The Super Four

Chapter 11: Emma

Emma woke up with a start, sitting up on her bed. She rubbed her temples, feeling a headache pounding at the back of her skull.

Her mind was hazy and her vision was blurring. Looking around with a confused expression, she saw that her friends were all safely in bed.

Yawning, she felt her eyes droop until she fell back into her dream world, forgetting the bad feeling in the pit of her stomach.

When Emma woke up again around eleven, she couldn't help but feel that there was something... Missing.

Getting up from the bed, she realized that Jessica was out of the room, probably seeking some alone time.

Alice was still asleep, but Olivia was stirring in her bed. Olivia looked peaceful before she jumped up and started to run to the window, quickly opening it up and leaning outside.

"What?!?" Emma yelled, feeling startled by her outburst.

Still breathing hard, Olivia continued to stare out the window, ignoring Emma.

It's okay, he wasn't really here. It's fine, calm down Olivia. Don't be ridiculous. You're fine, he's fine, they're fine. Olivia's thoughts rambled.

Emma approached her carefully, slowly putting a hand down on her shoulder.

Olivia flinched at the touch, but didn't say anything. Instead, she took a deep breath and turned around to face Emma with a big smile on her face.

"Yes, Emma?" Olivia questioned with a strained smile.

"Are you okay?" Emma asked her back, knowing she wasn't.

"Yup, I'm fine! We should get ready to eat soon. We missed breakfast and I don't want to miss lunch too!" Olivia replied cheerfully, turning around to get into the dresser.

"Oh! So many things to wear! What do I choose?" Olivia asked herself out loud.

It's not like they had very many outfits anyways, and Olivia was just making a big show about choosing one of her three uncoordinated outfits.

Emma just stood and watched, blocking out Olivia's panicked thoughts until she finally ran out of the room, presumably for some fresh air.

During all of this, Alice had been woken up, and was currently sitting on her bed with a worried expression.

"I'm going to get her," Alice sighs, quickly brushing her hair and putting it up into a bun.

After she left the room, Emma sat on a wooden chair by the dresser to think. Now that all the crazy Olivia drama was over, she started to feel sick.

There was nothing wrong with the room but unmade beds, yet Emma started to feel suffocated, like someone was watching her.

When the bell rang for lunch the other girls still hadn't gotten back, so Emma decided to go to the lunchroom without them.

Walking down the hallway, everything was too quiet for Emma's liking and she started to feel uneasy as she opened the door slowly to get into the dining room.

She gasped when she saw the destruction of the room, tables over-turned, food splattered everywhere, and maybe one hindered pairs of eyes staring in complete and utter shock at her.

"Why would you do this?" Someone shouts after a few seconds of awkward silence.

Then everyone started screaming at her and running towards her with forks and knifes raised.

Emma stood in shock before running out of the room quickly.

She was very close to her room, to safety, but a few kids grabbed the hood on her sweatshirt, pulling her back into the crowd.

Pushing Emma to the ground with a thump, some kids raised their legs up to kick her.

Emma covered her head with her arms and rolled up into a ball to protect her stomach, bracing herself for impact.

When it didn't come, all she saw was a furious headmaster staring down at her. The crowd in the hallway was full of shocked kids and snickering kids, all staring her down.

The headmaster grabbed her by the hair harshly and yanked her up. A few kids laughed, but the headmaster silenced them with a glare.

Then, she pulled Emma into the office and slammed the door behind her.

Emma was shaking when she sat down into the chair, feeling her heart beat race.

"Just what do you think you're doing?" The headmaster growls.

"I-" Emma whimpered.

"No! You destroyed my orphanage! This behavior will not be tolerated!" She bellowed.

"P-please headmaster, I s-swear I didn't do anything!" Emma pleaded shakily.

"You will be out of here by tomorrow morning. There has to be a foster family that will take you," The headmaster said, mostly to herself.

Emma stared in disbelief, wondering what to do.
