After they had completely burnt to ashes. I just left them there.

I was going to bury them, but Leah is still waiting for me.

I put back on my hoodie and discreetly walked out of there house.

I'm surprised no one was alarmed of the bonfire. I would assume the neighbors would be alarmed that a bonfire was going on this late at night.

I'm thinking for telling Leah about what I did. However, I have a feeling she'll be really mad at me. I did what I had to do.

I arrived at the beach. I saw Leah waiting behind the rock. The sky was pitch and the night was getting colder as Leah waited.

In the corner of her eye, she saw me.

"What took you so long?" She asked in a annoyed tone.

"I just had to do something," I said.

"Well what did you have to do?" questioned Leah raising a eyebrow.

"I just convinced your parents to leave there house," I lied.

"You didn't hurt them right..?" She questioned.

"I would never," I lied.

She stood up and said,"Thanks."

"Your welcome," I replied.

"Do you remember the way to there house?" asked Leah.

"Yeah," I said as we began to walk back to there house.

As we were walking. Suddenly, 2/10 more of my hair turned black. My hair was almost fully black.

"Your hair..." exclaimed Leah.

"I know," I sighed.

"Why does it keep changing color?" asked Leah.

"The ghost," I confessed.

She frowned and gave me a quick slide hug.

"If anything happens to me, just know I love you," I sighed.

She made a worried face and frowned.

"What will happen?" asked Leah.

"I don't know," I sighed frowning.

She held my hand the whole time. We would walking there.

I could tell by her face that she was worried. I was too.

I really don't know what will happen after the rest of my hair turns black.

We made it to her parents house. We walked inside and then I realized. I didn't clean up the blood.

Leah noticed the droplets blood and her eyes widen. Her jaw dropped.

"Why did you lie to me?!" She shouted.

"Because I knew you would be angry," I sighed.

"What did you do?" She questioned.

I paused and my head dropped down. I couldn't make eye contact with her.

"What did you do?!" She asked with her voice rasied.

"I..I...killed them," I confessed.

She let out a deep breath and her eyebrows rasied. Her jaw dropped opened.

"Are you crazy?!" She shouted.

I didn't say anything or even look at her.

"I can't do this," She sighed.

"Do what?" I asked.

"This whole situation," sighed Leah.

"I did what I had to do," I said.

"You didn't have to do anything," She said.

Her tears were watering up and a single tear dropped down from her cheek.

"Your really crying," I said annoyed.

"Am I not allowed to cry? They took care of me for most of my life. Now they are gone because of you!" yelled Leah crying.

"Your pathetic," I said without thinking.

"I'm pathetic?! Your the one who got kicked out of your house because of something you can control. " yelled Leah.

"And your crying over people who obviously didn't love you enough!" I said annoyed.

"You weren't here for most of my life so you don't have a say in that," said Leah in angery tone.

"So you allowed to bring up my personal life without knowing anything, but I'm not?" I questioned angered and annoyed.

"I see how it was based on your behavior now," She said.

"But you don't know the full story," I said.

"That still doesn't gave you a right to murder someone," She cried.

"My past is still the reason why I'm like this," I said.

"Your a freaking royal apparently. Your life is perfect," assumed Leah.

"Thats where your wrong," I said.

"Then tell me," She insisted.

"I got neglected, bullied and, verbally abused. But then you tell me my life was perfect," I said in a loud tone.

"Your still crazy for thinking murder is okay!" Shouted Leah.

"I'm not," I insisted.

"I'm done, I can't be here," sighed Leah crying.

"Then go live on the streets. Be homeless!" I shouted as she walked out of the house.

She turn around to look at me and said, "I never want to see you again."

"Okay now go cry about your dead parents!" I shouted as she walked away sobbing.

At this point, I didn't care. She obviously didn't get it. Why does she even care about them? She's not even blood related to them.

I slammed the front door shut. I looked around the house and found a mop. I grabbed that mop and began to mop up the blood on the floor.

I picked up my stained knife and put it in my pocket.

I went into Leah's room. It was completely trashed. It seems like after they kicked her out. They trashed the room out of anger.

I laid down on the bed and stared at the white ceiling. My eyes slowly closed and I fell asleep.

The next morning, I woke up and checked my phone.

I saw many messages from the same person.

Jasmin texted me 10 times at 1 AM. The messages were her asking about if there were any fires near me. That Bianca's house got burned down and other houses in the neighborhood got set on fire.

I decide to text her back.

Naomi: No I'm fine.

Jasmin: Thats good, isn't it sad?

Naomi: What's sad?

Jasmin: Bianca's house getting burned down.

Naomi: Totally.

Jasmin: Where are you?

Naomi: None of your business.

Jasmin: Don't give me that attitude. 😒 😤😑😐

Naomi: I'm on the streets.

Jasmin: 😳

Jasmin: Come back.

Naomi: Didn't you kick me out?

Jasmin: Yes, but just come without the girl.

Naomi: Okay whatever.

Jasmin: Is the girl with you?

Naomi: No we broke up. 🤣

Jasmin: Why is that funny?

Naomi: Because she's pathetic. 🤣🤣

Jasmin: .......

Jasmin: Anyways just come back.

Naomi: Ok, I'm on my way.

I turned off my phone and walked out of the house. Making sure every drop of blood was gone.

The wind began to pick up and it suddenly became darker. Even though it was 11 AM. Clouds filled the sky.

"Hey Ondine..." said the voice.

"Since when do you talk to me when I'm not in a mirror," I said.

"Since now," whispered the voice.

"What do you want?" I said annoyed rolling my eyes.

"I want you to kill Bianca," whispered the voice.

"What do you have against her?" I asked.

"You're against her," whispered the voice.

"Okay so...?" I said not caring.

"You burnt down her house and broke her phone," whispered the voice.

"I didn't..." I insisted.

"I meant we did," laughed the voice.

"That makes no sense. I would remember it," I said.

"Well I mainly did it. I was just using your body," laughed the voice.

"I-" I said in shock.

"I can make you do things without using a mirror. I am almost completely you now. There's no stopping me," said the voice.

The winds went back to normal and the sun began to shine brightly again.

I began to walk to Jamin's house. In the area, there were several fire fighters and police.

It looked like an investigation was going on. There was a long yellow tape around Bianca's house.

Bianca and her parents were outside. They were being questioned by the police. The once tall green trees were now lifeless sticks.

Their once biggest mansion was black and the windows were non-existant. Some other neighbors were outside staring at the disaster.

"You!" shouted Bianca as she pointed as me.

"Huh?" I said confused.

"You burnt down my house!" shouted Bianca.

I walked closer to the scene and said, "Proof?"

"I'm just assuming you did," smiled Bianca.

I walked closer to her. She could feel my breath on her neck.

I whispered, "You deserve it."

Jasmin walked out of her house and smiled right at me.

"Naomi, how about you let Bianca in your room," suggested Jasmin smiling.

I sighed heavily and rolled my eyes.

I walked inside of Jamin's house and Bianca followed.

We quickly walked up the stairs and went into my bedroom.

I locked the door.

"Um why lock the door?" questioned Bianca.

I took out my blood stained knife and point it at her.

She gasped and her eyes widen.

"What do you want from me?" She asked in a worried tone.

"Why did you do it?!" I yelled.

"Do what?" asked Bianca.

"Send that picture," I said.

"Because I was jealous and I wanted revenge," She confessed.

I was confused why would she be jealous? What's there to be jealous of?

"Huh?" I said with a confused face.

"She never told you?" exclaimed Bianca.

"Told me what?" I asked.

"I had a crush on Leah last summer..." began Bianca.
