Ok, so I didn't really no what a disclaimer was. Whatever. :P From now on, I am going to mention an elephant in my disclaimer somewhere. Because elephants are just cool like that.
Disclaimer: Neither the elephants, nor I own any of these characters.
Mitchie was desperate. She saw no reason to live, although she wasn't one hundred percent sure she wanted to commit suicide. She just didn't want to be alive anymore. There was no one around who could murder her, so she decided to do it herself. She quickly went through possible methods. Gun? No, there weren't guns around here. Knife? No, the kitchen staff might get a bit suspicious if she asked for a knife. What did that leave? The lake. Part of Mitchie wanted to go back to her mom and her close friend, but the other part wanted to leave everything behind forever. Unfortunately, the second part won the battle. The lake called Mitchie in; it was hypnotizing. The moon shone on it causing the lake to glitter. Mitchie took off her boots, pants, and finally her shirt. She was down to her underwear and bra now. Mitchie walked solemnly over to the lake's edge. She wondered if anyone would miss her. She knew in her heart they would, but her irrational head convinced her otherwise.
Mitchie finally took a deep breath and started walking further and further into the water. The cool water was now up to her waist. She took a deep breath and went under. She swam further until she was in the middle of the lake. Mitchie resurfaced. She then took one last breath and swam slowly to the bottom of the lake. Everything was quiet, almost dead. She swam until she found a rock sitting at the bottom. It was dark, so she wasn't completely sure it was a rock, but it felt large and rough. She held on to the rock and wrapped her legs around it. At first, everything was peaceful and calm. However, after a few minutes the small pain in her chest turned into a large pain.
What am I doing? Mitchie asked herself. I don't want to die. I am young, and there are still people who love me. What am I doing? I have to get up for air, now!
Mitchie tried to push off the rock to the surface but her foot was stuck. She pushed and pushed, but her foot would not let free. She was not sure which pain was worse—the pain in her chest or the pain coming from her smashed foot. Mitchie bent her body back down to her foot. It was almost completely black so she couldn't see or move what was holding her. All she could do was try to wiggle her foot free. Mitchie kept trying to swim for the surface. She had no breath or energy left in her. Soon, she had no life left in her either. Mitchie gave one final attempt to reach the surface, and then everything went black.
Ok, I know that was freakishly short, but I will make up for it in the next chapter, I promise. It was just because I have a longer idea and this was sort of separate from it. If that makes sense. Thanks so much for the reviews/reads, etc. That was freakishly quick! I really appreciate it. The elephants do, too.
