The Professor and Her Varsity Twins: A Campus Scandal

Emily POV

"Young lady you better make up or you will miss the train to school",this was Aunty May calling.Today I had slept in just like any other day.

"Be down in five",I answered as I tossed away the tempting quilt and walked into the bathroom.I took a quick cold shower and put on my floral dress and tied my black shiny hair into a pony tail.Gosh I was looking nice I guess.

"How many times do I have to call you down everyday.Enily dear you need to start being punctual and responsible right now you did not spread your own bed",Aunty Laura said.

"I will prepare it when am back okay.Love you",I said as I ran out to catch the train to Seattle from Tacoma ,Washington .

As far as i have remembered it has always been me and my two Aunties and the weird craving they always drew around the house.Little has been said about my mother and everytime I try to pry them open it seems like a forbidden topic for them.I know when they are ready we will have that conversation.

I was lucky I arrived in time and sat inside the train and plugged my earphones and started listening to Fifty Harmony In love with a monster.

After about an hour I had arrived.I was studying my undergraduate degree in health sciences at Seattle University.

I was almost late for my lecture that day because as soon as I took my seat the lecturer walked in.We had our lecture like everyday and today I had another extra cirruculum activity.

I had joined the school's volleyball team.We were going for practice this afternoon.It was time for lunch when we finished today's lecture and I went to the cafeteria.As I pushed the swinging doors to the cafeteria i was greated by the humming of conversations as well as clinking of silverware utensils.The smell of pizza and fries wafted through the air making my dtomch rumble with hunger.I joined the line ,scanning the options, macaroni and cheese,pizza,soggy vegetables and a sad looking salad bar. I then opted for a slice of pizza and a a glass of orange juice.As i waited to pay ,i gazed at the sea of familiar and unfamiliar faces scanning for an unoccupied place to sit.My life here has always been hectic,making friends has always been difficult.

Most of the people here were from prestigious schools and I only got enrolled because of a scholarship the university offered when I had the highest ranking marks in the state with four other individuals .

"Look what we have here,the street beggar.This is my spot so find a better place to scavenge",Latifa said as she came and sat on the table that I was sitting. She is the University  bully along side some of the boys.Today I was feeling weird,I felt so much power surging in my veins and it seems like it wanted to burst out of me.

"Hey the queen is talking to you.Get up ",this was one of her minions saying this.I totally continued eating and decided to ignore them.

Most of the times when I saw them I would flee but today coupled with how I was feeling.I was not giving up my table without a fight.

Seeing that I was challenging the bully's everyone was now looking towards my table.Some who were short were now on their feet to catch a clear glimpse of what was going to happen to me.

"I sat here first ,so what gives you right to claim this as your spot when clearly their is no mark to show for it",I said coldly which continuing eating my meals.

"Bitch did you just talk to me",Latinas said and the while cafeteria made a booing sound.

"Latifa do you feel superior by bullying the weak to prove yourself a champion.You ain't fooling anyone,we know how you are always battered by your boyfriend worst your drug addict of your parents.You are pathetic young lady .If I were you I would try to fix myself before trying to bully other people.You may take the spot am done,seeing your unlabelled silhouette just messes with my appetite",I said standing up.When I said this the whole cafeteria bursted out into a crazy laughter.Some where pointing fingers at Latifa and her minions mocking them.

"Do you think you will walk freely after what you said bitch?Girls beat her up",Latifa ordered .

For a moment I was filled with fear.Handling all of these people whilst it was perfectly clear was on my own was too detrimental amd catastrophic.

The girls stopped me and held me down on my knees.

"This is for talking dhit about me little girl",Latida walked and gave me several slaps on my face.Just then I felt a switch turn on in my mind and I found my self saying , "You just made a big mistake young lady",I said.It felt like I was jolonger in control of my own body and it felt like I was watching a movie happen.

When I confronted Latifa I felt adrenaline course through my veins.This feeling was very familiar like the one I always feel when I have fear and anxiety.But this time around it was different.I could feel my senses heightened and my reflexes quickening, it was as if my body was responding to a deep instict one I never knew I possessed.

I took a step forward,and Latifa sneered but it did not make me waver.Instead I felt new energy build up inside me like a coiled spring waiting to be released.Then in a burst of speed and strength I tackled the girl one by one with ferocity which surprised even me.

The last person was Latifa she had crawled into a corner and I felt my nails elongated and I gave her a slap across her face scaring her face leaving three distinct claw marks.

In my subconscious I fight to gain control of my body and I did.

I saw everyone looking at me with fear in their eyes.What have I done.

"Go away you monster",a girl called from the crowd.

"Am not a monster ",I cried and then looked at my hands and saw the claws I had.I rushed to the public toilet and locked myself inside.

When I was inside the bracelet which I always wore for protection according to my Aunties broke and a golden light glowed in my eyes when it did.What was going on?

Just then I started to hear some words in my head like chantings.

"HELLO DESTINY CHILD WE MEET AGAIN BUT THIS TIME I WILL DESTROY YOU",I heard a voice say loudly in my head and started laughing hysterically. The chanting and humming continued and I felt my nose bleed.

"Get out of my head,get out of my head ,GET OUT OF MY HEAD",I said and the whole university experienced a slight tremor but the mirror infront of me burst into smaller pieces.

"INDEED YOU ARE POWERFUL BUT WE ARE COMING FOR YOU",just then I felt weak and a smoke silhouette crawed from the ceiling with crawls and it grazed my cheek thus when I knew I was in danger.

I flung open the main door and sprinted out in lighting speed out of the building,my heart racing wildly with every sprint I took.The creature kept pace with me it's presence making the end of my hair stand and the air heavy and thick.

As I ran ,my mind was a ocean of thoughts.I had to get back to my aunties. They would kn9w what to do and definitely have the answers to this creature.As i was running everything around me started to become blur and a golden light with some hint of grey engulfed me.I was lifted of the ground and swallowed in the vortex of colour and sound.

And then,i found myself standing in our living room ,surrounded by the marking and engraving made by my aunties which filled me with warmth and comfort.My aunties looked at me with their eyes wide open with confusion and concern.

What has just happened?My mind wondered with many unanswered questions.
