HAMERTON 2

Thank you God for this opportunity.
Hallo new viewers!

Hamerton. A large school offering the finest Education to the students of the state and overseas. Natalie joins this school arriving from Brooklyn and she has grief over her lost friends who were murdered in Hamerton. She teams up with Ingrid and their fellow seniors against the House of Representatives to prevent a bomb blast that could cause a large massacre.

Previously on Hamerton; Natalie confronts Paula in the bathroom and their rough encounter leads to collateral damage. Mrs. Bradley is through with interrogation with the police, due to the death of Simon and she feels bad because Natalie kept her in the dark concerning her experience with Simon.

Continue;

Ingrid sat on a waiting bench with Cheryl and Fred, the next morning at 6am. They waited anxiously for Natalie to be discharged and hear news about Paula.

They were both admitted in the school clinic and Natalie had minor injuries compared to Paula.

Ingrid rose when she saw Natalie appearing from the corridor leading to the waiting room.

Natalie limped on one foot and groped on the wall for support. Before Ingrid walked forward, nurse May, who was at the receptionist’s desk, dashed to Natalie to receive her.

“Are you doing alright?” The nurse asked.

“I will be fine.” Natalie replied shortly. She could not get over what she may have done to Paula.

“Natalie.” Ingrid called, approaching them.

The nurse parted from them and Ingrid hugged her friend. “I was so worried.”

Natalie hugged Ingrid back, strongly. She needed the support of a friend so much.

Ingrid drew back and checked her friend. “How are you doing? Are you doing alright? Do you need anything?”

“Yes.” Natalie replied. “I want to know if Paula’s alive.”

Ingrid frowned. “What? After what she did to you?”

“Ingrid, nothing is deserving the loss of someone’s life. Please, tell me how Paula is.”

“Natalie?”

Natalie looked behind Ingrid and noticed Cheryl and her camera man for the first time. She smiled at them. “Hi.”

“Sorry for what happened to you.” Cheryl added on behalf of her and Fred.

“Thank you Cheryl. Now, can anyone tell me what happened to Paula?” She asked before a new group of the St. Ann Marie students entered the clinic from the open swing doors in front of them.

 Lucie, who also escaped prison, led the group and frowned when she saw Natalie. “You! You are a murder! How could you do that to my friend?” she growled.

Natalie gulped. Paula died?? She took in a deep breath and told Lucie. “I had no intention of killing your friend. She came to the bathroom to attack me.” She defended herself.

Lucy’s face folded with rage. “You are a liar!” she shouted.

“Okay. Stop it! All of you.” Nurse May ordered, standing behind the reception desk. “Nobody’s dead, alright?”

Natalie sighed with relief.

“But, still. She deserves to be jailed for trying to kill her.” Lucie insisted.

Ingrid stepped in front of Natalie, getting mad at Lucie. “Don’t you even feel ashamed of yourself when you say that? Everybody knows how you and Paula, murdered Natalie’s friend in Berlin during the international competitions. Natalie wasn't bold enough to be witness to the hearing against you but, if it wasn't for that, you two would be rotting in prison for what you did.”

Lucie was silent, biting her lower lip in anger.

Just then Dr. Gamaliel arrived the waiting room from the corridor and greeted with amazement, the fisty atmosphere.

Natalie turned to him. “Doctor, how is Paula doing?”

“So, now you are acting like you care.” Lucie reckoned rudely.

The doctor glanced at Lucie and looked back at Natalie. “She is out of danger.” He begun and Natalie sighed with relief. “For now.” He added, breaking Natalie’s spirit.

“What is going to happen to her doctor? She hit her head pretty bad.” Lucie asked.

The doctor turned to her. “She has to be transferred to a referral hospital in London. I will talk to Madam Sue now.”

“Amh, can we get coverage on what happened, doctor?” Cheryl asked, as Fred raised the camera he had, recording the doctor.

The doctor took a moment to decide then replied. “Okay. Wait here till I get back from the director’s office.”

“Can we see her?” Lucie asked on behalf of her friends who escorted her.

“Yes of course but, one by one.” He agreed and turned to the nurse. “Nurse May, please escort her to emergency ward.

“Yes doctor.” The nurse said and requested the French girls to follow her.

The doctor left and Cheryl and her camera man turned to Natalie.

“Natalie, can we interview you?” Cheryl asked.

“I am so tired Cheryl.” Natalie whined. She was in no mood of publicity.

“But, Natalie? You are the President and a lot has been going on around campus since yesterday. Everybody thinks that you tried to get back at Paula for the murder of your friend by killing her.” Cheryl informed.

