Angels vs Demons

Chapter 3

Harper

I look to see who is making the noise behind us. I stare in shock. It's Isaac. "Run" I whispered. We ran for what seemed like ten minutes. I saw someone in the distance. Not knowing who it was, made me nervous. I walked over to whoever it was. Then sighed in relief to see Alex beating the life out of Nolan. "Hey guys," I started, but realized Emily wasn't there. "Where's Emily?" Alex looks up, "what?" I look at Nolan, his face is completely pale. Well that's not good, I thought.

He starts pacing. "Hmmmmm...noooooooooooo. Well...I have to go meet someone in snowdin, BYE!" Alex yelled, a blue portal opening next to her as a skeletal arm pulled her in. "We have to find Emily!" Nolan says in a very worried voice. Then out of nowhere, Isaac pops out of a portal directly behind Raul. He pulls out a knife, aiming for Raul. My adrenaline kicked in, and threw myself in front of Isaac. I feel a sharp pain in my chest as he stabs me. Slowly, I feel the life drain from me as I bled out, my pulse fading. I took my final breath as I flipped Isaac off.

Raul

Isaac screamed, stomping on the ground papyrus style in anger. "No.No,no,no. THIS WASN'T SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN!" He pointed at me. "YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO DIE, NOT HER. IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT!" I felt those words sink into my brain. It's my fault? I thought. My eyes started to water. I felt I was losing control. My eyes went red. My face went pale. I started to black out. There's no one who can save Isaac from my demon side.

Harper

H-Huh? Why am I alive?! I think to myself. "Ugh, what happened?" I ask no one in particular. "Oh, uh...I brought you to my house! Are you gonna like, ask me where I have been? I missed you by the way!" that voice...Isaac. This must be some kind of alternate reality where everything is switched and I am dating Isaac...gross. I guess that the me in this reality is calm but dangerously......stupid.

I should document this, like woah, cool! Except for Isaac, he is disgusting. I try my best to stay still and put on a face as if to look like I don't care. "Yea yea...I missed you too." I said without gagging. "Awwwww, you look really cute like that!" He giggles. I blush and growl. "S-shut up! I am going, and don't ruin the house like last time. You know what happens." I mutter. What am I even saying? Last time?! How did that come out of my mouth? Where am I going to go? Should I see Nolan? He should be dating Alex if I am right about this. Where, oh where could they be? Wait what was that noise? I decide to listen to where it is coming from and find out that it is Alex and Nolan cuddling...my Alex won't be happy about this. Well...I need to tell them my secret because WHY NOT?! So right now I am making a bad choice and walking in front of them. Oh god...what am I doing again? I sighed. "Heyyyyy guys...umm...can we talk?" I ask.

Alternate Alex

W.t.h?! We usually fight and now she wants to talk? Maybe...maybe something is wrong, like last time... "what do you want Harper?" I ask, cuddling my amazing boyfriend. She just sighs. "W-well...ya see, I am not your Harper...I am from an alternate universe where me and you are best friends! And we hate Isaac, and that you and Nolan hate each other, but that is because he stole my cookies and touch-a da child." She sounds confident about it.

"Okay, say I do believe you, what would I get in return? Money? Get to meet my alternate self? What?" I ask, curiosity clear in my eyes. She nods frantically. "Yes! Please just help me get home, alternate Alex!" "What happened for you to end up here anyway?" I ask. "Well uh...Isaac was about to stab Raul, but I interfered and got killed instead." She muttered. She must be telling the truth...but something feels off about her, like I am getting taken for a ride of surprise...and I HATE surprises. I think to myself, contemplating my choices. I finally give into the puppy dog eyes she gives me and decide to help...They feel kind of familiar...

Raul

I carry Harper home. She's not breathing. I sigh as I hold back the tears. I lay her on the couch. Without realizing it, I began pacing back and forth across the room. I don't know what I'll do wIthout her. She shifts. What the actual heck?! I thought. I stare at her before getting closer to investigate. She moves again?! Then I remember Emily! Crap crap crap crap! What if she's dead?! She must be with Isaac...but what about Harper? I thought, while slowly inching closer to the door. I have to save Emily, Nolan will never forgive me! I groaned as I flew out of the house as fast as possible.
