CHAPTER FOUR

1252 Words
Evangeline's background suddenly changed and she found herself in the library. The library was colossal and extravagant. Her eyes slowly lit up as she walked around the library, looking for the magical genre. Her eyes narrowed when she found ' The book of shadows : f*******n techniques ' she slowly reached for the gold, shimmering book oozing black magic but unfortunately it would not move vUsing all her strength and mana, it still would not budge. " May I help you? " A voice called out behind her, it sounded fragile and frail and weak, startled Evangeline spun around, coming face to face with an old frail woman leaning on a walking stick. " Huh? " she asked confused. " Do you need help? " the old woman asked again. Evangeline looked around trying to think of an excuse. " Uh.. umm, no..uh .no, yeah, I uh.. it's.. and it's nothing " she said awkwardly. The woman looked at her, her eyes narrowing suspiciously before smiling brightly as if nothing happened. " That's a f*******n book, to get these books you need to get a library card " the woman said walking away while she followed closely behind. " but to get a library card you are to be a student and even then, you need a fourth year library card and authorisation from the Headmaster, and the book of shadows being the book of shadows, you'll have to be signed up on the waiting list and be thoroughly watched to determine whether or not you are to be gifted with such evil magic which will never happen " " Why not so? " she asked tilting her head. ." Your evil of course , your are the embodiment if evil and well this is the book of shadows. " she said rolling her eyes " It's full of the most powerful and effective and the most dangerous spells in all twelve realms. Why would they give it to emotionally driven, impulsive hormonal teenagers " the woman scoffed as if it was the most obvious thing. Evangeline looked at the woman, her eyes full of determination and if you looked closer, desperation. " I see your mind has already been made up, you are going to experience hardships, do not choose this path " the woman sighed, her eyes full of confliction and content. She felt bad for Evangeline, she could see her future, a future she wouldn't wish upon anyone. Her eyes cast downward she once again sighed. " There's no changing your mind " " I was always going to lose, I choose good I lose myself and so much more and if I choose bad I will still lose and disappoint those who have done so much for me, it's my destiny don't you see. I'm not the female lead of this story, just stepping stone, I set everything in motion " she smiled. " But I have more to win if do this than when I grow a conscious " The woman looked at Evangeline, she felt bad for the child, she reminded her of herself when she was just shy of five thousand year old and that scared her but she could do nothing but watch on as she damned herself to a life of misery. Evangeline left the library with a new plan in mind. She walked out of the library, she walked through the halls when when she was called out to go to the reception in the intercom. After asking many students where the reception was- which, in my opinion was stupid as it was the first thing you pass when you enter the mansion doors. Behind the desk was a beautiful blonde with emareld eyes, which she assumed was the receptionist. " How may I help you? " the receptionist asked. " uh.. Evangeline Summit " she said unsure. " Ah, yes. The Headmaster left you a few packages " she said pointing to the boxes at the corner. " and these are the documents you must sign to attain those packages and these are to make you an official student here at Victor Academy and by tomorrow morning you'll be situated at your new form with your roommate at the student floor " she handed her the documents, which she happily signed. " The packages will be in your new room by tomorrow " she said waving her hand as she walked away. Evangeline was back at her assigned room when she heard a knock at her door, she sighed as she lazily walked towards it and opened it. " Uh, hi? " she said confused as to who this woman was. " Are you going to let me in " the woman smiled. Evangeline looked at the woman with a blank expression. " No " she said plainly. Although despite her clear response the woman let herself in. " Hi, I'm Amandla Nxumalo. I'm a vampire and your roommate and I wanted to introduce myself " she smiled happily, oblivious to her behaviour. Evangeline looked dumbfounded at the woman. " Okay it was nice to meet you, goodbye. " she said sweetly although there was a threatening tone to her voice. " Anyway, I was wondering if we could hang out today, perhaps right now" she said obviously ignoring Evangeline and her subtle threats. " The doors that way " she said but once again her hints fell on deaf ears. " I know the doors that way, duh. Anyway I think you and I can be very good friends concerning your current dillema " Amandla smiled. Evangeline raised her eyebrows and walked towards her. ." Dillema, what do you know of my dillema " she narrowed her eyes, ready to kill the girl. " I know if you don't do your assigned mission before the deadline, your forced to become a slave in the underworld for all eternity. " she said, smirking, her dark magic oozing out from her. " You and what have the same interests, so I'm here to help you " " Your my babysitter, Very well Just stay out of my way " she said. Her dislike for these arrangements clear as day. " Babysitter sounds so cringe I'm your friend " she smiled, her eyes full of innocence yet so much evil and black curly hair showed a playful side of her personality and her flawless brown skin adding on to her and her red full lips which could entice anyone and her curvy slim body that could be that of a model. She held her hand out as Evangeline just stared at it. She walked towards the door and opened it wasting no time pushing her out. She flipped on her the bed and sighed. Tomorrow she starts school and she felt exited and pissed of at the same time. She stared at the ceilling contemplating whether she should do it or not. She closed her eyes and fell fast asleep. In the morning, she woke and hastily took a shower, she walked to her closet and all the clothes she had wished up were gone and I their place was a red and black plad dress a white button golf shirt a black sweater and knee high black socks and a red blazer with silver buttons and black sneakers. As she had assumed she had to wear a uniform she put it on. " Yay " she said sarcastically, looking at the mirror.
