Chapter 9: The Witch's Scourage

Roy stood and caught Halora. He was nervous and scared, "Wake up! Please, wake up!" He tapped her face gently.

But she remained unconscious. Roy looked sharply at Sandra and quickly held her jaw tightly.

Anger drew on his face as he looked at his cousin's face. She was afraid that Roy might hurt her because of what she did to Halora.

"Because of you..., because of you Sandra! It is all your fault and I will never forgive you!" He shouted at her face as Sandra closed her eyes and felt Roy's saliva splashed to her.

Disgustingly, she tried to push him away but Roy tightened up his grip. "L–let m–me go, Roy! You... you're hurting me!"

"Wh–what are you guys doing?! In–instead of watching why don't you help me out!"

Sandra looked at her friends and asked for help furiously. She was disappointed with them for watching her suffering.

She rolled her eyes when none of them moved to pull Roy away from her. Until the students gathered outside of the classroom and tried to know what's going on.

"Stop him! He's going to kill Sandra!" One of the students screamed.

While Halora was still unconscious and unaware of what happened, Sebastian Woo noticed the students huddled in Halora's room.

He was with the nine members of the gang as he walked towards them. Without a word, the students panicked upon searching the sight of him.

"Give way! The campus bad boy is here!" A student from tenth grade exclaimed which has caught everyone's attention.

Sandra gulped as her pulse stopped pounding for the moment. She was frightened knowing that Seb will be going to protect Halora from her.

"San, we need to go by now! S–seb is coming and he would probably hurt you!" Lou told her frighteningly and stumbled upon seeing the crowd giving way to the campus bad boy.

Her knees shivered, "San... San, he's here!"

Sebastian clenched his jaw when he saw Hermione on the floor. His heartbeat too fast and loud, "What happened to her?" He asked calmly as he needed to be relaxed.

Roy finally loosened up and pushed Sandra away from his sight. "Move away, I'll be the one who will bring her to the clinic."

"Don't touch her!" Sebastian commanded shortly but Roy insisted and bent his knees low. "I said, don't touch her!"

His voice changed and became thick, deep enough to scare anyone around him. Sebastian pushed him away from Halora and was about to carry her.

"Back off, bad boy! She doesn't want to see you again!"

"And you think she wants to see your face too?! Come on! Don't be a fool because you are old enough to anticipate things out!"

Ego propelled Roy to punch Seb who was about to scoop Halora. He was breathing heavily upon seeing his bleeding lips. "You surprised me, man but I won't be afraid to fight with you!"

Sandra narrowed her eyes and watched Seb clenched his fists calmly. She felt too nervous as Roy was a popular and outstanding player of Karate.

"Don't try to hurt him, Roy! Please, please, I am begging you!" She shouted, hoped that her cousin will grant her a plea. "Listen to me, Roy! I... I won't bother that girl again if you only stop!"

"Shut your mouth, Sandra! Your opinion is not needed at the moment!" Roy and Sebastian scowled because of her annoying voice.

Her friends quickly pulled her before the boys forgot that Sandra is a girl too.

Sebastian turned his head sideways and noticed that Halora moved her fingers. He then quickly run towards her and said, "Wake up! Wake up, now! You have to take a bath!"

The crowd giggled but stopped when the bad boy looked at them.

"Don't be an actress! Come on! You smelled like rotting garbage...," He whispered into her ears until Halora opened her eyes.

Roy widened his eyes and said, "Halora!"

She then slowly touched her hair, her face as she was soaked in a basin of eggs and tomatoes.

She was completely looked like a mess yet Sebastian Woo touched her without grossing her out. "Wh–what happened? I... I don't know what exactly...,"

"The basket!" Halora remembered that she manipulated the basket. Upon closing her fists it was magically crumpled and the nine angels fell to the floor.

"Where do you think you are going, huh?" Seb stopped her from running away from him again. "Come with me! You can use my PE uniform temporarily,"

But she wiggled and replied, "I don't need your help and I have still my PE uniform! That only means that I am fine and can handle things like this."

"Halora, wait for me!" Roy shouted but Sandra stopped him from following her to the locker room. "Let go of my hand, Sandra!"

He looked at her angrily but she was too hard-headed. "Just let her be, Adrian! She's nothing but a poor girl who's only trying to get into our lives!"

Sandra peeked around the classroom until she met Sebastian's gaze. He was furious, and silently gawking in her. "You have one chance left to change, Sandra. And if you won't stop pestering her, you will solely regret it!"

"S–seb," she called his name but the campus bad boy turned his back on her. He followed Halora to the locker room with the gang members who are silently running with him.

"Young Master," said the youngest member, named Yong. "She's right over there!" He pointed out the girl who was looking for something she can't find.

Sebastian smiled widely and whispered, "Thank you, Yong, for manipulating her locker the other day."

He is a campus bad boy and before meeting Halora, he would always start a fight with anyone else.

"Where is it? I put it right here the other day!" She stomped her right foot as she couldn't find anything to wear in her locker room.

She was completely in trouble when Sebastian appeared, leaned against the wall. "What are you looking for, young lady? It seemed like you can't find what you are searching for,"

Halora rolled her eyes. She wanted to run away but she smelled horrible.

Will, she going to accept the bad boy's offer or she will remain rigorous and a total mess?

And what will happen if Halora discovered the truth about the witch's scourge? Will, she going to believe in the rumors about her parents?
