The Weapon of Rain

Chapter Four

It suddenly felt like all the air was leaving my body.

I couldn't breathe and it wasn't just because of my panic.

I genuinely could not breathe.

The guy pulled me up by my hair and turned me around as I thrashed, gasping for air and trying to break free.

Oh my gosh, it's the stalker guy.

It was no use trying to break free, he's too strong for me.

As he grinned creepily at me, his eyes had this intense look in them like he was concentrating hard on something.

I was beginning to lose consciousness from lack of oxygen.

"Help.." even I could tell from the weak tone in my voice that no one was going to hear me.

The guy confirmed that when he laughed mercilessly.

"I already told you, you aren't getting rid of me this time. The others are going to be so happy when they realize I have Eric's long lost daughter. Without you in the way, we can fulfill our plan."

Huh??

I can't make sense of anything as the world dims around me.

I'm still gasping for air, I think I might be dying.

Before I completely black out, my head gets a sudden sharp pain in the center.

I hear a god awful scream rip through the woods and only barely register that it's me making that sound.

My head is most definitely exploding.

The guy's grip on me fails and I fall to the hard earth.

I look up and see him gripping the sides of his head and shaking uncontrollably.

He suddenly starts screaming and falls rolling on the ground in pain.

I can't register what's happening, only that the pain in my head is lessening and I can finally breathe again.

I see the guy stop moving. I'm so out of it, I don't even understand what that means.

Another tall figure soon approaches the body, bends down to check something and then grunts in surprise.

The figure then stands back up and comes over to me.

I'm fighting to stay conscious, but I know I can't for much longer.

I try in vain to move away from the figure. I can't make out any of their features since it's so dark out at this point.

The figure scoops me up and then I black out.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I groan and stretch as I wake up.

"Woah there."

My hand suddenly hit something very solid.

I open my eyes to see a deep emerald pair staring back at me... very close to my face. I look down to see that my hand is hovering over this guy's chest.

Yikes that's not awkward.

Most of the memories of what happened before I blacked out hit me like a smack in the face.

I pull my hand back and move as quickly as possible to get away from this guy who's leaning over me. Not that I can move very far since he's pretty much on top of me and I'm trapped on a bed.
