Curious Adventurer

"I'm Sorry."

Pennie stood in front of the at the Leyton's home and she breathe a sigh. After a long walk, she realized that she killed her mother and her best friend. Nobody knows if there is someone next, but Pennie is the only danger that everyone in town is fearing.

She went up the tree, and tried not to make any noise no matter what she does. She entered Johnny's room by

She felt more shame and guilt, killing her innocent friend was wrong. She just, tonight, realized that she should've just faced it. Not facing the consequences of your own actions can lead to more danger. Always making decision, never thinking enough.

Pennie tried not to wake Johnny up, she went straight up to the bathroom in Johnny's room, and clean herself up, the dirt and the scratches she had still hurt. She tried not to make a sound, but she was almost crying. Pennie was used to getting hurt when she was doing her little adventures, but scratches from a humans nail seem to hurt more.

Her crying doesn't only seem to have been caused by the pain form her physical form, she was also hurt inside. She had just done something wrong, and watched them have their fingers cut off by someone who had driven her to do her first crime.

She got out of the bathroom and back on the bed, that's where Pennie is on again. Pennie was still hurtfully bleeding and she was lucky enough to be wearing the same pair of pajamas Johnny has.

Pennie got up and went to Johnny closet, stealing his clothing, she changed into it, and Pennie hid hers away, planning to throw it as soon as she wakes up. She wrapped up her scars again, and went back to bed. Though she was very hurt, she needed to act normal, and sleep some pain out.

"I'm sorry." She says, as low as she can. She wasn't meant to be grieving for she was at fault. But she still thought that needed to, because she is human, and it was natural. She started hating herself. Actual hate. Not guilt, and not shame. Hating herself for even being alive. Crying herself to sleep, after a tiring while, she rested for a little while from the world hee actions have made.

Pennie had already slept, barely, Johnny's alarm clock for 8 am woke her. She remembered how she needed to throw her clothes form last night murder. Speaking of, her thought are connected, she stopped walking to the bathroom to wash her face. She was wondering how she was feeling for the day, which she does every morning when she wakes up.

Today, she felt the same feeling that she had when she stopped caring. She just woke up again, without any guilt, as if her life was normal again. She didn't mind about her killing someone again last night. Pennie feared what comes next. Extreme hatred for herself was what she was feeling just hours ago, now, she feels very normal. In fact, oddly too normal. The same as it was before.

She still knows that she needs to throw the clothing away, but she didn't know how to. She went down the stairs, having to have breakfast with the family.

"Morning Pennie, I cooked some pancakes, I put many chocolate chips and added so much whipped cream on top." Mrs. Leyton said with a smile, trying to cheer up the little poor girl in front of her. Mrs. Leyton went form the kitchen to the stairs after seeing Pennie.

Pennie showed an authentic smile. She didn't fake her feelings at all, she was actually happy. Mrs. Leyton might have thought that she was just faking it, seeing that she sighed and brought her smile down.

Pennie looked very normal compared to how she was just yesterday. The Leyton's were confused with how Pennie was acting so normal.

Johnny wasn't talking at all, wasn't eating at all. He was there, sitting in front of delicious food, but he did absolutely nothing. He just sat there, looking down on the food, not anything else.

Pennie had a look at him and felt no guilt and shame. She didn't feel for him, she didn't care at all. She didn't even wonder why she felt like she didn't need to care at all. Pennie was starting her day great, and she didn't want anything to ruin it, not even one of her friends.

Pennie ate a great breakfast, she thought. She was already getting herself ready for school, the Leyton's told her not to because she might not be ready to, but Pennie gave them a smile and told them that she's alright. This caused the Leyton's to be more worried, and to have more questions.

They were all there in the room, Johnny's room. They were trying to comfort him, but Mrs. Leyton stayed the longest, Mr. Leyton had to clean the house, and was running for important work that he was unable to miss. Pennie gave her friend a hug before leaving, but she didn't really care at all.

She had gotten to school with Mr. Leyton, who drived her there before going to work. She entered the school with a smile, thinking that her old life came back, the normal one, the one she would actually prefer to have kept.

Entering the school, obviously, everyone had heard of the news already. Barely anyone she knew was there, half of the school probably did not come in for the day. But Pennie didn't worry about whoever the killer is, it was herself, of course.
