"Jessica~!" I covered my ears and let out a cry of disgust,

"Don't call me that!" Annabel, the one who sung it, smirked,

"Why not?" I blinked at her,

"Because I don't like the name..." Annabel rolled her eyes,

"It's a good name." I pursed my lips and murmured:

"Jess is better..." I looked around and sighed, "Everyone is at the canteen." Annabel's eyes drifted to my arm,

"What is that?" She asked suspiciously, I quickly overed my red raw arm,

"Nothing." I blinked, "That reminds me!" I pulled out my phone and dialled Josephs number,

"Hello?" He answered,

"Just ignore me, it's all cool..." Annabel murmured,

"Ahaha! I'll be 3 seconds!" I assured her, "This is really important." I turned back to the phone,

"Is this Jess?" He asked, I could hear the smirk in his voice. I sighed at him and shook my head before putting the phone back to my ear,

"You're an idiot. Anyway, meet me at the end of school."

"Why?" Because I have something important to..." I hesitated, "Show you, let's say." I didn't wait for his reply and just hung up the phone.

Annabel stared at me for a few seconds,

"What's so important that you have to meet him straight after school, he has a life too, y'know." I inwardly sighed in relief when she didn't notice my scarred arm never moving from beside me,

"Don't worry, nothing too serious-" I slapped my hand over my mouth as Annabel gave me a look.

Just then, Emilia, Molly, Kiyara and Daren appeared,

"What did we miss?" Emilia asked as they all sat.

"Jess was going to tell us something 'not to serious'." Annabel's eyes never left mine as she spoke. I smirked at her and held up my injured arm with a sign,

"You outsmarted me, here's your reward." Everyone's mouths dropped,

"What did you do?!" Emilia screamed in my ear as she yanked my arm over to her.

"Ow." I stated with a blank face,

"Why would you...?" Molly muttered as she watched Emilia freak out.

"I didn't do it." I explained easily, "Someone else did."

"And why would you tell Joseph, but not us?" Annabel asked, sounding slightly hurt. I sighed,

"Him and I know some things."

"Some things?" Kiyara asked with an exasperated tone. I fumbled over words as I tried to come up with an excuse. For some twisted reason, something in my head snapped, and made me do something I thought I'd never do.

"I've come to a decision." I finally overcame my stuttering and mumbling and rose to my feet. I gave everyone a serious look, "If you want to know everything then come-"

"Hello people!" India sung happily as she sat.

"SHHH!!" Everyone hissed at her. I smirked at her bad timing,

"What?" She asked while looking at everyone confused.

"I'm about to tell everyone something pretty important." I answered with a chuckle, India shrugged,

"How important is it?" I sighed,

"Ok, if you wanna know the truth, then after school meet me at the beach." Annabel nodded,

"Alright..." She murmured, everyone else agreed with her afterwards

"Wait wait wait." India interrupted,

"Yes?" I asked.

"What's the truth?" I gave her a deadly serious look,

"The truth will change everything you ever believed, thought about, and were taught." My heart raced as I grabbed my bad and turned to leave,

"But wait!" India called. I paused, but didn't turn around. "I have to catch the train!" She whined, "I can't go to the beach without missing it!" I looked over my shoulder at her,

"Trust me, when you hear what I've got to say, it'll be worth it. Plus," I added, "I have a way of getting you home." I then turned and continued to leave the now silent group.

I better have made the right decision.

I tapped my foot because of the nerves I was feeling as I waited for everyone. Joseph was already with me, he was sitting on one of the rocks.

"I'm still not sure about this..." Joseph grimaced as he picked at a small blade of grass in his hands. No doubt he was feeling the same nervousness as I am,

"Look, I know what I'm doing... I think..." Joseph sighed,

"You realise that you could lose them." I bit my lip,

"You're not helping." Joseph stared at me.

"Can you tell me what you wanted to tell me?" I shook my head,

"I'll tell you when everyone else is here." Joseph sighed,

"If you insist, Miss Stubborn." I smiled slightly at his attempt to lighten the mood. But we both knew that this heaviness wouldn't go away until I spoke the truth.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~

Pretty soon after that, Annabel, Emilia, Molly, Kiyara and India approached,

"He didn't want to come." Molly explained before i could ask about Daren.I nodded,

"I understand." Joseph stood, looking deadly serious.

"Follow me." He instructed. Everyone, including me, nodded and followed, just as instructed.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"So..." I started as I sat on a rock, my heart was racing. What will they think? Well, at least Joseph took us to an un-populated part of the beach.

"Are you gonna tell us?" Emilia asked, getting annoyed by how long she'd een kept waiting. I sighed,

"Alright. Guys," I looked over everyone nervously, "What I wanted to tell you guys is that..." I closed my eyes and took in a breath,

"I can travel through dimensions."
