It all started 11 years ago from today. I am 20 now and still have never forgotten that horrible, horrible night.
"Get your ass in here Jayde!" I flinched hearing my mothers angered voice through my closed door down the hall, and stood up letting the barbie I was playing with drop to the floor with a thud. Tears slid down my cheeks as I knew what was going to happen next. She was going to continue to yell in my face and smack me in a anger fit. This happened quite often to be honest. She was a slut dissapearing every night and coming back a drunk mess. The bright light in her eyes were no longer there and she began to fade. "Hurry up you little shit!" I walked as fast as my little 10 year old legs would let me. My blue dull eyes peered from the wall and i made my way towards her, stopping in front of her gaze as she breathed harshly clenching her teeth. "You!" She said pointing at me with a hateful look wobbling still a bit intoxicated. I sniffed, tears still sliding down. "You should be crying I can't believe you! Look at this place it's a mess!" I was confused. Everything was in place and there wasn't a spot of dirt. "I-i don't see any-" Crash! She threw down her vodka making it splatter on the ground. "See what you did! I'm going to have to punish you now." I don't understand I didn't do anything! She walked towards me her hand raised and a scowl on her face. I backed up my heart thudding putting my hands in front of me. SLAP! a sharp pain ran through my face as I fell to the ground. Even more tears slid down my face as I grasped my cheek in pain. "Clean this mess up. And no dinner tonight!" She kicked me hard in the side and left. The only sounds i heard were the taps of her heels as she left me there sobbing. still staring at the ground in a little shock I got to my knees sniffing while picking up the glass and getting a rag to soak up the vodka. That night I lay awake crying in my bed hugging my bear Ted. He was a dark brown Teddy bear with button eyes that had a solid black around them, squishy black claws three on each foot and hand, but the most strangest thing about him was a wide sewn smile full of sharp teeth. He wasnt just a little bear though. When no one was around and it was just me and him he would grow in size just a head above me. We played all the time having fun but then i met a kid a few blocks down and didn't always have time for Ted. One day i just got back from playing with Lucy my friend and felt bad for Ted. He must be lonely here without me. "Ted?" I questioned opening my door and closing it behind me. "Ted?!" I searched the closets and jumped on the freshly made bed throwing the blankets. Not there. I let out a breath laying on the bed staring at the ceiling. "I was hoping you wanted to play today
.." I smiled waiting for a reaction. I heard a bump under the bed. I knew he couldn't resist. Leaning over the side of the bed I peered under seeing the bear smile. I smiled back my hair surrounding my young face and reached under grabbing him. "I thought you were never going to come back." Ted with a sad tone he was now full size. My smile tugged into a frown as I hugged him and said a bit pained, "I was just playing with my friend for a bit, why would you think I wouldn't come back?" I turned getting pillows from the closet and I swear I saw Ted's face glaring at me. I turned back around and he still had a smile on his face. Strange i must be seeing things. Setting down the pillows for a game of Lava Floor I stood up and quickly jumped on a pillow. "Watch out Ted, lava!" He jumped quickly planting his stuffed feet on a pillow. We giggled having fun but there was something off about Ted, kind of sinister. Must be my imagination. I slipped trying to jump to a pillow but fell on the floor. "Are you ok?!" He ran over to me worried. I laughed and hugged him. "We both died oh no! Hahaha!" He smiled laughing too. That night my mother came back and was VERY angry. I was coloring in my princess book when my door slammed open making a hole in the wall. "Your going to get it tonight you Bitch!" She hissed through teeth and charged toward me. She slapped me over and over while tears spilled from my eyes. I dont know why i did it but i slapped her back immediately regretting it when she yanked me up by the hair. I was screaming in pain as my hair was being ripped out of my scalp and she threw me onto the bathroom tile kicking me over and over. "Next time you slap mommy it'll be worse." She walked away leaving me there in a bloody tear stained mess. I was in too much pain to go to my room so I just layed there looking at my outstretched hand in front of me. Soon enough my eyelids drooped as I was encased in darkness. THUMP! slowly getting up i rubbed my sleepy eyes seeing i was still in the bathroom and my body hurt like a bitch, and made my way to inspect where the sound came from. I stood infront of my mothers peeling white door hesitating if i should open it. Just as i thought about that something slammed into the door making me jump back. Deciding against everything I slammed the door open trembling. It was very dark and there was this horrible smell that filled my nose making it hurt consisting of iron, but I tried to find my way none the less covering my nose with my shirt to block out the overpowering smell. My eyes had slowly adjusted and I saw a slight outline of something on the wall. I