"Sorry, I almost got lost. I'm the new student." Logan comes into the classroom. At least there was someone already sitting in the seat beside me. So you know what he does? He sits in the seat behind me. I know he is going to take any chance he could to mess with me. While Ms. Robinson was giving the lesson, I couldn't concentrate. Something wasn't feeling right. Something was telling me to look towards the door. The sound of Ms. Robinson's voice was fading away. That's when the scream came. Everyone looked towards the window where we heard the scream.
"What the hell was that?" Jessica said. Everyone ran out of the room. I got up and start to follow, but Jessica called me.
"Ebony, what are you doing?" she asked.
"I'm going to check it out. Let's see what's going on." At first, Jessica seemed hesitant, but she got up.
"I'll come with you." Logan said. This is the most serious I have seen him. We went outside to where the crowd is. People were whispering and gasping. All of a sudden, there was this voice in my head telling me to get closer. I start pushing through the crowd. I could hear Jessica behind me saying,
"What is she doing?" I get to the front and I see a little girl. She looks so terrified. One of the administrators tried calming her down, but she wouldn't let any of them touch her. She looked no older than 5. She looks so adorable with her straight brown hair and her blue eyes. It was like she knew I was looking at her because she looked right at me and she ran to me and hugged my legs. She looked up at me with her big blue eyes.
"He knows you're still alive." She says. This is so confusing.
"Wait, what?"
"Do you know this little girl?" asked the administrator.
"Uh... Yeah. She's... my little sister." I lied. The administrator looked at me for a little while, but then he turned away.
"There is nothing to see here. Everyone go back inside." he said before he turned back to me.
"Handle this." The administrator said before he walked inside the school with the others. Jessica and Logan walked up to us.
"Ebony, why didn't you tell me you have a sister. Is she adopted?" Jessica asked, smiling at the little girl.
"I lied. She's trying to tell me something. Little girl, what is your name?"
"He knows you alive." the girl repeated, ignoring my question.
"Who know I'm still alive?"
"He's coming. In three days on the full moon, war begins. You dead." she said. That's when chills went down my spine. What she mean war? Why am I going to die? This makes no sense. The girl continues to talk.
"He failed the first time, but he will succeed."
"What are you talking about?" The girl looked past me and pointed behind me.
"Ask him." she whispers. I looked behind me and see she's pointing to Logan.
"Wait...what?" I turned back around and the girl is gone.
"This is some scary stuff." Jessica said.
"What does she mean he knows I'm alive?"
"Can we go inside now?" Jessica whined, but I didn't pay attention to her. I turned to Logan who was quiet. His face was pale, as if he just saw a ghost. I start thinking about this. I just remembered today is the anniversary of Justin's death. But what does Logan have to do with any of this?
"Ebony?" Jessica shook me.
"Oh sorry. Yes?"
"Can we go inside?"
"No. We can't. I'm too late." Logan says.
"What are you talking about?" I asked.
"We have to go. I'll tell you when we get in the car."
"Well, you guys enjoy each other’s company. I'll just go inside..." Jessica said as she starts backing away to the school.
"You can't leave. You're in this now since you heard what the girl said."
"I didn't hear anything. I won't tell anyone, I promise."
"Sorry, you're in danger now. They are watching us right now. If you stay, they will find you and you will die."
"Who are ‘they’? This is too confusing. Why do we have to leave?" I asked.
"Just go to your locker, both of you, and get what you need. Meet me at the car." After that, he ran off. Jessica and I turned to each other and start walking towards the school.
"I need to get my backpack from my locker because my purse and keys are in there." Jessica looked at me like I was crazy.
"Are you serious? That little girl just told you about there being a war and all that stuff. I can't stay because now I'm not safe. Yet, you’re talking about what you need. Am I the only confused person here?" Jessica said.
"I'm as confused as you are. We just have to wait until Logan tells us what's going on." We get to our locker and get our stuff. All of a sudden, it seems like it have gotten cold in here. Then I hear a whoosh, as if someone just walked past us.
"Did you hear that?"
"That's the problem. I'm hearing too much. This is what got me in this situation in the first place." Jessica snapped.
"No, not that. Someone is in this hallway with us." We kept quiet as we listened.
"I don't hear anything. Let's just leave before your boyfriend comes and try to find us."
"Logan is not my boyfriend."
