Chapter 5 Pixel
"I was just surprised seeing that in real life" she replied
That was not what I expected from her
I thought she could see ghosts
I felt disappointed
Dorothy on her own was a badass
She kept ignoring me
"So what do you have with Zita?" Jenny asked bringing me back from thought
"A friend" I replied
"Any problem?" I asked
I sensed something fishy
"No, so why were you not in school yesterday?" She asked
That was our first time talking, I don t have to start it with lies
I just told her that I lost my Dad the previous day
I don t have to give her details
??????
….. Victor POV ??
Am Victor Bonny by name
I was among Jason s gang
Zita has been my crush ever since I knew her but she never give me chance to speak with her
I felt bad when I saw the new guy with her
I had to interfere
From the look, I could tell that the new guy wasn t interested in her
When he left to the washroom, I was able to tell Zita my feelings for her but she rejected me
I had to leave in disappointment
Zita was still there waiting for the new guy
I had nowhere in mind to go
I needed to make a plan against the new guy
I started walking around the whole school
Maybe the pain might ease
I took the stairs walking upstairs
I got to the second floor which was where our classroom was
I walked passed it and took another stairs that led to the school main hall
I couldn t believe it when I saw the new guy with the almighty Jenny
Jason s girlfriend
I guess my plan has been given a solution
I smiled because Jason would be coming back the following week
…..Zita POV ??
It s true that love at first sight was very hard for me to believe
But I happened to be a victim to it
I couldn t tell what actually attracted me to David but I fell for him
I waited for him at the cafeteria for close to one hour but he didn t show up
I decided to check on him at the washroom he said that he went to use
But I was told that he wasn t there
I became confused
??????
….. David POV ??
Jenny never ran out of interesting stuff that could hold a conversation
She was really lively
I recalled what Zita said about her having a boyfriend
I was a little bit jealous
Even Jenny confirmed it
I just had to let it go
"So why did you leave your former school?" Jenny asked
"My late Dad was transferred to this country, so I have to" I replied while she nodded
Meaning that she got it
Just then, the wind storm started
It was blowing heavily
I knew what was next
"You need to go now" I tried telling her
I know she wouldn t buy it just like that
"What s the problem?" She asked
I couldn t tell if she could feel the wind or not
"Someone is coming, please take another door while I take here" I said pointing at the entrance where we followed
I was just talking, not knowing if there was another door
All I was thinking was for her to go before the demon enters me
I know once it enters me, I wouldn t be able to control myself any longer
I felt it entering me
I turned back and ran almost out of the hall when it enters completely
I tried so hard not to scream because I was sure that it would call more attention but I wouldn t like to take Jenny s life
I lost myself
My eyes changed to complete red
My mouth turned to black and bloods were flowing down
I felt thirsty for blood
My fingers grew claws and my breathing speed increases
I know I was no longer myself
I turned to devour Jenny but surprisedly, she was gone
I couldn t believe it as someone tapped me from the back
I was just turning when my body returned to my normal self
It was Victor
??????
…… Jenny POV ??
The conversation was becoming more interesting when David suddenly said I should go
I was just confused looking at him, I thought he was joking but it sounds so serious
He turned running towards the door while I watch him
He stopped at that spot
I smiled thinking maybe he was joking when someone dragged me from the back and we left following the other door
"Let go of me!" I shouted but the person gave me a deaf ears
It was a female but I couldn t recognize her from the back
We stopped at a passage which was a little bit far from the Hall but there was no one passing by
She turned to face me and she was our new female student
She was breathing heavily
"You? I don t even know your name"
"What is the meaning of that?" I asked
"Sorry for that but let me start with, my name is Dorothy" she introduced but I didn t say a word because that was not all she supposed to say
"Actually, you just have to understand things sometimes" she said but I wasn t getting it
"How do you mean?" I asked in surprised
"Did you see that?" She returned the question
I don t even know if she was just playing around
"If you are interested in making friend with me, just tell me and stop this acting" I said
I was already getting pissed off
"You are mistaking" she tried saying but I waved it off and walked passed her
??????
….. Dorothy POV ??
