Sorrow, Love, Hope, and Horses

The Other Side

Cody's P.O.V

After taking a long jog through the woods, I return to my room. How could they think I

am betraying them? After all we have been through. I would rather die before I betrayed

my friends. And did they really say all that mean stuff about me? My heart broke into a

million pecies when she said that. None of them ever got depressed before? I actually

saved them. But none of that matters now. I'll soon be dead. My father hates me and my

friends despise me. Theirs no reason to be alive. I feel tears running down my face. I

feel broken. My father even said he was going to kill all of my friends right before my

eyes. How could anyone ever watch that? Or worse, do that. I could never ever kill

anyone, even my father. Maybe I should of never woken up when I was basically dead. If

no one wants me on this earth, then I shall leave. I get up and start to jog down the hall

toward the exit again.

I turn the corner and run into something. I go tumbling to the ground, and let me tell

you, that hurts like heck.

" ah, just the person I wanted to see." A voice said. I look up. Shoot.

" yes father?" I ask scrambling to my feet.

" why were you running?" He asks giving me a look that wasn't very happy.

" ah, ah, I wanted to stretch my legs. I feels great to be out." I lie. The truth was that I

felt sick. I still never recovered fully. My head hurts the most though. It feels like it got

ran over by a semi truck. Not a good image.

" oh ok. I just wanted to ask if you and the other boys wanted to start the newbies on

fighting. I want to see what they are made of."

" ah, I don't think that's a good idea-" I say as he cuts me off.

" great you'll do it." He smiles wickedly at me. " head up to the master room and the boy

are waiting their for you."

He gives me a shove. I start to walk towards the stairs. I slowly head up them. What

have I done? My friends can't fight. Well Chaser looks good, but the rest of them? I

worry the most about Genevive. I don't want anything to happen to her. I should

probably be mad at her since she ticked me off, but I'm just not that kind of boy. She

was the first real girl that I loved. Ugh. I screwed up so much. Now a few lives will be

taken because of it. I hate myself so much. I don't know what to do.

" hey Codes!" A voice yelled.

" Codes? Since when has it been Codes?" Another voice said.

" since like a minute ago."

" real nice..."

" ya. I know right. I just popped in my head."

" ready to go?" They ask me.

"Sure." I solemnly say. " who do I get to grab?"