"Yeah. Okay." We get our stuff and leave our lockers.
As we walked through the hallway, this man who look like those bad men in the movies, with his slick back hair, dark sunglasses, leather jacket, and his clothes are black. He is very huge and muscled. Something was telling me that something bad was about to happen so Jessica and I turned to walk the other way, but a guy who was dressed like the other guy was walking down the other way. We were trapped.
"Um, Ebony... You know those men?" Jessica asked nervously.
"No. You?"
"Nope. That is why I asked you/"
"Well, I don't know them."
"Maybe they are aliens."
"Aliens?"
"Yeah." Jessica took a step toward them.
"Welcome to America." Jessica said slowly and loud. I swear this is one of Jessica’s dumb blonde moments. One of the guys raised an eyebrow at Jessica.
"Jessica. Maybe we should leave."
"Not yet. Maybe they are still trying to understand."
"Jessica..."
"We... are... humans. Why did you come to our planet? This is earth." I rolled my eyes.
"Jessica, you are embarrassing yourself."
"No I'm not. This is awesome."
"I don't think they are aliens. You can basically see that they understand you."
"Thank god. I thought I would have to talk like that forever."
"Yeah…. Let's leave…. now." That's when both of the men start walking closer from each side.
"Ebony, something is telling me that they are bad people." Jessica said frightened. I gave her the "you think" look. There were no more hallways and the only way we could escape is through the window in front of us, but we can't break the glass because we are not strong enough. All of a sudden, someone jumps through that window and landed on his one of his knees. When he got up, I see its Logan. That's when the two men were close enough that they start to attack Logan.
"Logan!" I screamed. There was no way that Logan can beat both of those huge men. The men were giving punches, but Logan blocked them. The first man start running toward Logan, but Logan jumped up and kicked the guy in the chest. It must have been a powerful kick because the man was sent flying across the hallway against the wall. No, not against the wall- IN the wall. What is he? Superman?
Logan turned to us.
"Go. Go to the car now. I'll meet you there."
"What the hell was that?" I asked. I'm still shocked.
"Go!!" Logan yelled as he ducked as the second man swung at him. Swiftly, Logan turned around and all I hear is a wet, snapping sound of something breaking. The guy fell on the ground, his head in an awkward position, blood pouring out of his mouth. Logan just broke the man's neck.
"You don’t have to tell me twice! Come on Ebony!" Jessica yelled as she stepped out of the window and she start running towards the parking lot. I looked back at Logan before I start running too. "What is he?" kept playing over and over in my mind.
Chapter 8We got in the car, Jessica getting in the back and me getting in the driver’s side. I look up to see a black SUV in front of the school, facing us. I'm trying to turn on the car as I see the door open and three men dressed like the men inside the school get out. They start running towards us.
"There are more of them?"
"I don't care. All I want you to do is drive away." Jessica yelled.
"I can't."
"Why the hell not?"
"My car won't start."
"You and your stupid car."
"Hey! I didn't buy the car. Dad did. So why don't you blame him." Jessica was about to say something, but she ended up screaming when one of the men punched his fist through the window and tried to grab for me. I climbed to the back of the seat and stayed close to Jessica. The next thing I know, the man tore off the door to my car and threw it across the street. They smiled.
"Oh my God Ebony. We are going to die. I might as well tell you that I accidently dropped your earphones in dog poop last week."
"What! I have been using it and now you tell me!"
"Sorry. I cleaned it off." she said. I was about to say something else, but one of the guys grabbed my ankle and pulled me out of the car. I tried to kick the guy off me, but he just dragged me out of the car. I was screaming to the top of my lungs, hoping someone would hear me. He picked me up and tried to take me to the SUV, but Logan stopped him and pulled me away from him. The guy grabbed Logan's throat, but Logan punched his fist through the man's chest. The man let go of Logan's neck and fell to his knees. Logan pulled out the man's heart and the guy just went limp to the ground. I stared at Logan in horror. He turned to me and his eyes were glowing and his hands were bloody, with the heart still in one of them, still beating. He dropped the heart as his eyes went back to normal.
"Ebony, are you okay?" he asked as he took a step towards me.
"Stay back! Stay away from me!" I yelled. I looked around to see the other men already dead. I stood up and ran to the car. Jessica got out of the car.
"Let's go."
