I was waiting for class to start all day long, but I never thought that our teacher would

call a student out

of the classroom to participate in an experiment. I looked around and there was nobody else in the
classroom. I wondered why she did that. I thought maybe she was up to something more.

I then heard a gush of wind, a rustle of leaves, and a snap of twigs. I knew it was the younger of the
monkeys coming to my table in the classroom. I knew for a fact that the younger monkey was guilty of
eating the morsel of apple left by the older monkey. He was there to help himself. But then all thoughts
of the young greedy monkey disappeared as I saw something else… a creature that also looked like a
monkey. I was confused as to what this was. I was seeing things. I squinted my eyes to make sure that I
wasn't seeing things. I looked again. It was not a monkey. It was a demon from the lower plane. The
demon looked over at the younger monkey and said something to him.

"Monkey," said the demon.

The younger monkey then spoke in a timid tone. "Yes?"

"Gladius, you can come with me."

"Come with you?" the younger monkey asked. I was in shock. I wanted to scream but I couldn’t. I did not
want to be expelled so I needed to listen closely to what was happening and mark all of the information
down for my codex.

"You're coming with me," the demon said.

"Come with you to where?" the younger monkey asked.

"You'll find out soon," the demon said as they got up and walked out of the classroom.

I was too panicked by what just happened and could not process anything. I looked around the room and
realized that nobody else had witnessed what just happened. I was the only one that had. I was the only
one that believed that the demon was a monkey. I wondered why. This must be my imagination. I had
seen things that were not there before. It must be some sort of hallucinations. I looked down at the
table that I was sitting at and noticed a scissor that my teacher had left behind. When I looked closer to
the scissor, I realized that the scissor had a stripe of paint on it. I quickly grabbed the scissor and ran to
the next table.

I walked behind the table, hoping nobody would notice what I was doing. In the corner of the room was
a foam board surrounded by glitter on school glue. I looked at the foam board and touched it. Alarmed, I
realized that the paint on the board was the same paint on the scissor. The paint was on the scissor that
the younger monkey used to cut the apple. I ran out of the classroom and I ran as fast as I could. I ran
out into the playground where I saw the older monkey stick his hand of the older monkey's apple that
was inside the cage. The younger monkey then got up and ran away with the apple. At first it was just my
finger of the younger monkey but then it grew to a huge hand. I looked closer to the playground and
there was a man covered in stripes of paint. The paint looked like the same paint that was on the scissor
that I had. The colors were almost the same. It was the paint on the scissor that I saw in the classroom.

There was a crowd of people still watching and the crowd was cheering. That is when I realized that
there was more people with stripes of paint. In the distance I saw what looked like the gates of the
school. I kept getting closer to them and was getting closer and closer to the gates of the school.
Wherever I was it looked like it was near the school. I looked at the stripes of paint. Then I realized it. It
must be a spell that the school was casting on us. I tried to run to the gates, but then I realized that I
could not run at all. I tried to pull myself up and walk. I fell to pieces. I looked back at the gates and saw
that I had gotten far closer to them. I was in front of the gates and they opened at that moment. I then
realized that the demon must have come back for the younger monkey. I was running at that moment,
but not fast enough. I was getting closer to the gates of the school and the demon would have gotten me
in a few moments. I looked back and saw the demon dig up a hole under a sign and actually pull a cage
out. It got heavier and heavier. It was very visible that something was in the cage. I just ran out of there. I
ran away from the school, looking back at every little thing. Nobody was looking for me. Nobody saw
what really happened. I ran around the block until I finally found a place to stop. I realized that I was lost.
I only saw stripes of paint in the distance. I saw a place that had a large amount of stripes of paint. As I
got closer to the place, I realized that it was a person. I was confused. I ran over to the person. I was
running. I then finally stopped as I realized that it was someone that looked exactly like me. His and her
clothes looked exactly like mine. It was another me. Her hair was longer and her face was a little bit
more thin. As I looked at the other me, I saw three monkeys. There was a demon with a younger
monkey, the demon that was in the classroom and the other demon that was also there. I kept walking
backwards not wishing to watch what was happening. They were not saying anything. After the younger
monkey had went in the cage, he turned to me, as did the other two monkeys.

It must be time to look into the future.
