Reaching heaven

{^picture of Isabella above}

"He will be fully healed soon." Tina said in a hushed whisper. "The demon got him pretty good, but luckily hit nothing fatal. He'll be up and walking in no time, Zoe."
Isabella pushed the door of the female dorm open and flounced inside. Tina who had been stood facing Zoe who was sat on the bed, spun around, blood draining from her face.
"Bella," she said quickly, her eyes darting everywhere around the room. "What's up?"
Isabella rolled her eyes. "Don't play that card, Tina. I could hear you from behind the door. Now talk."
Zoe stood up beside her sister. Isabella had always thought Zoe was the fiercer of the two, less easy to control and contain. She'd once admired her for this, seeing some of that in herself. Now however, Isabella wanted to be the one in charge.
"We don't have to tell you anything."
Zoe said, crossing her arms over her chest.
Isabella placed a hand on her hip. "Actually, you do. I may only be guessing here, but I'm pretty sure that whatever you don't want me to know, you defiantly don't want David knowing. As one of his most trusted advisers, I could go and tell him I have suspicions of the two of you. Now who do you think he would believe?"
Zoe's mouth was hanging open and her hands clenched into fists at her side. Her eye twitched with anger, but overall she looked speechless and overpowered.
Isabella smiled. "So, what will it be?"
Tina placed a hand on her sisters shoulder, however it did nothing to relax Zoe who was shooting daggers at Isabella.
"I'll tell you if you tell me who stuck a fork up your ass." Zoe retorted. Tina heaved a sigh, dropping her had to her side.
Isabella's mouth dropped open and was ready to attack when there was a knock on the door.
All three girls turned towards it in surprise. Isabella's blood ran thick and hot from what Zoe had said. She knew nothing about her, and had absolutely no right to say such things to her. If she only knew-
"I'll get it then, shall I?" Tina said, looking the most annoyed Isabella had ever seen the kind other half of Zoe.
Tina opened the door, revealing a very manic looking Craig.
"Craig?" Zoe said, coming up behind her sister and crossing her arms over her chest. "What are you doing knocking on the female dorm door?"
Craig studied each of their faces once. From Tina's worried expression, to Zoe's curious, to Isabella's annoyed. Finally he spoke. "You're all needed downstairs in the main hall immediately. Boss's orders."
The twins begin to move, no questions asked, until Isabella puts a hand on Tina's arm, stopping them. She looked at Craig whose eyes were wide with...anxiety?
"What is this about?" She said in a voice she hoped was commanding and powerful.
It was. "I'm not entirely sure," Craig said hesitantly. "but it's rumoured that Nathaniel is back."
Isabella gasped along with the twins who were now pale of face. Tina brought her hands to her heart. "But that's-" she began.
Isabella cut her off. "The creator of the afterworlds."
