I waited hours, enduring the screams of pain and sheer fear until I heard nothing but silence. Trying to focus on keeping myself together, I told myself this was just a dream. No, a nightmare. I carefully got off of the top of the toilet I was standing on and walked to the bathroom door. I moved the trash can and slowly opened the door, trying to hold in my gasp. There were bodies of students and teachers everywhere and even more blood. I closed my eyes took a deep breath and opened them again. Everything was still there, the bodies of people I'd been around for years. Making my way towards the staircase, I weaved around the dead bodies and tried to avoid the pools of blood, trying to force down the bile in my throat.
"Well, well, well, what do we have here?" someone laughed. I wasted no time, I ran as fast as I could towards the staircase and made it to the first floor. "You know, it's fun chasing you but I think I'm going to kill you now," he spoke and grabbed my arm, twisting it so I was facing him. His once-white shirt was now splattered in crimson red and his blue jeans were also stained, just like I imagine his soul. I certainly was not the first thing he chased today.
"Please I won't tell anyone, just let me go and-" He struck my cheek and pushed me against one of the already dented lockers.
"Boss said not to let anyone go," he growled and punched me in my stomach making me double over and fall to my knees.
"Please don't kill me," I begged.
"Daniel, stop," another voice ordered. The guy who was using me as a punching bag, Daniel, turned towards the other guy and laughed. "We can take her with us. Let's just go, someone's coming." He glanced behind his shoulder and Daniel turned back towards me.
"Night night," he said and punched me, this time in the head. A black curtain of darkness covered my body like a blanket and soon enough, I was out cold.
~Devina's POV~
When I woke up, I was laying on a concrete floor. I frowned and looked around. I was in a cell. My heart began racing as I tried to piece everything together. How long was I out? Where am I? What happened? Unfortunately, the possibility of this disaster being a dream quickly faded out. I rubbed my hazy eyes and slowly got up, but soon realized that that was a bad idea. My vision was clouded as I fell back down, my body completely protesting my actions. My head was pounding. I guess this is what it feels like to be knocked out. Once I regained my vision I stood back up. There was a heavy metal door on one of the walls, the only way out. I ran over to it and started desperately banging.
"Let me out!" I screamed. "Help! Someone, please help me!" I banged on the door until my hands were surely bruised and my voice was just barely a whisper. "Please."
~Unknown's POV~
"What do you mean it didn't work?" I yelled, not able to control my anger anymore.
"Alpha, I'm sorry he wasn't there. He must have fled when we started-" I threw a punch at my wall. It's either that or one of my warriors.
"Now tell me what exactly happened before I snap your neck and rip off your limbs." I calmly said once I regained my self-control.
