The missing.

Chapter 12

I finally slowed down, I was beat. My heart felt like it was going to come out of my chest. My side killed with cramps, I never ran so much in my life. I still didn't know where I was, trees hung over me.

I sat down by a tree, my face was stained with mascara. My clothes were torn and my sneakers were full of mud. I can't believe Harold's uncle risked saving my life. I didn't get it tho.

He wanted me dead since I started to know about mrs.croc. Maybe Harold lied to me, maybe he wanted me dead. Harold's uncle must've Tryed to talk him out of it, but failed.

I reached around in my pocket for pain killers. I sat in the dirt and I didn't know how I was getting back to the mansion. I wonder what was waiting for me back home. My head tilted back and I felt my eyes close and I quickly fell asleep.

I woke up to the sun shining in my face, the tree branches lay low to my face and the birds chirped softly. I stood up to stretch but then stopped. A quick shot of pain rushed through my body, my side still killed. I lifted up my torn shirt, to find a bullet wound.

I wasn't hit with it, it went through the first layer of my skin. I think that's how I explain it. The blood stopped coming out tho, the tree was covered in my blood tho. I must've bleed alot last night. I took off my shirt and tied it right around my waist so the wound wouldn't get infected.

I was now only in my sports bra in the middle of nowhere. I walked for a little bit, but only pain shot through me. I didn't give up that easily. I kept walking straight for what felt like hours. I finally came to a road, I didn't know where it lead it just kept walking it until I found someplace.

A couple cars barped their horns at me and some guys whistled as they drove by seeing I was just in a sports bra and a mini skirt. No one really knew the pain I was actually in, no one even bothered to help me.

I finally came to a little store. It wasn't much too it, a small cafe actually. I went to open the door but I saw Harold's car. He must be inside, I quickly ran behind the building. So many memories of last night came back too me.

I sat behind the building and began to cry. I clutched my side and felt my shirt was wet, the blood it was still coming. I needed to get inside before I lost to much blood. I heard Harold's car start up, it was extremely loud. When I thought it was safe I walked out infront. I was about to open the doors of the cafe when I heard Harold's car make a big turn around. He must've saw me, I ran inside. I told the worker to call the cops and fast.

I ran into the bathroom and locked the stall and put my feet up on the toilet so he wouldn't see me if he came in here. I heard the door swing wide open, Harold screamed "where is she?!" "I saw her"

The store owner told him he didn't know and I heard him pick up the phone. A gun shot was fired and everything went silent. I stayed in the bathroom for about an hour just to be safe. When I thought everything was okay, I put my feet on the floor without making a sound and I opened the bathroom stall. Everything seemed normal now.

Then I heard sirens and I ran out of the bathroom, and outside. Sure enough cop cars were everywhere. One police man grabbed me and put me behind the car. What I didn't realize was that Harold was still inside and I could've been killed, I didn't know tho. I didn't even see him inside.

Then I remembered just the faint outline of someone behind me when I ran out of the bathroom, I thought it was a dead person but guess not.

Harold finally walked outside, hands on top of his head. He gave me a bad look but the police shoved him in the car.

As for me I was rushed to the hospital right after that, I never even passed out. The doctor told me I was strong as he put stitches in my side.

It was finally all over, the games, the ghosts, everything.

Then I remembered.. I had alot of explaining to do.

Authors note; Harold's uncle saved her? Wow, Harold's gone too now. What would she tell the police? Would they believe her about the ghost? VOTE:) COMMENT:) LOVE YOU ALL!!!
