Gunpowder permeated the air. Bullets flew, blood spilled until her dress was dyed red like poppies. She didn't even have the time to scream.

The silenced guns popped like glass beads falling. Such a tiny noise and so much damage. Lina remained frozen by the aisle. Panic ensued. Shouts filled the air, chairs toppled over flower petals fluttering in the wind, footsteps rushed onto the ground, whilst others dashed away. Guards filled the room in bulletproof vests, but to no avail.
The only people taking damage were the ones not in protection.
"Lina, what are you doing? Come with me!" Atlantis shouted, grabbing her wrist. His fingers barely made around her hand before his entire body buckled.
SPLAT!
Lina froze. Warmth slewed over her face. Shakily, she touched the liquid. When Lina glanced down at her hands, she finally choked out a scream.
"A-ah…" Lina gasped out, her hands shaking with the sight of the blood staining her fingertips.
