Bittersweet Blueberrys | Sal x Travis (Break)

- Chapter 13 -

PoV. Sal

We all sleep over the situation. Yesterday was some rough day, I mean, we deal with Ghosts and stuff, but... Who would have guessed that the Bologna we eat almost every week is made out of Human flesh?

And the temple underneath the building... This was very much for a single Day.
And Larry meant we should just kill Mrs Packerton, did he lose his mind? We can't just kill her!

Larry is in his room and I decided to sleep on the couch. Dad didn't call by now, so I'm still stuck in the basement for now.

Quietly I play a bit on my Gearboy but It won't set up a better mood. What are we going to do about Mrs Packerton, if we can't go to the police?!
How many kids will die until we find a solution?

I sigh and lay down. I've got to keep my Mask on, even if I'm mostly up earlier then Larry and Mom, Just in case. Who knows, maybe one of them has a Toilet emergency in the night?

Luckily we don't have to worry about the red eyed demon for now, which means one problem less. But, who knows for how long? Maybe Larry's theory is correct and he comes back someday?

Hopefully Megan will be safe if so.

~ Time skip ~ (the next day)

Larry wakes me up. 'What do you want?!' I mumble, only half awake.

'DUDE. Travis is here!' Larry whisper-yells in my ear.

'No need to break my Ears, jeez.' Larry steps a few steps away.

Wait a minute. 'we have wednesday! We have school today!'

I check the clock, its 4 in the morning. What the fuck? 'I swear if this is a prank..' 
Larry's Face was serious.

*Knock, Knock* 'Larry, is Sal awake yet?' Lisa calls. 

Tired I yell something that is suppose to be a yes, and she comes in, followed by Travis. Beaten up. 

I fix my mask, I probably look like a mess from hell or some shit. When I said he could come if he wants to I didn't mean like in the middle of the night!

He looks a bit surprised as he sees me. I ignore it and go to the bathroom. It's obvious nobody here would fall asleep again before school, so I better get ready. 

I lock the door, Larry knows that It'd be just for a few minutes. 

I put off my mask and lay it on the sink, while looking at my face, or whatever I should call it. The bruise from a few days ago was so far healed, I can't see it anymore. It did blend in pretty well.

Not like anyone would see it besides me. Ash only saw the blood.. And my Face, right. 
She didn't say anything about it to the others, gladly. 

As far as I know Larry, he'd be jealous that I'd trust Ash more then him, even If I didn't show it to her from my free will. 
And Todd.. If he'd see my face he probably would already get that I never got into a Car crash. Surprisingly, Ash didn't. Or she didn't even think about it, but Todd is smarter then any of us and knows almost anything you could know. 
He'd definetely know that it was... something else...

I don't know if he would actually get that it's being shot, or if the Doctors modified it maybe to make it  look like a Attack from an Animal. 
Wouldn't be surprised if they would do so... Or are they right? Did I really Imagine the shooter? The silverish Dog mask?
The shotgun?
Mom's scream?
The bullet?

Maybe... what I remember seeing is a Dog mask, maybe it was a big wolf actually? But at the same time... 

I didn't know what a shotgun was back then. I've never seen one, over the years I found out it was a one.
