Ch.5: Vision's of a Future Not Wanted
I shuffled my feet across the hard wood floor. Almost 4 hours of me getting my ass kicked by Victor in Mortal Combat sucks! He totally cheated he knows Scorpion is better than Sub-Zero! But he still kicked my ass, damn fatalities! But at the moment I was to tired to attack him, instead I lie down in my bed and saw a sandwich on a plate with Ms. Brumfield's signature on the plate. She was always nice to me.
I ate the sandwich quickly and slurped down the glass of milk. I almost passed out until I looked to my side and saw my Razor flip phone I had gotten for Christmas from the home for a sort of graduation gift. I opened it up and dialed up Raven's number. There were two rings and a sound clicked.
I was nervous as hell, sweat on my brow and my stomach turning knots. I hated the suspense!
"Hello?" said a soft monotone voice.
'Thank you Jesus it isn't her mom or dad!' I yelled at my mind.
"Hey Rae, it's me Gar, what's up!" I said with a cheery smile.
"Garfield it is about time you called me you know it's almost 8:00 right?"
"Ya sorry for calling a little late I had some Mortal Combat problems, you see my controller was messing up and,"
"Victor kicked you ass didn't he."
"Ya."
There was a small giggle from the other side and I shared a little laugh myself.
"So how's you chest?"
"Besides manly and handsome its fine, probably just a fracture I will be there tomorrow."
She laughed again and I felt heat in my cheeks, she had an adorable laugh that made your heart melt in its tone.
"Great, Blood's class was actually pretty entertaining; he doesn't seem to fond of Victor and the same goes for him to. But nothing big either. Tomorrow you meat your remaining two teachers and one of your electives to probably your second choice."
"Great that would be Drama, when will be our first elective?"
"Only on Friday's weird huh? You picked guitar Victor told me, for something like that it would be a Friday. And don't forget baseball practice is tomorrow afternoon."
"Do you know my entire class schedule? Let me guess another stalker girl I will have to get another restraining order on. That would make you my 5th one this year! God it's so hard being beautiful like me."
I heard a loud chuckled and then a sympathetic sigh.
"You're really a funny person you know Gar."
"I'm not joking!" I yelled with a laugh.
Before I said anything else, I heard a giggle and a sigh from across the hall, coming from Victor's room.
"Be quiet I am going to check something out just listen." I whispered as I tip toed across the hallway to his doorway I cracked the door slightly and saw a horrible sight.
Victor was in his white boxers with blue circuit's outlines on it. He was taking a picture and sending it to some buddy. I focused my eyes and saw the name of the receiver, Bumble Bee.
"I wish you could see this, in fact you will."
As I clicked a button on my phone it took a silent picture of my big black brother and gave a silent giggle. I heard Raven laugh and giggle at the sight of the picture. I focused in on what he was saying.
"Oh Bee, you're so perverted. So I will see you tomorrow then ya? Great maybe we can see each other in the bathroom like this after noon huh? Oh don't worry no one knows and no one is listening I am being as quiet as I can be, which isn't much!"
I held back my laughter and made sure Raven was able to hear him. I was able to hear her laughter from away so I backed out and ran back to my room were I jumped onto my bed and laughed my ass off!
"Oh my god, you're house seems so interesting. Maybe I could spend some time there."
I gulped and felt a lump in my throat and some where lower as well. I giggled and told her goodnight.
"I got to go Rae, I see you tomorrow then?"
"Ya goodnight green bean."
"Hey keep that quiet!"
"I will don't worry, good night my lovely."
I stopped before I could say anything and I think she did to. I felt the lump in my throat become larger and the heat in my cheeks were burning now. My stomach wrenched itself into thousands of knots and I heard her phone click shut. I sighed ad shut my phone down to.
"I love my life!" I sighed as I sat my head on the pillow and folded my arms over my chest and fall into a nights sleep.
I felt light headed and I watched the darkness swirl around my body. Then as I thought it would be a normal dream something happened. Two figures floated like they were asleep in front of me. There was a flash and the two figures turned out to be Raven and Terra. They lay in front of me and there eyes snapped open looking at me.
"Hello Garfield." they said in unisons.
I watched them look at me and a dark chuckle came from the darkness. It was becoming louder and then an echoing icy voice yelled in my ears.
"You can only have one little Beast Boy. I know your secret and I plan on showing everyone. I…will…make…you…suffer!"
The voice seemed so familiar and then the shadow of Slade came walking in front of the two girls. He had a jagged knife in his hand. He pushed Terra into his darkness and walked up to me. He put the knife to my throat and smiled.
"Soon enough I will end your life you freak." He said softly in front of me.
He turned around and began to leave but on his way out he tossed the knife at Raven and she shattered into pieces and rain around me. Anger filled my body and then my body felt empty, my heart hurt and everything seemed to slow down.
I picked up a shattered piece of Raven and dragged its blade across my wrist and blood did not fall from my wound, but deep dark black ooze! It began to form around my body and I was as well swallowed into the darkness! I didn't know how long I had been falling in the darkness but I slammed hard on another black floor.
I looked around and saw the pieces of Raven around still broken but as I looked at them blood like water flowed from each piece and made a puddle in the middle of the glass circle. The blood rose from the ground and began to take shape. It took the shape of Raven and her skin was almost invisible, her eyes were empty and her face seemed wet from crying.
On her wrists were large cuts that dragged down to her elbow. She raised her arms and I saw blood drop from the wounds. She came closer to me with an empty smile on her face.
"Garfield, come to me my lovely, let us be together forever." It said in an almost whisper voice but the echoes made it clearer.
I felt everything stop and I looked down at my own hands and saw the trail of blood leading to a deep wound. I screamed and jumped out of my bed. Sweat drying on my face and my lungs catching up with my moving body.
I got to my feet and looked at the clock. It was time for another day of school. But this time I feel it will be much different.
