Revenge

Chapter 8

Read in Black Background.

Joshua,

"You can't put me in there.", I yelled as the guard tried to drag me in the hole.

"Be quiet sir or your punishment will be worse.", he yelled. I looked around me making sure they wasn't following me.

"Please, she's following me.", I broke down. He just shook his head and threw me in the dark, cold room probably thinking I was crazy. I banged on the door but there was no use. It was brick. I yelled and yelled.

"Shhh, don't be scared Josh."

"Please just please leave me alone.", I sobbed. I looked in every direction not knowing where the voice came from.

I felt like I got my wish. Its been 3 days since I've been in here. I didn't take the food that they tried to feed me. I starved and starved. Every time night came, I'd sit in a corner of the hole and plead for no one to try and come after me. Nothing. I feel like it wouldn't be too long before everything start again.

It's about 2 more hours before night time. 2 more hours I have until I either survive or die. It only depends on the spirit. 2 more hours until I find out if the spirit will haunt me tonight or keep silent like the last few days. 2 hours for unanswered questions. 1 hour 28 minutes left to fight for my life.

"What's your goal? What do you want from me?", I screamed as the music continued. If only the guards could hear my screams. My banging. When will I get out of this place?

*faucet turns on*

I slowly walked over to it the best way I could barely even seeing it due to the dark. I stood in front of it looking down at the water pour out. I reached my hand for the handle and turned it off breathing heavily. I felt a whiff of air run past my bare neck. I rubbed the back of my neck. Its probably just drift. Maybe I'm creeping myself out. I looked at the mirror taking one good look at myself. I looked horrible, bags under my eyes, skinniness approached my face, red eyes, I just couldn't afford to rest because I may wake up on my death bed.

"Is that hand writing?", I asked myself looking more into the mirror. It said, we're not alone.

"It can't be. It can't be.", I assured myself closing my eyes. I needed time to think. Why am I doing this to myself. I'm torturing myself.

The music continued creeping me out even more.

But maybe none of this is real. Yeah it can't be. Probably just a bunch of bad dreams. I opened my eyes again still facing the mirror. Arabiah's body holding onto mine and Amunet whispering in my ear. I took my face out the mirror frightened looking down. Nothing there. I looked back in the mirror. I knew it. I knew I was just thinking negative thoughts. I turned around and sat on my bed only falling through it.

At The Hospital

"Did you hear that Chy?", I asked her.

"Who cut that on?", she asked going into the bathroom. She turned the faucet off coming back in the room with me.

"Are you okay?", she asked sitting back next to me.

"Yeah I'm okay. What happened when you checked on Amunet?", I asked her.

"She di-... Do you hear that?", she asked me.

"Yeah, it's just some weird music. Is there a radio somewhere in here?", I asked.

"I'll check.", she said getting up once again. "Found it.", she turned it off but it didn't budge. I slowly looked at her.

"Were about get out of here Asia", she told me.

"I can't. I'm all hooked up to all of these machines. There's no use.", she shook her head. The music got louder. People spoke as the music played within it.

"Ok you're right. Help me out of this. Hurry!", I yelled at her hearing them talk Even more.

Once she unhooked me, we ran down the halls of the hospital looking for the exit.

"Excuse me mam, you have to go lay back down.", I nurse told me.

"You don't hear that?", Cheyenne yelled to her.

"Hear what? Are you okay?", she asked looking at us like we were stupid. I looked behind me seeing Amunet? I slowly walked over to her.

"Don't, Stop", Cheyenne yelled. I looked back at Chey. "She's dead.", she said.

"W-What.", I said.

"Mam, you need your rest, there's no one there's no one there.", the lady said once again. The music stopped. We ran past her and out the door.

"Which car is yours?", I asked Cheyenne. She was staring at something.

"Chey we have to hurry. Where's your car?", I asked her.

"It's t-that one.", she pointed. I took my eyes off of her and followed her finger which lead my eyes to a silver car with two girls, two boys, an older woman, a lady, and a man.

"W-Why are they by your car?", I asked her horrified.

"I don't know.", she shrugged with tears streaming down her face. We walked a little closer. I recognized four people. One of the boys were Josh, Amunet, Arabiah, and the older woman was Arabiah's grandma. The one we killed.

"On the count of three we run. No lookin back. We run and run until we pass out. Don't give up, Don't look back. Just keep going.", Chey said. I nodded slowly.

We took off pass the car.

"Wait!", I screamed.

"Keep going.", Chey said still running ahead of me.

"Josh isn't dead. He's not.", I screamed.

"Let's go.", Chey yelled. I started back up seeing them close behind me. They caught up to me and I lost Cheyenne.

Is Asia confused or is she right?
