They walk over to her while we stand around and pretend like we dont know what is going on.

"Ma'am, you have to leave," the taller man, whose nametag reads Jim G. states firmly. 

"What? Why? I'm a part of this group!"

"May we see your pass and wristband then?" The other guy with glasses asks crossing his tattoo covered arms. His name tag is backwards.

"I..." she pauses. "Well, I don't have it! My boyfriend didn't give me one yet!"

"That's because I don't have any! I bought myself one because you just decided to pop up out of nowhere to "surprise" me!" Mark snaps.

"Well sorry for wanting to be sweet! Sorry I don't only think of myself!"

"You need to leave, you don't have any proof you are a part of this party." Jim grabs her by the arm. 

"Mark is my proof! If he just tells you guys I am I can stay right?"

"Is she a part of your party?" Backwards name tag says.

We all wait in anticipation for Mark's response. He slowly shakes his head no. They look on Claire's face just said that something desastorous was about to happen.

The guards begin to take her away. I turn to Mark.

"I know that must've been tou-"

"Miss, drop your weapon!"

Gunshots are fired.

"Everybody down, or run to the nearest exit now!" Grace screams.

The innercom turns on telling people where the locations of the exits are, and which one is closest to the section of the building you are in.

"Don't any of you move." She snaps, and points the gun to all of us.

"Yeah, like she's actually gonna use that on any of us," Jack says a little to confidently.

She cocks the gun at Jack. "I shot him," she nods in the direction of the guard that's down. Backwards nametag. His partner begins to drag him away behind behind a knocked over table. Jack slyly slides behind Mark.

"She won't shoot, Mark," he mumbles. Grace gives him a look. Everyone around us is panicking, running, screaming. At least Claire isn't paying any mind to anyone but us. Giving everyone a chance to get out safely. Mostly everyone around us has called the cops by now. We just have to wait and hope that no other bad thing happens. I look around and everyone is gone. Some of the guards are hiding. Probably calling for backup. The guards for some reason don't have guns, which makes me question the safety of security for this place. Cop sirens begin wailing, growing louder with every second.

With the cops being here any second, I wonder what Claire's plan of action was for this.

"I bet you're all wondering what my plan of action is," she says slowly circling us, still pointing the gun. All our hands are up to show we are ready to oblige.

Wow is she some kind of mind reader?

"I'm not some kind of mind reader either," Okay. That's just creepy. "That's just what everyone thinks in these situations." Oh that makes sense now.

"I'm it hasn't become clear yet, you all are my hostages. The cops 2ont do anything as long as your lives are at risk."

"Have you never seen a hostage movie?" Bob asks. "Cops are trained to fix these situations well."

"I'm glad you brought that up." Claire starts. We all groan. "What?" She asks.

"Bob why'd you say that? Now she's going to continue monologing." Wade complains.

"What? I'm not monologing!" She whines.

"Yes, you are," Grace chimes in (with a haven't you people ever heard of). "You are explaining why you're doing this when no one carrs! We all know why you're doing this! You! Are! Crazy!"

"I...am not... CRAZY!" She points the gun at Grace and pulls the trigger.

*Jack's Pov*
I didn't want to get hurt... but I know I couldn't bare to see her get hurt. Better me than her.
