Demon girl

Part 3 chapter 4

The morning came by slow and boring, but the school was different. Today we had a new classmate that was supposed to arrive but is now arriving tomorrow due to a setback. I was afraid it was going to be Ava but shrugged it off. Classes went by fast but during science class, I was put beside Clinton, and I was quite uncomfortable but sucked it up and continued classwork. Ira noticed what happened and was worried about me. I completely forgot to tell her what happened, and how he became more of a friend than an enemy. 

“Emma!” Ira called out. I was sitting on a bench out in the field feeding some blue-jays. 

“Oh. Hey Ira!” I say. As I wave at her the birds fly off. “Oops…” I mumble looking towards the flying birds. 

“Emma, you didn't act all weird around Clinton in science class. I thought for sure your eyes would at least change sitting near him…” she said, sitting beside me. I burst into laughter making her quite confused. 

“Sorry for laughing. it’s just I was going to explain why, but kinda felt shy about it.” I said. I began telling her what happened during the last time I saw Clinton and Carl. 

After a long explanation, Ira began laughing. “So your friends now?” Ira asks. I nod and smile. As we spoke the birds flew back. I handed Ira a bag of bird seeds and we sit there feeding birds. I rest my head on her shoulder, I look down at the ground. Slowly I close my eyes, as my eyes shut everything becomes a blur. I didn't really want to fall asleep, but it felt nice having someone’s shoulder there for me. I could feel Ira put my sweater around me after my eyes close.

Darkness is in my awake. “It’s another dream?” I ask myself. Looking around I see the wolf again. 

“The plan won't go as you wish, it will corrupt the one you love the most. Star is still in danger.” He said. The words were ringing in my head. 

“What do you mean?!” I yell. “please! Just tell me already!” I Scream. Echos ring in my head as I fall to my knees crying. “Emma?” I hear a familiar voice say. I wake up to see Ira’s face in a panic. I look up at her and wipe the tears from my eyes. We smile at each other.

The time passes by and now it’s 6 in the afternoon. I am still sitting with Ira on the bench as Clinton, Carl, and Star all come running up to us. We smile at our friends and make room for them on the bench. We talked for about an hour until Star and I had to go home. We wave to our friends and head off. “Ready for tomorrow?” I ask Star. 

“kinda… I'm still quite scared but I know we can do this,” she replies smiling. “How do you think Ava will react?” she asks. 

I think for a little. “Oh, no…! How dare you fool my plans!” I say in a deeper voice. We laugh and joke for the rest of the day and when it got around 8:45 Star and I got ready for bed. I couldn't sleep, well to be honest I didn't want to sleep. “What does he mean…? How is Star in danger? What will go wrong?” the wolf's words repeated in my head for a while until Star told me to sleep. Of course, I tried to, yet no matter how hard I tried I just couldn't. “I'm going for a fly to clear my head,” I say to Star getting out of bed. 

“Okay but just try and sleep when you get back, ok?” she says. 

“Ok. Cya Star!” I say leaving the room. As I fly around I think and think. I wonder what the wolf meant, I wonder if the plan really will go wrong. I rehearse the plan and go over step by step. “What could possibly go wrong?” I mumble to myself. Then it hits me, I almost broke down in tears with the thoughts in my head. “If they're trying to kill me, then they might kill Ira or Star!” tears stream down my face. “It all could go like the wolf said… the plan going wrong, Star getting hurt. Why couldn't I see it before?” I cry. Is Star really going to die?
