Chapter 2: June 18

The cornfield smelled wonderful, Jeremy noticed this fact as he walked down the rows. "You be come'in soon now chile," a voice in the distance said. "Who are you?" Jeremy yelled, "Mother Abigail Freemantle." Suddenly the warmth of the cornfield was gone. He stood in fear as the smell transformed in to the smell of death, the corn too transformed, he was now surrounded by dead bodies. "The time is near," a voice echoed. Jeremy was now running jumping over bodies, he tripped and fell catching himself just above the rotting corpse of, Nicole. The corpse opened her eyes, no longer hazel, but red glowing, "Your time is ending," the corpse said and maggots fell out of her mouth, Jeremy started to scream.

Jeremy woke up screaming his heart was racing and he noticed rather unpleasantly that he was wet with sweat. His alarm went off, he jumped startled at the sudden appearance of music,

"Baby, can you dig your man?

He's a righteous man,

Tell me baby can you dig your man?"

"Jeremy, calm down, it was just a fucking dream" Jeremy said to himself. He then cut of the Alarm clock and went to take his morning shower.

"Nicole, what are your plans for this weekend?" Jeremy said as he sat down on Nicole's couch, "I'm not sure, Jeremy, I was wondering if it would be ok if I stayed with you until my mom and your grandma returns from the business trip, I'm worried that Aaron may try to hurt me." "Nicole, what makes you think that?" Jeremy said trying to make his voice sound calm, "He called me last night at three a.m. and said he was watching me, and that he should have killed me when he had the chance," Nicole said as she started sobbing. Jeremy walked over and wrapped his arms around her, "Come on let's go get your stuff, I know Grandma will not mind you staying the two weeks, and I'm you're your mom will not either, We'll tell them when they call." Jeremy said as he and Nicole went to pack her stuff.

They had just finished packing when a white Ford pulled into Nicole's Driveway, the door opened revealing a tall boy with prominent ears. "Where the Fuck do you think your going?" Aaron said with hate flashing in his eyes, "You're not going anywhere with that fucking queer." Aaron walked over and pushed Jeremy onto the ground. Nicole in a sudden burst of protectiveness kicked Aaron in the testicles; Aaron startled fell to his knees in obvious pain, "Come on Jeremy let's go now," Nicole said as she helped Jeremy up. They grabbed her stuff and ran to the car, as they drove off Aaron yelled, Run You Fucking Bitch, Run with your queer ass boyfriend, I'll kick his ass right after I kick yours.

One of the Neighbors noticed the commotion and called the police, they arrived to find an empty house with tire marks where Aaron spun a tire as he left.
