    The audience members all waited for someone to say something, anyone. But no one did. Finally, I ran over to Griffin surrounded by a pool of blood, and put my ear by Griffin’s heart to see if it was beating. It wasn’t, it was dead, he had flatlined, like the rest of the people mentally, who couldn’t believe their eyes. Finally, after it seemed like forever, I looked around and screamed call 911. Elisha the young woman in the front row got out her phone and called. We could all hear her describing what had happened as calmly as she could. Five minutes later we all heard a siren, everyone looked around at each other. Then we heard hurried footsteps in the hall scurrying it was the EMT.

    I used to love reading. In kinder and first, my nose was stuck in a Magic Tree House book. Third, fourth, and fifth grade I basically lived at Hogwarts (in my rightfully sorted house, of course, I am a proud Hufflepuff). And in middle school, I discovered THE tween series of my generation, Maximum Ride. Reading was exciting, and even though I had done it for years every time I picked up a book it felt so novel. I was your ordinary bookworm until seventh grade when the joint power of Ms. Green’s teaching and James Patterson’s writing broke my will to read.…
