Surrender
I was very tired when I made it to my house, but I didn't waste any time getting in through my gate. Once I punched in the combination, the gate opened up and I quickly ran up to the porch. I was about to yell for Rey when I noticed how dark it was through the window. I also noticed that the door was cracked open and a cold breeze was blowing out.
"Rey?" I said as I slowly pushed open the door. "Rey?"
There was no answer, but our entire house was a wreck. I looked around carefully, hoping to find my brother, but all I saw was Edge's goonies knocked out on the floor of the living room. One of them was laid out on top of the coffee table, bleeding from his head. The other one was hanging halfway out of the window and his shirt was torn.
"Rey! Are you here?" I yelled as I turned to go up the steps. There were lots of papers scattered all over the hallway when I reached the top of the steps. At the end of the hall, I saw my aunt laying on her side with her eyes clothes and blood running from her mouth. I walked towards her wondering if she was dead or alive. I bent down close to her and reached out to check her pulse when her eyes popped open.
"Got ya." She said as she grabbed my wrist and yanked me to the ground. She then got on top of me, crushing me with her weight.
"Get off of me!" I yelled.
She laughed, "Oh no sweetie, I promised Mr. Undertaker that you would be his…and he's going to get what he wants."
My eyes widened, "You bitch!"
She laughed, "You won't be saying that when he makes you his bitch…hey guys! I've got her!"
I ended up getting my hand free and punched her in the face. She rolled off of me and I quickly got up and ran for my bedroom. As soon as I got there, I locked my door and then quickly changed out of my dress and put on some jeans and a long sleeved pink top. I then put on my tennis shoes and climbed out of my window. Edge's goonies were still banging on my door as I climbed down from my house. I was about halfway down when I heard them break down my door and attempt to find me.
"Rachel! Come back here!" Vickie yelled. "He'll hurt us if he has to get you himself!"
I looked down to see how far away I was from the ground and then I let go of the side of the house. I fell into some bushes and then got up and kept running.
"Rachel! Damn it get your ass back here!" my aunt yelled from the window as I ran down the street. I kept running though, not sure of where I was going. I didn't stop running until I started feeling the effects of whatever was in that punch. My body felt real weak and exhausted, so I headed for the hospital.
"Excuse me ma'am can I help you?" a nurse asked when I walked in.
I looked at her, trying to keep my eyes open before I fell to the ground.
When I woke up, I was laying in a hospital bed with restraints on my wrist. I was also dressed in a hospital gown with a tube up my nose. I thought I was dreaming at first until the doctor walked in with Vickie behind him.
"What's going on?" I asked. "Why is she here?"
The doctor touched my arm, "Calm down Miss. Gutierrez, your aunt is here because your brother is missing."
I gasped, "He isn't missing! That bitch did something to him!"
"You see doc, she's completely delusional. Is there anything you can do?" Vickie said.
He sighed, "Well we could sedate her for now and keep her in an observation room for the night."
"I won't be here through the night…" I said. "Vickie please don't let him sedate me."
She rolled her eyes, "I'm not sure why she's acting out like this…where do I sign?"
I watched as the doctor took out the chart and showed her where to sign. He then left the room with her so he could get the medicine. I had to move fast. I started wiggling my wrist vigorously trying to free them. I got one halfway out when the lights started to flicker on and off. My heart started to pound and I kept pulling at my restraints. I ended up freeing one hand and immediately started on the other one. I then pulled the tube out of my nose and hopped out of the bed.
"Rachel…"
I froze and looked around but I didn't see anyone. I freed my other hand quickly and then got up from the bed and hid in the corner near the door. When the doctor returned, he looked around for me but didn't spot me immediately. Just when I went to sneak out of the room, the door shut and the lights began to flicker.
"W-what's going on here?" The doctor asked.
I began to panic and got up and locked myself in the bathroom. I heard the doctor banging on the door for me to open it but I wouldn't. I crouched in the corner of the tub and started balling my eyes out. Then, something in me just snapped…and I gave up.
"Undertaker! Take me! Do it!" I screamed.
It then got quiet…almost too quiet. I sat frozen in the tub waiting to see what would happen. Suddenly the door came flying open and with the doctor's body flying into the wall. I screamed and held my legs against my chest tightly. I heard someone step into the room and I looked up slowly to see who it was. I was very shocked to see Josh standing there with an evil grin on his face. He stepped towards me but I didn't move.
"Come to me Rachel."
I looked at him like he was insane but then his appearance began to change. He became taller, his hair stretched down past his shoulders turning black as it did so. His eyes turned emerald green and his muscles grew. His outfit was changing too, going from a prom suit to jet black pants and a long black trench coat. On his head, was his normal black cowboy hat. I just looked into his eyes feeling strangely drawn to him.
He walked up to the tub and reached out to me. "Don't be afraid, you've already accepted me…now all you have to do is come with me. Let me take you away from here."
I was terrified but my body was really relaxing. Slowly I rose to my feet and then gently placed my hand in his. I then stepped out of the tub and let him pull my body close to his.
He smiled and ran his hand through my hair, "I knew you'd come to me on your own…"
I looked into his eyes waiting for him to take me from this place. He cupped my head in his massive hands and then pressed his lips against mine. I felt his tongue lick my bottom lip wanting entrance to my mouth. I opened my mouth and let it in. As he kissed me, I started to feel very weak. My legs gave out on me so I wrapped my arms around his neck. One of his hands slid behind my head and then other was on my lower back as he started to lower me to the ground. Soon, my arms no longer had strength and they slid from his neck to the floor. Last, my eyes became heavy and they slowly shut as he pulled away from me. I wasn't sure what he was going to do to me, but I knew it would change my life forever.
