Shadows [on hold]

Chapter 1

~pic of Jake~
~Jakes POV~

I opened my eyes to the sound of my alarm clock. I sighed and turned it off. I got out of bed and got dressed. I walked down stairs and saw that the lights were off and there was no one in the room. I walked over to the living room table and saw a note.

'Your dad, sister, brother, and I have gone on a vacation. We will be gone for a week, I didn't leave you any money, you should have job by know like your brother and sister. Try not to get into trouble and burn down the house
-mom'

I sighed. Of course they would do this. My parents don't care about me, all they care about are my brother and sister. My brother is a singer, one of the top 5, and my sister is going to the best college there is for upcoming models, and me, I've got nothing. I don't want to be famous in any way and my grades aren't even that good. I pulled out my phone and texted my best friend Jasmine.

'Hey want to walk to school together? My parents ditched me for a vacation with my brother and sister'

'Yeah'

I turned my phone off and walked out side and waited for Jasmine. When she got to my house she greeted me and we walked to school.

"So how have you been?" Jasmine asked. I knew she wasn't asking about how I was doing, she was asking about if I've killed recently. You see Jasmine is the only person that knows I kill. I don't kill people but I do kill pets and animals, it calms me. Surprisingly she doesn't really mind, she even told me that when she was younger she did the same thing.

"I've been good, I haven't felt the need to kill in awhile" I replied.

"That's good" Jasmine said smiling. We arrived at school and said good bye going to our classes. Nothing interesting happened during school, just the normal bullying. I walked out of the school and started to cross the street. Before I could cross I was pulled backwards and thrown to the ground. I looked up to see Ben the jock.

'I really don't need this right know' I thought.

"Hey guys, why don't we teach this loser a lesson" Ben asked his two snickering friends beside him.

"HEY STOP!" Jasmine yelled running in front of me.

"Oh so your little girlfriend has to protect you? How pathetic" Ben said glaring at both Jasmine and I.

"Why don't you just stop bullying Jake? He's done nothing wrong" Jasmine said.

"Fine, we will stop if you take his place. We need someone to bully" Ben said with a twisted smile as he walked closer to us.

"Jasmine run!" I said as I got up and grabbed her wrist. We ran and turned a corner. I pushed Jasmine into a narrow alley way.

"Stay there" I said quickly as I continued to run. Ben and his friends quickly caught up to me and began to beat me. I closed my eyes and just waited it out. After what felt like hours the pain stopped and I heard them walking away. After a few seconds I heard running.

"Jake are you ok?!" Jasmine yelled as she ran up to me.

"Y-yeah" I said. I suddenly started to cough on covered my mouth. I pulled my hand away to see blood. The moment I saw the blood pain coursed throughout my head. I held my head in pain.

"Hold on Jake I'll call my mom" Jasmine said as she called her mom.
