I hear a loud thud on my table which makes me jump. I look up to see Mr. Stader glaring at me with his beady eyes. I apologize as he begins to walk away back up to the front of the class. The kid next me nudges me I throw my hands in defense. After a little while of drifting off back to sleep

*BOOM*

A loud sound, almost like a bomb, echos throughout the schools halls making the whole class jump in their seats before turning next to them to whisper about what could have made that noise. Mr. Stader shushes us all and tells us to calm down. His deep voice bouncing all around the room as he heads out of the door to check into the halls and ask the other teachers what happened.

*SccccReeeech*

"Evacuate the building. This is not a drill I repeat evacuate the building this is not a drill" The loud static noise of the overhead speaker makes my ears basically bleed until Mr. Stader directs everyone to grab our things and to get out of the building. We head out the back door to the parking lot. When we get outside I pull my bookbag strap over my shoulder and look out into the street where hundreds of parents are in their cars to pick us up. How they got here? I have no idea. But considering we were just told they could have been called or the news somehow found out about it as they are here now. Whatever the reason, they were all here.

Mr. Stader is walking behind me his face full of worry and fear. When his radio goes off,

"We need to get everyone off of school grounds there has been an accident in the science lab. I repeat get everyone off the premises." Once Mr. Stader hears this his face changes from worry to panic as all the teachers are leading all of us off the premises to where all the cars are. I hear all of the parents yelling at the teachers and staff to explain whats going on.

A car honk knocks me out of my silent stance. Its my aunt Pepper in her car, in line, waving for me to get in the car. I bolted over to her car and get in. After a while of a silent car ride aunt Pepper glances at me and questions

"What is going on?" Her face fills with worry. I shrug and look out the window at the trees we pass. When we get back to her house, I head to my room and close the door. A few hours later I leaped downstairs to the sound of the news. I sit down on the brown couch and watch to see what the news is reporting. 

*On the tv*

"I'm reporting here from Brass academy, a private school, because today there was an explosion in the schools science lab that has let out a toxic gas around the area. We have inte- people that are- help with the pr-" The lady on screen starts to static out. then, a few moments later, the static goes away and the lady gets jumped by what looks to be a teenager from my school, I assume, who takes a bite out of her neck and doesn't stop eating her body. the camera man runs away but the camera drops and we see him also being eaten while he cries out.

Aunt Pepper cuts the tv off and she has a distressed look on her face. She sighs and heads into the kitchen were she splashes water on her face. I stand and walk over to her shaking with confusion and fear. Her fingers tap the edge of the sink as if she is contemplating what we just watched.

"Aunt Pepper?" I question her awaiting her response "Whats going on? What are we going to do?" I continue to question her until her face turns red with anger. I walk away and go back upstairs. I grab my bookbag and dump all my books and school stuff out. I wait till everyone goes to sleep so that I can grab things from around the house.

*That night after everyone was asleep*

I head downstairs to grab a flashlight and a knife out of the drawers. Then I head to the cabinet to grab some chips, other non cookable foods, and water out of the fridge. then I grab the key to the safe in my aunt and uncle's room from above their doorway. I sneak into their room and into their closet to use the key to open the safe. I grab two guns; a pistol and a shotgun with the silencers, then relock the safe and leave the room quietly. I grab my compass from my room and the first aid kit from the bathroom. The last thing I grab is some spare clothes. 

After I have everything shoved into my bag I rush back to my room and leave out of my window. I jump down off the roof and look towards the forest behind the house. I stand and think for a minute of where to go, I decide to head into to forest so I take the pistol, put the silencer on it, load it ammo, and heads toward the forest in the back of the house.
