•Six• The New Recruits... (Part I)

{Tracey Stewart}

"Tracey you're grounded..." My father tells me as he gets ready for work the next morning.

I had this major headache and my stomach was pumped only six hours before. I place my head on the cool table and my dad slams my bowl down right beside me.

"Ow..." I groan.

"All I asked is for you to be a responsible young adult and you can't even do that. Dammit!" I look up and see my dad holding his hand.

"What's wrong?"

"I cut my finger on the stupid drawer, that it as soon as I get back home I'm fixing that crap."

As he walks past me to go get a bandage I smell something that makes my headache go away.

"What is that smell?"

I turn towards my dad and as he's coming back into the kitchen and my eyes go right towards my dads bloody finger.

I just stare at it and feel something pinch my teeth.

"Ow!" I run my tongue across my teeth and I swear I felt something sharp.

"Tracey if you want a ride to school lets go."

I hop down and grab my book bag on my way out. With the incident pushed to the back of my mind.

When I get to school I wave bye to my dad and walk up the steps.

My stomach and head no longer hurt but I was starving.

As I walk to my locker I see Cameron walk up to me.

"That party was so crazy, I heard like two kids died."

Click...

Click...

Click...

"Really?" I look around trying to find what was that clicking noise.

Click...

Click...

Click...

"Hey, Trace you okay?"

Click...

Click...

Click...

"Don't you hear that?" I look until I see a freshman down the hall clicking their pen while looking at an Algebra book.

I frown and hear the bell ring which makes me want to smash it into pieces.

"See you in class." Cameron waves off.

"Yeah, see ya." I get what I need from my locker and see only Theo and his girlfriend were in the hall besides me.

He leaves walking down the hall and I see his girlfriend turn my way and she's staring at me with a smile.

I blink and she was looking at her phone.

Wait did I just imagine her looking at me and smiling?

As we walk pass each other I hear her hum a familiar tune and the back of my neck throbs.

I rub it and continue my way to class...

I have 72 hours before Tracey dies so I need to get some good use out of her quick.
