Rain came beating down against the windows of the small house. A girl looked out from her bedroom window and stared out into the dark night. She sat at her desk, taking little notice of the mess. She had short, dark brown hair, blue-gray eyes and she wore pair of brown glasses. She wore a red shirt, blue polka-dot pants and fuzzy blue socks.
Ding!
The girl turned her attention to her computer. One of her friends had just gotten on and was wanting to chat on instant messenger.
Vampyer1: Hey, how're you?
Lev90: I'm good, and you?
Vampyer1: So so.
Lev90: You got on at a bad time, I was going to head to bed in a few minutes.
Vampyer1: Ahh, that's okay. I only got on to tell you I wasn't going to be on until late tomorrow.
Lev90: That's fine, I won't either. I have that bowling tournament in the morning.
Vampyer1: Then you'd better get to bed. You'll need your strength for bowling.
Lev90: I'll need more than my strength.
Vampyer1: Haha, well good luck tomorrow, and get some sleep.
Lev90: Thanks, talk to you later.
Vampyer1: Bye.
Lev90: Bye.
The girl shut off the computer and turned out the lights. She took of her glasses and placed them on the bedside table. She climbed into bed and tried to sleep but her mind was racing with thoughts of the next day.
She looked at the clock, it read 10:53pm. She rolled over onto her back and stared up at the ceiling. She closed her eyes for a moment then opened them again and looked at the clock, which now read 3:27am.
"At least I got some sleep." she sighed, closing her eyes again.
There was a loud crash. The girl bolted up right and looked around the room. The window had been smashed to bits, letting in rain and wind.
Something slunk through the window, something big and dark. It came towards her, it's long, sharp claws reaching out to grab her.
She leaped from the bed and ran for the open door. Another creature stood in the door way, she was trapped. The first monster grabbed her around the neck and threw her out the smashed window.
She landed with a thud on the wet grass. The two creatures came through the window and grabbed her again, holding down on the ground.
"Ahh, a fine replacement for the Queen." a cold voice laughed. "Bring her, make sure she remembers nothing."
Vampyer1: Lara's missing?!
Larktheprincess: That's right.
Vampyer1: Do they have any ideas what might've happened?
RelientK101: All they know is that there was a struggle, broken glass from the smashed window and some blood on the grass outside. Other than that, there isn't anything to go on.
Vampyer1: I was just talking to her yesterday...
RelientK101: Did she seem stressed?
Vampyer1: No, she was perfectly fine. Except that she was tired and needed to get some rest for that bowling tournament today, she was fine.
Larktheprincess: Maybe she was stressed and just didn't want to worry you. She's good at hiding most of her feelings, especially if she thinks she'll hurt someone else.
Vampyer1: I'm gonna take a look around town, maybe she came here.
Larktheprincess: Worth a try.
Vampyer1: Keep me updated.
RelientK101: We will, good luck.
A boy stood up from his computer desk. His dark hair was somewhat tangled, blocking some sight from his dark eyes. He didn't show it, but he only had one thing on his mind; finding Lara.
He and Lara, the missing girl, had been friends for well over a year. Although they had never met face-to-face, they usually saw each other through short movies they sent to each other.
The boy looked around his house for a moment, to find everyone had gone. He pulled his hair behind his ear to show a hearing aid.
He had been hearing impaired since he was young, but he made the most of his hearing aid.
"Odd...I was sure Mom would still be here," he said. "I guess I'll just leave her a note."
He grabbed a piece of paper and wrote a note as to where he was going, and when he planned to be back. He went outside and began to walk up the street.
"Nothing," the boy sighed. "No trace of her anywhere."
He had walked through town twice and was now taking a break. He looked at his watch, it was almost two hours after he said he'd be back.
"I'll look again tomorrow," he said, turning around to go back home. "If I can't find her, I'll ju-"
He stopped dead in his tracks. Standing in front of him was a tall man in dark clothes. A pointed, metal mask hid his face.
"Uhh, can I help you?" the boy asked.
The man said nothing, but kept staring at the boy, almost as if he were searching for something.
"I'll be going then."
The boy walked around the man and started down the street. He was only a few blocks away from his house, but it seemed more like it was miles away.
He rounded the street corner and the man from before was standing there.
"Weren't you just back there?" the boy asked.
"Perhaps," the man replied.
"Are you lost?"
"No."
"Looking for someone?"
"No."
"Then why are you following me?"
"Because...I need you to do something for me."
"Uhh...What exac-"
Something hit the boy over the head. He fell to the ground, near unconscious. His vision began to blur and grow dark.
"I need you to disappear."
