After the End

Yanglin was in a small night club in down town Detroit where she had recently moved after Her and Tsume had left that place long ago, it had been almost 5 years now,

she still talked to her sister, phone calls here and there, emails, stuff like that. Yanglin hadn't changed much, her hair had gottin longer and darker, she had more

muscle and went back to wearing dark cloths again. Her wardrobe would change every now and then from tight black leather and emo cloths, to Baggy and straight up gangster.

She had made some very close new best friends, she hardly went anywhere with out them. They were who she was hanging out with in the club then too. She loved and protected

them just like they did her. The first one she met was Catie which was really a long time friend but they hadnt seen each other in some time, that girl was

gangster, she could beat any boys butt. She was the strongest girl Yanglin knew besides her sister.

Then was the all famous Punk, that chick, she didn't care what people said or thought, weather you liked it or not, she would speak her mind. Jason was the most special out of the

group, you know what I mean by special, the kind that needs extra attention, he was also the most crazy, he was up for anything weather it was a drive by shooting or if it was

a friendly trip to MCdonalds. But the most special to Yanglin was James, he was the boy she admired the most, she looked up to him more than anyone, in her eyes he was

absolutly invincable. They werent dating or anything like that. You better know though, she loved the boy, very dearly. They all called her Sinister Sarah now, sence no one really

knew how she got the name Yanglin. It still pained her very much to have her old name just forgotten like that. But what could she do? They insisted on calling her by her new name.

Ofcourse she and her sister would never forget about their names and that place that they would always hold close and dear to their hearts for ever until the day they die, or until

the end of time. Which ever came first. You following me? I hope so. Anyways, Yanglin had gottin a tattoo when she had first got home from that special place, it was a cresent moon

on her wrist to remind her of the fun times she had. Everytime she looked at it it would make her smile and an image of HIM would pop in her head. How could she ever forget him.

She vowed she never would, and she intented to keep that promise. She was dancing with Catie and Punk, minding her own buissness when this creep walked up on her. She started

dancing with him, thinking he could be a pretty great guy, despite appearences, she still had that heart of gold which made her always look for the best in people, which in detroit,

usually got her in alot of trouble. The guy started getting handsy and she had told him to quit four times. He didnt know what he was getting his self into, Sinister had seen alot in

her small time she had been born on earth, she had fought many battles, seen scarier things than the creeps that lived on the streets there where she now called home. Ofcourse it would never

honestly feel like home to her, no place did. Next thing the creeper knew, he was getting an old fashion uppercut. "Whats is it this time Sarah?" Catie yelled at her, "this

creep wouldn't stop touching me, after I repeatedly kept telling him to stop." She replied, "oooooh, looks like someone is in some deep crap." Catie said with a smirk, and kicked the guy as

hard as she could right in the ribs. Sin kicked him in the face an they walked outside,Punk followed them smiling away like someone gave her a million dollars.

"DUDE, you guys just missed a fight." Catie yelled, she was always hyped up after a good fight.

"Between who!" James yelled. "Me, Catie, and this guy, he was a real jerk." Sin said

with a smile, "Who won?" James asked, Catie and Sin looked at him like he was completely stupid, "Who do you think won?" Catie yelled, Punk started laughing and James looked completely confused,

"Ofcourse we did, dont we always." Sin said for Catie who was at the moment on the ground with Punk laughing so hard she was holding her sides. Sin started laughing

as well, it was just to funny, when they got into fights, her and Catie always won, no matter who it was against. James crossed his arms and huffed, "well excuse me for thinking someone

other than me could ever defeat the great Sin and Catie." He whisperd to his self which was no good, Sin could still hear as good as a fox demon. "James, you know better than anyone no one

can beat us." Sin said with a big smile on her face. James sighed and nodded in agreement. Punk helped Catie off the ground and they all climbed in Sins truck to start on their way

back to their house,Jason came running out of the club, "Was you guys just going to leave me there?" He shouted, Sin looked at him and smiled "dont we always try?" she said.

Jason looked at her with an annoyed look and crawled in the back with James and Punk, "awe you know im kidding." Sin said with a acctually had his own house, he just chose to stay with

his closest friends. Catie got up front with Sin and Punk and James was in the back with Jason like always. Sin turned on the CD player and Not Afraid by Eminem started playing. Her and Catie

loved that song. Sence they were younger they had always planned to move to Detroit, along with was their kind of place. They had already made alot of friends and enemies as well.

