Chapter 1
A/N: This is my first fan fiction ever so I'm very exited to hear what you guys think of it. Please read, review and most importantly: enjoy!
I was just doing my homework, like I always do, at the last minute because; procrastination. It was early in the morning, just before school, I had the first period off so I used the extra time wisely. I was listening to my favourite music, the song that I discovered about two days ago and I'm now listening to on repeat, hoping that I would never get tired of it, knowing that in a week or two I would be. The weird thing was, I had the idea that something was about to happen since a few days before the incident so I didn't think anything of it anymore, still, something seemed off but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. Of course I had always been paranoid, but for no reason, they would never be able to find us here.
So when I finished my homework, I ate some breakfast and ran off to school I didn't think anything bad was going to go happen. When I got home, everything was totally different, from that moment on my life as I knew it ceased to exist.
I was just your average teenage boy, just a kid. Somebody you would just walk past on the street. Sure, I didn't have any parents anymore but I'm fine with that now, well I'm not happy about it but I did accept it. I now live with my uncle and lead a completely normal life.
School had been okay, it wasn't great, most of my lessons were boring, and it always felt like that all the information that they made me study repeatedly was just useless information that I never was going to use in my further life, not that I had anything to say about the matter.
I was always glad to go home after school and do whatever I wanted to do, I was finally free of the will of my teachers. Of course they made me do my homework after school and I still had to study for the tests I had later that week, but besides than that I was totally free.
When I opened the door of my house, everything was normal. As always, I shouted "Hey, I'm home" while walking in. This time nobody replied, which was odd as the door hadn't been locked, I just assumed that he didn't hear me, I just shouted again "anybody here?".
Still, no reply. I walked through the empty house, looking for my uncle. I just assumed he had forgotten to lock the door and that he was out for groceries. That's when I found him, I went to the kitchen, hoping for some food but all I found was blood, everywhere.
I immediately freaked out, it wasn't just a puddle, it was all blood, the walls, the floors, even the ceiling. "BEN? Where are you? please, tell me you're okay" I screamed. I couldn't help but think about the fact that it was an awful lot of blood for one person. I walked into the kitchen, almost gagging from the intense smell of copper. I tried not to think about the sound my sneakers made while I walked through the red liquid on the floor.
The moment I heard him, was very scary, I didn't know if it was uncle Ben or a stranger willing to do the same to me as they did to the person, or persons the blood on the floor belonged to. It was just a small cough but I heard it. Despite the fact that the person coughing wasn't even my uncle, I still rushed to the sound and found my uncle just lying there in what seemed like an uncomfortable position, he was laying on something, I couldn't tell what. There was too much blood for me to normally function, the smell was agonising, the sight was even more horrible.
I fell to my knees, trying to see where Ben was hurt and trying to help him when he said something, "No, Peter, please, don't." he said to me while gently pushing me away.
"NO, NO, Ben, please hold on, for me" I now saw that he was shot, several times. Blood still flooding out of his body.
"P'ter, you gotta go, they are still here."
"Who, who is still here?"
"They, them" He said while trying to move his arm in the right direction.
That's when I noticed a shadow gliding towards us and of course I looked up, I had to.
The person looking down on us was a woman, a very tall and creepy looking woman. She was staring at me, her eyes piercing trough me, the light blue, almost white eyes looked as if she could attack me at any moment. Her face was pale and she was wearing a completely white outfit, which had an enormous contrast with all the dark red. I always expected the villains to be wearing black ski masks as well as all black clothes, to try not to be seen. She obviously didn't care about stereotypes and besides, it's daytime, it wouldn't help you to wear all black.
I was still kneeling and looked at Ben for help, for him to tell me what to do, for him to tell me that this was all some kind of sick joke, but nothing happened, Ben didn't stand up laughing, he just remained laying on the ground. He looked back at me and slowly took my hand to comfort me, it wasn't really helping to calm me down but that didn't mean I wanted him to let go.
"He is not going to survive, you know that right?"
I looked back at her in disbelief "W-what d'you mean? Don't you touch him!"
"I am not going to harm him in any way, but you are."
A/N: I hoped you liked it, I'm probably going to publish a new chapter every week, probably on saturday.
