Chapter twelve

Jenna was lying on the ground passed out. She laid there for a good while until she felt someone poking her. When she finally started to stir she saw a shadow standing over her. She panicked and sat up quickly but she got dizzy and fell back down. Another few seconds pass by and she woke back up. She looked across from her to see Mr. Shadow across from her. She pouted. "You really need to stop sneaking up on me Shadow and can you change back into that black cloak? You look creepy as just a shadow."

He looked at her before he nodded and wrapped the cloak back around him. He walked up to her and held out his hand to help her up. "Where are we?" Jenna asks as she looks around. "We are at your old house." He looked up at the house and glared at it. Jenna noticed the look and started to look around. "So how do we get in Shadow?" He looked at her and started walking towards the wall. "This is nothing but memories so we can just walk through. There are things you can touch and something you can't. Walls are one of those things that you can just walk through." Jenna watched him in amazement as he walked right through the walls. She didn't want to get lost so she quickly followed him.

When she entered the house different things start to flow back into her head. "Oh, I remember this..." She walked into the living room. It was painted bright blue with pictures all over them. The air smelled like strawberries. There were sheets over the chairs and near the window was a bookshelf that had not only books but small little handmade glass ornaments. She walked over to and gently tried to rub one but, her fingers slipped right though. "Oh...right these are nothing but memories." She looked at them sadly as Shadow walked up behind her. "I think I made these for mama when I was younger. She told me that they were the best thing she ever got as a present."

She looked closer at them then frowns at bit. "What is it?" She looked back at him with a confused looked. "I know this may seem weird because I don't remember most of this stuff but, I feel like there are some missing..." Shadow stared at her like he wanted to say something. "Are you okay Sha..." Just then a loud scream filled the air. In a state of fear Jenna jumped and lost her balance and fell.

Shadow was quickly able to catch her before she hit the floor. "What...was that?" They both look over to the door and Jenna's eyes widen. She watched a little girl with big brown eyes and black hair bounce from what looks like the kitchen. She was wearing a jumpsuit and her face was covered in cupcake mix. Jenna stared some more until she realized... "That's me...when I was younger..." "Jenna! Come back here and help clean up!" the little girl giggled and hid behind the chair.

Jenna and shadow watched an older lady walked out covered in flour. "You little sneak where are you hiding at?" The older lady started to walk around the living room pretending she didn't see the little girl. She then walked back into the kitchen. "Oh dear it looks like I can't find her. Looks like I'm going to have to eat all these strawberries by myself" The girl's head popped up. "Nana I'm here! I am here!" She said happily running back into the kitchen. Jenna smiled as she heard her younger self and Nana laughing.

"I remember Nana...she was so nice to me when mama and papa where at work..." Shadow looked at her and looked around. "Jenna I want you to stay close to me at all times understand?" Jenna gave him a lost look but nodded her head anyways. She looks towards the kitchen. "Can we go see the kitchen?" He looked around and then nodded as he grabbed her hand to lead her there. 'Why were his hand so cold and yet some comfortable at the same time.' She said thinking to herself.

It was before they reached the kitchen when she saw something moving in the hallway. She was about to look over there until Shadow pulled her into the kitchen. "Ah...Shadow there was..." "Ignore it for now. If you met him too soon you might not be able to handle the pain just yet." Jenna looked up at him. "Him...?" She wanted to ask more but she felt like he was going to ignore her so she kept silent. "Here you sit." He pointed to the empty chair. Jenna wasn't listening. She was taking in the smell and look of the kitchen. The kitchen was pink with blue lining. It was a bit messy from all the baking her younger self and Nana was doing. "Nana can I eat this? Can I?" younger Jenna says holding up a strawberry. Nana laughed and nodded her head. "It's so yummy Nana!" Nana rubbed her head.
