A Demon In Her Dream
Unexpected encounter
Mia clutched her schedule, navigating the unfamiliar school hallways. Lost in thought, she didn't notice the student rushing around the corner.
Just as they were about to collide, a strong hand grasped her arm, steadying her.
Ian
Whoa, careful there! *said with a warm smile*
Mia's eyes met his piercing blue eyes
Ian's gaze deepened, his eyes widening in disbelief
He whispered, as if unsure
Ian's smile faltered, and he released her arms
Ian
No, I must have mistaken you for someone else
As they parted ways, a group of girls approached Mia, their eyes flashing with hostility
Rebecca
Stay away from Ian. *She sneered* He's ours.
Mia stood tall, despite her trembling heart
Mia
I don't even know him!
Nora
You will. And when you do, remember: Ian is off-limits.
Ian reappeared, his eyes narrowing
Ian
Leave her alone. *He yelled*
Hidden presence
The girls backed off, but their warning clung to Mia, sending shivers down her spine, a constant reminder of the danger
As Ian walked Mia to her locker, his gaze cradled her face, filled with warmth
Ian
You're alive! *he whispered*
Ian's smile masked his true thoughts
Ian
Nothing. Just glad you're okay.
The bell rang, and they parted ways, but Mia sensed Ian's eyes still on her
After a productive day at school, Mia walked home, lost in thought. Ian's rescue earlier still lingered in her mind
As she turned onto her street, Amy jumped out from behind a trash can, shouting
Mia's breath caught before she playfully pushed Amy away
Mia
You scared me half to death! *laughed*
Amy
*Grinned mischievously* Gotcha!
As they chatted, Mia couldn't shake off the feeling of being watched. She glanced around, but the street was empty
Amy
I should get going. See you tomorrow
Mia nodded, watching Amy disappear into the afternoon shadows
Continuing her walk, Mia's unease grew. Shadows seemed to lengthen, casting an ominous glow
Suddenly, she sensed a strong, unsettling energy. The air thickened, and Mia's instincts screamed, warning
Awakening
A stranger with piercing eyes, scanning the area. His intense gaze locked onto Mia
Mia
Wh..who are you? *her voice barely above a whisper*
The stranger's expression remained cryptic
kai
Someone you shouldn't worry about
Mia's instincts urged her to flee, but her feet seemed rooted
Before she could react, a menacing figure emerged from the shadows - the traitor. Mia's eyes widened as she took in his twisted, demonic appearance
Fear gripped her. She tried to run, but her eyes remained fixed on the traitor
In her panic, Mia didn't notice the stranger standing behind her. As she backed away, she slightly bumped into him, accidentally touching his wrist
The stranger's eyes flashed with surprise. A surge of energy erupted from his wrist, where Mia's touch ignited a hidden symbol
The traitor, caught off guard, stumbled backwards
The stranger shouted, his voice now laced with urgency
Mia didn't need prompting. She sprinted away, glancing back to see the stranger confront the traitor
A low growl rumbled from the stranger's throat, sending shivers down Mia's spine
