Going through and re uploading the chapters, fixing the little things and such. My lovely friend Raven decided to be my beta, so hopefully quality will improve 3 I do not own The covenant and please review.
Prelude-
Sara laughed as she slid into the seat of the car her parents let her borrow for the day. She and her younger sister, Leah, wanted to get away from the house and were now casually pulling out of Wal-Mart and heading to the movies.
Sara had just gotten her license. To say that Leah was rather afraid when her older sister was driving would be an understatement. Her sister couldn't even walk straight when she was trying, and her finesse in a car wasn't much better. Sara just laughed at Leah's worries, though inside she was also nervous while driving.
At an intersection, Sara reached for Leah's drink, which her sister promptly snatched away. Leah, being the youngest, usually had an attentive complex concerning sharing. Sara would always eat Leah's left over food or try and share clothes with the younger girl, etc.
They were five years apart in age, Sara having just turned seventeen and Leah having turned twelve earlier in the year, though she was about as mature as Sara was.
Well, most of the time.
"That's mine! You got your own!" She cried.
Sara frowned, turning to her. "Just give me one fucking drink, geez!"
"No! No drinking and driving!" Leah shouted. "And keep your eyes on the road!"
Sara laughed as she reached for the bottle of water and Leah jerked, neither of them realizing that Sara had run a red light. The two girls, still grinning, made eye contact before the headlights of a car blinded both of them. They saw the realization dawn on each other and knew they didn't have time to react properly. Each girl tensed their body for contact and wished that they had been smart enough to wear their seatbelts.
Neither girl had bothered. It was a bad habit. Maybe it would have saved their lives.
