On the other side of the rooripped with unexpected terror and excruciating pain He too could no longer breathe

A girl just behind and to the right of h The teacher tried to stand up and walk towards h and splutter Within no , every single person in the roo to breathe Every single person, that was, except o to get help Nuered back towards the classroorabbed hold of the nearest desk to steady irl&039;s hand slammed down on mine I stared into her face She was deathly white save for a crimson trickle of blood which spilled down her chin and onto the books on her desk Her head kept lurching back on her shoulders as she tried desperately to breathe in precious en Each uncontrolled spass than was allowed in

I wrenched my hand away and threw the door open The noise inside the roo cacophony of desperate cries which pierced right through me, but even out in the hallway there was no escape The pitiful noises which came fro confusion which rang through the entire school Froy air was filled with the terrified screams of hundreds of desperate children and adults, all of the to death

I instinctively walked down the stairs towards the round at the foot of the staircase was the body of a boy He must have been only eleven or twelve I crouched down next to him and cautiously reached out to touch him I pulled my hand away as soon as it made contact with his dead flesh It felt cold, cla ust, I pushed his shoulder and rolled him over onto his back Like the others I had seen his face was ghostly white and was smeared with blood and spittle I leant down as close as I dare and put my ear next to his htest sounds of breathing I wished that the suddenly silent world would beco It was hopeless There was nothing

I walked out into the cool Septelance at the devastated scene outside the school gates was enough for me to realise that whatever it was that had happened inside the building had happened outside too Random bodies littered the streets for as far as I could see

In seven hours since it happened I&039;ve seen no-one else

My house is cold and secure but it doesn&039;t feel safe I can&039;t stay there I have to keep looking I can&039;t be the only one left

The phones aren&039;t working

There&039;s no electricity

There&039;s nothing but static on the radio

I&039;ve never been so fucking frightened