couldn't see it very well so I tried turning on the light. Flipping it on the bulb made a spark of light and burst indicating that it had burned out. But in that slight second I was horrified of the image that made its way into my eyes. Something was not right here. There was this feeling in the pit of my stomach making me want to run away, but I didnt. The rain was slamming against the outside of the house and I could hear thunder roaring soon followed after by a flash of lightning. There hung my mother her wrist hammered in the wall with giant nails leaving trails of blood to flow down like rivers. That's not what petrified me throughout this was when i looked at her face. I couldnt help it, I vomited. Her mouth had been forcefully ripped open leaving the muscles in her cheek exposed and hanging in strings. Her eyes were no longer there and were replaced with big, black, buttons that had been sewn in with wire tearing her flesh making fresh streams of blood flow down. The worst part, was that her stomach had been cut open and all her intestines were gone. I didnt even want to imagine where they had gone. What kind of monster would do this?! I mean I was never very fond of her obviously but I would never want her or anyone dead! I let out a blood curdling scream that shook my little body. The lightning flashed again and Ted was standing next to her dead body smiling at me. "You can be happy now! Aren't you happy? You..should be smiling?" His smile turned into a frown not expecting me to be as horrified as I was. "You killed her!" I screamed at him anger and shock running through my body. "So you could be happy! Why are mad at me?" I slowly backed away tears falling like no end. Why did he do this? He's dangerous...a monster. "Get away from me! Go away!" He stepped closer his button eyes watering. "B-but I thought we were friends?!" I shook my head still stepping back. "Your not my friend...friends don't do this." He stopped walking a shadow covering his eyes. He smiled angrily his sharp teeth showing. He curled his clawed paws in a fist and cracked his neck sideways making a loud pop. "I didn't want to have to do this jayde but, you've left me no choice." He turned towards me his fur giving of the impression of being spiked by the dried blood. "You like games, jayde?" He said laughing insanely. "Of course you do! Now be a good little girl...and run. Ill give you to the count of...lets be fair, 40." He looked towards me bearing his teeth his button eyes bending in anger. "T-ted this isn't like y-you.." He growled and in a flash he was holding me by the neck restricting my breathing and squeezed tighter. "You never did know the real me, and I never showed you because I knew you wouldn't like it...they always do." He threw me onto the ground as I gasped breathing in as much air as I could. My heart was shattered in pieces as a felt a ping of pain in my chest. "HURRY UP AND FUCKING RUN YOU MOUSE!!!" He yelled at me in pure anger and hatred his face contorted into a living nightmare. I screamed running away hearing the faint sounds of numbers. Where would I hide? I know I couldn't outrun him but if I had any chance of living I would have to hide. "READY OR NOT HERE I COME!!" No way it hasn't even been 20 seconds! Now he just wanted to kill me and tear my pathetic 10 year old body to shreds. My heart pounded out of my chest as I ran for the only spot I could think of at the moment. Under my bed. Running to my room I crawled under wincing from the pain of my bruised body. "You can't hide forever~" He sang in a demonic voice. I could hear his claws scratch against the floor as he walked. "Ive got you now!" I closed my eyes waiting to be grabbed, but it didn't happen. I heard a closet door open and soon after, "Damn't." Relief flooded through me. As soon as i thought he was far enough away assuming by the crashes and thuds on the other side of the house I made a run for the front door. Breathing harshly I grabbed the doorknob pulling and jiggling it with what force I had. Locked. No! no! no! "Nice try kitten." My heart stopped as i turned around, but clumped something shining on the coffee table. A knife. "Looks like this is the end, for you at least! Hahaha!" I took this moment to dive for the knife I saw and jumped at him, stabbing him in his eye, or buttin i suppose. He screamed in agony holding his eye. While he was dealing with that i ran past him making my way to the only safe place I could think of. The basement. Seeing the door I opened it and closed it behind me locking it and blocking it with the piano. Trust me I have no idea how I pushed it. Adrenaline maybe? Gasping for breath I slid down the pianos side wiping the sweat from my forehead. There had to be something down here. Maybe a phone, or something. Turning on the light I held my mouth trying not to throw up, again."L-lucy?!" The person I once called friend was now dead hammered to the wall with giant nails piercing through her delicate wrist and ankles. It seems she went through the same horrifying stuff as my mother. Her eyes were replaced with sewn in wire buttons, her belly torn open bloody stuffing spilling out. There were other dead kids next to her. Hearing a loud crash I turned around fear overcoming my body and I was paralyzed. The door had been smashed open and the piano flew crashing down the stairs. You could see on Ted's face he was