“Porcelain?” Sue replied with a confused tone of voice, “What are you doing here? Are you not away of what’s happening?”
“Of course we are!” Rachel exclaimed, “We just don’t know why”
“Rachelle? Why are you here? It’s eight o clock”
“We had a Glee Club meeting” Rachel said beginning to sound hysterical.
“The Glee Club” Sue said sounding menacing, “When I get hold of Shuester…”
“We don’t know where he is!” Rachel said as she began to cry.
Sue growled something but neither Kurt nor Rachel could make it out. She ran towards the school shouting ‘Get out of here!’ over her shoulder.
Rachel turned to Kurt, “What’s going on?”
“Kurt! Rachel!”
They both turned at the sound of their names.
“Finn!” Rachel cried, relieved.
Finn was running towards them, carrying someone, bridle-style, in his arms. Once Finn was close enough for the light to shine on him, Kurt recognised who it was.
“Blaine!” He shouted, releasing Rachel’s hand to run to his step-brother.
“He’s knocked out. I don’t know what they did to him.” Finn said passing Blaine to Kurt, who knelt on the ground with Blaine n his lap.
Rachel hugged Finn fiercely, as though she was never going to let him go.
“Thank you for saving him” Kurt said looking at Finn with tears in his eyes then looking down at his unconscious boyfriend.
“What happened to you?” Rachel asked noticing several bruises on Finn face.
Finn described what had happened after he’d left the choir room.
“Where’s everyone else?” He asked when he’d finished.
“We don’t know. They’d all disappeared by the time we got out.” Rachel said, on the brink of tears again. Finn held her tighter.
“I know who’s in charge” he said quietly.
Kurt head snapped up, “Who?”
“Kendra what-ever-her-surname-is. Mr Schuester’s ex-wife’s sister”
“What? Why?” Rachel looked up at her boyfriend.
“Search me. She wouldn’t tell us”
There was a loud bang from the school and the three of them looked around. They saw that the science labs had burst into flame.
“Let’s move” Finn said quickly.
“What about the others?” Kurt asked.
“My priority is you three. We can help the others better from the outside” Finn said.
Kurt stood up, pulling Blaine with him. Finn made to pick Blaine up.
“No! He’s my boyfriend. I’m going to carry him” Kurt said as he swung Blaine into his arms.
“The gun-men are all at the back, we’ll need to get out through the front” Finn said, smiling briefly at his stepbrother.
The three of them ran towards the front of the school. They ran around the last corner only to find that the flames blocked the doorway. They were trapped.
“Sanny what are we going to do?” Brittany asked as she watched the flames rise before her.
Santana didn’t know what to answer, which Brittany found even worse than a lie. Santana always knew what to say so if she was speechless – what hope did the rest of them have?
“Is everyone else okay? Should we find them?”
“Britt-Britt, how are we supposed to find them? We’ve been to the choir room and no one’s there. They could be anywhere in this school!” Santana said placing a hand on Brittany’s cheek.
“But they’re our family”
“I know Britt-Britt. I know”
The two girls looked at the flames that were slowly growing closer to them. Santana was glad the Brittany didn’t seem to realise that they were more likely to die than the others because there was no way they could get out of the flames way. Santana closed her eyes and pulled Brittany closer to her. She was going to make sure that her last moments were spent as close to the girl she loved as possible.
“Sam please wake up!” Mercedes begged.
Sam eyes remained closed.
Mercedes was tempted to sit and cry. She had no idea where anyone else was, she was alone with an unconscious boy and she didn’t know what to do to wake him up. She heard footsteps approaching her but she didn’t look up. She honestly didn’t care if she was about to be killed.
“Mercedes?”
Mercedes looked up immediately.
“Lauren?”
“It is you! I managed to lose Puckerman and Hudson and I have no freaking clue of what’s going on and – Is that Sam? Is he okay?” Lauren asked as she moved closer to the pair.
“I don’t know! He passed out in the choir room and he still hasn’t woken up!”
Lauren knelt down to Sam and grabbed his wrist.
“He has a pulse…” She said comfortingly.
“I know but - ”
Mercedes was cut off by crash that came from outside. Lauren stood up and looked through a hole in the wall.
“A truck has just hit a police car” Lauren said as she examined the scene below.
“Intentionally?”
“It’s hard to tell”
Lauren stuck her head out of the hole to have a closer look. She regretted it immediately because suddenly people were shouting and pointing at her. She pulled her head back but knew that the damage had been done.
“Mercedes…” She said calmly, “We need to move. They’re coming for us”
“Puck please! We’ve got to do something for the others!”
“Young jedi currently without a wheelchair, you need to help me here. I cannot carry you if you’re going to squirm like that” Puck said to the paralysed boy in his arms.
“But we need to help the others”
“By doing what? Artie – there’s nothing we can do other than getting help”
“But - ”
“Wheels! Mohawk!”
Puck turned and saw Sue Sylvester running towards them.
“Don’t tell me that all you Glee Kids are in the building.” she said.
“I don’t know. We were all at the meeting but I don’t know where everyone is now” Artie answered.
“Porcelain failed to mention that” She muttered under her breath.
“You’ve seen Kurt? Where did he go?” Puck asked quickly.
“I told them to leave but I left before I saw what they did”
“Have you seen anyone else?” Artie asked desperately.
“Passed Schuester on the stairs but he can take care of himself. None of your little club”
“What about - ”
Artie fell silent as he heard sirens approaching.
“Get out of here!” Sue yelled, “That’s not police”
Puck, for the first time in his life, did as he was told. Artie tighten his grip around Puck’s neck, afraid that he would fall. Puck slowed down when he reached the stairs, afraid that he would drop Artie. He walked down, one step at a time. There was a loud ominous creaking noise, which caused him to stand still. Before he could even ask what it was, the stairs collapsed beneath him.
Mike and Tina were scared. More scared then they’d ever been in their lives. They were backed against a wall, with nowhere to run, with six gun-men bearing down upon them. Tina turned to Mike.
“I love you Mike Chang”
“I love you too Tina”
Tina buried her head in Mike shoulder as he pulled her as close as possible. They both closed their eyes as the gun-men opened fire.
