Restless Nights

Ally's POV

*Ring Ring* The bell rung signaling the end of school for the day. I sighed and smiled grabbing my books and quickly making my way out of the classroom to my locker. I opened my locker and grabbed my textbooks shoving them in my locker along with a flashlight, pepper spray, and a pack of fresh gum.

Secretly I was planning to go to the greenhouse but only to see the crime scene not to dig up the dirt or anything just to scan... and maybe find any clues. It's just the whole thing was bothering me all night. The sign, the place, and especially the targets. Why would anyone go after a therapist?

I sighed and slammed my locker shut. I screamed as a girl was standing right there in front of me. "Oh I'm sorry I didn't mean to scare you!" She said with a kind smile.

"No it's fine just a little worked up that's all. Wait do I know you?" I asked hugging my books closer to my chest. She clicked her tongue a couple times, "Yeah I'm the new student Meeghan, my brother and I just moved here from Minnesota."

I nodded in acceptance, "Oh that's cool, I hear Minnesota's really cold sometimes."

She laughed and leaned against the lockers, "Yeah but it's nothing I can't handle. Anyways we should hang out sometimes, I'm new around Nightingale so I would appreciate if someone would show me around."

"There's not much in Nightingale, nothing goes on in this town. The only news there has been is about the killings at the greenhouse and at the therapy building." I said with a sly smile. "Killings?" She asked in confusion.

"Yeah it's no big deal my uncle gots it under control," I said taking a brief pause, "anyways I've got to go got some family stuff I gotta get to and all yup." I said with a slight stutter. I hated lying it was my worth ability- other than sports - that I could actually succeed in.

She gave me a smile before hugging me, I awkwardly hugged her back as she broke the hug, "Well it was nice talking to you too Ally."

Suddenly a boy came up to Meeghan and me. "Meeghan we have to get home now." He snapped at her. I looked up to see it was Austin the kid that bumped into me the other day. He looked at me and glared, "Ok and Austin have you met Ally she's amazing!"

I blushed at the sudden comment, feeling my cheeks burn I looked down avoiding eye contact. "Yeah sure we're leaving now." He snapped once again giving me a cold stare. "Bye Ally..." Meeghan said sadly as Austin led her away.

Well...that was strange.

I shook my head and started making my way towards the exit of the school. "Hold it right there missy, where do you think you're going?" Daniel said standing in my way. Daniel was always protective over me and always have been, honestly it's annoying but I know he's just trying to help.

"Nowhere." I said looking away from his eyes. He lifted my chin forcing me to look him in the eyes, "You suck at lying."

"I know..." I said finally giving in. "Now where are you going?" He asked once again. I groaned and started walking, "Daniel just let me be." I said. Once I was out of the school I started going through the woods. I felt bad pushing Daniel away but if he was going to get all up in my business he needs to dial it down a notch.

I stepped over branches, stubs and stumps as I made my way to the pier. The greenhouse was basically on a pier or in this case right next to it. The pier wasn't like your usual pier, with roller coasters, shops, boutique's nope it was just your regular pier a very big one with nothing on it.

The only reason the greenhouse was next to it in the first place was because the pier brought out the most light. The sun would shine its brightest on this pier. My mom would take me to this pier when I was little and I remember the sun rays just shining on my skin it was a true feeling of being.

I walked up the small sided road and across the pier to the greenhouse. The greenhouse was vacant due to the crime scene so it was perfect time to check. I was only here to see proof that a mountain lion was the cause of this but something was persuading my mind to something even more.

I opened the doors to the greenhouse, a sudden wave of fear washed over me. The greenhouse looked horrible, pots were broken, glass windows were broken, it didn't even look like a greenhouse anymore. But never mind that it was time to get down to business.

I looked around the area eventually finding the crime scene. Dry blood was still on the ground, I felt a wave of nausea but swallowed it back. I wasn't going in here for nothing. I'm coming out with something that's a promise.

Suddenly wind rushed past me, my hair blew in my face causing me to fall backwards. "Ouch..." I whined getting back up on my feet again. Something was strange about this place all of a sudden.

I started to walk backwards and then dashed into a run heading for the doors. Promptly they closed, "Leaving so soon?" Said a teasing voice. I looked around but no one was there. A playful giggle echoed throughout the greenhouse.

