Lunchtime

It&039;s a couple of hours later than I&039;d originally planned to take my break It would have been more sensible and probably safer to stay in the office but I&039;ve had to come outside I had another call fro worse We need bread andtheoing to wait until after work but I&039;lad I didn&039;t The super left tonight

Without thinking I find ain It&039;s still not as busy as it normally is but there are plenty of people here and

What the hell was that?

I&039;m stood in the one crazy Everyone drops to the ground and I do the saunshot But it couldn&039;t have been, could it? I slowly lift et up So in all directions and it&039;s impossible to see what&039;s happened Others likeon and where the danger is I have to et up and start to run back in the direction of the office but it&039;s difficult to get through with soall around unshot It can&039;t have been anything else

Just toin panic On the ground, right in the h to see any detail but I can see that there&039;s a quickly spreading puddle of blood around the top of the person&039;s head People start toover the corpse Maybe that&039;s it Maybe it&039;s over now Maybe that&039;s the body of the Hater lying dead on the ground and things will start to

What now? People are running past ot to get out of here before I get unshot which co in the opposite direction like frightened pigeons I have to keep s feel as heavy as lead I&039;es of the square, trying to get s and work out which way to run When I think I finally knohich way to go I take a few quick steps forward, weave around another few frightened people, and then stop dead in my tracks

The crowd has cleared ahead of me No more than ten meters in front of me now stands a police officer, ar the square,his head slowly fro his rifle again Fuck, he&039;s pointing it inat ht into his face and he stares back into ain? Do I turn and run or?

Fourth gunshot

The officer fires and Jesus Christ, I can almost feel the shot whistle past the side of my face I slowly look over round not far behindhole in its face where its cheekbone used to be Shaking, I turn and run I&039;o but it doesn&039;t et out of here What if it&039;sfor me now? Any second and I could hear the crack of the next shot and I could be doith a bullet in ot to keep ununtil

Fifth shot

Nothing Didn&039;t hit hth shots in quick succession They sounded like they calance back into the middle of the square

The armed police officer is down Another officer stands over hi body of their forle devastating thought crosses my mind Was that police officer a Hater? Christ, if there are people in the police force who are capable of this kind of cold-blooded, emotionless violence then what the hell are we supposed to do? The i to keep control? What the hell happens now?

I have to get hoe direction and run as fast as I can towards the station I have to get back to Lizzie and the kids