Natalie’s mouth dropped open with shock. “But, I never meant to harm her. She hit me with a heavy pipe. She was going to render me cripple if I hadn't tried anything. I don’t know what else I could have done to defend myself.”

“So, you pushed her to the sink.” Cheryl concluded.

Natalie frowned. “No! How can you say that? I didn't push her.” She cried feeling indignant. “I tried to keep her from hitting me. She hit her head on the sink. That’s what happened.”

Fred directed the camera toward Natalie. “That’s what Hamerton needs to know.”

HAMERTON Chapter 14 - episode 18

             HAMERTON

Hallow new readers & Happy Sunday to you all!
This is a story about Hamerton, a large school that has a lot of things going on, most of them being illegal and terrorizing. Natalie Bradley, an intelligent and talented girl from Brooklyn joins this school after her friend Caitlin who was allegedly murdered in Hamerton. She is agonized by the news of her friend's tragic death and she has to face up with Hamerton's bloody governance in order to secure the President's badge that has the power to decode a bomb that could cause a large massacre, soon.

She teams up with Trevor Tommy, the ex and most renowned president of Hamerton, Ingrid, and other Class D students against Nicky and her fellow evil seniors.

Previously on Hamerton; Cheryl and Fred agree with their friends to interrogate Michael Morningstar in the hospital about what happened to him, so that they can clear Trevor from the rumors spread against him. On arriving the hospital, they, along with the hospital medical practitioners, discover Erin and Michael shot in Michael's ward. 

What happened afterward? 

There was the girl’s body, lying with her head against the boy. From the way she was sitting on a chair next to the bed, it seemed like she had been talking to the patient before they were both killed.

Erin had a bullet hole in her cranium while Michael had a wound on his chest.

There was a gun found in the ward room that had Erin’s finger prints all over it. She must have intended to kill Michael but, why? Or, maybe she killed Michael but, not possibly kill herself afterward. She could not have aimed the gun at the back of her own head.

So, who shot her and who shot Michael Morningstar?

There was no sign of a break-in, the ventilator passages were also sealed. So, what happened?

The nurses? The doctor? They both have perfect alibis. The nurses were at the reception and the doctor was in his office when the shooting took place.

So, who did it?

Corny narrowed his eyes. It all came down to one person-

‘Crr crr crr’

The land line phone rang.

He dismissed his thoughts and received it. “She’s here isn't she?”

“No sir. It’s Mr. Tommy. He’s on the line.”

Corny took a moment in silence, resolving what to do. He could not possibly back out from talking to Trevor’s dad.

His son was missing. Mr. Tommy must have already found that out by then. Plus the murders. And that, Corny was on the case.

“Officer?” Millies called.

“Connect him please.” Corny said.

“Okay.” Millies said before a long beep.

Corny took in a deep breath. He needed it.

“Corny Howls.” Mr. Tommy’s voice came hoarsely.

“Sir.” Corny replied and cleared his throat.

“Where is my son?”

Corny swallowed. “Mr. Tommy, I am very sorry to say that we still haven’t determined the exact location of Trevor but, I've got all my men working on his case. I assure you that we will find him soon.”

“Listen to me Corny Howls. If anything, anything at all happens to my boy, I will deal with you.”

“Mr. Tommy, I guarantee that Trevor will be found.”

Mr. Tommy grunted. “Do you already know what happened to him?”

“Yes. He was kidnapped by one of his schoolmates. I already have a lead so, be sure to hear from him soon.”

“Don’t give me that.” Mr. Tommy retorted. “Give me my son back. I don’t care what you have to do. Find my son!” he bawled and left the connection.

Corny sighed afterward, rubbing his forehead while still holding the receiver.

“Sir?” Millies came softly.

“Was it a secured connection, Millies?” Corny asked.  

“Yes.”

“Okay. Find Natalie Bradley ASAP.”

“Yes sir.”

“And before you go, remember to keep this operation of finding Trevor highly classified. I don’t want the other police force suspecting anything. Inform Borris and the others. I think that they don’t know that Trevor Tommy’s missing.”

“Yes.”

“Good.” He said and hang up.

              HAMERTON

Hallow new readers!
This is a story about Hamerton, a large school that has a lot of things going on, most of them being illegal and terrorizing. Natalie Bradley, an intelligent and talented girl from Brooklyn joins this school after her friend Caitlin who was allegedly murdered in Hamerton. She is agonized by the news of her friend's tragic death and she has to face up with Hamerton's bloody governance in order to secure the President's badge that has the power to decode a bomb that could cause a large massacre, soon.
She teams up with Trevor Tommy, the ex and most renowned president of Hamerton, Ingrid, and other Class D students against Nicky and her fellow evil seniors.