They pulled up to the gate and the gate keeper opened it for them. They lived kind of along way from town, In the forest if thats what you want to call it. There was an old abandoned

castle place that Sin, Catie, and Punk along with Jason bought together. It had a gothic style to it, which freaked Catie out a little bit. She was never into the Goth thing. But she

eventually got used to it and grew to love it. It was home to all of them. It was Sins home too, but there was only one place she called home and she promised her sister she would

try to live away from there, at least for a while. The house was purple with a black roof, The inside was wicked looking, it had black certains and a solid black stair case.

It was what Sin had always wanted to live in. Besides HER home. But thats a totally different story. As soon as sin walked in the door the phone started ringing, "DANG IT!"

she yelled as she started for the non stop ringing of the phone which was all the way in the living room. "Hello!" she screamed into the phone breathless. "Jeez, sis, dont

have to bite my head off." Tsume laughed. "oh, Hey sis, sorry about that, I just got in." "Oh cool, where ya been?" Tsume asked, if Tsume knew Sin went out to clubs and stuff she would

be ticked off the the maximum, "just out with friends." Yanglin replied, "stayin' out of trouble?" "Pretty much, ya know how it is down here in detroit. Kind of hard to with all the

creeps around." Sin walked through the house with the cordless and went into the kitchen to find somthing to drink while Tsume was blabbing about her day and about her new job she got

at the mall, she worked at this teen clothing store called debs. Sin got a glass of water and leaned against the counter still listening to her loving sister. "so, do you have any

idea what time it is Tsume?" "yea, I do, I just knew my knuckle head of a sister would still be awake. Vampire." Yanglin laughed at her sisters comment, only those two knew that she really

meant that. "Werewolf." Yanglin laughed back at her. "Ok, well im going to get off of here at let you get back to your little friends, and im going to try and get some much needed sleep."

Tsume said. Sin sighed,"ok, dont forget to call me tomorrow." "do I ever? goodnight Yanglin." Yanglin smiled at the sound of her name that only her sister used anymore. "goodnight."

She replied and hung up the phone, she returned to her friend in the living room. They all looked very tired, Sin laughed at Jason who was already passed out on the leather black couch.

He was snoring very loudly and she walked over to him and lightly smacked him on the back of the head. He jumped and looked around alarmed and he noticed it was Sin who did it. He rubbed his

head and sighed, "what was that for?" he asked in a grumpy tone. "That was for not going to your room and going to sleep. You always fall asleep on the chair, and James is the one whos always

stuck man handling you up the steps." James laughed when Sin yelled that at Jason, Catie chuckled and agreed with Sin, "Yea, and im sure he's getting tired of it." Catie said as she smacked Punk

on the foot who was at the time missing everything because she was falling asleep on the couch beside her. Jason sighed and looked at all his friends, he always got picked on by them, but he knew that they

loved him. All in all, he really wouldnt want it any other way. He smiled and jumped up, "well, im headin' into bed! Good night!" When he got done saying that he turned and jogged up the stairs. Knowing him though.

He couldn't do it with out tripping over his pants and hitting his face against the wall, he just laughed and shrugged it off and continued to his bed room. "I think he has the right idear." Punk stated with a

big yawn, she always put an 'R' in things or at the end of most of her words. It was one thing that made her unique. She dragged her self up the stair and into her bed room which was right beside Jason's. She hated that

room, and at the same time loved it, the only reason she disliked it was because it was indeed beside Jason's. Sometimes at night you would hear them argueing over somthing, weather it was because Jason was snoring to loud,or

he claimed he had a bad dream and was scared to sleep in his room alone which is how he would end up in Punk's room. But ofcourse she would kick him out the door as fast as he came in it.

She liked her space, and she didn't like guys that didn't know where to keep their hands. A.K.A. Jason. Catie, James, and Sin stayed up pretty late, mostly talking about music and stuff that they liked.

Catie would even sometimes go to her little desk that she had put in the darkest corner in the living room that had her own personal computer and stuff to right songs. Sin and Catie had formed a bad called

Ruff Riders, they did Rap and hip hop songs mostly. Writing music was Caties talent, Sin wrote music every now and then. Not to often, that was Caties job. They preforemd from night to night at the club they went to.

