Clocks

xX-Dad came back home-Xx

I was laying on the puddle of my own blood. Malu chuckled and leaned beside me -So this is the junk the May has as a big sister- it said keeping its face hidden. I started crying slowly and screamed.

-SIS! SIS! WAKE UP!-

-H-Huh?!-

-S-Sis! Y-You're safe! Whew! I thought I lost you!-

-May? W-what happened?! Where's Malu?!-

-Malu? Oh he's such a dummy! I told him not to scare you because I loved you!. Hmph! I guess he's attracted to pretty girls like you~-

I lightly blushed -What the hay May?!- I stood up. -He told me he wanted to talk to you and I told him to not to! Sadly I guess he couldn't wait and creeped you out! Sowwy sis!- May slurred hugging me. I smiled -It's okay May-.

I heard the ticking again.

I decided to push them away -So uh, what time is it?- -It's 10:00 am. Oh and Dad came today!- she cheered.  -EH?!- -Yupy-ty-yup!- she giggled and ran out of my room. I quickly dressed up with jeans and a long-sleeved shirt. I ran downstairs and saw my Dad hugging May. But he had a very very very very weird look on his face. His smile was... creepy and uncomfortable.

I raised an eyebrow. May hadn't noticed this and kept hugging him. My dad noticed my presence and smiled at me -Hello Chris! Long time no see!- he called smiling at me. I felt weird but hugged him. -Hi...- I mumbled and pulled back. Mom came -John! You're back!- she said. I carried May in my arms as they hugged. -May... I feel something weird about Dad- I whispered to her. -Me too Chris- she whispered back.

I went upstairs to her room -Hey... I heard you and Malu talking yesterday-

Her small green eyes looked at my yellow ones -Oh really? You should've played with us! We were playing The Bloody tea Party!- she squeaked. I shivered again at that name -The Bloody Tea Party huh..? What exactly do you do in the game?- I asked. May jumped from my arms and landed feet first on the floor and she turned to me -Malu drinks blood and I drink red blood colored water! It's really fun! He says blood gives him some strength... I don't know! You should really come over tonight.- she rambled. I shivered again. And the ticks grew faster

-So I should come over? Ok- I said. She giggled. -Chris dear can you come downstairs! I want to talk to you! In private!- I heard my Dad call.

I felt something was wrong but yelled back an okay and walked downstairs. My father had a creepy grin plasted on his face. I had a suspicions look on my face. -What do you want to talk about?- I asked. He moved to me. -Hello dear, I've missed you- he said with a fake smile.

I frowned -What's up with that fake smile- I growled.

Something was horribly wrong

He smirked at me -The ticks are driving you insane are they?- he asked. I gasped quietly -You fucking know?! HOW?!- I yelled. He smirked more and went upstairs with my mom. It was midday and it was cloudy. Weird.
I walked past a mirror and it cracked. I jumped a little. I glanced at the mirror and looked at the figure behind me. -w-.. h-how..- I whispered. The shadowy figure walked to me and wrapped its hand around my mouth

-Shush now, little clock-

My eyes widened.
