Hostage Situation

Authors Note: I choose to write about a hostage situation in a school. I picked this because me and my writing circle group thought it would it would be interesting 

It was dark, quit, and creepy as our school was in lock down mode. We recently heard that a crazy group of men we raiding the school and were going to take hostages. My whole Language Arts class was huddled up against the wall, as we could hear some people walking down the hallway outside our classroom door.

Then with a “Bang” we heard gun fire. We didn’t do anything we just sat there as we were hearing gun fire. Then right before the door (to enter the room) went down Sam yelled “they’re shooting the hinges!” “Take cover!" Me and my friends ran and took cover as the men were coming. The group was coming in fast so Ryan suggested that we jump out the window on to the platform below.

    Within two seconds the group of men was getting close so we all lunged for the window and landed outside on the platform. We checked to see if everyone was okay, but Brandon wasn’t looking so good with a bullet wound in his right arm. We new our business wasn’t, because they were probably going to take the Language Arts class hostage. We all got down to the ground level and went back in the school through the cafeteria doors.

    Sam said though if we try to save our language arts class were going to need some weapons. We all went to Gym to look for metal bars and stuff like that. When we were looking we saw a huge vault opened a quarter way. Alex went over to the door and opened it up. The first thing that came out of Sam's mouth was "I get the ACR". Everyone chose a gun expect for Ryan who choose a riot shield and a Desert Eagle.

    Before we left though we made sure we had plan, and I new it would work. As we closed in on the classroom we heard people talking in room. With the noises there had to be 6 men in the room. On my nod Alex and Brandon threw flash grenades and smoke grenades in the room. Sam and Ryan put up C4 on the wall in between the two doors and breached it.

    I ran into the room with nobody seeing me and was picking off the group of men behind Mrs. Mundt desk, 1,2,3 people group dead. Then Ryan ran with his Riot Shield and knocked one of the men out. The last guy was trying to cock his gun so he could start killing the hostages, but he had no chance because Sam came in and got him. After we had everyone secure the guy Ryan knocked out got back up, but Sam just turned around and punched him.

Just as Everyone was getting up from hiding from the tables from the fire fight we had, a SWAT team came in. Every person from the SWAT team looked at us like we were crazy, since we just raided a room that was being held hostage and none of the hostages got killed. Since that day on 4 of my friends have now joined the army at age 13. I not sure why the U.S.A let them in. Those friend are Sam, Ryan, Alex,and Brandon. I don’t really see them that much because they are on top secret missions, but once in a while they will be at school.
