Why

Prologue

A primal scream of rage and agony forced me to my knees. I pounded my fists into the concrete not feeling the aching tremble that traveled up my arms. I clenched my eyes shut trying to block the on flow of tears. I only help them roll down my reddened cheeks. A loud broken sob escaped my lips. Why did the world hate me?

I could barely hear the soothing words my friends were trying to ingrain in my ruined mind. They were circled around me reminding me of vultures. I sobbed into the pavement not caring anymore. They could judge me if they wanted. I didn't care any longer. Nothing mattered. I felt a warm hand touch my shoulder. I flinched away from it. The hand came again and hauled me to my feet.

I looked to the floor where my sadness radiated from. Another broken sob left me. The dark angry blood was spreading. Seeping through the miniscule cracks in the black top. Spreading it's story to the earth below. My eyes trailed up the blood leading to the large pool of it. The source of the blood ended at the front of a head. The usually brighter then sunlight blonde hair was wet with the red stuff. Another sob wracked through my body. Why did the world hate me?

I swayed on my feet, but the hand steadied me. I noticed the flashing blue and red lights. How long had they been here? People were rushing around me, my friends still circled around me. My head fell into my numb hands. Why did the world hate me? Why would this happen?

"Caleb…we should get him out of here." a voice of my vulture friends say.

"There isn't anything we can do to help…" another one said.

"Alright." the hand flexed on my shoulder and turned me. I would have fought…usually. I would have demanded they leave me alone. Scream at the medics to save her. Save the girl whose brain was slowly seeping into ground. I would have been angry…but I couldn't be. I would be…but not now. I couldn't…why did the world hate me?

I felt myself being put in a car. Two warm bodies sat on each side of me. Where were we going? Did it matter? Something had to be done. It couldn't just…end like that. This only happened in movies…right? Only in movies. My crying ceased and I was left staring emptily at the dash in front of me. There was always something to do….wasn't there? The car jostled a bit.

"What did they say Caleb?" a voice asked. Who was that? "Caleb?" oh it was Sarah.

"Not now…" Caleb's voice was rough with an emotion. Maybe grief…or something else. I didn't care. I stayed staring at the dash board with the blue LCD lights.

"Where are we going?" another voice said. That sounded like Kate.

"Hospital." was his answer. Okay. We were going to see a dead body. Dead…why was this happening? Why did the world hate me?

"Reid…are you okay?" I slid my gaze to the person on my left. Sarah. Her blue eyes red from crying. Then I looked back at the blue LCD lights. "I know it hurts…but…" she didn't finish her sentence. I closed my eyes and thought back. Thought back to why I was in this car now…leaving a suicide scene.

AN: review and tell me what you think. Till next time.
