Chapter 1
"One more step, come on, you can do it." I said, trying to reassure myself as I walked down the street.
"What if it happens again?"
"Stay calm, it only happens when you're agitated."
Yesterday at school was probably the worst day I have ever had, I don't even know what happened. One minute I was in History learning about Russia during WW2 then my teacher was telling me off for not doing my homework and I suddenly felt a burst of anger flood through me and without moving from my seat I managed to make a chair fly across the room and it hit my teacher. They took him to hospital and apparently he is in a coma.
I didn't want to go back there ever again, but I knew I had to. What else could I do?
As I turned the corner I saw the tall, black, iron gates. They looked taller today, more menacing, but that was probably because I was scared. I saw all my classmates and friends walking in like it was just another normal day and I wished it was, but it wasn't and it never would be ever again.
As I got closer people turned and stared at me, "I could just turn around and run back." I thought.
"No, it's too late now" I told myself.
So I walked on one step at a time. Forcing myself onwards. Forcing myself closer to those gates. The gates to hell, the worst nightmare I could possibly imagine, but I didn't have to imagine it. I was living it. And I was terrified.
As I walked through the gates I heard people whispering to each other under their breath:
"Oh look, the freak returned."
And
"Get back to your mental institute. Oh wait, you're too crazy for them so they sent you back."
And the worst one:
"Why don't you just kill yourself, no one wants you here."
But I kept walking, I sped up slowly, faster and faster until I was running, I ran across the car park towards the main building, sprinted through the doors, down the corridors until I reached the toilet, I rushed through the doors and locked myself in a cubicle, I couldn't go to class, it would just get worse.
Then the bell went for 1st lesson.
"Damn it, now the gates will be locked."
I had to find another way out...
