Wendy's POV.

　　The hall was tense. Legs moved in various directions. I struggled with my respiration as tears rolled uncontrollably from my eyes. I am stuck. Not that I'm the victim. Nope. I wasn't but the view before me broke my heart. Almost half of the school was in the same position. Tears began to fall from people's eyes. The scene isn't something anyone wished for... For Christ's sake, it's the first day of resumption! As I couldn't bear it anymore, my legs gave up, making me fall on the ground. As my loosely bond hair fell down my back, my eyes traveled down the hall again, to that very scene. Tears, once again began to stream out of my eyes, like athletes competing against one another on a track field.

　　"Babe--" She smiled as blood oozed out of her breastless chest. Her lips became pale and her face also.

　　"Ke-Kelly- you really c-can't d-do this t-to m-me" Raphael whispered into her ear. He held Kellandra in his trembling hands and his eyes were bloodshot red.

　　"Raph, I'm with y-" before she could complete this sentence, she chocked, spilling blood over his body.

　　"Someone ring the nearest hospital " Raphael screamed as hot tears rolled down his eyes. Raphael Cruz is the head of the School's football team and as you've probably guessed, he was the school's fuck boy. He used to drink and smoke and womanizing was his number one priority but all this before she came. She changed him. She had this effect on him and that was just the beginning of a new Raphael. She is Kellandra Phillipa Bernardo. She's the reason he stopped doing all the bad stuffs he used to do. Now his entire existence is in question as his life flashes before his very own eyes. "I made the call, Mr Cruz and they are here" the Principal's voice rang at the ends of the hall way. Nurses began to rush in. A particular nurse came in with a stretcher and another with a first aid box. They headed towards Raphael and Kelly. "Here, let me help" a hand stretched out to reach mine, Adrian. My Twin.

　　After he helped me up, I tried searching for Kelly and Raphael.

　　"They're at the school's clinic. They want to remove the bullet before getting her to the hospital." he answered my unasked question.

　　"To your Classes everyone" Miss Campbell's voice rang through the speakers that hung lazily on the walls.

　　HOLDEN'S POV.

　　"100 joules"

　　"Shoot"

　　As the defibrillators made contact with her bare chest, she fell back on the bed and the heart rate monitor began to give crazy sounds.

　　Raphael was uneasy and his heart was thumping loud, such that people could hear it

　　"Why?" he hit my chest hard.

　　"Why. Would. Anyone. Want. To. Hurt. My. Kellandra. Why. Why? " he hit my chest as he said each word. "WHY??? " he screamed.

　　"I'm afraid we would have to send you out, Mr Raphael." he doctor announced.

　　"Do you know how it feels to see your woman, the very one you promised an happy ending, dying? " he whispered loudly.

　　"Raph--"

　　"Do you?" he screamed once again.

　　"Last warning Mr Cruz. I'll have no other option but to throw you out."

　　The heart rate machine began to make some kinda loud sounds. And all I could see was a long and endless dash.

　　Kellandra is dead!
