While she rose up in the elevator she could hear the gun fire. Each shot made her jump and flinch. That was not normal, it sounded like a war was going on up there and she did not like it. She grew ever more worried about her parents as well as the classmates she just left behind. Once she reached the desired floor she got off looking about and could see many others locking themselves into their quarters. What was going on? Were they being attacked? She did not walk but ran instead. She needed to check in on her family and make sure they were alright. She was then going to plan on regrouping with those she left behind if she could. When she got to her quarters she pressed a button opening the door to find her parents praying. She tossed her new uniform onto a table and ran to them. "Did you hear those gun shots?"
"Yes,hun" responded her father, not even opening his eyes. She saw that they were alright and sighed with relief. 
"Seeing as you two are alright, I am going to go see if everyone else is alright okay?" She told them and they opened their eyes and nodded. 
"Be careful dear" Her mother said. She did not know that this was probably going to be the last time she would see them. When she exited her quarters she ran to the elevator waiting for when Mathew and the others came up them. She held her hands together and closed her eyes praying that the gunfire wouldn't claim them. The fire sounded farther up but you never know. It could escalate even further. She had no clue as to what was going on in the maintenance wing, only that the workers she saw didn't look okay. However, that was no longer her concern. The sound of guns had her full attention right now.
