Chapter Nine: Burying the Past Pt. One
(I think its time to bring in another key character, Enjoy!)
Song Included: I Will Be, Originally sung by Leona Lewis, Sung by: Sasha La Fleur
The bell rang to herald in the end of week and every single person in the bricked prison mashed each other in the door frame in an attempt to break from the shackles of learning, only the smallest seem to escape from the "carnage" unscathed. Sasha waited in front of her Choir class for her boyfriend Charlie to walk home with her. She sat down on a bench and stared at the trophies from the basketball games. One of the trophies read:
"Logan Thompson, State Champion- 2007"
Sasha instantly looked away from the shiny chalice, that name belonged to her once beloved boyfriend Logan. He reminded her of Charlie in a way. But one thing drove a stake through her comparisons, Charlie loved her unconditionally and would take a bullet for her (Literally), While Logan would most likely sell out his own mother just save his sorry hide. She thought he could change from his ways, until that fateful day when she caught him in the girl's locker room with another girl. She can't say that was one of the saddest moments in her life, in fact, she felt relieved to have him out of her hair. Now that she had Charlie, she didn't have a care in the world.
"Well, well, what do we have here?"
Sasha jumped a bit and looked behind her, only to meet eyes with the devil himself, her ex-boyfriend, Logan Thompson.
"Hi, Logan." She forces out, clearly hostile at his presence.
Sasha stands up and is ready to walk away before anything were to happen, but Logan was faster and got in front of her until there noses were close to touching. Sasha took a small step back to get some space in between them.
"Logan, I don't want any trouble, please, leave." She asks nicely. Logan didn't budge, instead he opened his muzzle.
"Aw come on baby, I only want to talk." He had a confident smile.
Sasha cringed. Something was becoming really fishy with him, why after four months would he talk to her? Sasha took another step back in case he tried anything funny while he was in arms reach of her. Logan took one step closer; she took another step back to keep the distance. Logan sighed and looked at her with sad eyes.
"Come on Sash… I only want to talk; we use to be so close."
Sasha cursed again in her head, "Why do guys have make us girls feel so guilty?" Sasha sighed and looked at the shepherd.
"Fine, we'll talk." she sits back on the bench again and Logan sat next to her, a little too closely. Sasha slid farther away on the bench until she reached the end. Logan didn't make a move. He just sat where he was.
"Ok… here it goes…" He took a breath, "Sasha, Would you… um…get back together…with me?"
Sasha looked at him bewildered, she shook her head.
"W-What?" she asked.
Logan slid a bit closer to her; "Would you like to get back together with me?" he was more confident. Sasha stomped his foot, Logan yelped in pain and held his foot. The setter stands up quickly and storms off until she reaches the threshold of the wing. Sasha turns to look at him.
"Logan, there is someone else, I've moved on. I don't love you anymore." Sasha's anger lessened when she sees Logan stood up from the bench, looking particularly furious.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DON'T LOVE ME?! WHO IS THIS GUY?!" Logan yelled. Sasha forgot about his short fused temper, really short fuse. One of the reasons she was glad she left him, his temper had always gotten them into trouble, as well as his womanizing. She would cry for hours after he'd yell at her, until he called to apologize. (Which he usually never did) Sasha braced her self, getting into a defensive stance; as if to fight him off if he so chooses to lay a finger on her. Logan's fur grew red.
"I thought we had something special going on?" Logan's voice was a forced calmness. Sasha's fur bristles; she took a step closer to the door and placed her paw on the handle. She looked back at Logan with an angered expression on her face.
"We never had anything special going on Logan, you would verbally abuse me day in and day out and you'd almost NEVER apologize to me, so I- AH!" Sasha's ramble was silence with Logan's paw clenched around her throat.
"Logan-get-"she wheezed, gasping for air. She opened her mouth once more but no air came out. She wanted to scream for Charlie, but no such cry was uttered from her gasping throat. Logan was snarling. He pinned her against a wall holding her up on it by sheer physical strength, he brought her face so they were eye to eye. Sasha tried to take his paw off her but no such luck as his iron grip tightened around her neck, as she was forced to peer into Logan's soul, a sort of black fire radiated from his irises, giving him an almost demonic aura. Sasha gasped her for air one last time…and everything…went…black….
