Daze And Confused

Beautiful minds

*Emily's P.O.V*

It's been 3 hours since I heard what they said, and I haven't told anyone. It was dark and we haven't heard a single shooting since. Either ways, I don't even think they remember I'm here. I could get up and leave and they wouldn't even notice. It's like I'm invisible, but that doesn't matter now. I got up, and started walking towards the door, Jack looked up at me. "Where are you going?" Everyone looked up and stared at me. God, I haven't felt this much anxiety since group therapy.

I turned around and faced Jack. 'Um, just going out..." He looked so confused. "Out? How could you go out like a time like this, we don't know what's out there." I wanted to leave so bad, I hated the attention. "Well we can't stay in here forever.. What's out there isn't much to fear." Before Jack could say a thing, Daniel had stood up. "She's right. We can't stay here forever, we have to keep going." The twins had come from behind, Halie and Kiri. They were both hand in hand as if they were born holding hands, as if their mother had told them to never let go, that only they can be trusted.

For the first time, Kiri had spoken. "If we leave now, we have more of a chance to survive. Considering most of us are wearing black anyway." Alice stood up and went to the closet and opened it, "I've been keeping camouflage clothing in here, I was planning for us to play hide and seek with these until the incident had happened. There's a pair for each of you, even the twins."

Damn. For a girl who spends her time trying to see her mom, she has ALOT of spare time.

*Kiri's P.O.V*

We all had put the clothing in the bag Alice had left behind. Everyone slowly walked outside. My throat hurts, I haven't spoke for the longest time. I mean, I talk to Halie, but that's just about it. I don't see the point to talk to other's. Actually I don't see the point to talk to anyone at all, but I can't ignore my sister. She's all I have left. I guess we have the group, but this is just temporary. I mean, hey.

*Daniel's P.O.V*

After a while, we all took a quick break. Everyone sat down all together. Suddenly, Jeremiah started laughing. "What's so funny?" Reece had asked. Ah yes, my two boys as always, very rude. Jeremiah had turned to everyone, 'Does no one else just realized what we've been doing?" Everyone was confused, we all wondered if he somehow gotten high. "Look behind you, We came back to the one place we thought we would never be harmed, Sick Minds." Zoey shook her head, "I still don't get what's so funny." Jeremiah had stood up and managed to stop laughing. "We're all out here talking about survival when we have the one girl, Alice, that knows every code to every door more then any one in the whole staff." "Yep, insanity got to him" said Halie. That was when everyone started laughing. It was nice, to hear everyone laugh again. It was great, really great.

"William, is that you?"

*William's P.O.V*

Everyone except me had jumped back. "Kyle?" It was Kyle, originally I was with him during the whole thing, I thought he had died, guess not. "William, can you explain who this is..?" said Daniel. "Before we get to explaining," said Kyle, "Guess who else made it out alive?" Before I could ask, Charlie, Robert, Suzy, and Josh had walked in from behind. I was so glad to see them, it was like being reunited with family. "OH MY GOD! I swear if any more people get added into this group I'm going on a rampage. I can't even keep track of what's going on anymore let alone people I've never seen walk out from some random bush"

Everyone started laughing again, then I explained who they were. "Alright so, did you guys barely got out?" asked Jack. Robert had pointed towards the window on the far right. "Right there, no one was there, it seems as if they all left." Zoey shook her head and then asked, "So you decided to come out here???" They all had stared at each other then back at us, "Did you guys... not see what it was like in there..?" Jeremiah had gotten up and looked at the window. "Doesn't matter what it looked like, they're all out here trying to get us. We can't afford to get caught out here. We have to go back in."

Josh had stood up, everyone surprised by his strong British accent. "Oi, how do you expect us to go back in there with all those codes that are needed?" That's when all of us stood up and Alice started walking towards the window. "Do you ever wonder if the person that runs this place, has any kids?" We all followed behind and I had asked, "yeah, but what does that have to do with anything?" She had stopped dead in her tracks before she could get a lift from Daniel into the window. "I'm her daughter, and I know more about this place then any of you could ever imagine." "SHOTS FIREDDD" Yelled Jack. Eliana turned to him, "Really?" He shrugged.

After we all had climbed through the window, We had made our way out towards the hall. Eliana had walked towards the stairs, "Follow me guys, the Library is the best place we got but first, lets all go to our rooms and get anything we need. After that the kitchen, then the library. Alright?" Everyone nodded and we all went to their Block first. After that we went to block F to get our stuff. After getting everything we needed and going to the kitchen, we made our way to the library.

"So, tell me again why the library?" said Zoey. "Before this had all happened, Jack and I were the only ones to come here, considering only 2 people went there, not much of a big threat, right?" Zoey had nodded and Eliana continued. "Well, I luckily, was smart enough to set things up for if anything ever happens." When Eliana had finished her sentence, we had reached the last and final floor, of course, where the Library was, we all had walked in." Considering only Jack and Eliana had ever been here, we were all Amazed on how big the Library had turned out to be, in fact it was more beautiful then we had ever expected. It's amazing, how something so beautiful can be all because of books. What was better about the whole thing was that, within the books it contained more beauty.

Everyone had settled down, and I stared at the books. Eliana had sat right by me and started to speak.

"It's beautiful isn't it? We're surrounded by millions of books, each and every book, contains different thought's of different people. I know there's probably a few of us that read here, and that's okay." I had turn towards Eliana. "What do you think most book readers like about books the most?" She turned to me and said,

" I think what book readers like most is, the feeling of being able to escape reality. To get a chance to leave the shitty life everyone goes through, and be able to go to Hogwarts or go to Bilbo Baggins, or maybe just to find love in a way no one can give us. My sister, before she had past away had once told me, The beauty of books is that in a way, you get closer to the author, whether its Fiction, FanFiction, Science Fiction, Poetry. Like, her favorite was autobiographies. She said her favorite thing about them was she could read about Ozzy Osbourne, Tommy Lee, Nikki Sixx, Vince Neil, or maybe even Mick Mars. But from every chapter to every page to every word, she felt closer to them, because it was like she was there listening, listening to them pouring their hearts out. She loved it so much." I smiled, then for some reason, I kissed her forehead and said, "You, Eliana, have a beautiful way of observing things, but also a beautiful mind, just like the authors of the books that are right here, within the tips of our fingers."
