Punk Angel and Shy Demon

Chapter 5

After lunch I headed to the lab with Clare and Sara. On the way Sara told me that she had to record a video for Monstube today, and that she would leave halfway through, but Clare would fill in what she missed later. Sara also added that she would be recording in her room and wanted me to come get her for dinner. Sara and I have gotten very close lately and i'm pretty sure she was asking me not only for this reason but because apparently Clare had a thing about entering without knocking as far as I heard during lunch at least. I giggled at this thought and Clare just rolled her eyes playfully. Clare at this point knew I had a huge crush on Sara and was shipping us already. Anyways, when we got to the lab, the first thing I noticed was that the box that is usually on the table was missing. I was very concerned at this, so to be on the safe side I decided to ask, where's the box? Clare answered, it's in my office which also has a secret entrance that connects to the lab. Don't worry about it. I felt relieved and I was then seated in the chair from the last time I was here. On the desk where pictures of the box and the symbols. The thing I noticed was that there were six pics with all sides, including the top and bottom, having some kind of writing. Sara handed me a paper and pencil and said to write down what I saw. Then Sara and Clare went to work on something else so that they wouldn't interrupt my concentration. If only we had known that interrupting me was important. At this point my brain started to get letters. The only thing is that there was only one full word I could make out on one of the pics. It was the side my brain tried to decipher yesterday. The side was facing us yesterday. The word was War. After I wrote that down, The word disappeared and I couldn't decipher anything else. This disappointed me greatly. Just then I felt a light tap on my shoulder that made me jump. I spun the chair around fast to see Sara looking concerned. Sara then said, You were just staring at that pic for Hours that it became dinner time when Clare noticed it. Clare got me and said she couldn't get you to look at her. She then saw the paper and said, You only wrote one word, but that's fine. Its progress at the least, We probably have to set a timer for you though. I'm not sure how it would affect you but we still need you to be alert or at least half alert at times. I was just confused but I felt super exhausted at the same time. I then started to get dizzy and nauseous as I tried to stand up. The next thing I knew was falling into someone's arms. I passed out after that.

While I was passed out, I had another dream or at least pieces of one. It was all black no matter where I looked and I could only hear a woman's voice, a voice that felt motherly and familiar. She said don't tell him, don't wright ... ...., .... lies, he wants ...... ...... ......... , don't let him, find C....... and S...., they are the ones that you can trust. Remember .... War ...... It is import..... The dream ended when I shouted at the voice who do I find.

I woke up in my room with Clare next to me. She was dabbing my forehead with a damp cloth. She then noticed that I had woken up. Good your finally awake she said as she put her head on my forehead. And your fever finally cracked. Don't worry us like that Kat, Clare said smacking my arm lightly. She seemed really worried. How... long... was I... out I ask. My voice was very dry and scratchy that my voice was cutting out at points. You were out for a few days someone said to my rights side. I turn my head to see that the person that had spoken just now was Sara. She was holding my hand and it felt nice. I tried to sit up but Sara pushed me down again. Your still very weak, we had to get the tracker off you just so you wouldn't... she cut off almost in tears. Sara started to calm down again and Clare left the room, seeming like she wanted to give us space. After Sara had calmed down she said, never worry me like that again it was hell wondering if you would... she took a breath and then said something that I wanted to hear for longer then I even knew. I love you, don't ever scare me like that again Sara said almost in tears again. I didn't care how weak I was I sat up fast and pulled her into a kiss before she could do or say anything else. We both at this point knew that the other was the one they wanted to be with forever. The kiss was long and passionate, but it was sadly interrupted by the door opening with a big bang. We both pulled away, blushing, and turned towards the door. Jack, John, and Clare had been spying on us. The only reason we even found out, was that the big bang from them leaning on the door heavily and the door had apparently not been closed properly. They were toppled over, but quickly got up. Clare had been on top of the two boys. John looked embarrassed and was trying to quickly leave but Sara went to the door and blocked the door so no one could leave. What were you doing, Sara said a little annoyed. I was still in utter shock until I heard Jack shout, Finally You did it, took ya long enough. I just laughed a laugh I never knew I could. Jack turned to me and said, What's so funny. Before I could answer Clare spoke up, I thought you were straight Sara, but apparently not. Yeah I'm gay, she says rubbing  the back of her head with a pleased smile. Anyways I saw the boys sneaking towards the door so I let them and also listened in, Clare said looking pleased. Well that's not important right now I need the two boys and Sara to come with me. Kat just rest for now. At this they all left so I could rest.

A few days later I was helping them out again. Jack had taught how to use a sword, which I loved, a knife, how to block without a shield and how to dodge mid attack. I also started getting some more words from the box. Sara and Clare set timers so I wouldn't over work myself again on accident. The words I had gotten so far were war, monster, human, twins, museum. This didn't make a sentence yet but at least we knew where to start. Today I was wearing a black hoodie, black jeans with holes and black shoes. They wanted to check out a museum that was nearby. It was one of the only museums to actually carry any history about wars between human and monsters. Sara thinks that this museum might have a clue to the box since the box did say museum on it. The museum wasn't that far away so we decided walked there. When we got their the museum it was mostly empty due to it not being popular. It was only still open because it was owned by the government. It was a weird experience for me since no one even glanced our way.  The more recent war was kept at the back so we decided to start there.

Once we got to the back of the museum, we split up Jack, Clare, and John were one group and Sara and I were in another. The two reasons Sara and I even went is one I knew nothing of monster war history and two I think Jack, Clare and John wanted an excuse for us to go on a date. It worked either way. Sara and I had a blast. Sara and I walked around it and read the signs that talked about the wars history. The full history of the war of Monster and Humans was this:

In the beginning when monsters were starting to get found out, there was a kingdom that ruled over all monster kind. For years humans and monsters lived in harmony, helping each other out when they could. War had stopped worldwide because of the monsters. hunger was abolished. This was an area of peace. That is until It came crashing down. The king, Ash the 3rd, who had currently ruled became corrupt from an unknown reason and peace ended. The king had two children, one he kept to himself and One that he imprisoned. In 2233 the king of monsters declared war due to both of his children supposedly being taken by the humans. It was a slaughter until one human rose up and took control. He pushed most of the monsters into hiding. There are still a few today that remain. They are children who were lost from their own kind.

The history ended with a few legends, Three of them caught my eye: one said that there was a third child who was imprisoned as well. Another said that these two were twin girls, one is an angel and the other was a demon. The third said that one of the children would rise up against their father with a group and overthrow him bringing peace to Humans and Monsters once again. I took pictures of all this just in case it could help us. A weird feeling stuck with me. a feeling of the war not being the whole truth. It felt like it was mostly lies but parts were true. I shook the feeling off.

After a while I had to use the bathroom, so I told Sara I would be back soon. I went to the bathroom. When I got ready to go back, I was attacked by a person I hadn't known was in here. I didn't have time to dodge and was grabbed easily. I couldn't escape no matter what I did. The person was holding me tightly. I tried to scream for help, but the person acted fast and put a cloth over my mouth and noise. It was wet and smelled sweet. I was struggling for air, so I had no choice but to breath the smell in. My body soon grew weak. My eyes were dropping and soon I passed out.
