"Leave. Leave now. It's happening, it's too late we were too late. Leav-"

Her eyes turn fully red and she cries out in agony, her scream making my ears ring. Her dress looks as though someone has poured blood on it, the colour soaking it, the once white fabric quickly turning red. Her hair going from blinding white to a red that sucks you in. Again, she screams, ending in a strangled cry of pain. My heart thumps hard in my ears. My eyes wide and my breathing unsteady, the girl infront of me doubles over, clutching her stomach. Another cry of pain. Then her hands are in her hair, pulling at the red strands, pulling and pulling and pulling. A crack sounds and it vibrates through my entire body, the floor beneath my feet groans and shakes. When I look back up at her she's staring at me. Her red eyes piercing my soul.
I jerk back from shock, hitting my elbow on the wall, her voice is still deadly calm, but now it scares me. Terrifies me,
"I told you to leave."
