The Living Girl

Nine

Before you read this, there's a little song near the end of the chapter so I advise you to play the video when you get to the end!

Thanks! ^^

It was dark out, and I was snoozing with Angela right next to me. I just couldn't shake off this nagging feeling that Isabelle was gonna give me a hard time the next day. I needed help, I knew I needed protection.

In the middle of the night, I woke up to see Angela gone! I destroyed my room looking for her, but she was nowhere to be found. I put my shoes and jacket on and went outside. I had an idea of where she might be.

I went to Isabelle's house because I had a feeling she took Angela away to get back at me. I got into the house through the window, and I went upstairs to her room. I found papers everywhere that said "She got what she deserved..." and Isabelle was gone.

Isabelle's P.O.V
I opened my eyes and realized I was in school, and it was nighttime. I had no clue about what went down earlier. I picked myself up and started wandering the dim corridors trying to find a way out since I couldn't see anything.

When I reached the second corridor, I spotted someone, but I couldn't make out their features since it was dark. They seemed to be a girl, and it looked like she was looking at me. "Hello? Who are you?" I asked. She moved off to the right, humming this tune under her breath: "Ding, dong I know you can hear me...."

I chose to follow her, but she vanished when I got to her. I was left puzzled and intrigued. Next, I heard someone shouting my name. "Isabelle...." They said. They seemed ticked off. "Who's there!?" I barked out. "If this is some kind of joke then I swear..." I just kept strolling through the corridor without stopping. The voice just got louder and more intense with each step I took down the hallway.

When I got to the second floor, I saw the same girl again. "Hey! Why are you doing this to me!?" What's your fucking problem!?" I yelled. She didn't say anything, but instead, her bones started cracking, and she got taller and more monstrous! I was paralyzed with fear and started running.

I got out of the school and ran back home. When I got inside, I locked the door. My heart started racing and I was anxious. When I went to the living room, I heard someone knock on the door. That's when I knew, it was her.

Angela's P.O.V
"Ding dong, I know you can hear me, open up the door, I only want to play a little."
"Ding dong, you can't keep me waiting, it's already too late, for you to try and run away!"
"I see you through the window, our eyes are locked together, I can sense your horror, though I like to see it closer!"
"Ding dong, here I come to find you! Hurry up and run! Let's play a little game and have fun!"
"Ding dong, where is it you've gone to? Do you think you've won? Our game of hide and seek has just begun!"
"I hear your footsteps, thumping loudly through the hallways, I can hear your sharp breaths, you're not very good at hiding!"
"Just wait you can't hide from me! (I'm coming)
Just wait you can't hide from me! (I'm coming)
Just wait you can't hide from me! (I'm coming)
Just wait you can't hide from me!"
"Knock, knock, I am at your door now! I am coming in! No need for me to ask permission!"
"Knock, knock, I'm inside your room now! Where is it you've hid? Our game of hide and seek's about to end!"
"I'm coming closer! Looking underneath your bed, but you're not there I wonder?" Could you be inside the closet?"
"Ding dong I have found you!"
"Ding dong, you are hiding here! (Now you're it!)
"Ding dong, finally found you dear! (Now you're it!)
"Ding dong looks like I have won! (Now you're it!)
"Ding dong, pay the consequence!"                      

Back to Lily's P.O.V
I quit searching for Angela and started making my way back home. I jumped up to my window and, what do you know, there was Angela, just hanging out on my bed! I honestly have no idea what happened, but boy, was I happy to see her.
