Rage fuelled her as she let out a low growl, her whole body vibrated as she became a ball of fury. "That GODDAMN BITCH...." Her teeth crunch as she ground them. She spun on her heels and stormed towards the door. "Tell me who and I'll deal with it..." Mr Hareena spoke as he kept stride with her, the girls were left dumbfounded. The pair strode into the hall sharing their rage. "It's the same bitch who poisoned you...." Julie growled. He snarled beside her as his fists clenched at his sides, he was out for blood. They turned to the hall where most of the dorm rooms are, the polished floor reflecting their hateful gaze. She turned to him, seeing his untamed hatred, and placed a hand on his arm. "I know you want her dead. Don't get me wrong I'm down to help hide the body. But we can't go killing people. Whatever happens in there you stay by the door. Do not let anyone in and do not let anyone out. You do not jump in to save me, you keep guard." Her voice started to break, his face had lost all hatred and now stared at her in disbelief. She was asking him to let her die.
She turned and walked straight into the room that Brenna stayed in. She was the only one there, all the other girls were probably sneaking chocolate. She took a deep breath as she walked further into the room. She hoped that she knew more self defence than Brenna. She spotted her painting stashed under Brenna's bed and scowled, this girl needed to go. Brenna did not smile or greet her superior, instead choosing to turn her back. "The soup today was nice. Mr Hareena told me how much he enjoyed it." She could not contain the amount of sarcasm flooding her words. She stood her ground as Brenna stood and faced Julie. "Are you one of those 'things'?" She practically spat the word at Julie. Julie just shook her head. She needed Brenna to make the first move. "What are you even wearing? Is that what demon whores wear?" Julie barely held her hands down as she let Brenna verbally assault her.
In that moment she heard the faint sound of heels on the wooden floor, it was the headmistress. She snarled at Brenna showing off blunt teeth. "So, you dress like a demon whore but you're actually a demon's whore. Dumb Bitch." Those were her warnings as Brenna lunged at her with a knife from the kitchen in hand. Even thought it wasn't one of the big ones it scared the shit out of Julie. She quickly grabbed the girls wrist pushing it away from herself. That was when she screamed. She screamed bloody murder till even the windows shook. That was when Mr Hareena and Headmistress Toola burst into the room, to see Brenna pinning Julie to the floor with a knife aimed at her neck. The shock of them entering made Julie's grip falter sending the knife towards her neck, time slowed. She could see it zooming towards her neck as she tried to roll out of the way. A great roar left Mr Hareena's mouth as he pulled Brenna off of Julie but he was a second too late.
The knife was embedded in her skin, blood leaking from around the wound and dripping from her shoulder to the floor. She was lucky, the blade had stuck into her left shoulder as she'd rolled away. Mr Hareena placed Brenna back on her feet and pushed her towards the door. Julie watched him as he knelt behind her, he stared at the blood as his body shook. She knew he'd have trouble with the blood and tried to distract him. "Hey, don't worry. It's just my shoulder blade. Can you show Miss Toola where my painting is?" He shook his head as he took off his neckerchief and wrapped it around the handle protruding from her back. "She already knows." His voice was gravelly and harsh as he yanked out the knife making her scream out. Her high pitched scream made everyone wince, pain enveloped half of her body. She felt tears slide down her cheeks as she glanced over her shoulder at him.
He placed the blade on the floor, staring at the wound as blood poured from it. "Hey, look at me. It's just a bit of blood. You've been around blood before remember?" She smiled at him as he looked into her eyes. Headmistress Toola knelt beside her and gasped quickly shouting orders at the girls. Julie ignored everything but him reaching her hand out to his. His hand smeared blood over her skin as he gripped her hand. The school nurse knelt behind her and began wiping the blood away with antiseptic wipes. The disinfectant burned the open wound making her call out as she gripped his hand tighter. But that burn was nothing compared to pain of the stitches piercing and pulling at her damaged skin. She saw his eyes start to go red as he watched blood still ooze from the closed wound. She squeezed his hand trying to calm him down. Heavy booted footsteps alarmed her. She wriggled to see the door, it wasn't a sight she liked.
Two big police officers stood in the door looking cranky as hell. She frowned, pissed off at their attitude. "The blonde one stabbed me, I did not provoke or attack her. Now go do your job." She practically growled at them before she moved to sit up. She felt a bit woozy but ignored it as she stood up. She wobbled as she straightened, the minimal blood left in her body drained from her head. She went to take a very wobbly step, slipped in her blood and went hurtling towards the hard floor. Strong solid arms caught her and heaved her into a warm chest. She curled into Mr Hareena's chest and mumbled a thank you. She closed her eyes for just a second, just one second.
