No worries I will have him befriend Hilda eventually and even go on adventures once he gets pass his issues! Hope you enjoy this introduction!


Trevor was sitting on the playground's bench, waiting patiently for his friends to arrive! They had built up quite a decent reputation as pranksters! They did it all! Ding doing ditch, throwing stinkbombs, to even using a whoopie cushion, or two! Trevor took a deep breath, as he adjusted his snow cap. Despite, it not snowing at the time it was still quite chilly! Trevor then rubbed his two hands together in an attempt to heat them up. The action failed causing Trevor to sigh a bit.

'I knew I should have worn mittens today,' Trevor scolded himself.

Trevor looked around the playground to find younger kids using the swings. Trevor grinned as he recalled the fun he had using the swings with his friends.

'A shame we kinda grew out of using those and got into pulling pranks! Oh well! As long as we have fun it shouldn't matter much!' Trevor thought.

Trevor reached into his pants pocket and pulled out a few skittles. His mother had been on his case about eating candy, since he has a dentist appointment coming up.

'Mum needs to lighten up! I brush two times a day! As long as I brush regularly things should be good,' Trevor thought before eating the candy.

Suddenly, to Trevor's joy and satifisation his friends had entered the park. As soon as they saw him they rushed over with friendly smiles on their faces.

"Trevor, good to see you!" The girl of his group greeted.

"Hey guys! Ready for some fun!" Trevor greeted with a mischievous smile on his face.

"You know it man!" The boy with glasses exclaimed.

"Trevor, my uncle gave me this bag. Can we use it?" The boy without glasses asked while holding up a paper bag.

"You do know for the prank to work you have to set it on fire right?" Trevor asked.

Suddenly, to Trevor's surprised and slight fear the kid pulled out a lighter.

"He gave me this saying it was cool," The boy without glasses told the group.

"Ok that sounds good," Trevor responded sheepishly.

"I will be careful with it man," Trevor's friend assured him.

"You better!" Trevor snapped.

"Trevor, I don't think we should do this!" The girl exclaimed.

"Yes, his uncle was irresponsible to give it to him! I love pranks and all but we have to draw a line somewhere," The boy with glasses agreed.

"I understand, but this sounds like a good new prank! As long as somebody is careful things shouldn't go wrong!" Trevor responded.

"Trevor, I promise nothing will go wrong!" The boy without glasses told his friend.

"I will hold you to it! Now come on we have a prank to perform!" Trevor told his friends.

"Trevor, who should be the target?" The girl asked.

"What about Ms. Hallgrim," Trevor suggested.

"What for?" The girl asked.

"I told you guys I deserved a B on my side of our group project not a lousy C," Trevor answered.

"Just be glad you passed Trevor! Last time I checked I did most of the work and ended up with a B+!" The girl snapped.

"You both should be glad you got a passing grade!" The boy without glasses snapped.

"Exactly! Don't you want some payback for that failed grade?" Trevor asked.

"Well, that does sound good!" The boy without glasses admitted.

Trevor rubbed his hands together in anticipation before exclaiming, "It's time for a great prank!"

"I still think this isn't a good idea, but I will go along with it!" The girl said.

"Same here!" The boy with glasses agreed.

"Fine! I know the two of you will be laughing with us regardless," Trevor responded with a chuckle.

"True, but that is beside the point!" The boy with glasses said with his arms crossed.

The group left the park, ready to start some pranks around the town! Trevor and his male friend without glasses had excited smiles on their faces at the idea of getting their teacher, while the rest of their group had neutral expressions on their faces.

"Trevor, remind me how does this work again?" The boy without glasses asked.

"Tell me does that bag contain what I think it contains?" Trevor asked.

"Of course! My uncle prepared it himself," He answered.

"All you have to do is set it on fire in front of the door and ding dong ditch. They will see the bag and put out it out, getting all that crap on them," Trevor answered.

"I find that gross, but funny," The girl admitted.

"That is why you are a part of our group! You get our humor and interests, even if you find them gross sometimes," Trevor responded.

"Strangely, I am flattered by that," The girl admitted.

"Trevor, that does sound easy enough," The boy without glasses stated.

