Esther

9.

*A week later*

"Hi you guys she's starting to wake up" Marius alarmed, his friends in a whisper tone. Esther rubbed the sleep out of her eye fixing her blurred vision to see her friends stood before her while she lays in a hospital bed  dumbfounded as to why she's still somehow alive from previous events. "what happened?" The raven haired girl queried., her voice was sore and husky.

The group of students move to one side letting a familiar face waltzed in the hospital room which lets the ill girl speechless and shocked. "Nurse Orwell?" The blonde woman smiled., sympathetic. "Hello Esther" Noah walked in stating, soft but firmly. "How about we give them some space" the students dispatched saying their quick goodbyes before leaving to return back into the university which is above their current location.

"I bet you're wondering how I'm still alive huh?" Gwen queried, taking a seat near Esther's bedside. Esther chuckled. "Yeah that and other stuff too" she sat up in her bed, to keep herself wide awake. "As you know I was murdered" the blonde woman explained. Esther nodded "Yes Mrs Nickels said it was an animal attack" Gwen felt a strange feeling in her stomach when Esther said that remark "but it wasn't just any animal attack" the nurse clarified in a serious tone.

"I was....attacked by a werewolf" she said a lump in throat nearly tightening  her neck band, glazing down at her feet without shedding a tear. "I'm sorry a what?" Esther questioned natively but apologetic. Ingrid entered the room rolling her eyes in disgust after what she just heard the raven haired girl say. "Oh come on Newmen don't act like you've never of a werewolf before!., it's like you haven't read little red ridding hood!" She scoffed.

Ruddy, Dawn and Stormi all stood beside the wicked blonde girl with their arms crossed disproving of her childish behaviour. "Actually Ingrid the bad big wolf isn't a werewolf!" Stormi corrected. "And do you know that!?" Ingrid snapped at the brunette girl. "Because he's apart of the Grimm fairytales and werewolves are apart of ancient folklores" Esther put her hand on her forehead wiping the sudden sweat off it.

"So what's the difference between a fairytale and a folklore?" she inquired, curious. "A fairytale is written by some random person made stuff up just entrain us little kids. And a folklore is told by real accounts by real people." Dawn explained. "And the big bad wolf doesn't exist." Stormi said looking towards Esther's direction with a frown plastered on her face. "But werewolves  do." "What is that suppose to mean!?" The raven haired girl snapped slightly.

She soon felt the same pain throughout her body just like the night of the ball but ten times worst. Gwen worryingly exclaimed her. Noah led Stromi and Dawn out of the basement. as Ruddy and Ingrid stood aside. "What's happening to me!" Esther yelped. "Don't worry Esther it's all part of the.." Ruddy's words were cut off due to Esther eyes growing somber as she found herself fainting full of exhaustion whists the pain faded away once again.
