No! Get it away from me. It's going to kill everyone. Run! Wednesday and Rose, get back.
Lucas had been unconscious for the past 30 minutes and had been whispering agitated words warning me and Wednesday to save ourselves.
After the debacle at the forest, I had immediately called up dad. I tried to explain dad what had just happened while tears were constantly streaming down my face. I couldn't help but glare at Wednesday. I knew she had been in trouble too but I blamed her as Luke had run after her to probably warn her.
The poor boy was now lying covered with a blanket on the bed of his dorm as dad, Principal Weems, Wednesday and I sat around.
Emma had dropped in a while ago , bringing her Pikachu plushie as a means of providing comfort to her brother. It had taken me a long time to get her to sleep as she kept hiccupping and tears marred her face.
Fucking perfect, they were supposed to stay safe, I was supposed to keep them safe. I couldn't help but feel responsible for all of it.
Meanwhile, Wednesday had filled us in on what had happened. Well, almost. The version she provided was that she had stumbled upon the attack and then ran out to inform Bianca Barclay, another Nevermore student before finding herself in her dorm room.
Sheriff Galpin had dropped in and Wednesday had requested a private chat with him.
It was after 5 minutes that we both however received the shock of our lives as the boy who had been slashed in a violent rage by the monster stood before us.
