The blood curdling screams made me jump up from my desk where I had been in a deep sleep. The screams coming from the hallway were so wretched that they made me freeze in shock.

Next thing we know blood is spraying across the room, the screams were now in the classroom and in steps the mad man with the gun....To Be Continued....