pissed. Screaming he ran towards me and I couldn't do anything my limbs not wanting to move. This was not the time! God damnt, trying to reach out a hand to grab something for fear of my life, I couldnt. Feeling the breath get knocked out of me Ted had tackled me. Putting his paws around my neck he began to squeeze and squeeze adding more pressure. I couldn't breath I tried struggling for air kicking and squirming and I begin to see black my eyes rolling back in my head. Ah I Don't know how long it had been after. I was laying down and I felt something cold sliding on my head. Remembering everything in a flash my eyes shot open and I began to struggle pulling against restraints I hadn't known were there before. "Let me out!" I yelled in fear and anger as everything was a bit blurry. I was being blinded by a light above me and couldn't move my head much. "Shhh shhh it's ok." That voice, Ted. Gritting my teeth everything became clear and that monster was leaning over my head wiping a cold cloth on my head. Well that explains the cold I was feeling earlier. "W-why are you doing this?" I stuttered tears running down my cheeks. I didn't want to cry anymore, my whole life I've just cried, but they fell. He didn't answer me instead he dissapeared from my sight and I heard the clattering of metal. Next thing I know he walks over to my knee and is holding this giant hammer. My eyes widened in horror as I looked to him pleading, "Ted no p-please don't do it don't do it!!!" The corners of his mouth turned up into a terrifying smile. His sharp teeth glinting from the light above me. I kept pleading over and over so fast it sounded like gibberish. The hammer rose, my eyes watching and then without hesitation he slammed it down. A painful loud crack was heard. Out of shock I screamed the after pain feeling like tons of needles being jabbed into my broken knee. "Ted please, please stop it.." I choked out over my sobs but he just growled and in anger yelled in my face loudly making my ears hurt, "I can't FOCUS BECAUSE YOU WON'T SHUT UP!" Turning around I couldn't see what he was doing all I heard was just that same clattering of metal to pick a new torture item. Sweat was dripping down my forehead and my knee felt like it was being ripped open by the devil himself. Looking down at my restraints keeping a eye on Ted I could see that there was no way out. Jerking back when Ted turned around afraid he would stab something into me I saw he only had tape in his hands. "This will shut you up." Slapping it onto my mouth he was right. "Alright, now let's see...ah here it is." Pulling out a very sharp surgical knife he slowly started slicing the skin down my stomach. This time I screamed so loud my throat went raw, but was muffled by tape. My eyes watched as he put a hand in my stomache so much pain that now, I couldn't feel anything. Pulling his hand out I saw that he was pulling my intestines out slowly, laughing all blood happy n shit. He saw me staring and ripped it out staring at me. "Hmm? What's this, you want a taste?" I couldn't protest or anything my mind was just...blank. He ripped off a piece of my intestine and shoved it in my mouth making me chew and swallow. I puked it back up all over his face. "AH fucking DISGUSTING!" Slapping me so hard my neck cracked. Wiping off his face he returned to his work. Getting some stuffing from death knows where he forcefully shoved it in til my belly looked plump and fat. Then he got the wire he used on my mom and friend and put it through a big needle and poked it through my skin to close my stomache. My skin begin feeling cold and it was getting hard to see. "Alright that'll do." I felt the restraints coming off and I was being lifted. Ted was carrying me and then I felt something cold and hard behind me...the wall. Ted held the giant nails he used on everyone so far and stabbed them through my wrist right through the vains, blood squirting out like streams of dark red kool-aid. Everything went blurry for a minute and when it went clear Ted now had a steaming spoon and shoved it under my eyeball gouging them out. This time I screamed so loud the tape came off and I started coughing blood. "SHUT UP!!" He yanked my eyeball from the socket and then did the other sewing on blue buttons. "Ah yes you will be an important part to my...collection hahahaha!!!" then...I woke up. I was in my bedroom like nothing had ever happened. Mom. Throwing the blankets off I opened her room in a panic. There she was, sleeping in her bed. No smell of alcohol.... strange. Well since this was a morning I made some cereal and sat on the couch turning the TV on. The news popped up showing one of the star attractive broadcasters "This is Diana Norman reporting to you live. Just in we had found out about a murdering case. Jeorge Martinez just a neighborhood friend went to check on his friend and her daughter to find the door open and no one there. We'll there was someone there, more than one. Dead in the basement and bedroom. At least 20 kids in the basement dead, one of them being Jayde Forum daughter of his friend Sarah Forum....." the rest was zoned out when I saw myself dead on the screen. Ted was real. Jumping up to turn around my house wasn't there...just fog. I tried walking into it hoping i would get somewhere. Just endless fog. So now im dead...I was really hoping that was just one fucked up dream...