Previously on Hamerton; Erin hears Michael's version of his story. It happens that, It was Duane Duncan who hit him and according to Duane, at Trevor's instructions. Erin tries to convince Michael that Trevor could not have possibly hire Duane to hurt him but, Michael Morningstar is reluctant to cooperate. 
She threatens him with a gun and a bullet is released. 

Continue;

The gun shots in Michael’s ward caught the attention of all of the patients in the school hospital.

“Oh my God what was that?” Two nurses at the reception asked each other.

At the entrance, Fred and Cheryl arrived with their camera and microphone.

“Good day nurse Abby, nurse May.” Fred greeted first. “We are here to interview a patient, Michael Morningstar. Can we see him please?”

The nurses had disturbed faces because of the shot. Before any of them could reply, their boss; Dr. Gamaliel came from his office and asked. “Did anyone else hear that?”

“I think it was a shot.” Nurse Abby said.

“I also heard something just before we stepped foot in here.” Cheryl contributed.

“So, where did it come from?” the doctor asked.

There was a cry from one of the wards and the nurses and doctor rushed out toward the direction of it.

Fred and Cheryl followed.

Just in case, Fred had his camera rolling.

As the five approached the corridor leading into the wards, they heard more cries. The patients were altogether frightened by the sound of gunshots and begun to cry.

The five entered the ward of one junior at a single door to Michael’s open ward. The girl was the one who made the cry.

Nurse Abby walked to her to console her.

“It’s okay. Hush.” Nurse Abby coaxed.

“It’s alright Felicia.” The doctor promised. “Calm down. Did the shots wake you?”

Felicia nodded.

“So, where did they come from?” Fred asked lowering his camera.

Cheryl’s eyes flashed recalling the opened ward she glimpsed at, next to this girl’s room. “Who’s sleeping next door?”

The nurses and doctor turned to her.

“Michael Morningstar. Why?” Nurse May replied and asked.

Without response, Cheryl scurried out of the room to the ward adjacent to Felicia’s.

The other’s followed in queer and came to pause right where she halted, at the threshold of Michael’s ward.

Cheryl had frozen with her mouth dropped open and eyes widened, beholding the gruesome sight of Erin’s body, lying against Michael’s, with bloody bullet holes on both their heads.

“Jesus.” Fred whispered, rolling.

Previously on Hamerton. Ingrid is in Archibald's office arguing with him that Trevor did not beat up Michael Morningstar. She later meets Steven who was missing all the while and he is not ready to support that Trevor was not really involved in Morningstar's hurt. 

Continue;

Ingrid cried running from Archibald’s office. She found some juniors and seniors making groups and chattering about what was going on. She snapped at them and Brendan and his friends who were close by, came to draw her from making a scene.

“Get a hold of yourself.” Brendan advised.

“Trevor did not hurt Michael. Why doesn't anyone see it?” Ingrid asked, crying.

“I see it.” Brendan told her. “We all do.” He added nodding to a couple who he was with; Cheryl and Fred.

Fred was with a phone, he lowered it and faced the others. “Not reachable. But, I also got Natalie’s text earlier, she has already arrived Heathrow.”

Ingrid wiped her tears, getting comforted by the news. “Natalie’s coming?”

“Yes.” Fred replied.

“See Ingrid? That’s one good news.” Cheryl said.

“It is great that she will be here. Now we’ll have to focus on cleaning Trevor’s image.” Brendan suggested.

“I can try to do something. For instance, what does Michael say?” Cheryl asked.

“I don’t know…” Ingrid said just realizing that she was crying over what people said. “I guess maybe he has been saying that Trevor hit him because that’s what the whole school is saying.”

“Brendan, Fred? Have you gone to visit Michael in the hospital?”

They shook their heads.

“Maybe someone has spread a rumor?” Brendan asked.

“Let’s get the interview then, Fred. What do you think?” Cheryl said taking Fred’s hand.

“Alright.” Fred agreed to her and turned to Brendan and Ingrid. “Later guys. And stay calm Ingrid, everything will be cleared out in the end.”

Ingrid nodded drawing comfort from their cooperation and they left.

                   HAMERTON

 For new readers; Natalie joins Hamerton, a large school that has a lot of things going on, most of it being illegal and terrorizing. She is agonized by the news of her friend's tragic death and she has to face up with the Hamerton's bloody governance in order to secure the President's badge that has the power to decode a bomb that could cause a large massacre. she teams up with Trevor, the ex and most renowned president of Hamerton and Class D students against Nicky and her fellow evil seniors.

