I slammed onto the hard dirt that was below me. "OW! Fucking shit damn!" I rubbed the back of my head and shook my hair out. The ground appeared hazy for a minute then returned to normal. I wiped away the little blood from biting my lip then looked around, the train had driven away fast. Wait! She gave me a map of some sort right? I looked back and forth for the sheet of paper but found nothing. CRAP! Did I leave it on the train? Crap crap crap crap crap crap CRAP! I looked in every area it could have landed. Did it blow away maybe? Yeah, that makes sense. I stood up and began to search.
I smiled. I had done good. Right? He was eternally damned here, out there he would never meet us and would fall in love with a nice girl and live a normal life. Right? Hopefully. I mean, what he doesn't know won't kill him right? I opened the laptop I had in my slim bookcase. Hot damn I loved privileges, too bad I would loose them for a month. I frowned and looked out the window next to me. I couldn't see him so that could be a good sign, right? I began to fidget. I worried for him out of what? A stupid dream that made a guy that looked like him? Ha! Okay, now I just needed a story. Uh... Oh! He uh... crap. He jumped out the window himself? Crap he probably won't believe that... I was stumped. I reached into my bag and pulled out a notebook. I started to draw a girl with short blond hair and smiled. Procrastination. Greatest thing ever. I was deep into the doodle and began to have her life form into my thoughts. Name is Katie... Boyfriend is a DJ... DJ named Chris... 23 years old... I was deep into my drawing when I felt a sudden chill. Almost home, I thought in disgust. I heard the creaking of the old thing stopping and stood up. I dragged myself out of the train and sat down in the taxi with no driver. As we drove away I looked back and smiled, the train station was gone.
"Sup Pedo?" I asked as I walked into the large front doors.
He frowned then turned back to his book. I began to walk upstairs when he cleared his throat and smiled, "I guess you're losing your edge then? Hm? Couldn't stand to have another around here? Or is it because you have had those countless dreams of him? Maybe it's the fact you see yourself in him, an ignorant child just trying to survive the world, barely able to make it through each day or possibly even down to the fact that you both would give your life to your best friend in a second, yes that innocent look is what first made me say,'Oh that girl would be perfect,'." I dropped the bag in my hand and clenched my fist.
"Shut the hell up." I hissed through my teeth.
He laughed, "Please, I know your not the brat you were before, you decided to change two years before I met you. And it worked. You're weak. You can't even squish a bug anymore." I stood there in silent anger. He was right, that promise was the only thing from killing him a long ass time ago. I picked up my bag and turned. I naturally flicked him off then went upstairs. I slammed the door and was about to kick the door in half when a knock made me through it open.
"GREGORY I SWEAR TO GOD I WILL RI- Oh, hi Zoe." The petite fragile looking black hair girl that magically curled upwards at the ends frowned at me.
"My name isn't Zoe."
"Fine fine fine, Annngggelll." I dragged out the last word and batted my eyes in doing so.
"I over heard you and Gregory fighting. Why do you two always bicker?"
I laughed, "Bicker. You're so old. But seriously, that dude is a f-"
"Why do you swear so much? It kinda gets annoying some times." I rolled my eyes and shrugged. "Tell me about that boy. Please?" Zoe was always so interested in the possible new guests, hell knows why.
"He's just some pus-... He's just a teenager. Nothing too special, not really." I wasn't in a talking mood.
"Well... Was he cute?" Zoe blushed slightly.
"He was a pack of strawberry cigarettes, that's all I'm saying." Speaking in our girl code in case "a certain someone" over heard.
"He was or he seemed like it?"
"He totally is."
"Oh well."
"Well, he's not gonna be around here anymore and I'm just gonna go to bed I guess." I did NOT want to talk anymore.
"Night!" Zoe skipped down the hall way to her room and I went back inside mine. I shut the door and laid down. Had he found his way back to the real world yet? Was I too late to save him from this hell hole? No no no. He had to of made it back, there was no way that he could have wandered passed the gate by himself. I suddenly realised the sound of an engine running puled me out of my dream-like stance. I ran and looked out the window to see Gregory driving the Taxi out to where the train station would be. Damn mouse can't stand to lose a soul like that. I smiled slightly, that must be why he hates me so much. I happily laid back down, content with all in the world.
Damn damn damn damn DAMN! Where the hell is the whole world? No map and this train seemed to go straight to scenic freaking NOWHERE! FAN-FUCKING-TASTIC! I groaned and sulked on the dry dirt floor for a minute then looked at the tracks... Could I follow them back to the station? I stood up then looked at the direction that the rails went. Perfect. I began walking along it slowly in case I saw anything. Thinking of Nass made me start walking faster then eventually running. A loud noise made me turn around. Was that an engine? Yes. It was! A train engine! Ah aha! The train was going back to the original station. I would follow it back or even hitchhike back. I started to wave my arms when I saw the bright lights coming towards me. Suddenly I realised it was coming RIGHT AT ME. I froze and found myself unable move.
"Look out!" I heard come from somewhere nearby and felt like something was thrown at me. The train zoomed passed and I tried to get up when I realised the thing thrown at me was a person. "Are you okay?" The thing got off me and I saw it was a boy around the same age as me... Maybe older.
"I'm freaking fine." I hissed and got up, flustered. How stupid could I get? Just let a train almost run me over?
"I'm sorry if I did some thing..." He said confused.
"It's not your fault." I muttered then turned to him again. "You know how to get to a phone or something? I don't have mine."
"Uh, not really actually. I don't think that you can just get back to town walking that way. Nothing out there for miles, you'd fry before tomorrow."
"Where did YOU come from then?" I asked accusingly.
"Well, I stay at a hotel near here... But you couldn't go there!" He nearly yelled the last part at me.
"Why not?"
"It's... For certain people..."
"Well some chick tried to take me there I think...I mean, she kidnapped me on that train or something." He was quiet and looked as if he was about to make a run for it. For the first time I actually looked at him. He had slightly long blonde hair with half circle glasses in front of gray eyes. He had on a striped red, yellow, and purple long sleeved shirt but had two weird things on... One was like a nightcap made of the same materiel from his shirt and had these cages hanging off braclets and one had a glowing yellow money sign and the other had a glowing pink heart.
"Uh, I have to..."
"If your not gonna help me atleast tell me your name so I can thank you properly." Some of the polite bull shit Nass had crammed into my brain had sunk in.
"My name is Ju- uh, I mean Jay. My name is Jay." I rollled my eyes, a fake name, really?
"Well, thanks 'Jay', I'll just go this way then." I began to walk away and out of the cornor of my eye saw him bolt. I smiled and waited for him to be far enough away. I turned and began to run after him.
Done. Lol... I am happy with this chapter and some stuff may not seem important in the current chapters but they could be in the long run. x)
Do you know who I am? They call me uh... Jay~
Not funny but still ^^
