My Grandma Is A Demigod

I: My New Life

I trudged out the rusty door of my small house to school. Im in no rush to get to school. My sixth grade is about of a bore as it gets. The only reason why I don't skip school all together is that it's the only time I see my best friend, Jacob.

I'm actually a little... The tiniest... Excited for today. I know, I know! It's crazy, but not for school. Today is "grandparent day" or whatever. I never really knew Jacob's family. He always seems to keep it a secret... Though I don't know why, I'm more curious every day either way.

I had put on a nice red dress with white lace outlines. A white headband pulled back my long brown hair. My blue and brown rimmed glasses brought out my brown eyes. I didn't necessarily want to, but I put on the lightest layer of make-up and thin, clear and sparkly lip gloss. My white heeled shoes were not the best choice, I could barely walk, though they were pretty. I wanted to impress my grandma and also maybe Jacob's grandparents too, I thought with a smile. Even though I may have went too far...

The bus picked the small group of kids up and dropped us off at West Colsen, our school.
I almost skipped inside those doors I used to hate. Yup, that's how excited I am!
"JACOB!!" I scream at my bestie and laugh as I throw my arms around him.
"Is your grandparents here today?!" I ask him.

I notice that Jacob looks uncomfortable. "No," he says.

"Oh," I reply, clearly disappointed.

"And neither is yours right?" Jacob asks sounding hopeful.

"Wha-no! Of course my grandma is here! What do you mean?" I question Jacob, confused.

All Jacob does is run away.
"JACOB!? JACOB!" I yell, running after him. When no reply comes, I start to sprint, worried.
What is going on?! This is definitely NOT like him?!

I scream Jacob's name one last time. My speed slowly decreases as I run out of breath. I realise my heels are slowing me down and could break at any min-
"CRACK!" I hear. I fall to the ground, face first. My heels broke. Great, just great!

I feel blood trickling down my forehead, but I soon realise that falling to the ground because of a broken shoe is the least of my problems.

I turn around to face a black beast with red, beady eyes, growling at me, barring its sharp teeth.
"JACOB!!!" I hear, suddenly realising it came from me. It all just happened so fast. Too fast, for my taste.

The large, scary beast roars, and I can't move. I feel frozen in time. If only Jacob was here-or someone...

Just then, the last person I expected to show up and save me...
My grandma took out a spear out of thin air and slashed the beast's head off. It disappeared, leaving behind small flakes of dust.

"Hello, darling," my grandma reached out a hand and pulled me to my feet.
