Dark Forces

He sold his soul to the dark forces in order to raise the dead. Little did he know you cannot bring back a lost soul. 

It was my first day at the new campus. Now it was time for me to get serious. I had had two years off with traveling, blogging and being not serious. I had just finished my room and had everything in order so now I had to go to class. I didn't know a single person around me but it was ok. A new start is never bad. We were put into study groups by the professor. I was put in a group of 5 and we all agreed to make the same subject, we wanted to save the world and forever change agriculture for both humans and animals. I was happy to be among people with the same interests as myself. A guy from another group kept starring at me. It was a cold and dark stare, I knew right away that he was not looking at me because he was attracted to me, it was something else and it was very creepy. At lunch break he went to me. I was all alone just reading some of the papers another girl from my group had written about animal agriculture and the impact it has on our environment. He sat down on the opposite side of me and gave me this cold dark stare. "Do you know what happens when you play God?" he asked me. I was very confused and did not say anything, what should I say anyway? "They are not suppose to come back. They are supposed to stay dead." I put my sandwich down and looked at him, "I'm sorry but I don't know what you are talking about?" I had goosebumps down my spine. "You want to wake the once you lost. You want to wake them. you cannot deny it. But they are suppose to stay dead." He was very creepy. "Sorry, but the last person I put in a grave was my great grandma. She was very old and sick from cancer. It was a blessing for her to pass away." I was annoyed by him now. "You are lying," he said. "Full of lies." He did not say anymore and neither did I. In fact I avoided him as much as possible through out the day. By the end of the day he looked at me again, "I'm sorry if I scared you, my name is Claus." He reached his hand out. I shook it, surprised to discover it was warm and nice. "I'm Lisa," was all I said. I did not want to talk about his strange subject. "See you tomorrow," he said with his dark voice and left. I went out to have dinner, fried vegetables and noodles. That is basically what a student can afford. I was reading a little bit in my agriculture book when I fell asleep. It had been a long day meeting new people, and getting new impressions. 

FIREALARM!

It all happened while I was still asleep. It was in the middle of the night and I ran outside only wearing my pajama. Luckily for me it was not as cold as it usually is in Denmark in September. I looked around but I could not see smoke or fire anywhere so it was just some stupid prank. Everyone around me gathered together and hugged one another to bring comfort. The firetrucks drove loudly towards the building with the invisible fire. Suddenly I saw a girl standing among some trees. She looked very sad with tears in her grey eyes, she was only wearing a tiny white dress and her long dark hair reminded me of Ariana Grande she also had the same kind of make-up on. I could see her sad eyes in the moonlight coming from the sky. I looked around but it did not seem like anyone else had noticed her. I walked in her direction and when I was close enough I asked, "what I you doing here? Are you looking for someone?" I had seen most people from the campus but never her. I was sure I'd seen her before but I could not recall where. She shook her head. "I'm looking for him," she pointed at Claus who was talking to one of the firemen. "Ok, well why not just talk to him then?" I could feel a cold breeze around me and I had a feeling it came from her but how? How long had she been out here in the autumn evening and starred at the building? Her eyes changed from the grey color to light blue like a blind person and her skin turned very pale, "he doesn't want me around. He says I do not belong among the living he says I have to go back to my grave." I was scared and could feel something crawl down my back, was it sweat? fear? No this was a sick nightmare it was not real. But the cold aura around her was very real. Her voice changed too it sounded like she was choking on soil, "leave before he comes for you. He takes your soul and leaves your body empty." Her hair began to fall off. I wanted to scream but I was paralyzed. I watch this girl fall apart when suddenly a hand was put on my shoulder. "The coast is clear it was false alarm." "She needs help!" I screamed and turned around. The big fireman looked at me and lifted an eyebrow, "who?" "Her! Right there!" I pointed in her direction but she was gone only her white dress was left on the ground. "You need some sleep young lady," he said with a soft voice, "it's about 3 am."
