Masked Evil

Heritage

        

                               I open my eyes, and then close them. I re open them to find a fan going in circles in front of me. I am not dead, or at least think so. I sit up to find I'm in a twin bed.

            My clothes were changed. I was now wearing some red sweat pants with a white v neck t shirt. I look around to find I am in what appears to be a college dorm. There are no visible windows, yet there is graffiti all over the wall. The words are hard to make out due to the mixture of the colors red and black, I can make out three words, born by monster. I must admit, I am a little freaked out by this, but I continue scanning the room.

            The floor is a complete mess, with three or four pizza boxes on the ground, dirty cloths and Dr Pepper cans. The room also has a mini fridge placed right next to a black door. There is another bed placed on the opposite side of the room. A black table is in the middle of the room with two chairs, matching the tables color. On the other side of that wall, with the bed, is a flat screen TV.

            Overall, the place looks like college kids live here.  I kick off the covers that were on top of me and jump out of bed. I walk over to the mini fridge to see if I could get some breakfast. On the way there I had to avoid some soda cans and pizza boxes. I open the fridge to find that the only things in it is a chocolate cake with white icing, (my favorite), and a 6 pack of Dr Pepper.

            "You know its rude to go through another person's fridge." declares a voice behind me.  When I heard a voice behind me I was frightened, but when I turn around I found that there was nothing to be afraid of. It was only Anastasia.

            She came out of nowhere. She is seating on the other bed, wearing a black t shirt and black skinny jeans. I look at her with a blank face.  She laughs and walks over to me, also remembering to avoid pizza boxes and soda cans. I move out of her way as she gets out the birthday cake and six pack of Dr pepper cans.

            She walks over to the table saying "Well you're not going to let me eat all your birthday cake without you, are you?"

            I am stunned. I didn't think anybody was going to remember my birthday, especially Anastasia. I walk over to her and we started to eat the cake in silence. By the time the cake was finished, I was stuffed.  I look at Anastasia and as she finishes her soda, she troughs it on the floor. She looks up at me.

            *burps* "Sorry, house cleaning doesn't come until Wednesday." Starts Anastasia.

            "That's all you want to explain?" I state.

            "Yeah, that's about it. But the Spirits will have my head if I don't tell you at least the Heritage lesson."

            "Spirits? Heritage?"

            "Yeah, about that. Before we get started, did anything unusual happen to you the last few days?"

            "No, just the typical step mother gets drug busted, creepy girl pulls out gun to shoot a stalker with a mask, and a door in a tree. That's about how all my weeks go." I say in my best sarcastic voice.

            "Well, somehow they knew that you were next in line to get masked. Don't ask questions unless I say so, this is a rather long lesson and I'm not in the mod to explain the situation twice. Understood?" she says in a stern voice.

            I nod my head, and tilt it to the side to see what was behind Anastasia. It was graffiti of course. I'm now starting to wish that there are windows so in can see what's behind the walls.
