________________________

'Ok, first paper, this looks quite easy' I thought to myself as the invigilator handed me the paper. It was only 8 pages long and the questions looked easy.

''You may start and good luck!'' He said

So I started filling in the paper.

Name: Lizzy Jensen

Class: Grade 10 Blue

Date: 07/10/13

Unit 1- SHAKESPEARE

1) List the first 3 things that come to mind when you hear the words 'to be or not to be'

I grabbed my pen and began to jot down the answer
'Hamlet, Indecision and-'

Suddenly everyone stood up and hurried out of the classroom, I too, grabbed my bag without packing anything as I heard the fire bell, this time it surely wasn't a drill. I rushed out of the classroom with the rest of my classmates and we all walked calmly out of the school. I met Sophia in the school yard where the whole school gathered together to be counted.

Once he left, Sophia started screaming ''We're gonna die, we're gonna die"

''No we're not Soph, calm down'' but she didn't calm down at all, it actually made her worse, oh well I tried.

Obviously that gained a few glances over to our side which I didn't really mind... Ok, maybe I did mind a little. Then it hit me, HE wasnt there, as soon as the thought of Jake popped into my mind, I heard his name being called out ''Jake, Jake Hunter has anyone seen him?'' The principle yelled across the yard, he was the only student missing.

My first instinct was to run back into the flaming school. I was on a mission... a mission to find Jake.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After five minutes of searching, I had almost given up when I heard something that sounded like banging on a door, so i followed the sound, it turns out I was right and I had actually heard the sound of banging. I walked up to the door, I opened it and out rushed a very frantic Mrs. Barnes! She hugged me and ran out just like that.

Something told me to keep searching, so I did.
Sat in the corner of one of the classrooms, I saw a curled up, petrified Jake. No wonder Mrs.Barnes ran out, the fire was on the opposite site of the big window. Between Jake and the fire, my only thought was 'what the fuck do I do'.

Without thinking I ran to Jake and pulled him out of the room. As soon as we exited, the window had exploded- thats when I realised that Jake was crying and his grip in our hug tightened, probably out of shock.

I walked him out of the school and everyone started clapping. Did Mrs. Barnes tell everyone what I had done in there? But I don't know why everyone was clapping, was it because I saved Jake?

Jake and I were then ushered to the ambulance. I was fine apart from the adrenaline rush but Jake was recovering from shock. Lets just put it this way, if I hadn't gone inside the school to look for Jake he wouldn't have moved and would be... you know, dead.
