You drifted about in your mind for a while before opening your eyes and seeing black around you which seemed to engulf everything. Hazel eyes scanned until they landed on a dining room setting, you know this dining room, because it is your dining room. Something was different though, it was empty; with minor hesitation you approached the dining room only to see something that was the shaped of a snake. Freezing just before you stepped out of the black and into the room, the snake seemed to rear up and look at you with calculating eyes. "What is wrong?" it asked you.
You had to think about it, did the snake just…talk to you? Shaking your head clear you tilted your head. "Aren't I dead? What else could possibly be wrong? i…don't even remember why it is I died." You held your head and stumbled backwards, desperately trying to remember things. You remembered the school festival, and spending the day there with hiyoki; you remembered going home, but other than that? You remembered nothing, did you even make it home?
"make this simple for me please, im not getting any younger. What is it that you wish for? What is it that you want?" it spoke again to draw you from your thoughts. You looked down at the wood floor before stepping in and suddenly the entire scenery was just your house. You could tell by the boxes in the corner of the kitchen filled with appliances that had yet to be unpacked. The fresh paint on the walls that you could smell almost.
"what do I want? My wish? I want people to listen to me when I speak. Other then that…I just want to go home to my mom…" you responded as tears welled up in your eyes, you couldn't stop crying. It was like you knew something bad happened but couldn't put your finger on it. "If its like that, I think I can grant it…" with those words the snake lunged at you and there was sharp pain in your eyes. you fell backwards into nothing and it was like a sudden jolt struck your body.
Once again your eyes opened; you looked around and found yourself lying in a hospital bed. You couldn't seem to remember anything that had happened the night before. You also could barely remember what exactly happened while you were out cold. The empty room with an eerie silence was horrible, where was your mother? Surely she would have heard about you if you were in the hospital.
Just as the situation started to roll over you, the room door opened. A taller man came in and gave you a once over. He looked like a doctor, but you weren't sure. "miss. (l/n)? im your doctor, im genuinely surprised that you are alive right now to be completely honest with you." You gave him a small look of confusion that went unnoticed as he continued.
"This next part however, may come as a bit of a shock, but you should be told this before your discharged. We tried contacting your mom and…well. Its not something you want to hear but, your mother was shot an killed by a burglar during a break in…do you have anyone else you can go to?"
Shaken up by shock, fear, and sadness; you sat up slowly and shakily before nodding your head in response, this was a lie of course, but it wasn't a doctors job to dig too deep. You were released abit later and started the run home, you were told that your chinchilla had managed to live as well and was being kept at a veterinary clinic until someone claimed him.
Rushing in to the clinic since it was near you 'burglarized' home, you stopped to collect your friend. "hiyoki…!" you practically cried out when the desk worker brought him back to you. She said that he was fine and looked as if he managed to escape unharmed. This was good news to you, considering.
"hiyoki…im so glad youre okay." You gave a sigh of relief as you stood out in the front of the clinic maybe 30 minutes later. "yeah, me too. What about you? Youre okay right?"
"oh yea, expecially after being told my mom was murdered and—wait, did you just…?" you glanced at your furry friend. "hnn…yeah, I noticed it when I woke up. Nearly scared the vet." He mumbled and suddenly you kinda felt bad. He woke up and could do something an animal wasn't exactly supposed to be able to do.
"Im sorry I didn't know…but it is kinda weird ya know?" you were surprised that you wernt too shocked like a normal person should be. "its not everyday your pet just starts talking to people." y/n sighed heavily and then sat him on her head and started speed walking, though by the time you had almost reached your home you were jogging.
There were scarcely any people and few police were there. When one approached you, you felt tears well up in your eyes. "excuse me miss, but what is your name?" you rubbed at your eyes quickly before looking up again. "(y/n) (l/n)…I live here." The officers eyes widened slightly.
"you aren't supposed to be here right now, we're still finishing up here." You lowered your eyes as you listened to him "let me pass…" you mumbled. "anyway, we will be done in an hour or so, if you have somewhere to…" your head shot up nearly knocking Hiyoki of your head as you finally shouted. "Let me Pass!" the voice let out was sort of metallic as if you were speaking through a microphone.
As if he was compelled to do so, the officer went quiet and then stepped to the side. "do watch your step…its still abit messy in there." You stood there shocked still for a few minutes. You were confused as to what just happened, all you did was yell right? As you quietly stepped passed and were about to enter the house, a shard of mirror from the mirror hanging just inside the door way made you freeze.
What was looking back at you seemed off, no, everything was exactly the same. Except for one thing that seemed to frighten you; what was starring back at you wasn't a pair of hazel eyes that were normal for you, but actually a pair of crimson orbs that glowed. "wh…what the hell!?" you cried and took off deeper into the house. What had just happened? Why did the guard let you pass just because you yelled? What was happening to you…?
a/n: omg im so sorry for not updating in a while I was getting distracted and—please forgive me im begging you /3 also, about this chapter, im not sure how happy I am with it so any feed back would be nice so I can change it and better myself in later chapters. y/n s eye ability is "Ordering Eyes" which basically binds people to her will I guess? Im not sure how to describe it other then they do what she says within a five minute span. As always, read, comment, leave a favorite/follow, and enjoy.
