April

20

For what felt like hours, I sat on the cold floor, staring at the small, lifeless body in front of me.

I couldn't believe my baby sister was gone.

Oliver placed a hand on my shoulder and I looked up at this saddened face. Tears fell slowly and silently from his blue eyes.

"I'm so sorry April" he said, heartbreak laced in his voice.

Without thinking, I lunged at him and wrapped my arms around his neck tightly as he held me round my waist. He sobbed silently as I was full on bawling my eyes out. He patted my head trying to soothe me, but I only cried harder and harder.

A creak suddenly filled the air and I jumped from my position. Behind Oliver stood the grotesque creature itself, high and mighty, like it hadn't committed a crime.

It's jagged smiled widened when it saw the tears streaming down my face and I became blinded by rage.

It gurgled, as if clearing it's throat and said.

"You like my work? I made it especially for you, April"

It's voice was normal, no longer distorted or loud like it usually was. It pointed at Anna while Oliver just stood there in shock and fear.

"Why?! WHY DID YOU DO IT YOU SON OF A BASTARD!!" I yelled at him as the tears fell again.

Bale muttered only one word to us. One word that made me question reality and shook me to the core. One word that made me wonder if i heard things right or if i had simply gone insane at the loss, although, insanity wouldn't be a bad thing at the moment, to just escape from this horrid reality, even for a little while.

"Hungry"

Jared's POV

After helping my mom unpack her things into the masters room, I set out on a car ride, just to take my mind away from the recent events when I got a text.

I unlocked my phone to find to see it was from Tyler.

"Jared, please come quick, something bad happened"

The text caught me by surprise and I could only hope nothing happened to April.

My sweet girl.

"I'm on my way".

April's POV

"Hungry? What do you mean hungry?"

"You didn't even eat anything out of her!" Oliver yelled at the creature but whimpered when it threw him a glare.

"Drank. Blood"

"Wait wait wait wait wait, let me get this straight. So you drank my sister's blood and didn't even care to fix her up?! You just let her bleed to death!" I screamed, the tears coming at full force.

Bale flashed a malicious grin at me as it's eyes jumped in delight.
"Exactly the point"

I lost it.
I ran full speed at this thing and jumped on it, clawing at it's skin with my nails. It screeched in pain and pushed me off itself. I fell to the ground and groaned in pain as my back hit the floor with full force.

"Get out April, I will see you later" it glared at me.

"Well I won't be seeing you anytime soon" I said and walked out, hissing in pain as Oliver supported me.

I climbed up and out of the hatch, pulling Oliver up and into the shed. We both walked into the yard only to find that the house was surrounded by police cars.

We walked out of the shed and rounded the corner to the house. I walked into the living room to see Mae and Jade huddled up together and giving a testimony to the officer.

"She..... she's my sister, April" Mae pointed at me and the police officer turned to look at me. His eyes brushed through my body before placing itself on my eyes.

"Would you care to tell us what happened, Miss?" He asked as a small smile made its way to his face.

"I...........I don't really want to talk about it right now" I said.

He nodded in understanding and stepped out of the house.

I smiled and walked into my room, grabbing a shirt and sweats from the closet and making my way to the bathroom.

I slowly undressed myself and stepped into the tub. The warm water falling through the shower holes soothed me a little as the dirt from my body fell into the drain.

I felt dirty, guilty and overall responsible for the death of my sister. I didn't know I was crying till I felt the salt on my tongue and just crumbled to the floor. I scrubbed myself over and over and over again till my skin was red but no matter how long and hard I scrubbed, the guilt wouldn't leave. It was permanently engraved in my soul.

A knock on the door made my breath hitch.
"Who-who-who's there" I asked,my voice breaking.

"It's me, Oliver. When you're done, I have someone who wants to see you" he said.

I mumbled a small 'okay' and I heard his footsteps retreat which left me a moment to cry for my sins.
