PoV Bill
I felt my beating heart. It had stopped beating, but now?

Bumm bumm. Bumm bumm.

I opened my eyes. They had been blind, but now?

Light, colors, everything was back!

I had had been dead, but now I was alive.

Will had brought me back to life. How?!

Honestly, I was furious. He had this power hidden from me, from everyone!

He had us all fooled.

...the situation got explained, but the story my attackers told was different than what had happened.

I didn't say anything. Suddenly a loud yell parted the crowd and the old librarian came waddling towards my teacher. He whispered something. The teacher turned pale, nodded, then took the traumatized gang with him as he left. The crowd was shushed away by the old bookworm.

I fell to the ground again, still exhausted.

"What where you thinking?!", the librarian asked angrily.

"I'm sorry. I had to! He was dying!", my brother cried out.

"I could've handled that myself.", I groaned.

"You...you were almost dead!", Will sniffed.

"At leasts I would've died with honor! Saved by the weakest demon of all times...", I growled and finally got up. Then I quickly left.

PoV Will
"I need to go after him!", I sighed.

"Oh no, you don't kiddo. You're in great danger. You need to leave this dimension. Perform a complete jump, go to the realm of the dead. Hide there, until it's time to come back.", the librarian explained.

"Wait, how do I know when it's time?", I asked, starting to panic.

"I don't know. But you will. Now go to the woods, perform the jump. Please. I don't want to see them use you like a fucking object.", he said.

I saw fear in his eyes and pity. I ran.

When I reached the woods, I just sat down in my hiding spot. I went there almost every night, to talk to my ghosts. Now I just sat there and cried.

"Willi...", Isabella suddenly sighed. She was the ghost of a young demon woman that died a few thousand years ago.

"I don't want to leave!", I cried out.

"If you go back, they'll tear you to shreds. You have to come with us.", Esther, Isa's sister told me.

Suddenly a bunch of ghosts broke through the bushes.

"Quick! They're after you!", they shouted.

I could sense living souls close to me, so I ran deeper into the woods. While running I tried to get my spell to work. Once it did, I jumped.

PoV Chill

"I can't believe it. All this time...", I sighed.

"Yeah, it's crazy! I mean, how did we not notice!", Till huffed.

"Incredible.", Kill added.

Then we got our cake out of the oven.

Yeah, all this time we've been wondering why the recipe didn't work out, until we noticed that we akways used to little baking soda.

Suddenly the door of our home opened and we heard yelling.

We ran to the top of the stairs to listen.

"IT WAS NOT MY FAULT! WHY DO I GET BLAMED FOR THIS?!" , Bill shouted.

"YOU'RE THE ONE THAT ALMOST GOT HIMSELF KILLED OVER A FUCKING GIRL!", Dad yelled back.

"It. Was. NOT MY FAULT!", Bill replied.

"Even IF we ignored that, where is your brother?!", Mum cried out.

"Oh, SPARE ME! That weakling's probably going to crawl home in two hours or less!", Bill huffed.

I looked at Till, but he just shrugged.

'Someone's in trouble.' , Kill told me, telepathically.

I nodded.

Suddenly Bill came running up the stairs, past us. He glared at us angrily. Then he closed his bedroom door loudly.

Mum and Dad came after him.

"More cake for us.", Kill chuckled.
