Das seltsame Buch - Académie de Nancy-Metz

Rain. It was the only thing that Isaya was thinking about because she was at her bus stop under
the rain without any umbrella. Then she realised that she couldn't read because of the rain.
'Oh ! My saviour !' she thought when she saw her bus. Once she was in it, she took out her mysterious
book with a little smile on her face.
Flash-Back
'Hello ! I want to give back this one and to borrow this one', Isaya said.
'Yes. Hum. This one ? Are you sure ? The librarian asked'
'Obviously ! I want it !'
'This one isn't a good book... No one who borrowed it came back but the book came back...' he
whispered.
Isaya hid her laugh.

6.45 pm
Isaya took her book and opened it. The librarian had warned her about the book, now it was too late...
Gently a luxuriant vegetation started to appear on the bus seat, everywhere near Isaya. She looked all
around her and a look of horror formed itself on her lines while she discovered that she couldn't move
any more. She was obliged to see this transformation unable to do anything. When the whole landscape
became an equatorial forest, Isaya could move. She started to panic and ran at top speed but there was
no path between the big trees and Isaya got lost. Her clothes were torn and dirty. She was still holding
the book when suddenly a noise tore the silence behind her. She turned back and saw a strange
creature. It was half human half snake. It had the figure of a man but the skin and the appearance
belonged to a snake. It showed its fangs and Isaya screamed and started to run faster than ever. She
heard the noise of it in her back. She wasn't accustomed to being in such a dense forest that's why she
stumbled and fell on the ground. The horrible animal jumped onto her and she felt its fangs on her
cheeks and her neck. After that, she passed out because she was too scared and because of her
injuries...

The first thing Isaya was conscious of was that she had an enormous headache. Then she heard
a little bip, bip... And she managed to open her eyes at that moment she realized that she was in a
hospital... She tried to remember what happened and the horrible forest came back to her mind. All of a
sudden a doctor entered her room and smiled at her.
' What, what happened ?' Isaya asked
'Someone gave you drugs and you injured yourself while trying to escape your hallucinations,' the doctor
said.
How ?'
There was a syringe on your seat. You felt nothing because of the cold, all your body was numb'
'Oh my god...' was the only thought she had...
