Alexandra sat on the edge of the roof of her highschool. The wind blew through her hair, rustling her raven locks, some strands splaying across her face. Her thin legs dangled in the air as she stared off into the sky, it seemed to be a gloomy day. The clouds were thick and dark and the light of the sun, only came out in small rays that peaked through the cracks of the clouds. As she sat there, suddenly she heard the door to the roof slam open and the clapping of feet against the surface of the roof. Her head turned quickly to the sound. No one ever came up here. Which is why she stayed up here so much.<br/><br/>There stood one of the other students, running out towards her. She looked panicked and frightened as she stopped for a breath. Her name was Allyson. Then, right behind her, the three bullies of the school burst through the same door. They all wore the same aggressive look. The bullies were all yelling at Allyson, but she couldn't quite understand what they were going on about. Something to do with humiliating them and that she would pay. This was enough to get her to her feet.<br/><br/>Just as the tallest one began to thrust her fist towards Allyson's face, Alexandra lurched her body forward and shoved her out of the way, her face taking the blow instead. Stumbling back, her hand cradled her jaw as a sharp pain shot through it. She looked to Allyson who lay on the ground, where she had pushed her out of the way.<br/><br/><span style="color: #8000FF">"Don't you dare touch her!"</span>She said harshly.<span style="color: #8000FF"> "I'm the only one you can hurt. Leave her alone."</span>She said, she felt that she was the only person who deserved to feel pain at all. She didn't want to see anyone else hurt. Alexandra wished, she had some type of training to defend herself as the bullies began to pound at her with their fists. She dropped to her knees, but never let one whimper or cry escape her lips as they kicked her ribs and face. She could feel her bones bruising and cracking underneath her skin as blood flowed freely from her nose and oozed from several cuts.<br/><br/>She stood up, trying to defend herself. She got to her feet and began backing away. She was then trapped. Her heels met the edge of the roof and she had no where to go. The bully punched her once more in the face, and she tumbled backwards. The air hissed in her ears as she flew towards the ground. Her arms and legs flailed around her and she struggled to breath. She knew she was going to die. Her body hit the ground in a crunch and she felt an agonizing pain through her stomach, her eyes looked to her stomach and saw that she had been impaled by a thorned branch. Her body, went cold and she couldn't move as the world around her went black.<br/><br/>Alexandra gasped and gulped in air as she woke up in an unfamiliar room. Her body ached and she felt as though she could topple over any minute. Her eyes traveled around the room, inspecting every detail. Once she was sure she could stand, she did just that. She began exploring and found that no one could see or hear her.<span style="font-style: italic">'What is going on?' </span>She thought as she tried to touch someone's shoulder, but went right through. Just then a bright light, shone in front of her. There stood a beautiful young girl in all white. She knew it to be an angel of some sort.<span style="color: #00FFFF">"Hello, Alexandra."</span>She spoke in a soft, yet confident voice.<span style="color: #8000FF">"Where am I?"</span>She asked quietly.<span style="color: #00FFFF">"You are dead, love. But don't worry. You have a second chance. If you choose to fight. To protect the living from the monsters of this realm, you will be returned to life, but if you fail, you will return to your eternal fate in hell."</span>The girl said and Alexandra nodded.<span style="color: #8000FF">"Alright."</span>Alexandra simply said.<span style="color: #00FFFF">"You will not be alone in this, you will have allies to help you. Go to them."</span>She said, gesturing to a pair of girls.
