The next day, I woke up with all kinds of thoughts on my mind. So many things had occurred yesterday that I had no idea what to make of the current situation. The demons were back. Actually, they were never gone in the first place. It was hard to take in because a few weeks ago, I truly believed that we had killed every last one of them. But it seemed we hadn't managed to exterminate them; they were a sneaky bunch after all.
Still, even if they were back, I needed to act like nothing strange was happening. I was currently on my way to the Apex Building, and honestly, I didn't want to see my students. I knew their parents had put a lot of things in their minds about me, like the fact that I'm a killer, among other things. But that was only a detail; I could deal with their judgmental looks. I just couldn't deal with the fact that I wasn't doing anything.
