Running.

     Jess Pov.

     I stare at the heap on the ground, unbelieving. Would they really invade my privacy like this?! I feel a pang of hurt. I realize where that pain has centered. On my left shoulder. On my scar. The battle with Death left me with it, and it seems to feed on negative emotion. I unconsciously move my hand over it, and feel the small dip in my shoulder. My anger boils inside me, threatening to burst. I ignore it, and step over them. "Sly, I'm not doing this. Could you get Kala, or someone else to help?" He sees the murderous look on my face.

"O-Okay." I walk out of the classroom, without looking back.

"Thanks, Sly."  

    Timeskip

    I get a few weird glances when I enter the classroom, but Ms. Hyria continues with her lesson. I take my seat, and hear whispers behind me. "It's that freak again. No one even knows her name. How do you even get into school without telling anyone your name? I mean, writing your name down, in her case." I ignore him, and take notes on the subject. History of Irene. I know this already. I know everything every class has to offer. It sucks to have to keep going through high school. 

    "I know right?" A girl behind me giggles. "I mean, why does she even wear that stupid mask? I bet she's super ugly. Like, blobfish kind of ugly." 

    "Yeah! She must be!" Jesus, they're not even trying to hide their whispers. Another voice next to me answers. Ivy.

    "Do you want me to test that theory?" What does she mean? Suddenly, I feel my bandanna slip! I try to pull it back up, but I realize it's gone! She pulled it off?! Everyone stares at me, and I know they've figured it out! "L-Lady Th-Thor?!" Ivy stutters. I've been caught! I do the only thing I can do. Run. I don't know for how long I ran, minutes? Hours? Days? All I know, is that when I fall asleep, I still feel like I'm running. Like I'm running from my nightmares.