They were becoming quite popular. They didn't plan to ever get very famous. They were just happy to be up there doing somthing they enjoyed. Catie, James, and Sin stayed up for awhile that night

watching a scary movie, one of their favorites, The Bride of Chucky, acctually, that was Sin's favorite, she wore James and Catie out on it, but they watched it with her any ways. "It's kind of Cold in here,

dont you think guys?" Catie said, Yanglin nodded and they both looked at James. He sighed and got up and went to the closet to retrieve a big blanket for them all. 'If I didn't love those girls I might choke them in

their sleep or somthing.' he thought to his self and smiled, he turned back to the girls and looked at them, Sin had scooted closer to Caite who had her hand limply in the popcorn bowl and her mouth wide open never

blinking or looking away from the TV. James chuckled to his self and shook his head, 'no matter how many times we watch this they always get into it.' he returned to the couch with their blanket and they didn't even notice.

"Hello, earth to Sin and Catie." he said and waved his hand back and forth in front of them, it took them a few seconds to notice, "OH!" they both said at the same time and started laughing, "Thanks Brother." Catie said with a

chuckle. Sin scooted back over to her side of the Couch because James always got to sit in the middle, Catie and Sin both cuddled up to him, Catie on his right and Sin on his left. James shook his head again and sighed.

'I have to admit, they have grown on me.' he thought and continued to watch the movie they had seen 100 times or more. The phone rang and it scared the girls almost to death. James started laughing so hard he was almost in

tears. After Sin got her self together she answered the phone and gave James and annoyed look but had a hint of a smile on her lips. "hello?" she said into the phone, "Where Catie?" the voice on the other end asked.

"Catie, its your lover boy." Sin laughed and handed the phone to Catie. Catie and her boyfriend had been together for years now. She told Sin when they were younger they would be together forever. I guess she really meant that

too. Micha, which was her boyfriends name, even moved out to detroit for her. Ofcourse James didn't like it to well, Catie had always been like his little sister, he thought the guy was a real creep. Just because when they were

younger her disappeared alot and wouldnt talk to her for days at a time. But now she hardly ever went twentyfour hours with out talking to the guy. "Yea, I can go out with you tomorrow. I dont think we have anything major planned."

Catie told him. He didn't live with them, he thought the house was to crowded for him. So he chose to stay in his house. Catie got off the phone with him and rejoined James and Sin on the couch. Sin fell asleep on James's shoulder

half way threw the movie. She loved Chucky, she rarely fell asleep while watching it, that showed how tired she truly was. When the movie was over Catie woke her up so they could all go to bed. Sin was the first one to head up stairs,

Catie and James went to the kitchen to get somthing to drink to take with them, they did it every night. Sin went up 3 flights of rounded gothic stairs to her room which was in the main top of the house. She loved her friends, more

than anything, but she also liked her privacy. when She reached the top of the stairs she made a left turn, the first door was the bathroom then a spair bed room and then at the end of the hall way was her room. Her door was an

old centrie gothic oval style it gray with black metal lace around it. giving it that Vampire style. In side her room, she had black walls and carpet, her bed was shapped like a over sized coffin, the every thing out side of the bed, like the

skirt and the frame was black everything on the bed was red, the pillows were silk and blanket was polliester with a black bat in the middle. Ofcourse Sin was Gangster, and ghetto but she also like her gothic style, as far as being

gothic, she wasn't. But she very much adored the style. Sin turned the old timey door nob and enterd her room she loved very dearly, she had always wanted somthing like that. But it would never compete with sleeping under the stars with

acouple of very close friends and, Sin shook her head to end the memorie and walked over to her walk in closet to change into night cloths, she put on her black silk pants with a long sleeve t-shirt that had a purple moon on it.

Everyone always wondered what was up with her and purple cresent moons, but when they would ask she would just look to the ground turn her back and slowly walk away from who ever asked the question, eventually they learned it was a

touchy subject for her to talk about and stopped bringing it up. Sin walked over to her computer and turned it on. While it was loading and setting everything up she walked over to her window, which had a black lace window seat

attached to it, and sat down and looked out up at the sky. It was a beautiful night, She smiled because it was a cresent moon out, it always reminded her of that special person she had to leave. The last memorie she had of him ran threw her head.

"Yanglin looked around one last time and waved at everyone who sadly waved back, almost everyone was crying, she turned to leave and looked back and the last thing she saw before vanishing was Him, the great and most powerful demon that had ever walked the earth on his knees crying looking at her watching her disappear. That was it."

Sin looked at her tattoo on her wrist of the Cresent Moon, it seemed to glow in the real Cresent moons light. A single tear ran down her cheek at hit the moon on her wrist. She shook her head, sometimess she wished she would have never

looked back at him. It was ashame thats the last memorie she had of him befor leaving her home. Her last memorie should be of them, her last night there in the field they had found together. And the companionable silence walk to...

she let her thought end there, she looked up one last time at the moon, 'I wonder what he's doing.' Sin thought, she sighed and went to her computer desk to check her email befor going to sleep. She, unsurprisingly had an email from her

sister, she did every night. It sort of made her miss home less bad. Sin smiled and opend the email to read.

