Kirsty was very quiet the morning after. She and Jamie were sat at the breakfast table.
"Come on and hurry up Jamie son" Terry told Jamie who was finishing off the last bit of his homework.
"Just a minute dad, I need to finish this part off" Jamie replied as Kirsty sat opposite him, looking down at the floor with her hands on her knees and looking a little uneasy. Holly noticed that the little girl seemed a little unlike herself so she crouched down in front of her and noticed that the girl was looking a little off colour.
"You ok baby?" she asked "you seem very quiet this morning, you're not sick are you?" she placed her hand on the girl's forehead "you do feel like you have a temperature, maybe I should keep you off school today."
"I'm fine Mom, I want to go to school" Kirsty replied with a little irritation in her voice as she pulled away from Holly.
"Ok honey, go and get dressed and be down in ten minutes." Half an hour later she and Jamie were waiting outside for the school bus when they saw Chris and Regan coming out of their house. Regan saw Jamie and ran over to him.
"Isn't your mom taking you to school?" Jamie asked.
"She says I need to act like a normal person, even if I am the daughter of a famous actress" she replied with a slight giggle "I think she's become kind of different since I was sick."
"Sick?" Jamie asked confused.
"Yeah I was really sick about a month ago" Regan replied "But the weird thing is, I can't really remember much except having weird hallucinations and my bed shaking." Suddenly, kirsty looked up in horror.
"My bed was shaking last night" she piped up.
"What did you say?" Regan asked. Before Kirsty could replie,the bus arrived.
"What was she talking about?" Regan asked Jmaie as the three of them got on the bus.
"Apparently, according to mom and dad, Kirsty had a weird dream about her bed shaking last night" Jamie said.
"It wasn't a dream it was real you son of a b*tch" Kirsty yelled causing the other passengers to look at the girl in a weird way.
"Kirsty, what is the matter with you today?" Jamie asked.
"Mind your own buisness" Kirsty snapped before plonking herself down. Jamie just shook his head and he and Regan went to sit further down.
"I don't know what is the matter with her lately" Jamie said "she never acts like this."
That afternoon, Chris had gone over to the Jacksons for cup of tea and a chat.
"So, how has Kirsty been since yesterday?" she asked.
"Well last night, she had a nightmare about her bed shaking but the weird thing was, there seemed to be a funny smell coming from her room" Terry said.
"What kind of smell?" Chris asked.
"Sort of burning and there was noises coming from the attic" Terry added before shaking it off "probably squirrels or something." Chris nodded and took a small sip from her tea.
"So, how was she this morning?" Chris asked "I saw her and Jamie across the street waiting for the school bus this morning."
"She was fine" Holly replied "quiet but she insisted on going to school today."
Over at Kirsty's school, the little girl was sat on a bench in the playground watching the other children playing. A group of four girls made their way towards her and one girl who looked like the leader stood in front of her.
"Hey freak" she taunted as her friends snickered behind her "been talking to your imaginary friend lately freak."
"Go away Tasha" Kirsty hissed. The girl, Tasha just chuckled and threw a stone at Kirsty.
"You know, you could hang around with us but you see, I don't want freaks in my gang who go around talking to themselves little freak, freak freak freak from freak land." Kirsty could feel something burning inside off her, like someone or something had taken over her body, giving her strength beyond that of a ten year old girl and before she could stop herself, she launched herself at Tasha and pushed her to the ground as her friends screamed in horror.
"You need teaching a lesson you little bitch" Kirsty hissed before viciously clawing at Tasha's face whilst hissing like a wild animal. Many kids in the playground gathered round to watch as Kirsty viciously attacked Tasha. "Bitch,you fucking Bitch" she hissed as she clawed away. Luckily, one of the kids had gone to get the principal Mr. Johnson because he was now running towards the scene.
"Let me through" he said as he pushed his way through the circle of kids before seeing Kirsty on top of Tasha hissing viciously and clawing at her face.
"Kirsty Jackson" Mr. Johnson said in horror as he grabbed Kirsty off Tasha. Kirsty screamed, fell to the ground and began twisting in a disturbing manner. Many of the kids looked on horrified as the girl twisted violently before her eyes rolled to the back of her head and fainted to the Johnson ran over to her and picked her up off the ground.
"I want you all to get inside now and someone take Tasha to the nurse's office" he instructed.
"She's a psychopath" Tasha yelled as two of her friends helped her to her feet. Her face was covered in scratches. "She needs locking up" Tasha yelled.
"Enough Tasha, I'll talk with her" Mr Johnson said.
Back at the Jackson house, Terry was tidying around in Kirsty's room and swore he could feel another presence in the room with him. Holly was downstairs making dinner when the phone rang.
"Hello this is Holly Jackson speaking, what, oh my god, when, Jesus, what happened, oh my god, well we're on our way right now." She put the phone down and called Terry from the bottom of the stairs.
"What is it?" Terry asked as he ran downstairs.
"There's been a situation with Kirsty, we need to get to the school right now" Holly said. The pair of them got in the car and quickly drove to Kirsty's girl had regained consciousness and was now sat in Mr Johnson's office.
"You're parents are on their way" he told her. Pretty soon, Holly and Terry came through the door.
"Oh Kirsty, what has happened?" Holly asked as she sat with her daughter.
"Apparently, she attacked one of the girls" Mr Johnson replied "like a wild animal she was."
"But she hasn't been herself lately" Terry said.
"Well in that case, you should take her to see a psychiatrist, find out the reason as to why she is acting like this" Mr Johnson informed.
"I don't even remember doing it mommy" Kirsty said as tears fell down her cheeks "all I remember is Tasha Benson and her friends teasing me and then I woke up in here."
"I don't believe this" Terry muttered. Holly looked at Mr Johnson.
"What's going to happen to her?" she asked.
"I have no choice but to suspend Kirsty until she learns to control her violent outbursts." Mr Johnson firmly informed "I can't have any more of my students at risk."
"But you heard what she said" Terry pointed out "she doesn't remember doing it."
"That's no excuse for Kirsty to lash out and attack another student, it's unacceptable" Mr Johnson replied "miss Jackson is excluded until further notice."
"Fine" Terry sighed "Come on Kirsty." Kirsty picked her coat up from the chair and headed out the door with her parents.
