The Unnatural

Chapter 11: The angel disappears

Scottie's POV

I was extremely worried. How could we be so stupid to leave the body there? Who knows, the cops could've found the body already. It shouldn't be a big deal, right? I mean all we have to do is hide it well.

I don't feel guilty at all for killing Crosania. I don't know why, but I just had a burning hatred for her. But then again, what did she do to me? Nothing. She didn't do anything. I might not feel guilty, but I know this is something that will stick into the back of my brain for the rest of my life. Me and Nick were running so fast, we almost fell flat on our faces.

We kept running until we found the familiar dead end sign, and raced into the forest. We took a right to the cliff, And when we looked down we were shocked. Cops were everywhere. And when I looked closely, I saw Crosania's crushed body being photographed for the daily news. Nick had looked like he was about to throw up. And me? I felt like my life was over at that moment.

I can imagine my life ending in a cold cement prison cell. I had to hurry up and quickly pull Nick by the collar of his shirt back, to not make us noticed. All I know is that me, Nick, and Jake are in some deep shit. And it was all my fault. Me and Nick knew what the best choice was, to run as fast as we could back home and act like nothing happened. So we did, we ran and didn't look back.

When we arrived back to my place, Jake wasn't in the basement. Of course he wouldn't be brave enough to stay in my basement at night. What a twat. Nick told me bye, and went home, leaving my alone. I hope this all goes away.

*Next morning*

I woke up feeling groggy and tired. I had a terrible nightmare about Crosania coming back to life and killing me. It felt so real, that I was relieved to wake up. I stood up from my bed and walked to the kitchen. I made myself a cream cheese bagel and turned on the miniature television that stood in the corner of the kitchen counter. I was calmly chewing, until I heard something that caught my attention.

*News story*
Here on the daily news, police recently found a girl named Crosania Malenzo 17 , tossed over a cliff. It was said that Crosania was gone for too long, more than 3 days because her mother had received a text saying, "Mom I'll be at my friend's house for a few days. love you." It was past 3 days so Crosania's mom called the police station. They instantly knew to look in the nearby woods because Crosania's mother had claimed she likes to take walks in the woods. The mother devastated to hear about her child, wants the murderers to be executed at once. Suspects are said to be "Scottie Martinez" and "Nick evans". Witness of suspects was Megan Staley. We'll have more information tomorrow on daily news.

I'm so fucked.
