Chapter 1

Matilda's POV "Wake up Matilda!" Mom yelled from downstairs. She have always been my alarm and I really don't like it. She wakes me up before my own alarm wakes me up. "I'm up," I mumbled and turned to the other side to get one more minute of sleep. Wrong move. The sun rays were so damn blinding causing me to groan and get out of bed forcefully. I walked to the bathroom and peed before getting in the shower and setting the temperature then waited for the water to heat me up. It was relaxing that you could fall asleep in here. I got out after thirty minutes and brushed my teeth before taking the towel and drying myself up. I walked back to my room and picked my undergarments from the drawers. They weren't matching but who cares. I walked to my closet and picked white shirt with dirty pink tami jeans. I put on my white Nike sneakers and put my hair in a ponytail. I took my empty bag and took my phone from the charger. I walked out of my room and knocked on George's door. I heard a faint come in and I opened the door before walking in. He was in his closet. Didn't know what to wear. "Hey Tilly," he poked his head out and I rolled my eyes. Who calls their sisters Tilly then claims they love them? "Hey Geo," I greeted back and he groaned. "Can you help me look for a shirt?" He asked and I rolled my eyes. "Of course cry baby," I said in a mocking voice but walked into his closet anyway. It was huge. But not bigger than mine just half the size of mine. I picked him the white sleeved button up shirt and gave it to him. "Thank you mommy," he mocked back and put it on. He also took his bag and gave it to me. "I need some stuff," I said and he looked at me with a raised eyebrow. I ran back to his closet and took his gray hood and one button up shirt and put them in my bag. I have always wanted his hood. It's just so comfy. "That's stealing bro," he said and I rolled my eyes. "It's borrowing dude," I said and closed my bag before walking to the door. "You are never gonna bring them back," he stated and I threw his bag at him. He caught it with one hand. "Correct," I said walking downstairs. "Why do you need them anyway?" he asked following behind me and I rolled my eyes. "I'm wearing a white shirt. We both know what is gonna happen when I'm new at school," I said and he rolled his eyes. The four previous schools we went at, someone would pour water on me and claim it to be a mistake, every single time we moved it was the same thing. We walked downstairs and found mom setting the table. "Morning," George said behind me and mom turned to us. "Morning babies," mom greeted back and walked towards me. She started fixing my shirt even thought it was perfectly fine. "Food," George said and walked to the table. I groaned and mom chuckled before letting me go and walking back to the table to plate food for grandma. I went to the table and started eating. Me and George were the foodies of the house. But we never get fat. I wonder why. We always eat junk food. That's how we keep our day going. "Done!" We yelled in unison and mom entered the kitchen with an empty plate too. I think it's from last night since granny didn't eat with us last night. "Are you guys ready?" Mom asked and we nodded. We walked outside and mom was on the phone and I'm guessing with a client. I ran to the car and climbed shotgun. I saw George roll his eyes and went to the backseat. Mom climbed in and started the car. "I won't be able to pick you kids up after school so you'll have to walk," she said and I sighed. We drove in silence to our new school. Mom stopped the car and I looked outside. Our new school was huge. Probably five floors if not seven, i bet there were kids from twentt different packs here. I got out of the car and waited as mom gave George a necklace to hide his scent and shit. He came out while putting it on and walked with me to the entrance. We went to pick our schedules and started to compare. He got three classes with me. History, English and chemistry. I rolled my eyes as we walked our separate ways. People were giving me odd looks but I chose to ignore them. I walked to my locker and put my combination and threw the shirt and hood in there. I closed it and locked it before looking at my schedule. I have religion for the first hour. My favourite. Room E108. Where could it be. I don't want to get lost on my first day. I started walking around looking for room E108. Okay. I think I'm lost. Great. I'm in floor H. I started going back but got more lost. "Excuse me," I called out to the janitor and he turned to me. "What?" He asked rudely turning to me. He looked to be on his late thirties or something. "Can you please tell me where room E108 is?" I asked and he gasped. "Did you just say please?" He asked and I made a confused face. "Uh... yeah?" I said and he smiled showing his almost yellow teeth. "It's upstairs. Take these stairs then turn left. Pass those lockers and walk like you are heading to the bathroom then turn left walk straight then the red door is your room," he said and I tried repeating it in my head. Once I got it I turned to him with a smile. "Thank you," he gasped again and I walked off. He is weird, I mean who gets shocked only because someone said please and thank you. I walked to the stairs and went up. This is so confusing. Where is George when you need him. I walked a little further and turned left. There were still kids in the halls. I saw a girl standing alone by her locker so I walked towards her since I forgot the directions already. "Hello," I smiled at her and she looked at me before looking back at the floor. "Hi," she whispered that I almost didn't hear her. "Can you please show me room E108?" I asked and she nodded. We started walking in silence. She was looking at the floor and not looking up at all. Weird right? "This is it," she said lowly and I looked at the door. It really was the red door. "Thank you..." I was waiting for her name. She looked around before looking back at me. "Melanie," she said and I nodded. "Thank you Mel," I said and she walked away. I walked inside the class and it was not a class. It looked spiritual. It was dark with candles illuminating it. The bell rang and the teacher walked in. He looked to be in his early fifties. "Settle down class," he said and people started taking their spots. I had nowhere to go so I walked to the back. Only fifteen if not twenty learners were in here. "To those who doesn't know me, I'm Mr. Millers," he said and the class went quiet. I nodded my head and the girl next to me was on her phone. "Can you please turn it off?" I whispered and she looked up at me before rolling her eyes. I really don't like anyone disrespecting the spirits. I feel like they're insulting me too. "Whatever," she turned it off and looked forward. "Today we will be all in meditation forms. Now I want all of you to sit on your meditation positions and get comfortable," he said and I heard a few groans. I rolled my eyes and sat in lotus position then closed my eyes. "Find your inner peace and focus on just that. You can feel your wolf get comfy and feeling free," so I am in here with wolves, no wonder why they're so rude. I could feel the stares of the class but ignored them as I closed my eyes. I opened my eyes and I was not fifteen anymore. I was twenty five instead. I was in the olden years and definitely not on Earth. People were fighting everywhere. "Look over there. It's an Earthbender!" Someone yelled and I looked to the direction. "Let's get her!" another voice yelled and people started running towards me. I brought my hands together and started mumbling things Greek. I don't talk Greek. When I opened my eyes they were lighting blue in colour. I raised my hands and brought them to my attackers and they fell down. It started raining and I started controlling the thunder to hit the opposite people. I could feel myself get wet in reality but couldn't get up. "Don't kill her. She is the last Earthbender and if you kill her she will be reborn again," one of them said and I went to turn to the man but I was stabbed and blood started spilling out of my mouth. I fell to the ground and my body started turning into dust. "We have to find the reborn one and kill her," that's what I heard before my body disappeared into the dust. The bell rang but I couldn't get back. All I could see was black and my family's faces passed. I first saw grandpa in his human form and the ghost form. I saw how he met with grandma. I saw grandma and him getting married and give birth to mom and her sister. Her sister died in the accident and mom was in a coma. They couldnt find mom's sister's body. Mom tried to kill herself but grandma stopped her. "Tilly open your eyes," I heard George say. I wanted to but I couldn't. It was like my eyes were glued together. What's going on? Why can't I open my eyes??
