I’m fallowing the screams. They lead further and further away from town. I feel like theirs someone fallowing me, watching me. The night air runs down my back. Why didn’t I tell someone where I was going, what I was doing? The screams stop for a moment, imp in front of a building with ivy crawling up the windows, hiding in the depths of the cracks and shadows. I hold my breath as I enter the building. Something propels me, something, and something. Something’s inside, I need to help it.
That’s when I hear them again, the sound of a women dying, the screams grow louder more pearling. The smell of blood fills the air as I open an old rusty door where blood seemingly is pouring out. I pear in the door, bite my lip and walks inside.
I think of all those horror movies where everyone yells at the girl "Don’t go in there! Are you stupid walking away now!” and she opens the door to her death. Now I know why they do it, the need to know. The need burns with in them. They will never know if they don’t open the door.
Blood stains old bones of victims with no names, victims I have dreamed of. Their body left carelessly around. I can see it more clearly now, the murders, without the fog of dreams it’s easier to understand. But I still don’t know why I’m having these nightmares. These nightmares are coming alive right in front of me, these people are dying, is it my fault? How can I save these people? I think of my dreams, how the all end, how no one’s ever survived. I turn and run to the door.
Just as I turn the door slams, I look for who did this, 'remember the dreams Primila think', the attacker; I’ve never sent him before. I look for a window, but there are no windows, no way out. I look around, finding a small door hidden in the floor and against my better judgment crawl threw it to an empty room.
“Dem…Demetria…” the name from my dreams, the girl I must save. I turn to look for the woman the voice belongs to, I head threw passage ways and old doors that lead in to the dark.
I look into a room it looks empty so I turn to leave when I hear the woman again “Demetria, please…” I look in the once empty room to see a woman with long dark hair and a blood stained face tied to a chair with blood pouring from her body. I’m still for a moment looking around to see what I could do, and to look for this Demetria, when I assume she’s too sick to leave I enter the old room. I run to the woman and start to untie her.
She whispers to me without moving her lips, “you must leave. Now before he finds you here." I look at this woman I do not know and look in dead eyes. I start to protest but feel like I should trust her. I nod and scope her mangled body in my arms as she screams “behind you my child” with such panic I look around trying not to drop this woman. A shadow moves and I drop her and run. I run for what seems like miles, miles that turn out to be a few blocks. I recognize the edge of the city. I look back feeling horrible about leaving the woman behind.
I didn’t even see him there. We hit dead on knocking both of us down. “Whoa there. In a rush are we.” He helps me to my feet and notices the blood that covers my clothes. “Now what’s a pretty girl like you doing around here?" He looks generally upset and keeps looking at the blood that covers most of my clothing.
“Dem.... Primila I’m coming sweetie. You cannot escape me.” The voice says in a low husky voice. Primila screamed and tried to run.
The man who caught Primila turned hearing the voice then the scream and brought her to the coffee shop down the road.
He bought her coffee and gave her his jacket to hide most of the blood and they spent what felt like hour’s just sipping coffee and look at another. She sat with her legs up against her chest in the chair keeping her eyes low. When they were almost done with their coffee she went to stand and just walked out the door heading for the park.
He sat there confused for a moment then got up and fallowed her threw the city. Once they both got to the park she noticed him and turned around to look at him.
"I...I was worried about you... you looked like a mess." she looked at him and he stammered "well not like a mess, you’re very pretty, it’s just with all the blood, but you can... I mean... I’m just gonna shut up now."
She suppressed herself and giggled, she held out her hand "Primila" she looked almost as nerves as he did.
He shook her hand "Justin" he smiled “I’m new around here. Tomorrow’s my first day at the high school."
She felt momentarily bad for him remembering her first day. "It’s not too bad if you know the right people."
Justin looked at her and shakes his hair out and for the first time she relied how long it was, "I'm not going to the public school."
I look at him for a moment confused and then mutter ‘Pintart’ as if it was a curse. I smile and ask him what his schedule was, when he shows me I point out the classes I have with him and tell him where to meet me in the morning so I can drag him to first class with me.
-------
I'm waiting for Justin as nick and Val show up laughing and kissing just like every other morning.
"YO Primster, whatcha hatching?" I look at Val in hope she might help me understand why nick is acting so utterly bazar. Unfortunately she looks as confused as me.
I sigh before replying "You know same old. You?" Looking around I barley hears Nick's response when I see Justin wave at me from his car and walk over. Valarie mutters something under her breath and we all start laughing.
The bell goes off and there’s a collective groan as the day starts. The fingers of light reaching forward with the start of the day. Val and Nick kiss before breaking a part and as Justin reaches us he says a quick 'Hi' before returning to the sulks and lowers his head becoming a turtle hiding in his shell. I sigh and smile walking to class with everyone.
I was watching Justin from his spot in front of me. Nick landed over and passed me a note. I looked at him and read it 'So you swapping spit with newbie?' I laugh and nick smirks as Justin turns around. "no. no. no. god dammit nicks." hushed under my tongue and look back trying to keep the blush from my meeting with my cheeks.
Nick smiles as Mr.Baren says "Mr. Lee since you want to talk how bout you tell the class how the big bang came to its current state."
Nick grins at Mr.Baren and says "I’m sure you could explain it much better sir; I’m afraid I never was good at explaining things to morons." Mr. Barren stares at Nick "Watch your tongue child," but continued with his lesson glaring at Nick every time his eyes roamed in his direction.
Nick tried to keep the laughing under his tongue but I could see it in his eyes. No matter what I said Nick would assume the worst. It was why I loved him.
