Skipping across the long green grass, my eyes were set on the plain white mailbox across the street.
Smiling as I thought about my mom saying I could get the mail, finally getting out of the house.
My hyperactive mind got excited over the smallest things.
Even though I was a teenager, I still got excited over some things.
It was hard telling people why I had to meet at different times for parties. You see I have a medical condition in which I create too much blood.
So each month I have to go to the hospital to have drop blood vials off.
When I reached the mailbox I opened the small pale box.
Inside there was a hand full of letters.
Slowly pulling them out and placing in a basket.
When I Looked in the basket there was one with my name written on the top.
Ripping the top opened the letter stated it was from the hospital, my eyes grew wide.
A car came speeding down the street.
I turned and was met with the car.
Everything fell into a black hole, my vision disappeared and my hearing was fading.
The last thing I heard was my name but in the form as a whisper.
~Hospital~
I woke up in the hospital, my mother crying in the chair next to me.
"This is all your fault, your father was driving home from work and you killed him," She screamed but it came out as a whisper.
'That's what I get after I get after an accident?' I thought.
Then she yelled or rather whispered "You're going to the orphanage in the next town over, Mystic falls."
I kind of knew this would happen since the town was the only one with an orphanage in a 30 mile radius.
"So, I took the liberty of packing most of your stuff and it's all ready over there, all I have to do is sign the release forms and then we can leave," My mother said to me.
She walked out of the room and left there.
Silently crying I changed my clothes and brushed my hair making my black hair cover my face like a curtain.
We drove in an awkward silence for at least 30 minutes.
Soon we ascended on the big metal gates of the orphanage.
I realized we were on the out skirts of the small town.
I heard many rumors of this town, the vampires, witches and werewolves that inhabited it.
My mom brought me out of my thoughts when she introduced me to a fair middle-aged woman.
"This is Mrs. Darren she is in charge, please be nice and I'll send money every two months till you get a job." My mother spoke and she left without another word.
"Welcome Dawn I'll show you to your room so you can unpack," Mrs. Darren spoke.
"Will, I need your assistance please," Mrs. Darren's voice called out.
Suddenly a tall boy came running from around the corner.
"Sure, which floor she staying on?" Will asked picking up my bags with ease.
We walked up many floors until we stood in front of a plain white door.
Inside I was greeted with plain walls and a small bed plus a dresser.
Will dropped my bags and left without a word.
'That's weird' I thought as I unpacked the few clothes I owned.
Finishing up I opened the duffle bag that contained my medicine I needed to take.
There were 100 needles and containers so I could drop them off at the hospital.
I took one needle plus container and went to the bathroom.
I sat near the sink and wrapped the rubber band around my arm.
Inserting the needle I felt the coolness of the tip.
Slowly filling the container I put it in the mini fridge that was sent with me.
I fell asleep on the bed not bothering to change.
In the dream—
I was standing alone I the woods, trees surrounded me like a crowd of densely packed people.
In the darkness I could see black soulless menacing eyes and white fangs.
' I will see you soon dear,' I heard.
Then everything vanished and I fell deeper into sleep.
