My 100 post. Well, it's a achievement. But i do have some lame posts which i regretted posting, so it's really nothing. You all know I'm in film sound video course right? So... I have this module STORYTELLING, which, I have to write stories. So I wrote one, and I would like to share it. Don't laugh, any comments just tag. I had to write 1 tragic story, so I thought of the case where the korean guy shot lots of people in the American university, then committed suicide. I got inspiration from it. :) I mean, shit happens, right?

[NOW/PRESENT… Time: 13.22]

Jack’s thankful that his country’s law allows students to bring guns to school. He pulls out his pistol; he’s never used it. He looks at his new and unused black pistol. There are words engraved on it: Colt Government 1911 A1. He takes a last look at his pistol, and muttered,” I’m counting on you, Colt”.

[TEN MINUTES EARLIER…Time: 13.12]

“Wake up!”

Jack wakes up, and looks up to his teacher’s face.

“Do your test, you’re wasting your time,” scowled Miss Barker.

Jack looks wearily at his blank paper, and scribbles some crap on his questionnaire. He’s prepared to fail the test, but the teacher’s not allowing him to. Funny. Jack giggled to himself, and Miss Barker shot him a stern look.

Meanwhile, at the school toilet…

Gary takes out his pistol slowly. He’s sick of the people around him. He’s sick of the pretentious students and teachers. These people are garbage; it’s time to do something about it, thought Gary. He’s sick of his mum putting him to the mental hospital for sessions. Gary thinks he’s perfectly fine, and that the whole world is up against him. He’s sick of the god damn world. “F***!” Gary calms himself down, and stands up slowly…

Jack takes a look at his watch. Time’s up. Torment’s over!

Seated right behind Jack is his girlfriend. Suzie, Suzie Green. She looks confident at her paper, and steals a quick look at his boyfriend’s paper. It is quite empty, with only some crap written. She smiled, and looks at her watch. Looks like its time’s up!

“ Time’s up! I’m collecting the …”

*Knock knock *

The knock on the classroom door interrupted Miss Barker. She walks over to open the door.
Gary stands behind the door, waiting for the door to open. He raises his gun nervously, waiting to press the trigger anytime…

Jack Connors watches as Miss Barker opened the door, mouth opened at what she saw. She gradually raises her hands, as if surrendering. Funny. Jack giggles again. One crazy teacher, he thought.

Gary pulls the trigger, and “Bang!” Miss Barker falls onto the ground, and the last thing she ever saw was the ceiling…

Gary strolls in to the classroom with the pistol raised. Next thing Jack knows, there is chaos in the room. Everybody ran in every direction possible, and Jack watches as his girlfriend Suzie falls onto the ground.

Suzie Green falls onto the ground upon feeling a sharp pain in her abdomen. She looks over to her boyfriend Jack, as he anxiously looks back. Suzie feels numb all over her body, and it seems clear that her time’s up. She looks over to the crying Jack, and with her last breath, blows a kiss to her boyfriend for the last time. Her sight is blurry, and then gradually, pitch black. Nothingness…

Jack, unable to move so as not to get shot, looks at her dead and beautiful girlfriend lying motionless on the floor, eyes wide open. Revenge is now on Jack’s fiery mind. Jack pulls his bag over…

[NOW/PRESENT…Time: 13.22]

Jack’s thankful that his country’s law allows students to bring guns to school. He pulls out his pistol; he’s never used it. He looks at his new and unused black and silver pistol. There are words engraved on it: Colt Government 1911 A1. He takes a last look at his pistol, and muttered,” I’m counting on you, Colt”.

Gary pulls the trigger repeatedly viciously all over the classroom. “Now the world will see that you should never mess with Gary Tyler! Never!” Gary screamed. He then breaks into insane laughter!

Jack muttered while squatting for cover, “Stupid crazy insane laughing guy… You’re so, so dead.” Jack’s so nervous that he can feel his own heartbeat. He closed his eyes and whispered “ For Suzie…” He stands up, with his “ Colt” in his hands…

And right at that exact moment, Gary Tyler and Jack Connor looked at each other in the eye, with guns pointing to each other.

“Bang!”

Gary Tyler feels pain his chest, and staggers down to the floor. He knows he is out of ammo. The pain engulfed him, which was unbearable. Gary slowly points the gun towards Jack once more.

Jack had no choice but to press the trigger two more times.

Gary Tyler drops the gun for the last time, and the last few words he’ll ever speak are “ Dad, I’m coming. I… I…” Then, pitch black. Nothingness.

[TWENTY MINUTES EARLIER... TIME: 13.02]

Complete silence.

Everyone is doing their test, with the only exception of Jack. He’s looking around, playing with his pencils, and day-dreaming. How he wished the test was over faster…

And suddenly, a hand was raised.

Form teacher Miss Nicole Barker walks up to the person, and the person asked politely,” May I go the toilet? I’m kinda… you know… urgent. “

Miss Barker nods her head, and said,” Make it quick, Tyler.”

The person stands up, and heads out of the classroom.

Jack watches as Gary Tyler walks out of the room. Jack always thought of him as a weak person, a useless person who couldn’t stand up to a fight. That’s why Gary Tyler was a victim of bullying in class. Jack even heard he’s been to mental institution before! But somehow, as Gary Tyler walks out of the classroom with his left fists clenched so tightly that blood veins seemed to be bursting, and right hand hiding something in his pocket, Jack felt scared. It seemed like a different Gary Tyler. A more determined Gary Tyler. A fiercer Gary Tyler.

A… somewhat… crazier Gary Tyler.

Hey btw you might find my story weird, cos it's all in present tense. Sorry man, it's the requirement for this course to write in present tense. So all these years from primary 1 to secondary 4 I've been learning to write in past tense, I have to forget it all. Nice.



Okay, that'll be all. To my readers, thanks for reading my blog to my 100th post( For those who care). Means a lot to me.
