My Undead Servant

A thunder before the storm

I know I'm dreaming but it seemed too real. I was in the middle of battle in a forest I had never seen.everyone was using medieval weapons and wearing armour and some were casting spells and using magic. I ran out of the forest to an open field "why do I know those things?" I thought . Suddenly,a giant dragon flew over me and started spewing fire across rows of armoured soldiers who I assumed were knights.

I was about to turn around and run back into the forest but that wasn't going to happen because the people who used magic ran out of the forest towards the army of knights with all kinds of spells ready. The knights also started charging on horses and I was right in the centre between the two forces.

right before they clashed, I woke up on the floor next to my bed.

"this is not a good way to start my day..." I said while rubbing my head.I got up and picked up my phone from my study table and looked at the time." I'm screwed". I laughed sarcastically since I was late for school.

"I'm late,I'm late,I'm late" I kept repeating this chant until I changed into my uniform and walked out of my room with my school bag in tow.I walked into the kitchen cautiously"oh... thank god" my mom was not there to ask why I was still at home. My dad was out of the country for a few months due to business.

Grabbing an energy bar from the cupboard "this'll have to do" I ran out of the house and went to school.

You see,my school starts at 7.20 A.M. when I stepped outside the house it was 7.10 A.M. From my house to school requires 20 minutes to travel.Now you know why I'm panicking and running for dear life. Anyway back to the story.

I arrived in front of the school gate at precisely one minute after the bell rang. The gate was closed shut.Gripping the gate with my knees on the ground I said with my head down"god,do you really hate me that much?can I ask for at least a bit of mercy?"

A girl holding a suitcase walks up to me wearing a long black skirt and a blue long sleeved top. With black hair that reached her waist and was about my age."what's wrong?" she asked. I told her about my predicament while still looking at the ground she just simply laughed and I mean really laugh.

It made me even feel worse.That girl stopped laughing and wiping tears of her face she said "well that was funny.Okay, so thats all huh? well I can help with that." I heard her fingers snapped and I closed my eyes as I was consumed by a white light and I opened my eyes again to see that I was in the hallway in school facing my class.

I stood up with my whole body shaking and entered class.I believed my brain short circuited and tried to rewire itself cause I forgot how to speak for a few seconds.

I opened the door to the class and everyone was studying like usual.The teacher in front was Mr Alcott who teaches math." Oh Mr. Wicker, where did you go? nevermind just take a seat" and I did just that right next to the window on the fourth row.I know, what just happened was obviously strange and it kinda freak me out.

This incident happened a few days before my 16th birthday but trust me.For me, the worst had yet to come and it had something to do with that girl earlier.
