When 5th period came around, the smile was still etched deeply into my mind. I rested my head an my hand and glanced at Merida. She gave me a smile and continued to look at the board.

"Yes, Elsa?" I put my hand down. "May I use the restroom?" The teacher nodded and I got up and left the class. I walked down the empty hall and everything slammed into me. The man, I knew who he was. I know. I can't believe he came back. After what he did...

I got to the bathroom, did my buisness, washed my hands, and looked my self in the mirror. Damn. My hair was frizzy, my face pale. I looked like shit. I sighed and opened the door when the intercom came on.

"Attention, attention!" A panicned voice came through. I stopped in my tracks. "This is a code red, a code red! This is not a drill!" My blood went cold as I heard the locks on doors slam into place and windows being covered. Oh god. Oh god. I sprinted down the hall to my room and banged on the door. "Help!" I cried, banging on the window. I could see everyone huddled in the back. I saw Merida and once we made eye contact, she jumped up and started for the door.

I slumped in relief as she came, but my body went rigid in terror as someone grabbed her from behind, not letting her get to the door. "No! No, please!" I started banging on the window again. I saw my teacher come to the door and look at me with pain in her eyes. Then I saw her reach up, above the window... Oh my god.

"No! Don't, please!" I cried as tears rushed down my face. She wasnt going to help me. I saw tears in her eyes as the curtain fell down, covering the window, and I knew.

I was alone. Completely and utterly alone.

Jacks Pov

My blood went ice as we all huddled in the back of the class room. I crouched by the book case when I heard the intercom come on again. "Hello, students." The voice was deep and raspy, as if he hadnt talked for a long time. "I see you've all went into class rooms to hide." He chuckled. "But these security cameras are really helpful. I see 4 of you already out of the classroom." He laughed, and it was hoarse and creepy. "Im coming for you first, blondie." The intercom went off, and I shot to my feet. Blondie. Oh god. My first thought went to Elsa, and I pulled my phone out.

"Jack, close the curtain." I sent the text and went to the door. I was about to close it when I heard footsteps. Running. I looked out, right. Nothing. Left... Oh shit.

Elsa was sprinting down the hall, a terrified look on her face as she looked around helplessly. She turned her head and tripped, skidding across the floor and landing a few feet outside of ours. Without thinking, a opened the door and rushed out. Some people yelled behind me, but I ignored them. I bent besides her, scooped her in my arms, brought her inside, and closed the door and locking it. I bent and carefully placed her on the ground as someone closed the curtain. She thrashed widly, as if she didnt know what was happening, and sobbed.

I hushed her and moved her hair away from her face. It was tear streaked and pale. It broke my heart. I placed my hands on her face. "Elsa, baby, look at me." I whispered. She gripped my wrists and slowly opened her eyes. "Jack?" She said so quietly I almost didnt hear it. I smiled the best I could and nodded. She threw her arms around my neck and hugged me. I fell back on my ass and put my arms around her waist.

"What the hell were you thinking?!?!?!" I looked up to find Josh looking down at me. "You could've killed us all!" I stood, grabbing Elsas hand and bringing her up with me. I was about to say something when Zoe, Joshs girlfriend, cut me off.

"He was just trying to save her." She said and crossed her arms. I grinned. "Would you do that if it were me?" She asked. Josh paled and placed his hand on his neck. He nodded. "Yeah. Sorry, man." He sat on a desk. I have Zoe a smile and mouthed "Thank you." She smiled and nodded, going over to stand by her boyfriend.

I turned back to my girlfriend, and smiled. I thanked the lords or whatever everywhere, that my baby was alright. My girl was alive.

Elsas Pov

I smiled at Jack and hugged him. I was so lucky to have him. I wouldnt know what to do without him. "Thank you." I said. He kissed my head. "For what?" I looked up at him, my chin resting on his chest. "For everything." He kissed my nose and I giggled. "No problem, Snowflake." I grinned, but my happiness was replaced by fear as we heard footsteps coming down the hall.

"Shh..." We all stayed quiet. Something was going to happen. Foreboding was clear everywhere.

Something was going to happen.

"Jack..." I gripped his shirt and he shushed me. "It'll be okay, Els, it-" He was cut off my a shout, a window breaking, and a man standing in the door way holding a gun.

"Everyone be quiet, or I start shooting."
