~The New Grim Reaper~
I sat on my bed and looked at my white walls. I hugged myself and my eyes were wide. I looked at the ground and teared up. I shuck my head and buried my head into my knees. I whimpered and cried into my knee caps without a sign of stopping. I rocked back and forth until my cell phone rang in my school bag. I took it and looked at the caller. It was Amy. I waited until it stopped and saw that I had a voice mail. I sniffled and listened to it. I waited and looked around my room.
My bed was white with cream sheets. My walls had a few posters here and there. My floor was covered in a blue rug and my desk near my window held my computer. I waited as the weird voice in my phone stopped speaking and then I heard the voice mail.
"Oh my god! Oh my god, Daniel is dead! Oh my god! I was walking home and I turned for a second and he was on the ground! Call me back! Narcin is worried about you! I told him I saw you near Daniel and he got scared! Call him then call me! A-S-A-P! Hurry! Oh please be okay!"
My heart sank and I quickly dialed Narcin's, my boyfriend's, cell number. I hugged my knees and waited. Then he shouted, "Oh thank god! Thank god! You're okay! Where are you!"
I said in a faint whisper, "I'm home." He said in a very nervous voice, "I'll be there in ten minutes! Don't go anywhere!" he hung up and I then started to dial Amy's phone number. I waited but I got her voice mail instead. I sighed and said, "Hey, Amy. Yeah, I'm okay. Call me when you get this. Bye."
I hung up and placed the phone on my bed. I placed my head into my knees and waited for Narcin. I bet Sonic was going to tag along with him too but I didn't care. What I did care about was what happened to that raccoon, Daniel. I cried into my knees again and didn't stop.
I heard someone run into my room and place me into a tight embrace. I began to shake again. I closed my eyes tight and nuzzled against the soft yet muscular person I knew. I felt them rub my back but it did nothing. My shakes continued and I bet he thought it was because I was scared.
"It's going to be okay, baby. Relax." Narcin said. I heard a sigh and knew it was Sonic standing by my door. I didn't look at him or Narcin. I took in a deep breath and pulled away from him. I stared at him and shuck my head. He smiled and brushed my quills a bit. I my lower lip and buried my head against his chest again.
"Any ideas on what happened." Sonic was directing that one to me. I was about to say something when, "Hey. She's scared, okay? Leave her alone for a bit." Narcin said as he pulled me onto his lap. I looked at him straight in the eye and he did the same to me. He smiled and I gave him a small smile in return.
After a few hours of staying still and speaking from time to time. Sonic had to go. I told Narcin that he could leave but he said no. I crawled into my bed and buried my face into the pillow. I felt him rub my back slowly. Probably trying to relax me. I shuck again and placed my hands under my pillow.
"You okay?" I heard him ask. I shuck my head and tears fell again. He laid beside me and brought me into a hug. I closed my eyes and even though it was only four in the afternoon, I fell asleep in his arms.
"Please! I don't want this! I can't bare this! Take this curse back!" Red eyes looked at me and an evil grin came onto his muzzle. I shuck with fear and stared at him.
"You are doomed to this curse until you retrieve two thousand souls. Bring me these souls and I'll set you free." he said in a dark voice that I only thought the devil could possibly own. I shuck my head and fell to my knees. I saw his shadow lift up a large blade like object then swung it my way. I screamed and then....
"Huh!" I gasped as I jumped and sat up in bed. I shuck without control and whimpered. I placed my face into my palms and felt tow strong arms wrap around me. I ignored them and just cried. I heard Narcin say, "What's wrong? Bad dream? It wasn't real." he said trying to comfort me.
I looked out my window and say that it was night fall. I looked at the clock that hung above my bed and saw that it was now nine. I took in a deep breath and laid down. I placed my face near his and stared at him until my eye lids started to get heavy.
"Go to sleep. I'm here." he said as he brushed a few quills from my face. I frowned and knew that if I fell asleep that dream or flash back would come back. I tried to fight the sleep with useless conversation.
"No, I'm not tired. You really don't have to stay here, Narcin." Narcin chuckled and shrugged. I knew the answer to that non question. I rolled my eyes and sighed. I did my best to fight the sleep. But it was too much. And I was too tired.
"Go on. Back to sleep. You must be tired." he laughed. I sighed and said, "And you're not?" He shrugged and said that he'd only sleep if I did. I frowned and fell asleep. I only did it so that he would. After a few hours I woke up again and saw that he was asleep but still had his arms around me.
I stared at him and played with his quills. Then I began to shake again. He must've felt it if he pulled me closer to his chest. I whimpered and placed my hands under my pillow again. I stared at his sleeping form and then all of a sudden I saw him staring at me in shock and horror. I shuck my head and saw that it was just a sudden flash of image.
Narcin was asleep right beside me. I teared up and knew that he would find out about me soon. But when I'm not sure. I hope not too soon and not too late. I bowed my head and he placed his chin on my head. I held him as tight as I could and fell asleep.
