" So how was your combined assignment? " percy asked zella with a grin.

" It was nice. We submitted it." Zella replied.

" We cant find any excitement in you." Eli asked suspiciously.

" Nothing like that. The topic was boring. By the way what about the party tonight." Zella said.

" we gonna rock it" said Eli and Percy joyously.

They greeted each other and left back home while leaving the school Zella saw Lance staring at her.But Lance was wearing something different from what he was wearing before. She got scared by thinking those words said by Lance in library.

She thought ' why did Lance changed his dress while leaving the school ? From where will he change his clothes. Is there something wrong with him. He behaved so strangely today.'

She walked towards him but he went away.

Zella left the school and she was alone today. Walking alone back to home and passing the dark forest gave Zella goosebumps.

She went through the road, kicking whatever she can find in her way. Suddenly she stepped into a big rock and rolled down. She got up from the ground and realized that beside her is the dark forest. She started breathing heavily,sweats were drooling over her face

Her eyes became blurred and for a moment

she was inside the forest, the sky turned dark and there were stars in the sky. She turned around and shocked to see that it became night so soon. She was near a camp fire and there were so many people surrounding her.Musics banged her ear and she found Eli and Percy making out in a corner of the forest holding themselves close together. There was some party going on in the forest. She saw Lance taking her and walking through the forest... " if that was me then whom am I"
