The Truth Hidden Within

Am i mad?

  The doctor asked me several questions, which I just answered truthfully, I told him about the ghost, about my premonitions , about the vampires about the world that I was meant to believe in and how I felt like I was destined to save people. I didn’t  mention Jake though , just in case this was real , I could have dug him a bigger hole than I was already in which was way to far out of my depth. I hoped  and prayed so much that the doctor could cure me from the madness that was consuming me and eating away at me ever so slowly.

   Well, didn't work like I thought it would… nothing like I thought it would have at all.

It didn't get me anywhere but a cell.... hmmmmmmm...

Not fun.

 

  I was made to  stay in a mental cell overnight he (the psychologist) said that maybe if I stop and think what’s happening to me because of my imaginary world I would see sense.

But it still felt so real...............

It was so scary in a white padded cell all alone, only the sound of my teeth chattering with fear could be heard.

    What’s more, I knew it , they thought I was mental as well . I was wrong to have told mum and dad , I should have never told them, I thought they were going to help me and I thought it might have been easy for me to forget about everything that has happened , but it wasn't in fact it made everything twice as hard.

 

     It was now the 9thand I was getting even tenser as it the 10th was rapidly approaching.

   I had another, final premonition , I saw our world, it was completely empty, no living & no buildings , no people were on the planet at all…..  They had all been eaten by the bloodsuckers ( vampires) it was summer so I figured next year perhaps. Then I saw the flesh-eating vampires, fresh blood dripping from their pale chins. They were in the cold, caverness, darkened lair , and Jake was there as well ,  struggling by himself doing what he was made for,

Slaying, saving the world , undercover, like I was meant to .

He couldn't do it by himself . The vision showed that they were to strong for him, they were killing him and soon the whole world would be taken over by evil vampires.

 

 

 

     I was back in the cell but, my vision had not finished though. I heard the creepy ghost again , I felt her presence, then for the first time ever, I saw her, it was real. She was there, I was not going mad  , I defiantly saw her standing there with my own to eyes, she was around 20 , (although I am really bad at estimating age) had brown eyes and hair which was up in a neatly sprayed back bun .

 

  "Please, believe, we need your help. I am telling you now the  vampires are real , they got me last week, everything Jake said is true you have to try at least please what can you loose being stuck in here , stop our world from being taken over by THEM  evil things, don’t let there me anymore victims , Lucy Gurnham is next !" she pleaded to me .

 

Then she vanished into thin air leaving an old wispy draft in my cell.

 

I was now sure of it , no madness at all, seem our world is mythical ...... now I had a job to do but I was stuck in here , in the morning I had to be saving peoples lives in that lair.  I HAD TO SAVE LUCY!

 

    I slept on and off until morning on the uncomfortable bed  and waited until morning, for the doctor to come and decide the final verdict or my fate.

I had to get out ,as quick as possible,  there was no doubt about that otherwise everyone in the whole world would be eaten.

I had to lie, I know ,bad , but it had to be done otherwise I wouldn’t be writing this story now, would I ?

 

I opened my eyes slowly, I was so tired, I hadn’t slept most of the night , I was just to nervous about what was going to happen to me.

Maybe my lie wouldn’t pay off? What if it didn’t, I’d be stuck here forever………………….

  I glared around my cell nervously , glad not see the ghostly woman stood in front of me.

 Light filled my cell , I sat up , the amount of fear that rushed through my body was immense , even if I did get released I saw in one of my first premonitions that I was going to get bitten. The doctor took me to a plain , empty, freezing room with my parents, he asked me the most intimidating questions I’d ever heard. In my eyes, there was only one way to answer these questions if I wanted the world to survive from vampire invasion and that was by lying .

  I sat the nervously shaking my legs sat tightly tucked into the clear glass table, facing ones that at the moment I had so much anger and hatred for, the weird old wrinkly doctor and my parents. They sat there on the right hand side of the doctor on perched rickety wooden chairs my fathers arm comforting my mother whose eyes glistened, a delicate tear droplet trickled down her cheek. I could see they were scared for me, doubting whether I would be aloud to come home or not , but to tell the truth, I didn’t really want to go with them, after all they may have just ruined my entire life and caused soon devastation for the whole world.

I reassured him that I was imagining it, and it was very stupid I said that none of it exists , it was all in my head , and now I was over it, even though , we know they really do exist. My voice was very shaky, I was very scared that he might have noticed and then he would probably know I was lying.

 

After a few long drawn out hours of deliberationhe finally let me go home, I told my parents I was sorry for worrying them and messing them about……

 Let’s just say they weren't happy at all, awkward silence filled the car as we drove home.

  I felt really happy that I finally knew what was happening, hopefully that was the last of the questions to be answered.

 

Once we got home, I made myself a jam sandwich and wrapped it up for later that night in case I got a little peckish on my adventure that night. I packed everything that I believed to be essential, a pair of trainers , plasters, a small drink and a bulb of garlic to protect myself. Obviously my parents didn’t know about my little “sneak-out” and they wouldn’t find out either, so I had to do everything secretly, then I waited , waited , waited.

 

It was now midnight , the large clock in our dining room struck 12 times. My eyes froze wide open with fright  that was my Que. I wondered if that was the last chime on our clock that I’d ever hear……. But it would be everybody’s if I didn’t at least try to stop the bloodsuckers. I had to courage , and fast!

 

I leapt out of bed, and snuck down the creaky staircase whilst murmuring to myself "what will be, will be" over and over again like a resounding broken record, repeating and repeating. I tried to make it sound true to myself, that whatever happens will happen, but deep inside I didn't believe it, I couldn't see how, if I got hurt, this could be how is was supposed to be. Despite my doubts, I carried on repeating in attempt to beat my own doubts and thoughts and also to keep me calm without freaking out at the thought of what I was about to experience.
