The Sorrows from Within
" I don't mind if that's what making you sleep there, I would rather you on the bed and me on the floor, but its your choice." Van gave her a little bit of space, he got the hint not to close her into a space earlier.
" No I just can't sleep on a big bed like that." Hope stated, knowing that she had a deep secret that only the spirits knew.
" All right, but we should get some rest we might have a long day tomorrow." Van suggested in a monotone voice.
Hope fell asleep fast that night, considering she was thinking and all the things she had gone through today. Van's sleep didn't come on so easily...
Chapter 14: More dreams...
As Hope slept dreamlessly in her self made cot, but Van tossed and turned until the spirit came once again.
" Ah, I see you decided to join me lord Van." Yuri said sarcastically.
"Yes, but I have something to ask you about your daughter." Van spoke out towards the small so consistent light floating towards him.
" All right, what do you wish to know?" Yuri was intrigued on why Van was so interested in her daughter.
" I want to know why she shies away when ever some one gets close to her?" Van remembered her actions earlier that day.
" I would have thought you would have figured that out on your own, but I guess not. Well the reason she does that is because every one that has ever gotten close to her has been taken away or has left her behind. Also now she has even more stress added onto her already heavy load, so please take it easy on her." Yuri didn't think she should tell him about the new power, he might think she was a danger in his country and kick her out, but also she thought it was her power to tell about.
" I see, but she seems afraid to let any one touch her, even if it was a friendly gesture." Van brought up.
" I know she doesn't like to let any one touch her, she's been through some tough times and she has adapted to the world she grew up with, and now she hasn't been able to change. On the other hand she has not let any one touch her in a while, her skin is as hot as the springs in the south and her eyes hold the deepest, darkest, and most deadly secrets that any one could ever hold within themselves." Yuri seemed to open a whole new door to the situation, but then also closed the door they came from.
" Ok, I can understand that I guess" Van thought, even though it confused him a little.
There was an outstanding silence between the spirit and the young king. But the thoughts were racing like speeding bullets through the midnight air.
" So are you ready to see the rest of Hope's past?" Yuri asked.
" Sure, I would like to see why she's so distant with every one. " Van was just siting there thinking that he wanted to know more about this girl but he also wanted to know why she knew Hitomi, and how she ended up meeting her.
" All right, well you know about her brother now, and I think that's where we left off from." Yuri said waving her hand over the blackness of the space.
" I think so too, so that's where we should start since its where we can remember last." Van suggested.
" Ok, that's where we shall begin our journey." She said while the colors fused together to create a whirl of colorful beings and to shape a picture only to be found in a child's mind.
The colors started to take forms of people and of other living things. Van sat and watched as everything started to take on the role of motion and the every day things in life.
Van saw a glimpse of silver lining race around the corner, but he wasn't sure, so he followed the shining color. As soon as the shiny silver wave of hair stopped he knew who it was, it was Hope. He seen she was walking towards a building and he looked around and noticed that the spirit of her mother was no where to be seen. So Van pursued her as she walked around corners as if making it hard to trail her steps. Van also noticed as well as all the other visions or signs he has been in every one else couldn't see him, and the odd time the person your watching can see you. He watched as Hope picked up her heavy bag and put it on the desk in the back corner and seen her shrink in the desk with her dark clothing.
The teacher started to talk and Hope didn't really seem to be paying much attention. She seemed more preoccupied with the wind that pushed against the window. As the class dragged on the wind grew stronger and hope lost a little more concentration in the teacher. Before the class ended Van walked up beside Hope and watched her from close up and noticed something different with her expression than before. She looked as if she had seen the most horrible thing right at that moment. Van traced her eye direction and didn't doubt it come from the window, but what Van seen disturbed him also. He seen blood, black blood slowly oozing down the window. Van knew this must be a sign and a signal to Hope that something is going to happen and with the blood, he took it as death...
Hope heard the bell ring and started to pack up her stuff, trying to avoid making eye contact with every one, she kept her head down and watched her shoes hit different tiles on the floor.
Hope walked with speed in her step, and panic in her heart, and she tried not to seem to nervous but it wasn't working. Every one that pasted her looked at her as if she was the walking dead. Van felt bad for her, since she was having a bad day the world seem to shut her out.
She stopped at a locker but it didn't look as if she had any intention of opening it. It looked as if she was waiting there for some one or something. Just as Van thought this his question was answered, a girl with pitch black hair walked up and seen the look on her friends face.
" Hope, what's wrong?" Alex asked.
" I seen the blood again like all the there times." Hope said trying to tell her friend without bursting into tears, trying to be strong.
" The vision you got before your dad died and your brother?" Alex wondered, knowing it was the same.
" Yes," Hope stared at the floor, ready to let the emotions take over her body.
" Well lets get you home, I'm sure everything going to be all right." Alex assured her friend.
" All right." Hope walked along side her dark haired friend.
The two walked home, Hope looked rather worried, but her friend did all she could to keep her mind off the scene in class.
As they were walking Hope felt like a large weight was put on top of her and was crushing down until her legs couldn't hold her up any longer. She started to breathe heavily and started to slow down her pace.
" Are you all right, you don't look so hot?" Alex slowed down and touched her shoulder.
" No, something's wrong, but I don't know what." Just as Hope said that, it started to rain, but it was coming down hard.
" For June 15th the rain is coming down hard." Alex commented as her and Hope ran for cover.
They found a small spot underneath a playground climber that some what represented a circus tent.
" So what all did you get for your 12th birthday?" Alex asked, wanting to get Hope's mind off of everything.
Van watched the worried look on Hopes face get worse and worse and he had a feeling some one in her life wasn't going to be there long.
While Hope and Alex waited for the rain to let up Hope's cell phone rang. The number showed it was hope's mother.
" Hey mom, what's up?" Hope asked, now knowing her mom was all right for the moment.
" Hey honey, I just wanted to tell you some thing," Yuri's voice was heard from the other line.
" Ok, what is it mom?" Hope was slightly disturbed by the tone of her voice.
" I Just wanted to tell you that I don't want you to come home," Yuri started to cry.
" Why mom, why wouldn't you want me to come home?" Hope now knew something wasn't right and she wanted to know what it was.
" What's wrong Hope?" Alex asked once again.
" Sweety, I love you with all my heart, I know Im the only family you have left but i might have to leave you, and I would do anything to protect you, so please don't come home go to Alex's house or something. Before Hope could protest she heard a odd voice on the other end of the line. Hope knew that the voice wasn't some one at there house so she decided to stay quiet. The man talked to her mother, but something rubbed her the wrong way about his voice and then it hit her, the man that shot her dad..........
She sat there and listened to the mad order her mother around, but before anything else would happen she heard a ear piercing scream and the line went dead.
Hope stood there motionless, weighted down by fear. Her mind was flying every where and she didn't know what to do. She stood there not thinking as the world stopped in front of her eyes. As her mind started to function she dropped her cell phone, it shattered into more than 6 pieces. Alex didn't know what was happening she hasn't seen Hope act like this for a long time and now she didn't know what to do.
Before Alex could do anything Hope started out in a sprint and ran towards her house, by then Hope had let a river of salty tears flow down her face.
Hope had finally reached her house but was scared to enter, afraid of what she might find. She took a moment to breath and to reduce her shaking to a minimum. Hope raised her small hand to the door knob, finding it hard to grasp since her hand grew clammy with fear. She turned the knob and opened the door. When she walked passed the door the sent of the blood hit her nose. Her heart began to race and her thoughts invaded her concentration. Hope searched the house and found her mother, tears sprung to her eyes as she laid her eyes on her mothers bleeding body...
