Marcus P.O.V
I was escorted, not back to the hospital wing, but to my normal room. They left me in my wheel chair in the middle of my room exited without saying another word. I was alone, but only for about five seconds before Shawn came rushing into my room. "Marcus!" He exclaimed out of breath, "You're okay." He got on his knees so he could hug me while I was still in my wheelchair. I smiled to myself and wrapped my arms around him trying not to hurt myself or him. The joyous embrace ended, he backed away and we locked eyes. "Can you help me up please?" I asked. Shawn looked very surprised but he reluctantly helped me to a standing position. He started shooting frantic questions at me, "What happened? Did they hurt you? Are you okay? What about that girl, is she okay?" I sat down on the bed as I answered, "I honestly have no clue. But I assume that girl is definitely in trouble. Her name is Mary I think." I sat on my bed in defeat, I had no idea where to go at that point. Should I fight, wait it out, lay low, I had no clue, until the floor began to shake. It didn't shake much but all of a sudden chaos erupted. All of the lights in the halls and the room turned into a calming blue and the voice over the intercom instructed everyone to go to their rooms. Shawn obeyed and went to his room as a steady stream of people getting to their rooms formed. Without thinking I straightened my posture on the edge of my bed like a patient soldier waiting command. I wasn't snapped out of my trace until I heard the loud slam of my door and the  loud CLANK of a huge lock being put into place. We were in lockdown.