That Jenny of a girl was just acting rude
I was in the classroom checking out my books after the break period
I was still studying when a girl greeted me
I raised up my head to attend to her
"Please my name is Zita, I don t know if am bothering you?" She asked while I smiled
Making friends was all I wished
"Of course no" I replied
I was still thinking if I could tell her to sit
"Have you seen David?" She asked
I was confused
I wondered why she must ask me that when she was seeing only me
But I had to maintain
"No, any problem?" I returned the question while she shakes her head negatively and left
My mind ran to David
"Where could he be?" I asked myself and focused back to read
It didn t take long when I felt the demons noise
It was close to our door post
It laughed and laughed
As it continued going but I tried controlling myself
My mind ran to David
I stood up and walked out
I followed where it was going
It was upstairs
The main hall
I have been there twice and I knew the shortcuts to the hall
I took the other side and ran as fast my legs could carry me
Luckily the room at that side was Labs
So I wouldn t draw anyone s attention
I wanted to rush into the hall when I heard David asking Jenny to leave
"So he is aware of it?" I asked myself
I could see pity on his eyes but Jenny wasn t making any move
David turned running towards the entrance then I walked in properly
Jenny was busy looking at him making her not to know when I came in
The demon was too fast to entered him before he could run out of the hall
I could hear it laughing from inside
I used the opportunity to drag Jenny out of the hall following the same side I took
I had to do it before Jenny will be aware of what was happening
±
Jenny surprised me more when she said that she didn t get what I was saying
I guess it was even better because I never wished for her to know it
It was a relief when she walked downstairs instead of going back to meet him
I thought I had to try out what my uncle told me, about making him friend
??????
….. David POV ??
It was Sunday afternoon as I sat in the Balcony surfing the net
My Mom was not around
She went to visit my Dad s people concerning what happened
I was asked to stay back because of my study although I tried protesting
The whether was bright and sunny
The breeze was so good to my liking
I do a little reading through browsing and my books
Then give it a break with games because all work and no play makes a jack a dull boy
Our house help was in her room while our gateman was in his duty post
They were released that very day the police people took them
I came across a joke and couldn t help my laughter
I was busy laughing when the wind storm started again
My eyes widened
I remembered our house help and gateman
'what am I supposed to do I thought
I was really getting sick of this
"No, no, no" I said when I saw our gateman coming towards me
"Small boss, please I want to rush somewhere" he said while I nodded immediately so that he would go
I don t even know why the demon was delaying
Just as the gateman left, the demon shows up
That scary face of it made me to jump up from my seat
"That s so bad" I said
"I suppose to be saying that because you just jumped up" the demon said
"That s because of that thing you called face, so scary" I responded while it laughed
"Can you just stop using me?" I asked really angry
"You no other option because you can t control me, you just have to kill your loved ones for me" the demon said
"What!!?" I shouted because I don t know who would be next
"Can you just stop shouting?" The demon requested
Just then, the living room s door opened as our house help ran out
"Sir, are you alright?" She asked really worried and scared
"Can t you see it?" I asked her while she started looking around the whole compound
"See what, Sir?" She returned the question
"I can only make her to do so, she can t see me" the demon said
I looked at it then to our house help
I managed to smile
"Just kidding, am okay" I replied while she nodded
"Am just scared, I thought maybe that same thing that attacked the big boss has attacked you" she said while I smiled shaking my head negatively
'when it is I thought but couldn t say it out
She nodded before walking inside
"Why have you been hiding from me but only come whenever you want to use me?" I asked the demon as I managed to sit
"Because that s the only place you are useful to me" the demon replied
I wished I could kill it for the second time
"Is there no other way to take your revenge than this way?" I asked
"This is the best way I would love" the demon said smiling
"So, can I hear your story now?" I asked
"I wanted to give you the details now but someone is coming, it can t be possible today" the demon replied
Before I could say a word, it has gone to the thin air
I scratched my hair before collapsing on the seat
The gate got opened as I was forced to raise my head
It was COP Kelly
"Good afternoon officer" I greeted standing up
He nodded instead of saying something
He narrowed his eyes walking around the balcony
I was just confused because I can t buy it, if they say that COP Kelly could see ghosts
"Hope there s no problem?" I asked looking at him
He stopped walking
"It was here" he replied
"Who?" I asked just for him to say it out
"The same thing that attacked your father, where is your mother?" He asked
"She travelled" I replied
"Okay, you need to be careful because I must say that it ran when he feels me coming" he replied
That was when I know that there was a war because he might catch up with me one-day
??????
