Chapter 1: Road Trip
"All is going according to plan." Isaac said out loud to himself as he hung up the phone. An eerie smile was plastered on his face as the sun slowly disappeared from sight and night over took the sky. "Soon the Chosen One will arrive and He Who Walks Behind The Rows will become flesh."
-Chicago-
The silent morning was brought to a screeching halt as the alarm clock rang. A creamy pale hand slowly appeared out of the bed covers and slammed down on the off button. With the alarm clock quiet the hand quickly disappeared back under the covers, where it belonged. A couple minutes went by before the silence was once again broken, only this time it was from a knock on the door.
"Faith, get up! Today's the road trip!" a cheerfully, sing song voice called out from the other side of the door. A strong of curse could be heard coming from under the covers. "Faith-"
"I'm up! I'm up! Go bother your fuckin' boyfriend!" the newly seventeen year-old girl yelled pushing the covers off.
"Jeez. Not a morning person." the girl said walking away. Faith sighed angrily leaning back against the headboard. Running her fingers through her slightly wavy black hair trying to get some of the tangles out. It didn't work. Emerald green eyes glanced around the room before landing on the clock. Hearing the sound of a bed squeak from the next room over caused Faith to grimace, but she quickly got out of bed and made her way to the bathroom muttering about how it was too early.
It didn't take long for Faith to get ready. Running her creamy pale fingers through her damp hair before traveling out of the bathroom and downstairs. Marie, Faith's sister, sat next, almost directly on her boyfriend's lap. Faith rolled her eyes while snatching a piece of toast from her sister's plate.
"Hey!" Marie protested, but didn't move from her spot. Faith just walked to the fridge and grabbed a soda.
"You shouldn't drink soda for breakfast." Marie stated in her normally sweet voice.
"If I'm goin' to be force to spend the entire day in a car with you and Zeke I'm goin' to need this." Faith stated taking a drink. Marie scoffed, but didn't say anything else.
"Are you all packed for the road trip?" Zeke asked wrapping his arms around Marie.
"It's not a road trip. You just volunteer to give us a lift to Nevada, and yes my backpack is already in the trunk." Faith said throwing the empty soda can in the trash and leaving the kitchen.
"We're leaving in a couple of minutes." the older sister stated, but Faith wasn't listening. Quickly jogging back up to her bedroom, she open the door to reveal the empty, bare walls. About a month ago Marie and Faith's parents moved to a small town in Nevada, but because school wasn't out they allowed the sisters to stay until the school year was over. Now that school was finally over the sisters were on their way to Nevada. Zeke just wanted to come along for the trip. Faith didn't know why, but she really didn't like him, every time she's around him she gets this strange, bad feeling.
Putting on socks then her traditional converse shoes, Faith headed out the door. Quickly making her way out of the house, she took a seat on the hood of the car waiting for her sister and Zeke to show up. The sun shone down making Faith glad she wore he ratty jeans that fit her like a second skin and her black spaghetti strap tank top that showed a hint of midriff.
"Are you ready?" Zeke questioned exiting the house. Faith nodded a little bit uneasy.
"Where's Marie?" Faith asked.
"She'll be down in a minute." was the cryptic answer. Faith looked anywhere, except at Zeke, wishing that Marie would hurry up. Zeke stepped off the porch taking slow strides towards Faith until she could almost feel the heat radiating off him.
"Zeke, could you help me!" Marie called out from within the house. Faith could hardly contain her joy as she watched Zeke disappear from view.
