The Rains (still not sure on the title)

Short Story 2

A/N: Back again with another short story!  This is another story I had to write for ELA, and it sort of plays off the other one.  I changed all the names on here including my own, the originals were people from my actual school, so i didn't want to include them.  Anyways, hope you enjoy!!!

I was staring at the cold, gray floor of my jail cell, just like I'd been doing everyday for the past twenty years. The wall was the same drab color, as were the sheets on the bed I was sitting on. The only other colors in here were the yellowish-white of the toilet in the corner and the bright orange of my jumpsuit. I didn't even have any prison mates because I was a murderer serving jail time for killing Donald Trump. In my humble opinion, it only worked out for the best. I should be able to enjoy the country that I made better, but here i was, stuck in a cramped and lonely prison cell. Even though I had no prison mates, I was, however, allowed to go to the prison cafeteria for meals. Suddenly, the barred door of my prison cell opened, and a loudspeaker came on announcing that it was time for lunch. I stood up, stretched my back, and walked out of my cell. When I arrived at the cafeteria, I went through the lunch line (subs today!) and sat down at my usual spot in the far corner of the lunchroom. Two police immediately walked up the me. I recognized one as the guard that always walks down the hall where my cell is. The other I'd never seen here before, but he looked vaguely familiar... "Anne, this is your new guard, Gordon Brown." Then it clicked.  Gordon graduated with me back in 2021!(A/N: the year I graduate!)  In hopes that he wouldn't recognize me, I put my head down and stared at the floor. "Wait, is the Anne that assassinated Donald Trump?"  Gordon asked the guard, "Because if it is, she graduated with me. And let just say that I never expected to see her like this." "Indeed it is." the guard replied. I didn't respond, so the two stalked off, leaving me alone with only my sub sandwich for company.(A/N: actually me)

The next day, I was laying in my bed staring at the unoccupied bunk above me when Gordon called my name from the hall. I sat up and looked at him questioningly. "Did you know that there's a class reunion coming up?" He asked. "HOW WOULD I KNOW THAT I'M STUCK IN JAIL WITH NO LIFE!" I shouted. "Why are you even telling me this? It's not like I can come... unless you get me out of here of course" "Look, I'm not helping you escape from jail, and i just thought you should know about the reunion because everyone wants you to come considering you 'saved America' and all. Gordon explained. "Can't you do something so I can come to the reunion?" I questioned. "Nope." Gordon replied simply. And with that, he turned around and walked away, with his red panda following closely behind him.

I was eating breakfast the next morning when the alarm sounded. Everyone was ordered back to their prison cells immediately. I purposefully stayed behind the crowd to see if I could catch a glimpse of what was happening. What I saw took my breath away. Someone was brutally murdering a policeman. I kept watching as they murdered another, then I hurried back to my prison cell. Two guards rushed me inside and closed the door, just as two knives hit them them straight in the chest. They slumped to the floor with their wounds bleeding profusely. Just then, the person who I assumed was the murderer hurried over to me and said in a woman's voice, "I'm gonna get you out of here." She was just about to hit the button to open my jail cell when Hayden's red panda came flying out of nowhere, knocked her to the ground, and clung on to her masked face. Gordon came next. "Good boy Georgie!" He exclaimed, giving his red panda a treat. Then he leaned down, pulled Georgie off the imposter's face, and took her mask off. I couldn't believe my eyes. It was Mary Smith, another classmate of mine. Gordon looked at her for a little, and then threw her into the unoccupied jail cell next to me.
