Been Here Before

    I walked into the room filled with formally dressed people. Everything about this place seemed familiar but I couldn't place why. I stopped at a large marble table with men and women sitting around listening. I fiddled with my skirt, pulling it down, and adjusting my oversized glasses. I'm not sure why I'm here, dressed like this. Heck, I don't even know how I got here, but it all seems to make sense. At that moment a oddly familiar women stood next to me. She was messing with the items in her pocket which seemed unnormally large. I ignored that fact and turned my attention to the tall husky man that sat down at the foot of the table. I'm guessing he's the CEO or something. I listened to the crowd talk around me, muttering words. I turned to the right to see something shiny in the man's hand that was sitting and talking to some other guy. Then it hit me. I don't know how but I've been here before. I know I have. And I know what's about to happen. The man and woman on both sides of me pulled out a pistol. Without thought I snapped the gun out of the man's hand and aimed it towards the woman who now had it pointed at the CEO. In an instant two bullets were fired, from me, the other from the woman who I now recognized. My instructor. Why was she here? Everything went in slow motion. People were jumping out of their seats. Two men, Joshua and Mark, my friends ran towards the CEO to push him out of the way. I held the gun out and was running towards my instructor. Time came back to me and I pushed the now shot woman to the floor as people screamed and ran away. I grabbed her wrists as she screamed out in agony. I forcefully pushed on a spot on her neck that would knock her out and ran. Just ran. I could see Mark and Joshua coming behind me. That's when I fell.
