As Inspector Tenzin Doelma arrived at the scene, a heavy sense of grief hung in the air, mingling with the acrid scent of gunpowder and the echoes of terrified screams that still reverberated through the corridors. Each step she took was laden with the weight of responsibility, the burden of unraveling the senseless tragedy that had shattered the peace of the school.

With every command she issued, there was an undercurrent of determination, a fierce resolve to bring justice to those who had been taken too soon. But beneath her steely exterior, Inspector Tenzin grappled with a tumult of emotions—the anguish of grieving parents, the shock of traumatized witnesses, and the overwhelming sense of loss that permeated the very fabric of the community.

As she surveyed the scene with a trained eye, her heart clenched at the sight of two lifeless bodies lying side by side, their hands clasped together in a final gesture of solidarity. In that poignant moment, the true extent of the tragedy struck her with a visceral force, threatening to overwhelm her with sorrow.

Summoning every ounce of her professional composure, Inspector Tenzin motioned for her assistant to call for an ambulance, even as her own heart ached with the knowledge that there was little hope left to cling to. With each passing second, the weight of grief pressed down upon her shoulders, threatening to crush her beneath its crushing force.

As the constable knelt beside the two friends, Inspector Tenzin held her breath, her pulse quickening with a desperate hope that defied reason. But as the constable's grim expression confirmed what she already knew deep down, a wave of sorrow washed over her, threatening to drown her in its relentless tide.

There were no words to express the depth of her sorrow, no solace to be found in the face of such senseless loss. In that moment, Inspector Tenzin felt the full weight of her duty pressing down upon her, a solemn obligation to honor the memories of those who had been taken too soon.

With tears stinging her eyes and a lump forming in her throat, she made a silent vow to Tashi and Dechen—to ensure that their lives were not forgotten, that their deaths were not in vain. It was a promise she intended to keep, no matter the cost, as she embarked on the arduous journey of uncovering the truth and seeking justice for the two young souls who had been cruelly robbed of their futures.

In the midst of her grief, Inspector Tenzin found a glimmer of determination—a flicker of light amidst the darkness that threatened to engulf her. It was a reminder that even in the face of unimaginable tragedy, there remained a spark of hope—a beacon to guide her through the long and arduous road ahead. And with that resolve burning bright within her, she vowed to honor the memory of Tashi and Dechen, ensuring that their legacy would endure long after the tears had dried and the wounds had begun to heal.

As the paramedics rushed to the scene, their hurried footsteps echoing against the linoleum floors, they exchanged urgent whispers about the severity of the situation. "This is bad," one paramedic murmured to his colleague, his brow furrowed with concern. "We need to prioritize the critical cases."

His colleague nodded in agreement, his expression grim. "Agreed. Let's assess the situation quickly and get medical attention to those who need it most."

As they entered the first classroom, the paramedics were met with a scene of chaos and confusion. Injured students lay scattered across the floor, their cries of pain filling the air. Amidst the commotion, they spotted Tashi and Dechen, their lifeless bodies lying side by side, their hands clasped together in a final act of solidarity.

A somber silence fell over the paramedics as they approached the two friends, their hearts heavy with grief. "It looks like they didn't make it," one paramedic whispered to the other, his voice choked with emotion.
