That One Night 🌙

I Saw It Again

She comforted me as she always does.  as she said the same thing as she aways  says . " Just kick their ass, you're stronger than them anyway" I laughed,  I always liked it when she said that It always cheers me up.  " Okay... Okay  being serious here kid , you need to tell somebody , tell the principal or  your parents don't they care ?"   She said worried again.  " I keep telling you this,   My parents are always busy and don't give two shits about me,  besides I told them once they just said to walk away" I said as the bell rang. "Oh..  I guess I have to go , thank you " as i ran out.

The hallway quickly filled with kids all probably wanted the same thing to get home. The day went by quickly. But when I was in my last period I saw the thing again. I was outside in gym class. Well, we were running on the track. All the kids passed me so I was by myself again. I was looking at the dark, thick, frosted near the school. When the thing was standing there. Right there between two tall trees. The thing was looking at me this time, not moving just there. It looked like it was dead or something. " HEY ALEX I WANT TO SEE THOSE FEET MOVING! " The gym teacher said. I suddenly realized that I was just standing there. "O, sorry ma'am," I said to her as I started moving and then I looked back at the thing IT WAS GONE! I was scared. That thing sure was quick! The thing must have some super speed or something. Then I heard a scream. One of the girls was coughing out blood. The gym teacher ran to her well, everyone whispered and one of them called the police.  Then another person coughed out blood and then soon eight people were coughing blood.  It was horrible! I suddenly realized they had just taken a drink from their water bottles before they coughed out blood.  I was stunned, I had to do something about it and fast! I then shouted out " STOP, nobody take a drink of their water bottles" everybody looked at me confused and shocked.  Somebody then said "why should we" I responded Immediately without hesitation " If you guys haven't noticed all the people that are coughing up blood right now all took a drink for their water bottles, so that means the water bottles are either A poisoned or B Somebody put something in their drink to make them feel this sick" Everybody was silent for a minute then they all started to pour out all their water bottles. Another person then shouted out "look at the grass it's burning" We all looked down at the grass well it was getting eaten up by the water! This means I was right, but who would have done this horrible thing? I was questioning everything but then we heard sirens and the police came along with the ambulance and took them to the hospital.

After everything was Settled the teacher told us " I think that it is for today". We all went to the lockers to get out of our gym clothes. In the boy's locker room everyone was talking about it. One of the boys thanked me For being as he put it " a superhero"! I was happy, nobody has ever thanked me before or even respected me! It was nice to have a change! Everybody then started to talk about other things as I slowly started to become Invisible again. "U saw it too right ?" a boy said from the shadows. He had almost white-bluish colour fluffy hair and was about my height, and had these beautiful blue eyes that had a dead look in them,

" what. Hu? Who are you..?" I said confused. "o sorry I am not good with people, my name is Luca, we actually have a lot of classes together". I paused. I have heard his name before but where? I suddenly remember, "YOU'RE THE KID WHOSE PARENTS ARE MURDERS" I covered my mouth. I said that out loud. Everyone looked at me and all I could do was just stand there shaking. Everyone was scared of him so they did not say anything. "Sorry," I said with a really embarrassing red face. " It's is ok," he said with an angry tone. "Umm... Ok," I said I didn't know what to say at that point. " So much so for a first impression," I thought to myself. I felt bad for him, he probably just wanted people to stop treating him like a murderer. "Anyway, did you see the thing too"? He said ready for a Response, " umm... a. Yea" I said,

" You're scared of me aren't you?" he said with a considered look. I responded with a questionable "no", "you seem like you are" he said. I quickly changed the subject. "....the thing that was in the forest, I actually saw it this morning as well do you think the thing was the one that caused the blood ?" "yeah", he said I don't know where it came from but it seemed like it was coming after someone or something"

"Could it be a person that the thing escaped from somewhere? I mean it was inhuman?" I said.

"Maybe but I can not be for sure, It definitely wasn't human because it has super speed It was really skinny almost to the bone "

"yeah, when I saw it today it was really fast but I wonder why? like you said it's really skinny So I'm wondering how it could run so fast? " As Luca was about to say something the bell ring. It was time to go home.
