Friday, 5th August
(Holly's POV)
Today is our first day at Perible High, in the Mid realm. Back in the Human realm we always wore a uniform to school, so we're used to wearing school uniform rather getting to wear whatever we want to school and of course a few people are running around wondering what to wear. Angel was already dressed in dark denim blue ripped jeans, black boots, light-periwinkle purple T-shirt and a black hoodie. The ends of her strawberry-blonde hair were faded into grape-purple. I woke up this morning with dark pink streaks in my chocolate brown hair... at least I don't have to go through the effort myself of dying my hair... okay, bad joke. I walked out into the living room where Angel was, she was reading a book as normal, finally... a normal thing. I myself was wearing a short dark-pink dress, black jeans, black and white sneakers, and a dark-purple jacket. "How did you sleep?" I asked Angel, sitting down next to her "Couldn't, watched every door in the house after what happened the other night... how are you feeling?" she asked "My head still hurts, it feels like something is trying to get out, even the fact that I'm part witch, part demon now... it's a bit unsettling... even knowing the fact that I'm actually dead and alive". I looked at Angel as I noticed her picking up my hand and putting a gold skull ring in it, one of its eyes replaced with a dark-pink stone. "What's this?" I asked, looking back up at Angel "It's something I made everyone last night, soul charms, they're like bloodstones, but it helps control your powers" Angel smiled while showing me her necklace; it was a gold skull holding a blood-red stone. "You two look cool" Corey said, both me and Angel looked over at him as he leaned against the door frame wearing a dark-green hoodie, black pants and sneakers "Thanks, how's the shadow thing working out?" I asked. "I'm not falling into shadows anymore, but there's this thing um... it's like something or someone wants out, but- never mind, probably just nothing" Corey walked off into the kitchen "Well that was weird" "Agreed" Angel whispered back as the others finally came down, Vixen all black, Faith with red and black, Jacob in red, Lilly had white hair now as she was wearing light blue and pink.
We then walked to school, new iron bars to call hell or high school and believe me, all the kids here looked creepy cool. We walked into the office to be greeted by a teacher and an 18-year-old boy with... no eyes?
(Angel's POV)
"I'm Mr Rosemond, this is Thomas Ridgewell" Mr Rosemond introduced himself and the student "It's his last year here at Perible High so he'll be showing you Hypnotics around" Mr Rosemond said before walking off to another group of kids "Um... so you guys can call me Tom um..." he looked nervous. "Hi Tom, people call me Angel, this is Holly, Corey, Jacob, Vixen, Faith or Trixi is her nickname and Lilly" I introduced us before holding out my hand, Tom and I went to shake hands, but as soon as our hands touched, we both pulled our hands away... the magic inside of him felt like mine "Sorry, um... I'm part demon" he said, moving his hand closer to himself. After a couple of minutes of him showing us around, he showed us to our first class "This is History with Mr Colin, sometimes you'll have Mr Drift... once class is done, I'll be waiting here to show you guys the Cafeteria, you can sit with me and my friends, I mean there's only four of us at a big table- shit!" Tom looked at a clock high on the wall of the corridor "I got to go, um- see you guys after class" "See ya".
Tom ran downstairs for his class as the bell ran "Okay? So what do we do now?" Jacob asked "Go to class" I said walking into the classroom and walking straight to the back row of seats near the window. The others sat down as students started filling the room "I was thinking of having you guys call me Green again" Corey whispered as he sat down next to me- wait "I thought you hated us calling you that" "Now I see how it fits" he smiled as the teacher walked in. "Hello everyone, we got some new students in here today, but since no one gives a crap about that, I'm not gonna get them to introduce themselves to all of you. Anyway, we're moving away from Ancient Gods and Goddesses to Demon Cults and Demon Hunters" Mr Colin started. "We'll even be learning about L'Occhio di Dio (The Eye of God), also known as the 'Eye'. One of the most dangerous demon-hunting groups in the world" this guy must love monster History. "Oh, and next term we'll be learning about the wars in the Human Realm, there will be an excursion to the holocaust" the whole time I was writing everything he was saying but was mostly looking at Corey- I mean Green, him just sitting there so distracting. From the corner of my eye, I could see he was bored, but there would be times when he looked at me, see he's been caught and blush as he looked away.