"Who's there?" I yelled at nothing. Yet no response.

Another endless giggle. It echoed and echoed till it was nothing but a sigh. Suddenly something grabbed ankle dragging me against the cold hard floor. I screamed and kicked yet there was nothing to kick nor scream at. Tears stung my eyes as the grip on my ankle vanished and a dark figure emerged from the clouds of black fog.

"W-who a-are you?" I stuttered immensely. The fear was shown through my features I could just feel it striking through me. The figure looked at me, his eyes glowing a dark blood red. His hair was black yet long. His appearance seemed intimidating, scary, dark.

"I would say your worst nightmare but I'm afraid that catch phrase has been used. Girls!" He snapped. Suddenly 2 girls swung in both were wearing black, one had black eyes with with a red color for the pupils and the other had red eyes with black for the pupils.

"Yes my lord." The girls said bowing in unison. I scooted back hugging my knees together. The man with the strange eyes circled around me rubbing the nonexistent hair on his chin. He bent down and lifted my chin, "We found you a keeper didn't we my lord. She's a beauty." one of girls said with a devilish smile. His eyes looked at me deeply and I could hear my own heartbeat as he licked his lips seductively.

"She is." He looked me up and down. His seductive eyes trailed all over my body I felt almost exposed...

"Aren't you pleased my lord?" The girl asked. "Very much Scarlet and Venus very much..." His fingers trailed over my shoulder and ran through my brown locks. "She's an exquisite creature."

I blushed but snapped out of it. "Excuse me?" I asked. The girls then came over and examined me, I felt like some deer in headlights. "Can we drain her?" The girl I was supposing was Scarlet. "Not yet Scar!" He barked. She nodded and stood back. I was confused, the room felt like it was spinning all over a sudden.

"What is your name peasant?" He asked. I looked at him like he was insane, "Well?" Scarlet spoke awaiting an answer. "Ally Dawson..."

The man's eyes widen in surprise and amusement. Suddenly he grabbed my shirt, his cold minty breath danced across my lips. "Clairvoyant..." He whispered to me. He grabbed my chin forcing me to look at him, "Where is it?" He demanded. I jumped at his demanding tone, "I don't know what your talking about!" I argued back in fear. The cold look in his eyes turned to danger.

"The Halcyon?!" He yelled. The lights of the greenhouse started to flicker. "I-I don't k-know!" I stuttered. "It's ok my dear will bleed it out of you, Scarlett, Venus grab her!" he yelled. The two girls grabbed my arms forcing me to stand my body shook. "Let me g-go!" I screamed trying to pull my arms out of their grips.

Suddenly fangs retracted from the mans mouth I starred in horror at the figure before. I shook my head gasping as I screamed even louder. "No one will hear you.." He said coming closer. "I know you know where it is and until I find it your nightmares have just begun."

His hands carefully moved up arms and up to my forehead, there laid two of his fingers. The cold contact of his skin gave me a shock, then wisps of fog clouded my body start to shake as an exceeding amount of pain was filling into my body. I could feel my heart racing, my palms getting clammy and the weakness in legs growing stronger.

His fingers were removed from my head as I collapsed to my knee's. Hardly I could see the dark smirk upon his pale icy lips.

The figure walked away into the dark and disappeared with the two girls.

"Ally!" A voice yelled. My eyes fluttered open to see Meeghan knelt beside me. I was still in the greenhouse... I sat up, I could still hear my heart racing yet I didn't know why...

Soon another figure walked up to us. It was Austin, there was a worried look in his eyes. "Ally what are you doing here?" He asked kneeling down. I scooted back hugging my knee's. I was too in shock to talk, fear consumed my thoughts driving away any ray of light left in my mind was shattered. My dreams... they were turning into reality.

"Ally.." Austin said softly reaching out his hand but I just moved away. "H-he was h-here." I stuttered. They looked at me like I'd gone mad or something but I was in pure horror. The fangs, the pale icy blue lips...

"Ally what's wrong?" Meeghan asked.

My lips shivered under the word, "Halcyon.." I said softly. Austin and Meeghan stood up staring at each other. "He found us." They said on unison.
