A continuous wave of strange images kept racing across my mind that I have no control over. It always shows me the same thing over and over again and nothing more. A creepy man takes me away from the doctor, I'm in an elevator with two other people heading up an unfamiliar building, the odd man places me in a full human-sized silver box that gives a blinding shine of light and he closes it with me inside, and after an aura-like glow shines brightly making my body feel so cold and then blank, nothing else happens, but those repeating images.

"But why? Are they just images or are they my memories from when I was a baby?" I thought out loud.

"What memories and images?" Karolina asked in a cheerful voice, as she walked closer to me.

I hadn't realized I'd spoke my thoughts out loud. How embarrassing,I thought to myself, this time, making sure I didn't speak what I thought.

"Is everything alright?" Karolina asked me as she sat down beside me on the bench."I-...um, yea I'm doing just fine" I said with a fake smile, hoping she bought ,at least, some of it.

"Rae, you know you can tell me anything. I won't judge you and I mean that. So, please tell me what's wrong" I do trust Karolina with everything pretty much, but I'm not so sure about this one though. The little Angel and little Devil on my shoulders battled with each other to make a decision. "Everything is fine Karolina, really it is" I said simply with a faint smile. The devil, I guess, won this round. But, I could tell you now, I am NOT fine.

The bell rings loudly in the hallway and in less than 2 freaking seconds, the silent and peaceful hallway was interrupted by a stampede of High School students heading up and down the stairs. How did they do that? Not be here and then a second later, crowd the halls? I turned towards Karolina, but she was gone. Did the stampede run over her? What kind of sorcery is-"Raaaaaeeeee" Someone taunted with a very perky and intimidating voice, sadly I knew who IT was. I turn around sluggishly and crossed my arms, I just looked at her with a glare. What does she possibly want now? I thought, as I watched her drink what ever it was in her cup.

"Bonjour! Bonjour!" Eiffel said with a slight grin, that I wanted to slap off of her face. "Yes,Eiffel?" I asked her in a sarcastically cheerful tone."I was wondering if
you could try this totally amazing strawberry smoothie" Eiffel replied strangely, she didn't have some witty or mean comeback to my sarcasm, for once, this is very weird and unexpected.

"Sure I guess, but why are you-" Before I even finished my sentence, Eiffel dumped the strawberry smoothie onto my hair, which went down to my clothes. I gasped in surprise and anger, "You bitch!" I yelled, breathing heavily. As Eiffel and her cliques continued to laugh at me, I glared directly at Eiffel, death staring at her sunglasses, which covered her eyes. For a quick second, as I looked in her sunglasses, I could see my reflection through them and noticed that my eyes changed from dark brown to a light blue and quickly back.

"What the hell?" I said as I rapidly blinked my strawberry flavored eyes. What was that? I though to myself, as I glanced around the hallway to see if anyone else saw my eyes change too.It's happening again!Why here? And why now?
