                    “Graduation is only a week away… We have to do something to celebrate.” My friend said as we walked down the hall.

                    “Why don’t we all go to that new restaurant?” Jason said

                    “Sure, I have been meaning to try it,” I replied as we came towards the stairs. Looking around for our other friends, I watched someone enter the school.

She is and adult with the most unique hair. Her hair is white with a red and gold streak running through it. She is wearing a beautiful dress. But oddly, she wears a big, metal, medical box on her back. She stepped into the school office. She had silenced everyone just with her beautiful look alone.

Then three rapid shots were fired. The shooter had a light machine gun with a large drum magazine. It looks like the RPK except for there is something off about them. He is wearing a black suit and tie.

There are 2 more 1 was entering the first set of doors. The man’s eyes scanned the crowd of students like a hawk looking for its prey. His eyes locked on me as he lowered his gun to fire… BLAM! Pump! BLAM! Pump! BLAM! Pump! 3 shots, the shells hit the floor in rapid succession.

The girl that had just stepped into the office had stepped out with a combat shotgun. The metal box on her back is open. The second guy was just coming in shouting as he raised his gun.

“WHO THE HELL ARE-” BLAM! Pump! He just learned what it meant to have a face full of lead. As the second guy hit the floor, the third took cover against the wall and started to aim at me. BLAM! A twin shot rang out from outside as the third guy hit the floor. Her focused expression was lost after the twin shot rang out. She walks over cautiously as the blood pools. She seems a little sad, but is hiding. She slips the combat shotgun into her metal back-pack and picked up the machine gun closest to her and slips it into her medical pack as well.

She walks over to the 2nd guy who had not moments ago had learned what it meant to have a face full of lead and now is a convenient propping the door open. She picks up his gun in her left hand making sure not to step in the pooling blood and walks through the open door and over to the guy that died from the twin shot and picks up his gun with her right hand and walks out the door and out of sight.

I pulled out my phone, reading 1:07. I quickly swipe the screen and dial 911. Ring… Ring

“911, what’s your emergency?” she asks calmly. I spoke in a stunned tone at the operator.

“We need emergency service down at Cornelius High school. Shots have been fired” Some student started crying, some looked up at me with either hope or worry, and most we still stunned.

“Sir? Can you tell me what’s happening?”

So I explained what just happened. Everyone was staring at me with shocked, confused, or hopeful expressions. Then I told the operator: “I am going to move everyone who could have seen something into the gym. That way, when the police get here, they know who all would know something” I am still stunned, but being filled with courage.

I was standing just within side the gym with my friend when the police showed up. Its five minutes later my personal shock had died away as the police started asking questions. My friends and I are just inside the doors of the gym then the police took me outside to get my story. I told them everything I told the 911 operator. Then the news van showed up along with a few parents. After finishing up telling my story to the police, I went over to the news reporter and gave them the same story I gave the police. By the time I finished, parents were showing up left and right, worried about their kids. Then I saw the ambulance. One of my few fellow students was being loaded. As I would soon the 3 shot that the first guy came through the floor. 1 shot went through his desk, the 2nd entered his right heel and traveled up his leg and stopped just before the kneecap the 3rd went through his thigh. He was putting the last of his things in his bag which was sitting to his left right next to him.
