I screamed and looked away from the horrible sight in front of me. "Ladies! Get Shelby back inside, please." My father said frantically. I was rushed inside and I ran up to my room. Shaking like a mad man who just came from a cold bath in the freezing weather.

I got ready with a yellow dress with white on the breasts and sleeves, with a matching hat, gloves, purse, and fan. That bloody sight never left my mind. I would stare into space, just thinking about the bloody sight. On our way to church, my father would have a worried look on his face. So did my mother. I sat on the left side of the carriage, so I was ridding backwards, while my parents sat on the right side of the carriage. "Darling. Are you ok? You seem more pale." My father asked me. My mother, then laid a hand on top of my hand that were placed on my lap neatly. I looked up, and smiled at both my father and mother. "Yes. Just a little shaken up from what happened earlier." My family and I arrived at church, and took our seats.

     I'm not a very talkative person. At all. I just sit sown quietly and just say nothing. Church then begins with long time hymns, and a long talk. I didn't really focus on the lesson for the week. But I felt as if someone was watching me. Not inside, but, as if someone was watching from afar. Far away from the church.

 After church, my family were talking to the priest, and a few friends. I only said "Hello" and just got quiet. After my parents caught up with literally everyone, we arrived back home. It was now turning to dusk, so, I got ready for bed. I bathed, and braided my hair, and jumped into bed. I'm exhausted. The moment I closed my eyes, there was a knock on my window. I got out of bed, and opened the curtains. I wasn't surprised to see that it was Zak. I opened the window and closed them. Zak was then pacing the floors frantically. I was very confused. "Zak, darling. What's wrong?" I asked him. He then stopped and looked at me dead in the eyes, ask held me, arm's length. "Shelby. My love tell me the truth. Did I came in this room a night ago?" Why would he be asking me this? "Yes. You turned into a demon in front of me." I said. Zak's eyes then went wide. He then panicked. "Shelby. You are in danger." Zak told me. "How!? Why?!" I asked horridly. "Because. That wasn't me. I was in London. That was a man who now wants to kill you."