"Everything sounds easier written down! You have to be quick with the timing as well as being careful when setting the bag in fire," Trevor responded.

"Trevor, I got this!" The boy without glasses said.

"I hope so! Do you remember all the close calls we had when our pranks failed?" Trevor asked.

"Of course we do Trevor, but we have gotten better!" The girl answered.

"Doesn't mean we can't fail," Trevor pointed out.

"True, but I believe we won't!" The boy without glasses responded.

"Ok. I trust you!" Trevor told him with a smile.

"I won't let you down!" He said returning the smile.

The group made it to their teacher's house and hid behind the garbage bins.

"Thank God! Ms. Hallgrim leaves her bins out front," Trevor said.

"Wish me luck Trevor!" The boy without glasses told him.

"I don't believe in luck!" Trevor responded while folding his arms and shaking his head.

The boy without glasses nodded before walking towards the front door.

"Hey! Good luck!" Trevor shouted.

The boy without glasses smiled before reaching the front door. He carefully placed the bag on the porch and lit it on fire. He sighed in relief at not burning himself and knocked on the door. He ran off and hid behind the garbage bins before the door opened revealing Ms. Hallgrim. She looked down and gasped in fear at the bag before putting it out! The fear turned into anger when she realized what she stepped in!

"Lousy punks!" She snapped before returning inside.

Seeing the coast was cleared the group left their hiding spot and started laughing uncontrollably. Trevor gave his friend a pat on the back with a huge grin on his face.

"Awesome job! That was the best stunt we pulled!" Trevor exclaimed.

"Yes, it was!" The girl agreed.

"What should we do now?" The boy with glasses asked.

Before Trevor could answer in the distance he noticed Hilda rushing around the area!

'What is she doing here? Whenever she appears something strange happens! I don't like it! First was the whole bird incident and then the parent teacher night! I swear she must be a witch! It's the only explanation I can think of! I swear one of these days I will expose her and people will know I am telling the truth!' Trevor thought.

"Trevor, what is with you?" His female friend asked.

"Sorry guys I was distracted!" Trevor explained sheepishly.

"Trevor, let it go! We know Hilda is a bit strange, but you seem a bit obsessed with her," She responded.

"I know! I just can't resist the urge to get to the bottom of this and learn what makes her tick," Trevor told his friends.

"Trevor, you have to stop dwelling on that and just move on with your life!" She told him.

"How? Ever since that day I can't even look at a bird without flinching in fright. I hate having to live like this!" Trevor snapped.

Trevor placed his hands on his head and began rubbing it.

"Sorry! I shouldn't have taken it out on you guys!" Trevor apologized.

"Trevor, it's fine! Just let it all out!" The girl assured him.

Before Trevor could respond he heard the sound of wings flapping.

'Oh crap! Could it be?' Trevor thought in fright.

"Trevor! I heard you are scared of me now! Perfect! Now I can pay you back for that day!"A loud voice shouted.

Trevor stared shaking in fright at the sight of a giant gray bird lowering in front of him. Trevor managed to notice his friends were stunned at the sight of the bird.

'At least they will believe me now!' Trevor thought.

"He was telling the truth all along!" The girl snapped.

"Yes, he was! See where it got him! Now he fears my species and I can't be any happier! Now the tables have been turned! Ready Trevor?" The bird taunted.

"Please no!" Trevor begged.

"Nothing can save you now!" The bird snapped creating getting closer and closer.

Trevor screamed in fright and before the bird could get him he woke up in fright. Trevor looked around his room to find that it was all just another nightmare. Trevor moaned in anger and annoyance.

"Come on! That dream started out great! Are my dreams being invaded by Marra?" Trevor asked himself silently.

Trevor got out of bed and walked to his window. After opening it he was annoyed to find it was still night.

'Great! Another sleepless night!' Trevor thought.

Trevor walked to his bookshelf and began to look for a particular books on spirits. Trevor was surprisingly a kid that likes to read and learn interesting information. He finds school to be boring and too restrictive and prefers learning things on his own!

'I have to make sure it isn't Marra causing my nightmares! Let's see a simple fix is wearing a belt around your waist while sleeping! That is strange! Why not a magical dream catcher? Maybe I can invent that one day? It is better than wearing a belt to bed," Trevor thought.

