My fourth hour and fifth hour flew over like nothing however after my sixth hour I opened my locker to find a different note in my locker. It's creamy envelope and wrinkles were not like the dark, creepy note from earlier.

This time I made sure that I stuffed this note in my pocket, this time I was going to read this note without any questions.
566Please respect copyright.PENANArIUKmrsD6C
I grabbed my backpack and rushed out the doors of the school with everyone else.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAXeRM2QaYpP
Before I was going to walk home, I sat at a table outside of the school since Roy wanted to meet up with me today anyways. The note or actually rather letter was warm from my pocket as I picked open the lip.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAB0xqfuxm4H
"Bean?" Lexi's voice questioned from behind me.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAhWvVV9vlbO
Right when I was going to open it!
566Please respect copyright.PENANAcztMa3svXR
"What?" I said quickly stuffing the note into my backpack.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAMmPfTcr0aw
"I thought for sure you'd be long gone by now, your sixth hour teacher is nice and always lets you out early."
566Please respect copyright.PENANAnLf6BVYtrA
"I'm just feeling a little lazy today, sitting before my long walk home..." I said making up something for Roy's stupid meeting.
566Please respect copyright.PENANA0f24nhCSry
She grinned at me."Roy and I can drive you, if you wouldn't mind."
566Please respect copyright.PENANA1BuihpU9fV
Nooo..
566Please respect copyright.PENANAyKPEU1VOpy
"Sure." I smiled. What the hell Roy, you said you wanted to talk and now you ditch me! Dick.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAeHDjY3qzCm
I swear something is out to get me, today couldn't get anymore weirder. A family moved into the abandoned house next door and Roy started actually paying attention to my existence well... at least I thought.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAv5ByMv1xvl
Lexi grabbed my hand and lead me over to a black Impala, Roy looked at Lexi with annoyance until his eyes hit mine with surprise.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAXwapXy79ef
"Roy, hope you won't mind dropping my friend off." She grinned, giving him the 'you have no choice look'.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAJIyBtw21Xy
He nodded and finally glanced away from me.
566Please respect copyright.PENANA3Vk3JeCu1F
I opened the back seat door and slipped in while Lexi sat passenger.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAKMYAoGm0Rx
No way was I going to sit front even if I had the choice, that would be too awkward. Plus I probably would of glared at him for ditching me.
566Please respect copyright.PENANA4vtH0nylga
Roy drove off and sometimes glanced at me through the rear view mirror.
566Please respect copyright.PENANA3r3LEAgn9W
Roy's dirty blond hair was shaggy over his smokey grey eyes, those eyes made almost any girl fall in love with him but, me. Well actually I did have a crush on Roy before that shameful night.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAOz0UCwAIFi
"So Bean, what's the new kid like?" Lexi asked braking the awkward silence.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAk1d8RrACH4
I cleared my throat. "Haven't met him yet...."
566Please respect copyright.PENANAp1hcKxA5cw
"Even though he gave you a note?" She asked eagerly.
566Please respect copyright.PENANA8mx2plJSaN
Roy looked interested in this conversation, he looked at me the same way Lexi did.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAhDeKeN2InT
"No, the note disappeared when I went to read it after second hour." I glumly told them.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAoSYj71p7dP
Lexi grinned but, turned back in her seat.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAdiKvcfy4NF
Once the car stopped I jumped out as soon as I could.
566Please respect copyright.PENANADXqCHtpH9N
Lexi smiled and waved at me as Roy drove away. She opened her window and yelled, "Read the note in your backpack!"
566Please respect copyright.PENANA6VKjmsGWum
I stood froze, how did she know? I made sure she didn't see it.....
566Please respect copyright.PENANAHILGVgu2ZF
Before I could read it I had to go through my mother to my bedroom, the usual school questions except one, "did you meet the new neighbors? I'm for sure the boy's your age."
566Please respect copyright.PENANAFSasnFKNO1
I just shook my head and shut my bedroom door. New kids always are the center of attention when they come to a new school but, how come I've heard nothing about him except that he wanted my locker combination. To be honest he wasn't ugly, he's black hair was for sure unforgettable.
566Please respect copyright.PENANA9up2ab2yCe
I dug through my bag to find the letter. This time I could actually read it without interruptions.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAobIpS055n3
The envelope ripped open easily, what it said surprised me:
566Please respect copyright.PENANAazmMrSOLfx
Dear, Bean Garrett.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAIpGrNcvcjt
We were noted that our son has moved in next to you, just to reassure you Prince Travis isn't there to harm you just simply return you.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAfBs9qzILMm
Hope to see you soon, King Charleston's.
