Chapter 1
Authors Note:
What I am about to write, was originally written as a screenplay, it had nothing to do with fanfiction. But I thought I'd try it out as a fanfiction. Tell me what you think please, reviews are greatly appreciated.
Flashbacks are written in Italics.
Enjoy,

A small girl of 12 sits huddled up with her knees to chest, in what appears to be a deserted car park, her sandy blonde hair reaches the top of her shoulders in a messy braid.
She is panting as she watches the last remnants of the sun go down through a barred opening.
"Run, Run" a woman screams followed by what sounds very much like two gunshots and a thud as a body hits the ground.
Small girl runs around a bedroom getting small things she can fit into a bag, clothes and a jar of money, not much maybe about $20 in total.
She's running down the street, through a deserted park, finally she starts to slow down, all of a sudden she stops.
She puts her hands to her knees and starts to cough violently.
She slightly lifts her head to look around at her surroundings and finally falls to her hands and knees still coughing violently.
I woke suddenly, in a cold sweat, as the girl had fallen to her knees, I'd been having this dream for sometime now, I think maybe for about a month now, I never get to see the girls face.
I ran my hand subconsciously through my hair thinking hard, there must have been a reason for the dreams, and I just didn't know the reason yet. I lay back down after the shivers had stopped running through my body still thinking about the dream. "I'll tell the guys about it tomorrow," I thought to myself silently, "see if they know anymore about it then I do".
I don't remember falling back asleep after the dream, but I guess I must have because I woke up to the sun shinning brightly on my face, and my younger sister jumping on my bed trying to wake me up.
"Ok, I'm up Jasmine," I mumbled into the pillow, closing my eyes thinking about going back to bed again once she went down stairs to the kitchen.
"You said that about half an hour ago, besides Gordie and Teddy are here and they want to see you," she said still bouncing on my bed, "They're just outside your room, I'll tell them to come in ok?"
"Yeah ok, sure thing," I said still only half conscious and not actually taking in anything she said, I just wanted to go back to sleep, and that wasn't possible with a 7year old bouncing on your bed.
I closed my eyes again trying to sleep once more when I hear Teddy's voice, "Jesus Dracun, you sure don't look pretty first thing in the morning"
"Shit Teddy what are you doing in my room?" I said finally registering what my sister had said and the fact that I was only wearing an old top of my dads, "And you to Gordie, what the hell are you guys doing here?"
"Well you see since your still asleep at like 11am you missed out on the fun, we're gonna go see a dead body, we're telling our folks we got a tent in Vern's back field, and we're gonna go find Ray Brower's body. You coming or what? We're leaving at 12 noon," once again this was Teddy talking, his voice was irritating first thing in the morning.
I rubbed my face hard with the palm of my hands to wake myself up, "Yeah sure I'll come, just let me pack ok? Can you go let mum know what's happening? I'll be down in about 10minutes. Thanks Gordie, thanks Teddy". I grabbed my clothes, a pair of loose jeans with a hole in the knee, a tight singlet that I wore underneath an old top of my older brothers and I got a jacket in case it got cold at night. I found my sleeping bag and canteen and walked down the stairs now more awake but not completely still.
I went into the kitchen and got an apple for breakfast and a bottle of root beer for the walk to the edge of town.
"Bye mum, see you in a couple of days, bye Jasmine love you guys," with that we set off to meet the guys.
