Whispers Of Hollow .
Prologue: Whispers of the wind shook the trees as it called my name . Sharp needles of pine pricked my fingers as my hands ran across the lips of the tree . I felt my eyes narrow and widen . Standing tall , the trees hushed . All silence ended for a split second before the wind screached , screaming .
Chapter 1 .
My eyes flew open as I jumped out of my bed , gasping for air . Images replayed in my mind of my dream , soon to find myself screaming . My door swung open , my mom running in to hug me . "Shhh , it's okay . Mama's here . Shhh ." Her sweet voice tendered the images , soon to stop . Blinking , I finally started to see again . Releasing her grip , she stood and glanced down at me . Eyes shut tight , I could hear her hollow foot steps walking torwards my window . I didn't want to open my eyes even though I did anyway . I took a quick glance , my eyes soon clmaping shut again . A black image caused my screaming to erupt and vibrate throughout the room . Teeth gritted , my hands shook vilently as I squeezed the sheet , wrapping it around my fist . Hot breaths skided down my neck . I shivered . Everything calmed as the sobbing of my mom broke the image . Huffs came from her as well . Her voice cracked as she whispered so silent I could barley hear her , "Why ? Why her . Why my baby girl ?" I made my way over to her . She knew I felt safer in her arms but in reality , she knew I wasn't safe anywhere but continued to protect me in her arms . Her body heat warmed my pale skin . I choked but manage to speak , "Mum , I'm scarred ." My heart snapped in two pieces when I felt tears that weren't mine trickle down my cheek . "I know dear . I know ." My eyes opened , only to see darkness . I knew my white eyes struck fear into my mom's eyes each time she saw them but this time , she didn't speak and I couldn't feel her emotion . I just knew she wasn't happy . Her tender lips pressed against my forehead . Moving way , she left my room . Settling in the rocking chair , I picked up my notebook and pencil . ' Blind , but I can still see the things I see , why ? Why are my eyes white ? I'll continue to ask till I'm answered . ' My hands released , everything dropping to the ground as he appeared again . I screamed , flying out of the chair . I gripped his chalky throat . His desperate gags strengthened my grip . Realizing he couldn't escape , he disappeared . Breathing heavy and deep , I stood still , wanting the moment to swell and low over . Knowing he was clearly gone , my heart beat slowed and my breathing calmed . I woke to my mother's feet pounding up the stairs , making her way back to my room . The creaked when it opened . I shivered a little , sitting down on my bed . She set something down next to me . My nostrils opened wide as I sniffed the lingering smell etching its way across them . I could make out bacon , eggs , and sausage . 'Yumm'' slipped into my thoughts as I spooned the eggs into my mouth . Stuffed , my mother took the plate and tucked me in . She kissed my forehead and left , leaving the door open . I listened to her down stairs but started to doze off , the last thing I herd before fidning myself asleep was the brutal words of sweet dreams Kirsten .
