THE SPAWN OF THE GRIM REAPER

Chapter 7: Crash

——Catherine's POV——

A couple of weeks have past and I've found myself in my first track competition. Shania, Diana, a new friend Luna and I were part of the girls starting team. We have another friend in the second team for the girls. We're all fast so it really wasn't a big surprise. We had matching uniforms and our last names on our tags.

They called our school name for the girls section and we walked out like a boss. We did a squad pose and the whole stadium went wild.

Diana and I were doing the same pose on the opposite side of each other. I straightened my hair but you could still see my highlights. My new Nike shoes were so comfy. After the roll calls we all went our separate ways. Diana and I did track. Shania did long jump and Luna did pole jump. The first event was long jump. We cheered for Shania on the sidelines when it was her time to go. The boys and the girls do the same activity but separated. Shania sprinted then flew into the air.

"SHANIA FELIX. 6.95 METERS. LONG JUMP. CASPER HIGH SCHOOL!" The announcer said in the mircophone and Shania jumped in glee as she won. She ran towards us and hugged us. Next was pole jump. Luna and I met at the party. We kicked it off pretty well and found out she was in track as well so we made her a member of our group. She works hard on her form and technique.

When I saw like that I was so scared for her. I know that I can never in my life try that. You know without my full Grim ability's. She flew over the pole and land on a mat. She may have come in second but only by one point.

I was in my lane in my first position. I took a deep breath in and out.

BANG

I ran towards the finish line trying to hide my full ability. I won the 100 meter dash in flying colors. The best part was that their were scouts in the crowd as well. Diana and I did 800 relay and won first place. Our school won over all for girls but the boys came in fourth place.

I wanted to comfort the boys team but the death glare I received from Gonzo was so horrifying that it sent shivers down my spine. A Grim who's purpose in life is to collect souls getting fucking shivers. From a teenage man.

We hopped into my whip and drove to my house so we could celebrate. My family left before me to go and get things set up. I was the only one in the front and everyone else was in the back. We all sang to our favorite song by Cardi B.

"LEFT THE NIGGA ON READ CUS I FELT LIKE IT!" To be real with you we sound like a group of howling dogs.

I stopped at a red light when a car came at full speed towards us. At the last second I reversed the car to protect my friends. The car was flown in the air. All I could hear was my friends screaming. I fell unconscious but was still awake.

I saw me sitting down on a throne. I had blue eyes, pale skin my curly hair reached the floor. I was watching the whole event in slow motion.

"So what now?" The other me was smiling at me.

"Who are you? Can you please help me to protect my friends!?" I was panicking as I saw Shania's head knock the roof of the car.

"I can but all you need to know is that i will no longer have control when you are badly damaged."

"Ok OK PLEASE HELP ME!"

I woke out of my unconsciousness but was still in my double ganger's zone. I watched how a grey fog engulfed my friends and stopped them in mid air while my body was thrown around the car like a rag doll. I could hear my own bone cracking at the amount of force placed on it. I was in control of my body again and fell back unconscious when my head slammed against my window's glass.

"W....here...a..m..I...?" I opened my eyes but immediately closed them as a bright light made contact with my eyes. My vision went blurry and took a while to adjust. A familiar of cold hands grasped my hand. My mom shot her head up when I spoke out.

"SHE'S ALIVE!! MY BABY!!" She uncontrollably screamed and a large group of people, mostly my family and friends. A doctor came in with a nurse who was now fiddling with the numerous tubes connected with my skin.

"How are you feeling Miss. Grim?"
The doctor clicked his pen on his clipboard.

"I'm in pain.." I said it like it was obvious already. He wrote it down then place his clipboard on a table.

"You are very lucky you survived Miss.Grim. You suffered from multiple broken ribs, fractured skull, glass imbedded into your legs and a broken arm. We placed you under some pain killers to weaken your pain but it seems as if they won't do much." My eyes flew open at the amount of damage my body took.

I turned to see a crying Charles in my crying Christopher arms. My dad's red puffy eyes were clearly visible. The doctor continued.

"After a two month coma your healing quite rapidly." This time my family's eyes shot opened. We can't let anyone know about us.

I requested my mom to take a picture of me and my friends together. She took her camera and aimed it at us.

Two months.

My birthday. Whelp happy birthday to me huh. I grabbed my dad's shirt and asked him about my birthday.

"It's tomorrow. I bet you thought it passed huh?"

I shook my head.

I did.
