Chapter 4: Confused
I followed Chris through the forest as fast as I could. Chris was hard to follow because he was so dang fast. Where did he get so much endurance? I know that he isn't in track.
Staring ahead I began searching for Vanessa but the only thing I saw was nonfamiliar trees of all kind. This was all getting frustrating and that was when something popped in my mind. Quickly I came to an abrupt stop and Chris seemed to notice too and had stopped also.
"What's up?" he asked with little sympathy. At first I didn't want to answer him but the look that he gave me sent chills. It was a little too much to bear.
"It's nothing. Don't worry about it" I responded. The thing that had made me stop had been the sound of footsteps. They were near and fear began to build.
We began to walk again and the feeling of watching me arose also within the mix of fear. I didn't want to admit it at the time.
"It was my fault…" these words had startled Chris for a moment. As quickly as it showed the quicker his face became unemotional.
"For taking her here right" Now was the time for me to show shock. How did he know this. Oh wait, he's her brother. Of course. I nodded in his response.
Out of nowhere came Dimitri, a guy at our school that was in three of both Vanessa's and I classes. He was carrying something in his arms and at first I couldn't tell what it was. Until he ten meters from us.
Right there in plain sight was Vanessa unconscious. Dimitri's eyes were on her and I could see some kind of passion in them. He has got to have feelings for her.
Chris's face lit up in anger at what Dimitri had done. His hands were in big fists and he was gritting his teeth.
"What the hell did you do to my sister?" yelled Chris with anger dripping from his voice. Dimitri's face changed from passion into unemotional and gave her over to Chris.
"I erased her memory of tonight. It will be like nothing had ever happened." Ok this is weird; why would he want to do something like that. Though what I said was incredibly stupid.
"What is this about?" I asked. In response to this Dimitri glanced at and walked over to me. We were about twelve inches apart. He started to speak in as in command.
"You will not remember what happened tonight." After he said this, my body started to become numb and I fell into a half trance sort of state. I repeated the same exact words to him as I stared into his eyes.
"You were doing homework when you all of a sudden fell asleep." Again I repeated the same words and quickly I passed out falling into Chris's arms.
