It was nearly the end of the day. Everything went by today in a blur. I was just a zombie trying to survive the day. I haven't seen Jordan today well only at lunch where he was sitting by the jocks. Jordan was talking to Troy. Troy looked a bit worried. So whatever they were talking about wasn't good news.

I was actually drifting off a lot in Mr Scorpion's class. I think he is actually making his lesson this long on purpose. Almost nobody did their homework well except for Jordan, Troy and Lena. I was excused because I wasn't here but I still will have to catch it up this weekend. Great. I was having trouble staying awake which why I liked to be at the back of the class for then the teacher can't see when your falling asleep or texting in class like some Jocks or the like Mike throwing  paper airplanes.

Some people are daring enough because if Mr Scorpion catches them... He is sure to give them a fair punishment. Actually this might get good. Lena elbowed me. "At least try to look like your not about to fall asleep. "She said laughing. " Hey! You try stay awake after a restless night. "I said poking her. Everything settled down and went dead silence when Mr Scorpion turned around.

His eyes glaring at us. I swear if he could he could shoot daggers out of them. He then turned back to the board when the bell rang. Finally!  "Students. Before you all run out of here like hooligans. Remember the assignment is due to the end of the term. You all are dismissed. "He said waving us off. "How is the assignment with Troy? "I asked elbowing her and shooting my head at Troy who stood across the room.

I saw a faint blush spread on her cheeks. "Oh. Great! He isn't actually bad. He has good ideas. And you and Jordan? "She asked winking at me. I rolled my eyes at her. "We didn't even get chance because everytime something comes up and then we drop it. " Lena laughed. "I have anyway bigger problems then my assignment. I have tryouts to think about. "I said making my way to the locker room.

"It's not going to be that bad. You'll see. "She said panting me on the back. I couldn't help laughing. I changed into a  long sleeved T-shirt  and shorts. I changed into my running shoes and tied my hair into a ponytail. I waited for Lena outside the girls locker room. Soon Lena came out in a black tank top and blue shorts. "You know. I think you have a good chance of winning this thing. "I said. She laughed "Sure. "

We walked to the field. Then we felt the rain poured down on us. We both spun around and ran inside. "Yikes. It's raining pretty hard. "I said looking outside. Lena's eyes suddenly went wide. "Hey. Have I shown you this... poster. "She said pulling me away from the door to the wall. I looked puzzled at her.

"What am I looking at? "I asked as I saw a million posters. Suddenly I felt a jolt of electricity at my back. "This one. "She pointed to the corner. What was that?  "Chess club? "I asked looking at her puzzled. She shrugged. "Oh. Look it stopped raining. "She said pointing outside. What? That's not possible. It was raining hard a minute ago. "Really? It was raining very hard a few minutes ago. "I said following her outside.

I looked up.  It was only cloudy. Something doesn't feel right. I narrowed my eyes at the sky. After a few moments I saw a visible dome. The rain fell against it.  Suddenly my arm burn. I rolled up my sleeve and I saw my scar... Glowing! What? It really burns as if it was on fire. It then faded. That was strange. "Selena? Are you ok? Your very pale. "Lena's voice cut through the air.

I blinked and looked up. I quickly rolled my sleeve down. "Hmm? Oh yeah... I'm... I'm fine. Just wondering about the weather chance. "I said shrugging and rubbing my arm. "Who cares? Let's go! "She said grabbing my arm and lead me to the field. We were early. It was only the normal runners, Jocks,  Michelle and her group. Great. I felt Michelle's cold eyes glaring at me from where I was standing.

Our field is connect with the woods. I was looking at the trees for comfort. Why am I doing this? No, just nerves talking I'll be fine. Then I saw him. The figure. I blinked but he was still there. I felt his cold  presences like stabbing needles. Who is that? Could it be the Holwer that is following you?  Lena's words rang through my head.
