It was an accident.
I didn't see them coming, we had no idea that this would happen. My big sister was driving the car, having succeeded in convincing mom and dad that she was old enough to drive. It took her a while, but she got her own car in the end and to celebrate she had taken us out for ice cream. Just me and her.
I was strapped in the back, my seat belt secured tightly around me. We were driving in the mountains; the sleek tar road in front of us was pounded with heavy rain. I wasn't scarred; I had my big sister with me. She glanced in the rear view mirror to make sure I was okay, smiling. I happily waved back and allowed her to continue driving. On this wet, dark, sharp curved road, you had to be careful.
Even though I was only seven and she sixteen, we had a tight relationship. She loved me, we were happy. So, why did it happen?
There was no time to react, like I said we didn't see them coming. This big heavy monster jumped right in the middle of the road as my sister turned a corner near a steep hill. The car jerked to the side as she tried to avoid it, slamming on the breaks. I could hear my voice echo around me, my head swinging with the car. We swerved for a few moments, the slippery road killing any friction that might have stopped us sooner, and slammed into the side railing.
All was silent.
I opened my eyes, my sight dizzy from the lack of control. I saw my sister humped over the steering wheel, her arms hanging slack to the side as the shattered glass in front of her dripped lightly of her blood. She had hit the window. I coughed a warm liquid starting to fill my lungs. The car creaked and slightly rocked forward when I shifted. We were hanging over the cliff, a lake waiting to swallow us up into darkness below.
Noise reached my ears.
I forced my aching body to move and peer outside. What I saw, I didn't understand. The monster was there, standing big and gruff, but now he was faced with four other people that I never seen in my life. What were they doing there, I would never know.
"H-help," I choked out weakly, calling out to the boys who were facing the night mare that had come to life. I tired to pry open the door, but it wouldn't give. There was no chance of me moving, least I cause the car to topple over into the hands of darkness. So I took my hands and slapped the glass, calling them as loudly as my sore lungs could. "Help! Help us!"
The monster turned his head towards me.
The rain turned the hard earth into mush, causing the side of the mountain to support us with difficulty. With my sister's heavy body in front and my small one in the back, I knew we didn't have much of a chance. The car tipped dangerously lower over the edge, the back part no longer touching the pavement.
"Help!"
The four figures froze when they noticed the car tattering off the cliff and the two passengers inside. My spirit rose and I pounded harder on the glass window. They looked utterly surprised. As if…I wasn't suppose to be there. The monster, however took this chance and attacked them.
That was a mistake.
The big ball of energy shot shook the mountain side. I heard someone shout, "Yusuke, stop!" but it was too late. The car fully tipped over. It happened so fast: crashing through the trees, how the water was suddenly filling up the car, and my screams for help that went unheard. Nothing, no one would make it.
I was afraid.
I hastily unbuckled my self and tried to open the door again. It was jammed. I watched, terrified and frantic as the water came seeping in already taking the front. My sister's body was submerged. The air was tight, my heart raced. I pounded the glass, frantically calling, "Help! Help! Mommy, daddy! Help us!" but all I saw outside the window was darkness, the rain adding a heavy blanket of despair over the forest.
The car was pulled under from all the water. I watched as the last piece of land disappeared from me, three figures rushing down the mountain towards me in haste. But that deep gut feeling was telling me…they wouldn't make it. The next thing I saw was the pure blue dark water, nothing but air bubbles escaping from the tight pressured space was the only thing beside that.
I whimpered as the water came up to my thighs, rising. "Mom," I cried my own set of liquid pouring from my eyes. I hugged up my knees; a pool of cold hands gripped my shoulders. "Mom, where are you, and dad? Where's big bro? Why…why won't…"
My questions went unanswered, my pleas of salvation going to an unheard god. Was this how I was going to die? I already had a gut sinking feeling that my sister was dead. The impact had sent her head flying into the glass, cracking her skull, killing her instantly. I was to die alone.
I took a shuddering deep breath.
It might not be so bad. If I had been good during my short life, then I must have a place with grandma. I hopped my sister was in a nice place, like I knew I would soon be. Then, it that place I knew I wouldn't be alone.
The water went over my head.
My eyes stung from the cold water.
The air in my lungs burned out quicker than I thought, and was replaced by the cold fluid.
The car sunk deeper and deeper into the water, killing hope of any type of rescue. There was complete darkness, cold death giving darkness.
And then I died.
It was an accident.
