She Wanted Her Life To Be Different But Is What Happens Next Going To Be Too Much?


Have you ever really wanted something but when you got it you wish that you never had it, well that's the situation I was is but I'm getting ahead of myself I need to start at the beginning, the VERY BEGINNING


It was late afternoon despite the fact it was spring it was still kind of cool outside I was kicking a soccer ball across my yard waiting on my mom "Nona" my mom called from the car I ran over and climbed into the small van my dad and baby sister were already in we were all going to my aunts for Christmas I had never met my aunt so it was an awesome idea according to me, as the car started to roll down the drive way I watched the small house fade out of sight if I had known ide never see that house again I probably would have never left I probably would have clung to it a little harder than I did but I was only six I couldn't have known what was to happen next. We'd been driving all day and when we had stopped at a motel for the night I fell asleep instantly "Nona, Nona Hurry Wake Up" the rushed voice of my mother fear filled her voice my eyes shot open I was on my bed in the motel "Quiet…" she ordered "Hurry hide and be silent" she shoved my baby sister into my arms and pushed us into a dark closet and just as she closed the door I heard a crash and a scream I looked out a key hole that provided the only light two men were standing at the door with guns in their hands In front of them my parents laid dead NO! I yelled but as soon as I did the two men opened the door then next few moments I can't remember completely but there was a loud crash a scream crying something warm on my arms and a sharp pain in my head then blackness.


The next thing I remember was waking up in a small black room with only a lamp and a girl standing over me "Hello" she whispered her voice calmed me down a bit "my name is Jessica what's yours" I tried to thing but threw a searing head ach and a loud ringing in my ear I couldn't find anything

"I-I don't know" Jessica looked at my sympathetically

"Do you remember what happened" she asked I didn't want to I wanted it to be a bad dream but It wasn't, I slowly nodded my head the girl gave another sympathetic look "How about before that" I tried to remember the first years of my life but nothing came

"n-no" I stuttered I had no name no past I couldn't stop It tears started to roll off my face

"It's ok I'm here for you just stay with me" I looked at this girl she was no older than ten but she was all I had at the moment

"O…k" my answer was slow and tears stopped falling as I looked at her face light up

"Now first things first what to call you" I thought for a moment but only one word would come to mind

"Nightmare" I said she looked up at confused

"What"

"Nightmare" I repeated

"Why would you want to be called that" I looked at her harshly

"Just humor me" she nodded and preceded to hand me roll of bread

I stayed with her for four years with still no memories of my past and I kept the name I had thought of on my first day she was nice and taught me how to steel and pick pockets I learned to pick locks and to hide also how to trick anybody I could make anybody believe anything and could tell when anybody was lying I was an expert at all kinds of street life and being without memory help cause I had room to learn and master things and I also learned of a power I had to create, manipulate and turn into shadows but when I turned ten she died of a sickness leaving me on my own again

"No" I cried Jessica's body laid in front of me "no, no, no" my voice mumbled through the tears she was all I knew she was the only friend I had now I had nobody I whipped my eyes and looked around me I couldn't stay in our little home even if it was only a space under an abandoned warehouse it's all I had ever known I looked at the body one more time and ran out into the night I was alone once more fury raged in me I heard a police car coming I quickly turned into a shadow and hid by a tree see it's not that I had done anything but that I just didn't want to be seen I had learned to live at night and that's what I did for the sun light gave me head-ace's and make me dizzy and confused I was sensitive to all light but mainly sun light and we decided it was the effect of my powers I would always sleep during the day
