Lightning Doesn't Strike Twice!

Chapter 1

Hey, are you ready to fight the boys? Tiff, "You know it, don't let them take base!" {Tiff the Angel Scouts leader} A team made up of mainly girls and two boys. Ryan and Bo.

Kaysi, you keep them distracted."I will lead the girls to their base. Got it boss; they won't know what hit them!

Recess was always the same tone chase the boys and tag them with cooties and gain points till the bell rings. Loud kids screaming and chasing each other. Others guarding the base.

For us, the base was the monkey bars. For the boys, it was the big slides. There were more of them than us.

Side note: Cootie- A child is said to "catch" cooties through any form of bodily contact, proximity, or touching of an "infected" person or from a person of the opposite gender normally.

Tag got you, Josh. Point for the girls. How about you Clayton? {Leader of the Evil soldiers} The boys-only group.

Circle circle dot dot now I got my cootie shot! What is that?

Sorry, but now I can't be infected by cooties. Wha…?

Dang, what do we do? The boys have a new form of defense now. Danielle, never fear I have a weapon of my own! What?!

 A Super cootie: a smooch from a landed right on the cheek! It's like a freeze ray, you'll be locked in stone. He-he that's so crazy it might just work. Go for it Kaysi! Target locked.

SMOOCH straight shot on the cheek.

Wha ha ha... Oh man, "Men I am going down, he shouted as he fell to the ground and was wiping his face. Now I got to go burn my face!"

Laughing out loud, B.J. you don't have to be so dramatic.

Looks like we just won the base! I guess this is a win for us Tiff said, jokingly. Clayton's "Jaw dropped", that's a Good counter, I could have never predicted that. So whose ideas was this?

That was Kaysi's idea.

Then I think, maybe she should let her take over leadership from here on.

I agree with you Clayton. No, the heck I am not! Why not!? Wait, what I can't; that's your job,

Tiff! Let's see you lead us to many victories and we have you as our secret weapon. I am still not doing it. Dang.

About that "Secret weapon," I am okay with it. But, the new is rule you can only use that twice per game! What, fine you can only give yourself the shot once a game.

Okay, when 1 more rule also you're frozen until someone gets you out. That's Fair," Now let's go!"

Just to let you know I think you are pretty and have long hair like that one anime girl, Tiff exclamied. I still think you could lead. Oh you mean meatball head lol. Yep, that's one.

Thanks but no hah-aha…Did she "really" need to say that I thought.

RING....Well, we will pick this up tomorrow. But not everything plays out the same way you're used to.

RING… Kaysi….Kaysi are you good? Snap out of it?

Yeah, Beck, I am okay.

My first year of middle wasn't too horrible is the least, I can't say. I met my friend Becky. She was my first friend in this new school.

I lost touch with my other friends, after a big move in the summer. Our family had to move cause they were turning the homes in the area into more dorms for the college.

At first, going into middle school I thought it would be fun. I couldn't have been more wrong.

My new friends tried to help me. Becky was my first friend she was clumsy and Energetic. She had pretty long curly red hair. She had glasses that she used off and on. Her favorite color was light blue like ice. She was very musical with her violin.

She took care of that thing like it was a baby. Her mom invested her money into it they were pretty rich.

My next friend was Micah. She knew Beck, back in elementary. She was bubbly but at the same time, she could be quiet and focused. She was very talented and super smart.

She won the spelling bee and liked to read mysteries

She had medium straight caramel-colored brown hair. She also loved magical colors like the orange in a sunset.

Middle school was hard because, I was a bit of a nerd, I had glasses at the time, and got bullied a lot. I had long dark chocolate-brown hair that was always messy. 

Until my mom thought it be smart to cut my hair to my shoulders. It darkened later in the years.

Being raised on the poor side of town some of the kids had it harder than others. I also didn't have the best upbringing and got into some trouble myself. Through occasional bad choices.

Picking fights with bullies when I would stand up for others was one of them. I should of kept to myself but I couldn't help it.

The first year I tried to make friends with everyone. But it's not like elementary school. Sometimes that is a bad idea a girl bloodied my nose just for talking to her boyfriend. I didn't know who he was. I didn't even know who she was at first.

It seemed the bullying was due to some of my unique abilities. Me being different I think drew some unwanted attention to me. 

I could see and hear demons. Some of the kids were being controlled by them.

I could see the demons attached to them. At the time I didn't know what I could do so I tried to help them.

I wasn't alone Becky could hear them but although she couldn't see. Yet she kept that to herself in fear of ending up like me. I couldn't blame her.

Just as things couldn't have gotten worse there were demons everywhere. Their numbers began to increase. No one had a clue. I could barely get my schoolwork done.

When Physical Education came, we heard a girl scream from in the gymnasium locker room downstairs. The demon started doing things like moving items. Some of the girls came running up the stairs and said the locker doors slammed shut by themselves. This was somewhat normal from time to time.

They just brushed it off as the occasional normal ghostly haunting. But they were too scared to return to finish getting dressed.

The Gym teacher had to step in and go looking downstairs. He had claimed it was nothing more than a mouse. But we all knew what we had seen and heard.

At first, I could hear spirits but only in dreams when they would come to me. One night in a dream a monster came rising from my bed sheets.

I woke up crying and then told myself, that not all was as it seemed there had to be more.

I encouraged myself to be strong and brave and just go back to sleep. Ripping the blankets from the bed in my dream I discovered a tape recorder saying check the basement playing over and over.

I believe it was a spirit trying to contact me. I went down to the basement and found an old pocket watch. Was this what he was trying to tell me? Was he stuck in limbo contacting me in the only way he could?

I took the watch and said a little prayer. I buried it placing the watch in the ground. After that, I must have done something right, no more sounds or dreams were haunting me.

I woke up the next day. And I told Becky all that went down the day before with my dreams and what I had done when I woke.

Wow, that is incredible you must be getting stronger in your abilities and maybe gain a new power.

I started being more of a target for evil and confused spirits. Some wanted help some just wanted to be seen. I didn't know what I could do for some of them. I tried to help but it was overwhelming and exhausting also I had to study my grades were slipping.

I decided to ignore them for now. Then one day a boy pushed me into the lockers knocking my books out of my hand. Thump... They hit the floor. I could see he was being controlled by something but I couldn't make it out I had not fully awakened my powers to the spirit realm and some things I still did not know of.

My eyes were wide and I was afraid of what was coming next as he stood there pinning me and growling with his eyes blazing red.
