We were down below the kitchen hiding. Except for Billy, who was still up there.

It seemed like time would never pass. Students were eagerly awaiting some news or at least a sign. Just something.

We would constantly jump whenever we'd hear a gunshot or an explosion go off.

Many questions went threw my head and all I couldn't find a answer.What was to become of me? What would happen to Billy? My parents? Everyone at the school?

No more death.

I told myself. Finally, after my whole life I had had enough.

I had enough of the screams, weapons, neglect, and such things. I wanted it to go away.For the first time in my life I had enough.

I noticed students standing up and I saw a good guy. We all started piling out.

Once I stepped out of the gate, I realized I was free. I wasn't going to die, not yet anyways.

I looked around and tried to find Billy. This was too good to be true. It was like a dream, but I felt the wind and sun.

I turned around and saw him running toward the gate. His friends embraced him and I watched silently.

They pulled away and I stood in deep thought.

I had no one except for Billy, but no guardian. I had no home, but I never truly had a home from the start.

I was going to walk away and try to find someone to help me. It felt good that I can ask for help instead of being asked.

I felt a hand grab me and pull me around. It was Billy. He was beginning to pull me closer....

A/N: sorry for this sucky chapter, but this is not the end, but only the beginning. I also realized that I've never have been taught how to write. My school never really went into detail. I had to learn from critical comments. I apologize if I do anything wrong at all. If I do, just tell me and I actually learn something. :)
