I paced back and forth in my room nervously. I looked at the clock, 6:30; only fifteen more minutes till Aaron picked me up for the prom. I was a senior in high school and had been asked out by one of the most popular boys in the school, Aaron Shoften. I've had a crush on him since the seventh grade and he just now had noticed me.

I looked at the clock again, 6:35. Jeez, why does time move so slowly when you're waiting for someone? I fiddled with the charm on my necklace as I studied myself in the mirror. I looked like any other eighteen year old. I have dark brown hair, deep blue eyes and stood about five feet nine inches. My halter top matched my eyes; my skirt was black and blue with five embroidered blue roses and I wore black low heels. In my hair I wore glitter and black rose clips.

I jumped when the door bell rang. I ran down stairs and answered the door. Aaron's handsome face greeted me. "Hey, Amber, ready?" he asked coolly.

"Yeah." Shyly, I turned to my father, whom had fallen asleep on the couch. Beer bottles riddled the table next to him. The TV blared some game show. I didn't say goodbye.

At the dance, I quickly found my two best friends, Milani Leilang and Ashley Zimmerman. The two were as different as day and night. Ashley was a tall loving blonde, whose kindness showed when necessary. Milani was a short athletic black haired girl whose attitude toward people was anything but positive.

"About time you got here. Barbie here's got a crisis. I can't take her whining anymore!" Milani cried her golden eyes flared with anger.

Sure enough, I saw Ashley looking either really angry or really constipated. She was a full three inches taller than me and could look very intimidating when she needed to be. I gulped and smiled up at her.

"He broke up with me! I don't believe it! He can't do this to me!" she yelled in my face.

"I assume you're talking about Josh?" I asked.

"No, I mean Henry! That bastard!" She went on and on about how many ways he was insulting her.

About that time Aaron sauntered over and told me that we were no longer at the dance together. He then walked back to his laughing friends before I could say anything. Milani gave me as somewhat sympathetic smile. "Aaron's a jackass. You want me to beat the shit outta him?"

Rolling my eyes at her question, I shake my head no and stayed near her and Ashley for company. Okay so maybe I was a bit more crushed then I actually should have been but who wouldn't be? Life hands you a boyfriend and he dumps you. You get over it and life will hand you another one. It's an endless, yet most interesting, cycle that continues until you marry.

Suddenly, the lights in the gym went out. Everyone let out a gasp of surprise with the exception of Milani. Her gold eyes stood out in the dark and soon mine adjusted to the darkness as well. We grabbed Ashley and pulled her towards the wall. An earthquake hit the gym. All of us were thrown to the ground.

I cried out in pain as it raced across my back. Two white angel wings shot from my back just below my shoulder blades. I breathed deeply until the pain abated. Suddenly a piece of concrete came hurtling at Ashley, Milani and me. I unintentionally spread my new wings as the rock hits one. The lights flickered back on as the ground ceased shaking.

"Look out!" Ashley cried as a rafter started to fall above us. She grabbed Milani's shoulder as well as mine. I felt some strange sensation spread through my body but as quickly it appeared it vanished and we were across the gym.

"Whoa, this is getting extremely weird," Milani laughed. "But it's so cool! About time this school was livened up!"

Before I could laugh at her random comment, someone grabbed my from behind. They started choking me and my vision swam quickly. I heard the sound of flesh meeting flesh. The guy dropped me and I slid to the floor. Milani's blurry form appeared in my line of vision. She asked me something but I didn't hear it so I nodded and she disappeared. I heard her and Ashley fight the attackers off before I blacked out.
