I've decided to keep working on this story. I asked some friends and they told me I should, so I will. But, I would still love your feedback on how I'm doing. :)

I let out my shriek and crumbled to the ground, too weak and in pain to move. Camilia shrieked and started to pull me back inside.
"Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry, Ender!"
She struggled to get me through the door way. My vision was blurred with black spots.
I let another shriek as the burning pain increased and closed my eyes. Death was knocking at my door. I just wanted the pain to stop. I lay there, helpless.
Suddenly, the pain ceased. I slowly opened my eyes. I was back inside. My wounds were healed and I had a newfound strength.
"You can teleport now. Go! Leave well you can!"
"What happened?"
Camilia hesitated. She shifted from foot to foot nervously. I stared at her for a moment then realized something.
"You understood me!" A shocked look spread across her face. She gasped.
"I did!" Then horror spread across her face.
"I thought I didn't have them." She murmured.
"What?"
"Nothing. Now leave before Steve catches you!"
"Where will I go? There's humans everywhere and I've already had several close calls!"
Camilia thought for a moment.
"Go back to the village. How often do you attack? You could always leave when the urge hits."
"I lose my mind and attack whenever someone looks me in the eye."
"Oh. Well, you can just avoid eye contact. You have to at least let your parents see you."
I sighed, then nodded.
"I'll go to the village."
"Good! Now shoo! I heard some guards coming."
I closed my eyes and imagined myself in the village. I felt myself almost dissolving and then reappearing. I opened my eyes and looked around.
Here goes nothing. I grabbed the notebook Camilia had left in the alley and scribbled something down. I set it outside the door and knocked. My mom slowly opened the door and looked around, then glanced down at the note.
"JACOB! Look at this!" She shouted, happiness evident in her voice. Dad hurried out of the house and quickly read it.
"How do we know it's not a trap?"
"How do we know it isn't?"
"Fine. Allie!"
Allie my sister raced down to the door. They talked among themselves for a second before heading off to a clearing we always would go to. I teleported there and sat against a tree at the edge.
My family soon emerged from the trees and hurried, glancing around. Mom spotted me first. She gasped and pointed to me.
"Look! It's that thing from the other night!" My father pulled out a sword and charged, preparing to fight.
