A Loner's Tale

It Begins

Well I guess it's time I begin, my name's Lance and I'm not that special. I go to high-school, hang with friends, and play games no big whoop.

*alarm starts going off*

Well great another day of waking up in the morning. Anyways it's just a normal Monday morning so I'll just go through my normal routine. I climbed out of bed, got changed, and brushed my teeth. I'm always the first one awake so by the time my family wakes up I'm pretty much just waiting till I have to head out. Well I check my phone and nothings there, just a bunch of contacts that are probably asleep.

*alarm goes off*

*sigh," Guess it's time to go huh." I say out loud. I turn off my alarm and head down stairs put my shoes and leather jacket on, grab my stuff, and walk out.

Alright so I'm finally back at school, back to the never ending drama. Homeroom wasn't that bad I was able to catch some zees before announcements started. My friends tried getting me to talk with no avail as I begin spacing out. The periods fly by with nothing new or interesting happening, just the same old same old. It's finally the end of the last class of the day Biology. Now the class isn't that bad I just want to go do something entertaining. As I'm putting my stuff away my one friend walks up to my desk to come talk to me like every other day. His name is Nate he's pretty nice, never fails at starting a little conversation.

"Hey Nate how's it going?" I ask

"Oh, pretty well, I'm going to be playing some games with Lucy later."

"Oh yea, how are things going with you two, everything's going alright I hope."

"Things are going good, hey maybe you could join us, I have a room for you in the game."

"Nah, I'll just stick to my same old, plus I don't want to ruin you two's quality time together"

"Hey come on man you're not going to be ruining anything, we like it when your with us. Plus it will be fun to have all three of us play"

"Yea, yea, the bell is going to ring soon, don't you have a girl you have to go run to Nate?" I say sarcastically

*Bell Rings*

"Yea, OH CRAP, yea I'll talk to you later you better get on tonight!"

"Have fun you little love birds!" I yell as Nate run's through the door.

On the loudspeaker," Bus 8 is running late, please wait it will be here soon."

Well I guess I can take my time packing up and getting out. I just finished packing up, and head out into the deserted hallway. As I start walking down it seems more quiet than usual when I start heading out. Usually there is at least a teacher or a custodian; they always start cleaning this side of the school first. As I'm halfway down the hallway all the lights go out. The only light that usually lights up the hallway is the sun but for some reason there is no light to begin with. I start to hear some light footsteps in the dead quiet; I grab the sharpest pencil from my jacket and prepare my bag to throw it. I don't know what's going on here, but one thing's for sure, it isn't anything friendly.
