We'll Protect You

Chapter 8

-Next Day-

"Good morning Mr.Fong!" Ahri and Lux giggled, while I stood next to him and they gave me an ugly look, and then I walked off towards my locker.

"Bitch." They both said in my head and I laughed.

"Don't Amanda." Evan said in my head and I rolled my eyes.

"What? I'm not going to do anything." I said back to him and then opened my locker.

"Good morning Amanda." I looked up and it was Craig. "How you feeling?" He asked me.

"Okay, I guess." I tell him and he puts his hand on my shoulder. "I still feel a bit uncomfortable with these powers." I said.

"That's how we all felt, but we got use to them within a few days, so I'm sure you'll be fine." He tell me and I smiled a bit.

"Good morning Mr.Thompson!" I looked over his shoulder and rolled my eyes, so I grabbed my notebooks and closed my locker, while I shrugged Craig's hand off my shoulder, and walked off.

"That's right bitch. He's mine." Ahri said and I smirked, while heading to class, but before I turned the corner.

"I don't know what to do Marcel." I hear Tyler and peaked around the corner a little bit. "I want to tell Evan on how I feel about her, but I don't want to cause any harm to her. Not again." He said and Marcel puts his hand on his shoulder.

"You need to tell him or it's going to bother you." Marcel tell him and he sighs. I took a deep breath and walked passed them, without even looking at them, and I knew they were staring at me.

-Skip To Lunch-

"Amanda? Can I have a word with you?" Evan asked me and I nod, so I followed right behind him, and we went into his office. I sat down on the chair and he stood right in front of me, while leaning against his desk, and I looked up at him.

"What did you want to talk to me about?" I asked him and he looks at me.

"Tyler told me something and I don't know how I feel about it." He said and I knew what he was talking about, but I wanted to hear it from him.

"Okay." I said and he sighs.

"Even though we're best friends, I can't allow it here." He starts and my heart was racing a little bit, so he took a deep breath and looked away from me. "He's in love with you." He said and my eyes widen. I was speechless and didn't know what to say, so I just get up from the chair and walked out of the room. "There's something else that I need to talk to you about, but it's going have to wait until we get home." He said in my head.

"Hello Gonzales." I looked up and it was Ahri, but something was moving behind her, so I looked down and it was a tail? Then I get grabbed from behind and punched in the stomach, while I fell to my knees and she laughed. "There's plenty more where those came from, so you better watch your back." She warned me and then kicked me in the head, while I fell face first on the floor, and see them walk away.

"I see you have your hands full?" A familiar voice said and it was the same voice from yesterday.

"Who are you?" I asked him and he chuckled deeply, while I get up from the floor, and saw blood on the floor. I wiped the side of my head with my hand and saw that it was bleeding. "Mother fucker." I said and sigh.

"Like I said, meet me in the forest, and I'll tell who I am." He said and I made my way to my next class.

|Time Lapse| (Music Class)

"Alright! Today, each and everyone of you will sing a song, and we're going to grade on how you do." Evan explained and then looks straight at me. "You're going first Amanda." He said in a serious tone and then hands me a piece of paper, so I take it from and looked at it, and it was lyrics to a song.

"I hope you choke." Ahri laughed and I looked up at Evan.

"Don't listen to her." He said in my head and I got up in front of the mic. "Also, I would like to mention, that we got a few new teachers, so please welcome Luke, Anthony, Scott, Bryce and Ohm." He introduced them and I looked behind me.

"Cartoonz!" Delirious shouts and high five him. "How you been bud?" He asked him.

"I've been good, but trying to survive." He laughed and then looked at me.

"Hey cutie." He said in my head and I looked back in front of me. "You're a feisty one, aren't you?" He asked me and I ignored him.

"Okay. Tyler, Craig, Jonathan and Luke? Take your positions and whenever you're ready Amanda." Evan said and I sigh.

I looked at the lyrics and my eyes widen, because they disappeared and I just threw the paper on the floor, and when I grabbed for the mic. It shocked me a little bit and I felt my throat burning.

*Music Starts*

The heart wants what the heart wants
When I'm standing on the edge, it's time to make a choice
The most repulsive one of all is if I fall, it's all my fault
The heart wants what the heart wants,
I know it isn't you

I was shocked, because I'm actually singing, and didn't want to believe it, so I shook my head and continued to sing, while Ahri just rolled her eyes.

Will you take this as a hint
I won't take shit from anyone
You pushed too hard, took this too far
Nothing's ever fair in love and war
Wipe that grin off your face

You'll always be a joker to me
Same old story, same routine
Now that I've seen the tricks up your sleeve, I'm not one for make believe
You use your illusions and hide what's inside
Save it for someone who buys your love
You'll always be a joker to me, but I'm not laughing anymore

Then I felt something itching on my back, but I shrugged it off and took the mic off the stand, and kept on singing.

Well, I can't say it's been a pleasure just a pain and quite a mess
I'm no damsel in distress, a weight off my chest
I can breathe without your hands around my neck
You're mistaken if you ever think you'll make another fool out of me! How pathetic can you be?
Smile at the crowd, take one last bow
The show's over! No one's laughing now

You'll always be a joker to me
Same old story, same routine
Now that I've seen the tricks up your sleeve, I'm not one for make believe
You use your illusions and hide what's inside
Save it for someone who buys your love
You'll always be a joker to me, but I'm not laughing anymore

I've got a couple tricks of my own, a few I still haven't shown
When I get you alone, now you see it now you don't!

My vision was getting red and I felt all this rage boil inside of me, so I looked at everyone and their eyes widen, and felt like I was going to pass out.

You've backed me in the corner for the last time I'm taking control (control)
Standing at the edge with your life in my hands and I let you fall!

You'll always be a joker to me
Same old story, same routine
Now that I've seen the tricks up your sleeve, I'm not one for make believe
You use your illusions and hide what's inside
Save it for someone who buys your love
You'll always be a joker to me, but I'm not laughing anymore

  It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt

*Music Stops*

My heart was racing and everyone was just staring at me, but when I looked behind me. The guys were also staring at me in shock, so I put the mic back on the stand and stormed out of the room, and I left my things behind. "Amanda?!" I hear Tyler called out to me, but I ignored him and just kept on running.