********************************************************************************************************************************************************
A couple hours past, nothing was heard, the school had been empty for nearly fifteen minutes now. The janitors left the school after clearing the building of any filth. Expect for one area…
Sasha awoke in a darkened room; pain throbbed throughout her limped body. Her eyes fluttered to get a better look at her surroundings. She only saw outlines of what looked to be equipment of some kind. Sasha smelled the air and coughed, "Cleaning supplies" she thought, "I must be in the janitor's closet, but wait. That means… Oh no…No!" Sasha stood up quickly but immediately lost her footing and fell upon a bucket and broom with hard thud. Sasha screamed.
The darkness left her blind; she could only see very vague outlines of objects due to the small amount of light that was produced from the bottom of the door frame. She was beginning to panic as the darkness played with her mind. Sasha felt around for the door knob and felt its rounded shape, she turned it but it was stuck, it was locked from the outside! Sasha's breath quickened, she hated being alone, especially in a dark room, where no one can hear her. Sasha began to beat at the door desperately, grunting with each hit delivered.
"Anyone out there?! Hello? Please?! Someone, anyone!? Get me out of here!" she cried, Sasha stopped her cries to hear a small chuckle on the other side.
"Poor Sasha, no one to hear her, no one to come to her aid, Aw that's just too BAD!"
"Logan?" she asked, "Please Logan! Please, Let me out of here, you can't do this to me!" she cried again. Logan laughed evilly on the other side.
"Why should I care? You rejected my offer of starting over, now you'll just stay in here and when someone actually does find you, it'll all be too late. The chemicals in there will asphyxiate you before help arrives." Another laugh echoed from Logan's throat, Sasha began to cry and a paw covered her mouth to muffle them, Logan wasn't kidding...
He was planning on killing her.
Logan snickered, "See ya later Sash, at your funeral that is." Jacob laughed devilishly and walked away from the janitor's closet, where he left Sasha to meet her maker.
Sasha beat on the door again in desperation, "PLEASE, ANYONE, GET ME OUT!!!" she cried again, but no one answered her pleas. Only silence on the other side. Sasha beats on the door again in exhaustion and then leaned against it, sobbing. She began to feel the affects of the cleaning chemicals in the unventilated closet weakening her body as she continued to breathe in the air. Sasha felt her body slide down on the door until she touched the floor. She continued to cry…
"If Logan succeeds…will I see my friends again? My Parents? Charlie… No… I can't… Charlie has to be looking for me…he just has to be…" her thoughts were beginning to feel almost delusional, but in the way it was almost hopeful. "If he is…I guess I better start giving them something TO look for…." Sasha sat up on the hard floor, opened her muzzle and breathed in the chemical intoxicated air, for her wish of final effort…
Sasha:
There's nothing I could say to you
Nothing I could ever do to make you see
What you mean to me
All the pain, the tears I cried
Still you never said goodbye and now I know
How far you'd go
Sasha breathing became heavy as her oxygen supply was very low after the verse, she took another breath and pressed on, filled with the hope that someone will come to her rescue…
I know I let you down but it's not like that now
This time I'll never let you go
I will be all that you want and get myself together
'Cause you keep me from falling apart
All my life, I'll be with you forever
To get you through the day and make everything okay
Something odd was happening to the darkness around her, it was getting…murkier….
I thought that I had everything
I didn't know what life could bring
But now I see, honestly
You're the one thing I got right
The only one I let inside
Now I can breathe 'cause you're here with me
And if I let you down, I'll turn it all around
'Cause I would never let you go
I will be all that you want and get myself together
'Cause you keep me from falling apart
And all my life, I'll be with you forever
To get you through the day and make everything okay
Sasha's breath became heavier as the chemical's fumes continued to enter her nasal cavities, causing her to lose consciousness.
Without you I can't breathe
I'm not gonna ever, ever let you leave
You're all I got, you're all I want, oh
'Cause without you I don't know what I'd do
I can never, ever live a day without you
Here with me, do you see you're all I need?
And I will be, all that you want and get myself together
'Cause you keep me from falling apart
And all my life, I'll be with you forever
To get you through the day and make everything okay
She could have sworn someone was banging on the door….
I will be all that you want and get myself together
'Cause you keep me from falling apart
And all my life, I'll be with you forever
To get you through the day and make everything okay
"Charlie! I found her!"
(Wow, lots of drama going down, Well! I guess your gonna have to wait till the next chapter, until next time!)
(UPDATE: Im so sorry for the confusion, Logan is really Sasha's Ex Boyfriend, Not this Jacob. Anyways I hope this haven't caused any uprising anyways Im sorry, please continue reading and reviewing, thank you)
