The party

   The school bell rang and students rushed out in Multitude like they had been trapped and had just regained freedom. "Hey Lisa, wait up", I said as I ran to her. “Where is Eva?” she asked looking around, “she is far behind, she walks too slow, and where are you hurrying to? I asked. "What do you think? she said, giving me a curious face, "we have so much to prepare for the party” she answered.

     "Eva over here," I said, waving to her. She came towards us, and we all went together to Lisa's house. "Are your parents not back from their trip? I asked. "Nope, and they won't be coming back until month's end” she answered.

Lisa is the only child of her parents, just like me, but her parents are always on different business trips and so are not always around. We arrived at Lisa's house, a big duplex painted with gray and white colors."Wow,” Eva said, “home sweet home, welcome to my humble abode,” she said, laughing and bowing to us. I am always amazed anytime I come to Lisa's house because of the huge sitting room, perfect decor, and big golden chandelier. 

      "Let's go to my room, and I have the perfect dress for you Eva,” she said as we climbed the stairs to her room. Lisa's room is large, painted pink and white, with our childhood pictures pasted on the wall just like mine. Lisa and I have been friends since we were kids, we attended the same elementary school and even kindergarten. ”Let's rock and roll", I said as I connected my phone to the Bluetooth speaker and started playing loud music. “Let's get ready", I said as I brought out my clothes from my bag.

      "Eva, I will do your makeup for you, I am good at it,” I said, arranging the makeup items on the table.

 Lisa brought a beautiful navel blue, sleeveless, mini gown for Eva and a black cropped top, mini skirt, and heels for herself. “You guys will look astonishing in those clothes, no one will probably recognize you guys”, I said as I finished Eva's makeup. I tied my hair into a ponytail and wore a pair of black tight-fitted trousers and an ash-colored sleeveless cropped top. 

      We looked at ourselves in the mirror and started laughing because we didn't look like high schoolers, instead, we looked like college students.

We took a taxi and arrived at Zoey's house, where the party was taking place. As we entered, loud music and the smell of cigarettes, beer, champagne, whiskey, and other alcoholic drinks filled the air. “Zoey must be keeping the company of college bad guys. If not, how was he able to buy these drinks", I asked. 

       "Let's just enjoy the evening", Lisa answered, already dancing.” hey!! Our class's second scholar is here, Philip said. We walked towards Philip who was sitting close to Zoey, the birthday boy, “happy birthday class pres,” I said as I hugged him. "Thank you, I thought you guys won't be able to make it” he answered as he handed us cold glasses of beer. "We wouldn't miss it for anything", Lisa answered as she winked and smiled. 

Eva gulped down her glass of beer in one shot. "Easy girl", I said, looking at her, “that's it, girl, loosen up,” Lisa said, giving her an encouraging look. We soon started talking and dancing to the music being played, Eva looked dizzy, "it seems she is already drunk", I said to Lisa. “Eva let's go and Wash your face in the bathroom” Lisa offered to Eva. 

      She took Eva to the bathroom while I continued sipping my drink. Zoey leaned very close to me and removed something from my face and then whispered “You got something on your face” he said, looking me straight in the eyes. "Thank you", I answered, smiling. “Wow!!!! You two look great together” Lisa said as she and Eva returned from the bathroom. “Eva, are you feeling better now?”, I asked. "She totally can't hold her drink", Lisa answered. "I think I need to go out and get some fresh, air,” Eva said as she went out.

 Eva's POV

    I couldn't see, breathe, or walk properly. I staggered out of the house but then bumped into someone. "Ahhh!!! Look at where you are going” the person shouted angrily. "I'm so sorry", I said, trying to see the person clearly, it's Jira I said to myself. 

“Look who is here” Evenly, Jira's minion and friend said. “Wow!!! Clothes make a man” Jira said, chuckling evilly as she put her hands on my shoulders and pulled me back inside the house but to a different part.” Hey everyone, I bought a dancer for us” she said to some guys. “Not bad, she looks sexy,” one of the guys said, looking at me with an evil smirk on his face. He handed me a glass of beer which I refused, but Jira kicked me with her heels and whispered something in my ears which made me collect the drink. "That's it," another guy said.” dance, dance, dance” They started cheering, and I began to dance.

 Ivy's POV

      "Where is Eva? I asked, looking around. "She must have probably gotten outside", Lisa answered, "okay I will go and find her," I said as I stepped out.

 I got outside but couldn't find her, so I went inside to check again, then I saw someone dancing and crying in front of Jira, Evelyn, and some guys, "she must have seen someone to bully” I thought. I looked closely to see the person and found it was Eva. “Eva stops dancing,” I said as I moved closer to her and grabbed her hands. Jira held her other hand to prevent her from leaving, "let her go” I said. “I won't,” Jira said, pulling her towards herself.” if you want her to leave, then you will dance for us,” someone said.

        “I don't intend on dancing and neither will she,” I said. I was about to leave when Jira pulled my hair, I turned and slapped her. “Ohhh. She is a feisty one” another guy said as they watched us. Jira pulled my hair and pushed me down, we soon began fighting, pushing tables, and throwing glasses.

       I picked up a broken glass and swung it in front of Jira, it gave her a cut on her face. Jira overpowered me, pushed me down, and began slapping and punching me, I couldn't get myself freed as Evelyn held me down. Eva started hitting and shouting, trying to call Lisa and others for help, but the loud music drowned her voice.

      Blood dripped from Jira's cut and dropped into my mouth, strangely it tasted so sweet that I wanted more, super strength came on me and I pushed Jira, climbed on her, and bite strongly into her hands for more blood. She screamed in terrible pain, and the guys who were watching us fight pushed me off her. I started feeling weak as though something was sapping away my strength, my legs were shaking, and I could hear my name being called by Lisa, Eva, and Zoey faintly as I closed my eyes.

Lisa POV

    “People are fighting,” someone said, we ran to the scene where we found Jira and Ivy in a serious fight. Ivy was biting Jira's hand, “stop them” I shouted I moved closer to them, as I and some guys pulled Ivy from Jira. Blood was on Ivy's mouth as she had bitten deep into Jira's hand. I rushed to her as she fell unconscious. Eva rushed to where I was with Ivy and started crying “Call the ambulance quickly” I shouted to Zoey, who stood there looking helplessly at Jira and Ivy.
