Darker Than Black

I can't believe Tylor ditched me. So now I would have to walk home alone. I called his line like a hundred and one times but nothing. It went straight to voicemail.I went to the parking lot and his reserved space was empty.Unbelievable!!!I'm really going to give him a piece of my mind....no like a huge chunk of my mind when I get a hold of him.He might be training on the tracks with the basketball team or probably hooking up with some random girl.I just hope its not the latter.The walk home was long and agonizing although my house was like ten minutes away from the school but as lazy as I am it seemed like a whole hour.The road was silent with no car or a soul moving up or going down it. I was left alone with my thoughts and tall almost dried up trees at both sides of the path.I didn't know what crept me out more, those weird looking trees or my thoughts.I always caught certain movements at the corner of my eyes but when I turned around I saw nothing. A cold breeze blew acros

I was in this dark place.The woods?Yes. Seems like it. There were so many silhouettes of tree trunks. If only they were actually trees.Darkness and a defeaning silence enveloped me. The silence seemed to be so loud that it muffled the sounds of my beating heart. Owls whooed and bats swooped the air. I couldn't make out much. I don't know why but I wasn't at all sacred.I was alone. At least that's what I thought until the sound of a breaking twig sent all that out in the trash.I became scared suddenly. My short and raspy breaths made me feel more and more dizzy. Then there came a growl right behind me. It was low, menacing. Nothing I've ever heard before. I shuddered, slowly turning to face my predator. I made out a darker silhouette in a shape of a wolf.A wolf?No. It was huge, 10 times larger than a normal wolf. My heart seemed to drop straight into my stomach. I froze, stuck between the present and my past, no idea if I even had a future.The silhouette moved, its mighty paws

In the bathroom I let the warm water pour down on my skin releasing my ever so knotted muscles. Ruckus out the door caught my attention. I quickly turned off the shower so I could listen better. The house went quiet.I shrugged it off. The moment I decided to turn the shower back on the noise came again, louder this time. It seemed it was coming from the kitchen like someone was ransacking the place.Scared, I slowly got out the bath and wrapped my Berry-pink towel around my body. I stood in my room taking a glance to make sure my room was indeed empty. I reached under my bed for the baseball bat I always kept there.I inhaled sharply as I felt its cold metallic touch against my fingers. I gripped on it hard, like my life depended on it. With each step, the wooden stairs creeked under my feet. I immediately regretted not getting clothed first before trying to act all brave. I gasped as soon as I got to the kitchen, my palm shot up to cover my mouth. Blood drained from my face

''Your parents must be really proud of you then....'' I chimed.He shifted his gaze to one of his pottery works immediately I made mention of his parents.'' Yeah, I guess...'' He sighed.I must have hit a sour spot in his heart. Probably they are no more? I really wanted to find out the reason but I didn't want to push things so I let it go.''Even if they are not, I'm proud of you....'' I smiledHe returned the gesture with a smile of his own.''Umm....this is actually not what I wanted to show you...'' He lighted the mood.''That's not all?....'' I beamed so excited.He then sailed past me to a canvas that had been hidden behind a sack cloth. Andrew reached for the material and yanked it from the top.I gasped, my eyes shooting wide.It was a painting of me with a smile, so care free. My eyes seemed like they had never seen sorrow nor pain. This was how I'd look if every thing was perfect.My vision begun to blur. I was tearing up.''This is how I picture you everyday. This is w

The sunlight pierced my vision as I stirred awake. I winced as the sharp pain I felt in my neck flew up my head making me feel a bit dizzy. I realized I was no longer tied up to the chair. I must have slept really deep. I now lay on the bed with my hands tied up over my head. I groaned in frustration. Yesterday was not just a nightmare as I hoped before. My head snapped to left as light raps resonated through the door and in came Tylor holding a tray of food.He had a bright smile on his face. A smile I wish I could reciprocate if the situation was totally different.'' Hello Sunshine. How was your night? '' He chirped happily.No response.'' Well I brought your favourite breakfast, scrambled eggs and beacon.'' Tylor mused.I just looked on unfazed.''Oh Sky c'mon. You've not eaten for a long while now. What's wrong?.....''I scoffed. I can't believe he is actually asking me this?...What's wrong?... Kidnapping me is not an enough reason then what is?''....If you continue li
