You can't find me

Chapter 45

Third Person POV 

Everyone has huddled around the coffin of the deceased student that many loved or secretly hated. 

The parents of the girl and her siblings break out into sobs as they read their offerings and others put their heads down as a sign of respect. 

At least 100 hundred people had showed up. The funeral was in the town Angelica had grown up in and many teachers had come to pay their respects to her. 

Ian and his friends stood next to her family as they had already given their speeches. 

Coralie and Ry stand towards the back of the crowd with their long black mage coats to blend in with the student population. 

Coralie had her hair dyed a dark dirty blonde to cover up her hair as she stands with a fan to cover her face. 

Which is not abnormal as many people are doing so to hide their grief stricken faces. 

It's a dark gloomy afternoon with the clouds covering up the sun and the winter on standby. 

Once everyone has given their speeches the family decided to keep on open coffin so people are able to approach her coffin and quietly say whatever they want to, to Angelica.

Coralie looks at Ry and Ry shakes her head. Not giving her the approval to go to the front. 

Another girl approaches them and holds Coralie's arm to which she lets out a muffled shriek as the girl quickly covers her mouth. 

Ari reveals herself to the both of them who are equally shocked to see her here. 

"Guys keep it down. I'll explain everything to you later. But I need to go up to her." 

Ry looks at her as if she's crazy. 

"Hey, I know you appeared out of nowhere. But everyone's accusing Cora of this. We can't just bring her up front, to let everyone tear her up." 

Cora nods to that. 

"Unfortunately that is exactly what we have to do." Ari tells the both of them. 

"WHAT?" Ry questions a little too loudly and people look over to her. 

Ari presses the side of her temples. 

Ry grimaces.

"Sorry! What? How's that going to do anything? I don't think you know but Ian's like mad mad at her. We don't even know her." 

"She's not actually dead." Ari tells them. 

"Are you hearing yourself?!" they both exclaim to her. 

"Okay look. I talked to Zaniyah.."

"That fucking bitch. If I get my hands on her..." Ry starts to say. 

"Ry! Listen to what I'm saying. Zaniyah let her go from the rope because she was trying to see if she would actually die! The real Angelica was murdered a few years back. I just have to somehow get Cora to touch her hands. That will get rid of her act." 

"What the fuck? What do you mean murdered?" Coralie questions. 

"She found out a few things that she shouldn't have. I don't know what. So some girl came and replaced her. I don't know if her parents are in on it and how nobody was able to tell. Basically that girl in the coffin is not from this kingdom and a freaking witch. If you touch her Cora, she's gonna wake up because she apparently knew you. Don't ask how. Zaniyah made everyone hate on you so you wouldn't have to deal with this imposters minions but I guess they already got to you."
