Serena stared at him in shock. This isn't happening. The man who threatened to kill her yesterday was not standing in front of her pretending to be a teacher.

"Why hello Serena. I didn't think you'd be in my class,"

"Yeah right," she mumbled.

"What did you say?" Micheal asked

Serena felt anger build up in her mind. This has got to be a dream. And in a dream, you can do what you want. "I said yeah right" She shot back. If she's in a dream, he can't hurt her. If he did, she would just wake up and get on with her life.

"Its nice to see you again. How are you?" Micheal asked her with an obviously fake kindness in his voice.

"Fine until you came and ruined it," Serena said. If this isn't a dream, she's not going to play helpless little victim. And Micheal will not try anything stupid in front of the class, she knew that much. Serena figured that if she could get Micheal to explode in front of the class, someone would hear him and come in to help.

"Well, your going to have to put up with me for awhile so I suggust you be cooropitive,"

Mina leaned in and asked "Do you know him?"

"Yeah. He's an idiot,"

"Would you like to repete that?" Micheal asked dangerously.

"Yes. You're a fucking idiot," Serena said. Micheal was silent for a moment.

"Do you want to get me mad Serena? Because I do bad things when I'm mad," Micheal said in alow, even moredangerous voice. Serena felt a pang of fear for a second but ignored it. This has got to be a dream. And since its a dream, she should have her fun, right? Everyone stared as Serena and Micheal had a silent argument with their eyes.

"Serena, can I talk to you for a second outside?"

"Anything you can sayin front ofme, you can sayin front ofeveryone," she said.

"I want to talk to you ALONE!" Micheal was almost shouting.

"Okay okay, cool your jets," He led Serena outside and shut the classrom door. He quickly made sure no one was looking before he grabbed her by the throat, lifted her two inches off the ground, and slammed her into the wall.

"Listen you little bitch. I know exactly what your thinking. This is not a dream. You can't do what you want and expect me to stand aside and watch. I will not hesitate to kill Darian,"

"I don't even like him," she choked out even though deep down, she did like him. Alot.

"Don't lie to me Serena. I know you do. I can see it in you. I also know you would do anything for him. And Mina, Raye, Lita, Amy, and Rini,"

"How do you know them?" Serena asked, suddenly afraid.

"I've been watching you for a long time. I know you about the same, if not, better, then you know yourself. You mess with me, I swear, I will make sure all your godamn friends die in the worst way possible. You better not do anything to fuck me up. GOT IT?"

Serena nodded and felt her lungs crying for air. She picked up her fist and punched him in the stomach, causing him to let go of her. She immidiatly got up andran into the classroom. Micheal came in shortly after her. Since it was early dissmissal, class was already over.

"What did he talk to you about out there?" Mina asked. "We heard a thud. It sounded like someone was being thrown against the wall.

Serena said "Oh, he just lectured me on how I need to respect him and all that crap," she said, not meeting her eyes.

"Serena, I'd like to see you after everyont leaves," Micheal said but she blew him off and ran out of the classroom.

Meanwhile, Mina looked as Serena ran out of the room. This isn't right, she thought It sounded like she was being thrown against the wall. Mina considered it Nah, she wouldn't lie to me. Min convinced herself that nothing was wrong and left.

Unknown to Mina, Micheal was staring at her.


Serena ran to the arcade. Maybe talking to Andrew would help. When she got there, Darien called out to her.

"Hey meatball head, whats up?" Serana had to tell someone, she HAD to and since Andrew wasn't around, she'd have to talk to Darian. If he didn't belive her, she'd show him her cut.. And Micheal wasn't here so he wouldn't hear her.

"Darian, I need to talk to you," she said, sliding into the chair next to him.

"You look like hell,"

"I know. forget that. Listen I..." Serena looked and nearly fell over her chair when she saw Micheal comming out of a car and walking into the arcade. The whole time, he was watching her.

"What do you want?" Darian asked, suddenly getting a bad feeling.

"N.. nothing," she stammered. She climbed out of her chair and grabbed her backpack. "I have to go," She walked out of the arcade quickly. Darian looked at what she seemed to be looking at and he saw him. A man with shockingly green eyes and dark hair. He seemed to be looking at her.

And Darian didn't like the way he was looking at her.
