Dawn's P.O.V. (Picture is Dawn)

I was tired. I had to take a long test, and I was helping the teacher. I told Alice to go home by herself, because I had asked Catherine to walk home with her. No one else could pick her up, since we were orphans. I was helping the teacher clean up the classroom. We just had science, and did an experiment, but no one seemed to bothered to clean up. I felt pity for the teacher, so I decided to help her. It took us one hour to clean up the classroom completely. By the time I finished, my hands were swollen from washing the beakers. Once I washed my hands, I packed my belongings and left the school.

As I walked back home, I heard a lot of gossip and conversations. They were the same, stupid, boring topics. One, however, caught my ear. The earl, or the watchdog, of England had a secret. No one is quiet sure what it is but many of the conspiracy theories point to his butler. Some say that his butler is a spy from France. Others say that the butler was secretly the earl's dad, that died two years ago. I even heard someone say that they thought that he was a girl! I heard many outrageous ideas, and ridiculous theories. I knew the truth though. The real secret was that the earl's butler was a demon. I knew this because I overheard mother and father talk about it. I had, and still have, a tendency to be very curious. This trait has also been in Alice. We got this from our father, he was a very curious man indeed, or at least that's how I remembered him. Oh how I miss mother and father dearly. I would do any thing to see them again.

When I reached my house, I laid down on the couch. I hated school so much, I need a break from it. It was so peaceful and quiet, I could finally relax. Alice must not be home. I closed my eyes, about to drift into a deep sleep, when I realized something. If Alice wasn't home, she would have let me know, I specifically told her to do so. She probably forgot, now stop stressing yourself Dawn, a voice in my head told me. I felt very sleepy and drifted to sleep.