Finally, the bell went and Tom was waiting where he said he would be, guiding us to the cafeteria while showing us around a bit more until we finally got there. We walked over to a table where three boys were sitting. One had dark brown hair, silver eyes, black hoodie, black jeans, pale skin and looking at his phone. The second one had chocolate brown hair which covered his golden-brown eyes, a white 'smeghead' T-shirt, light-brown jeans and was drawing. The third had spikey ginger hair, bright-blue eyes, wearing a white button-up shirt with a purple hoodie over it, light-blue jeans, sneakers, reading a History textbook. "Hey guys, this is Angel, Holly, Corey, Trixi, Vixen, Jacob and Lilly, guys this is Tord in the black, purple is Matt and the drawer is Edd" Tom introduced everyone to each other, Tom's friends smiling us as we sat down. "Wait-Angel? Gibson?" Tord asked, Norwegian accent hanging on every word "Yeah- wait Larrson?!" Tord Larrson was my pen pal from primary school back in the Human realm "Pen pal, finally get to meet you in person" Tord smiled. "So you guys monsters or human?" Matt asked as most of us froze from the question "Matt, that's rude-" "It's okay, Edd" I assured the drawer before turning to Matt "We are, um... we're Hypnotics, we only died just this week" I answered, head hanging low "Oh, sorry I- wait, your Hypnotics?!" Matt exclaimed a bit too loud and excited. "Yeah, I'm the second Hypnotic... and I know that the first is about your age" I watched faces light up, questions about to blow up in my face "If your the second, then that means your half-angel, half-demon" Edd casually asked... he was probably the only one acting normal "You should meet the Red Leader, he'd be honored to meet you" Tord smiled "And get mixed up with the Red Army? Keep your communism to yourself" Tom playfully punched Tord's arm. "Listen, Blake Drift brought you guys here to keep you a secret from the Human world. Not to join an army. Not to have questions blown up your faces. Just here to have a normal life as he did for me" Tom smiled at us.
"How about we hang out at the park after school? Completely normal" Edd suggested as he packed up his drawings "Sure!" Jacob looked a bit too excited, but he's Jacob, that's who he is.
Four Hours Later
We were at Perible park. Me, Holly, Tord and Tom sitting at a table as the others were playing with Matt's football. "The geek- Matt, reads and plays football for the school" Holly questioned, watching the others play "Yeah, Matt loves to read, but also really good at sport-" "TOM! HEADS UP!" Edd yelled, Tom caught the ball just in time throwing it back to Edd "So Tom, what type of demon are you?" I asked. "I don't know... just know I have the power to kill everyone in a room, but at least I'm not being trained in the Red Army" Tom said, playfully punching Tord's arm "It's only the Red Leader, he's gonna retired his role to his son at the end of this year, only a few months away. I'm actually a bit excited" Tord smiled before Tom poked his cheek. "You 'love' the army" "Jehovah" "Commie" both laughed "Jeg elsker deg, Tom" Tord smiled, freezing up a bit as he realized what he said in Norwegian. He said 'I love you, Tom', I don't know how I was able to understand him though. Tom started laughing a bit more "Yeah, yeah. Jeg elsker deg også, Tord" Tom winked at me, seeing the questionable on my face and nodding as if saying he understood Tord's Norwegian. "You two go out or something?" Holly asked "No, we're just been really good friends, ever since we met" Tom smiled "Really because-wait, I can read minds!" Holly exclaimed before nearly falling off the seat. "You may not want to read mine then" Tord warned "Yeah, he's actually read hentai before so-" "Who's mind do you think I was reading?!" "Hopefully not mine" Vixen smiled, sitting down next to Holly as she started... blushing? "The demon who cursed you probably was psychic, we inherit their powers so that must be one of yours" Vixen explained as he took out his phone "Hey Vixen, you never told us who you killed to become a Hypnotic" I said looking at Vixen's face turn to... I don't know, it's a look I've never seen on his face before. "I... I regret it, when I did it... I felt happy but then committed suicide because of it... I only did it for Holly" "Aawww, that's so cute, he's a keeper" Matt said throwing the ball to Jacob, but hitting him in the head "Sorry Jacob!" "I'm alright!".
"Matt's right, I call hear the bells right now" Tom joked "Yeah, maybe after Tom and Tord get married" I joked as Tord's face went a bit red "Tord would be too busy for any of us for that to happen" Tom laughed "Because his future with the army and all" he joked as Tord rubbed the back of his neck. "While on the subject... Holly" Vixen gained the half witch-demon's attention "Whilst I was human, I was too scared to ask, but now..." Vixen hesitated for a bit as Holly raised a brow "What-" "Will you go out with me?" Vixen asked and almost immediately, Holly covered her face to hide her blush. "S-sure" Holly answered... the look on Tord's face as he saw how easily Vixen asked her out "Don't worry Tord, you'll find someone" Tom smiled.
The guys soon gave us a lift back to the house, another end to another day...