Where it ended last time, Trevor, Ingrid and Erin discuss the fate of Hamerton with Natalie's absence in school. Madam Sue, the school director shows up and turns out to be on their side. 

Continue;

The school theater slowly became filled with students, teachers and staff members. They took their positions on the audience seats. It was a day on which the candidates were interviewed and they had to declare their policies before the first debate to take place the following week.

The candidates were questioned by a media personnel (Cheryl) and three representative students including the former president of Hamerton, (Trevor Tommy).

Michael, an Irish and Welsh descendant, tucked his coat sitting opposite Cheryl and the questioners. Tobias, a black English person sat next to Morningstar, fidgeting. He was persuaded by his friends to take the form to run for President, he was not prepared for whatever the quest entailed.

Cheryl begun the interview, turning to the audience. She had a small microphone like the rest of other guests, tied to her shirt and when she greeted, her voice was audible in the whole theater. “Thank you all for coming. Today, we will be launching the first interview bringing together our candidates who have taken forms to become President of Hamerton.” she begun and paused, offering a bright smile. “I am your host, Cheryl Seven. And our guests tonight are Michael Morningstar and Tobias Martin. They are the candidates. We also have Ingrid Neilands and Erin Ford, the former MPs of Hamerton and our very own, Trevor Tommy.” The crowd broke into applaud at Trevor’s name. Cheryl paused, waiting for them to quiet down then turned to the candidates.

 Far from the crowd and at the entrance of the theater, Nicole stood together with Steven.

“I don’t get it.” Nicky broke silence after Cheryl’s introduction. “What are they doing there? Did you have them there?”

“No. no.” Steven denied. “I don’t get it either.”

“They will ruin our candidate. I don’t trust Trevor.”

“And I think that I should leave you. If Trevor or the others see us together, they will not trust me again.”

“No.” she objected grasping his hand. “I want you to stay by my side.”

He grimaced feeling amazed at her. “Nicky, what is your intention?”

“I hate Ingrid.” She said not taking her gaze off her at the stage.

After asking Morningstar a question, Ingrid glanced at the audience. She was looking for Steven and by chance she saw Nicky with him.

Their gaze met.

“I think that all you have is jealousy.” Steven said pulling his hand free from Nicky’s clutch.

Back at the stage, Ingrid glanced away.

“I am not jealous of her!” Nicky growled at him.

“Of course you are. You are jealous of everyone who has come closer to Trevor than yourself.” He claimed.

Nicky frowned, wrinkling her face with temper. “You have no idea of what you are talking about.”

“I know.” He said and stretched his palms in the air. “And stay away from me.” He said and walked out on her.

“Aargh!” Nicky gritted her teeth and stomped out.

“My question is for Morningstar.” Erin said once she was given the floor.

Morningstar smiled knowing that she would go easy on him. After all, they did serve the organization together.

“What makes you think that you will be better than our last president? And what new thinking will you bring to the government?”

Michael cleared his throat, preparing to answer the question. He found it very hard but, he had to try. “Thank you Erin for the question. Amh, well, I must say that for the short time that you served as my deputy minister  you were great and ah…well… if I become President, you will get a promotion-” He begun before Erin cut him short. “Answer the question, Michael.”

“Of course.” He agreed and wiped off dribbles of sweat that already begun showering his forehead. “Amh. I, I believe that I am better than the former president because I’m more… well, I care for the students and I am more intelligent.”

“Let me get this straight.” Erin said, feeling misunderstood. “With your care and ‘more intelligence’ what will you do different from the former President, Trevor Tommy.”

Michael was cornered. He knew that Trevor was the best. He spared no effort to help the Hamertonians. Trevor did everything by example, Michael had nothing extra.

“Michael!” Erin snapped.

“We… well. I shall make sure that the students are calmed since, I have a greater influence on them.” He replied.

“I believe that, you know the nature of Hamerton students.” Trevor intervened. “They are very demanding and troublesome-”

“My oh my Trevor Tommy.” Michael said taking advantage of a loose end. “You are insulting our people.”

With that, he rose and begun walking majestically on the stage, facing the students.

The girls looked at Trevor reproachfully and he only said that it was true.

“Hamertonians, are you demanding?” Michael asked waving his hands in the air.

“NOOOO!” The theater echoed.

Michael smirked. “Are you troublesome?”

“NOOOO!” They roared.

Michael laughed, nodding. “But, Trevor thinks that you are. And you know what I think?”

“YEEEEES?” They asked.

“I think that the former government was not able to meet your demands which I guarantee you will enjoy in my reign.”

The audience broke into a loud applaud and Trevor looked down feeling defeated.

They were done for.