566Please respect copyright.PENANA489P6CjceJ
I wanted to almost bust out laughing however in me I kinda believed the note, I mean the writing was cursive and the signature wasn't something you could fake.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAFRv82b4eFk
The letter was too freakish to throw away so I stuffed it in my dresser with my underwear, a place no one would look.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAtiIG7V4BFb
Who is Travis? Is he the new kid? Then he is trying to play a joke which isn't funny.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAtimwcBNk3E
I shook it off and walked off down the hall to the kitchen.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAXtUsDTzb03
My mother wasn't in the kitchen which meant she was probably off to work, lucky her she had work late.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAxhnaDsfg8b
I whipped up a sandwich and a bowel of chicken soup. My stomach growled for the taste of the soup as I dug in. All of a sudden my mother busted into the kitchen with my note in between her finger tips. Had she really dug through my underwear drawer....
566Please respect copyright.PENANAVeKalIYF3U
"Why the hell didn't you tell me!" She yelled. "It had their scent all over it, you should be happy I found the letter."
566Please respect copyright.PENANAAiaHCyxVym
I stared wide eyed at the wrinkled, creamy envelope. The one that said some guy named Travis was here to return me.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAm2ZpBP1a0R
My mother awaited my answer as I shoved my soup aside.... For now.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAoyNuRB4wWA
"Mother, I didn't think of it as a big deal. It is just a prank someone did to me at school."
566Please respect copyright.PENANAmyFPw19Kx3
She shook her head. "Bean I'm sorry about this but, this letter isn't a prank. Someone is really here to return you to....." She paused.
566Please respect copyright.PENANA3eMJbjqI7e
"Mom! Return me to where?! How do you know that's not a joke!" I hollered, pointing to the letter.
566Please respect copyright.PENANA9IAFP8ZpY2
To be honest she was scaring me, the way she talked. Who scent had she smelled and how? Where is this 'person' supposed to return me too?
566Please respect copyright.PENANAtmTLk5C6vu
"Honey, you need to be clam. I'm sorry for coming into the kitchen and yelling at you." She told me sweetly. "This is going to sound crazy however you just need to know, I knew this time would come eventually."
566Please respect copyright.PENANAVdEX3EGi3P
"Tell me what?" I shifted in my stool awkwardly while my mother sat down next to me.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAb71YAmRu2Z
"I'm not your..... Mother." It was very hard for her to admit it but, she did.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAuOwg3DP4Yt
I wanted to jump away from her and call grandma who lived about a hour away. Grams could straighten her back to her senses. However I didn't, I just sat saying absolutely nothing.
566Please respect copyright.PENANALy1NxNhx07
"Bean, please say something."
566Please respect copyright.PENANARQFnUecT9M
I just shook my head. Unbelievable, she obviously is on drugs or is drunk.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAeZktz6aITC
"Your, drunk mother. Go lay down before you go to work which you probably just skipped anyways." I said surprisingly calm. "I'll call them and tell them you'll be taking a sick day."
566Please respect copyright.PENANAYBwyy7etra
She reached out to touch my shoulder however I dodged her hand. "Bean please understand how hard this is for me right now, you are and will always be my daughter just....not by blood." Tears glistened in her amber eyes.
566Please respect copyright.PENANA5eZ1plYo6w
So I sighed and payed attention to her craziness. "Fine continue." I just knew she would speak more crazy.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAfLpcInvzzz
"At a young age, your real mother died of child brith. Your father acted coldly towards everyone after it....." She stopped, probably preparing for the next weird part. "I took you from him and left a note saying I would raise you in the human world, away from any dangers."
566Please respect copyright.PENANAOv7b03QuoK
I was truly bewildered by everything she was saying. I couldn't decide if I believed her or not.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAS1ATw6CDNa
"Your mother was my sister, however your father didn't like you being away from the castle long soo.... I hid you from him for your protection." She said.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAksRtzf8kK6
I stuck my hand in her face before she could continue. "Stop, just stop. I'm afraid mother that I might have to send you to a nut house. My father isn't the king over a country and my real mother is standing right in front of my face."
566Please respect copyright.PENANAOMJBadItdu
She shook her head and looked eagerly at me. "Your father is dead, Bean. You're the heir but...."
566Please respect copyright.PENANARfOOS29zgn
I held my arms open. "Look around us, there are no kings or queens. I swear this is just a nightmare you had last night."
566Please respect copyright.PENANAgHfPcx67JQ
My denial took her by shock, "Bean, people have taken over your throne! King Charles took your rule over the Demon World!" She yelled.
566Please respect copyright.PENANAzQMfW7jBMu
There's that name from the note......
566Please respect copyright.PENANAYN94hoX8Lh
My eyes drifted off to the window because I knew she was just deranged. Someone or really just a shadow lingered outside in our backyard. It put its thumbs up as if confirming what my mother had said. Then I couldn't take it anymore my vision turned black and everything faded away from my grasp even my mother yelling my name.
