Marionette exhaled. "Well then" she said. "That was fun." Ella added. "Yeah. Thank god we didn't get in trouble." Harley said as she sat on a table. Then, Marionette felt a buzz in her pocket. She reached in and took her phone out. "Who texted you?" Ella asked. Marionette looked at her phone. "No one. It was a safety message." She replied, nervously. "What's it say?" Harley asked. Marionette's eyes went a little wide. "Someone just got shot a few blocks away..." She replied. Ella gasped. "Oh dang son." Harley commented. Marionette put her phone back in her pocket. "We should get out of her-" She was about to say here until she was cut off by someone bursting through the doors. "EVERYONE PUT YOUR HANDS UP OR YOU'LL GET A BULLET IN YOU!!" A man yelled as three others came in, all armed with guns. Everyone screamed and put their hands up. Some fell to the ground while others cried. Thoughts raced through Marionette's mind. 'Why are they robbing a school?!' Was one of them. Then she noticed they couldn't see her. She was at the back, being blocked by everyone else. "We need to get out of here now." She whispered. "Yeah. There's a back door to the school." Harley whispered. "We need to run." Ella joined in. "Okay. Three, two, one!" Marionette whisper yelled. The three ran down the hallway behind them, undetected. "Ohgodohgodohmyfuckinggod!!" Ella said with obvious nervousness. They burst through the back door. Marionette stopped dead in her tracks and stared at the sky. "Marionette, come on!" Harley said. Marionette just stared at the now purple moon. "Ugh, my god." Harley groaned as she grabbed Marionette's hand and they continued to run.
