I was standing back in Calivar's office. Calivar was pinned to the wall. I was standing in front of her with a knife to her neck. It wasnt me though, it was a dream version of me. I walked to the desk where i had thrown my book. I snapped it shut. I looked at the title on the cover. "Where has it all gone?" the cover read. I laughed. I put it in the bag i had on me. I walked out of her office. It was like everything was happening around me. Like i was a ghost. I walked through the office lobby and out the door to the court yard. Everything was silent. Nobody was in sight. I looked down on me. I was still covered in Calivars blood and my other victims. I pulled my lighter out of my bag and started a fire in a dry pile of leaves one of the janitors had raked up. A fire quickly lit. The fire started out small but grew to lengths. I rushed into the cafeteria. No body was around. I looked for any oil or lighter fluid of some type. I found a big jug of oil and rushed back out side. I started to make a trail from pile to pile to try to start a bigger fire.
Finally all the piles were connected and the fire was set ablaze. I took the book out of my bag. And opened it backwards. I tore a lump of pages out and threw them in one pile. Then another lump in the other piles, and so on until the book was just a front and back cover. I smirked looking at the cover. I threw it in the fire. "it was a shitty book anyways" i muttered walking away.
I walked up stairs. I saw one of the teachers but she didnt see me. Her eyes wide, she ran down the corridor. I had the flammable oil making a trail from the stairs to one of the doors to a classroom. I knocked on the door. Some girl opened the door. She had red hair and looked like she was eight. "i still had a gun on me. It was in my back waistband. I took it out and shot her in the head. Suddenly now everyone could see me and i felt a slight tugging in the pit of my stomach. I knew what that meant. I version of me had just died, but not before she killed the others. "HALEY OH MY GOD!" I heard a guy yell. I looked around the room. Everyone was staring at me in terror. "oops! Im sorry sugar pops... I need to borrow a book." i said. The guy who screamed the girls name handed me his history book. I nodded to say thanks. The girls body held the door open. I took my lighter out and set the book page on fire. I put the burning page in the liquid and a wild flame broke through. The fire led all the way to the stairs.
