familiar, like I have seen him before.
All of a sudden a flashback played in my mind from last year, middle school. This same guy that broke into our school last year followed me in the hallway with a gun. There were police men everywhere and I blacked out after he hit me. That's how I strained my arm?! I must've lost my memory! I remember now.
It all came back to me the second I saw him again. I remember everything from that moment. I froze in horror.
"No, not you again." The intruder stares at me for a while and then gives me a creepy smile. I backed away cautiously and spotted a scissors on the floor behind me so I slowly reached for it from behind. He starts walking towards me with a gun still in his hand. By the time he comes towards me with his fist I jam the scissors I had in my hands on the back of his neck. I knew I was still in danger but with that I ran out of the classroom leaving the intruder on the ground, in pain. My heart skipped a beat. I couldn't stop running until I got to the gymnazium doors.
I had to stop to catch my breath but it was very hard for me. I leaned my head against the door. My legs were numb, my head was pounding, pins and needles in both of my feet, and I was so tired. I looked around to make sure the guy wasn't chasing after me. No sign of him yet. But I see his shadow in the hallway next to me. I peeked in the hallway and there he was, four feet away from me, staring at me.
We make eye contact. He looked vicious, enraged. I backed away as he had an unknown object in his hands. I freaked out so I moved my legs to run again. The moment I tripped and fell over small stairs the fire alarm went off.
Before I blinked, the intruder held a match that was lit up and threw it across the floor. All I could smell was smoke and I could see a gust of fire right in front of my eyes. I felt blood dripping from my nose again. I also felt dizzy. But I didn't pass out. Instead I got up very fast and my vision was blurry.
The whole room was on fire. I knew I had to get out of the school and find a door or window. The intruder wasn't in sight. I found a door outside.
