RECAP: Suddenly my eyes landed on something that made me pull to a stop. What I saw made my heart beat increase even more, if that's even possible. My eyes landed on the balcony floor and there, I saw something dark. It was a shadow, not any shadow. It was well defined in the shape of a man.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I jerked out of bed, my heart pounding in my chest, I was breathing heavily. I was slightly shaking and had sweat on my forehead. It was just a dream. I kept on telling myself that until my breathing calmed down and heart beat came to a normal rate. It all looked so real, I just couldn't get those thoughts out of my head. I was still haunted by the memories of my mothers murder, which gave me nightmares almost every night. Suddenly there was a knock on my door. Just like in my dream. My eyes glued to the door, I stayed quiet, the only sound I could hear was my heart beat. After what seemed like an eternity, another sound made it's way to my ears, three knocks. I could see a shadow under the door, someone was there. Why would someone be knocking on my door at 7 am? My thoughts were answered as my door slowly opened. I caught my breath and then someone came into view. Jason.

"Oh your akwake!"

"Looks like I am!"

He laughed "Hey I was just wondering if you were coming to school today?"

School? Shoot! I forgot about school! Well that's just great, I was planning on sleeping in, but I guess that's not going to happen. I thought I didn't have to worry about being bullied anymore. I totally forgot that moving meant going to a new school, with new people. Jason noticed my sudden change, as my smile turned into a concerned face.

"Hey Emma listen, no one is going to bully or pick on you. If someone dares, tell me and I'll take care of it. For the friends part, all my friends are super excited to meet you. Besides, they're the ones begging me to bring you to school today."

"Really? Your friends want to meet me?"

"Of course! Now get ready, we're leaving earlier to get your schedual and locker."

He didnt have to tell me twice, I was out of bed in less than a second, making my way towards the bathroom.

"Hurry up Emma, you dont want to be late on your first day of school!"

"Im coming!"

I grabbed my backpack beside my bed and ran out of my room. Dad had took the time to go school shopping just for me, nothing was missing, I had every thing I needed. To be honest I think he kind of went a bit over board with the school supplies, but I'm not complaining, I never had so much stuff before. I arrived at the front door where Jason stood impatiently, waiting for me. He already had the door opened for me, all I needed to do was step outside. As I stepped outside the door, the cold morning breeze made contact with my skin, a small shiver ran through my body. I didn't dress too warm since Jason told me it got hot in the afternoon, especially in the classrooms. I was wearing red shorts with a cropped white tank top, I wore a sweater over it to keep me warm since we were walking to school, or so I thought. Jason had told me that the school was only 10 minutes away by foot. Jason made his way to the garage and I followed close behind. I waited patiently as the door slowly opened.

"I thought you said we were walking to school?"

"Oh I did? Well we sort of are."

"How can we "sort of" walk to school?"
