Everything suddenly went slow-motion. Shawn dived in at the exact moment the gun went off. The bullet still found its target, but instead of his head, it shot his stomach. When Shawn looked down, he saw blood pouring out where the bullet entered. The kid that has been shot wasn't conscious, but he was alive. He grabbed the kid and went to the first place he can think of, his dorm. He heard bullets shooting past him, but they all missed. He trampled over a girl exiting the dorm room trying to get to his own.

"What the heck?! What was that for!" she replied frustrated. Blood dripped on her, and Shawn kept running until he finally reached his room. He place the kid down on his bed, and started panicking. What do I do?!?!?!?!, his head shrieked at him. Shawn opened his drawer, grabbed out bandaging, and placed the cloth on top of his wound. This will at least stop the bleeding, he thought. He took off the kids clothes until he was fully naked, because the clothes could heat him up too much.Shawn took his phone out of his backpack.

Shawn:Luke, I need u to come to my dorm rn. It is room 101. It is an emergency, and I really need you to come right now. Luke: Ok, I'm coming, but just me? Shawn: YES U. I NEED U TO COME RN. I'LL TELL U LATER. Luke: OK, OK, sheesh... He threw his phone on to his couch and thought, I hope this kid is ok... He heard a knock on the door, and expected to see Luke. Instead, he saw the girl he trampled over before.

"Hey, did I see a dead boy that you were holding?"

"Nope. Some jerk shot him in the stomach, he is unconscious right now, but he is still alive."

"Well I'm gonna help you"

"No really, you don't have to do-"

"You got me into this mess, and now you're stuck with me. By the way, my name is Allison"

"The name's Shawn, thanks for helping."

"No problem." Shawn heard a groan, and headed to his room. The kid woken up.

"What's your name?"

"Alex"

"Nice to meet you, my name is Shawn. Some jerk shot you in the stomach and I took you here."

"Ok" Alex got out of Shawn's bed and stood up. It didn't take him long to realize he was naked. Allison shrieked and rushed out the door.

"Heh, seems like she never seen a naked boy before."

"Yea...but can I put some clothes on?"

"No, don't you feel free though?" said a new voice. Shawn whirled around and saw Jacob standing in his room, followed by Luke.

"Dude, I told you not to bring anyone!"

"Sorry, he just followed me" said Luke.

"Let him be free, it's better that way so you can feel the breeze." said Jacob with a smirk.
"Oh Jacob, you go ahead and do that, let Alex do what he wants. And just shut up." Shawn said. He grabbed a pair of clothes and helped Alex put the clothes on. Jacob just stared. "Out Jacob. He's shot and he's weak, try it yourself, I'd like to see you try." Jacob left the room before he could finish. Shawn helped Alex up and put him on his couch.

"There, stay calm. We are all here to help, just call us when you need it." said Allison.

"Ok" Alex barely managed to say.

"Well, first of all, why did that guy shoot you in the first place?" Luke asked.

"If you didn't know, I'm a nerd."

"Pffft, obviously" said Jacob.

"Be nice" Allison chided.

"Anyways, I helped that guy out one day because I wanted to help him. He had horrible grades. He eventually took advantage of it and started pushing past the limit. I refused to help his homework, and that's why he shot me..."

"Oh really? Who was that guy?" Jacob asked.

"Sam" Alex said

"Well that explains a lot..." Jacob muttered.

"Yup" Luke added.

"Totally" Allison added.

"What are you guys talking about?" Shawn asked, confused.

"Oh, you don't remember?" Jacob teased.

"Just shut up Jacob" Allison muttered.

"Well, when-" Luke said. But, he was cutted off by the sound of coughing. Everyone whirled around and saw Alex coughing up blood. Shawn was the first to take action. He jerked a few towels from the door, almost making the door swing open. The blood fell on the towels, staining the white ones. Luckily I can wash them, he thought.

The others flinched a few times than started helping out. Allison couldn't bare to watch because she just stared at the wall saying, "stay calm, stay calm". Jacob & Luke started pushing down on Alex's chest until the blood and coughing finally stopped. Alex's eyes were closed, but they started to flutter.

"He passed out." Luke said with a not-so cheerful face, even a little pale.

"You can look now Allison, it's over." Jacob smirked.

"Are you sure?" Allison yelled, covering her ears.

"Yes Allison, I'm taking him to my room right now." Shawn yelled so she could hear through her ears. She turned around and took her hands down. Shawn picked Alex up from the couch and put him onto his bed.

"Didn't see that coming." Shawn said with his face still surprised.

"Sorry guys, I can't handle blood. Blood like that, not blood in general." Allison said.

"Oh my gosh, I didn't know that! Is there any other information that I need to know that I already know?" Jacob teased.

"Just shut up Jacob" Allison said while giving Jacob a playful shove. "What are we going to do since Alex needs to be watched? You might need us during the night because what if he coughs up blood again?" Allison said. She spat out blood as if she was saying it for the first time.

"I guess you guys can stay over at my dorm tonight." Shawn said.

"Great!" Jacob exclaimed and jumped onto the couch.

"Oh, I forgot, there's only enough room for 2 people. I guess you have to

sleep on the floor Jacob." Shawn smirked. Jacob just rolled his eyes at Shawn and sat up. Shawn went back into his room and stared into the mirror. Suddenly, with a quick move, his eyes flashed orange.

Wonder what happened to Jacob, Luke thought.

Sam...a new world record, for him, Jacob thought.

Alex is pretty cute, wonder what he is like, Allison thought.

Whoa! Did that just happen?! So if my eyes turn orange, I can read minds? So cool! Shawn thought.

Shawn left his room and turned on the tv. Luke got pretty intent with it and fell asleep. Oh Luke, Shawn grinned. Allison fell asleep just minutes later. Shawn stared out the window, and as he stared into the reflection, he saw Jacob in the reflection.

"You're thinking about Sam, aren't you?" Jacob asked.

"Yea...you never answered my question, who was he?" Shawn asked.

"Are you sure you want to know? Because the truth you're asking will be unexpected." Jacob warned.

"Yes," Shawn replied and held his breath.

"Sam done this with many people, and even wiped out a whole nother school."

"You don't mean..."

"Yes. He warned me that I could only tell one person this, and this person is you. Sam...Sam is a serial killer"
