Her Stained Lips (GirlxGirl)

Chapter 12: Forsaken Ones

"Cursed one"
Am I?
What am I?

I looked towards the door that the maid went through, her last words ringing in my head. This marking on my back, is it really cursed? Everything that happened.. Was it real? Am I causing more pain for this household?

I looked down at my hands, clenching them tightly. I have to figure out what is going on. Whether or not everything that has happened to me is true. I kicked back the covers and slid my legs over the bed and pulled my boots on. I sorta already figured the door was locked or it was guarded.

I let out a breath and walked over to the window. I gripped the windowsill tightly putting my legs out, without thinking I let go. One would think it would be painful but honestly it felt like I was floating. I flipped my hair back and took off running, feeling the gravel on the soles of my shoes made me run even faster. I didn't know where I was going but I'm sure my feet will take me there.

I rounded a corner passing the old hangout for teenagers, loud music played throughout the place. A group of teenagers stood huddled around passing a cigarette around while laughing. I kept my head low and kept on walking. People stared at me, some saying insulting things. I pulled my hood up and ignored their horrendous words.

A group of people dressed in all black walked towards me. I kept my head down avoiding eye contact. But before I knew it one of them grabbed me by the collar of my shirt and threw me into a alleyway. I fell against a dumpster, I could hear my bones cracking loudly. The group of people continued on towards me. I bite my lip and looked at them.

"Hello, forsaken one"

I spit out blood at their feet and leaned up, "forsaken one? How cute"

They approached me and looked me square in the eye.

"Do you know what you are?"

"I don't know but I feel like you're about to tell me"

"You're a rare cursed line of poisoned blood"

"Oh great"

One of the figures stepped closer to me and picked me up by the collar of my shirt, turning me around and ripping my jacket and shirt off my back. The marking on my back glowed brightly. The people behind me dropped me and took a step back.

One of them offered me their hands, I looked up at them before taking their hand and standing up.

"Welcome to the forsaken crew"
