Writer Games: Bleeps and Geeks (FULL)

Quarter Finals: Females

Alice Culpeper

I walked into the Science classroom with Jaxon, and sat down in the middle of the classroom. I was scared that when Chris came in, he wouldn't sit with me, but he did. He came in smiling, and kissed me on the cheek. For some reason I felt like he and I had been losing the closeness we once had, but it's probably all in my head.

I looked up at the board and looked at who I had been paired up with. Seraphine Martin. Honestly she didn't seem too harmless, but at the same time I felt like she could break my neck in a matter of seconds if I wasn't paying attention.

I admit, I was kind of scared to kill her(well at least try to), because I didn't want to. I didn't want to kill anyone... okay, maybe one person, but I think Chris would much rather do the honors with that one.

I just wish I could grab Chris' hand, and walk out of here without anyone else having to die. Why did it have to be like this? Why was the principal of this 'prestigious' school so into the idea of killing the students who attended? I get we've done something uncalled for, but do we really deserve to be killed for it? Couldn't we get a quick slap on the wrist with a wooden ruler and move on?

I miss being with Chris outside of this hell hole. I miss being in the less stressful environment, where no one has to die and we can focus on being normal teenagers and having fun. I miss the way he used to laugh, and talk with me until the late hours of the evening, never failing to make me laugh. I miss the old days, where his smile absolutely melted my heart, and the way he looked at me would make any girl swoon.

However now, the look in his eyes is almost that of a complete stranger, it's like I don't know him anymore. I just hope he doesn't have to die today. I don't think I could live with the thought of him not being in my life.

When we started I immediately went into a state of panic. Think Alice, think. What should you grab first? I grabbed a scalpel, skillfully holding it in my dominant hand, and I grabbed a pair of gloves to put on as well, or to strangle her with-it was still being decided.

Seraphine immediately grabbed chemicals and a bunsen burner, like Chris had done, and I could tell she was trying to follow his lead, as she unscrewed the cap to the bottle of the corrosive substance. I knocked it out of her hands before she was successful, and I quickly sliced her wrist with the scalpel. She winced in pain and grabbed her wrist.

"I'm so sorry.." I said.

"Oh please, you can do better than that." She sneered. It was as if she was giving up, but I doubt that.

"I don't want to kill you.." I said, mentally cursing after the words left my lips.

"Oh believe me, I know someone who wants to kill loverboy over there. Unfortunately, they aren't paired up for this 'activity.' Maybe one day.."

"You little-"

And with that, I stabbed her. I dug the scalpel deep into her thigh as she went to claw my arm, digging in her nails deep enough to draw blood. I cursed, and retracted the scalpel, before stabbing her again, but this time in the stomach.

She yelled out in pain, and a certain boy looked over to see her yelping. He almost lunged at me, the angered expression on his face very evident. 

I looked him in the eye as I stabbed her again in the stomach. This time, she fell to the floor gasping as she bled out.

"I'm so sorry.." I whispered, and the boy's neck was snapped by Jaxon. I have never felt so relieved in a while as his stupid little half smirk slid off his face as he fell to the floor, dead.

I looked over at Chris, who looked somewhat shocked as Seraphine laid on the floor taking her last breaths, and I covered my mouth when I saw Kobalt on the floor.
