Chapter 3 - Penelope Decker

"Nice house, Dad."

"Your mum has a great eye for houses."

"Of course..."

"Everyone needs to settle into their rooms and get ready for school tomorrow."

"What?? But that's too early. Let's stay a little more, right, Franco?"

"That's none of my business. All I know is that I'm not keeping up the promise of forgiving enemies. I execute them immediately."

"Okay, kids. Let's make a deal. Just like your old school, you'll give them two months to change. And if they don't, you're free to...handle any Being that gets in your way."

"Deal." £££

"Hello, everyone. I'm Franco Decker."

(Side chat)

"He's so hot."

"I'm Penelope Decker, daughter of Chloe and Mark Decker. And I love enemies more than anything. So keep it up for two months."

With that, we walked over to our seats, which were right beside each other. I put on my headset to play some music, avoiding the longing stares from boys and hateful glares from girls. Franco was going through the same, but his was worse. My partner didn't even care when I came in, but Franco's was all over him, smiling.

"Well, students, I'm sure you've met our new intake. Now it's time for the normal lecture. Eli, your project, please."

"Oh... Thanks, miss. I made this project based on facts. It has to do with those we call Angel Punishers, who happen to be the demons we've always been afraid of-"

That's not true! That's my dad this bastard is talking about! How dare he!

A gentle touch made me look at Franco, who gave me a two-finger signal. And he's right - just two months, and I'd revisit Eli for this topic.

(Franco whispered)

"Patience, Penny. We have a deal."
