Overwhelming Anxiety

Complications

As the students entered the class, they easily began to settle down as the teacher explained the directions, passing out quiz slips. Time slowly began to pass as all of a sudden Anne rose her hand into the air to ask permission to use the restroom.

Anne stood up exiting the room a fog of the same old vanilla-scented perfume fumes followed after her, a cloud of her scent practically forming a trail as she left the classroom. I rose from my desk excusing myself to the bathroom for 'personal issues' as I followed after her except I took a detour towards the breaker room which in my case was where all of my exits and entrances were. As I grabbed the ladder and aligned it with the vent entrance the cold hard metal touched my light peachy skin, sending a rush of goosebumps down my entire body, Head to toe.

I pressed my hand against the side of the ladder gripping it as I climbed up it, step by step, gliding my hand along with it as I climbed to the peak of the ladder. I climbed inside of the vent grabbing the gas-mask that had been handing off a hook and put it on continuing crawling throughout the vents. I practically had the blueprint of the vent memorized so I'd be okay, although I might have had to make a couple of re-routes (u-turns). Left, Right, Left, Left, Wait no That's a right. I took 2 or 3 wrong turns before I finally got to the vent opening for the restroom. I pulled out my phone and opened up the app. See the school ventilation system is activated via a small tablet that only the janitor has access to but since it was mobile I was able to hack into the tablet and download the data onto my phone so the janitor and I are now the only ones with access to the ventilation.

I was able to close off all the other vents off except for the one in the restroom so when I turned the ventilation on the smell of chloroform spread through the vent and towards the bathroom, it wouldn't spread towards the rest of the school.

I turned the ventilation on and braced myself for what was going to happen. Once that fog came rushing towards me there would be no going back. As the fog rushed towards me I tighten the mask on my face.

I sat in the vents for a couple of minutes, looking through the vent cover. A couple of minutes passed by before I heard a small thud. I kicked the vent cover off, jumping inside the bathroom stall, landing with a small thud. I got up, dusting myself off, as I kicked the Bathroom stall door a couple of times.

Bang!Nothing.

Bang!Wouldn't budge.

BANG! The door swung open.

I walked out of the stall, towards the wash area where the unconscious body of 'poor little' Anne laid almost lifelessly.

I wanted to choke her, and kill her right there.

But If I did my ambitions would get a hold of me... And I'd do something reckless.

I crouched down next to her body, pressing my two fingers against her pale neck, searching for a pulse.
It took a couple of seconds for me to find one. It was very faint and slow.

I guess you could label this as the time in a movie where the character would say 'It's Go Time'.
