PROLOGUE

Have you ever felt oh so alone, even when you weren't? Nestled tightly in your blankets, warm, but you just can't seem to, unlike your best friends?

Then, BOOM! You're jolted awake. You realize that it's only the storm. . . The usual storms you are used to.

You're thirteen years old, and you hear something shatter. Scared, you hide in the closet, the door is knocked down in no time. You hear the tearing of flesh, and startled, terrified screams come from the two others in the room. Their screams turn into agonized shrieks. You know it's the end. Suddenly all noise stops, and all you can hear is your own heart pounding painfully loud.
