The water came flowing out
As I pressed the button
Of the drinking fountain.
I leaned down and took a drink,
The cold water soothing my dry throat.
My hand lifted up to my face,
To wipe away the excess water.
With a deep breath,
I walked back down the hallway
30 feet, it's empty
20 feet, I hear my classmates
10 feet, I see the door
1 foot, I feel a presence,
the hallways are no longer empty
The air shifts slightly
An electric buzz
The air becomes thick
"Everybody down!"
BANG
