Helanie:
There were screams, agonizing screams and yelps as so got hurt in the process. Many ogas fell to the ground, and the others just walked over them.
"What the heck is going on?" Jenny started to cry almost instantly. I noticed Lamar looked so concerned before his eyes t mine, and he acted like he didn’t care about her. Poor guy, it was obvious he had feelings for her.
Penn arrived, and our group was the last one to reach the exit when we heard another shot from the second floor and then a loud scream.
"What happened? Sothing happened," I turned to Penn, who was also looking toward the staircase.
"That fool probably shot soone," Penn hissed, shaking his head.
Guilt and sudden regret hit . The next thing I knew, I was trying to go for the stairs when Lamar held my arm and dragged out of the academy.
"What are you doing?" Lamar asked, confused about why I had to go for the rescue of whoever got shot.
"Lamar, it’s--my fault," I muttered under my breath, biting my tongue.
"What?" he questioned, but the air changed as four cars dashed past and parked in front of us.
The trainers ca out one by one, shocked looks plastered on their faces.
"What is happening here? Why are you all standing outside in the cold?" It was Norman who took the first step, wearing a gray suit and looking even broader than yesterday.
Emt was in an all-black suit, Maximus wearing a black coat and white shirt, with Kaye only wearing a black shirt tucked neatly into his pants.
"Sir, Rayden has lost his mind," one of the students yelled, making the brothers quickly look around and ease up until their eyes landed on . It was as if they were already aware of the stress Rayden caused .
"I will go check," Norman said, but his brothers seed all set to go behind him.
"You guys stay here and check the injured students," Norman noticed so students were bleeding from their noses and elbows. So had their heads split, all set to be treated.
It wasn’t too big, but Rayden had acted really stupidly.
I should have known he would lose his mind.
"You okay?" While passing by to check on the students behind , Kaye asked in a subtle tone. Only after I gave him a nod did he proceed to check on the others.
After a few minutes, Norman ca out holding Rayden by his collar, his legs dangling in the air. Norman had snatched the gun out of his hands by this point too. Rayden looked guilty, especially when Norman seed so enraged.
I noticed blood dripping down in streams from Rayden’s arm.
Norman threw Rayden to the ground and then stood in front of him with his hands on his waist.
"Explain your behavior," Norman yelled.
The others had also co back to stand next to Norman and glare at Rayden, who now had to explain why he was running around chasing down a deadly viper.
"I can explain," Rayden said through heavy breaths. He looked like a ss.
"It seems like he shot himself," Lamar whispered in my ear, gesturing at his arm.
"Then you better explain already," Kaye hissed, his arms folded over his chest.
Rayden got up with difficulty, trying to stand straight, but I could tell the glares from the brothers were affecting him. He then stood obediently, not even caring about the bullet in his arm.
"There’s a deadly viper in there that was put in my locker," Rayden’s wild claim brought silence. Norman cocked his head and closed his eyes, as if he wanted to seriously focus on what Rayden had just told him.
"In your locker?" Norman asked for his brothers, who seed to be as confused as everyone else around.
"Okay, I’ll start from the beginning. This guy over here," Rayden pointed at Lamar, who groaned, "this guy slept with my mate again."
I closed my eyes because I didn’t know he would say it like that. Jenny grunted, looking around embarrassingly at everyone watching her.
"Yes, he slept with her at his motel. And then--it’s not her fault though," he quickly added, watching her look so embarrassed.
It seed like he truly would have loved her if he hadn’t been the kind of man that he was.
"And then--Lamar got jealous because she is still with , so he left a deadly viper in my locker. He wanted to get bitten by it and suffer," Rayden pointed his whole arm at Lamar, throwing accusations that once again caused gasps to ripple through the crowd.
The brothers exchanged a glance, looked at Rayden, and then at Lamar.
"And who shot you?" Norman asked.
"Oh that--I saw sothing on the ground and thought it was the viper. I accidentally--" Rayden shut up once he realized he couldn’t say in loud and clear words that he dropped the weapon out of fear and it fired on him.
The deadly viper would have been nothing to an alpha like him. But the vipers from the rogue community are said to grow up on the dead bodies of monsters. They can be very deadly and dangerous to anyone.
"Lamar," Emt uttered, asking my friend to speak for himself.
"Sir, I don’t know what he’s talking about," Lamar stepped forward to explain himself. He must have been caught off guard.
"Really? What if I tell you I have proof?" Rayden’s confidence intrigued everyone. Even Jenny looked bewildered at the turn of events.
"Okay, show us the proof," Norman cleared his throat, demanding evidence. If Rayden was able to prove he wasn’t lying, Lamar would be in huge trouble.
Rayden turned to and smiled, signaling that he wanted us to work as a team.
"Helanie, show them the text ssages." As soon as he said that, Lamar turned to with his eyes wide open.
I gave Rayden a nod and started going through my phone.
