Chapter 13 - 13

Scarlett

I reached school 30 minutes earlier. I didn't enter the halls. I started walking straight to the back of the school. I stopped when I finally reached the corner of teachers' lounge. "Can you make me walk through the wall?" I asked. He didn't reply. He closed the space between us and held my waist. Slowly, he backed me up against the wall of the lounge. He placed his hand against the wall and we both fell through it.

"Wow." I said trying to get my bearings straight. "So what's your plan here?" Starwick asked looking unimpressed. I pulled the Ziploc out of my bag and walked to the coffee machine. "To dispose fish guts,... as I was instructed to." I smirked. I mixed the fish guts with the coffee beans and brewed some hot coffee for the teachers. "Since I can't bring them an apple,... I'll make them coffee." A diamond turned black as I walked out of the teachers' lounge.

Dolores poured for herself a full cup of coffee. She sipped hers a couple of times, then asked, "Am I the only one who thinks this coffee tastes weird?" Her eyes scanned all the faces of the teachers who were drinking the coffee with her. Only Jayden Sanchez, the chemistry teacher wasn't having coffee, she was caffeine intolerant. "I taste okay to me." Matthias Voltman, the German teacher said, filling his mug for the second time.

"I had to stop drinking mine. It tasted and smelt fishy to me." Albert Cekret, the physics teacher said. "Who brewed this coffee?" Dolores asked opening the coffee bean compartment. She let out a shrill scream. Looking Dolores Hart right in the face was the most disgusting thing she had ever seen. "Are these fish guts?!" she yelled. Ria Silva, the biology teacher walked over to check.

"I'm afraid they are." she said before all the teachers went into a panic phase. The whole school heard the screams from the teachers' lounge. Scarlett wore a light smirk. "What you smiling at, prey." Brianna called out across the hall, having been observing her for awhile. "Nothing." came the sharp response. Five minutes later, the principal's voice was heard over the speakers, "Scarlett Livana Muldoon report to my office immediately."

I sat down before the desk of the school principal, Victoria Taylor. Her brown eyes were glued on me. I looked up at her after watching the video she had asked me to watch on her tablet. It was a security footage of me walking out of the teachers' lounge this morning. I handed her the tablet back.

"What were you doing there this morning, and most importantly, HOW did you get in there 'cause there's no footage of you entering the hallways this morning." she asked me. I stared blankly at her. "I wasn't me." I said after a long five minutes.

She smiled, "I really do hope it wasn't you. You know what you have to loose,... and I don't want to be the one that causes you to loose it." She paused a while then continued, "Even after what you did to me,... I don't want to get you into trouble,... so respect yourself." I gritted my teeth together.

I know exactly what I did to her, but I refuse to regret it. It was an accident. "Look,..." I started. "...do your worst. I. Don't. Give. A. F***!" With that, I stormed out of the office slamming the door rudely behind me.
