The Void Of Life ( The prophecy )

Chapter 1 Before this all happened

I stared coldly at the white board, yawning not too loudly. My best friend, Louis, started to poke my arm with her pencil, while whispering my name, “Ares.. Ares!? Ares!” I woke up with a jolt.

 “It was just a dream,” I sighed. This is not the first time I have seen this dream. I turned over, questions running through my mind. My eyes widened as I looked at the clock. “I’m late for school you had to be kidding!?” I yelled at the top of my lungs, jumping out of bed. Still half asleep stretching, I slowly opened my closet just seeing the regular school uniform over and over again. Grabbing the one closest to me, running to the bathroom while putting it on. Quickly brushing my teeth and combing my long red curly hair, I realize I forgot my circular glasses. I stubble back into my room, snatching my glasses off the drawer. Before then running like the wind downstairs, sliding my glasses over my blue and green eyes. I snatch my school bag off the chair and grab a piece of bread stuffing it in my mouth. I walked out the door and slammed it behind me, as I ran off to school.

  The loud thump of my bags hitting the bottom of my locker, fills the then silent hallways. Looking at the clock knowing I'll be late, I strolled along the hallways to my class. Slowly walking to my desk, uncomfortable by everyone looking at me. Even the teacher, with her death stare. “Miss. Violet, please explain why you are late?” said Mrs. Rattlesnake with a cold glare. “I'm sorry ma’am,” I studdard. All the teacher did was sigh and looked back at the white board continuing her lesson. I smiled so slightly, happy I didn’t get detention. Louis just stared at me with raised eyebrows about to laugh, “You got off lucky.” She smirked. “Oh shut it,” I hissed looking back at her. Louis laughed some more, but then stopped and started to write in her book. Louis coped with her work with an anxious laugh, when Mrs.Rattlesnake looked at her with the signature cold stare. She abruptly looked up with a smile, “Out!” She spat at Louis. “Good job,” I mumbled to her with a wink. Louis winked back before walking out the door with one more laugh. “Now let's get back to our lesson, now that Louis is gone.”

 “She can’t talk but we have to be stuck listening to your ugly voice?!” I yelled out loudly, standing up kicking my chair back as it scratched the ground with a horrible hiss, like nails on a chalkboard. ''Miss. Violet, join your friend outside in the hall!” Mrs. Rattlesnake snapped at me, Her fisted clench almost breaking the marker in her hand. I ran out the door to see Louis grinning at me, Leaning against the wall. “I guess you couldn't help getting in trouble,” Louis said with the biggest smile. “What are you smiling at! I got in trouble so you wouldn’t be alone!’’ I snapped at Louis pointing my finger. “Aw come Ares, it's ok,” Louis said, pulling out her arms for a hug. “Louis,” I said coldly. Without Louis answering me The five girly girls (Lilly, Holly, Poppy, Rose and Isabelle) were standing at the door. With their hands on their hips and smirks on their faces, sometimes I just want to punch them. ''What!?” I spat at them. Isabelle, their leader smirked. “Wow. Look who is in trouble,” She said with a twisted smile as she started giggling. Her followers giggled after her and repeated what she said to each other, yes how “intimidating”. Louis grabbed my shoulder as I went to punch her. “Oh great it's the girly girls,” Louis said with a smirk on her curly lips. “Ugh!” I said, then I rolled my eyes. The girly girls walk away, in annoyance I stick out my tonge and roll my eyes.

The teacher meets us outside the door and tells us we have detention after school, like I care. I walk to my locker, seeing the girly girls doing Tiktoks in the washrooms. “Can I please punch them!?” I mumbled to Louis. Louis shook her head and sighed. “I want to as well, But you know we can’t,”  Louis said to me seriously, not smiling this time. I slammed my locker shut and walked away getting ready for the next class. 

When the bell rang for the end of the day, I stared at the door to detention then walked inside to see two goth looking kids and Louis.

 I sighed and groaned sitting down, throwing my bag beside me. The music in my headphones slowly drifted me into a deep slumber..

I slowly opened my eyes and looked around. ”Louis-?” I whispered, taking off my headphones. I turned around to see Louis choking one of the Kids. ”Louis!” I yelled standing up from out of my seat. Louis looked up, “They attacked me first!” She screamed, holding the kid tighter, shaking his body. I ran over to Louis and tried to loosen her grip, but another kid came out of nowhere and grabbed me by the collar of my shirt. I turned around and scratched him as hard as I could. The guy let go of me, holding his cut hand close to his chest. while the guy's hand was bleeding, I looked at Louis strangling the kid to death. “Louis!” I screamed in her ear, Louis then let go of the kid. “What happened!?” I snapped, as Louis got up off the floor. “I just said, they attacked me first!” She snapped back, whipping the dust off her pants. I sighed and picked up the kid, who was getting choked, By the collar of his shirt. ”Why were you attacking!?” I spat in his face. He whimpered, So I dropped him to the ground again. I glanced back at Louis, then back at the kids. “Let's just go home… AND STAY OUT OF MY SIGHT!” I snapped one more time before grabbing my bag and walking out the door.