….. Jason POV ??
I was really upset when Victor told me that a new guy in the school was fleeting with Jenny
We arrived on Sunday
I was told to take a rest the following day but I refused because I needed to deal with that guy
I got dressed up and sped off to school with my driver
When I got to school, Jenny was already in school
When I got to the door post, she was busy with her book making her not to see me
I used my eyes and did a sign to Victor who was at the back and he shakes his head negatively showing that the guy was not yet in school
I walked and stood before Jenny
She couldn t believe it when she saw me
Joy was written all over her face
She smiled and stood up hugging me tight
Just then, a junior student walked in after taking permission
She delivered the message which was that Jenny was needed by a teacher
?????
…. David POV ??
I stepped down from the car when we arrived at school
I bids the driver goodbye while I headed to the class
I met with Jenny who greeted me and told me that she was called
I smiled and she walked away
I walked straight to class
Immediately I walked in, I heard someone shouts
"Yes!" I traced the voice and it was Victor
I smiled thinking that he was greeting me
I haven t walked half of the class when a guy stood up and stopped before me
He was well built with muscular body
That was my first time seeing him in the class but I was confused why he was blocking my way
"Please, I want to pass" I said politely but he held my cloth on the neck
I tried releasing it but he was stronger
"So you the new guy who s not afraid of me?" He asked
"What s the problem?" I asked back
Just then, the wind storm started
"Oh no" I managed to say
??????
….. Dorothy POV ??
It was my first time seeing this guy but the way Jenny hugged him, shows that he must be one of them
I was ready to make friend with David so as to help him
Immediately he walked in, I smiled
He was really handsome for him to be tormented by the demon
He was almost closed to our seat when the guy blocked him
I was just confused on that sudden thing
I thought maybe they knew each other and might be having issues not until he asked him that stupid question
It was dawn to me that Jenny was his girlfriend
I could hear the demons noise but it was not close
"Let go of him Jason" a girl said
I traced the voice immediately and it was who they called Benita
'Jason? I said inwardly
"Jason let go of him please" another voice from the door post said
I turned to Jason
I could see that he was surprised
Just then, the demon shows up
"Let go of him Jason!!!!" I screamed
He would surely be in trouble I thought because the demon won t spare him
…. Jason POV ??
I was just amazed and confused because of what I was seeing
How everyone was supporting the new guy
Even Jenny and another girl who I was sure must be a new comer as well
I just had to let go of him when I saw Benita coming towards our direction
I know what she was capable of doing
Even my gang won t try touching her because of what my father did to them the last time they beats her just because she challenged me as usual
"Oh no, no" the new guy said as he kept his head down
I could see his hands vibrating but he didn t bother raising up his head
I guess he must be controlling his anger
I was getting scared, maybe that was why they were asking me to let go of him
Someone walked and stood beside me
I turned to look and it was Victor
"Is he a hot tempered type?" I asked referring to Victor who smiled
"Something like that" He replied
Everybody was just watching and I could tell that they were confused
He has created a big scene
"No o!!" The new guy shouted and turned, raising up his head
He meant to run out of the class when Victor held him from behind
"Hey" Victor said as the guy stopped
I could hear the new guy breathing heavily
I guess his temper has gotten down but being a hot tempered type can never stop me from controlling him, anytime I want
He slowly turned around
??????
….. Dorothy POV ??
