Chapter 1: A strange day

It was just another day at my new transfer school. I was staying here in one of America's largest cities, New York City. I was born in York, and my parents had died when I was 3 and my brother was 10. I have lived with my aunt and uncle in London until the summer of freshman year. My uncle had killed in a car accident at the beginning of the summer leaving my aunt depressed. She became depended on liquor and as summer drew to an end, she sent me to America. My brother had been living in America with family friends, since he had been really committed to becoming a famous musician. At the time I moved to America, he was living in an apartment in New York City. 

But that was now years ago and a lot has changed since that move, especially since now I'm a senior. 

I had been sitting in sixth period, waiting for the bell to ring so I could talk to Clementine. She had been acting strangely today.... as I was waiting I began to drift off.

Daydream{

I saw that my friend Clementine was walking down the hallwhen she suddenly stopped. She grasped her head with both hands as if were in terrible pain. Something then happened that I didn't suspected, the Clementine began to rise. She started to float and continued until she was lying on the celling. She screamed "Make it stop" as she hair turned into a midnight blue. Her eyes became blood red and black wings sprouted from her back. Then Clementine was gone, she disappeared and then hell broke loose. }

I snapped out of my daydream, and relaised that I was still in 6th period. "Poppy. Can please explain this ?" said my elderly teacher. She was looking at me through squinty brown eyes as she pointed a wrinkly hand to a sentence on the board. I replied and looked down at my notebook, there was only a sentence of notes written in it."When do we graduate again? Soon right?" I thought as I sighed then started thinking about my daydream and how detail it was. I glanced across the room to check on Clementine, making sure she was there. She wore a blue sleeveless dress with a white belt. Her long light brown hair was braided and hung over her left shoulder. She seemed distracted and wasn't writing any notes. I heard the bell ring. "Ok class we will continue this tomorrow" my teacher announced. "The test will be moved to Thursday". I packed my notebook and pen into my white backpack and left the classroom with my friend Clementine at my side.

"Poppy you were spacing out again" stated Clementine. "I can't help it if there's a lot on my mind" I replied. "Poppy you got to break that habit of yours." "You're going to fail your exams if you don't" said Clementine. "And what about you, you seemed distracted recently as well" I said. I got no reply, so we started to walk down the hall towards my locker. As I walked, I kept thinking of the daydream I experienced in 6th period. "Well see you later" said Clementine once we stopped in front of my light blue locker. "I have a lot of homework too this evening" said Clementine. She waved at me and continued walking down the hall towards her locker. I turned towards my locker door and opened it. I quickly grabbed my Spanish textbook and a coat. As I was about to close it I released that I had a pencil of hers. Looking down the hall, I saw Clementine at the water fount. She then wiped her mouth with her hand, and continued down the hall. I extended my hand "Oh wait, Clementine." I cried, she stopped but then I sensed something very wrong.

She started to float with her hands on her head, the flash back of my daydream when through my mind. "Make it stop!" she screamed, I quickly started to run in her direction when I felt a barrier with my left hand. I felt a coldness spread on the hand I had extended and make its way up my arm. Stepping back, I hit my locker door. I looked up and saw her with the same shade of midnight blue hair and red eyes. "Clementine!" I screamed but no sound followed. I glanced behind my locker door and towards the other end of the hall, but nobody else was in the hall to help.

Then I heard hello from behind me, as I turned there was a guy my age behind me. He had blonde hair, black pants and a black leather jacket. I looked at him then at Clementine. His showed a slightly disinterest expression at me as if he was forced to be here. "My name is Asher. I have been sent here by the D.H.A.P. organization" "I'm to bring you to safety to them" He said. I gulped "Why am in danger?" "Why should I trust you?" I was becoming scared for my wellbeing now. I looked at Clementine who'd now disappeared and was in disbelief. "What happened here?!" I asked "Why did I experience this as a vision before!?" I looked at him, and he looked shocked of what I said last. " I didn't cause anything that was her true form, and you happened to unlock it when reaching out to her with your hand. Come on there isn't much time before that creature comes for you."

With saying that he took my arm and lead me down the hall, running towards a door. "Wait! I'm not going this is bullshit!" I cried as he loosened griped my arm. "Either you stay here return to your dead brother and parents, or ...." I cut him off "What the fuck do you mean by that!?" He grabbed my hand and looked into my blue eyes. "Poppy, you're family was  hunted and now they're looking for you. We aren't safe now to explain everything , but in a few mins we will be. Will you trust me enough to get you too safety?" he asked. Suddenly we heard a loud crash come from the end of the hall, I saw Clementine along with more strange creatures, all looking at me. Clementine and the other creatures then took off at full speed towards us. "Yes I trust you, lets go!" I screamed. We ran out the school door. "Now what?" I screamed. The creatures were on the other side of the door about to fly out. "We need to take off so get ready to take off!" He shouted as he grabbed my waist and jumped with a strong force.
