After seeing Cashmere in the stairwell, I headed off as soon as the bell had rang. I didn't want to be late for my class. It had taken me a little while to find the class, because it was a new teacher, and I didn't exactly know where this teacher teaches. Well, that could also be because of the new semester. Finally finding the class, I sat down at my desk. Getting my notebook and pencil case out, my phone started to ring. It was Cashmere. I had to excuse myself to answer it. I told my teacher that it was my mom.

"Cashmere? What is it?" I asked over the phone, once I had permission to leave the classroom. "Snow? I'm sorry that I ruined other people's lives. I've caused too much pain. I'll see you on the other side." She told me over the phone. I hung up, and called up Alex right away. He didn't answer right away; it had taken a while until he had answered. "I'm in the middle of class Snow. What is it?" He asked rather rudely. "It's Cashmere. I think she's going to kill herself." I told him before he hung up. He probably got the message and came right away. I headed down to the constable's office to see if he could help me find her.

"Constable Amick?" I asked, knocking on his door. "What is it, Snow?" He asked tiredly, after opening the door. "It's Cashmere. I got a phone call from her. It sounded like she was saying goodbye for the final time. I think she's going to kill herself. I have someone on the way to talk to her". I told him. "Thanks Snow. I'll have to tell the principal to put the school on lockdown." He told me before calling the principal from his office phone. "This is a lockdown. This is a lockdown. This is a lockdown." I heard Principal Webber over the P.A system. It was played constantly. "Head back to your class Snow." He tried telling me. I wasn't going anywhere.

I headed to the entrance of the school; Alex was already there. I had let him in, and we went to find Cashmere. Hopefully we weren't too late. "There should be a room that no one goes into. She might be there." He told the constable. "There's a closet that no one goes to on the high school side". The constable told us. "Then let's check". Alex had told us before we headed in the closet. Cashmere was there with her neck tied in the rope, dangling down from the light. Alex had gone to get her, and carried her to the stretcher that the constable had gotten when he called for an ambulance. He stayed by her side the entire time. Even in the back of the ambulance.
