The next day of school was torture. All the Grade Niners think they are so cool becoming a mini senior so they do pranks 10x worse! At school in the morning it was a war zone, you have to sprint inside and duck for cover because vinegar bombs and water gun blasts. I was sprayed a few times by the water guns. As I went to my locker everyone seniors locker was filled with exploding flour. So when I opened my door I quickly stepped out of the way of the flour bursting out of my locker. I had to clean it most of the morning and fix up my makeup and clothes.
At recess all the year 11 &12’s (seniors) were cornered onto the sports field by the niners with water guns filled with vinegar again. I was standing next to Eli on the field. I grabbed Eli’s hand and interlocked our fingers and squeezed tightly. One of the niners noticed us holding hands and pulled us out of the group.
He pointed the gun to me and screamed “Welcome me your new mini senior!”
I shut my eyes and prepared myself to be shot but just as he pulled the trigger Eli pushed me out of the way and I fell to the floor. I looked up in shock and Eli gave the niners a tackle and they started to wrestle.
I glanced at the group and then the niners and I heard the rest of the Grade Niners scream “Get the girlfriends!”
All the senior girls started to run everywhere and anywhere in the school being chased by the niners and the niners being chased by guys or angry boyfriends. Eli shouted to me to run. I stumbled up and I started to run to the door to go inside but a boy from the soccer team started pounding towards to me. He stopped me in my tracks and I stood scared. He pointed the water gun to me and so I kicked the water gun and it flew out of his hands and near Eli. He looked at me in shock and so I grunted at him and yelled “Come at me!” and the boy ran away, but I was soon being chased by one girl and two boy niners inside. Eli started shooting other grade niners with the water gun I kicked to him.
Inside it was chaos and no classes were on today because soon the whole school was being overthrown by grade niners.
In my science class science lab I was pinned down by a grade niner onto the lab desk. I squirmed to try and break free but I couldn’t Imogen came running in and started hitting the boy but he slapped her across the face and she fell to the ground. Emma came running in with a water gun and started shooting him but he grabbed the gun and hit her in the stomach and she fell on top of Imogen. I didn’t know where Eli was so I thought I was going to be totalled, until Adam came into the room. Adam grabbed the boy and pinned him to the wall and punched him in the stomach twice and hit him in the face once. When he let go of him the boy fell to the floor unconscious.
Adam commented “I’ve always wanted to hit someone in school.”
I replied “One life achievement completed.”
Adam and I started to shake Imogen and Emma to wake up. Once they did we all ran out of the room and ran to cafeteria. We all were taking cover underneath a table. I noticed Eli fighting some kid. The niner was big and tall, way bigger than Eli. Eli was about to be crushed but I ran across the room to them two. I swung my arm back and threw my fist to the big kid’s face. I knocked a tooth out of his mouth and he fell to the floor knocked out cold.
I stood and looked at the boy in shock and said to Eli “Omg, I have never hurt someone that bad before.”
Eli answered me saying “Who cares lets hide!”
I looked back to the table and Adam, Imogen and Emma had left already. Eli pulled me along holding my hand tightly. As we dodged water blasts and punches I noticed that the school smelt like crap and everyone looked beaten up like they were in a brutal war.
Eli took me up to the roof and blocked the door behind us. We continued running along the roof and stopped at a bench and I collapsed into Eli’s arms. His body was so warm. I love his hugs.
He stroked my hair again and said to me “You’re very brave to do what you have done today.”
I looked up to him and said “Well I’m a girl with surprises. My hands kind if hurt still from the punch but my foot doesn’t hurt.”
Eli then held my hand and kissed it. I looked into Eli’s eyes and said “Well now it’s better, and I’ve never felt any safer with you by my side.”
He smiled and leant down to me and kissed me.
