Prologue- Dreams “I’m sorry Mrs. Agu,” A man’s voice said, sounding apologetic. “We can’t help her.” “Please!” My mom’s voice yelled. “Adaku, let’s go.” My dad’s voice told my mom. “No, Abaeze! We can’t leave her like this!” I heard quiet sobs and footsteps. “I’m so sorry-” The man says. “Save it. This is our fault.” The sobs got louder and so did the footsteps. “We’ll take her now.” Mom muttered. “Dayo will be so sad, he’s leaving and his friend-” Dad is cut off. “Can you not make this about Dayo for once?!” Mom yelled. “We’ll talk about this in the car, okay?” Dad tells mom. Hands lifted me up and I felt myself being carried. Something I think was a car door unlocks and then the door opened. I’m put down and my seat belt is buckled. The car door slammed and two more opened, then they slammed shut. “I can’t believe you.” Mom muttered. “What’d I do?!” He yelled. “Bringing up Dayo when it’s about our little girl!” “Dayo is the only other one like her!” Dad yelled back. The car started moving and my eyes slowly opened. It was nighttime, but I had only remembered the morning in P.e class. “Why can’t you just accept that she and Dayo’s energy can never mix!” My dad faces my mom. “Look. It’s either that or-” “Eyes on the road!” My mom yelled. My dad was driving into the woods. CRASH! My eyes were wide open now, our car had crashed into a tree, there was blood spilled all over the driver's seat, did my dad just die? I asked myself, and the answer was no then but when the ambulance finally got him to the hospital, yes. “If you feel a special connection with someone, hold onto it, never let him go.” “Him?” I asked dad with tears in my eyes. “Just trust me, my little phoenix-storm.” “Okay dad.” “Lamba time to wake up!” My mom sang in a sing-songy voice. My eyes slowly open and I climb out of bed, I guess today is the day. The day I go to Watson Academy. I walk down the stairs after getting ready. “My adorable little girl looks so ready for her first day!” Mom exclaimed, pulling my cheeks. “Mooom!” I groaned, pushing her hand away. We ate and then hopped into the car, driving straight to the school. “Bye mom.” I say trudging to the school doors. I stop when I only have one step left. Is this really where I want to be? Why does this school feel like it’s hiding something that I need to know? And why do I feel like there’s a strong presence in this school?
Thanks to whoever put this on google when I searched up fancy lookin school and then clicked rich fancy private school. Song: Glimpse of us by Joji Previous: None Next: Not out yet. Why are you still reading this? Anyway, I got some inspiration from Amari and the night brothers, (you guys should read it! P.s not my sponsor) I got the way and form of writing from there (present tense) but I always kinda loved supernatural things and the love just grew, I was always kinda shy and afraid of sharing my stories with people, because I was afraid they'd hate them and laugh at me for writing it. And now look where I am posting my google doc stories on scratch. My favorite tense to right in used to be past tense, but writing in present tense means even MORE details because it's happening right then and there, so there's no reason or way to forget it if it's right in front of you and happening in front of your eyes. This just helped with me describing things more instead of just simple adjectives, and you will see that as the story progresses. At first it was hard to stay on one, I kept switching back to past tense, but with a little help from my sister (and editor) I managed to stay on one, present tense.
