The Lion in the NightChapter One
There it was again. It was just starring at him, mocking him. He couldn't take it anymore. Why was this happening to him?
Seth made his way over to his desk in his eighth period math class and there it was;that white sheet of paper on his desk. This was really starting to creep him out. Seth slowly made his way over to his desk and just stared at the letter for a second. Did he really want to know what this note said? Everyday a new note had appeared on his desk, everyday a new message, but everyday it was signed by the same person, the Lion. Seth didn't know what that meant and he wasn't sure if he wanted to find out, but yet again, he found himself opening the letter, his curiosity overriding his good sense. Today the letter said:
"Veni, vidi, vici. I came, I saw, I conquered." –Caesar
I came, I saw, and I will conquer. Beware.
The Lion
Seth was beginning to get freaked out by all of this; this was starting to get serious. He had no time to contemplate the meaning of the new letter, however, because the bell rang, signaling that class had started. Seth shoved the letter in his pocket and sat down as the rest of the class settled down. Instead of paying attention to his math teacher, Seth pondered whether of not he should tell someone about this. Was someone seriously out to get him, or was he just being paranoid? Seth did not know the answer to his question so he decided to ask Lillian about it. Maybe Lillian could shed some light on the mysteriousness of the letters. So Seth sat there, for the next twenty minutes counting the seconds left till he could talk to Lillian.
After what seemed like hours, but was really only 40 minutes, Seth heard the bell ring, signaling the end of school. He ran out the door and to Lillian's locker.
"Lillian! Lillian!"
"Calm down Seth, what is it?"
"I need to talk to you."
"Okay about what."
"Can we do this in private or something, where there aren't so many people around?"
"Sure, follow me." Lillian led Seth to a tree out in the school yard and waited till no one was around. "Okay now spill your guts. What is it?"
"Well, I keep getting these letters."
"And…"
"And that's it."
"You dragged me all the way out here for that."
"Lillian, these letters are seriously starting to creep me out. Everyday I walk into my eighth period math class to find a note sitting on my desk. That means that someone must know where I sit in math."
"So…"
"So Lillian, they keep writing me creepy, threatening letters. Like today, it said, 'I came, I saw, andI will conquer. Beware.' What if I'm being stalked or something."
"I wouldn't loose sleep over it Seth, it's probably just someone playing a practical joke on you. I hear that Brian is still pretty ticked at you, maybe he is just trying to rattle your nerves."
"Lillian, I have this feeling that it is much more serious than that."
"I think that your paranoia just makes you think that it is much more serious than it actually is."
"I'm not so sure."
"Fine, Seth, would you like me to look into it or something, you know find out who the culprit is. Would that make you fell better?"
"Yes."
"Fine, I'll do it. Anything to get you to stop being so paranoid over this whole situation. Now I have to get to track practice and I believe that you have to get to play practice, in fact I see Mrs. Plummer…"
"Call her Mom."
"No. I see that Mrs. Plummer is here to take you to practice." Seth looked hesitant to leave as if he had more to say to Lillian. "Just go Seth, it will be alright, you'll see. If anyone tries to hurt you, they have to go through me first."
"Promise you'll look into it."
"I promise, now go."
"Okay, see you later Lillian."
"Bye Seth. Love ya."
As Seth ran off to meet his mother, he was still uneasy about the letters. While he trusted his sister's judgment, he felt that she was wrong on this one. He could not explain it, but he felt as though something seriously bad was going to happen.
