The winter storms were now com- ing in full force. The war had begun, each rainstorm a battle in itself. Every new raindrop caused a new leak in the ceiling. We retaliated each time by putting buckets and trash cans under them. The final battle was soon to come. An incredibly large storm from Hawaii was due any day. A series of storms from the north were also on the way. Heavy rain was inevitable. This was it, either we win this one or give up our room to the rain. We prepared ourselves by get- ting buckets, trash cans and anything else together that would hold water. The strom came in, it was as big as predicted. Many inches were expected before it would be over. The rain came down in buckets. Pouring into the classroom from every crack it could find. Streaming down the walls and even coming in through the molding around the door. Water was everywhere. lt seemed like we couldn't stop it. lt was time for us to bring out our spe- cial weapon: custodians. The custo- dians were busy on the roof laying down plastic sheets, draining water and bringing in new supplies to try and stop the rain. It was all in vain, though. The rainstrom was too much for us. Water was now coming in through the lights. There was a chance they would explode. The car- pet was like a lake. You couldn't enter the room without an umbrella. It was definite, we would have to leave. Admitting defeat, we left our class- room to the rain. We had lost the war, or had we? We still had the ulti- mate weapon on our side - time. Time would make everything all right. Time would pass and so would winter, taking the rain with it. Then when dry weather came, our class- room could be reroofed. We'd leave for now, but soon we would be back. Eventually we would win. We would conquer. We would destroy - THE RAIN!!! The Rainlffeature
