Vampire High

Chapter 3 : Disappearance

I woke up next morning and started getting ready to go to school. As usual after helping Lissa with her hair I made my way downstairs and towards the door.

Right as I opened it, something hard hit against my foot. I screamed in pain and looked at the brown paper box about the size of my carpet in anger. Who the hell would keep something like this here?

Wait was it my fashioncraze order? All my anger dried up as I picked up the box. Strange there was no stickers or anything. It was heavy and I had to call Lissato help me carry it to the dining table.

We decided to open it after school since there was only thirty more minutes.

After school the first thing I did was open the package. I couldn't wait to see my new top. However when I opened It up I was disappointed to see that it was something else.

"Books? Seriously? Do you think maybe we got the wrong package?" Lissa asked as she picked up book with red colour and golden designs on it. I further went through the package and stopped when my hands touched something soft and silky. I picked it up.

It was a bright red skirt with white lines at the bottom of it. I picked up what was next. A black jacket with gold design on the back of it around shoulder level. I looked in front of it and gasped.

"What is this??!" Lissa asked as she picked up a gold tie with white lines on them and a white shirt with long sleeves.

"Lissa look!" I pointed at the tiny badge which was embodied on the jackets left pocket.

"isn't that?" Lissa stuttured "wait I'll be right back." With that she disappeared upstairs and came back with my laptop.

She placed it on the side of the dining table and turned it around so that I could see the screen. It was the letter. The badge on it and the badge on the uniform was the exact same. Both has red roses and a shield with two knives pointing away from each other.

I felt fear jolt through my spine.

They were serious.

Who were these people. That was when me and Lissa decided to search up some information about the school on google.

"I can't seem to find it anywhere!" Lissa shrugged with a sigh as she leaned back on the chair.

"But how's that possible?!" I asked biting down on my nails.

"Maybe this is a prank!" I decided as I got up and shoved the uniform inside the box and started packing it all up.

Something fell off the table as I picked up the jacket. It was the bright red book Lissa had picked up from the box. It had ST. Valdimir written in an ancient design in golden on the cover.

I opened it up. It was blank. That made me even more furious. The pranker sure thought it was funny whoever it was. I slammed the book down the box and closed it.

Later that night , I was awakened by a loud thunder. I got up from my bed my breath heavy and my heart pounding against my chest.

The room was dark and rain splattered all over the window next to me. I turned on the tiny lamp at the side of my bed and brushed off the beads of sweat from my forehead. I had a horrible dream about someone chasing me.

Was Lissa awake? She probably was. She couldn't stand lightning and thunder.

I stood up and made my way to lissa's room. It was unlocked.

"Lissa? You okay?" I called opening the door. Silence and darkness greeted me. That's strange. Lissa never turns off the light all out. She was scared of the dark too. I groped the wall next to the door and found the switch. I turned it on and gasped as I stared back at the empty bedroom. Where was Lissa??

I made my way downstairs. A crack of thunder made me jump. Maybe Lissa had gone down to the kitchen.

However, the kitchen was empty.

I started getting scared and started running all around the house screaming Lissa's name despite the loud rain on the roof blocking my voice.

"LISSA!!" I screamed.

........................................................................................................................

Sunlight shone through my eyelashes and disturbed me from my sleep. Had I fallen asleep? Then I felt a strong throb of pain on the left side of my head. I groaned rubbing my head and got up. Yes that's right I had hit my head last night.

I slipped over something and fell down. I didn't blame myself for that, it was almost too dark to see a soul. I should've turned on the lights. The sun was out now, however the streets were filled with puddles of rain from last night. Our front yard was a mess form the tree branches and dirt here and there. I stood dazed outside the front porch for a second trying to remember what I was doing.

With sudden realization I quickly ran upstairs to Lissa's room. Lissa was still not there. Where had she been. My feet hit something and it rolled all the way down the bed. It was Lissa's phone. Now that had me panicked.

I looked all around and saw a white envelope placed on the pink covers of the bed. I picked it up with trembling hands.

I opened it up and took out a folded paper.

After opening it I gasped and dropped it on the ground.

On it with clean ancient handwriting it was written "We received your letter of denial. However we can't let you continue to attend your current school. We have done all the formalities of transfer from your current school. We were also informed that you will not be attending within your will so we have taken your friend for compensation. She will be released and allowed to live a normal human life like the others however you are to attend the school by today evening. We have sent someone to transport you safely here.Please be on your school attire"

I stood frozen my knees trembling. This was serious. This was no prank. But why was the school so badly after me. It was almost as if it was forcing me. I picked up my phone and tried calling Jennifer. But for some reason my phone was off and I couldn't open it. I tried Lissa's phone too but it was the same. I could feel the anxiety in my chest rising.
