Sejm Island School

"That's quite a bruise." Alex said assessing her face."

"No thanks to your brother." Claire put her hands up to cover her eyes from the torch.

Alex then brought some cotton wool with anticeptic on it upto the redheads cut lip.

Claire pulled away a little. "Ow. My lip does belong to a human being."

"When did you become such a baby?" Alex asked laughing.

"Why don't you come closer and I'll tell you." Claire beckoned with her finger. She would show the woman in front of her how much of a baby she is.

"As much as it sounds tempting . I should go and get you an ice pack. I wouldn't want your face to swell." Alex opened the door ready to step out but turned back for one last remark. "Interesting outfit, by the way."

Claire just smiled to herself and waited until the older woman was clear of the office before making her move. She decided to head back into the hall so she could pick up a pocket knife, Chris had bought her.

"Come on Barry. I'm bored, I wanna go home." Moira moaned. She looked around the car park but couldn't see no signs of life.

She waited a few more minutes before deciding to head into the school. She checked the glove compartment for a torch but couldn't find one. She knew her dad kept one in the car somewhere because her or Polly got the job at holding it when they got a flat tire. The last place to check was the boot.

"This'll do nicely." Moira smiled picking the torch up.

She headed over to the front door and found it to be locked.

"Uh ok. Why would anyone lock the school door?" Moira asked herself.

"Do I even want to know what adults do at a costume party?" Moira ponded that question for a good few minutes. "Maybe if I just peak through one of the windows, I might not get scarred for life." She headed back to the car to wait after seeing the classes were empty. Moira was nearly beside the vehicle when she heard a scream coming from inside.

"Ok that doesn't sound good." The dark haired thought looking running back just to realise she couldn't get in. She looked around for a way in. Her eyes landed on a brick nearby. Grabbing it with both hands she threw it at the window. "Where's Natalia when you need her?"

"Wait I recognise this palce it's the technology room." Moira headed out of the classroom just in time to see a shadowy figure heading down the corridor. She slowly walked quietly behind them until they disappeared into the main hall. She waited outside hoping to catch them and find out what's going on. As if right on que the person then made an appearance.

"Got you." Moira jumped out, only to get a knife pointed at her. "Wait, don't do it, you'll regret it."

"Moira? What are you doing here?" The figure questioned.

"Claire." Moira screamed after shining the torch in the woman's face. I came to find Barry. He said he wouldn't be long. That was like an hour ago.

"Sorry," the redhead apologised. Putting her knife away.

"Are you really going to use that?" Moira pointed towards towards the knife.

"Yeah its more reliable than any person. Plus everyone has disappeared. So I was just looking fir them.

"I'm coming with you."

"No. I can't let you." Claire put a hand on the young girls shoulder.

"So how are you planning to see? Wait you probably don't need to. You can just poke everyone you see until you get the right person." Moira smiled then held the torch up. "Look, I'll be on flashlight duty only."

"Fine." Claire nodded her head in confirmation.

oOo

Rachael looked towrds the figure in the doorway. "Jill is that you?"

The figure stepped into the bit of light that was coming from the blondes torch. Which she had dropped earlier in shock.

"I thought we would never find you." Rachael walked towrds the dark haired woman.

Before she could get close enough. Jill quicky brought her leg up and kicked her right in the abdomen. Making the blonde hit the floor.

"Jill." Jessica screamed. She ran towards her friend who was sat on the floor gripping the place she had just been hit.

"Jess, please help. There's something wrong."

"Yeah I can see that. Come on we need to get you out of here first. We can help Jill later." Jessica felt someone closing in on her. Before she had time to react. The older woman lifted her leg up and kicked her straight in the face knocking her out cold.

"Don't do this Jill." Rachael pleaded. She kept her eyes on the other woman while she scrambed to her feet. She quickly grabbed the table to help her balance while she had look around for something to use.

The only problem was this woman was her friend and she didn't understand why she was doing this. She really wanted to use something to fight back but couldn't. She knocked a few chairs down to block herself from Jill, before escaping through the doorway only to bump into something.

"Raymond what are?" Rachael didn't get chance to say the rest seen as his fist collided with her face.

"We give you one simple job and you can't even do that." Raymond scolded the woman. He threw the blonde over his shoulder and headed to the back of the school. "Don't worry I will be back for the other."

oOo

Carla headed through the downstairs corridor checking every room. Finding no signs of anything suspisious. She headed to Jills classroom hoping the torch was still there that she had confiscated from a student the other day.

"It doesn't hurt if I borrow it now. Will it?" Carla thought to herself taking it from the cupboard. She then felt a cold draft going up her legs. Turning to look at the window she noticed one had been smashed.

"Oh look at that someone has created me an escape route."

"Carla," she heard someone shout.

The blonde was just about to throw herself out the window when she heard her name being called. She was then torn between getting herself out or finding the person who was shouting her.

"That is it. You owe me." Carla headed back through the classroom to find the owner of the voice. "I'm in here she called through the doorway.

"I should have known you'd be hiding in here." Ada came to a stop just in front of the blonde.

"We should stick together. Remember we're safer in numbers." Leon proudly said.

"Did you find anything?" Ada asked. Folding her arms.

"No, just a way out." Carla pointed towrds the busted window.

