Jasmine ran down the dark road as fast as her feet would
allow, she could feel the adrenalin pumping though her body,
something was definitely chasing her. She could hear the being
behind her, she was fast but he was obviously faster because
the sound of footsteps was drawing closer and closer. This
reminded her when she was in a gang she feared nothing, did
whatever she wanted, and best of all people would never dream
of chasing her down because she and her homie's would fuck
them up bad. But everything was different now, and she could
never go back.
She knew that she could never out run this
guy, but what to do? Jasmine looked around for somewhere to
hide. Then she found an abandoned house, it looked really old,
almost every window had been broken, and it had graffiti
written all over it. She had never noticed it before, but it
was the perfect place to hide. It wasn't that difficult to
get in because the door had been missing, but something there
was off something was wrong about that place. The house was
fully furnished and didn't look like the inside had been
vandalized or anything. Strange though Jasmine, but she didn't
take time to investigate. She made her way upstairs and found
what looked like a child's room and hid behind an oak
bookcase.
The guy wasn't that far behind her because he
came in a couple of seconds after her. Jasmine finely got a
good look at him. He had tan skin and from what she could tell
very tall, he also had dark chocolate brown hair that covered
his eyes. He didn't look like the type of guy that would
want to hurt you, but Jasmine knew from experience that looks
were deceiving. He turned around thank God he is moving on to
the next room thought Jasmine, but instead he shut the door.
"I know you're in here." His voice smooth and deep.
Shit what do I do now? Thought Jasmine, should she come
out of her hiding place and try to run? Or should she hide and
hope for the best? She was going to make a break for the door
when he shifted, his eyes were bright yellow with slits for
pupils, sort of like a cats. Oh my fucking God! What is he?
Jasmine was too scared to run, and her chance to run was gone
because he moved in front of the door again.
"Just come
out, I promise I won't hurt you." He sounded truthful, but
she knew people could lie so well it was scary. The mysterious
man walked toward the bed and looked under it.
"Come
out, come out wherever you are!" He went to the little
closet right next to the bookcase, and opened it. He kicked
the pile of cloths that were on the floor of the closet.
"Jasmine, I really don't like paying games." How
does he know my name? Please don't find me, go away. She was
so scared she almost forgot to breathe. What did I do to
deserve this? I don't want to die not like this please some
one help me! Her heart was beating so fast and hard she was
sure that the man would hear it and find her. Just then his
head turned from the closet to the bookcase.
"Knowing
your reputation I thought that you would be more of a
challenge." She heard his footsteps coming closer to her
hiding space. Someone help me! She wanted to scream, but
nothing would come out of her throat. She was panicking.
"No
ones coming to save you." he whispered in her ear as he
grabbed her arm.
"In fact most of us want you dead."
He threw her to the floor, that's when her voice came back
to her and she let out the loudest scream she could.
"Jasmine honey, wake up!" Her mom was holding
her in her arms.
"It was all a dream baby, nothing to
fear. It will be all right." Jasmine was now crying her
dream had felt so real.
"Are you all right? Do you want
to talk about it?" her mom hated drama, and she could tell
that she didn't really want to deal with it all.
"No
I'm fine, I can't even remember what I was dreaming."
She said between sobs.
"That's my girl. Better start
getting ready for your first day of school." Jasmine had
forgotten that school started today.
Jasmine made her way
to the bathroom, and looked at the arm the man had grabbed.
She could see little purple bruises where the mans finger tips
had once been. This seriously freaked her out. What had
happened that night and who was that man? Jasmine turned the
shower on, and jumped right in not bothering to make it
warmer. She tried to remember what had happened after he threw
her on the floor. She was sure he was going to kill her. She
couldn't even remember how she even gotten home?
She
hopped out and dressed herself in tight hip huggers and a tee.
What ever had happened she was going to figure it out one way
or another.
