Chapter 4 your worst nightmare
*6 years later*
Damien walked into his school slowly carrying his backpack on his back. They are a lot of students running helter-skelter on the school field.
He walked into the school compound, sat down on the bench bitterly, then a ring was heard around the school compound.
The students ran into the various classes. Damien stood up and also began to move into his classroom block walking slowly like he never cared.
.
Damien opened the door of his classroom, then walked into the classroom to meet his class teacher.
"Damien, you are late,"
"I am sorry ma'am," he said softly, then the woman sighed.
The teacher only knows him as a good boy, but his lateness bothers her.
"Go take your seat,"
He walked to his seat, then looked back only to see those miscreants staring at him with a wicked smirk on their faces.
Damien looked away, then lowered his head.
Ever since that tragedy happened to him six years ago, he had been admitted to another school, well a nightmarish school. Those boys behind him are very bad, very very bad. They love to bully him and tease him like they never cared. They knew he is from a rich family, but these people are his sister, Riley's group. Even his sister bullies him so badly.
*after class*
Damien was rearranging his pencils into his bag when he suddenly heard a big bang from beside, making his books and pencil fall on the floor.
He looked up to see those bad boys smirking at him in a bad way that he trembled, immediately, he lowered his head.
That's how he has been all his life, running away from trouble, but trouble would never avoid him. Especially from this boys, these bad boys.
His sister is always taking advantage of him by using this junior boy to punish him. He only knows that after she graduates from high school, then would then leave him, but for now, non of them are even planning to.
They all walked over to his books stepping at them. The third one picked up His textbooks, tore them in the middle, and flung it aside. The last one also picked up his pencil and broke it. After then, they walked away smirking after him. He swallowed his saliva in nervousness, at least non of them harmed him.
He bent down to pick all of it, without anyone helping him. He couldn't blame any of them, they were all afraid of his sister. The last person who helped him in all of this ended up getting expelled in a bad way.
They all feared his sister especially because she was a Henderson. They all feared the Henderson's, all except him. No one feared him, thanks to his sister who made him inferior to other's eyes.

After school,
Damien was walking out of the school slowly, holding the arms of his bags like a normal school boy.
"Hey handsome," he heard the voice of one of the miscreants. He turned around to see them smirking at him as usual.
He had decided to take a shortcut out of the school today, just meet the chauffeur on time, but what is this?? These people are attacking him again. They are no students around that could report to their teachers. These places looked very silent
If he should have known earlier, he should have passed the normal route to the chauffeur. Now they are attacking him again.
Suddenly, they all surrounded him holding sharp blades. Are they trying to kill him? He panicked. Did Riley send them to do this??? Was Riley planning to get rid of him?!
One of them took his bag, then flung it aside.
"Please, I just want to go home," he begged almost in tears.
He just wanna go home, go to his mom and show the surprise he made for her.
'What does Riley wants? Why is she even doing all these? She is so bad.' His voice rang in his head.
"Ohhh, cry baby,"
"Please, let me go," He begged again.
"Unfortunately, we aren't planning to,"
He looked at their faces in horror.
He felt a sharp sting on his left arm. He winced, then made a groan. It was so painful. He saw his arm bleeding thoroughly
He saw another boy attacking him stabbing his leg.
This time, he screamed, then fell to the floor in pain. It was definitely his sister who send them to do all these.
He could remember what happened the other day that made her angry. But he already told her sorry. Why is she punishing him so brutally??
"We aren't done here handsome," one of them said looking at him.
"Please, it's so painful," he begged to hold his bleeding leg.
"Is it?" One of them mocked and they all laughed at him.
One of the boys stabbed his other arm and again, he screamed in pain. He is just eleven years old, he is just a kid.
***
One of them took his bag and began going through it, throwing away the books in it. He took the picture of his mother and him that he drew yesterday, then threw his bag away.
Riley???
"Oh, that is it?" One of them said pointing at the picture.
"This.. " the one who seem to be the leader yanked it from the other hand, then brought out his lighter.
"Please I beg of you, don't! I beg of you, please don't. That was meant to be my surprise to my mom, I beg of you, don't burn it," he said begging with tears in his eyes.
He brought it closer to his face, then lit the lighter.
"Don't..."
He lit or from the tip of the picture, then it began to burn.
"No!!"
He pushed away the boy while struggling to stand on his feet.
He picked up the burning picture not caring if it might hurt him or not.
"You people won't know how much I struggled to get this picture done. I was only planning to gift it to my mom," he said gritting his teeth. Not because the picture was burning his hands. It was for the pain these people made him go through, especially for the burnt picture.
"And you are all going to pay," he lowered the burning picture to look at their faces in anger.
They all watched how the picture was burning, burning his hand with it. He then dropped the burnt picture, leaving it on the floor burning. A strong and deadly aura surrounded him making all of them flinch in fear and horror.
His iris turned red, terrifying the people staring at him.
His short canine elongated turning sharp. His fingers turned longer.
They all moved back, ready to run.
"Where do you all think you are going to, you are all going to hell today," he grits his teeth.
"He is a monster, he is a monster!! Run!"
Before they could even move, they all felt a huge grip on them, throwing them towards the wall, they all hit their heads on the wall, and immediately, three of the boys fell unconscious.
Damien walked to the conscious one among them, what surprised him the most was that he wasn't even leaping, all the wounds they gave to him seemed to have healed completely, only blood stains. What the heck is he??! The boy trembled in fear. Was Riley planning to kill them, she never informed them that the person they were told to wound was a monster.
Damien squatted and took the knife on the floor, ready to stab him in the face.
He remembered he was the one who burned his picture, this wicked kid, now he is going to give the worst scar he would never forget in his life.
"Who the...who the heck are you?" The boy trembled.
"Your worst nightmare," he snorted walking straight to the boy who was trembling badly.
Immediately he took a turn stabbing the boy, and a very loud voice was heard.
"Stop!!"
That was then everything dawned on him. He was changing back to his normal state. His eyes were changing to normal, his fangs were getting shorter, and even his long fingers got to their normal size. He changed back to his normal state.
There were three teachers and the principal behind him.
He stood up to look at the people who stared at him in horror. They were shocked to see him like that.
"Are you trying to kill your peers?" The principal widened his eyes.
They could see his body stained with blood. He quickly dropped the knife, then began to shake his head. Tears were dropping from his eyes, now that he finally realized what he did.
"These people were trying to kill me first, I was only..."
"Silence!!" One of the teachers yelled at him. He just shook his head allowing tears to stream down his cheeks.
"I am sorry," he apologized.
