Martin High School

5:17pm

Oh my God. Call an ambulance!"

Everyone awoke to the sound of the janitor yelling for help. Avi's eyes peered open. His vision was blurry but clear enough to realise the state he was in. Pieces of glass pricked into his skin, while his clothes dampened with some sort of liquid that was once contained in conical flasks. Red drops of blood from his head dripped onto the floor in a slow constant beat.
Suddenly the pain kicked in. The headache, the stinging pain within he cuts on their skin. Avi groaned in pain and looked around to see everyone else.

"SOMEONE HELP! DON'T JUST FUCKING STAND THERE!" The janitor screamed with every little breath he had.

There was a huge crowd watching from outside the door while the teachers tried their best to shoo them away.

"I don't wanna die..." Scott whispered staring at the ceiling blankly.

Kirstie looked stone cold. She had no movement in her body. Avi stared at her deeply trying hard to see if she was breathing.

"Holy shit..." Avi whispered.

"Kevin! KEVIN!!" A random girl mixed raced girl came sprinting into the room managing to push through the teachers.

"Alyssa no! It's dangerous!" Her friend failed to hold her back.

Avi managed to push himself up to a sitting position. He noticed that the teacher that was with them had been badly affected too being that she was the closest to the attack. She looked really pale.

There was just one person that Avi couldn't find. Mitch. He was completely out of sight. The ambulance shortly arrived. Avi's vision was starting to fade once again. He felt light headed and fell unconscious. The journey to the hospital was a complete blur to everyone.

Avi woke up once again. This time it was to the sight of a hospital scene before him.

"Morning green eyes." A cheerful nurse walked into the room.

"Had a nice sleep?" She turned to him and grinned.

"Is everyone okay?" Avi changed the topic.

"Listen, you just get some more rest okay. It's what you need after a day like that. Especially your first day. I can only imagine how-" The nurse rambled on until Avi cut her off with yet another question.

"Is K-Kirstie.. alright?" He carefully pronounced her name not wanting to say it wrong.

"She's fine. Now get some rest." The nurse pestered Avi to go back to sleep. Suddenly there was a glass shattering scream that bounced off of every wall in the hospital. It sounded like Kirstie's.

In Kirstie's hospital room there was panic everywhere.

"GO AWAY! GO AWAY!" She kicked and screamed while her hands covered her ears.

"Ma'am calm down." The doctor tried his best to hold her still.

"SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UP!!" She yelled. There were these strange voices lingering in Kirstie's head but only she knew it.

(What the hell is wrong with her?)

(Crazy bitch.)

(Will she just shut up!)

(Urg stay still!)

These were all the voices that she could hear but she didn't understand where it was coming from. The team of doctors and nurses looked at her with fear, not knowing what could cause her so much panic.
