Chapter: eight

"Torn"

Rocks nicked the side of the black jeep and brown dust filled the air. Kaia felt a cold chill and a warm hand was placed on her head. "I think she's awake Rosette." A boy spoke with a rough cuteness in his voice, "Try not to wreak the jeep." He had a scared look on his face. Rosette turned to look at him then nimbly turned away trying not to yell. "I'd like to see you drive better on this road." She said with a frown, "Where did you find that girl anyway Chrono?" Chrono turned to look at Kaia then his glance turned back towards Rosette. "I found her in the park, she was talking to herself and shivering." He answered with a confused look on his face.

A low moan caught his attention, Kaia turned over on her side. One of her eyes opened and the other followed, only to find a pair of orange eyes staring back at her. "Ahhh!" She screamed shoving him away. She moved her leg over a metal hook and her pants caught. "Damnit!" She gasped pulling her leg away, a loud zipping sound was heard and her pant leg ripped. Rosette stopped the jeep, sending them all flying towards the front; she stared at the two wide-eyed bodies. "What is it now Chrono?" She asked more surprised than they were. Her blonde hair flung in her face, but she shoved it away quickly. Kaia bent down and yanked the rest of her ripped jeans off. She stopped and stared at the people who found her, clutching the ripped jean leg. Her mouth quivered and she asked them stuttering, "W-where am I?"

Kirsten slid behind a tree, hands over her head. OMG! What's happening! A loud crunching was heard and a soft raspy breath echoed in Kirsten's ears. "Where are you, my dear?" A voice called to her evilly, "I need to eat!" Kirsten's breath steadily rose. I'll just be quiet and he won't find me. The demon sniffed the air and his eyes lowered. "I know you're here pretty." He smirked, "Now come out come out wherever you are." Kirsten felt hot tears wield up in her eyes. No! I must hold them back! She thought shaking her head, covering her ears with her hands. The demon stepped closer to where Kirsten was hiding, and she froze unable to move. She squeezed her eyes shut, waiting. The demon scratched his long nails against the torn tree.

"There you are my dear." He said laughing, his long purple tail shaking. Kirsten's blood ran cold, she didn't know what to do next except run. She sprinted through the forest trying to dodge the sharp tree limbs, but to no avail. She heard the demon's hot breath down her neck. "HELP ME!" She screamed tripping on a rock; it sent her tumbling down a steep hill. Thorns and tree branches hit her on her way down, and she felt her tears falling onto the dusty dirt ground. She'd lost the demon, but her body stung all over.

She sat in the dirt head facing the ongoing clouds. Hot tears sprung from her eyes, hitting the ground. Where am I? "Is anyone there?" She asked screaming into the blue sky, bawling. "I need help!" She yelled again, all that replied was the wind against the trees' leaves. Her body felt limp and her vision blurred. N-no I can't fall asleep, I need to find some—one to hel-" Her thought silenced and she slowly fell into a silent sleep.
