Death is a terrible thing , but to most it’s a blessing in disguise.

TICK TOCK! TICK TOCK!

This clock was seriously getting on my nerves. It’s the only thing in the classroom that’s making noise. We are taking a test so that makes sense , but the noise was really irritating me. I stare blankly at my paper. The words all looked jumbled up. Nothing fit. It was all a boring story. Tests tend to do that , you know? Always facts , but no imagination. Is that why our school system is trash?

“ Mr. Katz!” The teacher yelled. I jump , startled. Our teacher , Mr. Lionheart , doesn’t yell that much. When he does , it’s usually at Ryan Katz. Ryan is a rich pretty boy who only cares about himself. He bullies a lot of innocent kids and disrespects a lot of teachers. He really gets on my nerves.

“ Mr . Lionheart , you know me…..I just love to socialize!” Ryan innocently said. I roll my eyes. This guy was seriously the dirt on my shoe. A few girls near him started to giggle. Oh look more morons.I sigh. 98% percent of the students in this classroom were snobs with no future but one in their parents’ shadow. I’m actually serious.

The other 2% were decent kids who will most likely have a decent job and a good future ahead of them. Me? I don’t know. I’m more like a spectator than a player.

Mr. Lionheart was still talking to Ryan. Ryan was given detention. Finally! That jerk deserved it. Mr. Lionheart walks away. Behind his back, Ryan makes a Lenny face at one of the girls who was giggling. " EIGHT MORE MINUTES!" Mr. Lionheart shouted.

A girl suddenly screams. Everyone turns their attention to her. "L-Look outside!" She stuttered. Everyone gets out of their seats and rushes to look outside the window. Mr. Lionheart tries to pull people away from the small window. I stay in my seat. Suddenly a boy yells, "WE’RE ALL GOING TO DIE!" My ears pick up at that. What did he say? Are we going to die? Everyone starts screaming and running to the door. I hide under my desk, confused. Should I have hid? Should I have run? I didn't know.....I just didn't know. Everyone ran out of the room, so I was left here with no one.

"Crap! I was just about to get Meghan's phone number." Someone muttered. Wait... I know that voice. It's Ryan. "Moron?" I whispered. No one answered me. After a few more minutes a face appears right in front of mine. "Oh! Another human being." Ryan said. I give him a confused look and say, "You didn't run either?" Ryan starts laughing.

I glare at him. How could he possibly be so clueless? We were all possibly going to die and h...he’s laughing?

“Good luck surviving, princess.” He said as he waves and walk out of the room. I chew on the inside of my cheek. Should I chase him? I shake my head. “Guess it’s just you and me ,desk”

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

I close my eyes and curl into a ball. Death was awaiting me. Here I come.

Everything goes black.