"Hey Sis, Just sending you your nightly email. When are you coming home for a visit? I really miss seein' you. Even though we talk every day on the phone and threw emails.
It just seems like you've been gone for years. Well, you kind have been gone from here a year and a half. I bet your grandmother would love to see you. I call and check in on her almost every day. She tells me you call her alot. I know you better than anyone almost, you miss her. Oh, I was going threw old photo's of us today, you'll never guess what I found on our old camera today! I attatched it to the email. Goodnight and I love you."

Sin couldn't believe what she was seeing. A photo of the whole Gang standing infront of the side of a house smiling and looking goofy. A young white haired demon with in a red kimono which was yelling at young and fiesty,short, short dark brown haired

Tsume, standing beside a young long black haired Yanglin who was looking confused trying to break up the fight with a tall emotionless super long white haired demon who was looking at his friends starting to acctually crack a smile with an old hag who was

looking annoyed at the bunch but smiling at the same time. She would never forget that day, her sister thought about bringing a camera there so take a picture. Sin started laughing at the memorie it was priceless. She smiled sadly and printed the photo out. How she missed

that place. No one would ever know how much she honestly did. She put the photo in a photo album she kept in a secret door that was under her bed along with her journal she has had for years. She hasn't read it sence the last thing she ever put in there.

She just couldn't work up enough courage to do it. She knew if she read the last thing words she ever put in it she would probably cry. She wasn't up for a good cry. A tear here and there was ok with her. But not a full cry. She did enough crying the

day and the day befor she left. She looked at her old beatin' up journal and decided to read some of it. She smiled and she laughed at the the adeventures she had writen down in there. Some where hilarious some where sad, some made her mad because of

stupid and hurtful things her sisters boyfriend said to her in the beginning. And then she came to the end. 'Time to Nut up or Shut up.' she thought, which made her smile, cause it was from one of her favorite movies ever made. 'Zombie Land.'

So, She started reading about the last Adventure she ever had, She was ofcourse in tears when she got to the end.

Her last words she wrote was 'I wont forget, I promise.' That was the last words she wrote in that little book of hers that held all of her dearest memories befor going to sleep that night she returned to the Era she was rightfullie born in.

Sin was crying, it felt really nice to just let it go. She hadn't cried like that sence the night that she left her home. Sin whiped her eyes and face off and Went over to her computer to email her sister back so she wouldn't et worried about her.

"Hey sis, I might come in for a visit real soon. It's hard though. Thank you for keeping check on Grandmother. I loved the picture. It made me cry though. Talk to you tomorrow."

Sin sent the email and climb in her warm comfortable bed, and waited for sleep to claim her.

'She could see the light at the end, and she started climbing toward it, faster and faster, but it seemed like she would never get to the top. She had a feeling she knew what was waiting for her at the end. But she couldn't get there. No matter how fast she climbed. All of a sudden the rope ladder she was climb breaks and she was sent tumbling to the hard dirt ground where, bones started to piece together and skin and legs started to form. "I told you I would get revenge on you and your sister." a female voice hissed. "No!" Yanglin screamed and Punched the creature in the face. "Hurry! climb!" a faint but familiar voice screamed from where the light was shining in. The ladder magically reformed its self and she climbed as fast as she could.
Finally she reacher the top where the light was shining in and the top half of her body came out of the familiar hole in the ground, The sun was shining and all her friends were waiting there for her, right where she left them. only they didn't have a look of saddness on there faces they were smiling and running to greet her. When everything went black and she started falling and falling and falling,
loosing sight and feel of the happiness and light that surrounded her. "NO!" she screamed.

Sin sat straight up in her bed, she was soaked with sweat and her hair was everywhere, she glanced over at the clock and saw it was only 7a.m. and barely light outside. Sin sighed and got up, she walked to the bathroom and cleaned all the sweat off her face.

She returned to her room and climbed back under her blanket. She layed their and thought while she waited for sleep to come to her once more befor she got up for the day. Not once had that dream failed to come to her every night sence she and her sister left.

Same time every night it would begin and end right on time. Sin turned over, pulled the covers over her head and fell asleep. 'Maybe the dream will eventually stop.' That was her last thought befor falling in a deep sleep.
