"You don't have any form of weapon, do you?"
Chris,"Not really."
Luis,"You have scissors? They prove to be a pretty good weapon."
Piers walks over to the teachers desk, opening the drowers. He laughs,"Teachers really follow by the rules, don't they?"
He holds up a knife. Walking over he hands it to Chris, but Chris takes the scissorhe found instead,"I did love this teacher."
Piers offers the knife to Luis and I, but we decline. He's the youngest out of all of us, but probably the smartest. Walking over to the air duct, we all put out scissors and knife away, either in our boot of belt. I put mine in my boot, I'd probably lose it if it was in my belt. We help Piers up first because he's the one who knows which way we're going. He studied the ventalation in one of his classes, and I guess it paid off. Chris goes up next, being the strongest of all of us. Then, Luis goes up. Luis helps me up last. The ventalation is small, hard to fit through for me. I can't imagine how hard of a time Chris is having. He's probably twice my size.

When we get there, Piers throws open the vent. The girl's jump at this, but showthat they're happy to see us. Claire hugs Chris for a while. He talks to her, calming her down. I walk over to Ada, who just has her hands folded. She looks distant though, distracted. I put a hand on her shoulder, and she looks up at me. I give a small smile,"You alright?"
She nods, not much of a talkative person. We've known each other for years now, all of us have. I know when somethings getting to her, which this is affecting all of us. She's more than just a friend to me though, so I notice her moods more than the others do.
"We're going to get out of this, I promise."
She tries to smile but fails.
