The bell rings and currently its time for the students to have lunch. Sarah doesn't feel hungry though even if she didn't finish her breakfast. Instead she just sits under a huge oak tree in the school yard and draws the animals around her. She finds drawing an escape from reality. An escape from her endless grief. However, her drawings aren't the same as before. Sarah used to draw normal animals, but ever since she saw Sally's body, she has started drawing her animals differently. She stated drawing them dead. They now look more like road kill then living animals. Just like how Sally looked like a ghost, blood stained hair and clothes and skin paler then healthy. You could barely recognise her. Even though Sarah's drawing arent very pleasant, She feels its the best way to help her cope.
Normally, out here in the school yard its usually very quiet and she doesn't get disturbed by anyone. But today is different.
Unknown: What are you drawing Sarah?
Sarah looks up to find a blonde girl towering over her. This is her friend Leah, or ex friend. They used to be best friends but they separated 2 years ago. Leah said she would rather be friends with a group of others girls then someone boring like Sarah. What a great friend she is. Leah only started talking to Sarah again when Sally died. Obviously out of pity. Or maybe she wanted something again?
Sarah covers up her drawing with her hand. Sarah doesn't feel comfortable showing her drawing to someone who betrayed her. Especially since her drawing would freak people out.
Sarah: its nothing just the usual stuff
Leah starts laughing and sits down besides Sarah. She has a soft kind look in her eyes. But that's the danger about Leah, She is extremely deceiving. She may look kind and comforting, but under the skin, its all an act. Probably for popularity since that's all Leah cares about right now. It's probably all she has ever cared about.
Leah: Don't be so shy Sarah you're really good at drawing
Sarah can't help but feel happy to hear someone compliment her the way Leah did. But Sarah's happiness is short lived. Leah hurt her. More then once more then twice. How can Sarah trust her again.
Sarah: I don't want to show you I haven't even finished yet
Leah's face darkens. She really is a demon under the skin. Leah doesn't like it when people say no to her. In a way, Leah acts so spoilt. However, this time she just gets up and leaves. Sarah sits back and continues drawing. What just happened seemed pretty strange. It seemed strange how Leah didn't yell at her or threaten her to get her own way. Sarah just let her suspicion go, thinking that maybe Leah has finally got the message that Sarah doesn't want to be around her. But Sarah was wrong.
As Sarah entered the classroom, the bell that meant that class was starting had just rang. Sarah sat at the back if the class behind Leah, which is unfortunate since Leah constantly gets her in trouble. Apparently by accident. At least, Sarah can draw her gory art at the back of the class, besides its only Geography.
Half way through the class, Leah turns around to face Sarah. Thankfully, Sarah manages to hide her drawing before Leah saw it. This was odd, what did Leah want now?
Leah: hey Sarah are you drawing the same picture again?
Sarah doesn't want to answer so she just keeps silent. This pisses Leah off.
Leah: Don't ignore me Sarah I didn't do anything wrong.
Sarah doesn't exactly believe Leah since she has done (and still is doing) a lot of bad things. But Sarah isn't the type of person to confront people. She's too mentally tired to be bothered.
Leah suddenly pushes Sarah back against her seat, which causes her to fall back and land on the floor. While on the floor, Leah grabs Sarah's drawing and shows it to the whole class.
Leah: OMG Sarah what the hell is this you freak!
The whole class turns to look at Leah and Sarah. This must of been why Leah didn't react earlier, she was waiting for the right moment to strike. People in the class start laughing and one of the boys even kicked Sarah and joined in. Then the whole class joins in to create a chant. The teacher finally heard all the noise and rushes in immediately.
Teacher: what is going on in here!
The other danger about Leah; she is amazing at twisting her words. She walks up to the teacher and shows her the drawing, explaining how it showed extreme violence and that she was concerned about why Sarah would draw such a thing. She made out she was innocent. She always does.
Teacher: Sarah what do you have to say about this.
For a moment Sarah stands up and just looks at the floor blankly. Suddenly, Sarah's vision becomes blurred and the only colour she can see is red. Everything looked red.
Sarah clenched her fists and looked coldly at Leah.Hit her
Hit her!
HIT HER!
HIT HER!
Within seconds she ran up to her, and punched her in the face.
Everyone stands back in shock and the teacher rushes over to Leah. The scared expression on her face indicated that Leah was about to piss herself. Sarah staggered back and suddenly realised what she was doing. Leah's blood stained her fist.
What did i just do...
The right thing...No this is wrong!
Does it even matter?Of course it does!
Well let me tell you something...IT DOESNT MATTER TO ME! YOU ARE ME AND I AM YOU!
Sarah's eyes started to water as she barged past all of her other classmates and ran out of the school. Sarah didn't know where she was running. All she knew was that no matter how far she ran or how fast she ran, she couldn't escape the demon that lurks behind her.
