?She pushed Joanna''s hands off and started walking away. To catch up with her Joanna also had to quicken her pace.
After two minutes of running, she finally caught up to the angrydy.
"Drey, I understand I messed up and that you must be mad at me right now but it hasn''t reached the point of you pretending not to know me right?" Joanna asked, her gaze focused on Audrey who was avoiding looking at her.
"You are the one at the wrong here and as far as I know you are not in the position to call the shots here," Audrey said.
For the second time, she held Joanna''s right-hand clutching her left hand. She wriggled her hand out of her grip but she was gentle about this.
No matter how upset she was she could never bear to hurt her best friend.
"Drey, wait up?" Joanna shouted after thedy who had used her vampire speed to cover a huge distance.
Although there were so many students on the walkway, Joanna ignored all of them.
She never had a good rtionship with anyone else except Audrey so she had no reason to pause to exchange pleasantries with them.
This time around Audrey made sure Joanna didn''t catch up to her with ease. To achieve this she kept on using her powers to create a huge gap between them.
"What''s wrong with those stupid girls?" Tiffany standing on the stairs outside the basketball field asked her gaze following every movement Joanna and Audrey running inside the basketball field made.
Even though she was standing in the midst of her friends her shy clothes and essories made her stand out.
She stood in the middle while her friends shared themselves into two groups, each group stationed themselves at her side.
"They are running like cat and mouse. It''s so rare to see them fight. For them to bring their misunderstanding to the public, I believe it isn''t a small argument…,"
"And this makes it the perfect time to strike. With no one there to protect her, she will be nothing but a weak girl like she was in the past," Doris cut in, her piercing res concentrated on Joanna in particr.
"So what if she and Tomboy are on bad terms? Don''t forget she still has the evil bird that follows her wherever she goes," replied Nora.
The mere thought of that dreadful night in the dark vi made her shudder.
Although she yearns for revenge, never does she want to experience the same thing or anything simr to what transpired in the vi that night.
"The evil bird isn''t in sight so that means she is alone," An evil smirk appeared on Tiffany''s pretty face as she red at the girl she hates to the core.
On the field, Joanna was trying to hold Audrey but somehow she couldn''t even get an arm''s reach to Audrey who kept on using her powers.
Just like how werewolves and vampires using their powers publicly in the Kingdom wasn''t prohibited, so also it was in all schools of all levels.
The difference between using powers in the schools and the Kingdom, in general, was that the rules guiding the usage of powers in school were stricter.
"Teaching her a lesson is all we need to show her who are the ones in charge here. We have been letting her do whatever she wants that is why she is acting proud…,"
"I am not against us showing her where she belongs… In fact, I want us to deal with her in a way we have never done to avenge my leg she broke but…," Sophie standing at Tiffany''s right-hand side paused to catch a breath.<novelnext></novelnext>
She brought back her gaze to her friends standing by her side. "I just want to remind you guys whether you have forgotten where we were heading before we bumped into these good-for-nothing friends," Sophie reminded.
"OMG!" Nora eximed with widened eyes. "Gosh, I can''t believe we almost missed Raymond''s first officialpetition after his return".
"We can think about how to teach her a lesson but that will beter. Right now we must hurry if we don''t want to miss Ray''s firstpetition. He needs our support," Sophie said in a calm tone.
"What is the use of panicking?" Tiffany asked, rolling her eyes. "With our powers, we can arrive there before the match starts," Tiffany added.
"Let''s go. Who knows we might get a glimpse of him in the dressing area before he goes to thepetition arena," Doris said.
The mere imagination of getting a glimpse of his godly body at a close distance made her eyes lit up.
"Let''s leave for the swimming arena," Tiffany said, instantly vanishing afterpleting her sentence.
The other threedies followed suit.
Joanna was more concerned about appeasing her best friend to care about what was going on.
Audrey took Joanna and cracked almost the entire huge campus. All Joanna''s pleas and coaxes seem to fall on deaf ears because Audrey didn''t spare her a minute of her time despite all their running.
They were still circling the buildings and before Joanna realised it she found herself in a bubbling environment.
The screams, cheers, apuds and chatters mixed together made the Twilight University Swimming arena very lively.
Because everyone was talking at the same time it was very hard to distinguish who owned which voice.
The increasing screams of crazy fans made Joanna momentarily shift her gaze to the pool to see those participating in thepetition.
Since they were swimming while covering their heads with caps and wearing goggles Joanna couldn''t see the faces of thosepeting.
Just when thepetitors were close to the finishing line, Joanna recalled why she was here in the first ce.
"Drey, please hear me out huh?" Joanna begged as she continued walking.
Despite the cheers of victory which soon erupted in the air, Joanna paid no attention to the ongoingpetition.
Meanwhile, inside therge pool, six guys who had taken off their goggles took pleasure in their fans'' cheers as they looked around the arena.
The guy in the middle wearing a blue cap stopped looking around. His eyes widened and came to a fixation when theynded on a girl in a green dress chasing anotherdy.
"She is the one," He muttered his eyes following Joanna wherever she went.
"I can''t believe I have finally found her. This is great," His natural pink lips curled into an evil smirk as he watched Joanna exit the hall.
