Running
Chapter 1: Prologue
Willow Vandom wasn't an ordinary girl. Willow Vandom was an orphan. When she was five years old she had watched, as a man named Phobos had brutally killed her parents leaving her an orphan. When the police had found her crying over her parents they had felt pity for her and had put her in an Institute. Twelve years had passed and she still lived there. The ones who took 'care' of the orphans where all cruel. They made the children cook, clean and fend for themselves. Will was one of the older kids and she had too take care of the younger ones.
It was Friday night and Will was in her shared room packing her belongings. Erica her room mate was helping her pack. It was almost midnight and Will had to leave at precisely midnight. "You sure about this?" asked Erica
"Yeah I'm sure. I can't stay here for ever" Will said as she closed her duffle bag and put it over her shoulder. Tears shined in both of their eyes because ever since Erica had come to the Institute she was like Will's little sister. They where inseparable and always had each other's backs. Erica quickly gave Will a sisterly hug which Will returned.
"I'm gonna miss you" Erica said as they broke apart
"Same here. Why don't you come with me? We have enough time and…" Will said but Erica interrupted her
"Will I can't. I have to take care of the others. You better go before they come and catch you" Erica said. When Will looked at the clock she noticed that it was midnight so she opened the window and turned around to face Erica. "Good luck and don't tell anyone about these strange things that have been happening to you. Got it?" said Erica
"Yeah. I won't. Bye" Will said as she let the tears fall while jumping out of the window and landing straight on her feet. When she was firmly on the ground she ran and ran till she couldn't see the Institute anymore. She looked a head of her and saw the long road ahead of her. 'This is gonna be one hell of a walk' she thought as she started walking to Heatherfield.
