"Gone? To where? How?""They... I presume they exploded." ...Say what now?!!!"Err... sorry, you said exploded." She attempted to correct him. He definitely made a mistake."Yes. Exploded. But we can't explain how though. It's the strangest thing we have seen so far, the fact that only his insides bursted while his external body was still just fine is shocking and bewildering." The doctor and nurse had a shocked and confused look on their faces. That was the sign for her. They weren't playing around. They weren't joking. His insides really bursted?! Is that even possible?"But... I still don't understand." She mumbled out, her brows scrunched in confusion as she looked at the doctor and nurse."We don't either. We're really sorry." The doctor patted her shoulder reassuringly, feeling bad for her.'Wait, what do you mean by, 'We don't either.'? Aren't you supposed to be the medical practitioners here? Why won't you give me an answer, huh? Why?!'Her mind was in a bit of rage as she loo

"I thought only witches and or wizards could open it, so I went in search of them. My mind could leave the coffin as a mist of smoke or a miasmatic kind of darkness but couldn't cause any harm at all. Funny how I thought it would be easy to manipulate the mind of a witch. They weren't humans who were weak and had no powers. In fact, they knew about me, so whenever I'd come, they'd send me back."He began to pace from his right to his left. "The witches were very smart. Their older ones had told them about me and even if they weren't informed, they knew how dangerous a demon was and how manipulative one can be. So, after trying and failing to get to them for hundreds of years, I decided to divert to another solution. Humans." He paused and looked up at her."Humans are weak and powerless. The weakest of all races. One would ask what I wanted to do with a human. I wondered that myself. But it seemed I just needed someone who could say the unlocking spell and so I manipulated the minds o

"I'm up for it." A certain cool voice spoke beside her. "Romeo's role. I would love to try it out."Sorry, he said what?!"That is wonderful!" Mrs Taylor almost jumped in excitement, "Well then, now we have our main leads already so every other person can choose theirs."A ringing sound blared in her head. She would play Juliet and this... dude would play Romeo. That would make them... lo-... lovers!'Isabella. This is your second warning. If this happens again, you might not be able to hear his voice again, nor will you talk back to him talk less of seeing him.' She remembered Kim's words earlier and stood up abruptly, "No!"All heads turned to her, "Mn?" Mrs Taylor couldn't quite understand the reason for the abruptness."I can't do it." She shook her head along with her words."Do what?""The role. I... I can't do it.""Isabella. I'm not asking you to do it. I am telling you what you would do." Mrs Taylor's reply was as firm and solid as the fist of a baby."But I won't be availabl

"I... err... what?!" Chloe couldn't even form a single sense in what just happened. It was like a flash in her eyes.One minute, they were questioning Isabella and she was just there to give her account as a witness and then... Boom! She becomes a suspect! "You were the first person to see her in that state, were you not?" Isa was so calm and collected like she wasn't the one being questioned earlier."No... Yes? I don't know! Immediately you came out, I went in and saw her like that!" She was losing her cool. She was panicking. She didn't do anything wrong here so why was she been questioned?"Mr. Collins, Mr. Mark, I didn't do anything wrong here. Why am I being questioned?""No one said you did anything wrong here. We're just placing the odds." Both the principal and teacher turned their heads to Isa in surprise. It was like she wasn't the one talking. Truly, where did this side of her come from?"Enough! We-" The principal was cut off by the knock on the door."Yes?"Mrs Taylor

What would the world think of me? Not like I care though. They already-"Ms. Davies?"-think I'm a crazy bitch. They'd be happy I-"Ms. Davies?!"-died. I'm sure nobody would attend my funer-"Ms. Davies!!!" She jumped from the abrupt bang on the table in front her. Table in front of her...? When did... How did she end up in front of a table?Cole sighed for the umpteenth time, "Ms Davies? Can you look up?"She slowly rose her head and surprisingly she was in a dimly lit room - actually there was no light except for the white light bulb hanging over the big looking table - with two men across her. One sitting, the other standing behind him in the shadows. They were the cops that came to the school. And also the table.Why does it feel like she's in an interrogating room?"Can you... hear me?" The man sitting across her spoke again while doing some hand gestures. Does he think she's deaf or something?"Ofcourse I can hear you." The man breathed out and smiled at her like she just mad