"I'm actually surprised you stayed. I thought you would have been on your way home by now."

"Now why would I do that." The blonde smirked.

"Come on we better get moving. Shouldn't stay in one place too long." Leon nodded for them to follow.

Ada stopped in her tracks when she felt an extra presence behind her. Turning around fast, she quickly ducked to avoid the hit to the back of her head. "Miss Valentine. What do I owe the pleasure?"

Jill never said a word, she just stared with a fiery gaze. She still wore her pirate costume with a fake sword attached to one side of her skirt and a dagger to the other side. Taking it out she held it so the blade was pointing towards Ada.

"What are you going to do with a fake dagger?"

To show the woman they weren't playing games. She quickly turned and threw it at the wall behind her.

Ada's eyes widened but only for a split second, "Leon, take Carla and go."

"I'm not leaving you." Leon demanded. "It's my job to protect people like you."

"Don't worry, I can take care of myself."

Leon grabbed Carla and headed down the hall. Once Ada knew they were safe. She could now put everything in to the fight.

Jill somersaulted backwards to put some room between her and the other woman. Once she was close enough to the wall behind her she pulled the knife back out and stood a few feet away from her opponent.

Jill's face never changed instead she turned the dagger sidewards and headed towards Ada. She started to her swirl her bladed hand to keep the woman in front of her guessing where she was going to strike. Her other hand was kept close to her chest for defence.

Jill then went in to stab the woman in the shoulder but she just managed to dodge with ease. Without hesitation she brought it back up to slice her across the chest.

Ada managed to dodge her once again. Oh so she thought anyway until she followed the woman's gaze down. There it was, she had actually made a cut in her dress showing a bit of bra.

"I knew there was a reason I decided to wear bras tonight." Ada said with a smile on her face. She knew that look on Jills face all too well. She took off the witches hat that had miraculously managed to stay on and threw it at Jill trying to get her off guard.

The woman was fast and she managed swat it out of the way fast. Ada brought one fist up to her face for distraction while she brought her other fist under to punch her in the stomach making her double over. Ada took it as her opportunity to somersault over the woman.

She now managed to get Jill in a head lock but she managed to get out of it by bringing her leg up to kick her in the head. The dark haired woman was too dazed and a little preoccupied with the woman in front she didn't feel the person behind her. She felt a sharp prick in the neck and was out like a light.

oOo

"Carla pick up." Allyson whispered to herself. Not getting an answer she threw her phone onto the passenger sides chair. The blonde then turned to check on the two kids in the back. "Just wait here. I'm going to see where Carla is."

"I'm coming." Helena told her removing her seat belt.

"So am I."

"No Deborah. Stay here." Helena put her small hand on her sisters leg.

"Your staying as well." Allyson pointed to the oldest of the two sisters. I can't take you with me."

"Why not?" Helena frowned.

"You're too young."

"I'm 14 not 5. What are you waiting for?" Helena demanded. Climbing out of the car.

Allyson couldn't help but laugh. They headed to the main entrance and found it to be locked. She cheked her pockets for her phone and realised she must have left it on the seat. Looking back to Helena who she found to be gone.

"Helena," Allyson called quietly called. Following the path round. She knew she needed to find her. How could she tell their parents and Carla that she had lost their kids.

oOo

"Once we find Barry. Your going home." Claire gave her a stern look.

"I'm helping. Why the rush to get rid of me?" Moira asked confused.

"It's not safe for you here."

"It's not safe for me to be in school. Why can't you tell Barry that."

"I'm not falling for that. I just meant tonight, there's something seroiously weird going down and I just can't put my finger on it."

"Yeah because the school isn't weird enough." Moira rolled her eyes. She shined the torch

"Stay close." Claire beckoned for her to get behind her. They climbed the stairs and headed to Alex's office. She opened the door to her scretary's office but no one was there. She had a quick peak in Alberts office and then decided to try the blondes. No sign of anyone which was funny seen as there were still medical supplies in her office.

"Who did you lose?" Moira asked. Looking at the bandages and blood filled gauzes.

"Wait. What did you just say?"

"Thought someone might have died. Check out all these medical supplies." The young girl shined her light around. She stopped at some droplets of blood, "Claire, check this out."

Both girls followed the trail of blood which led them to a large cupboard and that's where it stopped.

Claire went to the closest side and pushed the cupboard out of the way revealing an alcove, stepping inside she turned to the right and found Leon. He was holding his bloodied shoulder.

"Oh my god Leon are you ok? What happened?"

"Claire what is it?" Moira asked.

Hearing footsteps the redhead quicky jumped out of the alcove. "I know Barry is going to kill me for this but I need you to be a grown for a few minutes."

"Can you stop talking to me like I'm in kindergarten?"

"I need you to go and wait inside there with Leon. I need to go to the medical room and get some supplies. I will move the cupboard back so no one will know your in here and do not answer to anyone. Ok?"

"Got it. Claire, take this." Moira handed over the torch which the redhead took with a smile.

"Leon, Moira here is going to watch over you. I don't have to time for introductions so you'll have to do that yourselves." Claire told them. She then pushed the cupboard back in place hoping no one would know it had been moved just hoped they wouldn't notice the blood. She quickly grabbed all the bloodied gauzes and threw them into the bin.
