❦Chapter 4❦
It was finally lunch, and lucky for Maya, she had lunch with Riley. The two girls walked down to the lunchroom chatting with Farkle as well. They'd all brought their own lunches because the school lunches were rumored to be disgusting.
"I'll be right back" Riley said quickly. The brunette rushed out of the lunchroom and into the bathroom. She had a bully...
Missy Bradford.
Missy had always despised Riley because everyone seemed to love her. Missy had always wanted that for herself. Every day Missy made Riley come to the bathroom so che could insult her and tell her that she was worthless. Riley knew if she didn't go Missy would physically hurt her, and the brunette only made that mistake once.
"M-Missy?" Riley called out, as she was stepping into the bathroom. A few people knew what Missy had done this to the brunette, but they were too afraid to do anything about it. Missy came from around the corner and smirked.
"Your late." Missy stated. Fear shone in Riley's eyes as she took a step back.
"Please don't" The girl pleaded. Missy slapped the brunette across the face as hard as she could, leaving a mark on the other girl's face. Riley held her cheek in attempt to stop the stinging pain.
"How come Riley isn't back? It's been 15 minutes... I'm gonna go check on her" Maya said to Farkle as she got up. The blonde walked down the hall towards the bathroom and pulled out a divice that looked like a smartphone. It was a demon tracker, to track nearby demons if there were any. Maya looked down at it as she got towards the bathroom, the demonatic activity levels rising. The blonde kept quiet as listened to by the door.
"Get over here, somebody's coming. Get in a stall!" Missy hissed. Literally hissed.
"What the hell are you?" Riley questioned as she tried to move away. Riley was afraid, of course, but she was standing her ground. The brunette wanted answers.
"It won't matter much unless you get in a stall so I won't kill you" Missy said, looking oddly pale and her voice dropping several octives.
"Don't touch me- Thing" Riley spat, attempting to open the door blindly. Maya could tell. Whatever was in there with Riley was a demon. Maya reached in her left black combat boot and pulled out a blade.
"Nakir" She said quietly. The blade sprung to life, glowing. Maya smiled to herself. Her mother Clary had given it to her, it had been given to her mother by her father. Maya barged into the bathroom to see Riley backed against a wall, and a demon like creature looming over the brunette.
Riley saw Maya and hope was now most likely visible to anyone who looked at her.
"Maya!" Riley cried as the demon grasped the brunette with a clawed hand, holding her in place.
"Shadowhunter" It hissed at Maya. The blonde launched herself at the beast, seraph blade in hand. She stabbed it in the leg, stumbling to the ground. The demon screached and let go of Riley, sending a clawed hand at Maya.
"Is that all you've got? That's really pathetic" Maya chuckled, standing while throwing the blade then catching it. The demon swung its massive hand again, knocking the blade from Maya's reach when the girl threw it. Maya's jaw dropped and the demon tackled her.
"Careless I suppose?" It teased while keeping Maya to the ground. Riley on the other hand, was confused and terrified. She darted across the room for the glowing blade. The brunette ran towards the beast, plunging the blade into its neck. The demon screached in pain, then disappeared, only leaveing ash behind. The brunette stood, still in shock of what'd she'd just done.
"Y-you-" Maya was stuttering uncontrollably. But shes a mundie... The seraph blade only works for ones with blood of the angel...
"I what?" Riley asked. Maya shook her head as she stood up. She then grabbed the taller girl's wrist.
"I'll explain soon, but right now you're in danger"
