[center][color=00a651][b][h2][u]Ant Pearce[/u][/h2][/b][/color][/center] Ant walked around the high school. There were some students who had walked out of their classroom and frantically looked around, panicking at what they had just witnessed. Ant knew that feeling. One moment she was talking to them, the next they were just gone. She assumed that the same thing had happened to these kids. They all had the same questions on their lips: Where did everybody go? What's happening? Some of them held their phones up in the air searching for even the tiniest bit of a signal. Ant was almost tempted to shout at them. [i]There's nothing! No matter how hard you try, the phones aren't working![/i] She glanced back at her own phone, which still remained black, and ran a shaking hand through her hair. Her first plan had been to run all the way back to the apartments and find the twins, but a quick look at the roads told her that it wouldn't be wise. Cars without their drivers were hitting poles, climbing the sidewalks, and bouncing off of each other. They still had the momentum pushing them forward, and Ant knew that she'd probably get herself injured if she tried to traverse that. That was how she found herself inside the high school, looking through the rooms in search of someone - [i]anyone[/i] - that might have the answer. Unfortunately, she wasn't getting anything from these kids. She wondered briefly if the people at Coates were also suffering from this. If so, did they have the answers? Ant frowned to herself as she came to a stop in front one of the classrooms, where she'd seen some boy slam the door behind him as he reentered the room. Coates Academy was far from where she was. It would probably take her a little more than an hour - probably more - to walk and maneuver through the mess in the streets. [b][color=00a651]"Dammit!"[/color][/b] she cursed, making some of the students in the hallway turn to look at her. Before they even had a chance to question who she was and what she was doing there, she entered the classroom nearest to her. She blinked back at the students that were still inside - she recognized some of them - and propped herself up on the teacher's table. She looked at them expectantly. [b][color=00a651]"Any of the [i]bright minds[/i] over here can tell me what the fuck just happened?"[/color][/b] she asked, every word dripping with Coates brand sarcasm. But she knew she'd let a waver take on her voice as well. Fear. She hated it, but there it was. She was scared. [b][color=00a651]"Come on, people. Theories? Anyone's got them?"[/color][/b] She ran her eyes around the room before pointing at someone holding up a phone and talking to a girl she didn't recognize. [b][color=00a651]"You. What's your name again... Alex? Yeah, Alex. Talk."[/color][/b] The last word felt off as it came out of her mouth. It felt as if it carried a different weight to it as the others, but she couldn't figure out what made the order different.
