Short Stories By A Short Girl

Perfect Eyes

I ran up to the door. It didn't ring, but I saw a shape in the window.

"Hold on, just let me check this, Sept." I called

"Hurry, October!" September whispered

I checked the door, locked. Okay, we're fine, as long as it's outside.

"October!! Help!! Something- Ahhh!!!" Sept screamed.

"Holy crap!" Emma screamed "September! October, something got her!"

"Did you see what it was? Emma! Please tell me you saw it!" I begged

Emma shook her head "I'm sorry, Oct."

"Oh crap! What is th-!!"

"Andrew!" Emma screamed trying to run toward her boyfriend.

I grabbed Emma around the waist.

"Emmaline!" I screamed using her full first name. "We'll find them."

That's when I saw those beautiful violet eyes staring at me through the darkness. Those Perfect Eyes. For someone who might possibly be killing, or have already killed my girlfriend, she had pretty eyes.

Emma must have saw them too because she got stiff and moved closer to me.

"October? Tell me you see them too..." She whispered, terrified.

Just then they disappeared.

"I saw them." I whispered back.

"Do you think we should-" Emma began, then passed out.

"Emma! Emma!" I screamed

"We are finally alone." A girl's voice said.

"Who?- Who are you?" I asked terrified.

"I'm the girl with the 'Perfect Eyes'" She said stepping out of the shadows "My name is Stella"

"What did you do with Sept and Drew? What did you do to Emma?" I screamed/asked

"Don't worry. This September and Andrew are safe and perfectly fine. And little Emmaline here is just asleep. She'll wake up soon. "Stella told me.

"Give me my friends." I screamed

"Can't do that, can we, Stella?" A man's voice asked.

"Not 'till I get what I want, Michael." she replied.

"What do you want?!?" I asked

"You." Stella and Michael said together.

"You can't have him!!!" September screamed.

"Sept-" I screamed.

"What are you going to about that, Little Girl? You're-Ahh!" Michael said, as Emma kicked him in his no-no square from the ground.

Emma stood up and put her foot on Michael's chest. I ran up and pinned Stella to the wall.

"Where is she?" I screamed at them.

"Basement." Michael coughed.

"Don't tell them!" Stella screamed "I still need him!"

"You need nothing from me. " I spat at her. "Come on, Em."

Emma and I ran down to the basement.

"Emma! October!" September squealed.

"Sept! Did they hurt you?" I asked

"No, I'm fine." She said "Just scared."

Emma and I walked up to the cage they had September in.

"I got this. " Emma said pulling a bobby pin out of her hair

She unlocked the cage and September pulled us both into a hug.

"I love you guys. " She whispered.

"Love you too." Emma and I whispered back.

This story does not have a happy ending, not yet.

"Wait." Emma claimed "Where's Andrew?"

Sept shrugged "I don't know."

Emma started crying.

"It's okay, Em. We'll find him" I assured her.

Just then Stella and Michael burst through the basement door.

"Where's Andrew?" Emma blurted trying to attack Stella and Michael, but Sept and I had her arms.

"Calm, Em." I commanded.

Emma relaxed. Then I tackled Michael, while Em and Sept grabbed Stella's arms.

"Where is Andrew?" Emma roared.

"We'll never tell-" Stella snorted

"Upstairs bathroom." Michael broke, coughing with my arm pressing against his throat.

"Thanks." Sept laughed.

Then we all ran up the stairs. I locked the basement door while the girls ran up to the bathroom.

"Andrew!" Emma exclaimed "Oh, how I love you!"

I walked into the bathroom, and saw Emma and Drew hugging. September came up to me and slipped under my arm.

I thought finally we were safe.

Boy was I wrong. The last thing I remember is everything going dark and September calling out my name.

THE END.
