Eyes opened to reveal sapphire blue irises in stark contrast the jet black pupils. What they could see was blurry objects, a hand reached out to the side desk where the glasses were plucked and placed gently upon her face, Darcie was her name. She gave a yawn, looking towards the window where the morning sun was shining through a slit between the curtains; Darcie pushed the duvet from her and slowly got up giving a stretch. It was Monday and she had to go to college which she was pretty much looking forward to. Darcie heard her mother calling her for breakfast and she was quick to head downstairs where a couple slices of toast were waiting for her, she ate them quickly before rushing upstairs to have a shower and get changed. she put on a red t-shirt with jeans and white sneakers that had a black floral pattern on the sides. She blow-dried her hair so that it was long and wavy, her glasses were black rimmed and quite fashionable. She collected her books together and pushed them into her black bag before pulling it onto her shoulder and rushing, as she was a little late, to pull on her black coat before heading out the door, yelling goodbye to her mum then running off down the road to get to the bus stop. After about five minutes of waiting the bus came and she got onto it. it took off, Darcie leant her head against the window and looked out of it suddenly seeing a figure with short hair and a side fringe which was dyed black. It was wearing a low cut black t-shirt with jeans and converses, the figure was female and in her late teens. She was glaring towards Darcie causing her to look up quickly and stare back. As someone walked by and the young woman had disappeared causing Darcie to frown slightly. The bus finally came to a stop and Darcie headed off and looked towards the college building before getting her identification card then placed it around her neck and heading off to the turnstiles, she scanned her card before heading inside.
Darcie wasn't really the type to have a lot of friends in fact she only had one friend and her name was Jade but since she was on holiday for a few weeks it meant that Darcie was on her own but she didn't mind it. In all honesty she felt like she didn't belong in any group, she felt like an outcast. She walked towards her first class as she was studying history so sitting at the back of the class and listened to the teacher; doing her work, giving out a couple answers. It was a few hours later at lunch break and having hours of history defiantly deserved a break so sped out the door. Darcie headed to the toilets and did her business before washing her hands while she was washing her hands she felt a sudden breeze and turned to see the same young woman she saw earlier causing her to gasp loudly and step back
'Hello Darcie, nice to finally meet you' The teenager said in such a way to cause Darcie to throw a punch at her only for the mysterious girl to grab her arm and pull it behind her back. Darcie hissed with pain.
'Who are you? How do you know my name? Darcie asked feeling a little threatened after all she had no idea what kind of person could be this strong
'Me? Oh I am Shay... me and all the other demons from hell know who you are Darcie Greene' The teenager said giving a dark smirk. Then suddenly let Darcie go, who stumbled back and rubbed her wrist, giving a look of shock to what Shay had said
'Whoa whoa! Demons? Hell? There is no such thing' Darcie almost shouted, she had learnt about this kind of thing in religious studies but didn't really believe in it all. Darcie sighed heavily.
'Trust me sweetie, it's all real, the monsters in your closet... everything is real' Shay confirmed, the dark smirk still creeped along her lips. Darcie's eyes widened as she leant against the wall taking everything in but it was all so confusing it just wasn't sinking in.
'So you're a demon then? Well answer me one question, why are you here?' Darcie asked as her eyes narrowed in suspicion, she truly felt like crying as everything was confusing her right now. Monsters were real and she was a pretty big fan of the vampire movies and to know they were real, well that made her a little scared.
'Not very high ranking but yes I am a demon. I am here because you need to say yes to one simple question but to do that I'll have to take you to meet the boss' Shay admitted as she folded her arms across her chest. Darcie found herself glaring towards the demon and she shook her head.
'No, you can forget it...' Darcie declared before moving away from the wall and storming off towards the door but felt her arm being grabbed and she was pulled back.
'I wasn't asking. You will regret this' Shay whispered in Darcie's ear. Darcie pulled her arm away before running out of the bathroom and running off towards her classroom.
Since Darcie had said no, Shay was going to really make her regret that decision. Disappearing from the college bathroom, she appeared in Darcie's house where her mother was cutting up vegetables for the dinner later. Shay strutted into the kitchen which made the mother look up sharply and scream. Shay smirked evilly and plucked the knife from her hand with her eyes turning black causing the mother to scream even more.
'Shh.. it will all be over soon' Shay whispered in such a worryingly sweet tone. before plunging the knife into Darcie's mother's heart then ripped it out from her chest and placed it on the chopping board next to the partly sliced vegetables. Using the mother's blood to write on the wall.
It was now home time and Darcie was rushing back home, literally running to the bus stop and jumping up onto it, the bus sped off and Darcie hopped back off, almost flying down the road to her house and getting inside.
'Mum? You in?' Darcie called as she threw her bag down on the floor before walking into the kitchen; she saw her mother's body on the floor and she didn't scream the shock had constricted her vocal cords, she rushed to her mums side and kneeling down beside it feeling tears falling down her cheeks.
'Mum? Please... NO' Darcie managed to utter, while hugging her mother's body close to her as tears continued to fall down her cheeks. She looked up to see a message scrawled on the wall in her mother's blood.
'I bloody told you so, I'll be in touch, awaiting your answer, S'
