Chapter 1
I walked along the road side as the morning sun was just beginning to rise on my back I looked back at the sun the tuff of blond hair sticking out from my hood lighting up like fire from the suns bright glare that was blinding
“Same boring day nothing ever… happens around this town” I complained and stopped waiting with a group of kids for the bus to come I looked around at the kids there was only ten and none of them I liked so I sighed and shook my head flipping my bangs out of my eyes the bus came and the group of kids packed in to the door to try and be first but I saw no point in it so I waited and slowly got on to the bus sitting in the first seat that was open I had pressed my head against the back of the seat in fort of me and I tried ever so hard to keep my eyes open but it wasn’t working so I closed my eyes and drifted off in to a light sleep I woke up in what had seemed to be an hour later but I know it had only been a few minutes I looked out the window to see we were at the same school I had gone to for the past year and a half I stood up and unloaded the bus then I looked at the school I was heading to and I let my head hang down as I walked in to the doors I already knew that the first bell had rang so I sighed and walked to my first hour witch science and I took a seat at my desk that was all the way in the back of the room we did absolutely nothing all day besides listen to the teacher go on about the same thing so all I did was draw meaningless doodles and think about what else might happen today before I knew it the dismissal bell had rang and every one was rushing out the door and I walked as slow as I possibly could carrying my planner two note books and four text books I went through second third and fourth pretty normally it then came to fifth hour and there was a new student her name was Dallas she had brown hair that was down to her shoulders with streaks of fiery orange and yellow in her hair I thought it was pretty cool and I was the one to show her around the room and tell her the class rules and what not all of that went well and at the end of the hour I was asked to show her around the school I was really shocked by this seeing as to how only the student council and staff are allowed to do that I agreed to do it and I showed Dallas around the school she told me her schedule and we only had two hours together fifth and third as I showed her around the school I got to know Dallas and learned that she was pretty cool
“So Dallas if I may ask where did you come from” I asked
“Oh umm… I came from…”there was a long pause that was just awkwardly silence “a foreign country” Dallas suddenly popped I was a little unsure and suspicious about her answer but then I just nodded and began talking with her again I asked her more questions about herself and same thing happens pause and a sudden answer it made me become really suspicious about her and it also made me think of what I was to tell her because she could be a murderer or worse and then on I made sure I was careful of what I said to her I brought her back to the office and they told me to report to my sixth hour I walked all the way to the other end of the school to my sixth hour I sat down at my desk witch was again at the back of the room and the teacher yelled at me for not having my work with me I was unfazed by this since I never had my work for this class the last thirty minutes of that class rolled by and the bell rang I got my stuff and went out to the buses and got on my rout went home and seen that I was going to be home alone again my father is never home and my mother died due to cancer two years after I was born and my younger sister wasn’t even born then she died along with my mother I rushed strait to my room and sat my book bag down next to the door and I laid right down on my bed looking up at the sky full of birds that my mother had painted when I was just a baby I closed my eyes and drifted of having the strange feeling that something was watching me but I fell a drift to fast to look around and see but I swore I heard something say “She’s the-” and then I could no longer hear I woke up the next morning to nothing new I was doubting weather I really heard that or not am I going bonkers no I swear I did I know I did but nothing was their I made sure to scam every inch of my room for knowledge that they were here but I found nothing I shook my head in utter confusion and I looked at the clock on my wall to see that I missed the bus and I sighed
“Crap!” I hurried myself out the door forgetting many things and I took the long walk to school through the rain it was dreadful. I got to school just at the end of second hour and thinking about it all I thought that. “maybe what had happened last night and Dallas may be tied? Could they? I mean they arrived at about the same time I wonder is it that Dallas isn’t human? No she has to be! I’m losing it! Maybe I just need to take a break? I’m gonna be a mad woman by the time I’m twenty!” I shrugged off hearing the bell and I headed towards my third hour. nothing happened in third hour other than Dallas inviting me to stay at her house so I’m not alone. I didn’t tell her about the voice that I hear last night but I lied and said that I thought someone had broken in to the house and I was afraid to go back so she offered me to go home with her. “personally I don’t want either option if there were a third choice I’d go with that because I really think that Dallas and the voices are tied somehow.” I sighed and went to the rest of my hours then it came to going home but instead I was going with Dallas to her home. I found her and instead of taking a bus or getting a ride we walked about two miles to her house. everything that Dallas did made me question and put her under suspicion. As much as I hated doing that I thought it was necessary so I put her under my watch. I went to her home and it wasn’t out of the ordinary she had parents and a life I was envious of her. that night I sat down and ate dinner with her and her family. about an hour after eating Dallas asked if I wanted to go on a walk with her through the woods. I agreed to go with her but I was still unsure if it was the right thing to do. I mean I knew it was but I was unsure if it was safe. I shrugged it off and walked out the door with Dallas and we went on our way. Dallas took her time pacing through the woods, and I of course was running and jumping over things like a ninja. I jumped over a log and ended up landing on my face. Dallas chuckled and I looked at her as if I was going to kill her. But then I ended up laughing too even with the taste of dirt in my mouth. Dallas walked over and helped me up.
“Are you ok Shappira?” Dallas asked.
“Yeah I’m fine.” I giggled then looked at Dallas. Dallas grabbed on to my arm and began dragging me but I caught up and began running with her. I saw something I knew I wasn’t going to like. It looked of an old temple entrance that led underground. Suddenly the world around me became black like the void, Dallas was gone, and all that was there was the entrance.
“I guess I have no choice. I have to.”
