Chapter 2: Ebony
"That's the last time I pay for tickets in advance." A family of three, a father,mother and their daughter, left the movie theater and walked to their car.
"It wasn't so bad." The wife assured her husband. "People are just having a hard time with this new technology is all."
"I still say we buy our tickets the old fashioned way next time." The father grumbled.
"Well we girls still enjoyed the movie, right Ebony?" The mother asked her daughter.
"Yep!" Ebony chirped.
The family climbed into their car and drove off.
"I bet your really excited for your birthday tomorrow." Her father's words made Ebony grin. "Am I going to get a really big cake!?" She asked.
"We'll see." Her mother laughed. "We'll see."
The family fell silent for awhile and Ebony was starting to fall asleep.
"Did you get everything ready for tomorrow?" Her mother asked.
"Don't worry honey!" The father exclaimed. "Everything's gonna be all ri-"
The collision was over in seconds the jolt of the impact shook Ebony awake from her slumber.
"Oww!" She exclaimed to herself. "Why does my head hurt?" She rubbed the back of her head which was throbbing. She looked around and saw that she was in a very unkempt living room, laying on the couch. The smell was awful and Ebony could feel herself about to vomit.
"Where the hell am I?" She wondered. "The last thing I remember was being chased by...oh no." Ebony jumped off the couch and tried to run but her legs hurt too bad to even make it across the room. She knocked down a lamp on her way to the floor. Someone must have heard it because the next thing Ebony knew, a tall man was standing over her. Ebony looked up to see his deformed face and his sharpend teeth when he smiled at her. Ebony screamed and try to crawl away but the man picked her up and placed her on the couch.
"What do you want? Please don't eat me!" Ebony pleaded. The man got on his knees so that he was on eye level with Ebony. Then he took out a bowl of what looked like cream and rubbed some of it on her face. Ebony slapped the cream out of his hand.
"What do you think you're doing you freak!" Ebony started to wipe away the cream and noticed that the man had put it along her scars. Flustered, she quickly wiped away the cream and pouted.
"My scars don't go away." She said. "I've tried." Ebony pulled her hood over her head and curled up into a little ball. The man picked up the cream, looked at Ebony and left.
"Where am I?" Ebony thought again. "What's going to happen to me?"
