Chapter 11
In her room, Raven took out an old photo album that depicted her life. It read, "Raven Baxter" on the front in beautiful gold, glittery curvature writing. Raven opened it and smiled. There she was, as an infant. Her birth certificate and foot print were neatly placed under the picture.
The next few pages were filled with more pictures of Raven as an infant, and then as a toddler…and then it skipped ahead as if no pictures were taken from age four to age nine.
There they were, the "Four 4th Graders of the Apocalypse." Even then they all dressed the same…Raven and Alana in the front, Muffy and Loca behind them. Loca still was unnaturally tall way back when.
All eyes flashed pure evil, even her own.
There were pictures of birthday parties and school plays…one in which Alana was the tooth fairy and Raven was tooth decay.
"So, I guess it worked out for Alana after all." Raven said to no one, shaking her head.
In almost every picture, Raven, Alana, Muffy and Loca were together, as if they were all linked like Siamese twins…except there were four of them.
The Junior High School pictures came next. There were a few with the four girls in them, but then it changed terribly.
There were pictures of what looked like torture. Three of the girls were standing around a victim, laughing at the poor person's pain. There were pictures of Loca and Alana giving wedgies, Rave, Muffy and Alana hitting kids with dodge balls, Alana, Muffy and Loca laughing at a kid covered in toilet paper.
Raven and Muffy laughing at a kid covered in tomato sauce…
Loca was holding a very frightened kid a few feet off the ground…
Suddenly Alana wasn't in any more pictures and Bianca had taken her place. Still, the subject of the pictures remained the same.
Most of the album was full of this, but it was the back portion that made Raven sick.
The section was marked, "Eddie and Chelsea" as if the evil Raven of this world like to regularly look at just this part of the book.
There was a familiar looking picture of Bianca, Loca, and Muffy laughing while Eddie seemed to be twitching in pain. The lizard down the pants, Raven thought sadly.
There was a picture of Chelsea hanging from an open school locker by her jacket as Raven, Loca and Bianca laughed on.
There was a picture of what looked like Bianca pulling Eddie's pants down in the middle of a crowded hallway. Eddie's face was scrunched in embarrassment. Loca and Muffy were pointing and laughing.
The picture of Chelsea's "Hostile Makeover" was there too. Chelsea's sad clown face pulled at Raven's heart strings.
There were other horrible pictures…like Chelsea covered in chocolate syrup. You could see she wasn't only hurt, she was steaming mad. There were a few pictures of Raven pushing a pie into Eddie's face.
There was one where Bianca and Loca were holding Chelsea down while Muffy seemed to be writing LOSER on her forehead with what looked like black permanent marker. All the picture got was an LOS, but you could tell where it was headed.
Raven slammed the book shut and threw it across the room; tears were streaming down her face.
"What kind of a monster am I?" She whispered, grabbing a pillow and hugging it tightly.
The things she did to people…especially Eddie and Chelsea…it was no wonder Chelsea was so angry and hesitant to help.
"I've got to change it back. I've got to." Raven chanted as she cried.
Suddenly, a light bulb exploded in her head. Maybe if she went back to the magic store, she thought through her tears, Samantha could help…
