Don't come to school tomorrow

"Look to my coming at first light on the fifth day, look to the east"

Allison and Berny got to the ground floor and as they approached the hallways the sounds of the gunshots were louder and the blood stains on the wall became more bright.

Allison heard a little faint voice

"Help me," said a little girl who was just at the bottom of the stairs, she was holding her stomach which was bleeding terribly, her peach gown was stained and the blood dripped from her gown down the stairs.

Behind her were a bunch of other dead bodies of students, a few still trying to climb up the stairs, and pools of blood everywhere

"Jesus," said Allison as she nocked her bow

Berny put the girl in a sitting position, gave her his Handkerchief, and pressed it to her gunshot wound

"Apply pressure," he said

"We should save them," said Allison

"Allison, we won't be doing any good if we save them and more people are killed," said Berny as he stood up

"Let's go" and dragged her by the hand

Allison followed behind him as she looked at all the dead bodies of students she had interacted with some time in her 13 years of schooling and fought tears.

Suddenly Berny came to a halt at the edge of the wall

"I see them" he whispered

As they hid behind the wall leading to the hallways they saw Timothy and Annie kicking students that were lying on the floor to be sure they were dead and shooting the ones that moved an inch.

Allison was still holding back tears as she took a peek from the hideout and after seeing what both Annie and Timothy were doing, a surge of anger flared in her bones and brought out her inhaler, took one long puff then nocked her arrow once more

"Go Berny, you know the plan," she said

"yeah I do"

"Make sure you shoot to kill" he added

"Roger that," said Allison as Berny started running anticlockwise, around the hallway, to execute the strategy Andrew had called

Look-to-my-coming-at-first-light-on-the-fifth-day-look-to-the-east

The strategy was simple, we'd double-team both Annie and Timothy But neither of them can ever know they are being double-teamed until the killing blow has been landed.

The classes of Ridgemont had two hallways, one on the left and one on the right, so you could run around them

Allison was to attack from a clockwise direction, the front of the classes to either kill or bait both shooters, and Berny would attack from an Anticlockwise direction, the back of the classes to split Annie from Timothy.

Allison took a deep breath, nocked her arrows then popped out from her hiding spot from behind the wall, and let her arrow fly.

Annie heard a student say something behind her and turned swiftly to shoot the student when a shocking pain hit her shoulders sending her staggering backward, Annie looked at her shoulder to see an arrow had hit her

she screamed

Another arrow came flying but hit Timothy on his arm and he returned fire at the shooter who hid back for cover

"Allison, I know that's you come out!" he said

"You should come and drag me out!" she shouted back as she nocked another arrow