Trevor placed the book back into his bookshelf and quietly left his room. He entered the bathroom as quietly as he could. He didn't want to wake up his mother. She had been worried about his lack of sleep for the pass few weeks now.

'I am worried too! I have to find a way to stop these nightmares! They are really pissing me off!' Trevor thought.

Trevor walked to the bathroom sink and began to wash his face with cold water. He took a look in the mirror to find he still had bags under his eyes. Trevor sighed before yawning.

'If this keeps up I am sure these bags will become permanent!' Trevor thought.

Trevor left the bathroom and went back in his room. Trevor pondered what to do for a few moments.

'I could try falling asleep again, but I usually get insomnia after experiencing a nightmare. I could read for a bit, but I hate making mum more worried about me!' Trevor thought.

Trevor checked his bedroom clock to find that it's 5:30 in the morning! He has to get up for school in only an hour and a half!

'The time is better than before! Is an hour and a half really that bad? I mean I am still tired a bit, but I still managed to get a good 6 and a half hours of sleep! I should be able to last! Still I should get back in bed! I don't want mum to start worrying about me!' Trevor thought.

Trevor got back into bed and closed his eyes! He tried his best to relax, but he found himself completely frustrated!

'What is the point! My life sucks now! Look at me I am a shell of my former self! I have an intense fear for a common animal that I can't expect to go a day without seeing! My former friends didn't believe me and after all that they pretty much left me! They got tired of me trying to prove I am being honest and they think my fear makes me weak! Like I asked for it! After that day I was so frightened at what that bird and strange girl did that I wouldn't leave the house unless I had to! I wouldn't do anything fun with them, so they decided to leave me! They never considered that something serious did happen to me and to help me get through it! They rather still believe I am lying and that I have gone soft! I am so alone! All I have is mum, but I don't want to make her more worried! I don't know if I can make it through this!' Trevor thought as tears began to form.

Trevor opened his eyes and gently wiped his tears!

'I want to stay determined, but I don't know if I can!' Trevor thought sadly.

Trevor sighed as he began to remember how good his life was.

'I had friends, decent school grades, and I felt nothing could go wrong! I am still stunned at how things ended up going a complete 180! It's all because of that strange girl and that damn bird! Every time I see her with her friends, having a good time I am reminded of what she helped took away from me. Is it really fair to give her some of the blame? I don't know, but I can't help but give it to her! Seeing, the usually friendly look on her face makes me sick! I was harmed by her actions during that day and she still continues being all happy. Hasn't she stopped to consider what happened to me? Or was her focus on just that stupid bird? Perhaps, I should blame myself too for making those decisions that day! Hindsight is a major pain! I don't blame myself for making those decisions, as I clearly understand my motives, but I could have done things differently! Oh well! No, dwelling on the past! I have to focus on making the right decisions in the here and now! I hope I can get pass this and make things better!' Trevor thought.

Trevor began to gently rub his head.

'Complaining about this is making me feel better! That dream did start out great! Despite, them not believing me I miss my friends! It was nice to experience spending time with them again, despite it not being real!' Trevor thought.

Trevor took a deep breath before he managed to fall back asleep! Thankfully, for him it was a dreamless sleep and he managed to wake up a few seconds after his mother entered his room.

"Trevor, I am happy to see you actually got some sleep for once," His mother said.

"Yes, mum!" Trevor responded.

Trevor's mum walked closer to him and checked his face.

"You still have bags under your eyes!" She said with a sigh.

Trevor looked down on the floor before responding, "Sorry mum!"

"Trevor, don't apologize! I will help you through this! You should have seen the scolding I gave to the mother of that girl!" She told him with a smile.

Trevor looked at his mother with a smile on his face. It was his first smile in a while and he knew that it most likely will be his last for a while, as well!

"Come on you better get ready!" She told him.

"Yes mum!" Trevor responded before getting up from bed.

'I can do this! I just have to get through it one day at a time!' Trevor thought.


Usually it takes me a few days to get started on new chapters, but I really wanted to work on this so I got started on this a lot sooner! Have a nice day!
