the boy in black

wilted roses

I looked out the living room window after breakfast and saw someone at the tree off in the distance so I went over to it. Castor was sitting by it and by him was a grave where roses were planted but were very wilted and peddles were slowly falling off "this is Sebastians grave...its empty.... but its his he always came right here in this very spot to draw his amazing pictures one day he didn't come home from drawing and my parents sent me to look for him....he wasn't here nothing was here I walked around looking and all I found was his scarf covered in blood and I brought it to my parents while andy was sitting in the living room.... I couldn't tell him" castor's head hung low and he buried his face into his hands crying the wind blew softly I sat next to him and he pulled me close "he can't take you...I wont lose you not again" his voice was shaky "you won't lose me" I smiled as a tear dropped from my eye I heard Sebastian's voice he called to me "the bad man is coming...run" I looked around and something caught my eye "castor! We have to go right now look"! Castor got up and looked where I was pointing I got up and yanked him towards the house we ran and as soon as we got into the house the power went out "we cant let him in" we barricaded the windows and doors the dark figure pounded on doors and windows an then everything was silent the barricades slammed down and the doors flew. open castors parents shoved us into a closet everything was quiet and the door opened no one was there