Immediately Jason of a guy let go of David,
But it was already late because the demon was already taking over him
David bent his head in order for them not to see what was happening
He tried struggling with it but the demon was undefeatable
I was just watching the demon while it kept laughing at me as it finds its way in David s body
I couldn t tell why it was taking long for it to enter
I guess it just wanted to suffer him first
Just then, a guy walked closer to where he was standing with Jason
As the demon has finally possessed him, David knowing what would happen next, decided to run out of the class but the guy who just walked in the spot held him from the back and said as if he was greeting him
I could see the demon flew out of David s body
It just looked around before flying out of the class
There must be something about the guy
I wondered how
I was just confused because the guy did not even look at the demon when it flew out of the body
I could see that David was also surprised
He managed to smile to the guy
Jenny walked in entirely because she has been standing at the door post all this while
I wished she didn t see that
She took Jason s hand and walked to their seat
David gently sat beside
He didn t bother greeting me as usual
"Hi, Good Morning" I greeted
He turned in disbelief knowing that I have been avoiding him since he came into the school
"How was your night?" I asked because he hasn t found his voice yet
"Are you for real?" He asked instead while I smiled
"How do you mean?" I returned the question
"You always avoid, why the sudden change?" He indirectly returned the question again
"At least we aren t enemy" I said smiling while he smiled back
"Anyway, thanks, my night was good and I hope yours was fine?" He asked while I nodded instead
"So, what s up with Jason of a guy, as in, is he always like this?" He asked diverting to another topic
"Actually, I don t know because am just new as you are and today is my first time seeing him" I replied
"Oh, I see" he simply said and started bringing out his books
"Do you know the guy who held you back when you was about to run out of the class?" I asked
"Oh, his name is Victor, I actually met him on Friday" he replied
I wanted to ask him more about Victor but I waved it off
??????
…..Faith POV ??
The previous week, After noticing that Jason was no longer in the school
I asked after him while I was told that he travelled and would be back the following week
Due to that, I went on a vacation also
He was the reason why I was in that school
So there was no point in being in the school, since he wasn t there
That Monday morning, I knew that Jason was back
I could perceive it
I transformed myself to a beautiful girl that I normally use whenever I want to visit humans
I stood under the biggest tree in the forest as I watched Jason through a big mirror that was attached on the tree
I could see their experiences with a demon that wants to penetrate into a guy
But unfortunately, they were able to chase it out
I looked closely at the demon
It was that same demon that was casted out of their domain after requesting for a revenge
It has been 5years since they casted it out from their domain but the demon as human being was killed 20years ago
Which means it was after 15years of the death that the demon requested for a revenge
It was asked to exercise some patience because they had a very big occasion going on in the land of the dead
But the demon was greedy and Its demand was too much
The demon decided to do it under it own power
Due to that unrespectful decision, the demon was casted out from the domain
And since then, the demon has been wandering around the whole world, seeking for souls to terminate forgetting those it wants to take its revenge on
Immediately the demon left the class, Jenny walked in and took Jason s hand
I smiled but was somehow jealous
"Don t forget what your assignment is" a voice came from behind
I know it must be the queen mother
I didn t bother turning around as I fixed my eyes on the mirror
The queen mother walked and stood beside me
"Am just planning on a very good day" I replied
"You already know that you have a rival, that demon doesn t stand with anybody" she said while I nodded
"And one more thing" she added
I was forced to turn, looking at her
She did the same
"There are two people that you need to stay away from" she said
"Who and who?" I asked
"I will only tell you one person, then you need to find out the other" she paused and turned back to the mirror
But I didn t take off my eyes from her
"It s a lady, she just came into the school, her name is Dorothy" she said
"Does she have power?" I asked
"No she doesn t, she only has the gift of seeing demons and gods, which means she stands in a chance of seeing who you really are and if you don t act fast, she might posses power" she replied
She stretched her hand towards the mirror as a lady s face was shown
She was smiling, discussing something with the guy that the demon wanted to posses earlier
Dorothy of a girl was very beautiful
She looks so calm
"I will just have to kill her before it s too late" I said
Although I felt for her because she would just die
"I think that will be the best option and you need to act fast" she responded
"What about the other person?" I asked
"Like I said, you will have to discover the person and that person has the power and I don t think you can kill Jason without killing both of them" she replied
It was a difficult task, I don t have the talent of vision
The worst part was that I don t know if it was a male or female
