Chapter 4 - Anarchy at School

Then it was just silence, nobody moved since everyone was so caught off guard by what just happened. Then one kid screamed "WE ARE ALL GONNA DIE" and that is what set everyone else off with a flurry of panic and distress. All the while the teacher was locking up the door and closing the windows and trying to corral the kids then we heard a horrible scream that no one would've expected, it was a horrid shrill of agony and anguish. In turn the teacher gestured at everyone to get down and under the desks by the wall besides the door so whoever was out their couldn't hear us or see us. But it was terrifying all of us were in a panic of our own hoping we could go somewhere else rather than in this room. Then out of the blue one of the students ran out from the desk and screamed "I can't do this I don't wanna die, not today!" So the kid ran at the teacher's desk and grabbed the keys and sprinted for the door. But in an instant reaction the teacher in an agressive, hush scolded the kid to get back under the table. But it was to no avail this student was in too much of a panic to think rationally. But just as the teacher got up to stop this student, he already had the door open and was out in the hall. Then suddenly everyone got up and ran out the door while the teacher stood their flabbergasted along with me sitting there trying to figure out what just happened. But just as soon as everyone ran we heard all of them scream in what sounded like sheer terror and so the teacher and I broke out of our trance of trying to piece everything together. Then as we are getting up to go and close the door and try and get some of the remaining students back in class we hear. "You are Required to stay inside your classroom at all times and for any reason DO NOT LEAVE. Instead of hearing the speaker turn of with it's annoyingly loud beep afterwards all we hear is what sounds like the principal talking to someone in a very serious tone and gradually starts to get louder until we hear. "Stop where you are, I will have you arrested if you don't leave now!" "Then we hear what sounded like a sad mutter then, this as it echoes throughout the halls of our school. "Please help me I just need someone to help me just help me, help me, HeLP ME! Then… silence.."
