Chapter 4: Despair!

Sora's P.O.V

As I walk to the principal's office I sighed as I tried to figure out what happened with the teacher. "Was that fire... was it really there?" As I walked for a few minutes I heard someone say something about the forest outside of town. "Hey, did you hear? About the forest, just outside of town?" When he said that I was about to walk away, when he said something that made me want to listen. "Ya, before third period, there was a bright light. It almost seemed like the forest was on fire." I looked down as I recall my dream. "Wait the forest... a bright light... fire... that sounds like my dream..." when I looked up they were gone as I remembered the classroom and everything. "What is going on today? Everything is different... my body... it feels like it's on fire at random... if the heat continues to build up... my body bursts into flames..." Just then I heard a voice. The same demonic voice as before. "Looks like your confused... Would you like help?" I heard the demonic voice say, I respond with. "Who's there, and what do you want with me!" I yelled out loud as the demonic voice responded. "If you want answers... go to the forest..."

I looked around as I tried to find out where the voice is coming from. "What the hell is going on..." I started to walk to the principals office trying to figure out what is happening to me. "What is going on right now? Fire bursts around my body!? I'm hearing voices!" After a few minutes of walking, I eventually arrived at the principals office and knocked on his door. "Come in!" He said as I slowly open the door. "Sit down boy!" He said as I quickly sat down, with him glaring at me. "S-so sir... about what happened on there... I promise what you saw, won't happen again." I started to explain, till he cut me off with. "I know it won't..." He started with a slight pause and sigh he looked down for a sec, then back at me. " it won't happen again, because you're out of here." When he said that I looked at him with a confused look on my face. "Wait... are you expelling me?!" I asked slightly frustrated. He nodded and looked down a bit. "Yes, you are no longer a student of this school. I want you to get all your things from your locker and get out of this school." I looked down and just nodded in agreement. "Y... yes sir... I understand."

I got up from my seat and headed out of his office, when the door closed he said under his breath. "It's for your own good..." I walked down the hall running into cherry. "Hmm, hey Sora!" She greeted me walking up to me smiling. "Oh... hey..." I responded as her smile quickly faded. "Hey are you ok... what happened in there?!" She asked me as I could hear the worry In her voice. I sighed and just kept walking to my locker as she stayed behind. "I'll explain later... see ya ..." I said as I walked away from cherry, with her just looking at me. I turned right and finally reach my locker, but when I open it I hear Mia and Rose talking to each other as they walk past me. "Oh hey Sora! How did it go?" Rose asked me as I looked down. "... not good... you should just forget about me..." I said as I started to put my stuff into my bag. "What?! Why? What happened in there!" I heard Mia respond to me. I sighed as I felt my body heat up. I realized what was about to happen and closed my locker as I grip my bag and started to walk away. "Just forget me... it's for the best..."

Mia's P.O.V.

As I saw Sora walk away I could tell he was sad... but I didn't know what to say... I just wanted to help him... the first friend I had here... my only friends besides my sister Rose... I didn't want to lose him... "Hey Sora what's wrong!" I said to him as he just kept walking, I noticed it was getting hotter but I still tried to call out to him. "Aren't we your friends?!" When I said that I felt it get hotter in here as he stopped and looked at me and Rose crying. "Yes... you two are my friends... but you shouldn't be near me..." he said as I could hear the sadness in his voice. "Why?! Why shouldn't we be near you?!" I basically yelled as I started to approach him. "Because I'm... I'm a monster..." he looked down as I continued to approach him, and I could feel it get hotter the closer to him.

I felt someone grab my hand as I looked to see who it was. "Sora you are not a monster... you're a human... so don't you think that you are." Rose said as she was holding my hand. We both approached sora as it just got hotter and hotter. "G-get away! It's not safe near me!" We kept getting closer as I noticed that someone else was right next to me and my sis. "Sora! Do you really think that!" I looked At the person and noticed it was the girl from before. I think Sora called her... cherry?... I think that's right. All three of us we so close to sora as it got way to hot, but we still continue to move closer to him. "I... I... I said... GET AWAY FROM ME!!! ITS NOT SAFE NEAR ME!!!" When he said that his entire body bursted with flames blowing us back burning us a bit. All three of us looked at him as we tried to put out the fire. "W-what the hell..." I heard cherry say as I look at him seeing fire around his body.

A few seconds later the fire fades. "Like I said... I'm a monster... you should just forget about me!" When Sora says that, he turns around and runs out of the school. As we stand up a crowd of people start to form. "What happened here?" I heard one person ask. "It's just like what happened in the classroom." I heard another say as we look at them. "Was it that kid again?" Another kid said as they kept talking about what happened. As they continue to talk all three of us look at the way Sora ran.

Sora's P.O.V.

As I ran out of the school I wanted to run home, but I didn't because I knew cherry would be home in a few hours. I didn't want to put her in danger... "I'm a monster..." I thought to myself as I continued running till I ran out of breath. I stopped running in alley as I leaned up against the wall. "This should be far enough..." I looked down and sighed. "This is for the best... they shouldn't be near me... I'm a monster... a freak..." I started to cry a bit as I started to slide down the wall crying. "Why is this happening to me!?..." I yelled out as I continued to cry, I felt like I was alone... "why me... what did i do to deserve this!!" I continued to yell as I kept crying. I felt my body heat up "WHAT THE HELL DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS!!!" I felt my body burst into flames again as I kept crying. The more I cry, the bigger the fire gets around me. "WHY!! I HAVE NOTHING NOW!"

Soon the fire was above the roofs of the building that are connected to the alleyway. I hear the same voice from before. "I see your starting to break down... heh..." I kept crying as I looked around for the voice. "LEAVE ME ALONE!! THIS IS YOU'RE FAULT!!" I yelled as I heard the voice chuckle. "If you want to end your pain... go to the forest..." he laughed as his voice faded away. "The forest..." I stopped crying slowly, with the fire slowly fading. "Right... if I go there... I May be able to fix this..." I started to walk out of the alleyway as I walked down the road, and headed down the path leading to the forest.
