"So, how long will you be gone?" asked Veronica as she sat perched on my bed, looking at her perfectly, manicured nails. I shot her an annoyed look which she obviously didn't see at all.

"Why? I might not be back with all those 'legends' I replied putting air quotations around legend, she didn't even lift her head up.

"So I can have your clothes, if you don't come back can I have them? you actually have pretty decent clothes" she told me without a trace of worry In her voice, seriously? This was probably a code red on the dangerous rule.

"I could be dying and you probably wouldn't care" I grumbled under my breath as I put a pair of clothes inside a black backpack, enough clean underwear to last me for a week.

"Of course I would care!" she answered quickly and thrust her head up so quick it cracked which made me snort in laughter and her crinkle her nose. "Eww did you just snort? dude, that is nasty, you sound like a pigs' she retorted her face red because of the earlier incident.

"It's not my fault that I have an awesome way of laughing" I said over exagerated as I flipped my hair over my shoulder making her get a mouth full of hair, spitting it out she wiped her face with her other hand which was as well manicured, What was with this girl and being all well waxed and all.

"No, and go wash your hair, it doesn't exactly taste good" She responded her nose wrinkled in disgust, my face burned red with embarrassment. Good thing we weren't out in the open or else she would have done worse, I don't even get why we're friends all she does is bring me down.

It's because you're lonely, you have nobody else A voice whispered into my mind, I cringed in response. Whenever the voice in my head talked to me it either meant something good was going to hapen or she was giving me advice. It felt as if the voice in my head was someone who could phyisicaly talk to me if it could, like they could materalize out of nowhere. It would reach out to me to tell me something I needed to know or do.

Like I needed to go to Darkpass, the city where nobody ever came back. I wasn't scared at all, it was as if I was being called there instead. Going to Darkpass actually soothed me down instead of terrifying me.

"HELLO! DON'T IGNORE ME" Veronica shrieked at me making me flinch since it sounded so much louder than normal. Guess my hearing is getting better.

"What?" I snapped at her as she opened her mouth to answer, cutting her off. I grabbed another pair of clothes and stuffed them into my backpack angrily. How dare she? just yell at me for daydreaming?

"You weren't listening to me" she huffed out in response making me make a noise I've never made before, sort of like a growl. A growl? I sounded like a dog, she didn't even hear it making me surprised and all. I knew she was dense and all but not deaf. "So, I was saying. Chris and I almost got to third base" she winked licking her lips, moistening them. I crinkled my nose, how disgusting. I don't really know why but having sex seemed almost disgusting whenever I actually thought about it with someone, it didn't feel right at all.

"That's disgusting, I don't get you why don't you just wait" I told her angrily, I was getting angrier by the minute. I couldn't control my emotions as much as I used to. Probably going to start my period I thought.

"Are you an idiot? Being a virgin after I turn twenty is like being a goody two shoes" she said disgusted. I rolled my eyes at her, being a goody two shoes is worse than being a slut. "Ever since the meltdown everyone is trying to get pregnant as soon as possible" she told me with a shrug of her shoulder as again she examined her nails.

"That doesn't mean you have to fuck everything with two legs, you can save yourself" I told her honestly, making her shake her head.

"When will you learn?" she told me angrily throwing her hands in the air.

"I don't need to hear this before I even leave" I responded disgusted by her thoughts right now. She stood up quickly and made her way to the door.

"Well the  I'll just leave" she snapped back at me before she opened the door and slammed it shut with such force the only picture I had fell to the floor cracking the glass. I literally saw red as I strode over to pick it up. I didn't bother being gently or careful at all as I snagged the picture out of it.

I smiled lightly as I made my way to the little bed and sat there looking at it with longing.

My parents and brother stared back at me with smiles on their faces. We all shared the same black hair and bright caramel colored eyes. Wedged in between my parents I smiled at the camera I still had. I frowned at how they had disappeared.

They had gone to Darkpass the place where I was going, was that the reason why I was drawn there?

No, there is something else there. Someone else there. The voice whispered into my mind once again.

Someone else? who?

My parents had disappeared when the went there and Jack left soon after to look after them on his nineteen birthday. At the time I was only seventeen, and now it was two years later and he still didn't return. He even promised me that he would come back, but did he? nope. I learned not to trust someone when they promise, promises are meant to be broken.

I finished packing, I folded the picture up and put it into my pocket. I had on some shorts that went to my thighs and a jean shirt, my hair went down in loose waves. These were probably the best looking clothes I had, ever since they left I didn't have any money to get better clothes these days.

I checked the small alarm clock on my dresser and my eyes widened in realization, it was 4:00 and I only had a few more minutes until the train would take me to Darkpass. I would be the only one on that train, nobody before has gone on that train. well not anymore.

 I grabbed my small backpack and then my keys from the little apartment I could afford and walked out of the little house, closing it and then locking it. Even if I never did come back I woudn't want someone to just walk in, they could find my stuff that I didn't want anyone to see.

I took  deep breath and then walked off closer to the train station and farther away from the only place I've ever known as home. Nobody talked to me on the way there, nobody said their goodbye. I was practically the loner in this town the only reason they even talked to me because of Veronica. They wanted to talk to her so by talking to me they got a way of talking to her, a win win I guess since I wanted people to talk to me.

Once I got to the train station I dind't get a greeting or even a glance. For some reason there was always a train station to Darkpass. I don't have a clue why but it felt as if it were for me. I waited for a while, looking at the old town. The houses were so old, nobody knew how to build any since the ones who did know how all died in some way or another. Everyone experienced had died off for some reason, they didn't even bother teaching their children at all and when they did they only fixed their own house and asked for a lot of money to fix other people's houses. Money people didn't have.

The onyl greenery was off in the distance, and that greenery came from Darkpass.

"Train to Darkpass is now here, please board the train safely and keep all of your belongings with you" the manager said over the intercome and I picked up the backpack and boarded the train and sat down. I propped my feet onto the seat and leaned back getting comfy in here. "Please enjoy your ride and we will get there in a day" it said through the intercome and I smiled I would get there soon.

"Wait!" yelled out someone and then the doors started to close, and the person slipped through the doors with a squeeze barely fitting through. "Oh thank god" siad the person who had boared, a boy my age I had seen around before. He lifted his head up and saw me his eyes widening in surprise and then he smiled. "I guess we'll be traveling together"
