Jodie opened her eyes in her classroom. She wasn’t surrounded by chaos she wasn’t surrounded by screaming and the building wasn’t collapsing so what had she seen? In the classroom everyone was sat just like they were in the vision? Was it a vision? She thought for a moment. Had she seen something happen before it was happening? Was this a warning to save people and why was the responsibility on her? All around the room everyone was working on the computers. Carmel and Linda were both at the table. Carmel again had gathered everyone’s attention while Linda took everyone up one by one in the same order as what Jodie had seen. Carmel was writing the exact same thing. She stopped and turned around while the group of girls where talking. “I got my eye on you.” She said again just like she had seen. The wind again was blowing through the window making Jodie nervous. As everything was playing out just has she had seen. The breeze through the window was cool and the rain came down heavy outside. The girls again had control of the music. First they put Burn on. Jodie thought about what she had seen. Burn had come on first then Slip and finally In my head. She started sweating and panicking as Alex sat down by her. “Jodie are you okay?” She asked. She couldn’t speak she watched Carmel handing work back the same people as she had seen.  “Something is wrong.” She finally said. Alex didn’t seem to believe her but Jodie continued panicking. “One of the girls is going to put love the way you lie on.” Jodie said and sure enough they did. Alex looked at her slightly worried. “I just saw something the whole college collapsed and everyone died I just saw it.” She yelled so everyone heard.  This caused chaos in the room as everyone stood up to crowd her. “She is attention seeking.” Chelsea said. Alex looked at her not sure whether to believe or not. “I am serious I saw the college collapse everyone dies all of us die different ways the radio, the songs on the radio are how we know who dies. Before everyone died they heard music.” Jodie said. She pulled away from her chair where the same chewing gum was there. “See it is all happening. My computer won’t turn on.” She said and tried it and it didn’t turn on. “The fire alarm will go off soon and a leaf is going to blow in and kill Kathryn.” Everyone froze starting to believe her as they all ran around trying to get their bags. Sure enough a leaf did come through the window as said and Kathryn slipped over on it while the light fell on her just as Jodie had seen.

Then the  alarm went off and everyone rushed out. Trying to escape the crowds were huge trying to get past the door. Jodie held on to Elle. “Stay here Elle.” She said. Jodie and Elle watched everyone fighting and trying to get out while Carmel and Linda shouted out instructions but no one was listening just like the vision. Carmel and Linda managed to open the doors for people to get through all of the class including Elle and Jodie got out until the doors had slammed shut leaving Carmel and Linda trapped.

They both ran to the other end of the building where people were coming down the stairs

Carmel arrived at the stairs her heel snapping from the tension of her running she didn’t seem to notice her heel rolled onto the step. Carmel went first and Linda behind her tripped over the heel flew down the stairs and out of the window just like the vision. Jodie was too late to save her. Linda however had gotten downstairs to the first floor and had gotten safely out of the building looking up at the second floor hoping everyone else had gotten out. Security staff had rushed in and already the ambulance and police were on their way.

Back on the 2nd floor crowds were rushing downstairs to get out of the building as fast as possible. Brittany, Chelsea and Jess were pressing the lift button and waiting. As soon as the lift came they got in. The lift numbers started frantically going up and it seemed the lift ha d got stuck.

When it started going down again the numbers flew from 4 to 1 in seconds and then all that could be heard was screaming and then silence. Jodie by now was trying to help the remaining class friends get out safely but half of them weren’t listening. She remembered Paige was in the toilets and ran across the hallway where the crowds of people were leaving. Jodie heard the song from the day dream or whatever it was and quickly kicked the door trying to open it. She shouted for people to help and a couple of boys kicked the door just in time as the water had gotten high she helped Paige out of the toilets soaking wet ad shaking just as the ceiling collapsed.

With Paige safely downstairs and quickly out the door the stairs started collapsing just as Jodie was on the 1st floor. Shaun and Niamh were stuck just like they were in her dream or premonition. Jodie tried to help niamh as the stairs crumpled the rubble was falling and the stairs were snapping as people fell down them including Niamh who went flying into the wall and then tumbled down the stairs with an ear busting crack of her neck. Jodie saw the canteen and heard the song while Shaun was hanging on to the stairs that were now split. As they dipped Jodie helped him down and then made him duck as the fire extinguisher came flying through the kitchen to and straight into the wall.

Jodie and Shaun rushed out to see Vicky hanging from the window just like Jodie had seen. By now the ambulance and police had arrived and the security guards were putting something for Vicky to jump on Vicky hung slowly letting go and tumbled down the window onto the soft cushion like mattress safely.

While Jodie, Shaun, Elle, Linda and Vicky were standing around waiting for anyone else to come out Amara and Heather were trapped under rubble and stairs on the second floor as the 3rd floor had collapsed onto them they couldn’t move at all. The lights had started going out and the fire from the kitchen had now spread wide to the corridors where Amara was trapped. Amara tried to move her from under the rubble but was trapped completely as the fire burnt through her skin until she was dead. Heather was further up the corridor she had made it to the 3rd floor before the 4th floor had crumbled trapping her then she felt the building shaking as the 4th floor tumbled down onto the 3rd floor and crashed straight onto Heather crushing her.

From outside the college started violently shaking ass the rain covered the remaining class as they hopelessly waited for anyone else to come out.  The paramedic were standing by for anyone coming out of the building hurt and the security guards had all gone back inside to try and help anyone but the fire inside made it almost impossible to enter. The crowds that had emerged from the college were standing round staring u at the college as the windows were coming out of place and smashing onto the floor below. The police had made everyone step back so Alex couldn’t be hurt at all. Jodie had moved back from the crowds as she saw how she would die and stayed away from the spot she was in last time. The college did however collapse down sending bricks flying and hitting members of the crowds knocking them over but Jodie was too far away to be hit.

The college collapsed into a pile of rubble, bricks and glass and the surviving class now knew half of their friends had died.
