Untitled Chapter.1
´´Where am i?´´ i thought to myself, i found myself in a forest, well, more like a haunted forest, I can hear weird sounds, like step, whispers and… screams? I walked through this forest looking carefully at every corner to see if I saw someone or an animal, no sight of life, literally, I don't see any animals, only tall trees, bushes, and hear how the air makes the tree´s leafs move. But finally I heard someone, as I was walking I barely heard how someone was trying to match his or her steps with mine. I tried to speed up so the steps with the person behind me would not be able to match mine´s. No use. ´´It´´ managed to match mine, I started to get scared, I wanted to stop but that would mean I'll meet the weirdo who is following me.
´´Wake up´´
I finally decided to stop and face my fears by seeing the person who was behind me. So with that said I stopped, so did the person behind me. I started to shake, why would ´´it´´ be following me? What did ´´it´´ see in me that I don't manage to see in myself? I'm not like the other girls who go out and have a preppy life, im a gamer girl, and anime lover, a….. Weirdo?
´´Wake up´´
I tried to look back but my conscience told me not to, but what scared me the most was the shadow of ´´it´´ I managed to see it in the corner of my eye. A tall figure, it had a humane figure, however the thing that was paranormal was his abnormally height. He was really skinny and bald, which made me chuckle a bit.
´´Wake up´´
I got myself together and tried to look back, I made my hand a fist in case ´´it´´ was armed. I closed my eyes, gave a sight and turned around. Even with eyes closed I could feel the shadow of ´´it´´.
´´Wake up or you´ll be late!´´
I stood there… was ´´it´´ waiting for me to open my eyes to attack? I felt something brush against my cheek. It was warm, yet cold, it felt like… Well that's all, I couldn't fully describe how it felt. This feeling made me feel somehow safe to open my eyes… so I did.
´´Scarlett, wake up or you´ll be late for school!´´
´´Wha- huh?´´ I woke up, I felt how my body did too, and saw my dad´s angry face.
´´Foods ready so get movin´!´´ Dad said as he closed the door and left. I felt weird, yet normal, I couldn´t see ´´it´s´´ face. All I saw was ´´it´´ in a business suit, he was way too tall so he was leaning, but somehow I didn´t care. What I really looked forward to was to see ´´it's´´ face, all I saw was my dad's face when I woke up. But I felt relieved since it was just a dream, and that ´´it´´ was not real.
Or at least that's what I thought…
I got up and went for my school uniform; I slid up the black skirt to my waist. I put on my white collar shirt and buttoned it, then took the red cardigan a put it on now all I need is my gray ribbon.
I noticed it on top of my white cell phone, but the thing that weirded me out was that my cell phone was open, and it seemed like someone typed something in it. So I decided to check it.
´´9:20 Monday August 13 2012
A serial killer is on the loss and claimed to be seen near my new school.´´
I thought to myself ´´what the heck? ´´ I must´ve write it while I was half asleep or maybe it's one of Ethan's pranks. I didn't really care and started brushing my long black hair, it reached till my upper waist so it's not that hard to brush, I brushed my half bang to the left and the rest to the right.
My name is Scarlett Thompson im 13 years old and on 8th grade, im pretty different from the girls nowdays. They go out wearing make up with fake tans, i stay home playing Xbox or watching anime, some do drugs or even have sex then whine about it, i stay home and for some reason i have been asked to be someone's girlfriend a couple of times but I never agree to, knowing myself I wouldn't be a good girlfriend since I play videogames and watch anime…Whatever, I'm not sexy, not perfect, people had told me that i'm a really good friend and that I'm cute, so I believe easily and apply it to myself trying to raise my self-esteem, but that not really the point, I need to get going I got distracted again.
I walked to the stairs and checked my phone again.
´´9:20 Monday August 13 2012
A serial killer is on the loss and claimed to been seen near my new school.´´
´´Ha-ha serial killer huh?´´ I laughed.
´´Serial killer, where did you hear that?´´ My dad noticed.
´´Oh, in my phone it says this: ´´A serial killer is on the loss and claimed to be seen near my school´´ I slightly laughed once again.
´´Oh, must´ve been your brother Ethan.´´
´´What did I do?´´ Ethan said, confused.
I shoved my cell phone showing the message on his face. But he just gave me a confused face.
´´You know I didn't do this, right?´´
´´Of course you did, you were making fun of me yesterday so you did this!´´
´´Haha of course not, I was in my room all night, besides I wouldn't do such a thing´´
´´So it wasn't you?´´ I said with a confused face.
´´No, I helped him with some homework yesterday, he was in his room all night´´ said dad with a serious face. I was really confused, all I could think was who typed this in my cell phone? Maybe myself, I maybe typed it half asleep.
´´Hurry up and eat up you´ll be late!´´ Dad slipped the plate with fried eggs and bacon on it. I ate up and hurried up to get my backpack and left.
