The Demons Inside

1

The night was closing in, I could feel the tension as it hung in the air. There was a small cough. The crowd of people squished into one small room. It was school. It was 12 hours before the incident. The bell rang it was a screechy, rusted bell. It hurt my ears. Chatting filled the moldy hallways. The flood of people carried me out the door. "Aria stay." My teacher- Miss Lemington- said. Her name was right. Miss Lemington was sour. "Yes... yes Miss." She had trouble for me today. I just knew it. "We think you might have learned something... unspecified. Any thoughts?" Oh, no she knew. "I... I don't know what you're talking about." "No? Hmm... ok then. Leave!" she didn't believe me for a second this is just one of her mind tricks. I acted cool, like nothing ever happened. "But, then how come I found this?" she held up my letter to my mother. "'Dear Mother. This school is horrid and the teachers are worse. I know I sound like a little kid but I really mean this the teachers are demons!! Please take me out of this horrible school! They use these thick metal rulers to spank us on our hands. Please, please, please come back! I swear they are DEMONS!' so then any thoughts now?"
